Chen Gu also kept the matter of the bizarre and unpredictable divine statue to himself, not sharing it with them. However, Chen Gu did catch a flaw in Benjamin's words. Benjamin had previously stated that their trip to the temple ruins wasn't for confronting the insect swarm, rendering his "Star Battle Instructor" abilities inapplicable. Yet, he also mentioned the possibility of the queen being inside the ruins. Chen Gu knew that any queen would undoubtedly be protected by a large contingent of insects. This contradiction suggested Benjamin was withholding some secret from him.
The decision was made to set out immediately. Along the way, they safely avoided two insect swarms and activated "Complete Stealth" to evade a patrolling aerial swarm, quietly approaching the temple ruins, now over two hundred kilometers distant.
