Swoosh! A secondary space-time passage appeared in the starry sky, and Zhe emerged from it controlling the high-speed ship.

Just after entering the starry sky, before Zhe could search around, Lin Tao's watch rang. He looked up and saw that it was a call from the Grand Speaker.

Connected.

"Lin Tao, where are you now?"

In the watch, the voice of Grand Speaker Chen Huyuan was very calm. Lin Tao frowned slightly. He was not from the mechanical clan, nor was he a stone ball. He could hear that there was something unusual hidden behind the Grand Speaker's calm words.

The brain-powered body can’t deal with the giant insect?

Or has a stronger giant insect been discovered? "Grand Speaker, we have arrived at the Qingkong Solar System." Seeing Lin Tao frowning and silent, Lu Mengchen on the side quickly responded and patted Lin Tao's shoulder gently to make him come back to his senses.

The Qingkong Solar System is one of the ten solar systems where evolved giant insects were discovered.

"It's Mengchen. Are you also going on the expedition with Lin Tao?" Chen Huyuan suddenly heard Lu Mengchen's voice and laughed, with a bit of reluctance in his smile.

"Hmm?" After hearing this reluctance, Lu Mengchen immediately understood that the Speaker must have encountered trouble again.

"Grand Speaker, what happened?" Lin Tao asked directly.

"I encountered some small troubles." Chen Huyuan sighed.

A small trouble? Lin Tao smiled and shook his head. The "small trouble" that could be mentioned by the Grand Speaker of the Interstellar Federation could definitely cause an earthquake in the entire Interstellar Federation.

"Lin Tao, didn't you send back a recipe for dealing with the giant insect corpse before?" Chen Huyuan said.

Lin Tao nodded. It was when he saw Zhe dealing with the giant insect's corpse that he remembered this and quickly sent the recipe back.

Suddenly, Lin Tao's heart moved. Could it be that because of the strange insect in Yang Yanzong's body, the formula was ineffective against the giant insect with red patterns?

"Han Feng encountered several groups of giant insects. Those giant insects were not very strong and had brain-powered bodies. Han Feng could easily deal with them." Having said this, Chen Huyuan obviously paused for a while.

Lin Tao and Lu Mengchen listened quietly without saying a word. Even Zhe, who had just entered the Qingkong Solar System and was searching for the whereabouts of the giant insect, remained silent.

"You should also know that our scientists are very interested in the giant insects. At their request, we did not let Han Feng destroy the giant insect corpses, and sent out a giant starry sky ship to bring them back to the new capital star." Chen Huyuan continued.

Alas~ Lin Tao shook his head speechlessly. He probably guessed what was going to happen next.

Sure enough, Chen Huyuan's next words made him raise his hand and hit the armrest on the spot.

"On the way back, the Starry Sky Giant Ship encountered giant insects..." Chen Huyuan said with melancholy: "The Starry Sky Giant Ship and the giant insect corpse it carried were snatched back by them and devoured on the spot."

"Giant insects can affect communications. Since even the giant starry sky ship was swallowed up, how did you get the news?" Lu Mengchen was puzzled.

"After the spaceship disappeared, we sent people over to find out what happened." Chen Huyuan sighed, "There were two giant insects huddled together in that spaceship. After they devoured it, they began to evolve on the spot."

As he was speaking, Lin Tao's watch beeped a few times, and a video was sent to him.

Click to take a look.

The content of the video is two swarms of insects huddled together. The swarms are not far apart, about the length of an ordinary space battleship.

"Huh?" When Zhe saw this distance, he couldn't help but scream, and Lin Tao's pupils also contracted.

"What's wrong?" Lu Mengchen asked puzzledly.

On the other end of the line, Chen Huyuan was also confused.

"The distance between them is shrinking." Lin Tao said. In the video, the two swarms of insects were slowly getting closer, but the speed was not slow, so the people observing the swarms at the time could not see it.

But Lin Tao had fought against countless insects in his later life, and Zhe was from a mechanical race of the Great Interstellar Federation. This situation had already been recorded in the database.

"They are planning to merge." The core sphere of Zhe emitted a rapid light.

"Fusion?" Chen Huyuan said in shock.

"What fusion? What's going on?" Lu Mengchen also screamed.

Swish! Just then, the hatch of the bridge opened, and Zhuo's dark ball flew over. The video that Lin Tao clicked on turned into a light screen, hovering in the air. As soon as Zhuo came in, he immediately saw the content that was being played repeatedly.

"Huh?" Zhuo was also surprised when he saw the two insect swarms. The black sphere flew in front of Lin Tao with a whoosh. "Strange, why do I feel that these two insect swarms are moving?"

"Senior Zhuo." Chen Huyuan hurriedly addressed him respectfully when Zhuo suddenly arrived. Although the method of mind cultivation was handed over by Lin Tao, in the final analysis, this information still came from Zhuo's hands.

In other words, Zhuo is the person who taught the entire Human Interstellar Federation the method of mind cultivation. Even though he is the Grand Speaker of the Human Interstellar Federation, Chen Huyuan has to show respect to Zhuo.

"Yes, the two insect swarms are moving. Zhe said they are in the fusion stage." Lin Tao nodded.

"Oh?" Zhuo Yulu was surprised: "Mechanical people, tell me, what will happen after they merge?"

Being pointed out by Zhuo, the metal ball flashed a few times and said, "Generally speaking, giant insects evolve by devouring, but sometimes special circumstances may occur."

"Fusion is when two insect swarms of equal strength evolve at the same time. Due to their close distance, they are affected by each other and slowly shrink. Finally, they merge with each other and eventually transform into a new giant insect."

"What? So many insects merged into one?" Lu Mengchen was greatly surprised.

Chen Huyuan was also shocked: "Zhen, can you tell me, how strong is the giant insect that has merged into one?"

Zhuo didn't seem to have heard of the relevant situation. The black round ball floated in the air for a few times and listened quietly. However, Zhe also fell into silence at this time. The light flashed by the metal ball was rapid and intense, as if it was performing high-speed calculations.

Lin Tao frowned and said in a deep voice: "The giant insect formed by this fusion will probably be two to three levels stronger than the original one."

Lin Tao stretched out his hand and pointed at the swarm of insects on the light screen: "Looking at the situation of these two swarms of insects, they should be in the third evolution state. After merging into one, its strength is about 40-60 points."

Hiss! Hiss! As soon as Lin Tao finished speaking, his 40-60 points of strength made Lu Mengchen and Chen Huyuan gasp on the spot. So far, except for Zhuo, the strongest mind practitioners they had seen, that is, those three-eyed people, were only more than 30 points.

40-60, it was beyond their imagination! After knowing the strength division of mind power, they all understood that every point increase in mind power was almost double the previous point. Not to mention 60 points, even 40 points of power alone could move them.

"Lin Tao, is there any basis for your judgment?" Zhuo suddenly asked in a deep voice.

"Lin Tao is right. According to the answer I calculated, it is estimated to be between 48 and 56." At this time, Zeng stopped calculating and spoke.

As a member of the mechanical clan, Zhe's data is more reliable, because the data of the mechanical clan are obtained through a large amount of calculations.

"Lin Tao, how...how do we get rid of these insect swarms?" Chen Huyuan's voice was trembling, and he was obviously very scared.

Putting aside Lin Tao and Zeng's speculations, even Han Feng and others cannot deal with this group of giant insects that are currently in the evolutionary stage.

After discovering the insect swarm, he immediately asked Han Feng to change direction and wanted to get rid of them. However, although Han Feng and others received indirect guidance from Zhuo and their strength increased, they were still unable to penetrate the skin of these two insect swarms even with their brain-thinking bodies to enhance their strength.

That's why he planned to ask Lin Tao for help, but he didn't expect this result.

A giant insect with a strength of 48-56 points cannot be dealt with unless Zhuo takes action personally.

"Haha~ Interesting." Zhuo laughed and asked, "Mechanic, tell me, how long will it take for these two insect swarms to merge?"

"Depending on their distance and moving speed, it will take about half a year to enter the fusion stage. After entering the fusion stage, it will take three to six months depending on the characteristics of these giant insects themselves." Zhe said.

"No." Hearing this, Lin Tao immediately retorted: "These giant insects with red patterns evolve too quickly. I suspect that their fusion speed should also increase. Hmm... According to my guess, it should be possible for them to complete the fusion within two or three months."

Six months of getting closer, plus two to three months of integration, in other words, about eight or nine months.

Thinking that in eight or nine months, a giant insect with terrifying strength would appear in the Human Interstellar Federation, especially that this giant insect was born under his own command, Chen Huyuan was stunned for a long time.

"Eight or nine months?" Zhuo's dark ball shook a few times and asked, "Lin Tao, mechanical people, are you sure that after the fusion of these two insect swarms, the giant insect born will not have a strength of more than 60 points?"

Lin Tao nodded: "The giant insects that formed these two swarms are not strong, and can only form B-level vicious insects in the end." After a pause, Lin Tao continued: "However, if the swarm's own strength reaches D-level and this situation still occurs, the giant insect's level will be upgraded to A-level, and the strength of A-level vicious insects is between 60-70."

After hearing about the strength of the A-level vicious insect, Zhuo's black sphere suddenly stayed in the air for a while, as if he was also surprised by this number.

After a while, Zhuo asked again: "How are giant insects above level A classified?"

Lin Tao shook his head: "I don't have any information on giant insects above level A." As he said that, Lin Tao looked at the ferocious metal sphere.

“Don’t look at me.” Zhe’s core sphere flashed with light: “In the Great Interstellar Federation, there are only giant insects that have evolved seven times. If we classify them by strength, they are the A-level giant insects mentioned by Lin Tao.”

"So that's how it is." After hearing what Lin Tao and Zhe said, Zhuo suddenly spoke.
