The huge object was a castle-like existence.

It looks like the old mottled, purple and black castle has countless strange symbols and patterns on the outer surface, slowly twisting and swimming along a special frequency, and a faint black mist lingers around, covering the entire castle with a thin haze, like the palace of the god of death in myths and legends.

In the depths of the castle, a mysterious and powerful will is slowly awakening, and the terrifying and suffocating pressure slowly and inexorably overflows.

“…… Mission...... Activation...... Macro Starry Sky ...... Scanning, Tasks, ...... Comparison ...... Began to patrol ......" obscure consciousness intermittently.

The planet-like castle trembled slightly, then chose a direction and began to slowly accelerate, moving towards the outside of the Night Star Ruins.

Around the Night Star Ruins, messages containing surprise, ecstasy, fear, and nervousness were passed back and forth, and those manned and unmanned observation bases sent this shocking news back to their respective civilizations at the first time and as quickly as possible.

After more than 20 years of silence, the great murderous place in the depths of the Night Star Ruins: Witchthorn Castle has finally awakened again and started another patrol of the Star Sea World!

……

Shenyi Daxing District, Jiufanglou headquarters.

Due to its proximity to the center of the galaxy, the stargazing platform with a diameter of thousands of kilometers resembling a giant octopus wanders in the beautiful starlight, and the translucent appearance of the sky blue looks particularly mysterious and majestic.

In the center of the gimbal, which is the highest and most open area, there are nine milky ivory towers standing quietly.

That's right. It's an ivory tower!

The ivory of an ancient blue-blooded mammoth from the Tianyuan galaxy has been meticulously carved by a special craftsman. Piece by piece! And inlaid with a variety of gorgeous gemstones, so that the tower body in the starlight under the illumination of beautiful, mysterious and noble!

Just because this ivory can secrete a strange aroma. It has an excellent nourishing and restorative effect on the spiritual power of the wise profession! Cultivating in it all year round can completely achieve twice the result with half the effort!

Of course, due to the high price, this kind of ivory item has always been only enjoyed by first-class wealthy people, and as for hunting millions of ivory to build such a huge project, only a super organization at the level of Jiufang Building has the capital to play like this!

At this moment, a beautiful and youthful girl in white, who was about seventeen or eighteen years old, hurriedly walked into one of the ivory towers with a shining gem in her hand, and rose lightly to the top floor with the help of a maglev platform. Dozens of probe beams swept over her along the way, but they didn't cause any reaction.

“…… Ye Lan. What's the news? In the quiet room at the top of the tower, a warm and elegant voice with an inexplicable charm slowly came.

The girl named Ye Lan bowed slightly outside and said softly, "Teacher! I just received an urgent report that the Witchthorn Castle in the Night Star Ruins is moving again! ”

"Movement? It seemed that the same thing was said a while ago, but then it seems that nothing was noticed, so could it be different this time? The voice asked.

Ye Lan immediately said: "Yes! Witchthorn Castle has fully awakened, and has left the Night Star Ruins and begun to enter the Star Sea World! ”

“……”

The voice inside froze, and only after a few seconds did he say, "I see." Come in and talk! ”

Ye Lan gently pushed open the door of the quiet room, and inside was a huge space, a middle-aged man in purple with gray temples was sitting quietly in front of the crystal viewing window, his eyes deep and bright. With a timeless temperament that floats out of the dust.

If Qin Huang was present, he would definitely recognize that this was the great wise man who appeared at the Holy Alliance meeting that day: Mu Zixuan.

She saluted lightly to the teacher, and then turned on the light brain projection with smooth movements. A huge four-dimensional three-dimensional light screen appeared in the room.

In the background of the dark void, a cold and old, mysterious castle with a strong inhuman atmosphere is drifting. A group of deep-space exploration ships are tracking and monitoring from afar.

Occasionally, the castle itself would freeze, and the faint black mist shrouded outside would distort and change. The castle as huge as a planet will disappear from its place without a sound!

By the time it reappeared, it would be light-years away!

"Has its cruising route in the Star Sea World been deduced this time?" Mu Zixuan looked at it for a while, and asked.

Ye Lan replied, "Its current position is still in the Dark Savage Star Sea, judging from the direction of its jump, it is different from the route it followed when it appeared last time!" At present, sixteen possible road maps have been preliminarily deduced, and the highest one is expected to be the first stop after entering the civilized world, the Jinluo Star Region! ”

"Next is the Hongwu Great Star Area, the Lanqi Great Star Area, and then the ...... Will enter the Cambrian Star Zone! The time is estimated to be a month later! ”

Mu Zixuan looked at the star map with a solemn face, silently estimating and deducing various possibilities in his heart.

The first few major star regions are all the territory of alien civilizations, so there is no need to worry. However, the Cambrian Star Region is where the headquarters of the Star Luo Heavenly Palace is located, and there are tens of thousands of human countries and power organizations, including the Holy Xinlan Empire, so they must be treated with caution.

"Things seem to have gone a little way out of the way!" After a long time, he sighed softly.

"Teacher, what's the problem?" Ye Lan blinked and asked curiously.

Mu Zixuan smiled and said, "For the time being, I can't say, this thing is too mysterious and weird!" Go tell the other wise men, and a meeting will be held in an hour, and this matter will have to be discussed! ”

"Yes!"

……

Qin Huang didn't know what had happened to the distant Night Star Ruins for the time being, and he was now busy taking over the territory left by those forces.

In this round of expansion, a total of ten separatist forces' fleets were defeated and disabled, and all the territories added up to fifteen and a half provinces, with a total of 357 star fields and a total population of more than four trillion! In this way, they are all included in their own sphere of influence!

After this battle, the territory controlled by the "Binglan" legion really exceeded twenty provinces, which was equivalent to half a galaxy-sized territory, and in terms of territory alone, it was already a large force in the Haoyue Star Sea! If it comes to the strength of the military, it is not too much to say that it is the power of the top few in the Haoyue Star Sea!

However, the entire Haoyue Star Domain is more than three million light-years wide, and this point of territory is indeed not too big. The fifteen separatist forces that Gu Yuanfeng promised to help him subdue have already exterminated ten at this moment, and the remaining five still have seven and a half provinces of territory, and the military strength is not satisfactory, and it is only a matter of time before they are completely conquered.

After receiving these territories, Qin Huang immediately extended the selection and cultivation plan of Source Energy cultivators to all provinces! And renovate and set up more barracks and schools in preparation for a larger expansion plan!

In addition to the great abundance of population and resources, another benefit of the vast territory is that a large number of heavy industrial facilities are back in the control of the central government, as long as there are enough people and a certain amount of start-up capital can be injected to make them work again and provide strong support for the imperial power!

After statistical inventory, there are a large number of military and civilian industrial manufacturing bases on the thousands of planets in this land, except for a few special equipment, which can produce almost all types of weapons and ammunition in the human world, including battleship manufacturing bases and high-purity energy spar smelting centers!

It is a pity that in the past ten years, those short-sighted separatist forces in the local area have smuggled and sold a lot of these valuable industrial equipment in order to covet small profits, which made Qin Huang very angry, and hanged those initiators after the interrogation!

In particular, the various rare resources produced on these sites are extremely sought-after strategic materials in the countries of human civilization, which have been predatory mining by those guys for ten years, and then bought by the big men outside at a fairly low price, and some have even been deceived into signing long-term mining and supply contracts!

Of course, Qin Huang would not accept this kind of blatant blood-sucking practice on the imperial organism, and since the fall of these separatist forces, all foreign supply contracts will be nullified! The personnel of many foreign companies and factories stationed in the local area are all detained, and the resources of the empire will not be allowed to leak out even more!

Such a practice would undoubtedly offend people very much, but Qin Huang didn't mind at all! Those greedy guys have plundered the resources of the empire for a whole decade, and sooner or later this account will have to be repaid by them!

"How much military power do we have available now?" He asked Meng Binglan.

She replied, "Not to mention, at least it will not be a problem to occupy the surrounding provinces again, and besides, we are expanding our army in a year's time, and there will be enough legions available in a year at most......"

According to what she said, the military strength of the "Binglan" legion has always been three Death Star ships, 400,000 fleets, and 20 mecha legions. But in fact, because he inherited the core legacy of the empire, he has a real power far beyond the imagination of the outside world!

Two years ago, the "Binglan" Legion had a total fleet of 800,000, as many as 50 mecha legions, and seven Death Star ships! And they all belong to the most elite Imperial Guard Legion, which is just a regular military force, not counting the hermit elders who can be worshiped by the royal family of the superpower, as well as some powerful killer features.

In the past two years, Meng Binglan has been sparing no effort to expand the army, and now it has 1.5 million warships, hundreds of mecha legions, and the number of Death Star ships has reached twelve! It is already the veritable number one force in the Haoyue Xinghai!

Not to mention that Qin Huang was still sparing no effort to help the "Binglan" legion expand its strength with the help of the resources of the Holy Xinlan Empire, coupled with the secret support of the Star Luo Heavenly Palace and the Chaolu Fanghua Society, their military strength was expanding every day!

"Now that the territory is not small, when do you plan to ascend the throne and correct your name? My Majesty? Meng Binglan rubbed his face and asked softly.

“……”

(PS: It's finally time to ascend the throne!) (To be continued......)
