This crisis, from start to finish, was beyond the expectations of everyone onboard the starship.

Initially, everyone thought that Gu Qijue's Infinite Empire had fallen so far that the Supreme Leader had to personally receive refugees, so this Infinite Empire must not be much.

The true situation of the Infinite Empire remained unknown to everyone.

But the terrifying combat power of the Supreme Leader of the Infinite Empire was known to everyone aboard the starship.

After Gu Qijue arrived at the Emperor Flagship, he addressed everyone via the starship's broadcast.

"Fellow citizens, just now, our fleet encountered a Void Octopus while traveling through the cosmic void."

"The Void Octopus has now been completely repelled, and there is no need for anyone to worry."

"Once the war machines finish cleaning the battlefield, we will continue on our journey to the Desolate Star System where the Infinite Empire is located."

Gu Qijue calmly summarized the sudden incident with just a few words.

To Gu Qijue, the scenes that left everyone shocked seemed to be nothing significant.

This led Lingmi and HyunA to consider whether they should reveal their true identities to see if they could form a collaboration with Gu Qijue.

The war machines of the Infinite Group cleaned the battlefield with great efficiency, quickly collecting all valuable materials.

Once all the war machines had returned to the starship, Gu Qijue led the fleet to continue their journey.

Next, the fleet began wormhole jumps.

Throughout the journey, no one encountered any other incidents.

No one encountered incidents, but Gu Qijue faced two unexpected occurrences.

Emperor Flagship, Captain's Room.

Gu Qijue initially thought it would take several attempts to catch a big fish.

But what he never expected happened!

In the captain's room, aside from Gu Qijue, there were two beautiful ladies present.

Looking at the two in front of him, Gu Qijue couldn't help but speak: "Please introduce yourselves again, who are you?"

Lingmi and HyunA thought that since Gu Qijue had always stayed in the Desolate Star System, he was too isolated from the news and therefore didn't know them.

Since Gu Qijue made this request, the two had no choice but to introduce themselves again.

"Hello, Supreme Leader Gu, I am Lingmi, the chief scientist in the field of spatial transmission technology of the Celestial Essence Star Cluster Civilization."

"This is HyunA, the chief scientist in the field of weapon manufacturing of the Celestial Essence Star Cluster Civilization."

After Lingmi finished speaking, both of them removed their disguises, revealing their true appearances.

Upon seeing their true appearances, Gu Qijue was completely certain of their identities.

He immediately introduced himself: "Hello, Miss Lingmi, Miss HyunA."

"I am Gu Qijue, Supreme Leader of the Infinite Empire in the Desolate Star System, Vermilion Bird Star Cluster."

"At the same time, I am also a friend of His Excellency Tian Li and a collaborator in the Celestial Essence Star Cluster Civilization reconstruction plan!"

When Lingmi and HyunA sought out Gu Qijue to reveal their identities, they were worried that Gu Qijue might sell them out.

They were ready to escape at any time, but to their surprise, Gu Qijue turned out to be on their side!

Soon, they contacted Tian Li through the Emperor Flagship.

After speaking with Tian Li, they no longer doubted Gu Qijue's identity.

However, both Lingmi and HyunA were very amazed by Gu Qijue's audacity.

The big figures of the Vermilion Bird Star Cluster and Qiongqi Star Cluster were all looking for Tian Li's whereabouts.

Yet Gu Qijue dared to hide Tian Li in his own territory at such a time!

They didn't know that having Tian Li in Gu Qijue's territory was nothing significant.

Because Tian Li had been taken by Gu Qijue from right under the noses of the Vermilion Bird Star Cluster and the Qiongqi Star Cluster.

After several space jumps, the fleet entered the Desolate Star System.

Using their equipment, Lingmi and HyunA interfaced with the Emperor Starship to analyze and scan the external environment.

Then the two confirmed that the resources in this place were indeed very scarce.

Typically, cosmic great rift zones are like this.

In a place where resources are severely lacking, the emergence of a quasi-star system level civilization is nothing short of a miracle.

Not long after, the Emperor Flagship entered the Divine Desolate Continent, ultimately landing outside the Infinite Group Headquarters.

Under Gu Qijue's arrangements, Tian Li, Tian Hao, Lingmi, and HyunA quickly met.

Infinite Group Floating Base, Celestial Dawn Laboratory.

Gu Qijue and the group of five began a meeting here.

Before the meeting, Gu Qijue disclosed all the publicly available intelligence of the Infinite Empire to Lingmi and HyunA.

There was so much information that Lingmi and HyunA couldn't go through all of it at once, so they could only focus on the key points for a quick review.

After both had reviewed all the intelligence, they gained a deeper understanding of the Infinite Empire and the Desolate Star System.

Lingmi spoke up: "The biggest problem for the Infinite Empire now is the lack of energy and raw materials."

"Without sufficient energy and raw materials,"

"even with the four of us here, it's like trying to make something out of nothing."

"However, with Supreme Leader Gu's abilities, this issue can be easily resolved."

"In the cosmic void, most unclaimed resource stars can be contested by the Infinite Empire."

"Additionally, we can target the interstellar pirates."

"Interstellar pirates are the public enemies of all civilizations, outcasts that everyone wants to eliminate."

"The gains from combating interstellar pirates can often be substantial."

Lingmi's method was similar to the suggestion Tian Li previously made to Gu Qijue.

Both advocated attacking the interstellar pirates.

However, Lingmi added a point, which was to participate in the competition for other resource stars while targeting interstellar pirates.

Originally, Gu Qijue intended to take the elite forces of the Infinite Empire and engage in a few profitable ventures.

But as they spoke, he suddenly received a notification from the Vermilion Bird Empire on his communicator.

He and the others were required to proceed immediately to the Bi Fang Battlefield for the second trial.

After the three trials, the Desolate Star System was required to dispatch combat troops to the Bi Fang Battlefield to participate in the battles.

Gu Qijue glanced at the communicator, then spoke to Tian Li, Tian Hao, Lingmi, and HyunA.

"Next, I will have my adopted son Gu Yinling assist you all in completing various activities."

"If you have any issues, you can consult with my adopted son."

The identities of the four from Tian Lai were not suitable for public exposure.

They could only operate from the shadows, carrying out various activities.

Sending Gu Yinling, who could handle matters independently with strength, capability, and wisdom, clearly could greatly assist the four in further developing and constructing the Infinite Empire.

Before Gu Qijue left, Tian Hao took the initiative to speak:

"Your Excellency the Leader, since Lingmi and HyunA are here, we can upgrade and transform the Emperor Flagship."

"Let the Emperor Flagship become an E-Tier Cosmic-level Battleship."
