Let you simulate life, but you change fate every time?!

Chapter 753: Chapter 409: 7th Era: Insect Hive Will, Returning Void Ancient Saint!

Gu Yao hastily logged off.

A few minutes later, she sent another video call.

Before Lu Yuan could speak, she hurriedly spoke like a machine gun.

"You were right, the battle in Xihu City back then was indeed strange."

"Not long after the battle ended, all the data and information were mysteriously destroyed; even the big sister can’t find anything now."

Lu Yuan was taken aback but not too surprised.

The Insect Hive Will is pervasive, and with just a medium, it can infect the core code of the intelligent light brain, paralyzing all systems.

Deleting a portion of data is certainly not a challenge for it.

"And the big sister just told me that she has also noticed that Governor Peng Bao has been acting strangely over the years."

"Initially, she thought it was because he got his hands on that Immortal Treasure, but now it seems the situation is not that simple."

Gu Yao sighed, full of worry.

"Governor Peng Bao?"

Lu Yuan frowned, realizing the situation was becoming more complicated.

This person is the most powerful and high-ranking figure on Hulao Star.

Apart from the jurisdiction and orders of the Star Alliance, he is no different from the Emperor in other matters.

If the information provided by Gu Yao is true,

even this Tier Five Mecha Master based on Hulao Star might have already become a puppet of the Insect Hive Will.

"In that case, leaving aside the Divine Wood Star, even Hulao Star can no longer be safeguarded."

Lu Yuan suddenly felt immense pressure.

Although Cultivators generally have combat power a level higher than peers,

a Tier Five Mecha Master already has the combat power of the Land Sinking Level, even more powerful than a Tier Four Nascent Soul Cultivator.

Even if Lu Yuan can fight across levels and tear apart Nascent Souls,

Peng Bao, as the Master of One Star, surely has a Tier Five Mecha at his disposal.

Moreover, the manpower and resources he can mobilize are incomparably greater than what Lu Yuan can.

If a direct conflict occurs, even Lu Yuan has no certainty of victory.

"Why don’t your big sister inform others in the Star Alliance of this news?"

Lu Yuan asked curiously.

If he guessed correctly,

the big sister in Gu Yao’s words is not only the leader of the Silver Moon Organization but also infiltrated the Governance Hall, becoming a high-level figure of Hulao Star.

With her identity and status, she should have access to contact stronger figures in the Star Alliance.

"Maybe it was possible to tell the Star Alliance before, but Hulao Star has now entered into martial law status; all matters require the governor’s consent."

"Although our Silver Moon Organization’s secret channel can be used for communication without Governance Hall’s monitoring,

without Peng Bao’s permission, there’s no way to send the message outside."

Gu Yao replied bitterly.

"Alright, I’ll think of something else."

Lu Yuan was silent for a moment and turned off the video call.

He then rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on.

Good news.

The enemy is in the open, I am in the dark.

As long as he hides himself well, his life won’t be in danger for the time being.

Bad news.

The entire Hulao Star has now truly become a cage, and no one can leave.

As for infiltrating the support fleet to the Divine Wood Star battlefield, and then finding a chance to tell the Star Alliance higher-ups?

Based on Lu Yuan’s understanding of the Dark Insect Race, the other party will never make such a low-level mistake.

The support fleet might be wiped out before reaching the destination.

But now that things have come to this point,

he can only seize the time to cultivate and take one step at a time.

But as time progresses,

the situation on Hulao Star continues to deteriorate.

First, the third batch of support fleets heading to the Divine Wood Star was ambushed by the Dark Insect Race.

Then a military base in outer space of Hulao Star was hit by a small-scale insect attack and subsequently lost contact.

Finally, it reached a point where even Dark Insect Race warriors appeared on Hulao Star’s local ground.

Reports may deceive, but battle lines do not.

Despite the Governance Hall repeatedly emphasizing that the current situation is stable and controllable,

the Dark Insect Race has already descended on a large scale, and within just half a month, several mega-cities with populations over a hundred million fell one after another!

For a time,

fires raged, and corpses were everywhere.

Countless magnificent skyscrapers collapsed in the flames of war, turning into ruins.

"What on earth is the Governance Hall doing? How could they let the Dark Insect Race invade Hulao Star’s territory!"

"If they can’t repel the Dark Insect Race, they should immediately restore communication, lift the martial law status, and request support from the Terran Empire!"

Countless Professionals, filled with righteous indignation, jointly petitioned the Governance Hall.

Yet facing the enraged crowd, the Governance Hall simply declared externally,

"In these tumultuous times, to better coordinate resources and prevent rebellious forces from taking the opportunity to cause disorder, it is very necessary to continue martial law status, and we ask all residents to understand."

This statement caused all the Professionals to explode with anger.

By now, even fools can sense something is wrong.

Many have smelled a whiff of conspiracy, thinking of every possible way to leave Hulao Star.

Many high-tier Professionals, in the dead of night, took private interstellar spaceships intending to escape.

But before leaving the atmosphere, they were instantly obliterated by the planet orbital cannon stationed in outer space!

However, this did not act as a deterrent but instead fueled other Professionals’ anger.

Because everyone knows very well.

Rather than waiting to die, it is better to put up a fight, deciding to jointly attack the Governance Hall Headquarters!

Initially, under the attack of the army of Professionals, the Star Realm Army responsible for guarding the Governance Hall repeatedly retreated.

But as a Black Obsidian Mecha appeared out of nowhere, the unrest was immediately suppressed.

The Black Obsidian Mecha stood in the air, coldly overlooking the bodies and blood below, announcing in an undeniable tone.

"No one may leave this place until the war is over!"

And this scene was quickly broadcasted across major video platforms, known to all Hulao Star residents.

"A Tier Five Mecha made of D3-level Obsidian Alloy?"

Looking at the mighty mecha over ten meters tall in the image, even Lu Yuan felt a bit heavy-hearted.

Although it’s just a regular mecha.

The D-Class Metal already belongs to high-grade materials, typically used to create Tier Six Mecha.

Yet Peng Bao used D3-level Obsidian Alloy to make a Tier Five Mecha, a display of luxury, to say the least.

And the performance and defense of this Black Obsidian Mecha are probably the top among Tier Five Mechas, in some respects even comparable to Tier Six Mechas!

At this moment,

Lu Yuan’s watch flickered slightly, indicating a video communication request had been received.

He clicked accept, and a long-haired woman in a blue uniform immediately appeared before him as a virtual projection.

"Did you see today’s news?"

"Peng Bao has completely lost his mind; he dares to publicly suppress the Professionals!"

Gu Yao gritted her teeth in anger, with a hint of anxiety in her voice.

If this continues, the situation will only worsen.

"The situation hasn’t reached the worst stage yet; the reason he hasn’t torn his mask off is that he’s waiting for the main forces of the Dark Insect Race."

"After all, facing the uprising of millions of Professionals, even a Tier Five Mecha Master would be at risk."

Lu Yuan analyzed calmly.

He then thought for a moment and spoke again.

"There’s not much time left for us; if possible, I’d like to meet with your big sister."

"You want to meet the big sister? What are you planning?"

Gu Yao furrowed her brows, asking warily.

"I need Cultivation Techniques, as many as possible."

At this point, Lu Yuan no longer hid his intentions and answered straightforwardly.

"Could it be that you have already..."

Gu Yao’s expression changed slightly, as if she had realized something.

She had seen Lu Yuan’s birth records and knew he possessed a Top-grade Spirit Root.

She found it hard to believe, that Lu Yuan might have silently become a Cultivator?

"At this point, we have no other choice; dragging it out would be no different from waiting to die."

"Convey my words to your big sister, she will know what to do."

Lu Yuan said frankly.

"I understand."

Gu Yao nodded, clearly aware of the seriousness of the situation.

She ended the video call and immediately relayed the matter to the big sister.

Before long,

Lu Yuan received a video communication request from a stranger.
