Not long after, Hu Yu was dragged out of the Expeller's hatch by several mechanical beings. These mechanical beings were arranged by the leader of Yun San. For this operation, the leader of Yun San mobilized tens of trillions of mechanical beings from the Lord Base. This was a desperate measure, but also a ruthless move.

Firstly, it could alleviate the predicament of insufficient fleet under the command of the Yun San Scatter leader; secondly, it could avoid exposing themselves; and thirdly, the mechanical bodies might have a way to break through these human warships. If the Insect Emperor was not lured over, these mechanical bodies would attack as planned, seizing the opportunity to kill Hu Yu.

However, the Yun San Civilization is quite familiar with the Insect Emperor's habits. This guy has a very high chance of making a move. As long as the Insect Emperor is attacked, there is a 90% chance that it will pursue and kill the attacker.

As expected, the Insect Emperor made its move. However, the way the Insect Emperor did it was unexpected by the leader of Yun San. This was the first time he had seen the Insect Emperor's true form. This small individual was the place where its Consciousness Field resided, and the huge outer shell was just its protective layer.

The leader of Yun San was extremely cautious. He would not give up until he saw Hu Yu 'Yun San corpse. There would be no second chance. He deeply understood the principle that if you don't cut the weeds at the root, they will grow back in the Yun San. Therefore, as soon as the Insect Emperor left, the leader of Yun San ordered the mechanical bodies to be deployed.

What excited the leader of Yun San was that the 50 trillion warships of the Great Star Region Civilization brought by Hu Yu actually returned on their own. This was a godsend. The original plan was that more than 90% of the mechanical bodies would have to be destroyed before they could even approach the warship where Hu Yu was. Now that only a hundred warships remained, the loss was negligible.

Just as Hu Yu was being carried out of the hatch by the mechanical beings, ready to be taken away, a small fleet appeared. This fleet swooped down, forcibly carving a path through the dense mass of mechanical beings, and then snatched Hu Yu away. All of this happened in the blink of an eye; the mechanical beings didn't even have time to react before the fleet carried Hu Yu away, instantly disappearing into the vast four-dimensional space.

This sudden change greatly surprised the leader of Yun San. Less than two minutes had passed since the mechanical beings launched their attack. Where did this fleet come from? It seemed that this fleet had been hidden nearby from the very beginning, and the leader of Yun San had never seen this fleet before.

According to the reconnaissance of the Yun San leader, there are no other civilization fleets in this airspace. The nearest Far Watcher Civilization fleet is hundreds of light-years away. Moreover, his actions are secretive enough that the Farsighted civilization fleet has not made any unusual moves so far. Furthermore, the Yun San Far Watcher Civilization leader is very clear about the strength of the Far Watcher Civilization. It is absolutely impossible for them to abduct Hu Yu under his nose.

The Superintelligent Robot discovered that Hu Yu had been taken away, which was absolutely unacceptable. They frantically attacked the surrounding mechanical objects, and the Expeller whose hatch had been opened closed its hatch again. The RoboCop destroyed the mechanical objects inside and began to chase after the fleet that had kidnapped Hu Yu.

With Hu Yu abducted, the leader of Yun San could only send the mechanical beings back secretly. It was impossible for these mechanical beings to pursue and kill him. Now, the leader of Yun San was not 100% sure that Hu Yu was dead, but judging from the situation on the battlefield, the probability of Hu Yu's death was as high as 95%. An ordinary human could not withstand the brain attack of the Insect Emperor.

However, the planetary message sent by the reconnaissance equipment made Yun San's leader feel as if he had suddenly fallen into a layer of ice. The humans on this planet had mysteriously come back to life. The scene of the Insect Emperor flying around the planet and killing people had not yet faded from Yun San's leader's mind. The fact that these attacked people had come back to life was almost impossible.

Therefore, the probability of Hu Yu's death dropped from 95% to 5%. This 5% difference stemmed from the differences between the two human groups. In recent years, the Yun San Civilization has been secretly researching things related to consciousness, but the progress has been very slow. To this day, the Yun San Civilization has not mastered consciousness attacks. However, Li Shun knew that the people had two Consciousness Field.

Perhaps it was these two Consciousness Field that resurrected the humans on this planet. Hu Yu did not have two Consciousness Field, so the possibility of his resurrection was not high. However, as a fellow human being, the leader of Yun San ultimately determined the probability of Hu Yu's death to be five percent, which was already high enough. The leader of Yun San even believed that Hu Yu had already awakened at this moment.

However, Hu Yu did not wake up. On the warship, a group of tall and ferocious creatures with thick tails were conducting various checks on Hu Yu.

"Mr. Jin Yan, how is Hu Yu?" one of the creatures asked.

"Commander Huang Chi, General Hu Yu has been subjected to a powerful attack on his Consciousness Field. His Consciousness Field is now like a candle flame in the wind, on the verge of being extinguished. Fortunately, their warship's Consciousness Field defenses are very strong, and he himself has a firm will; otherwise, General Hu Yu's Consciousness Field would have already dissipated."

"Sigh, this kid, why is he still so impulsive?"

"General Hu Yu also wants to find the mastermind behind this and eliminate the unstable factors before the great battle, which is why he risked coming here. If the Insect Emperor doesn't appear, General Hu Yu's safety should be fine."

"That Yun San Civilization, hmph, if it weren't for the old man's instructions, Laozi have wiped them out long ago."

"The old gentleman is unfathomable. Now is not the time, Commander Huang Chi. Our research on consciousness is still very superficial. In the end, we should send General Hu Yu back to the human base. Perhaps Academician Xiao can save him."

"That's for the best, but we shouldn't show ourselves. I'll find a way to contact humans and return Hu Yu to them."

"Alright, we will ensure that General Hu Yu's consciousness does not dissipate during this period. However, sir, the sooner the better; the sooner we can treat him, the greater our chances of success."

"Okay, I understand."

Just as the group was talking, Gao Jianchuan, who was at the center of the galaxy, received a message from afar. Upon receiving the message, Gao Jianchuan's heart was pounding. Wen Zhonghua had already gone to Sextans, and Luo Zhigao and Yang Fan were stationed in the Secondary Universe. Now, the only people he could discuss things with were Li Zhixiong and Chen Peng.

The faces of the group instantly turned ashen. Their commander was reduced to a mere wisp of Consciousness Field. However, the news they received next shattered their last hope: Hu Yu had been abducted by an unknown fleet, his fate and whereabouts unknown.

The three of them froze, staring at each other, unable to utter a single word. The only sounds in the warship were their rapid breathing and the pounding of their hearts.

"Gentlemen, this is of utmost importance and must be kept strictly confidential," Gao Jianchuan was the first to react.

" Old Gao, what do you think we should do?"
