Although Zi Ling wanted to return to Lassel right away, she had already received the Federation's systematic education and knew what the time contraction effect was. She also knew that her grandfather was no longer in this world.
In addition, the Federation was now pouring a lot of resources into her so that she could break through to Lin Yu's level as soon as possible. As a sensible and responsible girl, she knew very well that she could not be picky at this time.
At this moment, she only had one thought in her mind, and that was to work harder, harder than anyone else, to be promoted to an S-Class dark energy manipulator of the Federation as soon as possible.
At that time, not to mention going back to take a look, even if he wanted to bring the Tarlac Clan out of the small universe, he believed that there would be no problem at all for the Federation to arrange a star field or even a galaxy as their home.
After all, the value of an S-Class dark energy manipulator was worth it to the Federation, let alone a galaxy. Even if it was a galaxy group or a galaxy cluster.
Soon, after ending the communication with Lin Fan, Zi Ling immediately ended her short period of leisure and devoted herself to her studies again.

At the same time.
Wills Special Supercluster, in the center of the Boötes Constellation hole, in the Bug Race's small universe.
In fact, the Bug Race's small universe was not very big. It was only about the size of a galaxy group. The size of the galaxies and stars in it was similar to the local galaxy group where the Milky Way was located.
Of course, this small was compared to the Wills Special Supercluster outside. However, for the civilizations that had taken root in it, it was not small.
Because most of the civilizations were very primitive and could not even step out of their mother planet, in the small universe, except for the star sectors that the Bug Race had occupied and used as breeding bases, 99% of the star sectors and planets were actually in an ownerless state.
These primitive civilizations had no resistance to the Bug Race's harvesting operation this time. In just over a year, more than 90% of the civilizations had been slaughtered by the Bug Race and all of them had become nourishment for the Bug Race's war insects.
On this day, a group of Bug Race's harvesting insects came to Lassel. This was the huge planet where Lin Yu had stayed for several years. However …
If Lin Yu and Zi Ling were to come to this planet, they would definitely not recognize it. The changes were too great.
This … How is this still a primitive civilization?
Looking at the sci-fi cities on the planet's surface, and then at the planet's orbit, the battleships armed to the teeth, and the densely packed space defense network in the distance.
No matter how he looked at it, he could no longer associate it with the primitive tribal civilization of the Tarlac Clan from more than three years ago.
On the surface of the planet, in a secret military base.
"Commander, the Insectoids are approaching. They are a standard swarm, and there are about 10 million of them!"
"How's the preparation of the fleet?"
"Reporting to the commander, the first to seventh main fleets and the planet's garrison fleets have all assembled in orbit. All space defense networks have been activated!"
"Yes, we can only win this battle. We must protect the sacred planet that the Saintess was born on!"
"Yes, Commander!"
The atmosphere in the command center was solemn. A war was about to break out!
When Lin Yu left with Zi Ling, he left behind a technology tree knowledge base with artificial intelligence for the Tarlac Clan. It contained all the technological knowledge of Tier 1 to Tier 3 technological civilizations. This allowed the Tarlac Clan to become a Tier 3 civilization in just 1,000 years after Lin Yu's departure!
After the Tarlac Civilization learned and mastered all the technology in the knowledge base, they did not stop there.
Although the entire civilization was at a loss for a period of time, it finally walked out after 500 years and began the path of self-development.
Needless to say, the Tarlac Civilization was quite talented in scientific research. In the following 3,000 years, they relied on themselves to break through to become a Tier 4 technological civilization. Now, they were very close to becoming a Tier 5 technological civilization.
Of course, there was a reason why the Tarlac Civilization stayed on their mother planet even though they were close to becoming a Tier 5 civilization.
This reason was the artificial intelligence left behind by Lin Fan.
After the Tarlac Civilization became a Tier 3 civilization, the artificial intelligence told the Tarlac Civilization about the existence of the Zerg according to Lin Yu's initial settings, as well as the truth of the small universe they were in.
After receiving this information, the Tarlac Civilization resolutely decided not to expose themselves to the Zerg. Apart from secretly going out to collect resources, they would not carry out any colonization operations on other planets.
In short, there was only one thing to say — hide!
They would hide until the Saintess returned and led the race out of the Zerg's small universe.
However, Man proposes, God disposes. After thousands of years of hiding, there was no problem. Now, an unexpected disaster came flying.
For some reason, the Zerg began to attack all the civilizations in the small universe.
Although the Tarlac Civilization did not colonize other planets, for the safety and secrecy of the resource collection ships, they had deployed countless surveillance devices throughout the entire star field. As long as the Zerg were discovered, all spaceships and battleships would be notified in advance to hide.
Therefore, they were very familiar with the movements of the insectoids in the past year. They had already discovered this insectoid swarm a few years ago, and they had been sweeping towards Lasseer. During this period, dozens of civilizations had been destroyed by them.
However, it was also because of this one year's time that the Tarlac Civilization was able to fully prepare for defense.
A civilization that hadn't even reached Tier 5 was definitely no match for the Zerg. But after all, the Zerg didn't have many garrisons in the small universe, and more importantly, the Zerg garrisons here didn't know about the current situation of the Tarak civilization. They were still here to harvest the strength of a primitive civilization.
This … gave the Tarlac Civilization a ray of hope!
"Commander, the composition of the Zerg swarm has been scanned clearly. There is one Tier 5 creature, one million Tier 4 creatures, and nine million Tier 3 creatures! They will enter the range of the space defense network in one minute! "
"Hmm … How about this? Immediately shut down all the space defense network and let the Zerg swarm in!"
"Yes, Commander!"
After receiving the order, the adjutant immediately went to prepare.
In fact, as the commander, Zi Luo, it was not that she did not want to use the space defense network to weaken the enemy's strength. However, she knew better than anyone else how strong the defense network was. It might be able to bring some trouble to the Zerg swarm, but the losses would definitely not be small!
Therefore, she directly let the Zerg swarm in and let the fleet fight them head-on. At the same time, she activated the space defense network and attacked the Zerg swarm from behind, forming a pincer attack.
This was the only way the Tarlac Civilization could win with the least amount of losses …
This was the victory of this war!
