Finally, they breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Cheng Xinghai’s face was somewhat pale, she quickly suppressed any irrelevant emotions using her spiritual energy.

She was aware that Chen Ming must have done something just now.

But just as she was about to speak, subsequent warp fluctuations also started to take shape.

Pitch black insect race battleships, shrouded in black mist, arrived within the star system.

Cheng Xinghai immediately changed what she was about to say and asked, ”What is that?”

”Thorn Insect Race,” Chen Ming said, ”Record the upcoming footage, it will be valuable.”

”Thorn Insect Race...”

Cheng Xinghai’s first reaction was that these insects were connected to Chen Ming.

Although she did not know An Wuping or the connection between Chen Ming and An Wuping,

she had been very curious about Chen Ming’s past recently, and hence had asked him many questions about his past.

She was naturally aware of the insects that almost trapped Chen Ming in the Mining Space Station.

But she didn’t understand why the Thorn Insect Race had biological battleships, surrounded by a thick dangerous looking mist, and finally appeared here.

The Black Mist Insect Race completely encircled the two mother ships, and the endless black mist was continuously consuming them as the mother ships were trapped in the encirclement.

On ships at the edge of the star system, sensors could only detect the violent energy of main-level weapons tumbling within the black mist.

But the swirling energy looked indistinguishable from the desperate struggle of the mother ships.

Soon thereafter, as the war between the Insect Race and the Mechanical Race was still unresolved, a new disturbance appeared again at the edge of the star system.

However, it was not a warp fluctuation this time, as the warp in the star system had been blocked due to the large-scale warp of the Black Mist Insect Race.

What appeared now was a superspace fluctuation large enough to rival a warp disturbance.

Numerous Thorn Insect Race fleets were entering the edge of the star system through superspace.

What they were doing was exactly the same as when Chen Ming attacked the Mechanical Race, when the warp in the star system was blocked, the Destruction Carrier did the same thing.

The emergence of these New Insect Races was part of Chen Ming’s plan to avoid direct conflict between the Black Mist Insect Race and the Imperial Fleet.

Their emergence just happened to be in the direction of Cheng Xinghai’s fleet’s retreat.

The faces of those in the flagship command room and on all the ships in the fleet of newly escaped survivors changed again.

Cheng Xinghai was swiftly contemplating, but when faced with absolute power, she had no means to evade.

”It’s okay, just go straight through.”

Chen Ming’s voice gave Cheng Xinghai a way out in her thoughts.

She immediately ordered, ”Maintain formation, weapons silenced, continue forward.”

Although the fleet was somewhat panicked and there were a few operational errors, it eventually calmed down.

Many on the ships had realized how they just avoided the Mechanical Race mother ship’s attack, so facing these biological battleships this time, they should also not encounter any mishaps.

Just as Cheng Xinghai’s fleet passed by the newly arrived insect race fleet without interference on either side,

the Black Mist Insect Race within the star system suddenly seemed to have detected something, became more frenzied, and intensified their attacks on the Mechanical Race’s mother ship.

Soon, there was no sound at all within the dense black mist.

And when the Black Mist Insect Race realigned into a battle formation and the mist gradually dispersed a bit, there was no longer any trace of the two Mechanical Race mother ships within the mist.

However, the Black Mist Insect Race had already found a new target.

A civil war between insect races suddenly erupted.

This was a brutal battle, a fight filled with carnage and bloodshed, even in the space age.

Everyone in the flagship command room was intensely focused on watching the battle’s progression.

But Chen Ming had no interest in watching at all.

He first made some calls to certain individuals, then delegated the entire command of the battle to the Insect Queen, as ultimately it only mattered if the regular insect race won in the end.

In the meantime, he had the Black Mist Prosthetic briefly appear, creating signs of escape, thus resolving the issue.

Without greeting anyone, he disappeared from the flagship.

Not long after, reinforcements from the front line also arrived at the Flowing Steel Star System.

It was a fleet led by an Offensive Level ship.

The captain of the Offensive Level had already received orders to observe passively, so he did not fire at the insect race, just quietly watching the two insect races battle.

Main ships often carry portable superluminal communication base stations, thus the entire battle process was transmitted back to the Empire’s territory.

Anyone who saw the footage came to a conclusion.

There was no relationship between the Black Mist Insect Race and the ordinary Thorn Insect Race.

This was not only deduced from the battle, but also due to the situation on the Pirate Space Station side of things.

Since the Black Mist Insect Race fleet, when they were just eggs, had been exposed by Chen Ming to the Empire, the insect race fleet had been under Empire surveillance the whole time.

Thus, from the fleet’s departure to its assault on the Mechanical Race and driving away the three Mechanical Race mother ships, the whole process was observed by the Empire.

The warp endpoints of the three mother ships were soon definitively located.

The conditions on the Pirate Space Station side were immediately relayed to anyone in the Empire territory with sufficient status.

After all, there were as many as a million Insect Race Cruisers that were completely wiped out by Wu An in one encounter.
