Alba was both furious and aggrieved.
It was furious that Aliya had actually told it to call her Empress Aliya when it called her!
This was clearly how the lower class addressed Aliya. As an Insectoid Emperor like Aliya, what right did it have to do that?
What made it aggrieved was that ever since it came into close contact with Aliya, Alba realized that the energy in her body was at least a hundred times stronger than its own!
Why?
We're both Emperor Insectoids. Is there a difference between Emperor Insectoids?
This was also why Alba had no choice but to admit defeat despite being furious.
Moreover, it had no choice but to lower its head now that it was under someone else's roof!
Looking at the countless large and powerful insectoids around it, how magnificent was that?
Unfortunately, not a single one of them was its subordinate!
Thus, Alba did not dare to show its anger on its face and could only admit defeat and call her Empress Aliya!
Looking at Alba, whose eyes were filled with unwillingness but had already submitted, Aliya finally nodded slightly.
"You're not too stupid!"
Of course, while admitting defeat, Alba also completely opened up its spiritual domain. As long as Aliya wanted to, she could obtain everything in Alba's mind at any time.
Ten minutes later, Aliya, who had already circled around Alba's Divine Domain, had a look of anger on her face.
It turned out that Alba had not evolved on its own, but someone from Faern had forcefully helped it evolve.
In Alba's memories, this person called Faern was strangely similar to a human, whether it was his body shape, face shape, or physical characteristics.
However, Aliya's intuition kept telling her that this mysterious Faern had nothing to do with the Federation!
However, if he had nothing to do with them, why did he do all this?
With his strength, he could probably destroy a level 7 civilization by himself, right?
Most importantly, this idiot Alba actually recognized him as its master just like that?
Moreover, it was being pressured by him like a chess piece. Wasn't it embarrassing?
Aliya was becoming more and more disgusted with Alba.
However, Aliya was especially interested in the Faern in its memories …
"Come with me!"
-----
Unknowingly, five years had already passed.
Kempinia Supercluster, Fils Galaxy Group, Tartar Galaxy.
Many things could change in five years, and this huge and ugly bug was one of them.
The current Alba had completely become Aliya's lab rat. Every day, he cooperated with Aliya to carry out various experiments. It was really a pitiful sight to behold.
However, after five years, Aliya still didn't gain anything.
Could it be that he could only rely on the next generation of the male and female Imperial Insects to break through the upper limit of the race?
This made Aliya extremely unwilling to accept it …
After all, Alba was simply too ugly!
That's right, it was just too ugly. After tens of thousands of years, Aliya's aesthetic standards had already begun to deviate in the direction of humans. In her eyes, Alba's matter was revolting!
"Hmm?"
At this moment, Aliya suddenly sensed that one of the meticulously cultivated cocoons in front of her seemed to be a little abnormal.
In the Void, billions of cocoons simply crouched there. They were all new species of insects that Ali had specially cultivated with his and Alba's cells.
Over the past few years, Aliya had used various methods to conduct experiments and cultivated many different forms of combat insects.
Unfortunately, all of them had failed. It was either the insects cultivated did not have actual combat ability, or their combat ability was extremely poor.
In short, no matter what method Aliya used to cultivate them, these new combat insects seemed to have collectively degenerated after birth. Their overall strength was not even comparable to the various beginner combat insects from the war 100,000 years ago!
This made Aliya a little crazy, and she still could not figure out the reason for this.
Could it be that positive had become negative?
Now, in the latest batch of combat insect cocoons, Aliya could clearly feel that one of the cocoons was unusual!
The energy within it was completely different from the battlefield in the other cocoons. It was purer and more powerful!
"Perhaps, when this combat insect breaks out of its cocoon, I'll be able to get the answer I want?"
-----
Myers Galaxy Group, the largest galaxy, Kempinia.
Kempinia had been built into the Federation's largest laboratory, and the person in charge of this laboratory was Wei!
That's right, it was Wei. She was now in charge of some special research projects, but she did not expect herself to be completely stuck in her first project.
"Where did I go wrong?"
Through the observation images transmitted, Wei was somewhat puzzled.
"Maybe it's because you overcomplicate a simple matter!"
Wei's eyes suddenly lit up, and she seemed to have understood something.
"Overcomplicating a simple matter, I think I understand a little!"
After that, she did not care about Lin Fan, who had entered the laboratory, and continued to immerse herself in high-intensity research. This caused Lin Fan to shake his head speechlessly.
She was simply a replica of Bai Zixuan!
Speaking of the project that Wei was researching, it was really incredible. Even a level-8 or level-9 civilization would not dare to touch the field, but she had stubbornly rushed into it.
Once this project was successful, the Federation would obtain an energy source that was more powerful than zero-point energy.
The more powerful the energy source was, the more powerful the weapons, and the more advanced the technology would be.
Originally, this was a good thing, and this research should have received everyone's support.
However, in reality, it was the complete opposite. The entire Federation, including Bai Zixuan, was not optimistic about this project. After all, the things that Wei wanted to research were not things that the Federation's current level could come into contact with.
Therefore, under the leadership of Bai Zixuan, the Science Department directly cut off Wei's project application.
This was also the reason why Wei's laboratory was built in the Myers Galaxy.
After the project was cut off by the Science Department, Wei, who was unwilling to give up, went to find Lin Fan. No one knew what the two of them talked about, but everyone knew that the next day, the military announced that they were going to build a laboratory directly under them, and the person in charge of this laboratory was Wei …
This decision made everyone's jaws drop, especially Bai Zixuan. He even went to find Lin Fan specifically for this communication and scolded him to the face.
From his point of view, it was still too early for Wei to research that thing. Researching it now would only be a waste of resources and time.
In the end, they would not get anything.
However, Lin Fan's view was somewhat different from Bai Zixuan's!
Perhaps, from Bai Zixuan's point of view, Wei's actions were like asking a primitive person to research a space battleship. There were too many levels of leapfrogging.
However, from Lin Fan's point of view, this was not impossible.
Back in the day, when the Federation was still a level-4 civilization, they were already able to develop
zero-point particle energy, which should only be available to level-7 civilizations.
Furthermore, there was still himself who had a cheat!
