In the blink of an eye, more than three months passed.
During these three months, so-called human reconnaissance warships continued to appear throughout the Gal system.
Of course, every time it appeared, it was discovered "very promptly" by the Zerg.
As before, some battleships discovered the Zerg and destroyed them directly, some fled immediately, and some were very accidental and did not find the Zerg and sailed for a long time under the Zerg's tail.
At the beginning, Heineye was still very concerned about the situation of these warships, but as time passed, it lost interest. It just sent a few more war bugs to the areas where the war bugs had been wiped out to fill the gaps in the monitoring network. It's done.
—
Eighty thousand light years away from the Vita Defense Line, in the starry sky, two bugs the size of a planet were lying in the void.
"Emil, Alba is going too far!"
"The two of us are king-level insects after all. We have been here for several days, and it doesn't even show up!"
"Even Queen Alia has never treated us so coldly, right?"
Garcia spoke loudly to Emil through the spiritual network, looking full of resentment.
Think about it, the great prince of the Zerg race, when had he been treated like this
Even Queen Aaliya has never left her alone and ignored her!
"Be careful what you say, Garcia. Don't call the emperor by his name!"
"Emil you?"
Garcia, who thought Emil would stand on his side and echo a few words, was instantly confused.
What's going on with this respectful look
The Emil in your memory is more face-conscious than yourself, right
"Garcia, don't you understand?"
"Understand what?"
"Have you not reconsidered why Queen Alia would launch the second Zerg Holy War for our Emperor Alba at all costs?"
"this"
Although Garcia is notoriously violent, that doesn't mean he's stupid.
After all, no matter what, this is a first-order king insect, and its intelligence is already at the top of the Zerg pyramid. It's just because of its extremely irritable personality that it doesn't like to think too much.
But at this moment, under Emil's reminder, Garcia immediately thought of the crux of the problem.
Yes, why would the Queen launch the second Zerg Holy War for Alba at all costs
You know, during the first Zerg Holy War, the number of King Insects was ten times what it is now. Even the first-order King Insects had more than ten!
But despite this, the war was still won by losing 80% of the King Insects.
No, the idea of winning the war is somewhat incorrect. If it hadn't been for the Shengwei Empire suddenly disappearing when it was about to win, the Zerg would probably no longer exist now.
But now, another civilization has appeared with the same strength as the Shengwei Empire, and the power of the Zerg has not even recovered to 30% of its peak.
In this case, Queen Alia should try her best to avoid confrontation with such a powerful civilization.
Because there is almost no hope of victory!
But why is Queen Alia so desperate for Alba that she directly launches the second Zerg Holy War
Like a mystery with no exit, Garcia has no idea what Aria is doing.
"I have a guess!"
Just as Garcia was thinking hard, Emil spoke!
"Have you ever considered a problem? Queen Alia is different from all our king bugs. She is the only female in the entire bug clan!"
"And Alba is the first male insect king to appear since the birth of the insect race!"
Within the spiritual network, Emil spoke with profound meaning.
This startled Garcia greatly, and his six eyeballs, which were as big as war stars, widened.
"You said it"
"Yes, that's what I mean, so don't show any disrespect to our emperor, otherwise Queen Alia will never protect you, and may even directly sacrifice you with a flag for Alba!"
"hiss"
At this moment, Garcia finally understood, why was Emil so respectful
It turns out that the key to the problem is here -
Just when Garcia shut her mouth and didn't dare to complain anymore, they were just over 10,000 light-years away.
Li Lizi was on the bridge of the Yinglong, repeating what she had done dozens of times during this period, searching all nearby anomalies for traces of the First-Order King Insect!
"Um?"
"This is?"
Quickly looking at the stream of data flashing before her eyes, Li Lizi suddenly discovered data that was completely different from the dozens of times before.
"Liz, did you find anything?"
Li Cangqiong, who had been standing by Li Lizi's side, noticed the changes in Li Lizi very keenly.
"It's not clear yet, but I did find something. What exactly is it? Let me analyze the data carefully!"
"good!"
Continuously operating the virtual interface, he extracted the abnormal parts in the data flow one by one and analyzed them.
Ten minutes passed quickly, and as time ticked by, Li Lizi's eyes became brighter and brighter!
"It has been determined that there are two huge bioenergy reactions 17,000 light-years away from us. Their wavelengths are similar to those of the third-order king insect, but their intensities are very different!"
"If the bioenergy reaction of the third-order king insect is like a pond, then this reaction is like a river. Even if it is not a first-order king insect, it is at least a second-order king insect, and there are two of them!"
Stopping what she was doing, Li Lizi said as if talking to herself.
two
Li Cangqiong was stunned for a moment, this was a little different from what he expected.
After all, humans had captured a fourth-order king insect alive before and obtained a lot of key information from it, and among them was a piece of information about the first-order king insect!
In the entire insect group, there are only three first-order king insects. Just like the three kings, they all have their own territories and will not appear together!
Are these two just second-order king insects
You must know that once you attack, you will completely expose the army. If it is really just two second-order king insects, wouldn't it be a mistake
"Record the location first, don't act in a hurry, we will continue to investigate according to the original plan!"
"Yes, Commander!"
After thinking for a moment, Li Cangqiong immediately made a decision and ordered to his adjutant.
Anyway, most of the Gal system has been explored, and the entire system can be explored in a month at most. There is no need to be reckless at this time.
After a month, if it is really impossible to detect other targets, it is not too late to go back and attack them.
At this time, Emil and Garcia still didn't know.
They just had a very lucky escape!
