A Core Ship From The Start Chapter 937

“If we don't do this, humanity will go extinct.”

Duanmu Huai shrugged his shoulders, withdrew his gaze, and looked toward Jiezi, who also raised her head to meet his eyes.

“If this is fate, wouldn't it be better to quietly and calmly accept it?”

“The Tribunal does not care about fate, as far as the Tribunal is concerned, as long as humans can survive, nothing else matters.”

Duanmu Huai stared at Jiezi and spoke indifferently.

“To lose one's humanity is to lose much, to lose one's beastliness is to lose everything–humanity has survived in this world not by fate, but by their own strength. No matter how cruel, brutal, despicable, or shameless the means, as long as humans can survive, then it doesn't matter. Conversely, no matter how noble or kind, if humans cannot survive, then it is all meaningless.”

Having said this, Duanmu Huai lowered his head and leaned close to Jiezi's ear.

“To be touched by this and believe that humanity has maintained its dignity and nobility even in extinction is nothing more than a simple self-comfort. Aside from feeling good about oneself, it serves no other purpose.”

“Uh… ”
Hearing Duanmu Huai's response, Jiezi blushed, lowered her head, and dared not speak. At this moment, Aikute's voice came through.

“Uncle Judge, Captain Tashiro is calling.”

“Put it through.”

“Yes.”

Soon, the screen flickered, and the next moment Captain Tashiro appeared on the screen. Seeing Duanmu Huai, he too chuckled softly.

“It's been a while, Mr. Duanmu.”

“Is everything ready?”

“Indeed, this will be the largest war in human history. To be honest… I'm even a bit nervous.”

“Being nervous is fine, just don't cause any trouble. When do we depart?”

“In ten minutes.”

“Understood.”

After saying this, Duanmu Huai simply stood on the bridge with his hands clasped behind his back, contemplating the vast and boundless universe before him. Aikute watched him carefully, then spoke up.

“Um… Uncle?”

“Hmm?”

“Currently, the Tribunal Fleet has gathered less than a third of its forces. Is it okay to go directly into combat at the center of the Milky Way? The enemy's numbers probably won't be less than the Reapers.”

This time, the main force consisted of the Tribunal and the Cosmic Frontier Army, totaling twelve thousand warships–of course, the vast majority belonged to the Tribunal.

“Plot kill is like this, we'll see how it goes, but protecting the Black Hole Bomb takes top priority.”

“Understood.”

Although Aikute wasn't clear on what Duanmu Huai meant, Duanmu Huai knew that this was essentially a plot kill mission. What players had to do in the game wasn't to thoroughly eliminate the Cosmic Monsters like the Star Union, but to protect the Black Hole Bomb. As long as the countdown ended and the Black Hole Bomb exploded, the mission would be considered complete.

Therefore, although Duanmu Huai didn't have additional warships at his disposal, if it was just about ensuring the safety of the Black Hole Bomb… he felt it was still achievable.

Or to put it another way, there was no choice even if it wasn't achievable, as after the battle against the Reapers, these were all the warships the Tribunal had left to use.

“Time's up.”

“Open the Subspace Pathway.”

Duanmu Huai raised his hand to issue the command. For safety reasons, he didn't let these warships make another subspace jump; instead, he chose to use his own fleet to open a Subspace Pathway directly into the center of the Milky Way. After all, the Black Hole Bomb was too large, and it would be troublesome if it attracted some problematic entities during a subspace jump.

“——————”
The next moment, everyone saw the space in the deep universe in front of the Tribunal's flagship begin to tremble, and then turned into a huge, vortex-like transmission channel.

“This is the Tribunal's technology…”

Staring at the Subspace Pathway before him, Captain Tashiro sighed, then lifting his head, his expression became incredibly resolute.

“Depart!”

No one marveled at the brilliant scenery inside the Pathway; in fact, they didn't have the energy to, for as the fleet passed through the Pathway and returned to the real world, all they saw was pure white.

“Is this the center of the Milky Way?”

Mary, clutching her notebook, stared wide-eyed out the window in surprise–she was used to a universe that was pitch-black or dark with the brilliance of stars, deep blue. But here, it was pure white, not like the light from an incandescent lamp or a mere color. Black intertwined with white, and the further forward she looked, it felt as if all other colors were eradicated, leaving only black and white. Even just standing there, the scene before Mary seemed like watching a black and white movie.

“This galaxy in this world is like that.”

Duanmu Huai shrugged his shoulders, saying nothing more, and Mary glanced at him curiously upon hearing his words. Before Mary could speak again, suddenly a broadcast sounded.

“Attention all!”

At that moment, Captain Tashiro's voice emerged.

“90 minutes remain until the plan enters its final phase. BM3 unit will begin its second contraction. In the 56 minutes and 32 seconds before the Inner Explosion starts, we must defend the core at all costs. Then, as the third contraction begins, the entire fleet will jump together to exit the combat zone, leave the Orion Arm, and the operation will be declared complete! The survival of humanity will be decided in this battle. We must triumph, over and out!”
