Originally, this was just a reconnaissance mission, but in just over three months, a new Super Star Cluster was incorporated into the Federation's territory. This was something that none of the Federation's upper echelons expected.
After this good news came, it also confirmed that the location of the Purgatory organization was opposite the Jerez Ocean Passage, in the Nerkeja Supercluster.
However, this news made Lin Fan a little stunned.
After all, during the Wills Special Battle, the fleet that invaded Jerez from the Nerkeja Supercluster was the fleet of a technological civilization, not the army of a biological civilization.
This did not make sense at all.
Technological civilization and biological civilization were like two naturally opposite magnets, always repelling each other.
Unless …
Unless the Tier 9 Haig was far from being the strongest creature in Purgatory, and the strongest creature in the entire Purgatory had the power to easily crush a Tier 9 technological civilization, so much so that it took all the technological civilizations in the Nerkeja Supercluster as its subordinates, including Tier 9 technological civilizations!
Only in this way could it be explained why the Purgatory Army and the two Tier 9 technological civilizations invaded Wills Special Battle from Jerez.

"You mean to use the Bosnia Supercluster as the headquarters and continue to expand from that direction?"
After listening to his son's suggestion, Lin Fan's eyes lit up.
There were still too many uncertainties in the Nerkeja Supercluster, and Lin Fan was not prepared to take the initiative to attack at this time.
However, if this passage was not opened, the Federation's path of expansion would be blocked by Purgatory. Then, the rapid development of the entire civilization would be slowed down or even completely stopped.
Because all his energy was focused on the Nerkeja Supercluster, Lin Fan actually neglected another cosmic ocean current that was connected to the outside world. According to Lin Yu's report, in the Bosnia Supercluster, in addition to the cosmic ocean current that led to the Wills Special Supercluster, there were two other cosmic ocean currents.
In other words, even if humans could not deal with the Nerkenia Supercluster for the time being, they could still use the Bosnian Supercluster to expand outward.
"That's right. Other than the necessary defensive forces, I will mobilize at least eight attack groups to establish the second headquarters of the Federation Starfleet in the Bosnian Supercluster, specifically responsible for the Federation's territory expansion missions."
Lin Yu nodded in confirmation.
In fact, he had just thought of this plan not too long ago.
Furthermore, there was another benefit to doing this. With more territory, he could take out a few Super Star Clusters and move all the subsidiary civilizations away.
In the end, Lanikaia, Wills, and Nerkeia would become the core regions of the Federation.
Another benefit was …
Only with more territory could they stimulate the growth of the Federation's population!
One had to know that ever since the Federation left the solar system, every crazy increase in population was linked to the expansion of the territory.
Without any benefits, who would be willing to give birth?
This was a rather practical question.
However, it was impossible for the people not to give birth. For the prosperity of a galactic civilization, population was one of the three absolute factors.
Even if they were racking their brains, the upper echelons of the Federation were constantly thinking of ways to encourage the people to give birth!
Based on the experience of more than a hundred years, the best way was still the same as the Earth era, which was …
Land!
Back when the Federation defeated the Oxus Empire and carried out the first round of territory expansion, they directly linked the distribution of territory with birth, which led to the first crazy birth wave in the history of the Federation.
As for the upper echelons of the Federation who had tasted the benefits, they used this method almost every time they expanded their territory.
However, as time passed and the territory continued to expand, the Federation was faced with a new problem …
There were more planets than people!
Not to mention other things, just the Milky Way where the Federation was located had hundreds of billions of stars and planets. The number of planets was uncountable.
Although only a small portion of them were naturally habitable planets, with the current technology of the Federation, transforming a planet into a habitable planet was as simple as sprinkling water. It could not be any simpler.
Therefore, after taking over the entire Milky Way, the Federation no longer distributed the land on a planet according to population like before. Instead, they directly gave out planets!
For example, if your family had 30 people, fine, they would directly give you a planet!
Another example, if your family had 100 people?
That was also fine, more children and more benefits, they would directly give you a star system!
Just like that, under this crazy policy, the Federation welcomed another explosion of people. However, after a few decades, things started to go wrong …
The territory in their hands could not support such a huge consumption. Even if they had an entire supercluster, they could not support such a huge consumption for decades!
What should they do?
In fact, the answer was very simple. As long as the Federation never stopped and continued to expand, it would be fine.
Yes, it was that simple. However, the problem was that the Federation was held back by the Zergs for a few decades and could not rapidly expand.
Now, the Zergs had finally been eliminated, but Inferno had appeared and continued to obstruct the Federation's expansion.
This point was simply enough to cause the Federation's upper echelons to be worried to death!
After all, even with the addition of the Kempinia Supercluster, they could only support the Federation's population explosion for less than 50 years. As for the Wills Special Supercluster, it was currently at the frontline of danger. Before the problem of Inferno was solved, they did not dare to move people there.
From this, it could be seen how important the Bosnian Supercluster was to the Federation.
Once this path was completely opened, the factors that limited the Federation's development in the short term would no longer exist. While ensuring that the Federation could maintain rapid development, it also ensured that the Federation could completely solve the problem of Inferno in a shorter period of time.
"Okay, I will convene a meeting of the upper echelons of the Federation to discuss this proposal."
"It shouldn't be a big problem. After all, the issue of territory has always been the issue that the upper echelons are most concerned about."
"At the same time, you should also make preparations. Once the proposal is passed, you will very likely be appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Starfleet's second headquarters and be fully responsible for the Federation's expansion matters!"
After hearing Lin Yu's confirmation, Lin Fan nodded and said.
"Understood!"
