After that, the Southern Sacred Fleet Group obediently withdrew without doing anything.

After the JF-17 Legion dispatched a T3 Silver Rat-class light interstellar stealth reconnaissance ship to track the enemy for a while, it withdrew after confirming there was no threat.

On the other side, Zhao Chen led his Dragon Fleet back to the Qian family's slave planet.

The fighting here has come to an end.

Whether it's this slave planet or that starport, they are all now under Zhao Chen's control.

"Most of the Qian family's fleet has been wiped out."

However, a small portion of the Qian family fleet escaped, heading towards the Qian family's main star system.

"Commander, should we pursue them?" Chu Xuan asked Zhao Chen during the video call.

Chu Xuan naturally wanted to eradicate the Qian family, the culprits, but simply destroying their fleet wouldn't be enough to vent her anger.

"Of course we will settle the accounts with the Qian family."

You can run away from the monk, but you can't run away from the temple.

"Arrange for all interstellar warships to rest in place for three hours and replenish their combat supplies," Zhao Chen instructed.

"Yes." Chu Xuan's eyes lit up, and she immediately began to arrange for the rest and recuperation.

Zhao Chen glanced at the compiled battle reports.

In this battle, more than 2,800 interstellar warships of the Holy Lance Corps were annihilated, and more than 200 interstellar warships were captured.

They annihilated more than 290 Qian family interstellar warships and captured more than 30 interstellar warships.

In addition, there are prisoners from the Qian family and the Holy Lance Legion. Because the number is large, the count is still being tallied.

The Xiaolong Legion suffered no losses of interstellar warships; the only damage was to interstellar drones and interstellar fighters.

The number of casualties is less than one hundred, which is negligible.

"Commander, we have scanned and inspected the internal system data of the T4 Retribution Angel-class heavy interstellar battleship wreckage that we brought back," Secretary Lilith's holographic image reported to Zhao Chen.

Upon hearing this news, Saint Cana, who was standing next to Zhao Chen, cast a concerned glance at him.

"Make a copy of all the useful intelligence data," Zhao Chen said.

"yes."

Secretary Lilith quickly sent a copy over.

Zhao Chen barely glanced at it before tossing it to Saint Cana beside him.

Saint Cana looked at Zhao Chen in surprise as she took the palm-sized data device.

"You might find the contents of this place useful," Zhao Chen said, completely unconcerned about their contents.

If there's anything truly important, Lilith will tell herself about it. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

The vast majority of the content is probably just clues about some cooperation between the Holy Radiant Empire and Qin Xiaotian's side.

"Did you find that thing?" Zhao Chen looked at Lilith, asking about what he truly cared about.

Lilith shook her head and said, "Based on some data and intelligence we've collected..."

In that starport, the representative sent by Qin Xiaotian handed a data box to the commander of the Holy Lance Corps.

We searched the flagship wreckage but found no data boxes.

However, during our scan of the starship's internal network, we discovered that ten minutes before its destruction, an encrypted file was sent out. The direction and location of the receiver indicate that it was sent by the Southern Sacred Fleet that arrived at the scene.

"Can you restore the sent content?" Zhao Chen asked.

Lilith said, "The data deletion is so thorough that it cannot be recovered."

Zhao Chen wasn't too disappointed; he had expected this.

He looked at Saint Cana beside him: "Now you understand why that Holy Lance Legion was completely abandoned, right?"

The Southern governor got what he wanted.

Unfortunately, Commander Heller might have survived if he hadn't rushed to transmit the data to the Southern governor.

But if he transmits this thing out, then he'll have no chance of survival.

Saint Cana understood Zhao Chen's meaning.

This so-called data is the value of the Holy Lancer Legion!

The Holy Lance Corps has been almost completely annihilated, and since this item is no longer of any value, it is indeed unnecessary to go to war with the Wraith Corps for it.

Furthermore, that data was probably very important, and after weighing the options, the Southern governor chose to get what he wanted and then return home.

"What kind of data could that be?" Saint Cana asked, frowning.

"Zerg technology, like the technology to control the Zerg mothership... or... the technology to open wormholes in space!" Zhao Chen squinted, his tone somewhat cold.

"Open a wormhole! Does your Prince Yan have that kind of technological capability?" Saint Cana was startled.

The Zerg are not only a threat to the Star Empire, but the Holy Radiance Empire has always been very wary of their existence.

After all, there have been several important interstellar Zerg attacks in the history of the Holy Radiant Empire.

The appearance of wormholes in the universe has always been random and uncontrollable.

"I'm not sure, but the several unusual wormhole events that have occurred in the Starry Empire make me suspect that Qin Xiaotian has this technology."

"Otherwise, it wouldn't make sense for him to control so many Zerg motherships," Zhao Chen speculated.

Saint Cana fell silent. She looked at the data disk in her hand and checked the information on it, but there was basically nothing important.

At most, it shows that the Saints family really did have a deep, unethical deal with Qin Xiaotian.

But this did not have much impact on the Saints family.

"When you get back, you'd better try to persuade your Imperial Senate."

Zerg technology is unreliable; it's best not to research it.

Moreover, it was Qin Xiaotian who gave it to you... You really dare to take it for research?

"Do you really think Qin Xiaotian would willingly give you such good technology?" Zhao Chen reminded him at this moment.

Saint Cana looked at Zhao Chen in surprise; she hadn't expected this man to remind her of something.

"The Holy Empire is a potential enemy of mine, but I am even more aware that the Zerg are the more threatening enemy."

"At least in wars between our races, after defeating the other side, we don't slaughter them all, causing their extinction." Zhao Chen recalled the battle with the interstellar insectoids.

That battle... was too oppressive; I really don't want to experience it again.

"Wait...you mean after I go back?" Saint Cana suddenly realized, and looked at Zhao Chen in surprise: "You mean you're letting me go?"

Zhao Chen shrugged and said calmly, "If I don't let you leave, do you expect to continue eating and living here for free?"

That won't do!

But if you'd like to join my Dragon Legion, I might consider it.

As he spoke, Zhao Chen looked Saint Cana up and down and smiled slightly: "It just so happens that I feel I need a few more secretaries."

How about it? Think about it?

Working for me is a very happy thing.
