ALL NOVELS' LIST | Chapter List: The Last Commander of the Red Alert XXX-----XXX-----XXX-----XXX Feathered Warbler Empire, Feathered Warble

Feathered Warbler Empire, Feathered Warbler Star.

"Your Majesty, rescue signals have been coming from various planets recently. They are facing a massive Zerg infestation. According to the current intelligence, almost one-third of the Empire is dealing with Zerg."

The voices of courtiers echoed in the Grand Hall, and many faces showed unnatural expressions.

Zerg, the hostile species to humans, shouldn't be related to the Feathered Warbler Empire. After all, this was a Large Galaxy that was supposedly sealed off. It should be impossible for Zerg to enter or exit.

"Could it be brought by the Red Alert Empire? They found an entrance from somewhere. According to our intelligence, the Large Galaxy where the Red Alert Empire resides is definitely not within the scope of our Feathered Warbler Empire."

After years of exploration, the size of the Feathered Warbler Empire was well known. It couldn't randomly have new territories appearing. Even the Desolate Starfield, temporarily abandoned due to lack of resources, had its boundaries.

The origin of the Red Alert Empire had always puzzled them. Such a powerful empire, unheard of before, seemed to have sprung out of nowhere.

After extensive investigation, they finally discovered that the Red Alert Empire initially appeared near a Desolate Starfield close to the Borderlink Star.

They couldn't confirm whether the Zerg appeared because of the Red Alert Empire, but if these Zerg weren't dealt with, the Feathered Warbler Empire would be in jeopardy.

In their records, during a past era, Zerg had caused significant trouble to the Feathered Warbler Empire. At that time, the entire power of the Empire was mobilized, and it took at least tens of thousands of years to eliminate all the Zerg.

They never expected that, after such a long time, Zerg would reappear.

"If we concentrate our forces to deal with Zerg, what about the Red Alert Empire?" a courtier suddenly asked.

Everyone fell silent. They knew that if the Red Alert Empire learned that they were diverting forces to deal with Zerg, they would likely take advantage of the situation to attack their front lines. The entire Empire would then be vulnerable.

"In my name, directly contact the Emperor of the Red Alert Empire. I want to talk to him face to face!" declared the Feathered Warbler Emperor.

The courtiers looked at each other. This seemed to be the only solution. Only if the Emperor personally intervened could they temporarily prevent the Red Alert Empire from taking action. After all, compared to the Red Alert Empire, dealing with the Zerg first was of utmost importance.

Soon, this news reached Su Chen's ears. Su Chen found it strange, "The Emperor of the Feathered Warbler Empire wants to meet me?"

"Yes, Commander. Our people in the Feathered Warbler Empire have discovered a massive insect tide, likely due to the Zerg issue. They want a temporary truce with us to focus on dealing with the Zerg threat," Ju Ling explained.

Su Chen rubbed his chin, considering that this situation presented a rare opportunity for the Red Alert Empire, but the issue at hand was the Zerg.

Since the Zerg on Earth2 had been cleared, Su Chen had almost forgotten about their existence. According to his information, the Feathered Warbler Empire was a peculiar place—a Large Galaxy surrounded by a dangerous zone that prevented them from leaving or anyone entering.

If that was the case, how did the Zerg enter?

"Could there be channels other than this Space Channel?" Su Chen couldn't help but wonder.

Suddenly, he remembered something, "By the way, how is Black Veil's mission going?"

Initially, when Heart Demon Clan Black Veil sensed the birth of a new Heart Demon Clan within the Feathered Warbler Empire's territory, Su Chen, to prevent her idling around, sent her on a mission. Now, it seemed like the time was ripe.

Thinking about this, Su Chen contacted Black Veil directly, "Black Veil, how is that Heart Demon Clan doing?"

After a few seconds, Black Veil's voice came through, "Commander, there's something strange about this Heart Demon Clan."

"What's strange about it?" Su Chen became interested.

"It's a Heart Demon Clan born within a Zerg, and that Zerg itself seems to have developed self-consciousness."

Su Chen raised an eyebrow. He was well aware that only Zerg Hive possessed self-consciousness within the Zerg. The rest were just worker drones, maybe with some basic intelligence at best. Self-consciousness was something exclusive to the Zerg Hive.

Once a Zerg developed self-consciousness, it became an individual entity with thoughts of rebellion against the Zerg Hive.

A Zerg that gave birth to a Heart Demon Clan—now, that was intriguing.

"Tell me, have they done anything?" Su Chen asked.

"When I first found them, the Heart Demon Clan was manipulating that Zerg, gathering strength, planning to rebel against the Zerg Hive. The ultimate goal is to unify the entire Zerg and become the supreme ruler of the Zerg."

Su Chen's mouth twitched. This Heart Demon Clan had quite the talent for painting grand visions. All Heart Demon Clans seemed to share this trait. After all, didn't Black Veil once manipulate a Winged Clan, nearly eliminating the Winged Clan Mother Star?

"What about that Zerg?"

"While the Zerg developed self-consciousness, it's like a blank slate. Without the birth of the Heart Demon Clan, it might have taken a long time for it to rebel against the Zerg Hive. But with the presence of the Heart Demon Clan, it immediately realized that it shouldn't be controlled entirely by the Zerg Hive."

Su Chen didn't need to be told; with this Zerg and Heart Demon Clan, things were bound to get complicated in the future.

After thinking for a moment, Su Chen said, "Black Veil, is there any way to directly kill that Heart Demon Clan, and you take its place?"

Originally, Su Chen wanted Black Veil to subdue the Heart Demon Clan, but upon careful consideration, having one Heart Demon Clan, especially Black Veil, should be enough. Having more wouldn't be very useful; it might be better to eliminate it.

"If it were the old me, I wouldn't have thought this way. The birth of a Heart Demon Clan is very challenging, and their numbers in the entire universe are limited. However, this is Commander's order, and Black Veil will act immediately," she replied.

After about ten minutes, Black Veil's voice came again, "Commander, I have replaced that Heart Demon Clan, and the Zerg hasn't noticed."

"Very good. From now on, do what you do best: manipulate this Zerg to rebel against the Zerg Hive. It would be best to eliminate the Zerg Hive directly."

Black Veil was delighted; this was her specialty.

"Commander, rest assured. In less than a year, I'm sure I can take down the Zerg Hive. You know, back then, I spent several years and almost took down the Winged Clan Mother Star." Black Veil's tone was quite self-satisfied.
