In fact, Gao Gong had considered playing the bugs for fools.
He could simply leak the news.
Not only to the Galenites, but to the Miltans as well.
But in the end, he rejected the idea.
"Even if we wanted to trigger species evolution, it would still take some time. Before that, the Anti-Bug Alliance's forces are actually quite powerful..."
Seeing Director Du staring at him intently, Gao Gong knew he could no longer fob off the rich lady.
"Actually, I'm not worried about the bugs' war potential. I'm worried about the Insect Queen," Gao Gong said frankly.
"No matter how well the bugs fight, as long as our 'mechanical farming-and-warfare model' takes shape, we'll be able to churn out troops and fight her head-on. She can evolve, and so can we—and we can evolve better and faster!"
Setting aside the several dozen mechanical masters serving as the company's figureheads, even if he only had the system, Gao Gong still had that confidence.
A cheat-enabled life needed no further explanation.
"But I can't see through this queen. An ordinary Insect Queen wouldn't use her 'Authority' so frequently. She's overtaxing her own authority. Isn't she worried that the insect consciousness will rebel?"
"That..." Director Du had inherited the cosmic noble memories of Granny He Luo, so she knew at least a little about the insect race. Thinking about it now, something really did seem off.
"There are two possibilities. First, as a 'sealed object,' she may have been modified by a higher civilization, making her queenly authority far superior to that of ordinary Insect Queens."
"Second, she may be searching for the other two 'sealed objects.' Those two 'sealed objects' are most likely in the First Star Sector, which is why she rushed over so urgently, heedless of the cost."
