Emilia pursed her lips slightly: "Then, will bounty hunters help humans?"

"It seems possible at the moment," Guina squinted and smiled, "The principle given to us by the boss is to temporarily put aside the hostility with the empire and protect the Luofeng Alliance without exposing ourselves."

Emilia breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, my stress has been reduced by half in an instant."

Guina turned her head and looked out the door: "His Majesty is calling me. I'll excuse you now, Your Highness."

"Ah, wait!"

Emilia suddenly remembered something, got up and ran barefoot to the cabinet nearby and took out a pocket memory card.

"Give this to the bounty hunter for me. There is a video inside."

"Okay," Guina said with a smile, "I will definitely deliver it to you... Can you satisfy my curiosity? What's inside?"

"His birthday blessing video," Emilia shrugged, "He celebrated my birthday, so naturally I wanted to send him some blessings, and today is it."

Guina nodded with a smile.

She did not remind her of the cruel fact that most of the information her boss left in Luofeng was false.

"You are interested."

"Go ahead, don't let that omnimachine wait too long," Emilia curled her lips slightly, "Fortunately, you controlled him directly as soon as he arrived, otherwise I was really afraid that I wouldn't be able to help myself and go up and chop him down."

"Don't worry," Guina said softly, "Omnic machines of this level can't make any waves in front of us."

Countdown to Insect Swarm: 68 Standard Galactic Days.

The military's "insect tide response" command center - a five-kilometer-long super aircraft carrier.

On the bridge, on the command platform of this super aircraft carrier, Yang Ming was wearing a dark green imperial military uniform, holding a lightsaber in his hand, and kept making slashing gestures.

In front of him, the projector projected a sixth-order adult insect and a fifth-order adult insect.

About half a month ago, their committee temporarily passed a resolution and issued a batch of temporary strengthening injections to various fleets of the Imperial Military Department.

These diluted injections can barely be used by physically strong adult soldiers, and they can temporarily gain a combat effectiveness comparable to half a Gris.

The training items for soldiers usually only include various firearms and shipboard subjects. Some time ago, lightsaber courses and cold weapon close combat subjects have been added.

Now, every large ship in the empire is equipped with 300 new lightsabers, and two diluted strengthening injections are bundled on the hilt of each lightsaber.

This is for emergency use, and it is also the last resort for the soldiers on the ship to counterattack when they come into close contact with the insect swarm and the insect swarm breaks into the ship.

Yang Ming was not optimistic about this method.

But when the military requested a live broadcast class for all military officers to explain how to kill bugs, Yang Ming did not refuse and happily appeared here to tell everyone about the bugs' weaknesses.

"The primary weakness is their foot segments.

"When the Zerg enter the ship, they will also be affected by simulated gravity. If their legs are destroyed, their ability to move will be restricted to a certain extent, and they may even actively choose to exit the ship and go to space for remote combat.

.

"I believe that everyone has read enough learning materials about insect swarms in the past year.

"But I still want to remind everyone, don't give up the long-range weapons in your hands until the critical moment. In terms of close combat, we humans are indeed far inferior to the Zerg..."

At the other end of the live broadcast, Yang Ming gave serious instructions.

At the other end of the live broadcast, in the bridges and lounges of the imperial warships, the imperial soldiers were sitting at attention, their eyes shining with extremely eager light.

In the star field that the directional orbit leads to near the Saka star, in the T32 battle group of the local defense force, which has gathered more than 600 warships, the group of young people from Yang Ming's private army are in high spirits at this moment.

Their lord had already told them these words.

That's still on the surface of the planet, not in this vast universe.

Peterson stood in front of the porthole with his hands behind his back, looking at the messages that appeared in the captain's commander's dedicated group chat, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

On his chest, a special badge is particularly eye-catching.

It was a silver-white skull, with blazing flames burning around it, and those empty eyes that were shining with light, as if they were black holes that would not evaporate.

…

Countdown to the Insect Swarm: 36 Standard Galactic Days.

A planet on the edge of the empire.

Amidst the slight noise, Catherine stood in front of a railing and looked up at the dozens of gates that were slowly closing above.

They have moved into independently run 'rebel-only' shelters.

The ventilation system began to work at full capacity, and the warm air blowing from the side blew Catherine's hair.

Several men and women appeared behind.

"Boss, the shielding devices have been activated. It is most likely safe here."

"The United States of America is really awesome. They gave us so much equipment for free. However, they probably want us to consume the empire's resources. I'm not very grateful to them."

Someone said: "I think it was not given to us by the United States of America, but by the financial backers behind our leader."

"A scandal just broke out in the Free United States last week. There are more than 20 extremely poor administrative stars. The quality of the shelters they built has problems, and the number of shielding devices they are equipped with is not enough. They have directly abandoned billions of people. They

If you don’t have enough equipment, how can you give it to us for free?”

"Didn't the Free United States sell shielding devices for half the galaxy?"

"That is normal business behavior. They gave their country's military a 40% discount on the purchase price, which has made the New Federation and the Guel Alliance very dissatisfied."

"But fortunately, the United Free States will not face the insect swarm in the first round. Judging from the direction of the insect's attack, the United Free Republic and the Gu'el Alliance are both outside the deep offensive, and there is a thick layer of human civilization on the periphery. Territory serves as a barrier.”

"The New Federation is really miserable. They have old and new grudges with the insects. Half of the insect swarms are targeting the New Federation."

"Fighting against the swarm is different from fighting against the empire. The New Federation's planetary defense system is the best in the galaxy."

"The Empire has to face two swarm swarms."

A girl asked in a low voice: "As super-modifiers, don't we need to fight?"

The people who were chatting fell silent instantly.

Catherine lowered her head and sighed, then gently grasped forward with her gloved right hand, as if she wanted to catch some dust.

"No need, the empire has no place for us for the time being, and we don't have enough ships to go out."

The mood of several people has obviously become much lower.

Dang, Dang sounds came one after another, and dozens of gates were closed at the same time.

Catherine suddenly said: "If a swarm of insects arrives on this planet, we can't just sit and wait to die."

"yes!"

…

Countdown to Insect Tide: 19th Galactic Standard Day.

Emperor Star, Palace Module, Palace Main Hall.

Rapid and messy footsteps sounded outside the palace, and a large number of elders, nobles, and ministers from various departments rushed into the palace.

The old emperor also had a serious look on his face. He floated from the back door in a suspended seat and sat down on the high platform.

"Tell me, what's the emergency?"

The most quick-talking elder in the Presbytery immediately reported:

"Your Majesty! Zerg scouts have appeared on the border! There are about hundreds of thousands of high-level adults who can only achieve three-dimensional invisibility. They have entered the empire's star field and dispersed in all directions! They should be spying on our military arrangements and carrying out their operations. Tactical arrangements!”

"A hundred thousand scouts?" The old emperor frowned tightly.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the working mechanism of the insect swarm's ability to jump is that the individual insect swarms combine into battleships, and they combine to form hundreds of small battleships and break into our border!"

The old emperor looked at the two supreme commanders of the military.

"Your Majesty, our mobile fleet has begun to intercept all directions. Currently... the news just came in the last second, one-third of the Zerg warships have been intercepted! Eighty percent of the opponent's warships have been marked. !”

"They are looking for our fleet, Your Majesty!"

The emperor frowned and covered his forehead: "Is Imperial Guard 2.0 ready?"

"We are ready to intervene in the empire's unified network at any time."

"Well, don't be anxious yet," the old emperor said, "We still have to believe in the Imperial Guard system that has led the empire through tens of thousands of years. As a supplement, Imperial Guard 2.0 can make us feel more at ease... My knight is here. where?"

"Your Majesty, what Knight Commander Hanton means is that he may also be the Queen's target, so he cannot come to the Emperor Star to escort her, and he cannot stay in the command center. He has already rushed to the frontline troops."

"Is he the target?"

The old emperor raised his eyebrows slightly: "To convey my will, I said that the empire needs a hero like him to stand up. As long as he can repel the big queen, the empire will give him all honors."

"Yes! Your Majesty!"

The old emperor exhaled softly. He was not very good at resisting pressure, but now he felt the tremendous pressure from the powerful alien life form.

"These damn bugs!"

The emperor spoke dirty words.
Chapter completed!
