A is in StarCraft, just disembarked from the Zerg Prince spaceship.

***********

......

Since it wasn't convenient to talk in the corner of the lobby, they moved to a private room on the top floor.

Lan opened a mental energy canopy to envelop the room; as long as no one's mental energy surpassed his, no human or insect could hear their conversation.

The star map of Lehrnia floated in the center of the room.

Blue and Bishon stood facing each other across the star map.

The previous raging tide receded, leaving only cold, hard rocks.

Bishen has calmed down.

He rested his hands on the edge of the star map control panel, his brows furrowed slightly, his gaze calm, showing no sign of agitation.

The refinement of his noble family returned to his body, but there was a chill deep in his eyes, more piercing than when he was furious.

"I'll go back secretly. The Ninth Legion is my base of operations, and it's time to repay the favors owed to my family by several legions and the old aristocratic families on the border. The Mantis family still holds considerable prestige, and they will stand by our side."

Lan stood in the shadows. The wound on his mouth had healed, the strange vertical pupils had disappeared, and hatred made his eyes glow, as bright as fluorescent blue electric arcs.

He nodded without further ado: "Alright, I'll grant you legion command authorization later. I'll return in a few days to intimidate Orion. Once we're both gone, he'll be lawless among the humans."

Bishen said, "Actually, it's fine if you don't go back. I can handle things with the Legion."

"If I go back and show my face, our chances of winning will be much greater." Some wavering families might have two different attitudes depending on whether they see the Crown Prince or not.

"Okay." Bishen nodded.

Then they looked at the star map together.

With the early death of the Queen, the Empire was seized by the Council of Nobles for a long time, becoming deeply entrenched and difficult to control. Forcing the King to abdicate appeared to be an attack on the King, but in reality, it was an attempt to overthrow the royalists in the Council of Nobles.

If we don't eliminate the royalists, killing the insect king will likely give them another reason to rebel, so we still have to fight.

The royalists would involve more than half of the empire's nobility.

The nobles of today are families who earned military merit during the Zerg wars. In other words, even if they were not military heroines, they were all powerful races in the past.

Even with ten legions under the Crown Prince's command, this battle was not going to be easy.

"We already have the leverage to overturn the table. Let's overturn the table and settle accounts with them."

"OK."

Lan looked at the area representing the corrupt aristocratic power, her lips pressed into a straight line.

The empire has been in chaos for far too long.

Rotten things should be dug up.

He will surely give the Zerg a future where everyone can survive, on behalf of his female father.

......

**********

......

Bishen had agreed with the Crown Prince to first return to the Zerg and secretly gather the legion's forces.

Gao Tian made up an excuse to slip out of the meeting room, and then secretly called Lu Jianan.

Leaning against the wall, he found the name of that rebellious son who hadn't made a sound for days on the communicator, took a deep breath, and pressed the call button.

Brother, if you don't come back soon, your older brother is leaving.

As your father who is not related to you by blood, this is all I can do to help you.

......

First Military Region Research Institute, Deep Biology Laboratory.

The annular culture tank emitted a faint blue light, and the complex pipes and instruments hummed.

Wearing a sterile gown and goggles, Lu Jianan was intently staring at the cell sample under the microscope.

He was selected by his teacher to study a cell sample from twenty years ago.

The Human Federation wants to try to restore the activity of these dried-up cells and use them to restore a living organism... It doesn't need to replicate the human body, just restore it to living cells or tissues.

It's hard.

Cells that can be preserved for a long time and still maintain their activity for recloning require special preservation conditions. In cases where cells have been exposed to air and dried for twenty years, the only option is to extract DNA fragments and introduce them into cells from other individuals for fragmentary restoration.

However, the gene fragments of this cell are also very strange, as they are completely unconnected to the gene fragments of other individuals.

too difficult.

The entire research group at the institute is currently studying this, and his professor is leading them in doing the same thing.

Every day, we analyze and decode gene fragments, with real-time analysis results flowing like a waterfall on the holographic screen next to us; we can't afford to look away.

His personal terminal in his pocket suddenly vibrated and made a sound.

Lu Jianan was interrupted, and he quietly took out his terminal to take a look.

—It is the high heaven.

In the laboratory, several senior students were working quietly.

Lu Jianan secretly glanced up.

His teacher was giving him a death stare from the stage.

—Who gave you permission to bring the terminal into the lab?

Lu Jianan quickly swiped the edge of the terminal and decisively ended the communication.

Teacher Chong smiled ingratiatingly. He only did experiments in the lab.

The screen on the terminal in my pocket went dark.

The teacher looked away, which meant he was off the hook.

Lu Jianan breathed a sigh of relief and refocused her attention on the microscope.

Gao Tian is probably looking for him because he can no longer hold back and wants to see him.

Waaaaah, why hasn't my older brother contacted him yet?

Okay, okay, I'll give you a way out.

It's not convenient now; he'll call Gao Tian after he finishes the experiment.

......

At the other end of the corridor, Gao Tian was stunned to hear the "call terminated by the other party" message on his communicator.

"?"

"Damn it!" he cursed under his breath, staring incredulously at the blacked-out screen.

Son, your elder brother is about to leave, and you're still throwing a tantrum?

He scratched his hair hard and looked at the closed conference room door behind him.

My family is speechless.

Gao Tian didn't answer the first call, but thinking that Xiao Lu was an idiot and that his father was just as forgiving, he called him again.

I called and got hung up on, then called again and got hung up on again.

Gao Tian thought he would make one last struggle, his fingertip hovering over the name of that rebellious son, before pressing it down heavily.

The faint buzzing of the communication request sounded again, and Gao Tian put the terminal to his ear and waited.

......

First Military Region Research Institute

In the laboratory.

The beep sounded again! Lu Jianan's hand trembled, and she almost knocked over the delicate micro-adjustment knob.

Lu Jianan hurriedly took it out and saw that it was still Gao Tian!

The teacher's stern gaze swept over us like a searchlight.

Lu Jianan felt a chill run down her spine and quickly hung up the phone.

He hunched his shoulders quietly, held his breath, and prayed that his mentor would stop looking at him.

Director Li looked away.

Lu Jianan had just breathed a sigh of relief.

Buzz—buzz—!

The terminal rang again!

Lu Jianan's heart was pounding in her throat!

The teacher's brows furrowed, and the senior student next to him cast a strange glance at him.

"Researcher Lu." The teacher's cold voice came from the front.

Lu Jianan frantically reached for the physical button on the side of the terminal, pressed it down, and muted it!

"Teacher, I've muted it."

I'll call after I get off work!

The world was finally quiet. Only the hum of the culture tank and the low rumble of the instruments could be heard.

Lu Jianan always had to endure the teacher's stern gaze. Going to work was like fighting a battle. Her back was soaked with sweat and felt ice-cold.

According to the rules, they are not allowed to bring terminals into the laboratory.

He broke the rules again.

He's been glued to his phone these days.

Waaaaah, why hasn't my older brother called me yet?

......

State Guesthouse.

corridor.

As Gao Tian heard the third disconnect notification sound from the communicator, he cursed under his breath, his temper rising, and pressed the button again without thinking!

The call was disconnected again.

Gao Tian took a deep breath and tried to convince himself.

Children are all debts.

A good father should forgive all the mistakes of his unfilial son.

For the sake of the unfilial son's lifelong happiness.

Let's try one more time, just the last time!

Gao Tian pressed Lu Jianan's name on the communicator again!

This time, however, there wasn't even a busy signal.

A cold, emotionless electronic female voice immediately rang out:

Sorry, the number you dialed is currently unavailable. Please try again later.
