Starting from the Planetary Governor

Chapter 1461: Chapter 830: Insect Beast War

The suggestions made by Sifleg’s subordinates have some merit.

But the Judge did not listen.

There are mainly two reasons:

First, this is just a conjecture. They have not implemented anything like this on a large scale before; it hasn’t been proven, and the hypothesis is based only on logical inference, which may not hold true. There is still the possibility of a fight to the death between both sides, where neither gains any advantage and then is wiped out in one go by the human forces when they catch a breath.

Second, the current situation is already too urgent. If not addressed immediately, the three or four star domains surrounding Omgeria will all have to face a massive onslaught of the Green Tide directly. With the Waaagh energy accumulated by the Green Skins at their present scale, it has reached an absurd level, and it can completely guide their massive fleet, acting as a beacon, for navigation between the stars.

When the Green Skin Orcs’ advantage in interstellar travel vastly outweighs that of humans affected by the Scarlet Scar, it becomes even more unstoppable.

To solve the current problem, bringing the Void Insect Species into the fold is an act of desperation.

Even if this thunderstorm truly grows larger and explodes in the future, it’s not something they can afford to worry about now.

When faced with immediate death, how can one worry about the future?

Under this guiding ideology, Sifleg’s actions were still executed.

In some respects, he was quite capable.

At least in the method of luring the Void Insect Species, he was successful.

A Tentacle Fleet of the Insect Nest did indeed arrive at Omgeria four years after he conducted infection dispersion on several planets.

And as bait, it wasn’t just the infected human worlds he created.

Humans can be infected by parasites, so can’t the Green Skins?

Actually, they can be.

Beastmen are typically asexual mushrooms, so it’s hard to imagine infectors among the Beastmen lasting more than two generations. Moreover, there is little privacy in Beastmen society; any mushroom that looks wrong is directly uprooted.

Penetrating the Beastman society is a universe-level challenge.

But still, infection can indeed occur.

The infected Beastmen parasites have six limbs, have purple skin, are extremely robust, and are extremely ugly. Although their rate of continued infection is significantly lower than the continuous infection among humans, they have different advantages—among humans, once a parasite is discovered, it is completely unacceptable by the whole race and must be dealt with. However, in Beastmen society, those infected Beastmen who grow strong often manage to make a name for themselves in the tribe due to their individual strength.

Fierce enough, strong enough, good at fighting, that’s Waaagh enough; Beastmen can accept that.

However, the only issue is true Beastmen, the more they fight, the more victories they achieve, the stronger and larger they become, which is a positive cycle. But although the infected Beastmen have greater innate quality, they don’t have such prowess in ’leveling up through fighting’. Their strength is basically fixed, without enhancement from the Waaagh Force Field.

This means these Beastmen parasites can exist in Beastman society but find it difficult to rise to high positions, and the low infection rate among Beastmen makes their situation smaller in scale.

But the problem is that these infected Beastmen are also parasites, and they can collude and act together with infected humans.

On the human side, Sifleg and his subordinates also observed this point. Although in the three-way battle, the humans are at an absolute disadvantage, they can still take some actions to try to create some ’opportunities’.

Plus, with their secret technique to ’accelerate’ the infection, they quickly made these worlds extremely attractive to the Insect Nest Fleet, indeed drawing the universe devourers over.

The meeting between the cancer of the universe and the universe devourer thus arrived.

In the past, researchers of the Human Empire had indeed observed wars between the Insect Race and other alien entities.

After all, the Void Insect Species are devourers; they eat everything, not just humans. When they encounter other aliens, they are bound to fight.

Including the Green Skin Orcs.

But it’s unclear whether it’s due to insufficient observational samples, or because events happening outside the territories of the Human Empire were unseen, or simply because they hadn’t encountered such a scenario before… In any case, none of the observed sample scales of confrontations between these two alien forces were larger than those seen at Omgeria.

In some past observation records, when they encountered each other, it often led to a bloody fight where neither side would yield, followed by one side quickly achieving victory and reaping the maximum gains.

But this was not the case at Omgeria.

After the swarm devoured the first few planets, it got a taste for it. They recognized that the Green Skin Orcs were quite a tasty meal.

Although not easy to fight, many foods in this universe are challenging to hunt, and the Beastmen were no exception either.

The taste may have been mediocre, but they made up for it with sheer volume and satiation.

Thus, the universe devourers fixed their gaze on the Green Skin Orc Empire and began advancing further within Omgeria.

How fortuitous is that? The Green Skin Orcs viewed the Void Insect Species the same way.
