It was the border trade hub of the Tai La Empire, the first small satellite system that Sarna conquered after invading the Tai La Empire.
At that moment, Sarna's fleet had already gathered there.
However …
Compared to the last time they appeared here, there were more than 40 billion less warships. The once huge fleet was now only 6.8 billion warships.
The entire command system was in complete chaos. No one could contact Sarna even though her ship was right in front of them.
In the end, the few surviving commanders had no choice but to contact Arno.
-----
Looking at the report and various information that Sarna's fleet had just sent, Arno quickly realized that there was definitely a big problem.
"Reply to Che Yina. I authorize her to immediately send the assault team to board the ship. At the same time, connect the assault team's command system. I want to watch the entire process!"
"Yes, General!"
'What happened?'
Looking at the adjutant who left to carry out his orders, Arno frowned and fell into deep thought.
What he knew at the moment was that after the enemy announced their surrender, Sarna suddenly issued an emergency retreat order.
The strangest thing was that only 6.8 billion warships successfully retreated in the end, and 99% of them were the warships that were at the edge of the fleet. As for the warships in the fleet, only 112 warships were retreated …
Furthermore, all 112 warships could not be contacted!
It seemed that he could only wait for Che Yina to forcefully board Sarna's warship to find out!
"General Arno, the order has been relayed. Commander Che Yina has begun to arrange the assault team. The operation is expected to begin in one minute!"
"At the same time, the assault team's command system has been connected."
Following the adjutant's operation, dozens of images suddenly appeared in the bridge.
Some showed the assault team's vital signs, some showed the omnidirectional cameras that the assault team carried, and so on. In short, the entire command system was placed in front of Arno.
Soon, the assault team had gathered and boarded the assault ship at the spaceport. The entire operation then officially began.
About ten minutes later, hundreds of assault ships arrived at Sarna's warship. The well-trained assault team operated the assault ships to attach themselves to the hull of the warship and used tools to start cutting the hull.
The process was not complicated. It was purely a violent cutting, but it was rather time-consuming. After a full half an hour, the first assault team to complete the cutting appeared.
At that moment, Arnaud had already zoomed in on the image of the small team. As the commandos entered the battleship, his expression began to turn serious …
Just as the assault team entered the warship, the first thing they saw was a few crew members lying motionless on the ground.
One of the commandos immediately squatted down and began to check.
"His vital signs have disappeared, and there are no external injuries!"
"Let's get to the bridge as fast as we can!"
Che Yina's voice came from the captain's helmet after the team member had just finished checking the three dead crew members who had fallen to the ground. She then ordered the members of her team.
Along the way, there were crew members who had also lost their vitality and collapsed on the ground. Even some of the plants planted on the ship had lost their vitality.
Inside the entire warship, there was not the slightest trace of life. It was simply like a ghost warship. This caused every member of the assault team to feel an inexplicable palpitation in their hearts.
Finally …
After a few minutes, the 28-member team arrived at the bridge.
Hiss …
The moment they entered the bridge, everyone sucked in a breath of cold air.
This huge bridge with hundreds of people was now the same as outside. Everyone was lying on the ground or in their seats.
"Captain, these people here have no vital signs!"
"Captain, me too!"
"Same here!"
...
Soon, the commandos who had spread out to check all reported.
As expected … Just like the rest of the warship, everyone was dead and there were no external injuries.
'Wait … Where's Commander Sarna?'
"Captain, find Commander Sarna. She's still alive … She's still alive!"
Just as the captain of the assault team thought of Sarna, one of the commandos who was checking at the front of the bridge found that Sarna still had vital signs when he checked the helmsman's control panel.
Immediately, he shouted excitedly.
The captain dared not hesitate and immediately ran toward Sarna. Along with the commando team's view, Arnaud, who was also watching the situation, also became nervous. His eyes were fixed on the image of Sarna, who was lying motionless in the helmsman's seat!
"Her vital signs are very weak. She needs to be sent to the healing pod immediately!"
"Quick, go and check if the healing pod on the ship is still working properly!"
Hearing this, the captain immediately ordered.
After all, if Sarna was sent to another warship for treatment, it would take at least ten minutes.
Based on the current situation, other than the crew members who were all dead for some reason, the warship itself did not suffer any damage.
"Captain, everything in the healing pod is working!"
One of the commandos performed a self-check on the healing pod in the warship's medical room and quickly got the answer.
"Everything is normal and can be used!"
"Quick, pass the investigation to the other teams. We'll send Commander Sarna to the healing pod immediately!"
"Yes, captain!"
Immediately, a few commandos carefully lifted Sarna and quickly went to the teleportation device in the warship.
With a flash of white light, 29 people including Sarna disappeared on the spot and directly arrived at the medical room through the light teleportation system.
Seeing this, Arnaud finally realized why only a few hundred warships in the inner area of the fleet withdrew …
Although he did not know what happened that caused the deaths of the crew members, Arnaud was sure of one thing. High-level dark energy users seemed to have some resistance to this sudden situation.
As for the hundreds of warships that escaped, Arnaud had already obtained the information of all the crew members.
Obviously, these hundreds of warships all had one thing in common, which was that there were Level 8 or Level 9 dark energy users.
"Inform Che Yina to immediately send the assault team into the remaining warships. Find the high-level dark energy users on the warships as soon as possible and confirm if they still have vital signs. Do everything possible to save the dark energy users who still have vital signs!"
"Yes, General Arnaud!"
Arnaud knew very well that if he wanted to know the truth, he could only wait until Sarna or the other surviving high-level dark energy users woke up …
Only then would it be possible!
