Elara sat on the edge of the war table, her arms crossed, listening intently as Lawrence delivered the latest intelligence.
The holographic display above the table flickered, showing the outlines of Planet Asenus, red blinking markers indicating the locations where zerg activity had been detected.
Her brows furrowed as she studied the information, her heartbeat accelerating at the sheer number of red dots that littered the map.
"This isn't just a small invasion," Lawrence said, his voice steady but carrying the weight of urgency.
"This is a calculated push." He tapped the screen, zooming in on one of the danger zones, the city center itself.
"They're moving deeper into urban areas. And worse, high-level ones have been spotted."
Elara stiffened. "What level are we talking about?"
Lawrence exhaled slowly. "Seventh. Possibly eighth."
The room fell into a heavy silence.
Elara clenched her jaw. Zergs of that caliber were unheard of near human settlements.
