36: The swarm of insects is attacking!

The “lucky” slowly sailed out from behind an asteroid.

The light of the star shone upon the hull.

The bright silver armor gleamed with a cold light.

It appeared in Alexei's sight like a savior.

“I survived?”

Alexei, who had prepared to face death but unexpectedly survived the ordeal, stared incredulously at the massive shadow outside the window.

“This... a corrier-class cruiser?”

That familiar warship,

was one of the standard warships of the Defense Force.

Although it wasn't particularly good-looking,

at this moment, it brought Alexei an unparalleled sense of security.

Wait,

that's not right.

After a brief moment of stunned silence, he vigorously rubbed his face,

and directed his gaze toward the small communication device.

He calmed his emotions slightly,

suppressing the joy of surviving the disaster.

Alexei thought,

the other party might have simply helped him deal with the bugs behind him as a courtesy,

and he wasn't truly in a safe place yet.

I must contact them quickly...————

“Captain,”

“It is preliminarily determined that these unknown creatures emerged from the void behind us.”

“We have conducted a comparison in the database,”

“but have not found a similar species.”

Gulac frowned.

He had an ominous premonition.

Less than ten minutes after they set off,

these little things kept continuously brushing up against them.

Although most of these “bugs” could be described as harmless,

some even dissolved into a puddle after being brushed once,

but their numbers were vast.

They killed one group, and another arrived.

The lucky's close-in weapon system was almost out of ammunition.

Just now, they had cleared another group of bugs blocking their path,

And was there a Shuttle ahead of that Swarm?

What's going on... “Hello? Hello?”

“To the corrier-class cruiser belonging to the Galaxy Defense Force ahead,”

“thank you for extending your help.”

“I am the Governor of Planet Three,”

“Alexei Silette.”

“I hope to board your warship and travel to the defensive fortifications located on Planet Five.”

“I have important intelligence regarding the cleavage void, and I hope to discuss it in detail with your Commander immediately.”

A man's voice suddenly sounded on the public channel.

After listening, Gulac glanced at the First Officer beside him and raised an eyebrow.

“That's interesting,”

“Wasn't Planet Three the first one to be swallowed?”

“How is this Governor still alive?”

The First Officer was silent for a moment.

“Perhaps he cherishes his people like his own children?”

“Did he fiercely protect the populace before the disaster struck?”

“Or did he take the lead in fleeing the planet to find a solution?”

The two exchanged a smile.

Then Gulac straightened his collar and said,

“Never mind,”

“God knows how this guy survived,”

“In any case, nobody would dare impersonate a Planetary Governor,”

“Bring him aboard first.”

...“Organize internal defenses!”

“Quickly clear out the bugs that have drilled in!”

After a brief period of panic, Baili Ying immediately snapped into action.

She took the Shuttle and sped all the way back again,

returning directly to the control tower,

then immediately opened the central control panel and closed all gates leading into the outpost.

As command after command was issued, the personnel inside the outpost were immediately organized.

The situation was brought under control within minutes.

Because Xi Hai had previously come to inspect it,

everyone clearly knew that the seemingly fragile outpost beneath their feet was actually a very reliable pre-era creation.

Therefore, most of the employees were not particularly afraid.

After all, they used to run smuggling operations,

and they all knew how strong pre-era creations were;

Even if they didn't know,

they were fine after taking that shelling earlier, right?

Could bugs possibly be stronger than steel warships?

The occasional trembling transmitted from beneath their feet,

in everyone's eyes, was merely the impotent rage of the bugs outside.

However,

after the effects of adrenaline wore off,

Baili Ying in the control tower developed goosebumps—

countless dense bugs clung to the outside of the control tower windows.

Their segmented legs and abdomens overlapped and rubbed, transmitting the sound through the window into the control tower,

filling the air with eerie “kaka” sounds.

Fortunately, she didn't have trypophobia, or it would have been worse.

Closing her eyes,

Baili Ying leaned back gently, sitting on the large chair behind her.

The lingering scent of White Shark instantly surrounded her.

She let out a breath,

Oh, wait, she took a breath in,

Whoosh—

She felt reassured.

Gently covering her ears,

The noisy rubbing sound slowly diminished until it vanished... wait?

Vanished?

Baili Ying quickly sprang up from the chair in a huge jump, instantly directing her gaze outside the window—

The bugs clinging to the glass had disappeared,

No, they hadn't disappeared,

they had flown away—

Two colossal bugs, which could no longer be simply called bugs,

appeared in her line of sight.

The smaller bugs flew towards them, guarding them on all sides,

just like... an aircraft carrier and its carrier-based aircraft?

Wait, did these emerge from that cleavage void?

Baili Ying's pupils suddenly constricted, and her fingers began to tremble involuntarily.

—These unknown entities seeping out from the void—

—She had seen similar cases when she secretly looked through the United University's sealed archives!

A fierce ringing in her ears sounded, seemingly reminding her,

that what was before her—was not a dream!

This was a super disaster that humanity, since the golden age,

had only recorded three times—

Void Creatures breaking the Membrane between two realms and seeping into the real world,

abbreviated as:

Void Seepage!

...(PS: Today in Lagli,)

(there was an uncivilized The Consortium,)

(they weren't hostile and we had no grudge,)

(we were attacking a city, and when we damaged them, they came over to steal the loot,)

(Our manager got angry and immediately dragged us to push their base cluster,)

(I thought they were quite strong,)

(to dare challenge us for the city?)

(Turns out they weren't even a big speed bump.)

(Three teams cornered my Destroyer escort team,)

(but they couldn't take us out,)

(and I blew up several of their cruisers.)

(With this kind of strength,)

(I wouldn't even bother calling them for a massage.)

(In less than one night, we scraped them down until only the bare land remained.)

(Absolutely unbelievable,)

(so much barking for someone so weak.)
