Chapter 136 - Chapter 536

 Even though Lin Kexin and Sofia had the exact same commanding style, this did not mean that they were only rash and impulsive.

On the contrary, they paid more attention to the details of the battlefield. Otherwise, how could they always win by being reckless?

In truth, Lin Kexin's attention to Sector 19 could be said to be a coincidence. She was simply unconvinced as to why the 7th Fleet could suppress the insectoids so perfectly. Thus, she brought up the tactical footage of Sector 19 to take a look.

However, he had a feeling that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong for a while.

However, Lin Kexin had always trusted her instincts. Even if she could not figure out what the problem was, she did not let it go. Instead, she kept thinking about it.

It was only when the insectoids created spatial chaos in all of the defense zones that Lin Kexin finally understood what the problem was.

The insectoids in the other defense zones had filled up the entire defense zone, pushing forward without any gaps. Only in Defense Zone 19, the insectoids had concentrated their forces in the center and did not deploy any troops in the outer regions.

Correspondingly, the defenders of Defense Zone 19 had also concentrated their forces in the center, about one light year away. Only a small number of warships were deployed in the outer regions to guard them.

When Lin Kexin discovered the source of this strange feeling, her first reaction was …

The insectoids had purposely attracted the defenders to the center of the defense zone, laying the foundation for the rest of the insectoids to launch a sneak attack!

Although this was her first reaction, the problem was that this was an interstellar war. Ever since they had become a level 5 civilization, sneak attacks had become an impossible tactic.

The reason for this was that the universe was too vast, and with the advancement of technology, the detection methods had become more powerful.

Take the Federation's space radar for example. Its precise detection could reach several light years away. If it was only a rough detection, it could even reach tens of thousands of light years away.

Under such circumstances, how could the insectoids hide and achieve the goal of a sneak attack?

Unless there was a brand-new superluminal method that could render all detection and interference systems useless, it would only be possible!

Just like now, the Federation had the means to seal off the Vita Defense Line, preventing the insectoids from opening up nests on or behind the defense line. Thus, Lin Kexin had never considered the possibility of an insectoid sneak attack.

But it was obvious that he had been careless!

As the insectoids had once again created spatial disorder, the Federation was unable to use space-type weapons to pass through the region of disorder and directly attack the insectoids behind. Furthermore, there were no insectoids in front of the region of disorder for the time being.

Thus, just like during the sentry battle, the entire Vita Defensive Line entered a temporary ceasefire state.

However, Lin Kexin in the Luoshen Ship did not stop because of this. Instead, she mobilized all kinds of detection devices, including space radars, to focus on the non-central area of Sector 19.

Just a moment ago, she discovered that even if the first three AU of every defensive zone had fallen into spatial disorder, the nineteenth defensive zone was not completely affected. After all, the non-central areas of the defensive zone were not attacked by the insectoids, so there was no spatial disorder caused by the insectoids.

Perhaps, in Lin Tian's eyes, this was not a big problem. If the Zergs really went around the central area and attacked from the surrounding non-chaotic areas, he would immediately detect it.

In short, Lin Tian had never considered that the Zerg could launch a sneak attack!

At the same time, Lin Kexin was also frowning. Even if her sense of unease was getting stronger, even if she used all kinds of methods to investigate those areas, she still could not find anything.

"How could there be nothing? Could the insectoids be invisible?"

Wait, invisible …

"Quick, immediately send the 101st Special Fleet to Sector 9!"

"Yes, Commander!"

Lin Kexin suddenly thought of something, as if she was in a daze, she immediately gave the order.

Invisible, perhaps the insectoids really were invisible?

The thought that flashed through her mind became clearer and clearer.

"However, even if the insectoids can hide from radar or even sight, they can't hide the energy in their body, right?"

Lin Kexin's eyes were still staring at the virtual interface in front of her as she muttered to herself.

However, if they wanted to scan for energy sources in a large area, they could not do it over a long distance like space radars. This was also the reason why Lin Kexin sent the 101st Special Fleet.

One reason was because the fleet was fully equipped with all kinds of equipment. Another reason was that as a special fleet, they even carried a large number of zero-point particle missiles.

Therefore, even though it was only a small fleet of a million warships, its actual combat power was definitely stronger than most medium fleets, and could even approach the level of large fleets.

Through hyperspace travel, the 101st Special Fleet only spent ten seconds to reach Sector 19.

"Immediately order the fleet …"

"Commander, I received a communication from the commander. Should I connect it now?"

"Damn it, they really know how to pick the time. Connect it immediately!"

"Yes, Commander!"

As the communication was connected, Lin Tian's figure instantly appeared on the bridge of the Luoshen.

"Lin Kexin, what are you doing?"

"Moving the fleet out of the sector without orders. Don't you know that Sector 7 is the most important?"

Looking at Lin Tian's expression, one could tell that he was a little angry.

Even though it was only a million warships and did not affect the overall situation, Lin Kexin's actions without orders was a little too much.

"I don't have time to explain to you right now. Just wait on the side!"

"If it turns out that I'm wrong in the end, you can punish me however you want, but for now, shut up!"

Facing the somewhat angry Lin Tian, Lin Kexin was not afraid at all. She directly retorted.

Then, she ignored Lin Tian's somewhat ugly expression and turned to continue giving orders to the command team.

"Order the 101st Special Fleet to perform energy detection. The target is all paths not blocked by space disorder!"

"Yes, Commander!"

On the side, the gloomy Lin Tian suddenly thought of something. He was not stupid, he just overlooked this possibility.

Now, after hearing Lin Kexin's order, he suddenly reacted. His anger instantly dissipated and was replaced with a somewhat nervous expression. His eyes unconsciously stared at the tactical projection in front of Li Lizi, at the 19th Defense District's tactical projection.

Half a minute later, the 101st Special Fleet completed the preliminary scan and sent back the results.

On the tactical image, the originally empty 19th theater of operations was instantly flooded by

countless red dots.

Among them, the front of the red sea …

There was only 2AU left to the defensive line!
