nemy attack detected, all personnel to battle stations and prepare for combat!"The broadcast voice repeated twice before stopping, but the alarm continued to blare.The ripples were almost an unconscio...Ripples looked at Melvin's serious face and knew that the 718th unit, through the decrypted content, had understood the reason for the unusual fighting methods of the Oktevians.

"Colonel Melvin, what trouble have we gotten ourselves into"

The Ministry of Communications just intercepted a message from the Octarians. They are planning to launch a second wave of attacks on XZ9 defense line, which is being defended by Unit 718.

And there's also a message that the Oktevorians have emigrated from their home planet, and now a large fleet of ships is heading towards the sector where the Alliance is located.

After hearing Melvin's words, Ripples realized that things were more complicated than she thought. She ultimately chose to send the decrypted content that Xiao Liu had broken to the other party. After all, this wasn't her own affair; she had only grasped a part of the initiative.

Colonel Malvern, this is part of the encrypted data I've deciphered from the intel brain. Based on my analysis, the Oktovian homeworld has been invaded and they are unable to repel the invaders. They have been forced to abandon their homeworld and now intend to fight the Alliance to the death.

"And according to your recent message, it's highly probable that those ruthless invaders will follow the Ocotevians into the sector where the Alliance resides. Then our problems will be even bigger."

As the ripples were spreading, Xiao Liu had already sent the latest news to Melvin through an encrypted channel.

Melvin was in the 718th Regiment's Tactical Command Center. After receiving a message through an encrypted channel, he only had time to skim it before his face darkened.

Colonel Melvin, I suggest we reinforce as soon as possible. We cannot allow the Octorians to break through our defenses, especially with even more formidable invaders following behind them.

Your suggestions will be considered by headquarters. Before that, you need to prepare your defenses and resolutely prevent the enemy from breaking through our lines.

Yes, sir!

The ripples immediately replied.

After the video call ended, Ripple began to arrange a new line of defense. This time, she placed the black hole bomb outside the front lines, willing to do anything to stop those entity invaders.

Melvin, based on the enemy database downloaded by a sixth-grader, has already deciphered some of the information. However, some encrypted parts haven't been cracked yet. Now, Ripple directly sent the message to them, making them admire Ripple's efficiency while also becoming more interested in her AI.

"Captain He's very efficient. If her decryption is accurate, then how should we respond to this new enemy We've never encountered an invader like this, one wearing the skin of another."

Melvin is struggling because he doesn't have enough information to respond effectively.

"Let's report what we know to the First Army Command and request support. We don't need to pretend to be stronger than we are."

Major General Lauren of the 718th division issued the order directly.

Yes, Captain!

Once the frontline message was relayed to the First Army's headquarters, the commanders convened a tactical analysis meeting on the Star Network. As the commander who had received the intel, Ripple naturally attended the meeting.

The attendees were present at a highly classified meeting, with holographic projections displayed within the conference room. As the lowest-ranking member present, Ripple sat at the very end.

General Erol Norls of the First Army appeared in the meeting room at the last moment.

"Everyone, this emergency meeting is regarding the invasion of the Octovian homeworld by an entity known as the Consciousness Infiltrator. This is the most unique enemy I've encountered since becoming a Federation General. You all have the latest intel – after reviewing it, I hope you can provide me with an effective battle strategy."

Erol's stern visage swept the room, his purpose for calling the meeting immediately clear.

The ripples slid across the data in front of her, essentially the same as what Little Six had deciphered. She looked at it again carefully, then started to ponder how to deal with this type of enemy.

Now, tell me your thoughts. How do you think we should fight this war

Erol asked bluntly.

First, we absolutely cannot allow the Oktovians to breach the Federation's defenses. We must not give any opportunity for an entity invasion.

Next, find a way to eliminate the consciousness invaders.

Third, launch a comprehensive counteroffensive to completely eradicate this consciousness entity.

Melvin spoke first, after all, he was the commander who first came into contact with the invader's information and had been researching them for some time, having developed his own ideas.

"Good, that's the general idea. How do we put it into practice"

Eroll continued to ask.

“General, the First Army's frontline is stretched too thin. We've been fighting the Ocotvian for so long, and our numbers are dwindling. Now they're using reckless tactics. It would be best to reinforce us with the Second and Third Armies.”

I agree with Snow's proposal, the defense line must not be broken!

What if the Oktevsians, after their next evolution, become carriers for consciousness invaders If the Oktevians attack, it means consciousness has entered the Federation. This must be prevented at all costs.

"Yes, that's the premise, and the alliance must also develop a device to detect invaders as quickly as possible. Just like the Oktevians determine if they are invaded through changes in magnetic fields, our physiology is different from theirs, we need our own way of discerning it."

Once the most difficult identification problem is solved, then we can move on to the next stage of eliminating the invaders. At that point, Ocotetvis's data will be of no use to us.

The discussion reached a bottleneck here, after all, the key point is how to eliminate the enemy.

What is your opinion, Lieutenant He Lianyi

Admiral Erol directly named Ripple.

When Ripples heard her name, she immediately stood up.

"General, I want to ask first, has our legion sent anyone to infiltrate behind the Octuvian forces and investigate why they've gone on this frenzied attack against the Alliance"

After hearing ripples' question, Eroll tapped the table with his finger before opening his mouth.

"We dispatched three ships into enemy territory, but one has gone missing. The other two haven't sent any messages back, though they haven't been lost."

"General, I dare to guess that the missing spaceship has likely been found or destroyed by the enemy. As for the other two ships, they could become a gateway for consciousness invaders to enter our Federation."

Ripple laid bare her speculation.

"Captain He, what is your basis"

Marvin immediately asked.

"The Oktevsians have been fighting our federation for so long, they haven't gained anything cheap, and they've even had their home stolen. Although they withdrew some Oktevsians, who can guarantee that these people haven't been replaced by consciousnesses

"

They fought tooth and nail with the Federation's elite on the front lines, but made no headway, leaving themselves in a precarious position of being attacked from both sides. So they will definitely resort to a diversion tactic, luring their enemies into the Alliance star sector, giving them a chance to escape.

The ripples of his words fell silent, everyone was a high-ranking commander, they all understood this truth.he white flower tightly held in her hand. She felt very uncomfortable inside. She didn't need to think about it to know that this was the original owner's emotions.She raised her head again, looking a...
