Space Odyssey from Abandoned Mining Space Station

Even for the Mechanical Race, if sacrificing a Star Realm could pin Chen Ming down here, they would definitely have the possibility of doing such a thing.

So the number of fleets attacking this time will only be more than Chen Ming estimated, not less.

This estimate is actually quite conservative.

Under such a scale, Chen Ming feels his Pioneer Fleet should have no room to struggle.

With less than twenty cruisers, even if they can exert several times the efficiency under Chen Ming’s Spiritual Energy, it’s impossible to resist in front of the main ships.

Even when facing fleets exceeding a certain limit, Chen Ming’s Spiritual Energy will not be able to exert enough effect.

Although he has been preparing, his preparations were not for a head-on battle with such fleets, let alone being ready.

And there’s an even more troublesome aspect.

That is, the Mechanical Race attacked just after Chen Ming participated in an experiment, having endured the devastation of two dimensions, leaving his Spiritual Power depleted.

Chen Ming can’t even quickly muster Spiritual Energy to intercept or hasten the relocation.

He can only verbally urge a few Dusk cores and see if there are other methods to intercept the Mechanical Race fleet from finding his position.

No reinforcements beyond the Empire, everything depends on Chen Ming himself.

The situation really spiraled downward rapidly.

Previously, Chen Ming could prepare leisurely, even enjoying quite a considerable time without any incidents.

But today, there were two sudden occurrences in succession.

He can’t continue with the previous stable mindset.

He must quickly devise a way to handle this.

The first thing he must do now is avoid the worst-case scenario and absolutely not let the Mechanical Race fleet press the border.

There are two ways to stop the Mechanical Race fleet.

Prevent the Mechanical Race fleet from discovering his Pioneer base, or move it directly.

Chen Ming was already preparing for the next move prior, but if he does nothing, it’s estimated that it will take four or five days to get ready.

This is an unacceptable timeframe.

To resolve it, he must somehow restore his Spiritual Power quickly.

Chen Ming’s Spiritual Power recovers rapidly, so the most convenient way is to delay time.

And delaying time coincidentally aligns with another method to organize against the Mechanical Race fleet, which is to intercept the Mechanical Race fleet.

As long as the search speed of the Mechanical Race is delayed, the rest will be easy to manage.

As for the method of delay...

Sending out cruiser fleets alone is not enough.

The Mechanical Race is not foolish; discovering Chen Ming’s fleet moving to attract attention will at most make one part move over, but more will definitely continue searching for his presence.

To stop the Mechanical Race, one must also release a large number of mid-to-low-level ships, performing the same carpet-style influence on the Mechanical Race search.

But this can only handle the already released Mechanical Race fleets.

If they are those fleets corresponding to the Mechanical Race cruisers jumping to the outside, it’s not so easy to solve.

They even have a certain probability of directly jumping onto Chen Ming’s location.

Handling them is absolutely a troublesome matter.

While pondering how to solve the problem,

His perception sensed that the Insect Queen had already awoken within the cocoon, completing its evolution.

It seems luck is on his side.

Chen Ming immediately turned his attention to the Insect Queen’s Insect Hive Planet, just in time to witness the moment the Insect Queen broke out of the cocoon.

Several tentacles tore open the cocoon enclosing the biological cruiser exterior of the Insect Queen from inside out, unveiling the biological cruiser’s current appearance.

Its black shell was covered with fluorescent patterns, and the evolved blood flowing from it turned from the original gray-green to clear, emanating fluorescence similar to Immortal Spirit Leaves.

Even the muscle tissue between the shell gaps and the energy crystal nestled within the Insect Queen’s muscle tissue became similar.

But soon, under the Insect Queen’s modulation, the shell returned to pitch-black, and the flesh went back to gray-green, becoming less conspicuous.

Only the energy crystals within the Insect Queen’s body retained their clear, transparent yet slightly fluorescent appearance.

These energy crystals contain even more formidable energy.

Aside from these easily observable appearance changes,

all deeper changes from evolution were transmitted to Chen Ming through the consciousness link with the Insect Queen.

All understood without words.

After comprehending the Insect Queen’s changes,

Chen Ming let out a great sigh of relief; it looks like the trouble should be soon resolved unless the Mechanical Race truly deployed main ships.

Chen Ming didn’t dare waste any more time and immediately said to the Insect Queen, "Quickly consolidate the Insect Nest, prepare to relocate and fight."

The Insect Queen didn’t hesitate for a moment and began to act.

The whole planet’s Insect Nest seemed to awaken instantaneously, becoming extremely active.

A considerable portion of Insect Race individuals in the Insect Nest was immediately decomposed by the Insect Nest, converted into novel, highly concentrated energy crystals.

Providing nourishment to the Insect Nest’s structure, allowing it to gradually transform into a system similar to the Insect Queen.

A core control node, or Insect Race nerve control tumor, enveloped by the biological cruiser exterior.

Almost all Insect Nest structures began this transformation, constructing one heavy, pitch-black Insect Race cruiser after another.
