In this kind of hunt, the role of the military fleet is indispensable. The warship's main cannon is the main source of damage output, and whether they can ultimately kill the super life form depends on whether the gunner can seize the opportunity.

High-level professionals are more used to restrain super life forms, protecting the warships from direct attacks and trying to drive the prey to a suitable position for bombardment.

Because Bai Yunpeng specifically instructed, this time the rental price of the fleet and the quality of the fleet itself have undergone qualitative changes.

Originally, Nie He only managed to bring in a regular fleet, with no more than twelve main starships—these starships were generally seriously damaged in battles with the Insect Race, and scrap applications had already been submitted.

Repairing them would be less cost-effective than building a new one.

But the main cannons are intact. Or the damage to the main cannons is minor, with slight repairs they can still be used. As for other parts, a layer of iron covering is enough, as long as they can ensure airtightness to fly into the Star Sea.

This kind of main starship is specifically prepared for similar "missions."

They don't need much defense, anyway, if a super life form touches it, it will immediately create a huge hole.

Internal corruption in the military is common, and this is almost inevitable in any era or country. But Marshal Bai and the others are not foolish enough to use the intact starships of the main fleet to make quick money.

However, even such "special-purpose" main starships have differences in quality. For example, among those prepared for Nie He, at least five main starship cannons have been patched up, which are okay for normal firing but can only withstand three full-load shots.

Whereas for Chen Gu, although the warships were repaired, the main cannons are all original. Moreover, the number of main starships has skyrocketed from twelve to forty-eight!

Nie He and his group seemed to have caught wind of something. Not content, they returned to the Confederation, running around trying to get a slice of the pie from Chen Gu.

But ever since they entered the Confederation, they encountered obstacles everywhere, and none of the once reliable connections dared to help them make introductions.

Moreover, every time they went out, they encountered three or four waves of law enforcement agencies finding various excuses to check on them.

It only took two days for Nie He to realize this young man, Chen Gu, whom he had underestimated, actually had an extremely powerful background and strength, at least within the Confederation, he was not to be trifled with.

Having wasted travel expenses, Nie He tactfully left with his people in disgrace—if they continued to linger on the Capital Star, disaster might strike.

This "business" already caused some discontent among Nie He's subordinates, and returning empty-handed a second time caused a subtle rift within this small team.

…

To Chen Gu, who has already reached the Eighth Energy Level, Nie He wasn't an issue at all. Chen Gu didn't even personally get involved in this matter.

The Eighth Energy Level within the Bureau of Mystic Security already signifies a big shot, not to mention Chen Gu's close ties with Aviloya and Rainbow.

Back then, it was Chen Gu, this capable officer, who assisted the Director-General in squeezing out Deputy Director Ding Zhou.

So, with the Bureau of Mystic Security's vast intelligence network spreading out, Nie He naturally came under its cover. Upon discovering the problem, those below naturally contacted various law enforcement agencies on the Capital Star to create troubles for Nie He, helping the Bureau's rising star, Chen Gu, to solve the issue in advance.

Nie He is also at the Eighth Energy Level, but would he dare to act rashly on the Capital Star? Even outside the Capital Star, as long as he's within the Confederation, Nie He, this dragon, has to lay low.

The principal and Aviloya are both ruthless individuals capable of infiltrating the Star State alone!

When Nie He left the Capital Star in disgrace, Chen Gu had already led all personnel, under the escort of a massive fleet, through several space jumps to reach an ancient and distant star domain.

"We are now very far from the star domain controlled by human civilization. We can no longer conduct space jumps, and there will be a long four-day voyage ahead." The fleet's general reported to Chen Gu, and everyone was already prepared for this.

Throughout the journey, Chen Gu continuously switched his memory to that of the tyrant Gulati, "recalling" those past experiences.

Yet Chen Gu, after all, differs from the real Gulati. Viewing the memory of an ancient historical figure from a later perspective allows him to be more objective and discover some details Gulati subconsciously overlooked.

Super life forms are very powerful, not just in strength, but also in wisdom.

Gulati similarly possessed wisdom far exceeding ordinary people, but Chen Gu still discovered that during that era, Gulati seemed to have been unknowingly manipulated by a hidden hand, caught in a huge vortex.

Regarding Gulati's death, in His memory, it had nothing to do with humans. He was then pursuing the elevation of His life to a higher level.

With Gulati's understanding of space, if He could complete this elevation, He could transcend the current spatial structure of the world, and the real world and the Endless Realm would be "low-level worlds" for Him at that time.

But when searching for the most crucial "key," He encountered a trap, but it was not humans who set the trap to ambush Him, it was nine giant bugs!

Comparable to super life forms, the Alien Insect Race!

Gulati was terrifyingly powerful, and after a fierce battle, He killed six of the nine bugs on the spot, and the remaining three were severely injured, but eventually, Gulati could no longer hold on and fell...

Chen Gu was quite surprised, firstly because the hidden hand was actually the Insect Race? Some Insect Queen?

The Empress capable of nurturing nine super lifeform-sized giant insects... However, in the battles between humans and the Alien Insect Race, such giant insects have never appeared.

Secondly, based on the analysis from Gulati's memory, what it pursued, the "key," is very likely the Celestial Code item 00-00.

Gulati's memory is quite complete. However, this guy truly deserved the nickname "Tyrant," as it's extremely radical and irritable. Many memories carry obvious subjective colors, even arrogantly ignoring some details that should be very important, making the memory very vague. Chen Gu finds it difficult to make an accurate judgment based on its memories.

Chen Gu borrowed Gulati's memory, allowing him to exhibit Gulati's various abilities through "The Past of Four Hundred People." Until today, Chen Gu is quite powerful, no longer like when he first received "The Past of Four Hundred People." He can now sense the difference in power when he borrows memories, compared to the original.

"Borrowing Gulati's memory allows me to exert the strength of just entering the Ninth Power Level, which is vastly different from Gulati's peak true strength."

"Compared to the Principal and Aviloya, there should also be a significant gap."

"However, entering the Ninth Power Level at least qualifies me to participate in this hunting expedition."

If the hunting target is a regular super lifeform, the Seventh Energy Level can participate, and the Eighth Energy Level can effectively restrain and drive—like a hunting dog during a hunter's chase of a beast.

But facing the Myriad Forms Heavenly Dragon, even participation from the Eighth Energy Level is barely enough; the Ninth Energy Level is considered safe; otherwise, it's easy to perish.

Four days passed quickly, and Chen Gu used this time to adapt to Gulati's various abilities.

The fleet stopped in a bizarre star region, surrounded by cosmic rays of various colors, which appeared infinitely grand and magnificent compared to the colors of light seen on planets.

On the surface, there are no planets in the void, but the professionals present can sense that this place is different from other starry skies: the power of space is magnified here, even showing a certain degree of distortion and overlap.

Milgray suppressed her excitement and glanced at Chen Gu beside her.

Having used Gulati's memory, what Chen Gu saw in this Star Sea was different from others, able to distinguish the various spatial traps.

Chen Gu casually opened a holographic screen, then thoughtfully extended his finger, pressing one light point after another on the screen: "Deploy the fleet according to these coordinates."

The map displayed on the holographic screen is the star chart ahead, and the position Chen Gu provided is where each main battleship should be positioned.

Besides the main battleships, other warships in the fleet aren't qualified to be the primary force in the hunt. They can only engage in harassment from the periphery.

"Alright." The general agreed, immediately going to issue the orders.

The assembled main battleships each activated, unaware of the location Chen Gu arranged. Although the hunting plan was designed by Milgray, it requires Chen Gu's capabilities as a Void Walker for specific execution.

Once all main battleships were stationed, the main cannon hatches opened, barrels extended, and partial charging commenced, Chen Gu smiled slightly at everyone and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, it's our turn to take the stage."

The exalted ones flew out of the starship.

A layer of light bluish star gleam covered Chen Gu's eyes, and slowly he looked deeper into this Star Sea.

Milgray, arms crossed, said with a smirk, "Go on, force that guy out, we'll hunt from outside."

Chen Gu pursed his lips, though he still needed the Myriad Forms Heavenly Dragon to strengthen his Void Walker abilities. If the hunt succeeds, it might gain him an opportunity to advance to the Ninth Power Level.

"So, I must strive harder." Chen Gu silently encouraged himself, then carefully lifted his foot and stepped forward.

The general stood at the flagship's porthole, watching Chen Gu clearly take just a small step, and in the next moment, Chen Gu crossed a vast stretch of starlit distance to appear at the center of this void.

Chen Gu moved cautiously, step by step. In space, his movements seemed very slow, yet each step he took brought him to a highly improbable location.

He continuously appeared at completely unrelated points.

Even the Principal and Aviloya couldn't help but admire, "The abilities of a Void Walker are indeed extraordinary. We too can perceive the oddity of this space, but to analyze these chaotic spatial traps, each step would probably require hours of calculation..."

Milgray calmly said, "At your speed, the moment you take the second step, that fellow would awaken. Therefore, we need Chen Gu."

At this moment, Chen Gu took another step and suddenly vanished!

Milgray's expression grew tense, "He's inside!"

The sleeping place of the Myriad Forms Heavenly Dragon is hidden between two worlds behind layers of spatial traps.

Chen Gu entered a special location, a feeling once experienced at the Eighth Energy Level when viewing both Real World and Endless Realm returned.

In the endless darkness ahead of Chen Gu lies a massive entity, body curled into a slumbering ball, with strands of flesh tendrils drifting outwards, subtly vibrating, seemingly sensing the intruder, awakening that colossal being.

Chen Gu counted, "Only five dragon heads, significantly less compared to Gulati."
