The nobles, large and small, in Xingdu are in complete chaos.
Like a signal, after the Zerg appeared in the palace, more Zerg appeared in the Star City, some of which even had the appearance of people they were familiar with.
Most of them were nobles...
Even in the families of Lan Yao and Sang Huaizhou, there are clansmen who have turned into insects.
In the Empire, only Alphas have the right to inherit, and this alone has led countless Betas and Omegas to take the risk, plunging the entire planet into complete chaos.
Perhaps the sight of those who once looked down on them fleeing in terror was too delightful, for the first thing these newborn insects did was bite off the head of their own blood relatives.
Wen Xihe came from a remote star, so naturally she didn't have such troubles.
The Star City is in chaos. Insects have appeared in the homes of the nobles to varying degrees, and there are also large insect armies coming from other places.
What was once the empire's safest star city has now become the most unsafe place.
The military responded quickly. Jiang Yan and the senior students from the mecha department temporarily joined the Fifth Legion, Wen Xihe also entered the front line of the Fifth Legion, and Lan Yao followed the Second Legion.
The Imperial Military Academy has also entered a state of emergency. Freshmen are still in charge of logistics, while all students above the third year have been temporarily assigned to the team fighting against the Zerg.
Wen Xihe saw Bai Jinyu in her advance team. Bai Jinyu had changed into combat gear, and her smiling, confident demeanor was gone.
Everyone knows that the eldest prince was killed by the old emperor who had turned into a monster, and the Bai family's investment has completely failed.
Bai Jinyu had no time to deal with these things, and Lou Miaoan was also recruited into the Fifth Legion's temporary squad because of his information processing ability.
The first thing upon entering the advance team was to be taught by someone from the legion how to unlock Alpha's second talent.
After killing countless Zerg, Bai Jinyu finally met Wen Xihe in the rest area... Bai Jinyu wiped the sweat from her face and then asked Wen Xihe, "Where is Cen Yu?"
“…I don’t know.” Wen Xihe took a sip of water. “There’s been no news from him.”
Upon hearing this, Bai Jinyu did not ask any further questions.
Outside the main star, large and small Zerg are pouring into the Star Capital.
As a "successor" who still has reason, Li Chonghe's best choice under these circumstances is, of course, to disguise his identity and lead everyone to eliminate the insectoids that have entered the Star City.
It wasn't that no one was curious about where Li Xialu had gone, but Li Chonghe always had only one explanation for it—
My sister has tragically died.
Huo Shen remained noncommittal. He may have already guessed something, but he said nothing and tacitly approved of Li Chonghe's act of concealing his identity.
After all, he felt that the people of the Empire could not withstand such a blow.
The Second Prince's forces reacted swiftly the day Li Chonghe joined the battlefield. Everyone knew that Li Chonghe had temporarily joined Huo Shen's Fifth Legion to face the insectoids above the Star Capital.
Those without combat capabilities entered the underground bunkers. When Cen Yu finally arrived at Star Capital, he found that the once prosperous main star had become a mess.
The old emperor occupied the palace, and the huge, ugly insect was not similar to the king insect in Cen Yu's memory. Instead, it looked more like the kind of monster that had been smashed and reassembled after being shown in the simulator.
The Imperial Military Academy became the temporary command post of the Fifth Legion.
When Cen Yu and Chi Jiazhen, the "fugitive wanted persons," arrived at the military academy gate, they immediately aroused the corps' vigilance, especially after they knew what Chi Jiazhen was.
There is no room for a second Queen Mushroom here.
Finally, the adjutant granted permission to let Cen Yu and Chi Jiazhen in.
Huo Shen, who was in the conference room, had obvious dark circles under his eyes and some stubble. The conference room was filled with smoke. When he saw Cen Yu, he stubbed out his cigarette. "I didn't expect you guys to come back."
He thought for a moment and finally said what he hadn't finished saying on the garbage planet: "This is our first formal meeting. I am Huo Shen."
Cen Yu really didn't expect that the sleeping guy in the simulator was actually Huo Shen.
Huo Shen had already turned on the filtration system in the conference room, and the smoke quickly dissipated. He then looked at Chi Jiazhen, who was following behind Cen Yu, and said, "You actually dare to enter the Empire."
Chi Jiazhen didn't care about Huo Shen's attitude.
Huo Shen had already figured out Cen Yu's arrangements, but the problem was Chi Jiazhen... After all, the other party was a Zerg. Although it seemed that they didn't have much malice towards humans at the moment, Huo Shen still dared not take the risk.
But if they really wanted to kill the old emperor, Chi Jiazhen would obviously be indispensable.
In the end, he decided to let Cen Yu and Chi Jiazhen join the advance team and act according to circumstances.
...
Most of the original buildings in Xingdu have collapsed.
Cen Yu piloted his mecha, watching the insectoids appear above the Star City.
The moment these mechs appeared, the Zerg swarmed forward... Cen Yu raised his mechanical arm and took down these Zerg minions one by one with a single shot.
There were too many Zerg in the sky.
After these small soldiers disappeared, more Zerg swarmed up. Wen Xihe's ability was to create something like a spider web, which stuck all the Zerg in mid-air, making them unable to move, and then let them be eliminated one by one.
The Imperial Military Academy is located near West 3, where the number of Zerg is not too high.
The largest number of them are in the East 17 district, which is near the Royal Palace.
Cen Yu and his companions' main task was to find any survivors who had not hidden within the Star Capital, and at the same time eliminate any insectoid creatures they might encounter along the way.
Finally, they found the survivors who were temporarily hiding in a locker in a residential area.
