After decades, they finally cracked the Empire's Psychic Link device, stripping it from its original network and re-establishing an internal network.

In this way, they only need to get these spiritual linkers from the Empire and transform them to allow them to have their own independent spiritual network without worrying about being discovered by the Empire.

However, they never expected that they would be found by the Empire in the end, and these people were sentenced to death by the Empire for espionage because they did not install a spirit linker.

The Empire has sent a clone clearance force to eliminate the nefarious group.

It was because of this that the clone had a chance to get his hands on the spirit linker.

Upon obtaining the linker, the clone immediately injected the linker into its body, copying all of the relevant information.

After the clearance troops left, a shell fired from the track leveled the lab.

And the clone who was injected with the spirit linker began to change gradually as the spiritual network was connected.

The imperial calendar is 2500 years.

The squares of colonial cities throughout the empire were already filled with people, all quietly waiting for the dawn of the new century.

The countdown numbers on the monitors around the square were shrinking, and people began to shout out along with the countdown.

“5！”

“4！”

“3！”

“2！”

“1！” Everyone excitedly shouted the last number, and countless fireworks shot out from the city's tall buildings into the air, and the sky was instantly illuminated by dazzling fireworks.

The crowd cheered in the square, and at the same time, in the outermost star system of the river system, which the empire named Xinli.

A strange device consisting of three large rings began to activate, and the three rings began to rotate irregularly around the center, gradually forming a visual sphere as the rings rotated faster and faster.

And the 10,000 unmanned Zeus-class warships hovering in these rings are gradually obscured by the rings.

"The conveyor is working properly! The energy supply module is working properly! ”

"The First Advance Fleet is functioning normally!"

"The teleporter starts countdown! 3！ 2！ 1！ "With the countdown of the various technicians heard in the mental network.

With a flash of light, the 10,000 unmanned Zeus-class fighters in the portal vanished.

Since the Zerg once dominated the entire universe, traces of the Zerg have been left everywhere in the entire universe!

There are countless river systems with dense "transportation networks", and these networks are the footprints left by the Zerg when they first crossed the river system.

The vanished First Advance Fleet flew along a line towards the Sinri River system, which was closest to the Xinli River system.

In less than half a day, this fleet had already crossed the void of millions of light-years between the river systems!

Ten hours later, the Empire's First Advance Fleet suddenly appeared on the outermost side of the Sinri River system.

According to the pre-set program of the ship, when the fleet arrived at its destination, it directly activated all the dormant chambers in the ship.

The dormancy chamber immediately began to indoctrinate the clones lying inside with false memories.

When the memory infusion is complete, the hibernation chamber activates the clone.

One of the clones opened their eyes and rose from their dormant chambers, somewhat confused.

It took them a while to gather their thoughts, they were the first pioneers sent by the Empire to this river system.

They had been flying for hundreds of years to get to this river system, and the reason why their minds were a little confused was because they had been dormant for too long.

Of course, this was all told to them by the Imperial officers in their memory.

I still remember that before they set off, the Empire told them that they would send fleets to this river system one after another.

After their departure, every year the Empire would send a new fleet to Sinri, and their role as an advance party was to lay a safe landing place for later troops.

At the same time, they have to clear the threat of the arrival of the portal.

Although the portal technology obtained by the Empire at the beginning was very expensive, it allowed people with consciousness to pass through the portal.

However, in order to ensure that no powerful civilization in this river system will be able to crack the portal technology through the wreckage of the portal, the Empire does not send ships with portals to this river system.

Only when the advance party occupies a certain territory in the river system and ensures that the river system is safe, will the empire teleport the ship with the portal to it.

At that time, the Empire will be able to send a steady stream of Imperial fleets into this river system and flatten this river system by force!

The First Advance Fleet had actually just arrived and had already been discovered by the civilizations of this river system.

However, due to the small number of warships that appeared, it did not attract too much attention from the Chinese Ming of this river system.

However, as a stable federation of multiple civilizations, each of these civilizations sent some fleets to the Empire's landing site to find out.

After each of these civilizations sent 10,000 capital warships, they turned their attention to other areas again.

The ships passed through the artificial wormholes erected in various star systems and began to rush in the direction of the Imperial advance fleet.

At this time, the Imperial Advance Fleet had just found a planet with relatively rich resources, and planned to be stationed as an advance base.

A base ship unfolds on the spot after landing on the planet's surface, and the rudiments of a base begin to emerge.

In the following time, the remaining nine base ships also landed next to this base one after another.

Soon a forward base of tens of square kilometers appeared on the planet's surface.

This base will mine the planet's minerals and build a repair yard to repair ships that may be damaged in the future.

With the arrival of the next advance fleet, the functions of this base will gradually begin to expand.

Eventually, it will become a fortress that integrates mineral mining, equipment manufacturing, warship maintenance, battleship building, clone manufacturing, and living in the city!

By the time the base was almost unfolded, the Empire's advance fleet had dispersed to several nearby star systems.

Little did they know that dozens of fleets were heading towards them through a network of wormholes.

A few days later, the Imperial advance fleet met this river system for the first time with the Chinese Ming.

A fleet of 10,000 warships of this civilization's main warship arrived in the star system where the Imperial advance fleet was located.

As soon as the two fleets met, they were separated by an entire star system.

"Who are you?" The opposing fleet sent a message to the Imperial advance fleet first.
