No matter how strong their physique is, it's impossible to withstand the self-destruction of the insect queen. At that time, even if Mei Shi and the others have a thousand reasons to justify themselves, probably no one will believe them.

It was only thanks to Julian's arrival at this time that they had the enemy's mech, which at least gave them a reason.

It was precisely because Mingyi had anticipated this point that he was able to control Julian to follow behind them.

At the critical moment, he appeared and quickly flew away from the explosion site with Mei Shi and Mu Chen.

Although Mei Shi and Ming Yi worked together to block all the attacks, Julian's mecha had inherent characteristics, and he was also mentally unstable under Ming Yi's control at the time.

What else could Julian, who was completely controlled by Mingyi and was in a daze, know besides escaping in his mecha? When the time comes, he can just shift the blame and say that Julian was good at it, and the other party can't say anything about it.

In particular, the greatest strength of this mech called "Deep Sea Dream" is its invisibility.

This doesn't refer to the kind of stealth that radar can't detect, but rather the kind of stealth that's invisible at the physical level.

This makes it even easier to shift the blame.

We ran away before the queen insect exploded, isn't that reason enough?

If you can't see it, that's your problem.

Hearing this, Mingmei couldn't help but praise Julian's mecha as truly excellent.

"Julian's mecha is really excellent!" Mu Chen couldn't help but praise his mecha. Mingmei, who knew the truth, couldn't help but laugh out loud. She then told Mu Chen how Julian's mecha came to be.

Such powerful mechs, they all belong to Dad.

Louis, as the father, could only smile wryly.

It's one thing for her own mech to be taken out by her son, but the fact that their relationship was exposed in front of the entire interstellar audience was also completely unexpected.

Although he had known about his son's relationship for a long time, he had considered Julian's age and the other party's identity and did not announce it directly to the public.

After all, the young couple is currently dating. If they eventually get together, it will be a wonderful story. However, if they break up and it's not amicable and causes some trouble, it won't just be a lovers' quarrel. It could easily escalate to the diplomatic level.

“When I was Julian’s age, I was still studying like a fool in military school.” Louis, a man with more experience, spoke modestly about the commotion his son was causing. His secretary, Joan, standing beside him, simply smiled and remained silent.

He had heard Secretary-General Chen mention the President's "great achievements" during his school days.

"Sir, what should the Presidential Palace's official account say about this? Everyone seems to want to know your opinion."

"May Qilan Star successfully overcome the disaster."

...

However, while everyone was celebrating the rescue of Qilan Star and gossiping about Lu Xiaoyao and Julian's relationship, the Fifth Legion, which had not arrived at Qilan Star for the rescue, seemed to be in big trouble.

"This wormhole is a bit strange." Wang Wenfei was the first to notice something was wrong.

The senior colleague standing next to her looked at Wang Wenfei in surprise upon hearing her words and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Just now, news came from Qilan Star that the Zerg have been completely defeated. The Zerg there have been almost entirely wiped out, with only those who had scattered and fled earlier remaining. However, they did not flee in this direction."

According to Wang Wenfei and her team's speculation, the wormhole they are currently guarding is the real reason why the Zerg were able to appear silently behind the Canglan Starfield.

After all, when they sent back the message, it was confirmed by the Sixth Legion, who had not discovered the existence of a wormhole here.

On one hand, no one knew about it, and on the other hand, the Fifth Legion actually wiped out several waves of Zerg that emerged from here.

This fully confirms their previous suspicions that this is the key passage through which the Zerg were able to invade directly without alerting the Sixth Legion.

However, after waiting here for so long, Wang Wenfei noticed something unusual.

"Not long ago, Qilan Star said that the Zerg had already begun to collapse and retreat. You said this place is not far from Qilan Star, so why are there no signs of Zerg here?"

"You mean, if the Zerg fail, where will they go if they don't return the way they came?"

"Even the queen has self-destructed, leaving the remaining scattered Zerg without a leader. They may not be able to find their way back."

Wang Wenfei's statement is actually just a simulation; the fact that the Zerg did not retreat along the original route does not necessarily mean there is a problem.

"It's not impossible. But I think the queen's reaction was also very strange. She chose to self-destruct rather than retreat! It seems that there must be something on Qilan Star that is fatally attractive to the Zerg."

Especially the urge to destroy everything.

...

The war on Qilan Star has finally come to a temporary end.

On Mingmei's side, a group of people flew back to the base once again. Those who needed to rest rested, and those who needed to undergo checks did so.

They arrived from the Sixth Legion base. The supplies and troops they brought were immediately put into use to rebuild Qilan Star's air defense technology.

At this moment, the devastated Qilan Star could no longer withstand a second wave of impact.

Everyone took out their supplies. It was the first time Mingmei had ever seen mechs used to transport supplies.

Inside the mecha, the pilot was actually equipped with a bunch of spatial twisters!

This kind of nested doll-like transportation is truly rare for Mingmei.

Even though technology is advanced now and interstellar travel is popular, most of the few supplies transported are still used for military purposes.

Even courier services rarely use them for shipping. The consequences of losing such a device, or in the event of war or an accident involving the person carrying it, would be unimaginable!

But who could have imagined it?

Lu Xiaoyao and the others never dared to imagine that the Zerg were the same; this time, the transport consisted of a bunch of combat mechs!

However, judging from the extent of the damage to the mech, it's clear that it's been through a lot of fighting.

Jian Yunhe, whose mech was the most severely damaged, finally managed to crawl out of the mech. Before he could even speak, everything went black, and his entire body felt drained of strength. He was about to collapse.

Fortunately, Lu Xiaoyao, who had come to inventory the supplies, reacted quickly and grabbed him. A robot that had just passed by, carrying a bunch of nutrient solutions, grabbed two bottles of nutrient solutions.

robot:????

"Have a drink first, there's no need to rush."

Jian Yunhe knelt on the ground, completely abandoning her usual image as a proud and privileged young woman.

As she drank, she glanced around; the Qilan Star had been saved.

However, the surface damage is indeed quite severe.

Amidst the ruins and rubble, her comrades, bandaged and worn, were still busily moving about. She couldn't help but sigh once again at the cruelty of war.
