Chapter 17 Zerg World 17 Will you kill me tomorrow?
In this world, Ferro's greatest reliance is the plot in his mind.
Relying on those plots, he almost killed the protagonist at the beginning of the story, and then made Friedrich, who loved Ryan dearly in the later part of the story, turn against him and join him in dealing with his destined lover.
So at this critical moment, Ferro naturally brought out his future remarks again.
"You've always lived in an environment where you're not recognized by the other insects. Even your most respected and depended-on female father has never given you recognition. So you've always been unwilling to accept this, and you're particularly dissatisfied with Frederick, who doesn't need to do anything to gain the praise of the insects."
Ferro pressed himself against the cold wall and spoke very quickly, fearing that if he spoke slowly he would be killed by the impatient villain.
"Am I right?! Alex!"
The male insect's trembling sound echoed throughout the bathroom.
"If you still don't believe me, then do you remember what you saw through the crack in the door when you were five years old?! Why do you hate male insects so much and why do you resist their approach so much, Alex, do you remember?!"
Click.
Alex stopped walking towards Ferro.
Perhaps it was because at this moment the insect had revealed the darkest and most unrequited memory in his mind that Alex's face turned ugly and his eyes became even colder.
“Who told you that?!”
"This, this is not your concern,"
Ferro paused, then said, "Just tell me, am I right?"
Alex: “…”
He didn't speak.
But in this case, silence was enough of an answer.
Ferro's eyes lit up, and he immediately took advantage of the situation and said, "Now you can believe what I just said, right?"
"In the near future, you will really die at his hands!"
Ferro looked at Chu Sicheng behind Alex, his eyes filled with anger and a hint of hatred.
He really couldn't understand how strong this guy's protagonist halo was that he couldn't be killed until now.
The protagonist left and a villain came.
Isn't the protagonist of this novel a poor little thing? When did he become a fan of insects?!
Ferro couldn't figure it out.
But he didn't need to figure it out now. After all, from the villain's ambiguous expression, he could tell that the other party had begun to waver because of what he said.
Just like Friedrich before him.
The emergency alarm in Ferro's mind finally stopped. He breathed a sigh of relief. When Alex frowned and looked at Chu Sicheng, he added fuel to the fire.
"I saw it. In the future, Ryan will pierce your neck with a sharp knife. Blood will gush out. You will die quickly and miserably..."
He said, "Alex, do you remember the tattoo knife that wasn't used on Ryan?"
After that live broadcast, many torture instruments were lost in the chaos in Mogras's punishment room, including the tattooed knife that was used as a punishment by the Insect God.
Seeing that Alex's expression was becoming more and more solemn, Ferro, who believed that his "prophecy" had once again captured the hearts of the insects, raised the corner of his mouth slightly. Then, in order to increase the weight in his hand, he turned his spearhead to Chu Sicheng, who had been silent from the beginning until now.
"Mr. Ryan, do you dare to admit it? The tattoo knife is in your hand now!"
Ferro thought that with his "precognitive" ability and Alex's silence, the male insect would definitely not dare to admit that he had indeed taken the hot potato of the tattoo knife.
However, a white light flashed, and as the black hair on Ferro's temples fell to the ground, a white knife engraved with golden runes was deeply inserted into the wall next to his head.
It was exactly where he expected the shot to go.
The male insect snapped his fingers in satisfaction, then looked at Ferro and smiled before speaking.
"Dear Sir Ferro, I don't know, is this the one you are talking about?"
Chu Sicheng spoke softly, his natural and casual tone seemed to indicate that he did not take Ferro's threat seriously at all, or perhaps, he did not care about anything Bug said.
Including those prophecies and the stories about Alex's childhood told from his mouth.
Chu Sicheng stood up straight, and with a smile on his face, he walked towards Fei Luo step by step, in the increasingly frightened eyes of Fei Luo.
During this time, he passed by Frederick who was lying on the ground, not knowing whether he was alive or dead, and also passed by Alex who had his eyes downcast and was thinking about something.
With a slight force of his slender white fingers, he pulled out the knife that was almost completely embedded in the wall.
The platinum blade danced lightly at his fingertips, and Chu Sicheng's gaze slowly fell on Ferro's neck.
"The sharp blade pierced the neck, and blood gushed out, right?"
Chu Sicheng chuckled softly, raised his hand and gestured at Fei Luo's neck.
"I'm quite curious about that scene. Tell me, should I use you to demonstrate it first?"
The male insect winked playfully at Ferro, and his tone rose slightly, as if he was not asking a bloody question concerning the insect's life, but just casually asking about the weather today.
However, at this time, the metallic-gleaming knife was already close to Ferro's neck, and it looked like the sharp blade was about to cut through the male insect's tender neck.
Ferro's back was completely soaked with cold sweat. After shouting three times without any response from the system, he could only turn his gaze to Alex for help again.
"Alex, do you want to know what your female father will be like in the future? Do you want to know what he will say about you in the end?!"
Ferro gritted his teeth and used words to seduce the female insect.
"I know a lot about you, even about the Saxon family. Don't you want to know why your physique is so similar to Frederick's?!"
The fingertips pressing on Ferro's shoulders applied a little force, but just a second before the tattoo knife was about to cut the male insect's throat, Chu Sicheng's wrist was suddenly grabbed by the insect from behind.
“…”
Chu Sicheng turned his head and his eyes fell on the back of Alex's hand with bulging veins. Then he raised his eyes and smiled at the female insect, but the smile did not seem to reach his eyes.
Chu Sicheng opened his thin lips and looked at Alex and said lightly, "Alex, what do you want to do?"
"Of course I'm stopping you! After all, who would help a bug that could kill them in the future!"
Seeing hope again, Ferro felt that his legs were no longer weak and he had strength again.
He quickly squatted down, first breaking free from Chu Sicheng's grip, and then moved his body to the right, apparently trying to escape from the encirclement of Chu Sicheng and Alex.
However, just when most of his body was finally bathed in light again and was about to regain his freedom, another hand appeared on his shoulder, which had finally relaxed for a moment.
The next moment.
Alex threw him into the corner between the cubicle and the wall like a chicken.
no?
What happened?
Ferro, feeling a little dizzy after being thrown around, even began to wonder if he was hallucinating.
After all, the female insect was shaken to that extent just now, and obviously believed what he said. Even if it was to know the secrets of the Saxon family, he should not let Ryan kill himself at this time!
And just as Ferro thought, Alex did not intend to let Chu Sicheng kill Ferro, because... he planned to do it himself for Chu Sicheng.
The female insect carefully took away the tattoo knife in her hand. Chu Sicheng lowered his eyes slightly, and the next second, a hint of green reflected in his blue-gray eyes.
"Let me do it."
Chu Sicheng heard Alex say, "Be careful not to get your shirt dirty later."
Anyway, his clothes had just been stained by cheap perfume and he didn't intend to keep them, so it didn't matter if they had a few more stains now.
Alex pursed his lips, estimated the distance, and reached out to pull Chu Sicheng back.
"If you move any further back, you might puncture a major artery and cause blood to spurt out easily."
Chu Sicheng raised his eyebrows unconsciously when he heard this.
Filo, who was described by Alex in a light tone, felt like a little piglet that was not cared about by any bugs at this moment.
"no,"
Fei Luo couldn't help but said: "Didn't you listen to what I said just now?"
Alex glanced back at him, his voice indifferent.
"I heard it, so what?"
"so,"
Ferro couldn't understand Alex's train of thought any more.
"So why are you still helping him?"
Is he crazy to help a bug that will kill him in the future by killing another bug that provided him with such important information?!
Alex didn't think he was mentally ill. He just knew that any insect with a little bit of brain and the ability to think would not believe in the so-called, illusory future just because of a few words from other insects.
Even if Ferro was right about his childhood experiences, so what?
He only believed what he saw with his own eyes.
Besides, the male insect's vicious tone when he plotted against him in Frederick's villa that night was still echoing in Alex's mind.
Would such a bug be so kind as to remind me?
Alex didn't believe it at all.
"What if he really kills you in the future?"
"Then wait, and see if that person appears."
Throughout the ages, how many powerful insects have died because of the so-called prophecy, and how many closed loops were only completed after they heard the prophecy and took action.
So, he just needs to know——
"Are you going to kill me tomorrow?" Alex asked.
Chu Sicheng was slightly stunned, then chuckled. He leaned back against the door panel, his whole body shrouded in light, and even his smile seemed to have an unusual tenderness.
"No." The male insect whispered.
"That……"
Alex also smiled, "Our deal is still going on."
Like the male insect, he also has a strong sense of contract.
He will remain loyal until the moment the contract is broken.
Chu Sicheng didn't say anything.
Under the orange light, on the smooth floor, the shadows of insects swayed, and a mechanical sound also sounded in Chu Sicheng's mind.
[Ding! The protagonist's halo progress value increases by 10%.]
