Macgregor was very busy, extremely busy. He had indeed forgotten about Li Mu, until his deputy came in and said that Li Mu had very important information to report. Macgregor was even stunned for a moment before reacting, "He's still here? Hasn't he returned to the Hurricane?"

"Only some people with combat missions or those needed by their original units have returned. A portion remains at the Space Fortress. I remember you originally intended to have them carry out a raid on Kepler at an opportune time," the deputy said.

Macgregor did have this idea. He recruited Li Mu not because of Li Mu's handsome appearance. Li Mu's performance in the S-League was obvious to all, and he had seen it too. It wasn't just strength; calm and composure were what he valued more. Moreover, he still maintained a ceiling-level combat ability in space. This was definitely a top warrior. His judgment of the situation and leadership were also good, so he gathered a group of people, indeed intending to carry out some particularly difficult missions. However, in the current battle situation, Kepler was as solid as a bucket of iron, with no opportunity at all. Forcibly breaking in with their strength would be like throwing meat buns at a dog.

"Let him return to his original combat unit," Macgregor said, currently having no time to deal with this.

The deputy hesitated for a moment but still said, "Captain, he says he has crucial intelligence to report. From my observation of this person, he doesn't seem to be the type to talk nonsense."

Normally, the deputy wouldn't say this, but this Li Mu was, after all, recognized by the Commander-in-Chief. The other party had been polite and courteous earlier, without the airs of an S-League champion. One shouldn't miss an opportunity, and he wanted to give this favor; it was all about human relationships.

"Oh, let him in then," Macgregor nodded.

Macgregor turned back and processed some intelligence reports. When he turned back again, Li Mu had already arrived.

"Speak," Macgregor said.

Li Mu wasn't stupid. He knew that the current situation was a special privilege. If everyone sought out the Commander-in-Chief, he wouldn't have time for anything else; just receiving visitors would fill his days.

"Report, among the reporters accompanying the expedition this time, there is someone from our Tianjing Mecha Martial program. He possesses the special ability to predict and sense direction. He has sensed some unusual things, and I judge that it is related to something within Kepler," Li Mu said.

Macgregor's hand stopped on the control panel. He turned his head to look at Li Mu, "Tell me about it."

Clearly, Li Mu's words had aroused some of his attention, but not enough.

"Zhuang Zhou's ability is to predict danger. He felt it during the expedition, and as Kepler approached, the feeling became stronger and stronger. There exists within Kepler a vast spiritual entity that can directly affect him. The other party should be using some unknown method to begin invading his dream realm," Li Mu said.

Macgregor frowned, "I've seen the analysis of the Nanggong Yu's ark and the Noah-class battleship's artificers. You mean to say that he now has the means to directly affect people in the fleet?"

He was a bit skeptical because if he had this ability, the person who should be attacked most was him.

"Commander-in-Chief, influencing people's dreams is very difficult. The more determined a person is, the harder they are to influence. At the same time, there are other conditions. I judge that our fleet does not have an artificer. Zhuang Zhou's ability may be the reason he is being affected. While sensing the unknown, he should also be sensed. Moreover, the one influencing him may not necessarily be Nanggong Yu. Specifics need to be verified before we can be sure. I believe this is an opportunity!" Li Mu said. He had to give enough confidence to convince the other party.

Macgregor's expression was grave. The war's opponents were changing in an unpredictable direction, clearly exceeding the previous understanding of war. Macgregor had indeed not overlooked this point. He couldn't create something out of nothing, but he couldn't ignore it either. The best method was to have a specialist take charge.

"Commander-in-Chief, if Zhuang Zhou is here, we also have similar ability users among our hunters who can specifically hunt down the other party, no matter who he is or what form he uses. As long as he comes again, we can definitely seize some clues, perhaps we can use this to understand the situation inside Kepler," Li Mu said, seeing Macgregor's consideration, he continued to speak.

Macgregor nodded, "You handle this matter. Report any results directly to me."

"Yes, sir!" Li Mu also breathed a sigh of relief. Only in this way could he let go and act. He was a little worried about the fleet's conventional combat preparations. This time the enemy was not just giant insects.

Not long after Li Mu left, an alarm sounded. The vanguard troops of humanity were under attack, but it was unknown which direction the enemy was coming from. In the first moment, the enemy had already penetrated into the interior of the Fifth Fleet and began to wreak havoc. The staff was in a flurry, and soon the large screen in the command room projected the situation on the scene.

In the image, a cruiser of the Fifth Fleet was suddenly attacked, followed by a series of explosions. The out-of-control cruiser crashed into another nearby one. Fortunately, the other ship, which was on alert, responded very quickly. The captain made an emergency maneuver in time, but the warship was still hit by fragments, and the right side of the warship was also scratched. At the same time, several other cruisers were attacked, followed by a Galia-class carrier also being attacked. Huge dents appeared on the surface of the mother ship. Even more frightening was that for a moment, no one knew where the enemy was.

A large number of space warriors had already been dispatched. Radars and alarms sounded. Countless detection signals were constantly sweeping because no large-scale giant insect activity was detected around. Until some rapidly moving shadows were discovered in space, the attacks were brought by them.

The Fifth Fleet immediately entered combat readiness. The targets of the command and many warships were still the swarms of giant insects near the Kepler planet. Could it be that the swarms of giant insects suddenly ambushed?

However, the swarm of giant insects near Kepler did not move. The camera was constantly capturing, and one after another fragmented figures were framed, enlarged, and projected onto the screen.

Wu Fa, Pang Bo, and others had arrived and saw the attackers framed in space.

It was a humanoid creature wearing silicon-based armor. The creature's face was enlarged, and Macgregor was directly shocked because he knew this person... he had even personally awarded him the S10 Mecha Grand Prix champion, Fan Livett. The impression was too deep, and he couldn't ignore it.

Fan Livett was also one of the people who disappeared after the Nanggong Yu incident and was already on the wanted list. He didn't expect to appear here. Dozens of space mecha had already surrounded Fan Livett. Fan Livett's size was particularly huge compared to a normal person. This was no longer a human, but compared to the mecha, he was obviously several circles smaller. Facing the encirclement, Fan Livett was not afraid at all, seemingly not planning to hide anything. His face even revealed a crazy smile. He drew a silver-colored long spear from behind, faintly flowing with K23's radiance. The next moment, golden power bloomed like a small sun, and a strong golden light blazed.

"Ants!" Fan Livett's only remaining "heroic" face, covered by armor, revealed ferocity. Limitless power, constantly pouring in. Before the modification, he was struggling in pain. He didn't want to become a monster. That damned Nanggong Yu was so insidious. He wanted revenge, but after the modification, there was actually a strange joy and pleasure. He had gained freedom and a new life, a new life form, and an unlimited future, transcending inherent constraints, with a strong sense of satisfaction.迫于力量，he submitted to Nanggong Yu, but was only waiting for an opportunity. One day, he would take back what belonged to him.

A golden halo exploded in space, followed by all the surrounding mobile warriors being frozen in place. The next moment, they exploded into a rain of fire.

And in the base, Nanggong Yu and Romaire were equally enjoying the results. This was the first batch of Bug God Generals. The modification of hybrid technology was not something every human could be promoted to, especially using flesh to withstand the power of the Heart of the Ocean for direct conversion. Currently, modified people were divided into three states: One was like Romaire and them, perfect new life forms, new flesh bodies that could adapt to various extreme conditions, and more direct energy use, which were the Bug God Generals; one was well-modified, the flesh body was strengthened, lifespan was greatly improved, still possessed human intellect, but did not possess such extraordinary power, and were called Bug Men; and the last was modified failures, becoming distorted monsters with only giant insect minds, which were cannon fodder. Of course, these were just the beginning. Nanggong Yu was very satisfied with such experimental results. No matter which one, they could serve him. If all humans were changed into this, he would have a universe-invincible legion, doing whatever he wanted.

After wiping out the surrounding mobile warriors, more mobile warriors continued to fly out. Dozens of fighters had already opened fire towards Fan Livett, but hitting Fan Livett was like scratching an itch. The spiritual strength was different, and the strength of the resulting armor was also different. Fan Livett considered himself to be second to none, and Nanggong Yu had only mastered secrets he didn't know.

A cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. He stretched out his hand, and an energy cannon blasted out from his palm, melting the space within the attack range in an instant, with a sharp trajectory. Fan Livett had a smug smile on his face. This kind of powerful feeling was too wonderful. Wielding such a scale of power, his body had no previous pain or weakness... The light cannon on the cruiser fired, and the intersecting light columns killed towards Fan Livett. The next moment, Fan Livett disappeared from sight.

After being reborn, his alien ability had not disappeared, but had been strengthened, becoming more free, with no more physical burden. He felt that he was one step closer to the universe. He wanted to do everything possible to improve his power and eventually surpass everyone. The space warriors who had lost their target were also at a loss, quickly dispersing to search.

Not long after, Fan Livett had already appeared above another battleship, slowly pulling back the frame of the silver spear. The Heart of the Ocean on his chest shone in all directions, and the armor covering his body seemed to come alive. The light lines flowed, and vast energy gathered within the silver spear.

Boom…
