Qu Jianlei had no reaction to the Alliance intensifying its offensive on the other side.
It was intelligence they had already known, and the Empire should have received the news long ago as well.
What really interested Qu Jianlei was that Xiao Hu had found a way to deal with the Locust corpses. "Was it one of the approaches I mapped out?"
The Big Head Butterfly spun around. "Mm-hmm, the least likely one... a Qi Gathering Array!"
Before leaving, Qu Jianlei had laid out several directions for Xiao Hu to pursue in energy conversion.
Artificial intelligence was somewhat lacking when it came to independent innovation, so he was used to setting the broad direction first.
But using Locust corpses as the energy source for a Qi Gathering Array was something Qu Jianlei truly did not think highly of.
The Locust corpses did indeed contain quite a bit of energy, but they still could not compare to the purity of Energy Blocks, and converting it would be difficult.
The only advantage their side had in this regard was their proficiency with Qi Gathering Arrays and Gathering Spirit Arrays.
They had accumulated a great deal of experience while deriving those two arrays.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Hu had truly derived a workable plan. However, since Qu Jianlei had not been around, it had been inconvenient to test it.
And Xiao Hu was the meticulous sort, never one to sit idle. By now, it had already refined more than three hundred versions.
There were quite a few experiments to carry out. Since Qu Jianlei had been planning to return and rest up anyway, the Battalion-Class Ship once again approached the Channel Entrance.
He did not report the matter of the Heim Star Region to the military, only passing on some information they had just learned.
