Born as a Worm Mother, Avis had always been at the top of the pyramid since childhood, adored by all. On the night of his coming-of-age ceremony, he habitually fell asleep on his super luxurious be...
The unknown existence attracted by the powerful and sweet mental power in the chaotic gap was forced back by the powerful mental power.
Elvis looked up in the darkness, the bony lines of his neck becoming increasingly distinct, revealing a breathtakingly handsome appearance in this hidden and narrow space.
As soon as he had a thought, the golden ocean of mental power that had just swept in like a huge wave slowly shrank, leaving only thin threads of mental power.
The thread of mental power first circled around Boyce's huge body, which was moving forward steadily even in the raging storm, and observed it for a while. When it found that the sharp fluctuations did not leave any trace on it, it turned around and flew away as if nothing had happened.
The trembling thread of mental power seemed fragile and would break at any moment, but it still moved forward tenaciously in the face of countless violent storms.
A faint attraction came from a distant place. Elvis manipulated his mental power to pass through countless entrances that had no response or even kept rejecting people, before he slowly found the correct place.
In an instant, the familiar power that came towards him intertwined with the mental power.
Elvis smiled, and the small ball of mental power hidden deep in Boyce's spiritual sea slowly stretched out, directing Boyce to find the right direction.
An unknown amount of time passed, time gradually blurring into thin air. Only the tentacles, constantly monitoring Elvis's condition even through the cracks in space, continued to assert their presence.
Once again pushing away the sticky tentacles, just as Elvis's tolerance for Wang Fu, which was slightly higher than that of other creatures, was about to run out, an irresistible attraction came over him.
The world spun, and the dull thud of the storm colliding with Boyce's hard shell vanished. Simultaneously, the pervasive pressure within the spatial rift suddenly eased.
As the layers of tentacles gradually withdrew, Elvis saw the real, brilliant starry sky that he had not seen for a long time.
——They are back.

"How long will we be locked up? It's already been a month!" The young man, who had once again begged for medicine in vain, looked furious. "These hateful bugs are going too far!"
"Be careful with your words." The black-haired young man leaning against the stone wall raised his head, revealing a handsome face.
A gentleman is like jade, with a restrained brilliance.
Even though her face was flushed and her lips were dry and covered with tiny cracks that were bleeding, it did not diminish her radiance at all.
"But your injury can't be delayed any longer." The young man said, lowering his head in shame: "It's all my fault. I lost my patience and caused you to get hurt."
"Don't blame yourself." The black-haired young man smiled gently and comforted her.
They were the human representatives who had come for the insect mother's coming-of-age ceremony.
Because of some disagreements, the Slesoni tampered with their spacecraft's power system. Although the Slesoni were eventually torn apart by the Zerg and thrown back to their home planet, it also delayed the black-haired young man's return journey.
Therefore, when the Zerg suddenly went crazy and captured all the races that came to attend the ceremony and took them back to Gedsens, their group, which was the last to set out, was the first to be hit.
Fan Hongfei, a young man on his first long-distance trip, was full of youthful energy. He was furious at the Zerg's behavior of forcing the ship to stop without explanation and barging in. Thinking of the cold reception he had received along the way, he became even more dissatisfied and actually started fighting with the Zerg.
As a student who had not yet graduated from military school and had never been to the battlefield, he was naturally no match for the Zerg, which was considered the most powerful fighting force in the universe. Instead, he dragged down the black-haired young man who went to rescue him and was injured by the Zerg.
Unable to resist, they were taken back to Gedsens, where the Zerg threw them into an empty cave and imprisoned them.
Afterwards, people from various races were imprisoned there one after another, and the empty cave gradually became lively.
Although the Zerg were angry, they obviously had no intention of killing them.
The treatment is not good, but we can barely survive.
It's just that it's too difficult to ask for medicine for the black-haired young man.
Chapter 57
This is not because the Zerg are deliberately making things difficult for them.
After all, we can't expect the Zerg, who have strong bodies, to have enough medicine for their wounds.
The Zerg, even when severely wounded, can rapidly recover thanks to their exceptional self-healing abilities. Aside from the Zerg Queen, wound medicine is rarely used. Furthermore, even the Zerg Queen, while considered fragile compared to the Zerg, is still exceptional among humans.
Moreover, the Zerg Queen is guarded by many Zergs, who would rather die than see the Zerg Queen get hurt in the slightest, so the Zerg's medicine for wounds is only kept for precautionary measures.
But this is also the case. How can the medicine prepared for insect queens be used on humans?
Although the Zerg had no intention of killing the races they detained, they did not care much about their lives.
Fortunately, humanity's physical fitness had greatly improved during the interstellar era, and the black-haired young man had never slacked off in his training. Furthermore, because the humans, aside from their somewhat violent reaction when captured, had been quite cooperative, and compared to other races who had been clamoring and trying to escape, the Zerg's attitude towards them was relatively lenient.
Therefore, the black-haired young man and his men were able to obtain the medicine stored in the spaceship from the Zerg.
Unfortunately, their trip was supposed to be safe, and for the sake of the Zerg Queen's reputation, the Zerg wouldn't let anything go wrong during the ceremony. Therefore, there weren't many medicines on board.
Fortunately, something is better than nothing. The black-haired young man relied on strong willpower and rare medicine to survive until now.
Even if those who are sent to participate in the Zerg ceremony are not particularly proficient, they must have mastered some basic Zerg language.
In the day-to-day prison life, the black-haired young man and his companions roughly figured out what had happened from the sporadic conversations between the Zerg who came and went hurriedly and became increasingly violent.
The insect mother has disappeared.
After the ceremony, the Worm Mother and the King's Husband returned to the palace where they lived and did not leave again. However, even in the heavily guarded palace, the Worm Mother disappeared.
Also disappeared was the king's husband, Joseph Beuys.
The Zerg are now divided into two voices.
On one side are some high-level Zergs who have coveted the position of King's Consort for many years and are extremely dissatisfied with Boyce's monopoly of the Zerg Queen. They insist that it was Boyce who took the Zerg Queen away.
After all, who else but the powerful Boyce could take away the Zerg Queen from the tight defense without alerting any Zerg?
On the other side was Cedric, a high-ranking Zerg who had personally taken back the Zerg Queen who had not yet hatched and had been in charge of Zerg affairs for many years. He insisted that the disappearance of the Zerg Queen had nothing to do with the king's husband and asked that the focus be placed elsewhere and not to waste time.
Although neither side is willing to submit to the other, the safety of the Insect Queen is paramount, so they can put aside their disputes and cooperate temporarily.
Fortunately, both sides wanted to find the Insect Queen first. After confirming that it was not these people who came to attend the ceremony who caused trouble, they put them aside.
As for letting them go?
The Zerg doesn't need this cave anymore, let's wait until we find the Zerg Queen.
The Zerg have always been so domineering and unreasonable. Although the detained representatives are angry, they are powerless to change it.
However, Fan Hongfei was a student who had not yet graduated and whose major was not suitable for this operation. He was able to join the team largely because his father held a high position.
He had never been treated with such contempt and neglect since he was a child. In addition, he was young and full of energy, so he was naturally full of complaints.
Fortunately, although Fan Hongfei had been pampered, he hadn't lost his head. His approach to life was also quite commendable. He had also been very attentive to the black-haired young man who had been injured because of him, and the group had been getting along quite well.
Hearing the comfort from the black-haired young man, the young man couldn't help but have tears in his eyes.
The spoiled young man was squeezed into a cramped and crowded cave with a lot of guilt, enduring all kinds of noise for a whole month. Listening to the comfort of the captain who was only a few years older than him but steady and mature, he could hardly hold back the grievance in his heart.
The man who was listening couldn't help but laugh, the worry on his face was well hidden: "It's okay, relax. There's nothing to cry about, it's embarrassing."
The black-haired young man sighed helplessly, but also smiled.
At this moment, some terrifying existence descended.
The deep and unfathomable vibrations radiated rapidly and silently throughout the entire universe.
The noisy voices in the cave suddenly stopped. They couldn't help but tremble, and fear seeped into their bones.
The universe is so vast, and they are just a tiny speck of it. The fear and anxiety that weak animals feel when facing their natural enemies are fully reflected in them.
There was no thought of escape in my mind. Every muscle was out of control, and I didn't know when I had held my breath. My body had already made the best response for me, reducing my presence, not prying, not provoking, not even thinking about it.
Keep quiet and don't move...
...Perhaps it was just a moment, perhaps a lot had changed, when the black-haired young man came to his senses, he found that his hands were shaking constantly.
At some point, his body pressed tightly against the stone wall behind him, as if trying to bury himself deeply inside. The wound was hideous, and blood flowed out again due to the trembling.
He tried to relax, taking deep breaths, and slowly calming down the remaining fear.
Finally, the shaking stopped.
He leaned against the stone wall and closed his eyes.
"Are you okay?" The man who had just spoken helped Fan Hongfei, who was lying limp on the ground, and asked with his back to the black-haired young man without looking back.
"I'm fine." The black-haired young man smiled bitterly and asked, "How is he?"
"It's okay. He just fainted because the stimulation was too great. He will be fine when he wakes up." The man replied calmly.
"That's good." The black-haired young man was silent for a moment, then said in an ambiguous tone, "The Worm Queen is back."
"It's good that you're back. We can go back now." The man leaned Fan Hongfei against the stone wall, turned around and smiled, and said.
The black-haired young man shook his head and looked at the cave with empty eyes.
