The appearance of the giant insects made Lin Tao alert. Having experienced the disaster of giant insects in later generations, combined with the remaining brain memories of Elder Hongshi, he knew clearly that the giant insects would either not appear or appear in large groups.
This time, the giant insect that followed Wei Fei, the space candidate, and appeared on Mingyuan Star should be just the beginning.
Where will they appear next?
Lin Tao looked at the star map rising in the light curtain and frowned.
Lin Tao dispatched giant starships to the Mingyuan Star solar system and other nearby solar systems that were under his command to search for the whereabouts of the giant insect.
The new capital planet was also in a turbulent time at this time, and Lin Tao had not yet told the Grand Speaker the truth.
Woo! The door opened and Zheng Tuo walked in.
"Lin Tao, there are two giant spaceships carrying supplies coming. Should we let them land on Mingyuan Star or Star No. 2?" Zheng Tuo said.
Are they here? Lin Tao withdrew his thoughts. This batch of materials was what he had applied to the Speaker for to make memory metal. Hearing this, he nodded and said, "On Planet No. 2."
Mingyuan-2 has a large metal processing plant and when operating at full capacity, it is much faster than Mingyuan Star.
"Prepare a giant starry sky ship, I want to go there too." Lin Tao said again.
"Going to Planet No. 2 again?" Zheng Tuo frowned, "Lin Tao, now that you're back, spend more time managing this planet."
"What's wrong? Have you encountered a difficult situation?" Lin Tao asked suspiciously.
Before returning to Mingyuan Star, Lin Tao had heard Zheng Xun mention the management difficulties of Mingyuan Star. However, with his return, those difficult problems had disappeared without a trace.
On Mingyuan Star, Lin Tao's prestige is unmatched, and his return at this moment not only brought back people from the Yang Martial Arts School, but also brought back an important person - Lu Mengchen.
Lin Tao's existence brought stability to Mingyuan Star, Lu Mengchen's arrival made the people of Mingyuan Star very excited, and the arrival of Yang's Martial Arts School conveyed a new message to Mingyuan Star.
Gene enhancement drugs allow a person to possess superhuman powers. People need to vent, and Yang's Martial Arts School undoubtedly provides them with a good opportunity. Not only can they vent the excessive power in their bodies, but they can also learn the essence of Yang's Martial Arts School - the way of sincerity.
In time, Mingyuan Star will surely become the most powerful large force in the Human Interstellar Federation.
Of course, there is still a prerequisite, that is, Lin Tao must stay on Mingyuan Star, otherwise, countless villains will appear, just like Xie Annan before.
Suddenly thinking of Xie Annan, Lin Tao couldn't help but frowned: "Zheng Tuo, have you found Xie Annan's whereabouts?"
"Lin Tao, did you fail to read the information I sent you some time ago?" Zheng Tuo asked doubtfully.
Lin Tao was stunned and quickly raised his wrist to search through his watch. To be honest, he had been studying the development of new mechas with Tong Xuelin and Peng Haokong for some time and had not paid much attention to the affairs of Mingyuan Star.
Seeing Lin Tao's actions, Zheng Tuo's face twitched a few times, and he couldn't help but sighed: "Lin Tao, Mingyuanxing is your power after all, so you should spend more time here."
Lin Tao smiled and said, "Let you guys take care of the planet management. If you feel that you are short of manpower, let Zheng Xun help. He is quite capable."
He even planned to give up the matter of consolidating his own foundation, which made Zheng Tuo speechless.
Lin Tao saw through his thoughts and immediately put away his smile, his face solemn: "Zheng Tuo, we are very likely to face difficulties in the coming period of time, and not only our Mingyuan Star, I am afraid that the Grand Speaker will also be overwhelmed. During this period of time, you should contact the people of Zheng Xun Yang's Martial Arts School more often and train more mecha masters who are good at both ancient martial arts and mind thinking."
Hearing Lin Tao's solemn tone, Zheng Tuo's expression also tensed up: "Lin Tao, can you tell me the truth, will those giant insects really come back again?"
During this period, Lin Tao directly ordered him to send out all the giant starships to search for the whereabouts of the giant insects. However, after a few days, not to mention the giant insects, there was no detection of even a trace of abnormal news. The only thing that could make him pay attention was the mining of the strange objects that Lin Tao had mentioned before.
However, having said that, the new term "strange objects" made him feel strange. They were obviously some special resources and materials, but they had to be called "strange objects".
"Lin Tao, those strange things..."
Just as he was about to ask Lin Tao about the strange object, the door opened again with a hum, and a ferocious metal ball flew in, along with Lu Mengchen holding a stone ball in his hand.
As for the stone ball, after observing it for a period of time, Zheng Tuo has understood its identity. It is actually a consciousness that taught them how to practice mind cultivation.
"Mr. Lu, Lord Zeng, and Senior Zhuo." Zheng Tuo greeted them solemnly.
"What big star? Just call me Mengchen." Lu Mengchen covered her mouth and chuckled, saying modestly.
Zeng was carefree and hummed in a rather arrogant manner with a long nasal sound. Zhuo lay motionless in Lu Mengchen's palm without saying a word.
Lu Mengchen's words made Zheng Tuo smile. He could also see that Lu Mengchen seemed to have feelings for Lin Tao. Unfortunately, Lin Tao was like a piece of wood and did not feel this affection at all.
If they can be together, it will play a vital role for Mingyuanxing. Thinking of this, Zheng Tuo looked at Lin Tao and couldn't help but remind him again and again.
It’s a pity that Lin Tao simply ignored his look.
"What's going on? Did you find anything?" Lin Tao asked them.
"Lin Tao, I heard that your Grand Speaker has sent two giant spaceships carrying resources. Should we speed up the production of memory metal?" asked the ferocious metal sphere while flashing.
Memory metal is what Zhe values the most. Currently, Lin Tao can only produce two tons of metal. Although his strength has recovered to 18 points, this strength is still not as good as when Zhe was in the Great Interstellar Federation.
Therefore, it was very concerned about making more memory metals specifically for the mechanical family. As soon as the giant starry sky ship arrived, it immediately got the news.
"Yes." Lin Tao nodded: "I have already issued an order to unload them to Mingyuan No. 2."
"Then let's go over there right away." Zhe's core sphere glowed brightly, and he said impatiently.
"I'm just about to leave." Lin Tao nodded.
"Lin Tao, my master asked me to stay with you." At this time, Lu Mengchen spoke.
Lin Tao was shocked and looked at Zhuo's stone ball quickly.
"The appearance of those giant insects makes me feel uneasy." Zhuo said in a deep voice.
It turned out that it was the giant insect that caused it. Lin Tao immediately understood it, and at the same time he felt helpless inexplicably. He thought that Zhuo wanted to give him some advice on his brain power because he couldn't defeat the giant insect.
The power of brain thoughts becomes more and more difficult to improve as time goes by. Lin Tao is stuck at the 8 o'clock stage and has not been able to make the fluctuation of his brain thoughts reach the limit, making it impossible to break through. If Zhuo is willing to give him some pointers, once he gets through the shackles of 10 o'clock, Lin Tao's life will be much easier.
At this moment, Elder Hongshi's method of cultivating the power of mind still remained in his mind. This method might be different from Zhuo's, but it was a 10-20 point faster method of cultivation.
Unfortunately, this method cannot be used at his stage.
For brain power, there is a bottleneck every 5 points, which is also a shackle. Once this shackle is broken through, the subsequent practice will also change. Therefore, before breaking through the bottleneck of 10 points, he cannot use Elder Hongshi’s method to improve.
What a pity.
If it weren't for Elder Fentu and Elder Mengqin, he might have been able to preserve all of Elder Hongshi's thoughts and memories.
At this point, Lin Tao is helpless. After all, Elder Hongshi knows a lot of secrets of the Etna people. Once he knows them, he may not be able to leave Etna.
Suddenly thinking of Etna, Lin Tao's heart tightened again. After leaving Etna and returning to the Human Interstellar Federation, getting along with Zhe, the appearance of Zhuo, and the existence of the Shadow of Guda, Lin Tao understood that Elder Fentu would not help him casually, and he must have another purpose in helping him.
But what exactly is Elder Fentu's intention? "Lin Tao, when are we leaving?" Seeing Lin Tao suddenly become silent for a long time, Lu Mengchen couldn't help but ask.
As the Great Mingyuan of the Interstellar Federation, and having completely mastered the power of mind, Lu Mengchen's voice has a hint of power that can affect other people's thoughts. Zheng Tuo, who has not yet cultivated the power of mind, was intoxicated when he heard this voice. At this moment, his mind was full of Lu Mengchen's voice, and he couldn't extricate himself.
Lin Tao came back to his senses and saw Zheng Tuo's appearance. He couldn't help but cough heavily, which woke Zheng Tuo up on the spot.
"I...I...what's wrong with me?" Seeing Lu Mengchen's expression and Lin Tao's solemn eyes, Zheng Tuo's face was full of shame.
"Lu Mengchen, focus your thoughts and don't affect the people around you." Lin Tao said in a deep voice.
Lu Mengchen spat: "Who can my thoughts influence?" As she said that, she glared at Lin Tao with resentment, making Lin Tao quite embarrassed.
"Lin Tao, this is not her fault. My little disciple has just been promoted, and his strength has not yet been consolidated." At this time, Zhuo spoke.
"Promoted again?" Lin Tao's eyes twitched a few times, and he stared blankly at Lu Mengchen, who had a playful face, and his eyes swept over Zhuo's stone ball from time to time.
It's only been a few days? She's been promoted again? Previously, Lu Mengchen's mind power not only broke through the 10-point shackles, but also reached 13 points. Now, she's been promoted again. How strong is she now?
Lin Tao's heart trembled. In order to break through 8 points, he had thought of countless ways and practiced countless times, but unfortunately he had never been able to advance.
If this goes on, Lu Mengchen will definitely surpass him.
However, why did Zhuo increase Lu Mengchen's strength so quickly? Suddenly, Lin Tao narrowed his eyes.
