Li Hao knew he was on the verge of losing control, and he couldn't resist it.

If he created an irreversible disaster himself, no matter what the logic was, he would collapse. And once a person with such power became unscrupulous, the damage would be immeasurable.

If it really had to come to that, Li Hao would make a choice.

"Dean, I want to go on a long trip, a vacation, a long break." Li Hao said to the dean, his backpack already packed. "It might take a while."

"Go, take care of yourself." The dean had many more wrinkles on his face. Time really flew. He touched Li Hao's head.

"Take care of yourself too. If anything happens, just find Zuo Xiaotang. That little fatty has been freeloading here for years. Might as well make him useful." Li Hao laughed.

Saying goodbye to the dean, he didn't say goodbye to the little rascals. Those little guys were too annoying. He hopped on his little motorcycle and called Tianxun. "Boss, I'm going away for a while. I'm taking a leave."

"Oh, for a long time?" Boss Wang's voice seemed to reveal reluctance. He was careless; he should have settled the account first, but the guy was a hero returned from the battlefield, after all. He couldn't be completely heartless.

"Yeah, for a while. Thank you for taking care of me for so long." Li Hao was also a little emotional.

"Ahem, Little Li, don't be so polite. You're making me nervous. Remember, no matter what, Colorful Pizza is always your home. Be sure to come home!" Boss Wang urged. Even if he was going to fly away, he should come back and settle the account first.

"Thank you, Boss. Boss, I'm taking the motorcycle."

"Ah, that's not allowed in principle, but this time... okay, it's company property. I'll put it on your account first. Relax and combine work with leisure to work better. Young man, be strong. The road ahead is still long," Boss Wang said.

Hanging up Tianxun, Li Hao started the little motorcycle. Although he didn't know how many owners it had, it still had plenty of power. Feeling the wind and enjoying the scenery of Tianjing, he felt comfortable.

Ding-dong...

Li Hao smiled. They're here, always so punctual. Let him see Blee.

A Staff Sergeant leads a team to perform the Anthem Mission, accumulating 999 levels of Staff Sergeant merit to be promoted to "Probationary Sergeant Major." Becoming a Sergeant Major allows one to command a certain number of Star River Warriors for legion combat. At the same time, the civilization they belong to will also receive contribution points. In addition to the right to know, they also gain the right to advise. One of the two Star River Warriors who came out of the Kepler Ring Spaceship reached the Sergeant Major level. Dealing with the promotion of low-level civilizations, one Sergeant Major is enough. Such missions are actually noble missions, with high merits and low difficulty.

From the situation of humans, one can get a glimpse of the situation of the Celestials. There are many twists and turns inside.

Probationary Sergeants and Sergeant Majors will be transferred to official positions upon graduation.

————

At this time, a large nautilus spaceship was parked in the orbit of Messier. The leader of this operation was Gannymede Dirac, a Celestial "Probationary Sergeant Major" from the Ozir Empire, born into the Dirac family, a high-ranking noble family in the Empire. This was a great existence inherited from the Galactic Empire era, possessing an incomparably noble soul imprint. Gannymede's team had a very strong sergeant lineup: 9 Celestial warriors, one Strong殖 (Qiang Zhi) Clan insectoid, one Chacks mechanoid, and one Shadow Wraith. They could handle most emergencies. Plus, with 200 official outstanding warriors from the "Judgment Anthem," solving the problem was a sure thing.

However, the mechanoid crew members staying on the spaceship had lost contact with the ground. The orders the crew received were to wait for further instructions. Although they had intelligence, the mechanoids' adherence to rules was top-notch. They would not take action until the pre-set crisis time was triggered. But it was clear that the light frequency in the mechanoid crew members' eyes was a bit rapid.

At this time, a fierce battle was taking place in the mining area. Debris from combat flying shuttles was floating everywhere, and the entire mining area was shrouded in a strong magnetic storm. The Star River Warriors had been completely wiped out. Gannymede Dirac's handsome face was completely distorted, and the Celestial's proud eyes had lost their luster. His strength, which he prided himself on as the strongest of the younger generation, was vulnerable in front of the enemy.

They had been tricked. This was not some Wraith mutation at all. That Wraith was controlled. A Void Creature had appeared here. This was not a C1-level disaster; it was at least a B-level disaster. It was not something they could resist at all. What was even more hateful was that all signal transmissions had been cut off by the Void Creature. This kind of monster would grow rapidly after absorbing living beings, and it was the Star Alliance's most feared enemy.

The Star River Warriors had all been drained of their souls and turned into puppets. The Celestial sergeants who were holding the rear had some ability to resist, but as soon as the Celestial armor on their bodies shattered, they were immediately grabbed by tentacles and sucked into dried corpses, falling one after another. The tragic situation completely collapsed their fighting will.

The insectoid's Strong殖 (Qiang Zhi) flesh body resurrection ability was like a snack in front of this Void monster. It only struggled for a few seconds before turning into a pool of blood. The Wraith's abilities were pure delicacies when encountering Void Creatures. It could be said that the Shadow Wraith, who was free and had almost no weaknesses, feared Void Creatures the most. This was also why they were willing to submit to the Celestials. The Celestials could provide them with protection. Gannymede was the strongest of them all, but he only lasted for a while before he was covered in injuries. The Dirac family's dignity made him absolutely unable to be devoured by Void Creatures. A strong desire to win burst out with his last bit of strength, dodging the Void Creature's Void Lock, and the long sword in his hand slashed out a dazzling light, severing the tentacles, but it was nothing to the monster. They quickly regenerated. A huge energy cannon was fired from the single eye, hitting Gannymede directly. The Zhou Li (energy) shield shattered instantly, but the armor on Gannymede's body was obviously different from the others. It was not shattered, but the terrifying power still knocked him unconscious instantly. Once he was caught by the Void Creature, he would eventually become nourishment for the Void Creature.

Compared to other species, Celestials were a delicacy for Void Creatures, second only to Wraiths.

This Void Creature exuded a purple light and had a range of more than two hundred meters. It seemed huge, but its movement speed was very fast, and its unique "Void Lock" was simply a nightmare for living beings. Only the mechanoids were not affected by the Void Creature's soul shockwave. The mechanoid caught the unconscious Gannymede in mid-air and ran wildly all the way. Gannymede was his Sergeant Major, the captain he swore allegiance to. For the mechanoid, this was faith. Abandoning faith was equal to violating the mechanoid's survival law. The other warriors were using their lives to buy time for the two.

However, the high-speed flying mechanoid suddenly paused. The mechanical eye flickered, and the body made a strange creaking sound. The body froze in the air. The power core desperately urged energy, but it didn't move at all. "Gannymede, I've been caught. I can't fight for you anymore."

With his last bit of strength, he threw Gannymede out. Gannymede, who was in mid-air, was awakened and looked at the tragic situation before his eyes, his eyes widened in fury...
