After several minutes of intense turbulence, the cabin suddenly calmed down, and this calmness brought a soothing tranquility.

Qin Feng noticed Xu Jia's hair floating, and some small components around them slowly drifted into the air.

"Have we arrived?" she asked.

Qin Feng nodded. "I think so."

The carrier separated from the ship, having completed its mission, drifting into the distant space...

But the mission of the Arc Star was just beginning. A large amount of white gas spewed from one side of the ship, and a huge ring-shaped structure on the outer hull began to slowly rotate, gradually increasing in speed, generating powerful centrifugal force.

The 12 colonization ships adjusted their posture, set their course. They needed to orbit one-third of the Saitan orbit, then engage full power to propel the Arc Star out of the Saitan orbit quickly.

This process would take about 20 minutes.

Once the gravity stabilized inside the ship, people began to release their safety restraints and rush toward the only small window. They all wanted to see what outer space looked like...

Xu Jia also wanted to see, pulling Qin Feng into the crowd.

But how could her frail body compete with those tall men? There was simply no way to get to the front, which frustrated her to the point of stomping her feet. In the vastness of space, they could see the sun partially obscured by the Saitan Star, which appeared as a sandy-yellow planet due to its surface being nothing but sand.

As Qin Feng was observing this scene, he suddenly noticed a flicker of light, emanating from the surface of the Saitan Star. There were still people there!

But then Qin Feng dismissed his own thoughts. The flicker kept expanding at a visible rate on the surface of the Saitan Star, indicating a supermassive explosion!

Everyone watched in astonishment, unable to believe what kind of weapon could generate such immense power!

This was definitely not human technology; it was the raiders!

Indeed, their guesses were correct.

The raiders knew that the original sphere was no longer on the Saitan Star, so they simply decided to destroy this already desolate planet.

"If I'm not mistaken... there should still be people in the underground bunkers, right?" Qin Feng exclaimed in shock.

Someone nearby replied, "There probably aren't any left now..."

Indeed, with such a massive global explosion, how could anyone survive?

As the 12 colonization ships left the Saitan Star's orbit, the explosions continued. Due to the lack of an atmosphere, some of the dust generated by the explosions even dispersed into space.

At this moment, the Saitan Star was engulfed in flames! It resembled a miniature sun, a large fireball! Qin Feng looked at the Saitan Star, gradually being left behind, carrying his most beautiful and most painful memories...

Just then, someone suddenly shouted, "Look, what's that?!"

Everyone followed his finger, and against the backdrop of the sun, countless black dots occasionally flashed with silver light, flying towards them.

"It's the raider fleet!" someone exclaimed.

At the same time, several massive shadows appeared. They were the raider's interstellar motherships! They had caught up!
