On the way back to the Lord's Mansion after leaving the military camp, Yang Ming leaned back in his chair and looked up to the sky and sighed.
Daphne on the side covered her mouth and chuckled.
Daphne, who had just witnessed the whole process of "Killing the Red Eye" by Yang Ming and his private army commanders, comforted her:
"A few of your men have very good minds. Even if they are placed in the regular army of the empire, they will be trained as generals. It is not unfair for you to lose to them.
"What's more, they also restrict your strengths - you can't join gangs to fight."
Yang Ming complained: "Are you comforting me or hurting me?"
"Of course it's comfort," Daphne kept laughing.
"Okay, comfort." Yang Ming leaned on the chair and slowly closed his eyes. "There will be no necessary activities next. I will stay here for half a month."
Daphne asked: "Didn't the Super Modifier Organization send an invitation letter and want you to go over and train the Super Modifiers?"
"There's no rush," Yang Ming said slowly. "The insecticide experience I can impart to them is backed up in the empire's database. This is the vacation you have managed to get for me. I must cherish it no matter what."
,right?"
Daphne smiled with squinted eyes, with a hint of gentleness in her eyes that could not be dissipated.
Yang Ming looked at her for a few seconds, then took out his own network terminal and opened the special application installed for him by the military. A simple map of the empire's territory appeared in front of their eyes.
The so-called territory map itself omits 99.9% of the naturally existing stars, and only specially marks each administrative star.
Yang Ming began to study the empire's military layout in response to the insect tide.
Daphne said softly: "Didn't you say you want to rest?"
"I'm still not sure," Yang Ming sighed softly, "The empire is the future home of my home planet, and I don't want to see any problems with the empire."
"Besides this?" Daphne asked, "Don't you have any feelings for the Empire?"
"Do I need to have feelings for the Empire?"
"Of course, this is not a necessity," Daphne smiled, leaning back on the soft seat and closing her eyes to relax, not reading the information she was not authorized to see.
Yang Ming had several thoughts running through his heart.
In other words, there are three things that he has always been thinking about, which makes his mind never completely peaceful:
Whether Li is going to attack him, how he will attack him, and what exactly he is going to do;
When does "Faya's Game" start;
How big will the insect wave be this time? Will the Queen target the Faiya people's "Valkyrie Project", which means he and the Valkyrie are whirling together?
'We should think of a way so that Posuo can act openly and openly with me.'
Yang Ming kept thinking.
He has prepared enough biological shielding devices on the Dongfeng, and the twelve Ligui mechas that have been prepared are also equipped with shielding devices.
Nothing else, just cherish your life.
After spending a peaceful half month on Sakaar, Yang Ming rushed to the main base of the Super Modifiers, and Daphne also returned to her tour to encourage people.
In the past half month, they were like a couple in love, spending all the time together.
But they did not have any interaction between the sexes. At most, Yang Ming was hugged and relied on when sleeping. In front of outsiders, Yang Ming hugged Daphne's waist and kissed her cheek.
that's enough.
They both got what they wanted in the relationship.
However, after the two separated, sitting in the ship going their separate ways, they would still look up at the porthole.
"Law, am I being a little cruel to Daphne?"
"Boss, she is very ambitious."
"Yeah," Yang Ming sighed, shook his head, put aside these distracting thoughts, and began to contact his real girlfriend, Mimi Li.
The super-modifiers are all his people, so if Mimili comes to accompany them, there won't be any problem.
…
Insect Swarm Countdown: 105 Standard Galactic Days.
The supermodifier training base is located on the surface of the planet, on the top floor of a hotel.
Yang Ming was lying on the water wearing big underpants, and next to him was Mimi Li who was wearing a bathrobe and showing off her perfect figure.
She drank some wine and looked a little confused. She kept pinching some fruits and putting them to Yang Ming's mouth. From time to time, she would come up to him and kiss Yang Ming's forehead and cheeks, and then help Yang Ming rub his forehead.
Yang Ming had a headache.
A headache in the physical sense.
It seems that the instinct of the ancient god's life form is at work.
Now whenever he closes his eyes, he can always see the starry sky. When he looks around, he can always see pairs of cold eyes.
Bugs, endless bugs, gathering in every corner.
He already felt some kind of fatal threat.
"Made!"
Yang Ming cursed: "Believe it or not, I rushed over and chopped them down!"
Mimili on the side smiled and played with Yang Ming's head: "Lu said that Wu Suo also had a similar phenomenon. She was very uneasy and stopped playing games and watching movies. She also offered to let Lu prepare enough for her.
weapons and equipment.”
"Tell Lu to send the shielding device as soon as possible."
"The new production line is already in operation, and the enhanced shielding device will arrive in three days."
Yang Ming groaned: "I'll be tortured for three more days. If that doesn't work, let's go back to the Dongfeng."
"No, uncle, you still have a few classes to attend, but we have to promise those super reformers."
Mimili dived under the water, like a mermaid, spinning around Yang Ming, her long wet hair hanging on her fair and smooth skin, and her charming fragrance penetrated the tip of Yang Ming's nose.
"I'm here to help you ease your pain."
She whispered against Yang Ming's ear, then gently exhaled the fragrant breath and pulled Yang Ming into the water.
A light to prevent prying eyes rose next to the swimming pool, and the eight combat maid robots further away turned their heads on their own, their expressions very calm.
…
Countdown to the Insect Swarm: 96 Standard Galactic Days.
The first star of the Luofeng Alliance, in the palace of Ellando Star.
Emilia was wearing a nightgown, sitting cross-legged in an office chair, wearing protective glasses, and looking at the thin reports in front of her.
It was just a military report of several thousand words, and she had been reading it for half an hour.
"Miss Guina?"
Emilia suddenly raised her head and asked.
Guina, who was wearing an elegant evening dress, immediately stepped forward and responded: "Your Highness, you give me your orders."
"Can we block it?"
Emilia asked:
"What I mean is that with only our current military strength in Luofeng, can we withstand the insect tide?
"The data I saw in this report are indeed a bit worrying."
Miss Guina showed a faint smile: "If we only rely on the apparent military strength of the Luofeng Alliance, we should have to pay some price and lose some marginal administrative stars."
Emilia sighed: "So, the question now is, should we bear the risk of exposing the Dark Star and protect all administrative stars, or should we use our current strength to fight against the Zerg and sacrifice a few administrative stars."
"You can say that."
Guina said slowly:
"However, this is just a simple and general situation, and the real situation is much more complicated.
"First, we can roughly rule out the possibility of direct communication between the Zerg and the human world. As long as we avoid human sight, we can use our real fleet unscrupulously.
"Second, the main attack route of the Zerg in this direction is the Sherman Empire. According to the tendency of the Zerg swarms to gather and move, they will attack from the northern and eastern regions of the Sherman Empire. We just avoided the large swarm of Zerg here.
group.
"But no one can guarantee this. The Zerg may also use some tactics to mobilize troops. They are very cunning and smart.
"Third, the Zerg will most likely not target the planet where the mechanical lifeforms are located. Therefore, even if Luofeng's losses are greater, if our boss does not want to do a loss-making business, he does not need to support humans."
Emilia pursed her lips slightly: "Then, will bounty hunters help humans?"
"It seems possible at the moment," Guina squinted and smiled, "The principle given to us by the boss is to temporarily put aside the hostility with the empire and protect the Luofeng Alliance without exposing ourselves."
Emilia breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, my stress has been reduced by half in an instant."
Guina turned her head and looked out the door: "His Majesty is calling me. I'll excuse you now, Your Highness."
"Ah, wait!"
Emilia suddenly remembered something, got up and ran barefoot to the cabinet nearby and took out a pocket memory card.
"Give this to the bounty hunter for me. There is a video inside."
"Okay," Guina said with a smile, "I will definitely deliver it to you... Can you satisfy my curiosity? What's inside?"
"His birthday blessing video," Emilia shrugged, "He celebrated my birthday, so naturally I wanted to send him some blessings, and today is it."
Guina nodded with a smile.
She did not remind her of the cruel fact that most of the information her boss left in Luofeng was false.
"You are interested."
"Go ahead, don't let that omnimachine wait too long," Emilia curled her lips slightly, "Fortunately, you controlled him directly as soon as he arrived, otherwise I was really afraid that I wouldn't be able to help myself and go up and chop him down."
"Don't worry," Guina said softly, "Omnic machines of this level can't make any waves in front of us."
…
Countdown to Insect Swarm: 68 Standard Galactic Days.
The military's "insect tide response" command center - a five-kilometer-long super aircraft carrier.
On the bridge, on the command platform of this super aircraft carrier, Yang Ming was wearing a dark green imperial military uniform, holding a lightsaber in his hand, and kept making slashing gestures.
In front of him, the projector projected a sixth-order adult insect and a fifth-order adult insect.
About half a month ago, their committee temporarily passed a resolution and issued a batch of temporary strengthening injections to various fleets of the Imperial Military Department.
These diluted injections can barely be used by physically strong adult soldiers, and they can temporarily gain a combat effectiveness comparable to half a Gris.
The training items for soldiers usually only include various firearms and shipboard subjects. Some time ago, lightsaber courses and cold weapon close combat subjects have been added.
Now, every large ship in the empire is equipped with 300 new lightsabers, and two diluted strengthening injections are bundled on the hilt of each lightsaber.
This is for emergency use, and it is also the last resort for the soldiers on the ship to counterattack when they come into close contact with the insect swarm and the insect swarm breaks into the ship.
Yang Ming was not optimistic about this method.
But when the military requested a live broadcast class for all military officers to explain how to kill bugs, Yang Ming did not refuse and happily appeared here to tell everyone about the bugs' weaknesses.
"The primary weakness is their foot segments.
"When the Zerg enter the ship, they will also be affected by simulated gravity. If their legs are destroyed, their ability to move will be restricted to a certain extent, and they may even actively choose to exit the ship and go to space for remote combat.
.
"I believe that everyone has read enough learning materials about insect swarms in the past year.
"But I still want to remind everyone, don't give up the long-range weapons in your hands until the critical moment. In terms of close combat, we humans are indeed far inferior to the Zerg..."
At the other end of the live broadcast, Yang Ming gave serious instructions.
At the other end of the live broadcast, in the bridges and lounges of the imperial warships, the imperial soldiers were sitting at attention, their eyes shining with extremely eager light.
In the star field that the directional orbit leads to near the Saka star, in the T32 battle group of the local defense force, which has gathered more than 600 warships, the group of young people from Yang Ming's private army are in high spirits at this moment.
Their lord had already told them these words.
That's still on the surface of the planet, not in this vast universe.
Peterson stood in front of the porthole with his hands behind his back, looking at the messages that appeared in the captain's commander's dedicated group chat, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
On his chest, a special badge is particularly eye-catching.
It was a silver-white skull, with blazing flames burning around it, and those empty eyes that were shining with light, as if they were black holes that would not evaporate.
…
Countdown to the Insect Swarm: 36 Standard Galactic Days.
A planet on the edge of the empire.
Amidst the slight noise, Catherine stood in front of a railing and looked up at the dozens of gates that were slowly closing above.
They have moved into independently run 'rebel-only' shelters.
The ventilation system began to work at full capacity, and the warm air blowing from the side blew Catherine's hair.
Several men and women appeared behind.
"Boss, the shielding devices have been activated. It is most likely safe here."
"The United States of America is really awesome. They gave us so much equipment for free. However, they probably want us to consume the empire's resources. I'm not very grateful to them."
Someone said: "I think it was not given to us by the United States of America, but by the financial backers behind our leader."
"A scandal just broke out in the Free United States last week. There are more than 20 extremely poor administrative stars. The quality of the shelters they built has problems, and the number of shielding devices they are equipped with is not enough. They have directly abandoned billions of people. They
If you don’t have enough equipment, how can you give it to us for free?”
"Didn't the Free United States sell shielding devices for half the galaxy?"
"That is normal business behavior. They gave their country's military a 40% discount on the purchase price, which has made the New Federation and the Guel Alliance very dissatisfied."
"But fortunately, the United Free States will not face the insect swarm in the first round. Judging from the direction of the insect's attack, the United Free Republic and the Gu'el Alliance are both outside the deep offensive, and there is a thick layer of human civilization on the periphery. Territory serves as a barrier.”
"The New Federation is really miserable. They have old and new grudges with the insects. Half of the insect swarms are targeting the New Federation."
"Fighting against the swarm is different from fighting against the empire. The New Federation's planetary defense system is the best in the galaxy."
"The Empire has to face two swarm swarms."
A girl asked in a low voice: "As super-modifiers, don't we need to fight?"
The people who were chatting fell silent instantly.
Catherine lowered her head and sighed, then gently grasped forward with her gloved right hand, as if she wanted to catch some dust.
"No need, the empire has no place for us for the time being, and we don't have enough ships to go out."
The mood of several people has obviously become much lower.
Dang, Dang sounds came one after another, and dozens of gates were closed at the same time.
Catherine suddenly said: "If a swarm of insects arrives on this planet, we can't just sit and wait to die."
"yes!"
…
Countdown to Insect Tide: 19th Galactic Standard Day.
Emperor Star, Palace Module, Palace Main Hall.
Rapid and messy footsteps sounded outside the palace, and a large number of elders, nobles, and ministers from various departments rushed into the palace.
The old emperor also had a serious look on his face. He floated from the back door in a suspended seat and sat down on the high platform.
"Tell me, what's the emergency?"
The most quick-talking elder in the Presbytery immediately reported:
"Your Majesty! Zerg scouts have appeared on the border! There are about hundreds of thousands of high-level adults who can only achieve three-dimensional invisibility. They have entered the empire's star field and dispersed in all directions! They should be spying on our military arrangements and carrying out their operations. Tactical arrangements!”
"A hundred thousand scouts?" The old emperor frowned tightly.
"Yes, Your Majesty, the working mechanism of the insect swarm's ability to jump is that the individual insect swarms combine into battleships, and they combine to form hundreds of small battleships and break into our border!"
The old emperor looked at the two supreme commanders of the military.
"Your Majesty, our mobile fleet has begun to intercept all directions. Currently... the news just came in the last second, one-third of the Zerg warships have been intercepted! Eighty percent of the opponent's warships have been marked. !”
"They are looking for our fleet, Your Majesty!"
The emperor frowned and covered his forehead: "Is Imperial Guard 2.0 ready?"
"We are ready to intervene in the empire's unified network at any time."
"Well, don't be anxious yet," the old emperor said, "We still have to believe in the Imperial Guard system that has led the empire through tens of thousands of years. As a supplement, Imperial Guard 2.0 can make us feel more at ease... My knight is here. where?"
"Your Majesty, what Knight Commander Hanton means is that he may also be the Queen's target, so he cannot come to the Emperor Star to escort her, and he cannot stay in the command center. He has already rushed to the frontline troops."
"Is he the target?"
The old emperor raised his eyebrows slightly: "To convey my will, I said that the empire needs a hero like him to stand up. As long as he can repel the big queen, the empire will give him all honors."
"Yes! Your Majesty!"
The old emperor exhaled softly. He was not very good at resisting pressure, but now he felt the tremendous pressure from the powerful alien life form.
