Zerg: After being rescued by the Major General, I pledged myself to him.

"Is it Anluo?"

Lu Yao clenched his fists tightly, wishing he could appear in front of An Luo immediately and punch him in the face.

"Was Anluo responsible for all that filth on the StarNet?"

Yan Mo did not speak.

An Qing sighed: "I guess so. I know my brother. Since he was so eager to show off in front of Yan Mo, he must have done something."

"Eugene said that only the Zerg high command knew about the hijacking of the spaceship."

Yan Mo looked at An Qing: "The Marshal's Mansion must have received the news as well."

An Qing gave a helpless twitch of his lips: "Indeed, but I haven't been back to the capital planet for many years, and I don't have much status in the Marshal's Mansion or the An family. It's not surprising that An Luo got the news earlier than me."

An Qing is in a rather awkward position. The insect that caused Major General Lan Ze to be taken away by the Male Insect Protection Association is his brother. Although he did nothing wrong, the blood relationship between him and An Qing cannot be severed.

All he could say was, "I'm sorry."

Yan Mo shook his head: "This has nothing to do with you."

He wasn't concerned about breaking up or not; An Qing was a friend worth keeping, so naturally he wouldn't hold a grudge against him because of An Luo.

"Anlu doesn't even treat Anqing like a younger brother, so you don't need to take the blame for what he did."

Seeing that An Qing was a little uncomfortable, Lu Yao also spoke up to comfort her.

An Qing's expression softened slightly as she looked at the changing battle situation on the screen.

The Fourth Army was the first to deal with the advanced alien beasts, and the new commander, Lan Yang, directed the dispatch missions in an orderly manner.

Part of the fourth squad of female insects went to find resources, part stayed behind to make arrangements, and the other part bypassed the routes on the map and went into the dense forest.

All the female soldiers seemed unaffected by the temporary change of commander, demonstrating extremely high military competence.

The Second Army was also divided into several parts. One part searched for supplies, while another part, led by Major General Harder, headed towards the route of the Fourth Army.

"Anlu thought that by eliminating Major General Lanze, the Second Army could widen the gap with the Fourth Army. It seems he misjudged the situation."

Yan Mo nodded and hummed in agreement.

He spent some time on Epha and visited the Epha military base several times.

Having witnessed the training results of the female soldiers in training grounds and simulation chambers, they also gained a certain understanding of the strength of the Fourth Army.

The female soldiers of the Second Army were far inferior to those of the Fourth Army.

Moreover, the female guards that Lanze brought back were the elite of the elite.

In recent years, the Fourth Army's retreat to Ephastar has made the First, Second and Third Legions lower their guard, but the Fourth Army has never stopped its progress, researching new weapons, new mechs, and new combat methods. Every once in a while, it will follow Lanze and Saines to large-scale starfield battlefields for training.

The Fourth Army today is far superior to the First, Second, and Third Armies.

Although Lan Yang was Lan Ze's subordinate officer, Lan Ze had already prepared for the mental power disorder long before he met Yan Mo. Over the years, he had been working hard to cultivate Lan Yang so that Lan Yang could take charge of the overall situation if something happened to him.

In retrospect, Lan Yang did a great job and lived up to Lan Ze's expectations, successfully leading the Fourth Army to victory in the training exercise.

I heard the sound of glass shattering next door.

Yan Mo stood up with satisfaction.

He said to Lu Yao, "Let's go, I'll go to the Lu family with you."

"Then I'll take my leave now."

An Qing also got up. An Luo next door was furious, and he also prepared to leave early to avoid running into An Luo.

His older brother has always enjoyed making things difficult for him since he was a child.

He's in a bad mood right now, so it's best to avoid him.

After leaving the floating observation island, Yan Mo followed Lu Yao back to the Lu family home.

Lu Min was somewhat surprised to see Yan Mo, but when she thought about what had happened on the StarNet, she understood Yan Mo's purpose.

He didn't want to talk to Yan Mo at first. He had asked Lu Yao to invite Yan Mo and Lan Ze back to the Lu family for dinner, but Lu Min refused, which made him unhappy for a long time.

But now that Lanze, that little bug, has an S-class male bug backing him up, Lu Min doesn't want to make a scene that's too ugly and become a laughing stock for the other nobles on the capital planet.

When Yan Mo came over this time, he weighed the pros and cons and still let him in.

No matter what happens to the Fourth Army or Lanze, it won't benefit the Lu family.

Lu Min had experienced the bitterness of his family's decline since childhood, and he had finally risen again with the help of Lan Hechen. He didn't want to fall back down.

It was quite late when they left the Lu residence. Lan Ze's personal guards escorted Yan Mo back to the Lan family manor before returning to the Fourth Army base to report.

Yan Mo opened his personal computer and found Lan Hechen's personal computer number.

This was the first time he had contacted his father-in-law since leaving the military hospital on Ephastar.

Lan Hechen must already know that Lan Ze was taken to the Male Insect Protection Association. He needs to find Lan Hechen to find out what happened.

Less than a day after they parted, Yan Mo could no longer suppress his longing and worry for Lan Ze.

The video call was quickly connected via the optical computer.

An image of Lan Hechen was projected onto Yan Mo's screen.

"Lord Yanmo."

Lan Hechen's voice sounded tired, but still held an air of authority.

"Female father, I want to know how much longer Lanze needs to stay in the Male Insect Protection Association."

Lan Hechen was taken aback at first. According to the law, Yan Mo and Lan Ze were already married, so Yan Mo should indeed address Lan Hechen as his "female father".

However, among the Zerg, male Zerg have a high and arrogant status, and very few male Zerg truly respect their female partners from the bottom of their hearts.

Lan Hechen finally felt somewhat satisfied with this son-in-law.

"There is neither evidence favorable to Lanze nor evidence harmful to him. The Male Insect Protection Association can only detain him for a maximum of thirty days."

Yan Mo frowned: "Thirty days is too long."

Lan Hechen paused for a moment, then said calmly, "Lord Yanmo, I think you have some misunderstanding about the female insect's constitution. Even if Lan Ze is locked in the punishment room for thirty days, it will not cause him any harm."

Yan Mo froze, then exclaimed incredulously, "How could there be no injury? He must feel pain too!"

Yan Mo had seen the contents of the punishment room on the StarNet and knew that it contained various instruments of torture for taming female insects.

Lan Hechen shook his head in disagreement and affirmed, "Pain is nothing to female insects."

Yan Mo wanted to refute him, but when she looked up and saw Lan Hechen's expression, she realized that he really didn't think the pain was anything.

Yan Mo suddenly realized what kind of female insect Lan Hechen was, based on the few words Lan Ze had spoken of.

Yan Mo suddenly asked, "General Lan, do you hate Lu Min?"

Lan Hechen replied without hesitation: "I don't hate him. Why should I hate him? He gave me what I wanted, and I gave him what he wanted. It's fair."

Yan Mo knew that Lan Hechen wasn't lying; he genuinely believed it.

For a female insect like Lan Hechen, power and life are the most important things. He may have fatherly feelings for Lan Ze and love Lan Ze, but his personality means that there won't be many tender moments between them.

His demands were realistic; he cared more about things that would actually threaten Lanze. As for being whipped a few times or suffering some pain, those were nothing to him.

That's why Lan Ze said that if Yan Mo hadn't differentiated into a male insect that could help Lan Ze purify his spiritual domain, Lan Hechen wouldn't have supported them being together.

While Yan Mo disagreed with Lan Hechen's views, he understood that in a place like the Zerg, Lan Hechen's ideas were precisely what protected him.

Therefore, he travels farther than many female insects.

Yan Mo suddenly missed Lan Ze a little, and felt a pang of heartache. Perhaps in this world, only he cared whether those scars, which were insignificant to the female insects, would cause Lan Ze pain.
