Chapter 460: Chapter 460: Has Gu Jue Met with an Accident?
Sheng An looked up at the window and said, "It seems there are other squads returning to the Main Star as well."
Their mission this time was to defend the Empire Main Star, and they would not pursue the desperate enemy at this time.
Su Wan nodded, "Then let’s return to the Main Star too."
"Yes!"
The Ninth Squad’s spaceship finally made a successful return trip, passing through the protective layer and arriving back at the Main Star port.
As soon as the spaceship landed, Ouyang Qing immediately took a professional medical team to take Su Wan and the child away. Before leaving, Su Wan told Pandora to replace her and lead everyone to the military department to complete their mission.
"Captain, you should rush to the hospital for a check-up. Leave everything concerning the mission to me. After we finish handing in the mission, we’ll visit you at the hospital."
Su Wan nodded.
She was so tired.
And her heart was extremely uneasy due to her excessive worry for Gu Jue.
As Su Wan lay on the hospital bed, she clenched her fists, continuing to intently feel for Little Mushroom’s emotions.
Ajue, what on earth has happened to you!
Meanwhile, Gu Jue stood silently in a deep valley, the valley walls covered with insect eggs, and at his feet lay Doris, her body reduced to half.
Doris’s once proudly flaunted golden hair had been burned away, she was in a sorry state, disheveled and in disarray, green blood perpetually flowing from her Insectoid body.
She sneered, "Gu Jue, do you really think you can kill me like this? Let me tell you, I’m not the real Insect Queen; this body of the Insect Queen is nothing more than a vessel for me!"
"I am an immortal personality, I cannot be killed!"
"And you, in your quest to kill me, have been lured into this Insect Nest. No matter how powerful you are, the constantly emerging Insect Beasts will deplete your superpower, exhausting you until your demise, becoming nourishment for the Insect Beasts!"
"Your Mecha is powerful indeed, but even it has a moment when its energy will be exhausted!"
"Aren’t you deeply in love with Su Wan? Hahaha, you’ll never see her again until your death! Because the space of the Insect Nest is several hundred million light-years away from your Empire Planet!"
Doris had talked a lot but suddenly realized that Gu Jue remained unflustered. When Insect Beasts attacked him, he didn’t even need to act, his Mecha would slash those Insect Beasts to death!
Doris was startled, "Why aren’t you worried at all about being here?"
"Hmm, it’s okay." The last message Gu Jue had received was from Wanwan.
She said that she and the child were safe and sound.
For Gu Jue, this was the best news. Only at this moment could he truly be at ease.
After the Insectoids at the protective layer had been cleared, Wanwan and the child would definitely return to the Main Star. They were surely safe now.
Gu Jue looked down at the half of the giant ant’s body that was crawling on the ground and said, "Immortal personality? Could it be, you are one of Queen Gaia’s personalities, and Queen Gaia is a dual personality?"
The moment Doris, who had intended to provoke Gu Jue, was taken aback.
Looking at Doris’s distressed face, which flashed with a hint of stunned expression, Gu Jue integrated all the information and data from over the years.
He said: "If you are a personality of Queen Gaia, then it makes sense to intentionally make your appearance identical to hers."
"Back then, it was rumored that Queen Gaia underwent a superpower core removal surgery, but later the data Wanwan obtained showed that Gaia possessed both fire element superpowers and spatial superpowers."
Gu Jue looked up indifferently at Doris crawling on the ground, "So actually, Gaia did undergo a surgery, but what she removed wasn’t the superpower core; it was you, wasn’t it?"
"No! It was I who discarded her! It wasn’t that she discarded me!"
The half-corpse lying on the ground suddenly twisted, and with a crisp snap... the giant ant’s head twisted off by itself, rolling to the side.
Gu Jue walked over and kicked it, only to find that the huge ant didn’t move at all.
It could be said that the Insect Queen was truly dead.
That crazy Doris, no one knew where she went.
White Tiger, "Master, I have read about eternal personalities in the archives before, they are akin to parasitic souls. If the Doris just now wasn’t lying, she must have parasitized the Insect Queen’s body, killed the Insect Queen’s soul, and then taken over the Insect Queen’s body as her own."
Over the years, countless people of the Insect Clan had died because of the torment of Doris.
If they knew that the one they had been following was not their Insect Queen but the murderer who killed their Insect Queen, who knows what they would dare to do.
However, Gu Jue narrowed his eyes and watched that direction.
This Insect Nest, which had given birth to billions of Insect Beasts, was still continuously spawning members of the Insect Clan.
Gu Jue, "It would be great if we could blow this place up."
White Tiger hurriedly said, "Master, you must absolutely not do that! We are all on this planet right now without a spaceship, unable to fly away. If you blow up the planet, the three of us would have to drift in the universe!"
"Master, you must stay calm! You haven’t even named your daughter yet! Besides, would you bear to leave your lady?"
Gu Jue, "I was just saying."
Azure Dragon was brought along as well, but Gu Jue had to conserve Azure Dragon’s energy. As for White Tiger... Without a signal, White Tiger, although still online, was just an offline artificial intelligence.
Apart from chatting, it was of little use.
White Tiger: QAQ
It actually still had some uses.
They were currently sitting cross-legged on a piece of dilapidated city wall, not knowing what this structure had been before. In any case, it had been gnawed full of holes by the Insect Clan.
Gu Jue and Azure Dragon took turns fending off the attacks of the Insect Beasts, and when they repelled another wave of Insect Beasts’ attacks, Azure Dragon suddenly exclaimed.
Gu Jue, "What’s wrong?"
Azure Dragon, "Master, I... It seems like I’m growing mushrooms!"
Mushrooms?
Gu Jue’s eyes suddenly lit up!

Empire Main Star, Medicine Center.
After Su Wan was taken to the Medicine Center, Ouyang Qing immediately led people to conduct a thorough examination of her body, confirming that she was only exhausted from using her superpowers and a bit weak and tired from giving birth, with no other issues.
Ouyang Qing said gently, "Xiaowan, you’re sleepy, so take a nap. I’ll take care of the child for you."
"Mm, thank you, Sister Ouyang."
Su Wan originally knew that her mother Lin Ranyue was coming to see her, and that Little Gu Chen was also rushing from the Imperial Palace to see her, but she was too tired and sleepy to wait for them, quickly falling into a deep sleep.
However, due to excessive worry for Gu Jue, Su Wan, although asleep, had a dream, and in the dream, it was all about Gu Jue!
In her dream, Su Wan was in a very dark and damp place, with various kinds of the Insect Clan present, including mindless Insect Beasts and intelligent Insectoids.
A massive swarm of insects were attacking Gu Jue wave after wave!
Gu Jue’s black combat uniform was covered in green fluid, and Azure Dragon’s huge mecha lay on one side, somehow immobilized, unable to move any longer.
"Ajue!"
