Lin Yu did not leave the Bug Race universe immediately.
On the one hand, he needed some time to stabilize and familiarize himself with this new power. On the other hand, it was not yet the agreed time. Without the Merloh, he could only rely on himself. Although he did not need the Dark Energy Auxiliary Calculation Device to display the power of a B-Grade Dark Energy Manipulator, he could only enter the universe for a short period of time. It was still impossible for him to leave this universe.
While Lin Yu continued to stay on Planet Lancer, in the main universe, the situation of the Bug Race alliance was becoming more and more difficult.
Ever since she defeated the Purgatory Legio II, Aliya launched a full-scale war to seize back the Wills Special Supercluster. In just a few days, she had taken down three Star Fields.
After all, the Purgatory Legion did not have many soldiers. If they left a large number of soldiers to defend each Star Field, they would not have the strength to continue attacking.
Therefore, in the Star Fields conquered by Ipnos, there were at most tens of thousands of soldiers left in each place. Some places even had less than ten thousand soldiers left. In addition, there were no Class 7 Leader level creatures guarding the Star Fields. Aliya's war to seize back the Star Fields was really effortless.

Ferman Star Field, 30,000 light-years away from Xassar Star Field.
This was the star field that Aliya had just conquered yesterday. At the same time, it was also the outermost area of the Bug Race's forces. Almost half of the Bug Race's main force was concentrated here.
However, less than a day after conquering Ferman Star Field, the Purgatory Legion had already returned.
Moreover, this was the Purgatory Legio II that was much stronger than the Purgatory Legio I in all aspects.
Unlike the Legio II of Ipnos, the Legio I led by Haig was almost entirely a biological civilization that focused on close combat.
Of course, this did not mean that the Legio I focused on close combat and had poor long-range abilities.
In fact, the Legio I's long-range abilities were not inferior to the Legio II's at all. It was just that their close combat abilities were more outstanding.
Almost every race had an extremely hard shell, and many of them even had powerful shields.
In one part of the battlefield, thousands of fighting insects were encircling a crab-like creature. Its hard shell prevented any insect attacks, be it long-range or close-range, from causing substantial damage.
Although it looked a bit like a crab, its movements were not slow, especially its pair of huge pincers, which were very lethal. After seeing the target, it directly launched an attack at a speed that could not be seen by the naked eye. Often, a casual attack would kill several insects under its huge pincers.
If it was only good at close combat, then it would be fine. However, the problem was that this guy could also launch long-range spatial attacks, causing spatial tearing effects on targets tens of millions of kilometers away.
This … was a little terrifying.
And these were only the descendants of certain races in Legion I. As for the other Rank 7 leaders, they were rampaging through the insectoid army, looking for high-tier insectoid kings to kill. It was as if they were taking the head of an enemy general in an army of ten thousand.
This was the dimensional difference between similar civilizations.
No matter what, starting from the lowest level of insectoids, all the way to the most powerful Imperial Insectoids, there was a dimensional difference of at least one level between them.
Take the soldier-class creatures for example. The insectoid's combat insects were usually Rank 3 or Rank 4 creatures. What about the Purgatory army?
Descendant level creatures were all Rank 5 creatures.
Not only was there a difference in the soldier class, but there was also a difference in the commander class.
This war … could not be fought at all!
In short, the situation was extremely bad. If there were no effective measures, it was only a matter of time before the insectoids were completely wiped out.

Xassalle Star Sector, New Gonggong Battle Planet.
"Marshal, insectoid Aliya has entered Virtual Conference Room 3 and requested to meet with you!"
"Aliya … It's mostly about Ferman Star Sector. Alright, I'll go see her."
Lin Fan nodded. After a few operations on the terminal, he leaned back in his seat.
"Aliya, what's the matter?"
"You're asking me what's the matter? I don't believe you don't know about the situation at Ferman!"
She glared at Lin Fan as if Lin Fan had done something wrong. Lin Fan suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.
"I know about the situation there, but didn't we agree that the insectoids have to delay the Purgatory army for at least two days!"
"Don't talk about two days, I might not even be able to hold on for two hours!"
This surprised Lin Fan.
He had already expected the insectoids to be unable to hold on. After all, the enemy had more than double their forces and even had a suspected Rank 9 creature.
However, even if the insectoids were weak, their numbers were still there. But how long had it been since Lin Fan received the news of the war at Ferman Star Sector?
At most, it was an hour. Even if all the insectoids stood still and allowed the enemy to slaughter them, it would not be that fast.
Unless, the enemy's overall strength far exceeded Lin Fan's expectations.
If that was the case, then the problem was a little troublesome …
"You want our fleet to go and reinforce them?"
"Even if I did, would you agree?"
Aliya sneered.
"I don't need your army to reinforce me, but I want you humans to use Zero Point Armament. I can even blow up my insectoids!"
"Oh?"
'This is interesting. It seems that Aliya is really desperate. She even came up with such a method.'
However, as she said, it was absolutely impossible for Lin Fan to send a fleet to Ferman Star Sector to fight Haig head on.
Therefore, Aliya might as well take a step back and ask the Federation to use Zero Point Armament to temporarily repel the Purgatory Army!
Anyway, according to the plan Lin Fan and Aliya had agreed on, it would be fine as long as they could drag it out for two days.
As for the insectoids at the frontlines that were completely entangled with the Purgatory Army, if they died, then so be it.
Although there were a lot of them, at least Aliya could accept it. After all, they were just low-level insectoids. It was better than a large number of King Insectoids and high-level insectoids being killed, right?
At the same time, this was an acceptable option for Lin Fan as well.
He would send a fleet to Ferman Star Sector and stay at the back of the battlefield to provide firepower support with Zero Point Armament.
The only thing he had to be wary of was … Haig's super long-range attack.
Of course, since he already knew the basic parameters of that attack, there were still many ways to avoid it.
For example …
"Okay, I will send a fleet to reinforce them. They will arrive in ten minutes!"
