Question: You transmigrated to become the evil big boss of a murder mystery game right after the final scene. What kind of ending will you face?
Yu Ling: Thanks for the invitation, I know thi...
Yu Ling opened his eyes once again in this new world. He felt that his body was full of power, and even had a feeling of infinite vitality.
A pretty good start, that's rare!
Just as she finished marveling at it, Yu Ling was completely dumbfounded when she finally saw what her body actually was.
He retracted his earlier comment; the Supreme God was still acting like an inhuman being!
Yu Ling waved his long tentacles, which were connected to a vast insectoid mental network. Beneath him were countless tentacles that served as his feet, about the thickness of plant vines, and secreted a lot of sticky fluid unique to the insectoids, which dripped from them.
It's like those works from a small, insignificant country, the kind of anime/manga that some frivolous magical boys and girls like... (cough cough cough! You know what I mean!)
So, he transmigrated again, and this time he became some kind of monster with a drastically different art style... Hmm? A genderless insect that is neither male nor female?
Yu Ling said he had never seen anything like it before and found it very novel. The place felt like the original owner's lair, and there was no danger. He felt that he urgently needed to receive the original owner's memories first.
...StarCraft, where mechs reign supreme, and countless aircraft and warships exist—this is a world whose territory has expanded beyond a single planet.
Against the backdrop of a vast constellation of stars, the people here strangely possess no magical abilities, but instead reign supreme through mental power.
In addition, their physical fitness has greatly improved, but not to the point of being extraordinary.
With the widespread adoption of body-refining techniques, compared to Earth, the average person is roughly at the level of a top-tier athlete, without the internal injury side effects.
The original owner, Lancelot, possessed extraordinary mental strength, but unfortunately, he was not human; instead, he was the king of the Zerg, a race universally hated in interstellar space.
He is the most powerful royal insect hatched since the birth of the nest, with a mental power level above all the royal insects born before him.
From a young age, the original owner was revered to the highest position by the entire insect swarm, leading a group of gluttonous insects who only knew how to eat to invade everywhere.
It's not like they're conquering any territory. Aside from the royal insects and queen insects, these insects have absolutely no intelligence. They're even less intelligent than a three-month-old human. Even if they were to occupy the territory, they wouldn't be able to manage it.
The insectoid race led by the original owner did not indiscriminately kill innocents; they simply ate whatever they could find to eat. They ate plants, animals, and if they encountered intelligent humans or strange aliens, they did not actively pursue them once they ran away.
However, the Zerg that roam around eating are still too annoying, especially since the Hive is so prolific. Even if all the Zerg are genderless and infertile, a single Hive can still produce enough larvae to fill an entire planet in a year.
Lancelot: I can't afford to raise them, I simply can't afford to raise them!
He gave up. Anyway, the Zerg could still reproduce even if the mother hive died, so it didn't matter if they all starved to death. He let his overlords lead the Zerg away, and he stayed behind as a child.
Lancelot, relying on the Zerg's thick hide and ability to traverse interstellar space, would occasionally sneak out alone to do some work, and then come back to lie around like a corpse, living a rather comfortable life.
Unfortunately, he underestimated the ability of a group of mentally challenged children to cause trouble.
The strongest interstellar alliance, the Imperial Alliance, was at the peak of its technology. Having just explored the surrounding planets with exploitable resources and recruited a planet inhabited by intelligent aliens into the alliance, they unexpectedly encountered a desolate planet that had been devoured by insects and was now barren.
Good heavens, this is terrifying! What could have destroyed this planet so completely, leaving only the surface?
After tireless efforts and research, representatives from major planets of the Imperial Alliance held numerous meetings and reached a consensus—it was the insects who did it.
The interstellar space is vast. The Zerg can only reproduce on the Zerg planet where their original host was located, but other Zerg have spread to many planets in the process of feeding. The Empire will inevitably encounter them one day.
The Zerg team they encountered was led by an Overlord who had a rather bad temper, loved to eat meat, and wouldn't even spare intelligent creatures; they were a rare and monstrous Zerg.
They devoured the people who came to study them, which caused a huge rift and forged an irreconcilable enmity with the Empire. After that, humans and insectoids started fighting, and humans began eating roasted and fried insects. The two sides fought and ate each other like this.
Later, the human race developed mechs specifically for people with strong mental abilities, making these metal lumps as agile as humans, and embarking on a one-way journey to defeat the Zerg.
Ultimately, the foolish Zerg were defeated. The king Zerg was destroyed, and the entire Zerg he led was wiped out. Only the lone Zerg, according to their racial characteristics, took the corpses of their powerful comrades back to the Zerg King for recycling.
The unfortunate original owner, sitting at home, was struck by misfortune from the sky.
After devouring the corpse of the Queen Insect and absorbing its memories, he also swallowed the human locator.
Right now, the strongest general in the Imperial Alliance who defeated the King Worm is on his way to the Worm Planet.
Yu Ling: I have something to say [beep], but I don't know if I should say it.
The original owner of this body is so innocent! What if that imperial general came in a mech? We couldn't possibly defeat them with sheer numbers of bugs!
In particular, technologically advanced empires have researched many unused, highly lethal weapons and are looking for planets to test them on.
If two interstellar nuclear magnetic cannons were fired at the insect planet, even the original owner's body, with its tenacious vitality, would be doomed.
The mother hive has the most impressive regeneration ability; it might even be able to find another place to breathe, continue breeding, and revive the Zerg's glorious past.
This is tricky!
Yu Ling has once again set her sights on a certain... trash system with an IQ comparable to that of the Zerg.
"System, do you want to be a human or an insect?"
The system, with its meager intelligence, pondered for a moment.
First of all, the host is an insect. If it says it wants to be human, the host will throw it into the human race as an undercover agent, and it will have to fight alone.
However, if it were a Zergling, being with its host and a whole bunch of Zerglings would greatly increase its sense of security!
[Host, I also want to be a Zerg!]
Yu Ling looked down at the huge pile of tentacled feet beneath her, her monstrous face displaying no emotion as her sanity plummeted.
".......OK."
Yu Ling placed an order with great enthusiasm, assigning the system the body of a newborn queen insect, which has now been 'born' from the mother nest.
"Whoosh—"
The tough tentacles decisively pierced through a certain part of Yu Ling's own insect body, rummaged around, and pulled out a locator that was constantly emitting signals.
Then, the tentacle carrying the locator quickly pierced into the body of a system worm that had just acquired a body and had not yet adapted to its new form.
[Ouch, it hurts!!!]
Yu Ling: "Go, take the remaining insects from Insect Star and lure that Imperial General away!"
System Bug: So, in the end, I still have to act alone?
