【I want to give grace to Ling. 】
The voice of the female insect was transmitted to every Zerg.
A hurricane hit in the distance, pushing up the lead-colored clouds, quickly obscuring the warm sunlight, and the whole world was plunged into darkness.
"Boom", the electric light exploded in the dark cloud, and the ground trembled slightly.
It was as if the dark clouds in the sky suddenly collapsed, and the pouring rain fell suddenly, as if a huge waterfall fell from the sky to the ground.
The water drops hit the ground, splashing a misty mist, almost turning the world into a dim watercolor painting.
The arena is very cleverly designed, and each auditorium has enough to cover the rain damper.
Lu Mo looked at the continuous rain curtain and said, "This is really a heavy rain."
The Insect King said meaningfully: "Summer is always like this, with scorching sun and strong winds, torrential rain and thunder, in this season, it is not surprising that anything happens."
You can think of it, you can't think of it, it will happen.
It's like, you're doomed to die this summer - devoured by female worms.
The thread of the Insect Emperor's spiritual power quietly loosened, the angry look on his face disappeared, and he returned to his former graceful bearing.
"You are right."
Although it was covered, the rain was so fierce that the splashing water mist quickly dazzled Lu Mo's trousers, and even the hem of the windbreaker got wet. Lu Mo smiled and whispered: "Especially this summer, a lot has happened..."
When he met Ling, it happened to be the first day of summer.
It's been three months now.
Before that, he had spent three years in this world. But the memory of the past three years has been so lacking and dull that Lu Mo can hardly remember what happened to him before.
On the contrary, this summer has been so thrilling, so... wonderful.
- Of course, it cannot be ruled out that he has been too exhausted in the past three months.
Anyone who, in three months, between getting rich overnight and going bankrupt on the spot, repeats back and forth, I believe he will have a deep memory.
However, from now on, there will be no such troubles anymore.
Because he has given up being a man!
Looking at the heavy rain, Lu Mo said with emotion, "The last rain in summer was so aggressive."
"… "
The speaker has no intention, and the listener has a heart. This sentence has another meaning when heard by the Insect Emperor.
He glanced at Lu Mo suspiciously, but he couldn't see anything on that stern face.
Is it a test
Or has it been determined that something will happen next
No, not possible, no one could have foreseen this step.
But at the same time, another voice echoed in the insect king's mind—
But he advanced to become an S-rank male, is it really that simple
Just thinking of this, the inability to quell jealousy and anger kept reverberating in the insect king's chest, like a fire that could never stop.
Lu Mo, must die!
If Lu Mo doesn't die, Ling will never collapse; if Lu Mo dies, Ling will also die together - no matter what, he will never be able to advance to an S-rank male in this life.
Then, he would never allow a male to climb higher than himself!
Thinking of this, the Insect Emperor softened his face and said kindly to Lu Mo: "In such a heavy rain, it's really not suitable for conversation. Since the honorable female insect has chosen your queen, then before the female insect meets Ling, please invite the two of you to be there with him. Stay in the palace? Otherwise..."
The Insect King gestured to the audience with his eyes. Even if the rain was so heavy, none of the Zerg left the arena. All of their attention was on Lu Mo. Insect King said: "Otherwise, you will be overwhelmed by the enthusiasm of the people."
Lu Mo: "..."
Which pot is not opened to mention which pot.
He already understands it very well. Don't remind him of this tragic fact, okay
Lu Mo felt even more sad when he thought that he had sworn to the system that he would be promoted to SS level.
He looked at the Insect Emperor coldly, gritted his teeth and said, "Thank you for your kindness, it's better to be respectful than to obey."
The two of them looked at each other and gave a professional smirk together.
Although the reasons are very different, they are exactly the same if they want to rip off each other's hearts.
——
Lu Mo stayed in the palace.
This news is no secret. Every year, the female worm and his male lord selected by the female worm will live in the palace and receive the strictest protection.
Moore naturally knew that too.
He stood anxiously outside the door, sighing constantly.
Too fast, everything happened too fast. So fast that he didn't even react, Lu Mo became an S-rank male overnight, and his female monarch was also selected by the female.
If this continues, it is foreseeable that Lu Mo will soon be targeted by the Insect Emperor, and then, just like before, Lu Mo will join the Insect Emperor camp...
Su Lin's face appeared in Moore's mind, which made him sigh again.
At least, Lu Mo cannot be allowed to join the Insect Emperor's command, so he must take some risks...
At this moment, the door in front of him opened, and Mole quickly stood up: "Excuse me—"
The female worm opened the door and glanced at him, then turned sideways to move out of the way: "Your Excellency Lu agreed to your request, you can go in and see him now."
Moore was beaming with joy: "Excuse me!"
Under the guidance of the guards, Moore walked through the twists and turns of the corridor, passed one checkpoint after another, and walked for two hours before arriving in front of Lu Mo's room.
He took a deep breath and slowly opened the door.
The room was decorated with splendid gold and blue, and the black-haired male worm stood in front of the window, turned around after hearing the sound, and Moir's figure was reflected in those green eyes.
"Mr. Moore, I heard you were looking for me?"
Moore closed the door, his heart beating so fast that he never thought he would do such a risky thing.
Once the prediction is wrong, he will surely die.
But some things had to be done. From the day he joined the alliance, he had put his life and death aside.
"Yes… "
Moore took a deep breath, finally raised his head and looked into Lu Mo's eyes.
"Mr. Lu Mo, you probably know... the rebel army?"
Lu Mo raised his eyebrows: "Probably know something."
In the information provided by the system, he had glimpsed it once. However, according to the system, this world was originally just a book, and most of the pages were devoted to describing what happened between Song Jianshu and his female insects. Most of the information about the rebel army was just a brushstroke, and the information was really incomplete.
"You are too modest." Moore showed a nervous smile, "You already know that I belong to the rebel army."
"You already guessed everything when you returned that map to me, right?"
Lu Mo: "..."
He sat down hesitantly in the chair.
map
what map
But his behavior, in Moore's eyes, seems to have expected everything, and this gesture is waiting for himself to tell everything.
"Actually, it's like this..."
After a full half an hour, Moore explained everything clearly.
In fact, the Zerg was not the beginning, it is now. Although the number of males has been decreasing, the females are obliged to protect the females and have no other obligations.
They can refuse the unreasonable demands of the males, and have the most basic rights - at least after they marry the males, the males cannot ask them to give up their jobs and turn over all their property.
Males are given preferential treatment, but they also need to work, and harming females is punished.
Although it sounds like a fantasy today, it did exist.
Until now His Majesty the Insect Emperor came to power, everything has changed.
He promulgated a series of laws, slowly turning the Zerg into what it is today, and it has been hundreds of years.
The Zerg who are still alive are basically born since then. They are used to the status quo and don't even know this history.
"So, your goal is to... overthrow the Insect Emperor?"
"That's it!" Mo'er's eyes shone brightly, and he looked at Lu Mo and said, "I believe that you must agree with us!"
"… "
The black-haired, green-eyed male frowned and sat down on the chair.
He crossed his arms around his chest and tapped his index finger on his arms, lost in thought.
Moore pursed his lips and clasped his hands together nervously. He believed that Your Excellency Lu Mo could feel his sincerity, and if he said these words, he could be arrested and executed immediately.
Negotiation skills, ways to win people's hearts, and clever tongue skills, Moore is useless.
He really hoped that Lu Mo could join the alliance, so he was unwilling to mix any means in this conversation.
Knowing that he was risking his own life, Moore insisted on doing it.
He has done everything he can, and now he can only wait for Lu Mo's decision.
The time has become so long, and every second is a torment, and Moore's heart gradually sank.
When he was already tearfully saying goodbye to his dear male father in his heart, Lu Mo finally spoke.
The black-haired and green-eyed male looked at Moore quietly: "Please allow me to refuse."
Moore almost burst into tears on the spot.
He stammered, "Of course, of course, I know it's abrupt for you, and I'm not confident enough to convince you..."
Halfway through he said, he couldn't go on any more, he lowered his head in dejection, his face pale.
It's like waiting for the death row to be executed.
Lu Mo: "...do you have anything else to do?"
Moore raised his head dazedly: "Aren't you going to catch me?"
Lu Mo looked at Mo Er faintly: "If you want—"
Moer blinked and said uncertainly, "If you arrest me, will you be appreciated by His Majesty the Insect King?"
Lu Mo's face turned green at that time.
He waved his hand resolutely: "No, that's fine, please don't do this."
He would rather put on his boots and kick His Majesty the Insect King's ass and butt violently than be appreciated.
Poor, cheap, no, able, move!
"Of course, you'd better be more careful next time." Lu Mo sighed, "I've never seen such a lame diplomat as you, your rebel army is really problematic."
Moore's face was slightly red, but he was still a little unsure, and said in a panic: "So, are you planning to..."
"I didn't plan on that, thank you."
Lu Mo looked at Moore sincerely: "You are here today just to please an S-rank male and let him take care of you. It's better to ask for advanced methods, isn't it?"
Moer stared blankly at Lu Mo, his eyes that were originally darkened, then lit up again.
The meaning of this sentence couldn't be more obvious - Your Excellency Lu Mo, he neither intends to join the alliance, nor does he intend to join the Insect Emperor!
Anyway, this is pretty good news! It can even be said that Lu Mo can withstand the pressure of the insect emperor and insist on neutrality, which is already helping them!
"Thank you!"
Moore stood up and kept bowing: "I see what you mean!"
"Now that you understand, please go back."
"Yes!"
—
After sending Mo Er away, Lu Mo sat paralyzed on the chair, completely out of shape.
Although he didn't understand it, he was shocked.
He asked the system weakly: [System, was our previous contact so serious... ]
The system's voice is more trance than him: [This is obviously a vacation copy... ]
Lu Mo was silent for a while and said: [I thought everything was under your control, otherwise why would you always urge me to upgrade? 】
The system innocently said: [That is my professional habit. 】
Lu Mo: [… ]
system:【… 】
Finally, the system broke the embarrassing silence with difficulty and said: [Or else, I will change the task of assassinating the female insect to assassinating the king of insects? 】
【Are you joking? ! ! 】
【嘤QAQ】
Lu Mo stretched out his arm and blocked his eyes.
【System. 】
System: [Huh? 】
[I was almost scared to death just now. 】
【Why duck? 】
The corners of Lu Mo's mouth moved, as if he wanted to rise, but he finally gave up. He sighed: [System, I was born in a very peaceful country. 】
But this peace did not come out of thin air.
In order to create that peace, I don't know how many ancestors sacrificed their lives, just so that an ordinary person like him doesn't have to worry about whether he can live tomorrow, take off his shoes tonight, and whether he can wear them tomorrow.
However, when those ancestors sacrificed, they did not know what the final result would be.
Lu Mo said softly: "This is not an anime, and I am not a protagonist. As long as love and courage, I will succeed."
It will kill people.
Lu Mo knew that he was just a very ordinary person. He didn't have any great talents, and he couldn't devise strategies thousands of miles away.
He couldn't—perhaps should say he didn't dare, he didn't dare to carry so many people's hopes and lead them forward.
What if I go the wrong way
The system stammered, but could not find words to comfort Lu Mo.
It has brought protagonists before, all of them are decisive types, and the system only needs to assist from the side.
Lu Mo has never been this... soft and sticky type, the system is scratching its head anxiously - if it has a body.
In the end, it can only say: [There must be a way. 】
Lu Mo didn't speak.
Only now did he realize that everything was fake and that he had lied to everyone.
And he even wanted to stay here forever.
——
When Ling came back, he saw such a scene.
Lu Mo lay upright on the bed, staring at the ceiling blankly, with "Mourning" written in his left eye and "Bad" written in his right eye.
He walked over, knelt on the bed on one knee, looked down at Lu Mo and said, "Ah, what's wrong with you, my dear hero?"
Lu Mo turned his head in annoyance: "You don't understand."
He actually disappeared even that pretentious tone!
Ling was greatly shocked.
He raised his eyebrows, took Lu Mo in his arms, and the two rolled around on the bed.
Ling pressed his chin on Lu Mo's shoulder, and Lu Mo reached out and pushed him: "You are so annoying."
But his strength is very small, just like coquettish.
There is nothing that Lu Mo can do about Ling Na. Rather, he has never been able to take Lu Mo.
The next moment, Ling grabbed the quilt and wrapped himself and Lu Mo inside, wrapping them so tightly that it was difficult for them to even breathe.
Ling raised his head, pressed Lu Mo's cheek, and said, "Hmph, you think I'm annoying."
Lu Mo said angrily, "I'm thinking about business! You keep interrupting my train of thought!"
Ling Bulu said: "Your most serious business, isn't it..."
"Go, me, what?"
Lu Mo's whole body stiffened: "You, you, you—"
"Yes, yes, yes," Ling said, "I have no sense of shame. I am lewd, slutty, sleazy, and cheap.
Lu Mo: "..."
He is so angry.
He was struggling in Ling's arms, trying to stay away from this unruly female, but sadly, even if he became an S-rank male now, his strength was simply no match for Ling.
Ling smiled proudly.
Lu Mo bit Ling's ear angrily, but heard Ling's groaning.
"and many more!"
His voice was trembling, with a rustling sound of water vapor.
Lu Mo was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered with hindsight that Ling never seemed to let him touch his ears.
He subconsciously rubbed his canine teeth again, and Ling shook his body and let go of his hands weakly. Taking this opportunity, Lu Mo suddenly lifted the quilt.
It was dark outside, the rainstorm continued, and the light in the room was very dim. But Lu Mo could see Ling's face clearly.
Ling's pupils were dilated, and her ears were so red that they almost dripped blood. He was curled up, his hands tightly covering his mouth.
Lu Mo stared blankly at Ling, Ling gasped for breath, and said with a trembling voice, "You, who are you... What's the matter?"
There was a familiar light in those beautiful red eyes.
In the past, Lu Mo didn't realize what it was, but recently he gradually came to know it.
When Ling pulled him back from the passage, Lu Mo knew it completely.
Ling, I love myself deeply.
"I… "
If according to Lu Mo's usual habits, he would definitely choose to gag, pretend to be arrogant, and make countless unreasonable demands on Ling.
To Ling like this, and then like this.
But at this moment, he suddenly didn't want to do it anymore.
It was the first time someone looked at him like this, as if... it would tolerate all his bad emotions.
Can you tell
"I… "
Lu Mo lowered his head and said softly, "I lied to you, but I can't tell you the truth."
"I lied to everyone, but I can't do anything."
He spoke in bits and pieces that no one could understand, but he didn't expect Ling to understand, he was just mumbling to himself.
"Ling, am I being scumbag?"
Ah, of course this is true, he has become an S-rank male!
Ling sighed.
"It's okay, Lu Mo." He grabbed Lu Mo's hand, held it firmly in his palm, and repeated, "It's okay."
Lu Mo lowered his head and was extremely frustrated. He looked like he was the soft male before he transformed.
Ling held Lu Mo's cheek with the other hand, turned him towards him, and said, "I don't mind."
"It doesn't matter if it's fake, it doesn't matter if you lie to me, I don't mind at all."
Lu Mo looked at him blankly: "But—"
Ling looked at Lu Mo with dazzling eyes.
"If you lied to me, then continue to lie until we all return to the arms of the insect god."
"No matter what you are, I love you."
Lu Mo pressed his heart with his hand, and his voice was hoarse: "But I can't do anything..."
Ling laughed in a low voice, the laughter was like the sound of a mellow violin, he took Lu Mo's other hand and pressed it on his chest.
"Who said that? Didn't you do it?"
"You saved me."
"As for the rest," Ling leaned closer to Lu Mo and whispered, "Lu Mo, I'm really good."
"As long as you want to do it, I can do it for you."
Lu Mo lowered his head, a drop of water dripped onto the placket of his shirt, and his hands trembled slightly against Ling's chest.
It was nice to choose to stay at the time.
——
Outside the window, the wind and torrential rain continued one after another, and the rain curtain continued to pour into the sky, as if the whole world was raining the same rain.
The lights flickered inside, and the room was fragrant.
After one night, the wind and waves finally subsided.
Lu Mo heard a bird chirping, he opened his eyes hazy, only to see a bird watching him against the window, and then flew away.
The last rain of summer stopped.
Summer is finally over. :,,.
