Suddenly, Hu Yu thought of something, Slaughterer immediately changed direction and headed back towards the Milky Way. Accompanying the Slaughterer were the Conqueror, who had not suffered any losses. The two fleets moved between the galaxies like ghosts, one relying on two-dimensional technology and the other on deeper three-dimensional space technology, perfectly concealing themselves in space.
"Boss, boss, good news!" Just as Hu Yu Wen Zhonghua were discussing the war, Number One sent a message.
"If it's not really good news, you guys might get a beating."
"Second Boss is here too! That's really good news! We've caught that Guan Sengping! Men, bring that bastard here!" Number One shouted arrogantly.
In the video, Guan Sengping was seen looking dejected as he was escorted to Number One by two clones, one on each side. His face was covered in bruises, and there was still blood on the corner of his mouth. It seemed that he had been beaten up by these little brats quite a bit.
This tyrant has lost his former prowess. Back in the Mu Star Civilization, he was able to survive the terrifying environment of feeding the Insect Race, but now he has lost all confidence in resisting and persevering. Hu Yu could tell from his eyes that Guan Sengping did not lose his ability to resist because of the torture inflicted by Number One and the others, but was completely crushed on a spiritual level. Hu Yu wondered what methods those little devils had used.
"Boss, how's it going? Is it good news?"
"Hmm, not bad."
"Boss, where are you? Send me the spatial coordinates. This guy is impervious to both soft and hard tactics; we haven't gotten a single word out of him. We have no choice but to leave him to you."
"You're all so smug because you haven't gotten a single word out of him. Where's Li Shun? Have you found Li Shun yet? You're getting all cocky just because you caught one of his henchmen."
"Oh dear, Second Brother, Li Shun is smarter than a monkey. We dispersed our fleet and searched most of the galaxy, as well as many places on its outskirts, but we couldn't find any trace of him. You know, if a Great Star Region Civilization wants to hide, even a Galactic-Level Civilization would have a hard time finding it."
"I'll give you some spatial coordinates, hurry up and get over here. I haven't beaten anyone up in Laozi, my hands are itching, haha." Wen Zhonghua grinned wickedly.
"Second Brother, there's a big secret. I'll tell you when we get here. Not only will you not beat us up, you'll even reward us! Hehe, minions, let's go!"
Not long after, Fleet Number One and Hu Yu met at the edge of the Milky Way. This was a spatial coordinate specifically designated by Wen Zhonghua, tens of thousands of light-years away from the Boötes. It was better to deal with these matters away from other civilizations. Daozi had never had any attitude towards Li Shun's human group, but Hu Yu Wen Zhonghua still wanted to save face for Daozi.
"Boss, boss..."
Seven little dwarfs surrounded Hu Yu, calling out to him incessantly.
"Good, good, you've done a great job."
"Of course, men, bring that bastard Guan Sengping up to the boss."
Soon, Guan Sengping was brought before Hu Yu. Guan Sengping seemed to have regained some strength, at least he was no longer like a limp mess as before.
" Guan Sengping, I won't dwell on past grievances; there's no point in talking about them with people like you. Where is Li Shun?"
"Haha, Hu Yu." Guan Sengping laughed arrogantly, "It's pointless for you to capture me. You don't need to torture me. I really don't know where the leader is. No one can know the leader's whereabouts in advance."
Hu Yu nodded. Li Shun was indeed that kind of person. He wouldn't trust anyone and would always put his own safety first. As for the second thing, it would definitely be personal interests.
"What exactly does Li Shun want to do? Don't tell me you don't know either?"
"The Führer's goals are grand, something you lowly people will never understand. Although the Führer has failed for now, he will rise again one day. Hu Yu, kill me. I won't say another word."
After Guan Sengping finished speaking, he closed his eyes and made no further movements. Hu Yu knew that the Number One had already tried various methods to inquire without success, and he wouldn't be able to get any useful information out of him either.
"Take him away, keep a close watch on him, and treat him well."
"Boss, why give this kind of person any preferential treatment? In my opinion, we should make him wish he were dead, and torture him mercilessly."
"If that's the case, then what's the difference between us and Li Shun? After all, they're human too."
"All right."
Number One waved his hand, and the clone took Guan Sengping away. Hu Yu looked at Guan Sengping and thought of Li Shun. Li Shun was an extremely ambitious man who defected to the Insect Race and transplanted the brains of the people into the Zerg. All of this meant huge sacrifices. Li Shun would never have done this without a huge reward. However, Hu Yu couldn't figure out what that reward was. It could only be the analysis of the technology on the Zerg.
There are many ways to extract technology from insects. The Milky Way civilization did this before, but due to the limitation of insect tiers, the tiers of insects that Small Star Sector Civilization could capture were not high, and the technology extracted was also very limited. It was basically Small Star Region technology, which could only enrich the technology tree, but could not improve it.
"You bunch of kids, don't you have some big secret? If you can't tell us the details, you'll all be in for a beating."
"Oh, oh, oh, I forgot, Second Elder, this matter dates back countless millions of years."
"Bang!" Wen Zhonghua flicked Number One's round head on the forehead. "For countless millennia, I think you've been asking for a bullet!"
"Yes, yes, it seems to be around 90,000 years ago, around this time. At that time, you had just rescued Guan Sengping and Wei Kaiyuan, and we had just received the boss's orders to venture into the universe under the name of the Aquila Civilization. Once, I came to Earth Four to visit Academician Xiao and happened to run into the two of them."
"That was over 7,000 AD, have you forgotten so quickly?"
"Hey, never mind being so meticulous, Second Brother, I felt those two were strange back then, because a living being's Consciousness Field only has one frequency, and this frequency is basically fixed, unaffected by the living being's emotions, actions, habits, etc. Only when a major change occurs in life will the frequency of the fluctuation change."
"More importantly, a living being can only have one kind of fluctuation, but these two people have a hidden layer of fluctuation beneath their normal Consciousness Field fluctuations. This fluctuation might not even be known to them, just like a person having two kinds of consciousness. However, the intensity of their second Consciousness Field fluctuation is not enough to form an autonomous consciousness; it can only influence their words, actions, personality, and temperament in certain ways."
