Chapter 41: The Broken Insect Eggs Theodore said solemnly: "It is indeed punishable. ...

Theodore said in a deep voice: "Indeed, he deserves to be punished."

The female servant knelt on the ground, her heart sinking.

At that moment, the female servant's computer started to ring. The insect name it called sounded particularly familiar. The female servant quickly said, "Master, it's Bidi."

Theodore waved his hands irritably. "He's just a crazy bug. I'm a male bug. Cut off all contact with him. Don't let him appear before me again!"

Theodore felt a little regretful. If he had known, he would not have provoked Biddy. Not only did he not get the collection he wanted, but he also got stuck with a tactless crazy bug. He didn't know if this bug would ever stop.

Theodore narrowed his eyes. If the other party was restless, don't blame him for ignoring that little bit of kindness.

The communication was disconnected, the optical computer blocked the call, and Bidi did not bother him again.

Before leaving, Theodore learned from the female servant that Biddy had been imprisoned in the medical room and was being watched day and night by the bugs from the Enamel Military Academy. Before Sir Theodore left, he would never be allowed to offend Sir again.

After receiving such a reply, Theodore felt much more relaxed: "Enamel Military Academy, you still have some sense."

The female servant beside heard this and originally wanted to give the Enamel Military Academy a poor grade in the review score. However, after hearing the voice of the male master, she changed her mind and gave it a good grade.

In the medical room.

Biddy lay on the hospital bed and looked at Parker and asked, "How is it?"

Parker made an "OK" gesture, and Biddy put aside his worries and collapsed on the bed.

Parker quickly grabbed the other person and said, "Don't lie down, there's medicine behind you!"

Biddy glanced at the foul-smelling potion smeared all over the place behind him, his face grim. "It's these insect wings that are causing all this trouble. It's better if they can't be cured."

Parker patted him on the shoulder and said earnestly, "Why be so pessimistic? Our boss said that insect life isn't perfect. With opportunities comes difficulties. The future is long, and we can't let temporary difficulties bring us down."

This consolation did have some effect. Biddy took a deep breath and nodded seriously: "Your boss is right. He is a very powerful bug. Thanks to his strategy, I escaped."

Bidi touched the insect wings behind him, feeling that it was a part of his body. This was his insect wings, something that belonged to him alone, and he wanted to heal it!

…

When Parker returned to the dormitory, it was time to rest. The sky outside was full of stars, but the room was as bright as day.

Parker saw his roommates sitting in the living room and looked surprised: "Are you all asleep?"

Lin Xi raised his chin: "I'm just waiting for your news."

Sander stood up, a little anxious: "What happened?"

Parker patted his chest and said, "Don't you trust me to do the job? I can do three things at once. Of course it works."

Sander blinked. "But the boss always came up with the ideas."

Parker: “…”

This good brother of his really... knows how to tell the truth.

"Well, it was indeed a brilliant plan, Boss," Parker continued. "At two o'clock in the afternoon, Sir Theodore's spaceship left the planet. Biddy is now completely safe."

"He ran really fast. It's a good thing for him." Lin Xi said lazily while curled up in the sofa.

Parker twitched his lips. What the boss said, does it mean that he is going to cause trouble for Mr. Male Insect and put Mr. Theodore in a sack and beat him up to vent his anger?

Muas raised his hand and patted Lin Xi on the back of the head: "Stop making trouble, be careful of your mouth."

Lin Xi received a lesson, but instead of getting angry, she turned around and smiled at Muas: "My dear, you care about me so much, I'm really flattered!"

Parker quickly shook his body. The boss really... didn't know what restraint was.

Muas ignored him. Lin Xi looked at Parker again: "Why are you shaking? Do you have Parkinson's?"

Parker wanted to roll his eyes, but luckily he held it back: "Nothing, just some good news. I just remembered it and I'm a little excited."

Lin Xi was a little curious: "What good news?"

Parker said, "It's Biddy. He had a physical examination today and was found to have worm eggs. It's been over three months."

"Insect eggs?" Lin Xi stood up immediately. "How old is he to have insect eggs?"

Parker was puzzled: "It has nothing to do with age. He's already an adult anyway. He's young now, so it's the best time to conceive."

Parker was a little envious. "Bidi has such a good body! Some female insects may not be able to conceive even after being married to male insects for several years or even more than ten years. But he got pregnant in just a short time. He's so lucky!"

Lin Xi glanced at him and said, "Are you envious? Looking for a male insect to have a romantic encounter?"

Parker shook his head. "Forget it. Sir Male Insect can only watch from afar. If you want a larva, I'll apply for one at the Gamete Institute after I've gained military merit."

Gamete Institute, Lin Xi knew about this institution, but Lin Xi was a little curious about how they obtained the male insects' permission to obtain their gametes.

Lin Xi lazily lay back down, but just as he lay down, he immediately jumped up again: "Bidi is pregnant with insect eggs. Will the poisonous plant affect the eggs?"

None of the bugs expected Lin Xi's focus to be here, and they were a little stunned.

Lin Xi touched his face and asked inexplicably: "Did I say something strange?"

Parker reacted and shook his head, saying, "Female insects are tough and thick-skinned. We really didn't consider that much."

Lin Xi said: "Now I know, I can check it out."

Parker waved his hand and said, "Don't bother with that. If something was going to happen, it would have happened long ago. The eggs in the gestational sac are almost fully developed, and the baby will be born in a month and a half. There will definitely be no problem."

Seeing Lin Xi frowning, Parker added, "Don't worry too much, Boss. Insect eggs are very durable. There are many examples of female soldiers giving birth to insect eggs on the battlefield, and nothing went wrong. It's just a little corrosive venom, nothing will happen."

Lin Xi was a little shocked when he heard this.

The female Zerg were incredibly rough! Even a woman's ten-month pregnancy, half her life on the brink of death, the most difficult moments of life and death, couldn't faze them. So, what else could possibly trouble a female Zerg?

Lin Xi shook his head secretly. The female insects were too pitiful. They worked hard all their lives, and even when they were pregnant with insect eggs, they still had to go to the battlefield. They had no chance of enjoying life.

Parker said, "Boss, don't worry about these trivial issues. The problem is Biddy's insect eggs..."

Lin Xi raised his head: "What happened to the insect eggs?"

Muas suddenly asked, "Are there any signs of premature birth?"

Parker nodded somewhat heavily.

Lin Xi frowned: "How could this happen?"

Could it be that that scumbag Theodore also committed domestic violence against Biddy?

Muyas explained: "During the gestation process, the insect eggs need the company of the male father and the irrigation of insect essence."

"Insect essence...irrigation?" Lin Xi opened his eyes wide. This word was really simple and crude.

Muas nodded. "Irrigation will allow the eggs to grow stronger and improve the quality of the hatchlings. Even without this, the eggs can still be born safely, but the male insect must remain by the pregnant female's side."

Lin Xi thought of something and frowned, "The problem is that Theodore has already left, and Biddy still has another month and a half before giving birth."

Muas nodded. "After such a long time, if the insect eggs cannot sense the male father's aura and lack the male father's mental power and pheromone nourishment, problems are likely to occur."

Lin Xi said: "Is there no solution?"

Muas said, "There is a way, but it depends on whether Biddy is willing to give it up."

Lin Xi was puzzled: "What do you mean?"

Parker, standing nearby, said, "Male insect pheromones are sold on Starnet, but they're very expensive and often sold out. There are also synthetic pheromones developed in laboratories, but they're equally expensive."

"Synthetic pheromones are also difficult to get, but that doesn't mean we can't get them. If we wait around frequently, we might have a chance."

Muas shook his head and explained the trick: "There's no chance. You can't get it through ordinary means. It keeps showing as sold out, not because someone else grabbed it, but because they don't even put it on the shelf. The buyer gets the news in advance and will contact the seller directly for internal transactions. It won't be put on the Star Network for sale."

Parker was not aware of this unspoken rule and was a little anxious when he heard it: "So what should we do now?"

Lin Xi also frowned: "I just thought it was a problem with star coins. I didn't expect that even if we have star coins, we are not even qualified to buy it."

Muas said: "There is another way."

Lin Xi looked over, and Muas said, "If we can't buy it through regular channels, we can go to the black market. But on the black market, the price of synthetic pheromones will probably increase by three or five times."

Hearing this, Parker covered his head in pain. "Insect God, we can't even afford the normal price. Three or five times that? Just kill me!"

Muas crossed his arms, he had given a solution.

Although this method is much better than nothing, judging from everyone's reactions, it seems to be worse than nothing.

Lin Xi sighed: Star coins, star coins are needed everywhere, a star coin can make a hero fail!

"Let's go see Bidi. Maybe if the insect eggs feel the care of so many insects, they won't need the male insect pheromones anymore." Lin Xi said optimistically.

Parker: “…”

Sander: “…”

Even Muas was speechless after hearing this.

However, Muas still agreed with Lin Xi and said, "Since you want to, then go and have a look from time to time."

Then late at night, Lin Xi took Muas to the medical room to visit Biddy, and also brought Parker and Sander with them.

Parker walked behind, looking as if he had seen a ghost. He muttered, "It's okay for the eldest brother to act like a fool, but why did the reliable second brother follow the eldest brother's lead in doing so?"

The insect cubs need the pheromones of the male father. Can that be made up by a few strange female insects?

Sander elbowed Parker and said, "Stop talking! Didn't you see that the second brother is indulging the eldest brother?"

Parker looked up and saw two insects walking side by side, one handsome and the other delicate. If you just look at their appearance and temperament, they are indeed a good match.

The two insects were talking and laughing, looking very intimate, and they really looked like a pair of loving partners.

Parker hissed, a little loudly.

The two bugs in front turned around at the same time, and Lin Xi asked, "What's wrong?"
