Captain, your ship has exploded again.

Just as they were about to enter the wormhole, the bugs found the bridge.

Zhang Xun, who had just peeked out and was sitting with his back to the gate, opened fire. He had barely felt anything after coming out of the wormhole. Seeing the L6 base ahead, Zhang Xun reminded him.

"Captain, try the communications base! If there are problems, try controlling the direction."

Carmen tried communicating with the L6 base, and was able to make a normal call.

Carmen informed Johnny of the situation.

Upon seeing the three warships charging towards them, Zhang Xun reminded the warships to adjust their direction before attacking.

When the attack began, Carmen steered the warship away from Earth's course and in the opposite direction.

The three charging warships drew fire from a distance, preventing the mother worm from controlling its course.

"Captain, you all evacuate in the lifeboats. Leave one person behind to control the course. A few men, come with me to kill that bug."

"If the vast majority of people evacuate successfully, destroy the warship; otherwise, control the direction. Killing the bugs is our last resort."

Everyone sprang into action.

"Tia, don't attack yet. We'll rush over and draw their attention. You need to make sure you kill them with one blow."

The group then went to the engine room, leaving one person to control the spaceship.

Zhang Xun, as the main firepower provider, quickly advanced to the vicinity of the engine room, looking at the nearly 2 insects in front and the small plasma insects behind.

Zhang Xun instructed the captain to proceed to the escape hull first, using one hand to fire the M56 while using the spare rifle's grenade launcher with the other to shoot at the small plasma bugs behind them.

Seeing the number of mobile infantry around him dwindling, Zhang Xun cursed in the channel.

"Karl, you bastard, hurry up and show us your trump card, or we'll all retreat and blow up this warship."

Zhang Xun pulled out a grenade and threw it at the plasma bugs behind him. At that moment, the warrior bugs painted in yellow rushed into the swarm of bugs.

"This is my trump card, Zhang Xun. I'm very interested in you."

"I'm only interested in women, so all the bugs rush at me."

That's all.

"Useless! What's the point of bringing so many bugs on board then!"

I kept two grenades and threw the rest at the location of the plasma bugs.

"Everyone evacuate in the escape pods! I'm going to kill this giant bug!"

Henry, who was seriously injured below, saw Zhang Xun jump onto the pillar and understood what he was going to do.

Are you planning to sacrifice yourself for a cause?

"Commander, once I rush up and kill the queen insect, you teleport me back to the resting space. Take the warship if you can, otherwise just leave it here."

He pulled out all the grenades he had, told everyone to evacuate, took out one and threw it with all his might at the mother insect, while the rest fell limply at his feet.

Two explosions cleared a large area below, and the mother insect also severed the last cable because of the grenade.

He fired and jumped toward the mother insect, using the two daggers he had just stuck to the pillar at his heels to stab the mother insect in the eyes, and then pulled out a grenade and threw it into her mouth.

The escape pod successfully ejected everyone who survived except Zhang Xun.

Everyone in the cabin watched as the John Warden plunged back into the wormhole and disappeared, and they all saluted in farewell.

If Zhang Xun could see this now, he would definitely say something. All three women survived, so he should at least put on a show for them!

As the adrenaline subsided, Zhang Xun felt weak in his limbs and returned to the resting space with a familiar teleportation sensation.

Zhang Xun, who had just been teleported from the mission world, collapsed face down on the ground.

"Tongzi, you piece of trash, can't you find a comfortable place to put me down?"

"This is the initial point; it cannot be moved or changed."

"Tell me earlier next time so I can make some preparations."

Zhang Xun flipped the helmet over and removed it.

Are there still bugs on the USS John Warden?

"Have."

"Don't you have any after-sales service? Does the captain have to handle everything himself?"

"Only the captain doesn't have it."

"Why? Is it occupational discrimination?"

"The captain needs to organize the fleet and forces on his own and have relatively comprehensive capabilities."

Zhang Xun stared speechlessly at the virtual blue sky in the rest area.

"Extend the rest area by 1 kilometer and leave the John Warden there. Have all the robots armed and ready to exterminate the pests."

The troop of robots lined up caught the attention of Natal, who had recovered from her injuries.

The robot brought over a chair, lifted it up, and placed it on the chair.

"What's wrong with you?"

"I was scared and a little weak. Could you get me a glass of juice, please?"

Natal didn't say much, but brought some juice and sat down with them, watching the robot army rush into the John Warden and begin killing the bugs.

After Zhang Xun recovered, he looked at the losses: 1362 insects of various kinds were killed, but 3176 combat robots were lost.

It seems that insects still have the advantage in small spaces. Maybe we should find some biotechnology from somewhere else?

"Natal, how long did it take you to recover?"

"I finished my treatment about four days ago and went to see the transformation of the Archangel after leaving the medical facility."

"How are the changes?"

"The main structure has been strengthened, a hovering engine has been added, and a new engine and power core have been installed. However, the shield you obtained is only enough to defend against energy weapons, isn't it?"

"We'll use them for now, mainly because what we've acquired are all small fry. The newly acquired John Warden warship also needs to be modified."

Zhang Xun suddenly realized that the settlement hadn't been completed yet.

"System, global settlement."

"World settlement: Mission 1 completed, Mission 2 completed, Mission 3 completed."

"Recruited soldier Zhang Xun has been promoted to sergeant first class, with a military pay of 3000G."

"One John Warden, acquired from the world; 20 partially damaged Starship Mobile Infantry armor sets; and remnants of Zerg technology."

It's alright, at least we have two warships now. When the time comes, we can get some manufacturing technology, go to other worlds, mass-produce troops, and go it alone. Wouldn't that be wonderful?

Having regained his strength, Zhang Xun stood up and walked towards the planting area, looking at the various grains, vegetables, and fruits that had ripened in the field. He planned to bring some people from the next world.

"Natal, are these robots any good?"

"Simple ones are okay, but they can't build things according to the requirements. There must be blueprints and detailed specifications. They can't handle vague concepts."

"It seems we are still far from being able to form a fighting force."

"When you reach the rank of lieutenant, you can specify an fuzzy type world to enter."

"What does 'system' mean? Can I choose which world to enter?"

"After reaching the rank of second lieutenant, you can enter a world with a vague description of its name before confirming the world, but it may not be the world you want to go to, since there are errors in the universe."

That's good too. If we ever need that kind of technology, we can just look it up online.

"Tongzi, could you please tell me how many warships I can bring into the world?"

"One ship for officers below the rank of lieutenant, two ships for officers from second lieutenant to first lieutenant, three ships for captains, and five ships for major generals."

"The rank of major general and above requires military merit, and for now you are just a lowly soldier with no combat ability."

"You little bastard, you're a complete weakling! You're a useless system, I have to do everything myself. I'm going to rename you 'Miscellaneous System'!"

"Request to reject the system name change has failed!"

"Ugh! I'm so angry!"

Zhang Xun picked up the M56 beside him and fired at the screen until he emptied all the bullets in the magazine.

"Where is Dog King's next world?"

"peaceful."

"What kind of world is this? It sounds familiar, but I can't quite place it."

Never mind, we'll just go to that world and steal some people to temporarily make up for the lack of robots.

"Natal, prepare the Archangel, take M1 Heretic and UD4 with you, train the robots to temporarily serve as crew, and get 5 robot fighters on board."
