Judging by the current situation, it's highly possible that Waluk's research has already succeeded.
With that as a premise, it explains the questions Gu Hang had been pondering earlier.
The North Line is blocked by the Insect Swarm, the West Line faces the extraordinary 'Mortal' units, and the Southern Line has encountered enslaved Neuron Progeny...
And why Humphrey Paolo is going all out against the Magrey Cosmic Domain.
From a logical standpoint, it would indeed be difficult for him to quickly convert Magrey's productivity and population into war potential. But if we consider the possibility that he can command an Insect Swarm, it's a completely different story: unleash the swarm, let them feast on a massive scale, and the resulting swarm would be unimaginably strong.
Gu Hang couldn't even dare to think about it!
