Qi Heng played...

Chapter 241

Chapter 241

Qi Heng opened his eyes and turned on the computer.

Because A0 has always been responsible for information processing, his optical computer does not have any personal settings. Like any terminal with the 'HW' logo, it uses the factory settings.

He first glanced at the account logged into his computer, and after confirming that it was "Doctor", he clicked on the shaking message bar and began to process the messages in the chat software.

This is probably the only difference from the factory terminal.

His optical computer is bound to two different identity accounts instead of just one.

With A0 processing, you don’t have to worry about logging into the wrong number, but now that A0 has been upgraded, it’s better to be careful.

Otherwise, if you log in to the wrong number, it will be a big joke.

There was a small overlap in the chat friends and circles of 'Doctor' and 'Qi Heng', and he didn't want to reveal his other fake identity at all.

The "doctor" rarely uses chat software and usually issues orders directly, mainly editing emails and sending them to his subordinates (Qi Heng).

Then the specific implementation is decided by 'Qi Heng', who connects with other bugs, so this account has only a single digit number of chat friends.

In the empty list, a new chat group suddenly appeared, and the note was still [Area 1 Male Insect Management Group].

This is the group that A0 was asked to join before.

He was not surprised at A0's speed. In fact, it was only at this time that he reminded himself that the group was not just created, but the last of the invited male insects had just joined the group.

【Area 1 Male Insect Management Group】

Glancing at the group members next to me, I saw that every male had changed their business card IDs, and the format of their notes was very uniform. They all had their names, plus the order in which they joined the group.

There are a total of one hundred and seventeen male insects.

This is the current number of male insects with terminals in Area 1. It is not a lot, but not a few either.

You have to know that the distribution of terminals is conditional. The fact that these male insects can get the terminals is definitely unrelated to the conditions he set. There are not many male insects that can pass the exam, and even fewer that are qualified to receive the reward.

A large part of these items were probably purchased on behalf of unicorns. Qi Heng knew this, but he turned a blind eye and did not intend to investigate further.

If unicorns are willing to spend their own wages to buy terminals and do favors, then let them do it.

This is also a way to promote the flow of terminals into the hands of the Zerg.

He sent a message.

[Doctor HW: Regarding the notification in the group, I hope everyone will read it carefully and reply "read" at the end of the document after reading it.]

There is a link in the notification pinned to the group chat.

After he spoke, the link was clicked hundreds of times in the blink of an eye.

Five minutes later, Qi Heng's document received hundreds of responses. After confirming that they had all read it, he typed out the second sentence.

[Doctor HW: I hope everyone will sign up and cooperate.]

The male insects in Area 1 looked at this sentence with complicated expressions.

They all knew something about 'Doctor Sir' from the One-Horned Man, but this was their first encounter with him.

When faced with the doctor's requests, no matter what they think in their hearts, they at least respond with nice words such as "I will definitely cooperate" and "I guarantee my support".

【Doctor HW: Thank you for your help. 】

Qi Heng typed out a line of words and stared at the text constantly refreshing in the group chat with a dull expression.

[Doctor HW: I heard from 001 that some notifications and matters related to male insects in Area 1 will be discussed with you.]

Doctor HW: Gray Fog is very democratic, so everyone can freely express any suggestions they want to make.

In Zone 1.

The luxurious home of former District Chief Galen has been turned into a place dedicated to meetings.

This time, 001 called some male insects that were nearby to come for a meeting.

At this moment, although they were all looking at the content in the chat room on the terminal in their hands, they kept an eye on the other male insects around them from time to time, trying to see what they were thinking from their expressions.

Jiwei is also among them.

No male insect wanted to be the first to speak. They were unfamiliar with the doctor. Although they had noticed his actions since he appeared, they could not easily raise opinions.

It is impossible not to mention it.

The doctor has spoken, so how can they remain silent?

What's more, they have all seen the development of the female insects, and it is impossible for them not to be moved and jealous.

The life and treatment of male insects have always been much better than those of female insects. The appearance of doctors and gray fog did not bring many substantial benefits to male insects. Instead, it made them confused about the future.

Originally, they only needed to listen to the words of the unicorns. From birth to adulthood, they had been living a day-to-day life. Their only task was to reproduce eggs with the female insects. If they were lucky, they might be able to raise their own male eggs with their own hands.

The male insect that can sit here is not necessarily smarter than other male insects, but it can definitely see farther than other male insects.

They clearly understood that the situation in the gathering place was no longer the same, and if they did not take action, they would be left behind in this change.

If you fall behind by one step, it will be difficult to catch up.

The literacy education promoted by this doctor is not just about learning to read. In the process of learning, they have rediscovered the glory that their race once created in the starry sea and realized how powerful the past civilization was.

Similarly, under the premise that the other party had no intention of hiding anything, they also knew that male insects were not just accessories and had the sole purpose of reproduction.

Male insects are not as useless as the unicorns say. They also have mental power. They can do what female insects can do. In fact, in terms of mental power, they are stronger than female insects.

After all, among the Tianjia Zerg, the male Zerg are the ones that focus on mental power.

The male insects who were raised as useless parasites also gained wisdom during the education process. They realized that they could have another way out.

As a result, many male insects are unwilling to continue their previous life of lying down.

Education is enforced by the unicorns, and not all male insects actively accept it, but most are happy to join the big family of learning.

Among these proactive male insects, they are the ones who have undergone the greatest ideological changes.

However, the more they learned, the more frustrated these male insects became.

Just like female insects whose wings are stripped off when they are young to restrict their development, the fate of male insects when they are young is not much better. They lose their own mental power before they even realize it.

The doctor did not deliberately conceal this.

Therefore, they all knew that they had undergone brain-sealing surgery in their childhood under the arrangement of the One-Horned Man, which directly blocked their ability to use mental power at the physical level.

They are unfortunate, but their cubs are lucky.

In the past two months, no male insect cubs have undergone the same surgery as them, which means that these male insect cubs will be able to use their mental power normally in the future.

The male insects present looked at each other, but no one was about to speak.

The male insect cubs followed the gray fog and ran away from home. It was not only Ji Wei's male son Ji Lin who had the opportunity to stay. At least several of the male sons' fathers were also present.

These male insect parents didn’t know everything about what Ji Wei had learned from Ji Lin, but they knew most of it.

But they didn't speak.

I have no idea what to say, so I might as well just shut up and listen to what the other male insects have to say.

The male insects who are still able to sit here and hold meetings in Area 1 are all very smart. They have been dealing with the unicorns for more and longer periods of time and have inherited a lot of experience from their fathers.

They are more sophisticated than the female insects who have always been restricted and rarely have private contact with the unicorns.

001 was also present. He looked at the silent male insects and felt a little uneasy.

No, even if you don’t say anything, you should at least express your opinion.

Doctor, are you still waiting?

It must be said that it is a male insect that is actually leaving the doctor alone.

As the only non-male insect, 001 felt very helpless staying in a group of all male insects.

These guys are not afraid of neglecting the doctor, he is afraid.

No, this can't go on. Who knows when they will see each other again?

001 coughed lightly, attracting the attention of all the male insects to himself.

"Everyone, don't you have anything to say?"

001 gestured for them to check the chat room on the terminal. "We can't just leave the Doctor waiting like this."

"Don't worry, I've dealt with this gentleman before, and he's very easy to talk to."

"Just speak your mind."

Thinking of the doctor's swift and decisive actions, 001 could only sigh in his heart that he had knelt down quickly and admitted his mistake quickly, so that he could save his life at the hands of the other party.

Although I haven't heard of any sensational military achievements of this gentleman, but since he was able to deal with those people in the research base left by the Ikar civilization, I know that he is not a simple person.

There is no need to play any roundabout ways with people like this. The best way to deal with them is to speak directly.

Now that 001 has spoken, it would be inappropriate for them to remain silent.

"We don't want to keep your Excellency the doctor waiting, but for the moment, we don't know where to start." A voice rang out in the silence, appearing particularly clear.

Now, the male insects all looked towards the source of the sound.

Facing the gazes of all the male insects, Ji Wei nodded and smiled calmly at them, "Why are you all looking at me? Is what I said wrong?"

Yes, you are right, but I didn’t expect that you would be the one to break the deadlock.

The male insects present didn't all know each other, but they all lived in Area 1 and had met each other several times.

Ji Wei's appearance is extremely outstanding even among male insects. More than ten years ago, when they were young, they were considered each other's competitors.

Although now it seems that this kind of "competitor" makes the insect ashamed.

[35 Jiwei: Hello, Doctor. I'd like to ask you a question regarding mental strength.]

[35 Jiwei: In recent days, some underage male insects have displayed special abilities. I suspect they are mental powers. We adult male insects don't have mental powers, so we don't know how to properly use and teach the young ones. Is there any relevant information I can refer to?]

Ji Wei lowered his head, then raised it after a while and tapped the terminal on his wrist.

"Why are you all looking at me? Look at the group."
