These are two completely different concepts.
It's the first time Xue Dili has heard that the Insect Race actually got bombarded to death by outnumbered forces, simply unheard of.
"However, a big problem arose afterward. Including the colonies, there are a total of 1.8 billion Fearless Mechas with self-awareness in the Empire, leading to many of them facing scrapping after the war ended."
"Wait... wait a minute... how many? 1.8 billion?" Xue Dili asked.
"Yes, 1.8 billion, including 400 million on the home planet, 800 million on Colonization Star 1, and 600 million on Colonization Star 2," the Fearless Mecha explained in more detail.
Xue Dili: "..."
1.8 billion Mechas, it seems the Insect Race was really drowned by the Mechas...
At the same time, Xue Dili also lamented that the Empire's few planets were really quite bountiful, unlike Earth where Xue Dili felt it couldn't produce so many resources.
