After flickering a few times, it became completely stable.

Elvis looked at mankind's mechanical creations, the last defenders of human civilization.

Even in his translucent form, one could tell he had black hair and dark eyes. His features were clear, and a smile played at the corners of his lips. The complex characters that occasionally flashed in his eyes diluted his natural gentleness, adding a touch of inorganic coldness.

"I've always been curious," Ives said, "Humanity has already vanished from this world. Why are you still so obsessed with turning the Zerg into a second human race?"

What was there to see DeWitt about? That question was just a spur-of-the-moment thought. Elvis's real purpose today was to meet this persistent mechanical creature.

Burt obviously didn't expect Elvis to ask him this question. Complex characters danced in his eyes, and finally fell silent.

"I don't know," he answered honestly, and after a pause he added, "I was just following instructions."

He had some emotion in his first sentence, but later on, the cold, mechanical feeling took over again.

Bert was born when humans were powerless against the Zerg's slaughter. The original setting in his program was to preserve and continue human civilization.

But in the end, humans could not escape the fate of disappearing.

"Without humans, the thinking Zerg are more in line with your goals than the mindless beasts."

After hearing Bert's answer, Ives seemed to believe it and slowly recounted the story, "So you devised ways to arouse the power-hungry nature of the higher Zerg—the males—by erasing the existence of the Zerg Queens, transferring human technology to the Zerg, and subtly inducing them to change their habits."

"Every step of the Zerg's development to this day has been inseparable from your secret guidance. Oh, and you were also secretly guiding Modima to create a replica of the Zerg Queen."

DeWitt's face changed and he stared at Bert, his eyes full of vicious resentment.

Chapter 55

Bert was indifferent.

DeWitt had outlived his usefulness and was nothing in his eyes.

Besides, he never took the male insect seriously.

His goal is to continue human civilization, and who the real implementer is is not that important to him.

He stared at Elvis, the characters in his eyes flickering: "Yes, I did."

"What are you going to do with me?" Bert said this with a hint of curiosity.

"Let Alvin and the others decide." Elvis replied listlessly.

Perhaps it was because he had stayed here long enough that Elvis gradually began to lose interest in everything. After all, this was not his world, and even though it was closely related to him, he couldn't get excited.

What's more, the mystery that attracted him has been solved, and the interest has been greatly reduced.

He came to see Bert hoping that Bert would bring him some fun, but obviously, Bert didn't do that.

Or at first, Burt did.

His initial answer did arouse Elvis's interest, but later on, Elvis lost interest.

"Go out." Elvis's face suddenly turned cold. He said this lightly, got up and left.

He is the insect queen who is the center of attention. He never needs to restrain his emotions, and no creature dares to ask him to restrain himself.

Just follow your heart, there is no need to worry about anything.

Boyce was not at all flustered and followed Elvis closely.

All this happened in just a few seconds, and the female soldiers were still standing there without reacting.

The moment Boyce stepped out of the lounge, cold pheromones swept across the entire lounge.

The bloody and cold breath made all the Zerg inside stand on end instantly. Bert's projection flickered a few times, struggling to maintain a blurry figure.

Only after the trembling that permeated his bones subsided did Alvin and the military girl hurriedly catch up with Elvis.

As soon as they stepped out of the door, they stepped lightly.

Elvis stood at the edge of the corridor, looking down at the central area where the chaos was gradually subsiding.

The corridor is built with special materials. Outsiders cannot see inside at all, but it is clear when looking from the inside out.

The command center wasn't the tallest building in the central area, but it was definitely the most strategically located. Though inconspicuous, it offered a view of most of the central area.

Under the control of the system, the night is deep and the stars dot the endless night sky.

The aircraft whizzed through the sky, leaving faint traces behind. In the distance, female soldiers in uniform could be seen patrolling the streets. As they receded, a child's head popped out of a nearby window, gazing at their figures for a long time.

Everything is quiet and beautiful.

The young man who lowered his head to observe had shining golden hair. He watched quietly, his blue eyes like the vast ocean sleeping in the night, with an ambiguous tenderness beneath the ripples.

The tall Zerg behind him had a cold and hard profile. Just standing there, he looked like an unfathomable abyss shrouded in ghostly fog, eerie and cold.

But when the inorganic dark blue vertical pupils fell on the golden-haired king in front of him, the strong affection was so sincere and strong that no one could ignore it.

Hearing the deliberately quiet footsteps that stopped, Elvis didn't turn around and said lightly: "Find a quiet place."

Alvin acted quickly and quickly set up a quiet and private meeting room.

Ives walked to the conference table and sat down, playing with Boyce's slender and powerful fingers, and said casually: "Alvin and Allen stay, the rest of the Zerg go out."

The female soldiers paused and left the meeting room without objection. The last female soldier to leave even considerately closed the door.

"sit."

Seeing that Alvin and Allen were quite at a loss, Ivis pointed to the empty chair opposite.

As Alvin and Allen sat down, Ivis glanced at Boyce, who was clinging to him.

Boyce understood, and his thick tentacles snaked out from behind him like a snake, placing a jade-white and soft insect egg on the conference table.

Elvis's pheromones didn't release. Even if some of them slipped out, they were completely absorbed by the vicious dog beside him, and not a single drop would leak out.

Therefore, as soon as the insect eggs appeared, his light and soft pheromones immediately filled the entire conference room.

Alvin and Allen's eyes became dazed, and all the violence in their spiritual sea was soothed and slowly dissipated.

At the moment when Alvin was about to reach out and touch the insect eggs involuntarily, he seemed to have broken free from some terrible temptation and suddenly regained his consciousness.

His back was soaked with cold sweat, and he grabbed Allen's outstretched hand: "Alan, wake up!"

Allen was brought back to his senses by Alvin's shout, and he stepped back suddenly, with the chair making a harsh sound as it scraped against the ground.

Seeing this, Elvis raised his eyebrows in surprise.

Wakes up quickly.

Zergs that are not loyal to the Zerg Queen are easily captured by the Zerg Queen's pheromones.

Ivis didn't expect Alvin to wake up so quickly.

"Sir..." Alvin stared at Elvis closely, and an ominous premonition gradually spread from the bottom of his heart.

"It's the Worm Queen." Ives ignored his gaze. "Boyce and I are leaving. Your future mental turmoil can be quelled by the Worm Queen eggs. It will take some time for him to hatch, and I don't know the exact time. Perhaps you have already passed away, and he hasn't been able to come out yet."

At this point, Elvis smiled.

The appearance of the worm mother egg does not mean that the worm mother will immediately appear in the world. The time when the worm mother will hatch is unpredictable.

He was found by the Zerg at that time, and was later raised with Boyce. He hatched long after Boyce had hatched.

By then, Boyce was already able to venture into the chaotic interstellar space on his own.

As if knowing what Elvis was thinking, Boyce gently pinched Elvis's slender white fingertips and narrowed his pupils slightly.

"Where are you going?" Alvin asked after a moment of silence.

He looked at Elvis expectantly, his eyes pleading.

Ives didn't avoid his gaze. "You can't go where I'm going. Besides, the Zerg are in ruins right now. Can you leave everything behind?"

Ivis hadn't deceived Alvin. He and Boyce were able to come into this world because of "Ivis." But even so, they couldn't stay for long.

Even if Elvis and Boyce didn't leave now, they wouldn't be able to stay for long.

Moreover, the space gap was violent and chaotic, and even with Boyce's strong body, he would suffer heavy damage if he was not careful, not to mention that the Zerg here had already weakened their bodies several times.

Alvin was silent.

Now that the males have been detained, their trials are imminent. The placement of males who are innocent or have been convicted of minor offenses after trial is also a problem.

After the transformation, the female, sub-female and male insects also need to get used to each other's relationship.

And Bert's handling...

He couldn't just abandon these things if he wanted to.

"I've given you the insect mother eggs. If you wish to announce their existence, please do so."

Ives stood up and slowly walked out of the meeting room with Boyce.

Alan's lips moved, but no words came out.

Alvin smiled bitterly, wiped his face, and patted Allen on the shoulder: "Face the reality."

Alan pulled the corners of his lips, but found it difficult to control the smile and gave up: "Don't wipe your sweat on my clothes."

Alvin looked away. "When Colvin comes back, I'll give him a good beating. Since the Lord is coming from Silver Star, he must know something."

"That kid deserves a beating." Alan echoed, pretending not to see the sweat on his shoulders.

They never mentioned Elvis's departure.

——

As Elvis walked out of the meeting room, the female soldier guarding the door immediately saluted.

Ives stopped in front of them: "Do you have a map?"

"Yes!" the female soldier on the right answered loudly, and hurriedly took out a folded map from her pocket.

Elvis didn't answer: "Circle the room that Alvin arranged for us.
