The surrounding area was filled with blinding white incandescent light.
Jiang Zheyu was on Shan Xun's back, with her arms tightly wrapped around his neck and her legs tightly hooked around Shan Xun's slender waist.
With Jiang Zheyu on his back, Shan Xun sprinted quickly. Jiang Zheyu only felt a gust of wind beside his ear, while Shan Xun seemed to have already planned the escape route.
In an instant, a loud alarm sounded throughout the starship.
This has been discovered.
The urgent and loud alarm seemed to stir up everyone's tension, and Jiang Zheyu felt his heart pounding violently.
Suddenly, many more orcs appeared on the road ahead.
Shan Xun quickly raised his gun. Those people had only shown a corner of their bodies and hadn't even reacted before their heads were blown off.
Another sprint, like a gust of wind, swept by.
The entire starship suddenly began to shake violently. The orcs of the Second Legion of the Negative Second District had begun to pursue the starship, and massive artillery fire landed directly on the starship's defensive shields, causing the entire starship to sway.
The sounds of laser cannons and various orc bodies falling to the ground were a chaotic mix that reached my ears.
Jiang Zheyu felt as if she had just experienced a fierce attack by firearms. Then, Shan Xun carried her and sprinted quickly. The sound of the wind whistling past Jiang Zheyu's ears made her feel very light.
Shan Xun, carrying Jiang Zheyu on his back, suddenly turned around the corner and stopped abruptly.
This is one of the hatches inside the starship.
The single inquiry stopped because there was a person standing at the hatch at that moment.
That person was none other than Si Yu.
He had been standing there for who knows how long; it seemed he had been waiting for them to arrive.
"Yu Yu, please stay?" Si Yu gently raised his dark green eyes and looked at Jiang Zheyu. "Your mental strength is the highest here. As long as you want to stay, no one can stop you. Of course, if you want to leave, I can't stop you either."
He is standing here right now.
Jiang Zheyu used his mental power to investigate and also discovered Si Yu's mental power, so it is indeed him who is here now.
Shan Xun also came using his own body. Their mental strength was lower than Jiang Zheyu's, so Jiang Zheyu could make a decision quickly, whether she wanted to or not. Her mental strength could control both of them.
Jiang Zheyu didn't hesitate at all, okay? He was just about to use his mental power to knock Si Yu unconscious.
A gunshot rang out.
Jiang Zheyu paused, his mental energy not being used.
All that could be seen was Si Yu pulling out a gun and shooting himself in the chest, blood splattering out.
Jiang Zheyu was slightly bewildered: "What, what are you doing?"
"I just wanted to see if there would be any worry in your eyes when I was injured?" Si Yu smiled faintly, blood seeping from the corner of his lips.
To his disappointment, there was no worry in Jiang Zheyu's eyes.
No, there was no worry in her eyes. Only surprise, confusion, and shock.
“You didn’t need to go to all that trouble,” Jiang Zheyu said slowly after a moment of silence.
"Yu Yu, please stay?" Si Yu looked at her with his dark green eyes reddening. "Why can't you stay?"
"The bullet missed." Shan Xun's indifferent voice broke in at this moment, "It missed by 0.1 centimeters, and did not hit the heart."
The next second, he spoke with a mocking and malevolent tone: "Why didn't you shoot through your own heart? You deliberately missed, what are you pretending to be pitiful for?"
Trying to gain the pity of females? How pathetic!
Jiang Zheyu paused slightly upon hearing Shan Xun's words.
Si Yu's face darkened further, and he let out a very soft chuckle: "Heh..."
It's such an eyesore.
Jiang Zheyu heard many footsteps behind her and realized that it must be Si Yu's people coming.
She was about to use her mental power when she was suddenly pushed back by another, strange mental power.
She sensed another fluctuation of mental energy, a fluctuation belonging to the Zerg, and not just one, but many, many more!
It looked like they were densely packed together.
If the insects that attacked the research base were just a dense swarm surrounding the researchers, now there are so many of these insects that it's like an entire planet.
At this moment, all the insects' mental energy fell on Jiang Zheyu's mental energy. Jiang Zheyu's mental energy, which was originally being defended, became slightly dazed due to the swarming attack of the insects.
The entire starship suddenly went black, and everyone's personal computers went black as well.
The entire starship plummeted rapidly.
Not only this starship is like this, but all the warships are like this.
All of them were interfered with by mental energy, lost control, became chaotic, and fell down one after another.
Not only here, but all the planets were plunged into darkness, and all the star networks were paralyzed due to mental disorder.
In just a moment, Jiang Zheyu heard all sorts of noises and screams around him.
If this starship crashes, everyone on board will die.
"Damn it!" Si Yu realized what was happening and rushed off towards the starship's control room.
Danxun also rushed to the control room at the same time.
Jiang Zheyu strengthened his mental defenses to bring himself back to his senses from that daze.
The insects seemed to be targeting her, deliberately attacking her in swarms.
When she came to her senses, she saw Si Yu turning on the backup emergency power in the starship's cockpit, operating various complex control instruments, and then forcefully pressing a button.
There lay an orc on the ground, lifeless, seemingly killed by the Zerg's mental power.
Shan Xun stood here with Jiang Zheyu on his back.
"What's going on?" Jiang Zheyu asked, puzzled.
"The Queen Insect has awakened." Shan Xun frowned deeply. His spiritual power sensed the insects outside. Ordinary insect swarms wouldn't attack this many. The fact that such a large-scale attack had appeared in this place could only mean that the Queen Insect had awakened. "The cosmic insect tide has arrived."
A cosmic swarm of insects has arrived, paralyzing all systems in the universe. The insects continue to multiply throughout the universe and on planets. Only by killing the queen insect can this relentless swarm that threatens to engulf planets stop.
Jiang Zheyu was stunned. Why did the Insect Queen wake up ahead of schedule?
No, that's not it. She simply didn't remember the exact time of the cosmic insect swarm in the novel.
Is it this time now?
"System, aren't I supposed to have the strongest mental power? How come I'm still being bothered by these bugs?" Jiang Zheyu hurriedly asked the system. "And why do I feel like these bugs are deliberately targeting me?"
Because a single insect's mental attack poses no threat to the Jiangzhe fish, they swarm to attack.
Jiang Zheyu's heart was utterly cold.
