Yuanjing died in a zombie siege during the apocalypse. To gain a chance at rebirth and rewrite his life,
Yuanjing agreed when the demon—oh, no, the system—offered him the opportunity.
...Chapter 219
Wei Mingfeng lifted the signal shielding set up in the underground space, and the starship above received the communication he sent. Qiao Yu immediately sent people to take over the underground space and eliminate the insects there according to Wei Mingfeng's orders.
Qiao Yu and the Crown Prince who received the information here could not believe it. Under the desert of this planet, there was actually a laboratory set up by the Zerg hidden, where they bred a large number of new types of insects. Currently, the highest level was only S-level insects. If SS-level or even higher insects appeared, the consequences would be unpredictable.
The Crown Prince was truly frightened. If Wei Mingfeng had not chosen this place as the assessment location, he might have waited until the Zerg became a plague before alerting the empire. These bugs were hiding right under their noses.
In this way, the reason for the previous insect riot was also found. It was because of the appearance of S-level insects that the insects with lower levels felt threatened and left their own territories one after another. Another reason was that the insects in the underground insect nests wanted to come out to hunt, and these insects had no sense of territory, so the military cadets who came for the assessment also became their hunting targets.
After the others arrived, Wei Mingfeng took these people and Yuan Jing to work together to eliminate most of the insects in the underground insect nest, leaving only some larvae to take back for research. In fact, the empire has never stopped its research on insects.
As for Qi Feng and his five women, they were also secretly brought back to the starship, including the insect egg, which was handled by Wei Mingfeng's trusted personnel and was not disclosed to the outside world.
When the assessment is over, this entire underground space must be destroyed to avoid any future troubles.
When Yuan Jing returned to the live camera, Wei Mingfeng was no longer around him, which made the audience very disappointed. It was a pity that they could not talk to Yuan Jing, otherwise they would have to ask Yuan Jing what happened during the time when the signal was blocked, and what about their admiral? They also wanted Yuan Jing to personally admit his relationship with the admiral.
After leaving the desert, Yuan Jing contacted Xiao Cheng and the others. Knowing that they were still hunting insects outside, he rushed over to meet up with them. Nothing special happened in the next few days. Compared with the beginning, it seemed calm. They did nothing but kill insects until the assessment deadline arrived, when they rushed to the assembly point and returned to the starship.
There is no doubt that Yuan Jing's group ranked first in total points, with a gap of more than 300 points between them and the second place. You should know that A-level insects only have ten points, which shows how big the gap of more than 300 points is, and the second and third places are very close.
So they deserved the championship.
Before the students who took the test and persisted to the end returned to the starship, they actually didn't understand why Yuan Jing and his group could get such high scores. Because some of them withdrew early and returned to the starship, they hurriedly asked what was going on as soon as they boarded the starship. These students who returned early looked at them with complicated expressions.
Because the starship can receive signals from the outside world, it can log in to the star network and watch live broadcasts. They saw many battle videos edited by netizens. Many of the protagonists were Chen Yuanjing, especially the scenes of the battle against A-level bugs and the later battle against S-level bugs. Even they were very excited to watch it.
So when dealing with these people's questions, they would quietly open StarNet and play the few wonderful videos they had downloaded, letting them go and see the answers themselves. After watching the videos, these people were all confused.
My good roommate/good brother/good classmate sincerely advised: "There is a popular saying on the Star Internet nowadays, that a good mecha maker who is not a good pharmacist is not a good mecha warrior."
What the hell? Should I study pharmacy or mecha manufacturing now? Damn it, they are almost led astray by this sentence.
Is the person who can do this still a human being? That person is definitely not a human being, he is a pervert.
Thinking about losing to such a pervert, my mood strangely became a lot better.
Similarly, this incident also caused a huge response in the First Military Academy. The teachers of the Mecha Combat Department went to the principal one after another. Such a combat genius should be in their Mecha Combat Department, so why was he arranged to be in the Mecha Manufacturing Department?
The principal was so annoyed by these teachers that he said, "When he first entered the school, his physical potential was only E-level. Which class would be willing to accept him into the combat department? At that time, the Imperial Pharmacist College was also scrambling for people. It was our luck that he could stay in our First Military Academy. No matter which department Chen Yuanjing is in, he is the pride of our First Military Academy, isn't he?"
The principal knew a little about the situation, but he didn't expect such a big surprise. This situation is even better than that of Wei Mingfeng at the beginning. As long as there is no accident, Chen Yuanjing will definitely leave his name in history books in the future.
"Then it's not too late for you to switch to our mecha combat department now."
"Why should I transfer to your Mecha Combat Department? What's wrong with our Mecha Manufacturing Department?" The head of the Mecha Manufacturing Department, who came rushing over after hearing the news, was so anxious that he jumped up and down. He wanted to poach such an outstanding student? He must be dreaming!
They have been very clear about how outstanding Chen Yuanjing is over the past two years, and they wanted to hide him even deeper. Unexpectedly, a wilderness survival training would expose Chen Yuanjing.
The principal angrily drove out the teachers from these two departments to avoid disturbing his peace. Looking at Chen Yuanjing's attitude, he would not be able to stay in the First Military Academy for long, so why was he still making a fuss?
After the starship sent these students back, Yuan Jing's popularity in reality and on the star network skyrocketed. However, he was fine. He still trained and studied step by step as before, which made the principal and teachers who paid attention to him very pleased.
In addition to studying and training, Yuan Jing still keeps in touch with Wei Mingfeng. Yuan Jing finds that although the interstellar world is large, it has one advantage: they can meet on the star network anytime and anywhere. When entering the holographic world, it is actually not much different from real life.
Wei Mingfeng told him: "You guessed correctly. This Qi Feng is no longer a pure human. Zerg genes have been extracted from his body tissues."
"Was it the potions he took that caused the transformation?" Yuan Jing asked suspiciously, thinking of Qi Feng taking those potions to improve his physical and mental strength.
"Yes, the so-called mental growth agent and physical growth agent are actually a kind of body fluid extracted from the Zerg, which can transform people into Zerg. However, Qi Feng's transformation in the underground laboratory was controlled by the worm in his brain. This time, we can catch the worm and find the laboratory. It will be of great help to us in dealing with the Zerg, because the worm also has a space."
Yuan Jing understood that the bug was disguised as a system. When Qi Feng completed certain tasks and received rewards, those rewards were taken out of space by the bug. "That bug's intelligence is too high. Is there any difference between it and humans?"
"Yes," Wei Mingfeng also looked solemn, "The worm has extremely high mental power and is very smart. Its wisdom should be no less than that of us humans. Its only shortcoming is that its body is too weak, but when it parasitizes on humans, it can make up for this shortcoming. According to our speculation, the worm parasitizes on Qi Feng, and its ultimate goal is to completely control his body and completely transform him into a Zerg. Even his consciousness is controlled by the worm."
Yuan Jing touched the goose bumps on his arm. Oh my god, so by the end of the plot, the so-called hero Qi Feng has become a complete worm, so this is the real reason why the hero and the beauties retired? That's what he said, how could the hero Qi Feng, who is so ambitious, be willing to retire?
What a ridiculous plot, it's not believable at all. What he was shown was just the surface, and the hidden truth was not revealed at all.
Also in the plot, Qi Feng helped many people improve their mental and physical strength. The most important person among them was the third prince. It was with the help of Qi Feng that the third prince's physical and mental strength were improved, so his reputation also increased. He was no longer compared with the former prince, and he ascended the throne smoothly. But in the end, the emperor had actually become a member of the Zerg.
The bugs parasitic on Qi Feng transformed all these people into Zerg, and finally the entire interstellar empire fell into the hands of the Zerg.
The current situation is that they have inadvertently destroyed the Zerg's conspiracy to control the interstellar empire.
"What are you thinking about?" Wei Mingfeng found that Yuan Jing was distracted again, with his eyes blank and no one knew what he was thinking about. This situation had happened more than once. Wei Mingfeng patted Yuan Jing's hand and called him back.
Yuan Jing returned from the plot and said, "I was wondering, if we hadn't discovered the abnormality in Qi Feng and let him continue like this, what would have happened? How many people would the worm control through Qi Feng? And how many people would have turned into Zerg?"
Wei Mingfeng nodded and said, "Yes, that's exactly what we're worried about. We're worried that Qi Feng isn't the only one parasitized by this bug, but there shouldn't be many bugs with SSS-level mental power, so we'll do a survey next."
There was one thing he didn't tell Yuan Jing, which was that after investigation, they found traces of human intervention in the laboratory under the desert, and some equipment was produced in the Interstellar Empire. This proved that humans were colluding with the Zerg, which was the situation they least wanted to see.
Wei Mingfeng wanted to pull all these people out and send them to a military court. These ambitious people wanted to destroy the entire human race because of their ambition. Between humans and Zerg, there is no other way except a life-and-death battle, where either you die or I die.
Yuan Jing asked: "What about Qi Feng and the women around him?"
Wei Mingfeng had a strange expression on his face. "The hormones of insects were detected in those women. Through that... ahem, it was transmitted to them. The relationship between them and Qi Feng is like the absolute obedience of subordinates to their superiors or insect guards to their master insects. However, as long as it doesn't continue, the hormones of insects in their bodies will be gradually eliminated, and they should be able to return to normal in the end. Their bodies have not evolved into insects, so they are still normal humans."
"So after discussion, we decided to send them to the Emperor Star. We will still keep them under strict supervision. We don't know how Qi Feng was parasitized by the bugs, and Qi Feng's situation is a bit abnormal. It is impossible for his works to be created by him alone. The style of his works is completely different. Send him to the Emperor Star to see if there will be bugs that continue to contact him. Can we use him to lure out a few bugs hiding among humans?"
Yuan Jing immediately understood what Wei Mingfeng meant by his unspoken words. He felt a little amused. He didn't expect that Wei Mingfeng was still so, ahem, innocent after living for more than eighty years in this world.
This arrangement was quite to Yuan Jing's liking. He could also learn about Qi Feng's future from Wei Mingfeng. He blinked and said, "General, in the situation of Chen Shanshan and the others, is it Qi Feng or the bug in Qi Feng's brain that they like?"
Wei Mingfeng couldn't help but curl his lips after hearing this. He could see that Yuan Jing was very happy to see Qi Feng having fun. He decided to talk more with Yuan Jing about Qi Feng's situation in the future. He would tell Qiao Yu when he got back and also prepare an extra copy of Qi Feng's situation and send it to him.
"They must think they like Qi Feng now. Let's see if they can wake up after the hormones in their bodies are excreted."
Yuan Jing raised his eyebrows. He also wanted to see how Qi Feng would feel if these women chose to leave him after waking up.
Qi Feng and the other five fell into a coma in the underground laboratory. They were sent to the military laboratory by a special person, and remained in a coma until their conditions were clarified and no more secrets were uncovered. They were then sent to the Imperial Star by a special plane. However, this time, they were under close surveillance by military personnel even when they drank water or went to the toilet.
Qi Feng only felt that he had slept for a very long time. He forgot what happened before falling asleep. He only remembered that he seemed to be taking a potion. After taking it, his mental and physical strength would be taken to a higher level. He would be closer and closer to his goal, and then he would have everything, whether it was beauties, money, or power.
Waking up from a deep sleep, he felt a throbbing pain in his head. He pressed his solar plexus while checking his surroundings and found himself on a big bed in a room. Chen Shanshan and the others were lying on the same bed with him, sharing the same quilt. This was what he wanted to do most, but he was powerless at the moment.
He remembered that he was still on his way to Emperor Star, so where were he now? He pushed the women around him, and several women woke up one after another, asking confusedly: "Brother Feng, where are we?"
"I'll go out and ask."
After leaving the room, Qi Feng realized that they were currently in a hotel room, and the person being questioned looked at him with strange eyes. Just imagine that a man booked a room with five women, what a blessing this is. But looking at his lower body again, such good fortune is good, but if it goes on for a long time, will it really not be worn out?
"Emperor Star? Is this the Emperor Star?"
"Is the guest dazed? This is of course the Imperial Star. The guest came to our hotel and booked a room. Look, here is the registration information you left behind."
Qi Feng rubbed his eyes. Indeed, he knocked his forehead. Could it be that he was really sleepy? However, they were going to come to the Imperial Star anyway, so they should find a place to settle down as soon as possible.
Although the women also doubted their memories, they were indeed on the Imperial Star now, and even their spaceship was docked at the Imperial Star's entrance and exit port, so there was no problem. So after washing up and having a full meal, they went out to find a place to stay.
Finally, the six of them rented a villa and moved in together, starting their life on the Imperial Star. However, Qi Feng would occasionally doubt that this seemed a little different from what he had imagined. He felt that he should spend a fortune to buy a mansion, and then live a luxurious life with his women, but now he had to use the star coins sparingly.
He always felt as if he had lost something important, but when he turned the space button, it seemed that he had not lost anything. He didn't know that the Black Nether Gold had of course been seized by Wei Mingfeng's men. Such important materials for making advanced mechas certainly could not fall into the hands of a problematic person like Qi Feng.
Several women went out shopping, and Qi Feng was thinking about making money. For him, the fastest way to make money was to go back to his old business. What could be faster than making star coins by copying novels?
So, Qi Feng turned on the light brain and began to search in his mind, which book to plagiarize this time. Yes, he would plagiarize Infinite Horror this time. This interstellar world didn't even have a novel theme like Infinite Horror. Isn't this a clear opportunity for him to make a fortune?
"System, I have to hide my identity this time. I also need to see who is trying to get me wrong. I don't want to go somewhere else and start all over again."
The system did not respond, but Qi Feng did not take it seriously, because this system is often like this. Anyway, one day he will completely conquer this system and let the system see clearly who is the master. He typed the four words "Infinite Terror" in the light brain and then began the first chapter.
However, he discovered the problem right at the beginning. In the past, the contents of those novels were extremely clear in his mind. He only needed to type the contents in his mind into the light computer or speak them out loud. It was easy for him to "code" tens of thousands of words a day.
But now, the contents in his mind became blurry. He remembered that the protagonist of the novel was called Zheng Zha. He saw a sentence on the computer, "Do you want to understand the meaning of life? Do you want to truly... live?" Then Zheng Zha pressed the "YES" button, entered the world of horror, and began his journey into the world of horror.
In the past, he could type more than ten thousand words in an hour, but this time, he held the laptop and typed out only a few hundred words in an hour.
"System, what's going on? I used to remember it so clearly, but why is my memory so vague now? Come out and tell me."
But there was still no response. Qi Feng pushed open the computer and stood up. At first, he silently called for the system to respond in his mind, and then he shouted it out directly.
"System, what's going on? Come out quickly!"
"System, are you still here?"
"System, get out of here!"
But no matter how Qi Feng shouted, the system still had no response, as if it was dead. Qi Feng became panicked. The reason why he could live his current life was all thanks to the system. Without the help of the system, he would still be a waste of physical and mental strength of E level. He didn't dare to imagine what he would do after leaving the system.
Qi Feng screamed like a trapped beast in the newly rented villa.
Several people stayed in front of the surveillance screen and took in Qi Feng's condition. When they heard him shout "System, come out", they finally figured out how the bug was parasitic on Qi Feng without him suspecting anything.
However: "Is this guy an idiot? He actually believes in the existence of such a thing as a system? No, didn't he write this kind of system novel? He actually believes in it himself?"
