After that, Huo Li and the mantis worm chatted for a while, hearing Xiaoyi in a fog, and then the tall zerg turned around and took the lead, and the surrounding zerg bowed to make way. The two followed the mantis insect along the gap between the large ferns more than half a meter high, and walked to a forest composed of dark green trees dozens of meters high in the distance.
And those Zerg watched a few people leave before they continued to work on the land. The tall mantis walked first, but the black-haired boy deliberately slowed down to maintain a distance of 10 meters behind, while watching the zerg sway rhythmically with the metallic luster. The cyan tail, while whispering to the system:
"2d14, do you have any Zerg languages in your local thesaurus?"
System 2d14 hurriedly replied: "Yes, the host is big... er, my lord."
Black-haired boy: "Help me play it now, I have to hurry up and study! Also, don't call me an adult."
System 2d14: "Okay, the host! But there are 27 different languages of the Zerg... Which one do you want to learn, the host?"
The black-haired boy took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "Learn whichever the Zerg said just now."
System 2d14 hesitated: "But, they seem to belong to different Zerg, and they all talk with each other?"
Black-haired boy: "Then put all 27 species! Eh? Why 27? Didn't the news on the starship say that there are 28 branches of Zerg?"
At this time, Huo Li also joined the conversation with consciousness: "Xiaoyi, in fact, there are only 27 branches of the Zerg, and each branch has a pair of insect kings and queens, plus my insect king... Exactly 28."
The black-haired boy asked back with consciousness: "Didn't you swear that you are on the human side and have nothing to do with the Zerg?"
Huo Li: "What I promised at the time was that there was no 'blood relationship' with the Zerg."
The black-haired boy resisted the urge to roll his eyes and followed them into the forest. At this time, because of the dense tree canopy, the sunny weather immediately became dark, as if a storm was about to come.
The black-haired boy responded succinctly and coldly with consciousness: "Don't argue, explain."
So as the group walked through the forest, Huo Li slowly told the story of the year with his consciousness: "700 years ago, there were not so many human colonized planets. Under the leadership of the entire Interstellar Alliance, all human beings are in a kind of Under the state of crazy expansion, almost all the habitable planets in the neighboring galaxies have been hastily developed and utilized by humans, and the population has been saturated until some exploration spacecraft discovered this vast Zerg field in the galaxy.
Different from the way that humans fill up all habitable planets, the Zerg only survive and multiply on the planets with the best natural conditions in the galaxy. . Therefore, although there are only tens of thousands of planets inhabited by the Zerg, the area of the star field occupied by it is almost comparable to that of the human star field at that time, and the ecological environment is far stronger than that of the human star field. So the Star Alliance started to attack the Zerg to occupy the land. "
The black-haired boy: "Then the failure of the human race caused the anger of the Zerg, and caused hundreds of human planets to be captured by the Zerg and reduced to the end of the world? At that time, in order to save the human world, you took the opportunity to sneak into the Zerg King City and controlled the Zerg King and the Zerg King. After all, turned the tide and stopped the Zerg's attack and saved all mankind?"
Huo Li hesitated for a while, but decided to tell the truth: "No. At the beginning of the attack, the human race won many battles, and when I was about to break through the Zerg's outer defense line and drive straight into the Zerg's hinterland, I sneaked in with the tacit approval of the main system. The Zerg King City has changed a little of the memory of the Bug King and the Bug Queen, making them think that I am the 28th Bug King."
Black-haired boy: "Then what?"
Huo Li: "I commanded the Zerg army to defeat the human attack."
Black-haired boy: "… "
Huo Li: "Xiao Yi, I really stand on the side of humans!"
Black-haired boy: "Oh!"
At this time, a modern manor that was incompatible with the surroundings appeared in front under the shadow of the trees, and the conversation came to an end temporarily. Several people bypassed a 50-meter-high shirt tree and walked into the gate of the manor, without the wall covering the black hair. The teenager saw at least dozens of Zerg in the manor working hard to clear the weeds on the blue-green lawn, trim the shrubs, and more exaggeratedly, there was a team of Zerg back and forth carrying large buckets to add water to the small fountain pond.
Seeing the arrival of Huo Li, the Zerg leading the work did not know what to say, and the other Zerg quickly accelerated their progress. By the time a few people came to the door of the villa, most of the Zerg working in the house had already finished their work. Quickly withdrew, only two or three Zerg clumsily carrying buckets with their forelimbs and wiping dust with rags were not finished. Seeing the arrival of 'Lord Insect King', these Zerg hurriedly tried their best to minimize their sense of existence, while quickly wiping the glass.
There is also a team of Zerg, led by the leader, carefully holding rows of colorful fruits and vegetables with their sharp forelimbs, and placed them in a row on the long huge white dining table. After the group of people filed out, the Zerg who led the way bowed deeply at the door, closed the door respectfully and stepped back.
Huo Li glanced at the Zerg who were still cleaning the glass, only to be so frightened that one of them accidentally cut the rag into two pieces with too much force, and then hurriedly picked up the half with his forelegs, and quickly Wipe on the glass.
Huo Li continued to explain carefully with his mental power: "Xiaoyi, you have to understand that if you let the Interstellar Alliance send heavy troops into the hinterland of the Zerg under the circumstances 700 years ago, it will definitely evolve into an extremely tragic and protracted battle. War! The reason why the Zerg retreated at that time was that humans only captured the territory of two of the Zerg branches, and the Zerg troops were 2/27 of their active strength. But if the human race continued to advance, it would cause the Zerg to fight back with all their strength. A full-scale war between two evenly matched races, the consequences..."
While listening to Huo Li's explanation in his mind, the black-haired boy casually walked to the long table and curiously touched the strange food brought by the Zerg: "So you kindly helped the Zerg resist the human attack, It also established a lot of prestige among the Zerg. But when the Zerg counterattacked humans and caused hundreds of apocalypse, you could directly order to stop the attack, but you didn't."
At this time, the three bugs finally finished cleaning the window in a frightened manner, picked up the small bucket and used it to quickly climb out of the villa.
Huo Li looked at the boy and hesitated for a while before nodding and admitting: "At that time, the power of the Interstellar Alliance was too huge, and the entire human race fell into a dangerous state of being forced to use military force. Therefore, the Interstellar Alliance must pay some for their boldness. Only at the price can the situation be reversed and humans cool down from their arrogance. For the Zerg, the planet they attack is their territory. The Zerg is just recovering the lost homeland. I have no reason to stop it. And the Zerg are egg-born creatures. Lifespan is very short, they don't care about their own life, just like ants, population and territory are what they care about."
The black-haired boy took a cup of spring water from the Zerg planet and took a sip before putting down the cup with a chuckle and said, "It's a grandiose statement. After you let yourself go, these 'small frictions' caused hundreds of apocalypse, the status of the Interstellar Alliance suddenly changed. Because of the needs of the last days, the Alliance of Salvation finally gained a firm foothold in the human galaxy. At that time, its prestige surpassed that of the Alliance for a time. And you, the savior who turned the tide, also had a momentary glory, which made people temporarily let go of their respect for you. Scared. This is two birds with one stone, do you know which bird you really care about in your heart?"
Huo Li, who was completely exposed, fell silent, and seemed to have fallen into the torture of his own heart.
The black-haired boy: "For your vicious tactic... I can only say: Well done! The Star Alliance should have been beaten long ago! It's a pity that I was not born at that time!"
Huo Li looked at the boy whose eyes sparkled with excitement, but he didn't react for a while.
Black-haired boy: "Why are you looking at me like that? I'm an alien, not one of those teenage girls who think they've killed innocent lives even after eating an egg... But when you're on a mission You have killed a lot of Zerg and Zerg King, don't they know you?"
Huo Li: "I only gave spiritual hints to the 27 pairs of insect kings and queens in Wangcheng, making them think that I am also a member of the Zerg. At present, only they and their guards know my specific form. Those on the frontier battlefield The Zerg and the low-level Zerg King do not know that the 28th Zerg King looks like a human... Besides, Zerg is an independent race, and they also have their own civilization. I don't want or control them." Huo Li looked around the villa, " I just wanted to give myself a way out."
The black-haired boy nodded: "The Zerg is indeed different from what I imagined. They are simple, industrious, and basically vegetarian. I thought... Forget it, it's too stupid to talk about it."
Huo Li: "The Zerg are all eating steel on the bare planet? Biting other weak animals?"
The black-haired boy: "Hehe." Then he pretended to be casual and said with a serious face: "Okay, don't worry about these little things, let's get to work! First of all, we have to find a way to separate parasitic beasts and humans on a large scale. Anyway, as long as I don't dissect them, I can't tell them apart."
Huo Li: "I can't control more than 1,200 planets one by one, and then turn over their memories one by one, because except for the moment when they broke out of their bodies, the memories of parasitic beasts are no different from those of humans. Control them It's easy to identify, it's too time consuming, and…”
Black-haired boy: "You are afraid that your true strength will be exposed, and you don't want to control and invade so many people."
Huo Li was a little surprised by the young man's understanding of him, and nodded silently.
Black-haired teenager: "Then there is only one way: viral infection! If there is a chronic virus that can cause parasites and humans to have two completely different symptom responses..."
Huo Li: "What about direct death?"
The black-haired boy: "The parasitic organization is dead, and then those half-human shells are left behind? No, I don't want to do good things silently this time. I want to find out those parasitic beasts and put them in a big place. Show all the humans in the universe in front of the screen!"
So the two transformed the back row house of the manor into a medium-sized biological laboratory with the hard work of the Zerg. Xiaoyi recovered dozens of humanoid parasitic beast samples according to the samples he collected on Happy Planet, and synthesized black silk. The virus was injected into them for observation. However, due to the study of chronic viruses, the changes of the experimental body are very slow. The black-haired boy who usually has nothing to do is led by the 'Insect King' Huo Li to tour the scenery of the Zerg King City planet.
Then after 2d14 persistently playing the Worm Language Thesaurus, the black-haired boy finally mastered 27 languages after two weeks. On this day, Huo Li was taking the black-haired boy under a cliff, watching the Zerg with small frames on their bodies collecting a kind of white berries on the cliff.
Huo Li: "Because the dozens of planets in the vicinity belong to the realm of the king city, the other 27 pairs of insect kings and queens have built their nests on these planets, and their subjects have simply formed indistinguishable distances because of their proximity. racial mixture."
The black-haired boy was very curious to see the bugs crawling up and down the cliff: "Did they make those little baskets by themselves?"
Huo Li: "I handed it over to them, so even though 700 years have passed since the battle, my status as the 28th insect king is still the first of all kings."
The black-haired young man smiled: "To seek power by weaving baskets is really domineering!"
Huo Li blushed slightly: "Not all, I originally wanted to teach them more advanced farming techniques, but I was afraid that this would cause their population to skyrocket and threaten human beings, and I was also afraid to destroy what they originally possessed. A good natural environment does not teach.”
At this time, a Zerg picked up a small basket of white berries, flapped its wings and flew down. While passing by Huo Li, it did not forget to stop and bow in Zerg language: "Hello, my esteemed king."
Then turned to the black-haired boy: "Hello, my esteemed queen."
Then it re-opened its wings and flew away.
Black-haired boy: "!!!"
The black-haired boy looked at Huo Li with a puzzled look: "What did it just say to me?"
Huo Li didn't change his face: "It just said: Hello, dear guest."
The black-haired boy was also calm: "Oh." Ahhh! I was swollen by a second implicit confession by a human being 1000 times bigger than me. What should I do? Online wait, urgent!
After a while, the black-haired boy decided to skip this little question: "Tomorrow I'm going to go to the border of the wormland alone, which is the end-of-the-world planet of mankind. We are almost isolated from the world here. How is the game between the Covenant and the main system? I don't know at all. I'm going there to find the missionaries who are saving the world and get news from them."
Huo Li said quickly, "I'm with you."
The black-haired boy held his forehead: "I am now a law-abiding citizen zz2d14, what are you doing with a wanted criminal. Besides, who will take care of those experimental subjects after you leave?"
Huo Li: "Law-abiding citizen? The three most wanted criminals now: Alien, 0193, 099, two of them are you! And you will not change your memory, if I am not by your side, it will be irreversible if exposed! As for Experiment, you can use black silk to synthesize an experimenter and I can control it remotely."
So, 2 days later, the black-haired boy who wanted to find an excuse to go out alone had no choice but to drive a small starship with Huo Li to the sky above a gray planet that looked like it had been grilled by charcoal.
The black-haired boy looked down at the dark planet through the glass window of the starship: "Is it right here? It doesn't look normal."
Huo Li nodded in agreement, and controlled the starship to land on the square of a city. The two stepped out of the hatch and put away the starship. The black-haired boy turned his head and looked around. All the high-rise buildings in this city were left with broken walls. The pervasive black mist condensed into a thick layer of black clouds that pressed down extremely low, making the whole world look like a rainstorm. Come evening, filled with the breath of death and depression.
"Can you feel the humans around you?" the black-haired boy turned his head and asked.
"Within 10 kilometers, there is no one." Huo Li replied, his face not looking very good, "But there are other life forms moving, not Zerg. How many teleportation talismans do you have left, Xiaoyi?"
"40 sheets."
"Let's learn about the world along the way first, and the teleportation talisman should be saved." Huo Li said, taking the lead to walk towards the dark road between the tall buildings.
The black-haired boy followed behind him, and because he didn't understand the basic situation of the world, he didn't dare to let the black silk extend easily. The streets were covered with a thick layer of dust, and the two of them stepped on and made a crunching sound, echoing in the silent dead city. The black-haired boy seemed to hear some noise from the office building on the right. He slowed down and looked into the shadowy building through the filthy and translucent floor-to-ceiling windows. But Huo Li, who was in front of him, suddenly stopped, and bowed his waist in pain.
The black-haired boy hurriedly walked two steps to his side: "What's the matter!"
Huo Li wanted to speak, but as soon as he uttered the first syllable, he was choked by something. After coughing twice, he spat out a large mouthful of blood! However, his coughing did not stop, and instead made a continuous coughing sound of blood blocking his trachea...
