In that instant, Andrew and the others on the Transport Ship could even clearly see the tens of thousands of Alien Insect Race members inside the Giant Bubble Flying Insect, yet to be released.

Then came the explosion that swept through the void. The immense force ruthlessly tore the Giant Bubble Flying Insect and the tens of thousands of Alien Insect Race members within to shreds, before grinding them into cosmic dust.

Only after that did the massive shockwave and various radiations burst forth.

Behind Chen Gu, the Sky-Trapping Spider Insects he had used as a meat shield evaporated instantaneously, without a doubt.

Chen Gu took advantage of this moment and recklessly plunged into the mixed swarm ahead. Then, along with the Space Wolf Insects and Sky-Trapping Spider Insects, they were swept out by the explosion's indiscriminate force…

Having received Chen Gu's notice, the Star Armors that retreated ahead of time narrowly made it back to the Mothership. The hatch had just closed when the explosion's force swept over them. The Transport Ship, despite being the furthest away, still shook uncontrollably. Dou Zhanqiong, who had just stepped out of his Mecha, nearly lost his balance and fell to the ground.

Andrew and his companions stood under the Porthole of the Transport Ship, dumbfounded as they watched the explosion.

His executive officer couldn't help but ask, "Captain, can you tell me how Master Chen Gu did it? Even an Antimatter Bomb that small couldn't cause such terrible damage..."

I have no idea either, and I'm just as curious! Andrew thought. I'm waiting to ask Chen Gu for a clear explanation when he gets back! That was supposed to be Second Energy Level? Even a Radiation Missionary of the Fourth Energy Level couldn't do that.

Then it suddenly dawned on him. Something isn't right. Where is Chen Gu? Master Chen Gu hasn't returned. How is he?

Chen Gu was in a dire state. Engulfed within the mixed swarm, he was suffering from the effects of his own Biological Nuclear Explosion. Despite being a bit farther away, the Biological Nuclear Explosion still blasted the entire mixed swarm to bits and pieces.

Chen Gu's Star Armor was also severely damaged. If not for his physique being far superior to that of his peers at the same Energy Level, the explosion would have shaken his internal organs to pieces, and he would have died gloriously on the spot.

Now, his Star Armor was temporarily without power, drifting in the void.

Meanwhile, Chen Gu lay in the cockpit, coughing up blood, one mouthful after another.

What could I do? I was helpless too. I knew full well this profession was all about charging headfirst into danger—inflicting ten thousand casualties on the enemy often meant suffering at least eight thousand in return, perhaps even ten thousand yourself. Yet, when it came to a critical moment, this profession was still the most effective...

Chen Gu struggled to turn his head. At this moment, the Star Armor's backup power activated. Amidst the heavily damaged Star Armor, a sporadic sizzling sound emerged before some equipment reluctantly rebooted.

Chen Gu saw that in the external information feedback system, over seventy percent was blacked out—completely destroyed—while about thirty percent remained barely functional.

Through these partially functioning feeds, Chen Gu saw the Star Sea outside strewn with the corpses of Space Wolf Insects and Sky-Trapping Spider Insects. Farther away, a Giant Bubble Flying Insect, severely injured, was letting out silent screams. It struggled to save itself by contracting its damaged body to protect the Alien Insect Race members inside.

Chen Gu was also startled. This Biological Nuclear Explosion is excessively powerful! What kind of super-lifeform remains did that good-for-nothing Wu Minzhe actually sell me?

It seemed to have a strong amplification effect on the Biological Nuclear Explosion.

Unfortunately, Wu Minzhe is already dead, so I might never get an answer. Chen Gu thought.

The sudden explosion left the Alien Insect Race army somewhat stunned. The remaining Giant Bubble Flying Insects did not dare press too close, and the Transport Ship took the opportunity to return in search of Chen Gu.

Hatches opened one after another, and the Star Armors deployed again. After some searching, Dou Zhanqiong finally spotted Chen Gu amidst a pile of insect corpses.

He excitedly shouted into the communication channel, "He's here! I'm bringing him back!"

This time, Chen Gu's Star Armor was dragged back to the Transport Ship to a hero's welcome. The ordinary warriors on the Transport Ship and the other Mecha pilots all thought this was the captain's "plan"—to use the Antimatter Bomb on the Transport Ship to deal a heavy blow to the Insect Race!

As the warrior who carried out this plan, Chen Gu had shown immense bravery and was perfect in his role. He deserved all the cheers he received.

Yet, Andrew, Dou Zhanqiong, and others were well aware that this was all Chen Gu's idea. Including Dou Zhanqiong himself, no one actually had much faith in the plan.

They didn't even know what kind of bomb Chen Gu had used.

As a battle hero, I'm a classic results-oriented person, Dou Zhanqiong thought. I don't care what bomb you used or whether you hid any secrets. As long as you can slaughter the Alien Insect Race, you are a hero! As long as you're a hero, I respect you.

Dou Zhanqiong practically carried Chen Gu out of the cockpit. Chen Gu's body felt like it was falling apart. Dou Zhanqiong was extremely careful, afraid of aggravating our hero's injuries.

Andrew arrived immediately. "Prepare the treatment pod right away!"

But Chen Gu weakly waved his hand. "No need. Take me back to my room."

As a Second Energy Level professional, he knew his body's condition very well. Entering the treatment pod would mean at least three days to recover. But looking outside, there were still several Giant Bubble Flying Insects left.

Inside them were tens of thousands of Space Wolf Insects and Sky-Trapping Spider Insects. They had just been stunned by the explosion, momentarily unsure of what to do. But give them a little time—or rather, give the Empress behind this Alien Insect Race army a little time to figure out the next step—and they would soon return in force. Chen Gu did not have three days.

Andrew was startled, then recalled the various legendary abilities of professionals. He nodded immediately. "Alright, Dou Zhanqiong, take some men and escort the Master back. For now, follow his orders."

This time Dou Zhanqiong didn't bristle. He gave a military salute, "Yes, sir! Following orders!"

Chen Gu returned to his room. He ushered Dou Zhanqiong and a few others out to stand guard outside the door, commanding, "No one is to disturb me." Then, with great effort, he opened his luggage, which contained two Fifth-Order Genetic Reagents.

This kind of reagent should ideally be used starting from the first order. However, as a professional, Chen Gu no longer needed that. His physical constitution had already surpassed what the previous four orders of reagents could achieve.

Directly using the Fifth-Order, combined with my Atomic Life, should allow for rapid recovery of my body and perhaps even help me reach a higher level!

But, without a doubt, there are still risks.

So Chen Gu decided to inject himself with the remaining two reagents all at once.

Chen Gu barely manifested his Atomic Life, then aimed the nozzle of the reagent syringe at his neck, pressing down hard on the plunger with two fingers.

PSSST! PSSST!

The reagent was quickly injected into his body. Chen Gu felt as if two streams of fire had entered his system. He groaned and completely passed out.
