Chapter 390: Uncontrollable
Anno stood behind Sitar, his gaze shifting back and forth between him and Caesar, feeling a headache coming on.
She suddenly felt a little annoyed. What kind of queen insect would be like her, meddling in the affairs between the male queen insect and his retinue?
But she knew that if she didn't intervene, given Caesar's personality, he would definitely cause a huge uproar.
She decided to intervene, but now it's all for naught.
She absolutely has to give Caesar a good beating!
Watching Karina and Caesar fight, she gripped her longsword and was about to leap up when Sitar grabbed her hand.
"Anunu, you are the King Insect, the King of the Zerg." Sita's calm tone carried an undercurrent of supreme authority.
"You can command him, or you can command me."
Sitar grasped her hand holding the knife. "Whether he wants to challenge me or wants to be king, he has to submit. You are his king."
Anno and Sitar exchanged a glance, took a deep breath, and whispered to Caesar, "Caesar, stop!"
Upon hearing her voice, Caesar immediately threw down his sword and stood still.
Karina, however, had no intention of stopping. The moment Caesar stopped, her long sword pierced through his chest.
Caesar grunted, his eyes brightening as he looked at Anno and knelt down before her.
Anno walked up to him, raised her hand above his head, as if to say something, but Caesar lowered his head. "Your Highness, I'm sorry, I've let you down. I couldn't control myself..."
"Is it that you can't control it, or that you don't want to control it?"
Anno looked down at him; his eyelashes trembled slightly, and his expression carried a hint of pain and vulnerability.
Caesar was silent for a moment, then suddenly grabbed her wrist, looked up at her, his eyes filled with stubbornness and determination.
"Your Highness..."
Anno didn't get to hear him finish his next sentence before his body collapsed.
A highlighted message popped up in front of all players:
"Congratulations to player [Erqi] for completing the S-rank quest [Dragon Slayer], and gaining the right to inherit the castle throne and the princess's love."
Anno watched as Caesar vanished in a cloud of light before her, then turned to look at Karina.
She never expected that her second sister would be the one to complete the task.
I have this feeling... a subtle, indescribable feeling.
Karina paused for a moment, then smiled slightly at her.
Karina's teammates were already cheering; with the Overlord BOSS dead, all the players' restrictions were lifted.
Anno watched as all the monsters in the valley logged off simultaneously after Caesar logged off.
It seems that these monster bosses know Caesar. These monster players are definitely not Zerg, and Zerg generally don't have any interaction with other races.
She suddenly felt something was wrong. Caesar was stationed on the front lines, and unlike Mingxiao and Poponia, he didn't attend classes at the academy and needed to communicate with classmates and tutors to complete his studies and missions.
She quickly logged out and took off her holographic glasses.
"Your Highness!"
Several relatives surrounded her and knelt down in front of Anno.
The emergence of a heretic among them was a very serious matter. They were filled with fear and anger, and at the same time, they felt great regret and sorrow for Caesar. Their emotions were very complex.
Although they always say they hate Caesar, they are a family that grew up together. For three hundred years, without any Oomu, they have fought and supported each other to get to where they are today. It is impossible for them not to have any feelings for each other.
But they knew that once they became heretics, Caesar would face certain death.
Anno turned to look at Sitar, who had already logged out of the game. Sitar met Anno's gaze and said, "Contact Caesar."
After he finished speaking, he also contacted other high-ranking family members on the front lines.
Sitar also keenly noticed the clues. Anunu had previously concealed the news that she wanted to differentiate into a male insect king from Caesar, wanting to handle it herself. This was not a big deal to him. Let Caesar differentiate if he wanted to. Let him challenge him if he wanted. In any case, Anunu would always be the first priority in dealing with anything. Her emotions and thoughts were more important to him than anything else.
If Caesar had only differentiated into a male insect king, that wouldn't be considered heresy. But if we consider the birth of a male insect king, Caesar's differentiation wouldn't be surprising; rather, his arrival would be more unexpected.
He is a male insect king egg that existed tens of thousands of years ago. Without Anunu, he might have gradually dissipated his energy. He is a relic of the past.
Therefore, he hoped that Anunu would reassure him and work together to resolve the matter, rather than suppressing it himself. He understood that Anunu was thinking of him and did not want his position as the male insect king to be shaken, but this matter could not be kept secret no matter what.
Putting everything else aside, the love a high-ranking member has for the Ohmu would not stop them here. It would be able to stand beside the Ohmu and resonate with it on a spiritual level, which is more tempting than the throne.
Anno looked at Caesar's image on the personal terminal; the communication was still showing as connecting.
Never before had she felt so anxious during a communication.
Caesar, Caesar, you must accept it.
"Your Highness Sitar!"
The communication with Sitar was quickly established, and Sitar asked in a deep voice, "Where is Caesar?"
He had just finished asking when Anno's call was connected, but before Anno could speak, the call was quickly disconnected again.
Not only her, but Sitar's communications were also bad; the communication screen flickered and distorted a few times before disconnecting.
The scene around Anno began to distort and blur, as if someone had opened a portal next to them.
