" Ci Ma, how much longer will the Insect Emperor need?" The leader of Fish Horse Star was getting anxious.

"Chief, it'll be soon, it'll be soon, we'll definitely make it in time."

"The Galaxy Fleet is fearless in the face of sacrifice, are you? Stop the Snow Tribe warships at all costs!"

Yes, at any cost.

The silver behemoth ignored all attacks and advanced rapidly through the passage. The Space Maze could stop the silver warship, but the Fish Horse Star warship could not. In front of this silver behemoth, the Fish Horse Star warship was like an ant. If this behemoth had not used special energy, the battle situation would probably have been reversed long ago.

Hu Yu was also somewhat puzzled as to why the Snow Tribe's giant ship didn't use conventional energy. The only reasonable explanation might be that the attack power of conventional energy has an upper limit. If they wanted to increase their attack power to the next level, besides mastering more dimensions, using this special energy might also be a good option.

50 million kilometers.

40 million kilometers.

10 million kilometers.

As they drew nearer, the silver behemoth advanced smoothly despite the desperate attempts of the Fish Horse Star fleet to intercept it. In the final stretch, the Fish Horse Star warships destroyed all the Xuan Star Civilization warships, but at this point, the Xuan Star Civilization warships were no longer needed, as the Fish Horse Star warships had already used the fleet to create a new passage.

Suddenly, a colossal figure descended into the three-dimensional space. After some time, the Insect Emperor's size had grown to be comparable to that of a silver behemoth. The appearance of this ferocious and terrifying giant insect stunned everyone. It had a sturdy gray-black carapace, strong arthropod legs, and a massive head covered with eye-like crystals.

At first glance, this giant insect resembled a praying mantis, but in reality, the Insect Emperor was more than a hundred million times more terrifying than a praying mantis. The Insect Emperor stood majestically in front of the silver behemoth, with tens of thousands of enormous eyes staring intently at it. The silver behemoth was forced to stop its movements and was blocked 5 million kilometers away from the protective layer inside the black hole.

" Yan Xue, keep it up!"

"Brother, I understand."

The silver behemoth started up again, and with a dash, it attempted to use its powerful thrust to smash through the Insect Emperor's obstruction. The Insect Emperor did not dodge at all, and the two behemoths collided violently in mid-air. As expected of the Snow Tribe Snow Tribe, the warship remained completely undamaged even after such a collision. On the contrary, the Insect Emperor was directly pierced through by the warship and split into two parts, one large and one small.

"What's going on?" asked the leader of Fish Horse Star.

"Chief, the Insect Emperor's consciousness is still struggling. It has grown too much in recent years, exceeding our expectations."

"Resolve it immediately."

"Yes," the scientist from the Fish Horse Star Civilization replied nervously.

The Insect Emperor was smashed, but it quickly gathered its broken limbs and reassembled itself, restoring itself to its original state. At this moment, Hu Yu suddenly realized that the fortress had reached the vicinity of the galactic black hole, which would enter the fortress's range in a few hours at most.

Just then, an army of insects, numbering in the tens of trillions, finally arrived. These high-level insects were the result of Academician Xiao's countless years of hard work. Each insect was perfectly controlled by the biological warriors and completely obeyed Academician Xiao's commands. The appearance of the insect army directly filled the entire space inside and outside the fortress.

The movement of warships has become extremely difficult, but this is only true for the Fish Horse Star Civilization civilization. Although the galactic civilization's fleet can no longer rampage, the insect army will always obediently cooperate with the fleet, making way for the fleet to advance and maneuver.

"They've arrived just in time! All civilizations, immediately move in and attack!"

The arrival of the insects rendered the Space Maze useless. Although the fortress was still releasing powerful energy pillar attacks, the insects were not afraid. They could be killed, and the matter could remain in this space. The arrival of the insects greatly relieved the pressure on the river fleet. Not only did they not need to dodge the ubiquitous energy pillar attacks, but they could also fill the Space Maze, preventing the fleet from getting lost.

Academician Xiao had been hesitant to deploy his insect army primarily because he didn't want to alarm the Insect Emperor. The Insect Emperor wouldn't care about losing a few hundred million insects, but if all of his forces were taken away, the Insect Emperor would surely retaliate. Now that the Insect Emperor had come to the center of the galaxy, Academician Xiao could naturally deploy his insect army.

"It's done, Chief." The scientist from the Fish Horse Star was covered in sweat.

"Act immediately, and quickly!"

Just as the Fish Horse Star Civilization was preparing to take action, a disc-shaped fleet consisting of 500 trillion warships arrived. It was Li Shun's fleet. Li Shun's insectoid people were killed by the omnipresent biological warriors. Originally, they were supposed to be controlled, but due to the addition of a brain, the biological warriors' invasion turned into slaughter, directly causing the deaths of Li Shun's insectoid people.

Li Shun didn't care much about these insect subjects, because the cost of insect subjects was extremely low. To build an insect army, all that was needed was a small base less than 100 kilometers long, which could be easily accomplished by a few people. Li Shun stayed in the Insect Zone only to take advantage of the Insect Emperor's protection.

Li Shun knew that the insectoid population alone couldn't cause much trouble, so he never gave up on conventional warships. Over the years, Li Shun had also built a massive fleet within the insectoids' bodies.

"Your Majesty, it seems the Insect Emperor is not under the control of the Fish Horse Star Civilization."

"Haha, this is truly heaven's help! Heaven is helping me! Wei Kaiyuan, seize the Insect Emperor's consciousness and use it for my own purposes!"

It must be said that Li Shun's understanding of the Insect Emperor is far more profound than that of the Fish Horse Star Civilization. Putting aside the fact that Li Shun himself carries the Consciousness Field of the Insect Race, the fact that Li Shun has had close contact with the Insect Emperor for so many years is something that the Fish Horse Star Civilization cannot compare to. The Fish Horse Star Civilization simply does not dare to make close contact with the Insect Emperor.

Therefore, the Fish Horse Star Civilization found a curve. When the Insect Race descended, the Fish Horse Star Civilization fortunate enough to discover a Insect Emperor Secondary Body. The so-called Insect Emperor This-Life Body was a consciousness that the Insect Emperor split off in his early days to occupy the Consciousness Field of a high-level Zerg in order to conquer the galaxy.

Because the Insect Emperor's primary target, the central black hole of the galaxy, is inconvenient for large-scale operations, and it encountered strong resistance within the galaxy, Insect Emperor Secondary Body was born in order to better command the swarm. It shares the same goal as the Insect Emperor Insect Emperor, but has no connection with him and is a completely independent entity.

After discovering this, the Fish Horse Star Civilization sensed that their plan to seize control of the Galactic Consciousness would become easier. Therefore, the Fish Horse Star Civilization Insect Emperor This-Life Body, pretending to be willing to submit to the Insect Emperor in order to survive. However, the Insect Emperor's consciousness demanded to invade their Consciousness Field and control them.
