Chapter 808: Chapter 803 Who is more awesome (4)_1

Finn Lewis’s brain could clearly sense the presence of the Insect Species units. After closing his eyes, Finn immediately initiated contact with Keller, and soon, a connection with Keller was established. At that moment, the link between Finn and Keller became like direct telepathy. But let’s not forget, the distance separating Finn from Keller at this point.

According to the data provided by the Luna Starfield, the resource planet Finn bought from the Death Star system was about 6800 light-years away from the Capital Star region of the Galactic Federation, in a straight line. This distance was almost defying the heavens.

“Supreme Ruler.” Feeling Finn’s thoughts, Keller’s voice came through.

“How is the construction of the Leviathan coming along?” Finn asked directly, and while communicating with Keller, he could feel it was somewhat strenuous, as if his body had been engaged in some tiring activity.

“It should be completely hatched in about ten days.” As Keller spoke, Finn also perceived a series of clear images, like watching a 3D movie. These, however, were direct soul transmissions occurring deep within Finn’s psyche.

“Supreme Ruler, the distance between us is too vast. Once the Leviathan hatches, with its powerful neural network, contacting you will be much easier,” said Keller. Upon hearing this, Finn acknowledged, then decisively ended the connection—just this little time had made him feel as if he had expended a huge amount of energy.

After breaking the connection, that sensation disappeared, but the images relayed by Keller left Finn utterly shaken. Finn had given Keller a resource planet, but now, if anyone were to see that planet, they would likely be utterly taken aback.

The entire planet was covered with dark purple tumors that looked utterly terrifying. The tumor engulfed the whole planet as if a monstrous growth had appeared in the universe. Though smaller than Earth, the planet was about half Earth’s size. The fact that it could cover the whole planet was outrageous—no wonder the Icarus Insect Species could sweep across the entire universe in a different time and space; it was truly horrifying.

Of course, these were just on the surface of the planet. Around the planet were swarms of kingworms, each the size of an A380 airplane, floating in space like giant balloons. Their heads featured a hundred eyes, and their hanging appendages could absorb the surrounding sensory and spatial information, then transmit these to the kingworms’ neural hubs. They could relay messages to other Insect Species combat units in any environment.

They could absorb energy formed by minerals and cosmic radiation to accelerate cell division within their bodies, then dissolve their own internal organs or other bodily substances into a mycetoma—necessary sustenance for the Insect Species units.

In short, it was something indispensable for the Insect Species units. Even though the Insect Species were formidable, the ordinary ones still needed to eat, and the substance secreted by the kingworms was the essential nourishment for them.

Aside from the kingworms, there were various other monstrous spacefaring units capable of living in the universe—these were the combat units of the Insect Species in space. Admittedly, abundance did not necessarily imply suitability for space combat, which was a weakness for Insect Species units, but it did not mean they couldn’t do it.

This scene was staggering. Although hatching a Leviathan was arduous for the Insect Species, requiring the consumption of a planet, it wasn’t that the planet was completely devoured, rather most of the usable minerals and inorganics on it were exhausted. Afterward, the planet would indeed become a world of no use.

But the carrying capacity of a Leviathan was extraordinarily powerful, a vessel incomparable even to a first-class transport ship. They were not on the same level; the creature was much larger than a first-class transport ship and furthermore, it was biotechnology.

It was a pure lifeform capable of living in the universe. Though ugly in appearance, to Finn, it felt oddly familiar—after all, these were entities working for Finn’s cause. They would literally die for him if commanded, without any hesitation or discount.

Finn had planned to use remote control as a means of strengthening his psychic abilities, but now it seemed sensible to stick with the training methods recommended by Luna Starfield. At least for the time being, he should encounter no issues. His progress was quick, and Finn had finally found something that interested him.

Life at the noble academy had been tedious, after figuring out the people there, one would find nothing particularly mysterious about them. Moreover, Finn felt it was not as good as universities on Earth. Of course, the teaching methods here differed from those of Earth’s universities.

But the students here always seemed off to Finn. However, now he didn’t need to be bored anymore. If his psychic power were strengthened, it would be truly his own. Well-utilized, it could be a big help, potentially saving his life in critical moments.

Finn momentarily put these thoughts aside, as now was not the time for him to take action. His cards were still somewhat limited, but that didn’t mean he had no opportunities. Finn might have been idle, but the Rochefort Clan was anything but peaceful.

In the Rochefort Clan’s home system, the St. Teal Lake Galaxy, people were discussing Finn unbeknownst to him. If he were there, he would recognize the man—it was the one who had previously troubled him. Above him was the head of the Rochefort Clan, Gerald Rochefort.

“Have you found the source of his finances?” Gerald regarded the man sternly.

“Clan head, we haven’t found anything yet. The only way is through the Star Bank, but even our people there couldn’t access his information, citing insufficient authority. Perhaps, clan head, you need to exercise higher-level permissions,” the man said respectfully with his head bowed.

He knew full well that the individual before him was someone he could not contend with, and he dared not show any disrespect.

“Useless, you couldn’t even handle such a simple matter at first. You deal with this. Now that his status has changed, if you can’t handle it, you know what your fate will be,” Gerald said, frowning.@@novelbin@@
