The three insects rushed all the way to the central dispatcher in the public office. The staff operating the system stepped aside when they saw them coming.

He then revealed the message displayed on the screen: "President Lin, we have completely lost contact with the border town in the north."

According to the last video footage transmitted from the scene, the area is currently engulfed in flames of war.

"Can Loga's spaceship be detected?" Lin An asked.

"The jamming devices over there are all on, so they can't be detected at all. However, because there's a no-fly zone and laser sensors in the northern border area, they'll definitely head towards Jiaer City to avoid taking any risks."

The staff quickly manipulated the dial to draw the possible routes the spacecraft might take.

"But..." The employee hesitated for a moment before continuing, "Jial City borders both the south and the east."

They will inevitably pass through the south on their return journey.

Fei's face darkened as he looked at the two insects in front of him: "What happened in the south?"

In recent years, relations between the Eastern and Southern Zerg have been quite good, and they even secretly harbor the idea of ​​forming an alliance.

Why do these insects behave this way when they are said to be from the south?

"Yes," Lin An turned to look at Fei, "you're a traitor to the military."

"?" Fei looked at him in confusion, but quickly understood what he meant: "I'll go find him."

Linping pulled Fei aside: "When you go, be careful not to mention Jiang Xu's identity, not even a single detail. Got it?"

"Um."

"I'll send a few bugs to follow you, so be careful on the road. The northern border is in complete chaos. We don't know yet if Jiaer City is in the same situation as the border town." Lin An spoke quickly, wanting to explain the current situation in detail.

"No need, I can bring my own subordinates. It's just that the military's supplies may need your cooperation in sending them to the military region with Major General Morgan."

Things were progressing in a more serious manner than they had imagined. At this moment, the spaceship carrying Jiang Xu and his group had come to a stop in a ruin in the suburbs.

The local indigenous people were also affected because of their proximity to the border.

Although countless houses collapsed, fortunately there were no major casualties.

Jiang Xu is currently helping nearby soldiers and civilians move to a safe place.

"Thank you so much."

Jiang Xu helped a man with a leg disability retreat to the air-raid shelter. The man he was helping expressed his gratitude to him.

"It's alright." It just so happens that we happened to be there. When war breaks out, it's always the ordinary people who suffer in the end.

Jiang Xu looked at the scorched earth before him and sighed.

He was somewhat grateful that he lived in a peaceful era.

He truly witnessed the cruelty of war after arriving in the Zerg territory.

He glanced at the insects who had come with him; they were all helping to take care of the local residents.

"Uncle, there's a war here every year. Haven't you ever thought about moving to another place?" Jiang Xu knew about the eastern insect region.

Aside from its stricter hierarchy, it's not much better than the frequently war-torn north.

"No, it's not that. More than ten years ago, this place was very peaceful, but somehow it has become like this now."

We old folks have lived here our whole lives, and we still want to be buried in the same place we were born.” His words were filled with reluctance and a sense of vicissitude.

Jiang Xu looked at the old female insect he was supporting, who had lost a leg but was still unwilling to leave her hometown.

Is this what people often refer to as "fallen leaves returning to their roots"?

Missiles streaked across the sky, and streaks of light flashed in the distance.

Loga quickly walked towards Jiang Xu, took the female insect from his hand, and after arranging everything, returned to Jiang Xu's side:

"I had my men try again at the communication center, but we still can't get through. This is the first time we've banned all air traffic signals during this war."

"How is Jiaer City now?" Jiang Xu silently looked into the distance.

Their ship was hit by a stray bullet as it passed by, but they reacted quickly and found a large rock behind the village nearby as cover.

Fortunately, they dodged the subsequent attacks.

"We can't contact Jiaer City either. We'll only know the specifics when we get there." Loga looked at the streaks of fire shooting across the sky, wondering when things would stop.

"Don't they care about ordinary people when it comes to their insects?" Jiang Xu frowned as he listened to the distant bombing sounds.

"What are ordinary people in the eyes of those powerful insects?" Loga said with a touch of desolation.

Moreover, the outside world is not as peaceful as the Jiang family's. If it weren't for the Jiang family protecting these insects and preventing those male insects and nobles from bullying them, he would probably be suffering somewhere right now.

Jiang Xu was unaware that these insects treated him differently simply because he was a member of the Jiang family.

"Can we leave tonight?" Jiang Xu looked up at the sky and noticed that there seemed to be fewer missiles in the air.

"It should be possible." Neither side was firing relentlessly; "We'll take advantage of their rest breaks and leave directly."

They've been stuck here for several hours, and the liaison center is probably in complete chaos by now.

The battle didn't end until midnight. After bidding farewell to the local residents, Jiang Xu and the other insects immediately set off for Jiaer City.

Jiaer City is located in the Three Realms, so the city is very prosperous and there are countless travelers coming and going.

When Jiang Xu arrived here, he found that this place was completely different from the war zone; it was perhaps the difference between heaven and hell.

Very ironic.

The insects quickly entered the city, and only then did they relax.

"Your Excellency Jiang Xu, after we enter the city, let's find a hotel to rest for a day, what do you think?"

Jiang Xu looked at each insect, whose face was full of exhaustion.

That's true, we traveled all night without eating anything.

"Hmm. Let's find a place for everyone to rest and recuperate; there's no need to rush." ​​Jiang Xu thought for a moment and said to them:

"The company will cover all expenses during this break. You can decide what you want to eat and drink."

Luo Jia's eyes flashed, knowing that the other party was trying to bribe Chong Xin, so he cooperated and said, "Lord Jiang Xu is very generous."

They quickly found out about a hotel, and after parking their spaceship at the logistics point, they headed straight for the hotel.

A magnificent building appeared before them, a castle-style structure in gold and white, with three sub-females standing on each side of the golden gate.

As they approached, they all bowed to them, and several delicate voices rang out simultaneously: "Welcome!"

One of the sub-females, whose face was somewhat taller than the others, took a delicate step forward, her eyes fixed on Jiang Xu: "Are you here for a meal or to stay?"

"Check-in." Jiang Xu said calmly, his expression largely unchanged.

"Okay, please follow me." He led Jiang Xu directly to the registration desk.

Jiang Xu walked for a while and realized something was wrong. He looked back and saw that Luo Jia and his group of insects were being stopped at the door.
