Chapter 430: New Skill
Seeing Luo Wen open his eyes, Sarah Kerrigan, who had been waiting patiently, quickly asked, “Overlord, was the plan successful?”
Luo Wen didn’t answer immediately. He frowned, shook his head, and fell into deep thought. Sarah knew this was not the time to disturb her Overlord, so she quietly stood guard by his side.
Suddenly, Luo Wen raised his eyebrows and said, “The plan failed. The time window for the tunnel was too short, and the seed didn’t manage to enter. However, the good news is that my earlier theoretical hypothesis was correct. This plan is entirely feasible, and we still have another chance.”
“When should we begin?” Sarah asked.
“Make arrangements now,” Luo Wen replied. “Dragging it out any longer may lead to unforeseen complications. In the meantime, until the Megastructure reaches the designated position, do not disturb me. I need time to think.”
“As you command, Overlord,” Sarah said.
This galaxy houses a supremely powerful force, one whose strength surpasses the Swarm by an immeasurable margin. While the Swarm holds immense potential, it needs time to fully grow, and Luo Wen was uncertain whether time was on their side. Could the Swarm possibly match such a formidable opponent?
For now, if a conflict were to break out with the Interstellar Technological Confederation or the New Ji Race, there was no chance of victory. Moreover, losing such a war would mean even escape would be a luxury. The Swarm’s sublight speed lagged behind that of the New Ji Race. Even if the gap were small, they would eventually be overtaken.
With Luo Wen’s meticulous personality, such a situation was intolerable. Even back when he was a bug the size of a fingernail, digging a nest required him to create seven or eight escape tunnels. Now, having grown immeasurably stronger, he was no less cautious. Overconfidence without an exit strategy was never his way.
