Chapter 150: Mark
"Where's Anunu?!"
The subordinate was a low-ranking member, kneeling on the ground and not daring to look at the two emperors sitting above. He forced himself to say, "Just now, the Vanguard Lord opened a spatial gate and took His Highness to Beihe."
Sevier asked anxiously, "How many people did she bring?"
"Just... Lord Vanguard and the other seven."
"Why did you only bring so few people?"
Sevier immediately tried to contact Caesar and the others, but the quantum computer was unable to reach them.
Since they declared war on the Northern River, the Northern River Skynet has severed the Zerg's network domain. The Zerg are not particularly good at this. If they were on the front lines and close by, they could use their unique consciousness network to communicate. But when separated by distant star systems, the consciousness network becomes ineffective.
Augustus reassured Sevier, "With Caesar and the others here, Anunu will be fine. They are all high-ranking members of the household, comparable to a legion."
Sevier roared, "That's not enough!"
Just as they were getting anxious, a spatial portal suddenly appeared at the palace entrance. The Zerg members felt a strong energy fluctuation and became alert. This was not one of their Zerg.
Augustus's expression shifted, and he looked towards the outside of the hall.
A tall figure led a slender figure into the hall, followed by a man with black hair and golden eyes.
Augustus and Sevier exchanged a glance. "It's Cangmiao."
As the Zerg horde watched the three approaching figures, they instinctively made way for them. These two were the King and Queen of the Styx River, their allies.
Cangmiao exuded an aura no weaker than that of Seville and the others, causing the insectoids to become agitated and their auras to become disordered.
"Put it away."
The girl's soft voice rang out in the hall. Cangmiao turned to look at her and withdrew the oppressive aura emanating from him.
Anaya squeezed his palm. "That's right."
Cangmiao's large hand enveloped her hand, his fingers sliding across the back of her hand.
Anaya pursed her lips slightly and placed her other hand on his hand to stop his little movements.
Her gaze swept across the hall, taking in the insectoid race. She noticed that most of the insectoids were humanoid, but they still displayed some insectoid forms. Indeed, as Cangmiao had said, each insectoid's form was different.
However, they are not as terrifying as outsiders say. In human form, they are not much different from other races, but rather superior. They are very tall and have beautiful faces, though perhaps in line with the characteristics of the insectoid race, they all have a more wild appearance. Combined with their height and size, they are very imposing.
Anaya was amazed. No wonder so many star systems were wary of the Zerg. This race was indeed strong, not only in appearance, but also in the energy she sensed from them. It was extremely powerful, many times stronger than the energy she felt around the Sacred Tree.
Where is Anunu?
Anaya whispered to Cangmiao.
She looked around but didn't see any Zerg that matched her image of Anunu.
Cangmiao said, "She's not here anymore."
Anaya was slightly taken aback. Not here? What does that mean? Didn't Anunu just return to the Zerg not long ago?
"It seems I've come at the wrong time."
Cangmiao stood at the very front of the hall, looking at Augsis and Sevier, who had already stepped down from the throne.
He could clearly sense their anxiety, and he knew without a doubt that it was because of their Anunu.
Augsis hurriedly said, "No, you've come at the right time. We need to borrow your abilities, my lord."
Upon hearing this, Anaiya immediately looked at Hibia behind her. His own ability was spatial ability, and he also inherited the Abyss ability from his predecessor.
However, ever since he almost got into serious trouble using the Abyss last time, Anaya has forbidden him from using this ability. It's unclear which ability these two Zerg rulers want to borrow from him.
Cangmiao said, "Anunu ran away? What a pity, my queen still wants to see her."
Sevier didn't waste any more words with him. "Anunu has taken her retinue to the North River. We need to open a portal to find her."
"Beihe?"
Hibia stepped forward and said to them, "They can't go to the North River system. The North River system has activated a very powerful shield. No space portal can open to their system. At most, they can only reach the front line."
In other words, their Anunu has most likely gone to the front lines.
Sevie immediately contacted the Zerg followers at the front lines, and they quickly replied that they had not yet sensed the consciousness of Anunu and Caesar.
How could that be?
Sevier and Augustis were both extremely anxious.
Caesar and his men were Anunu's retinue, and Anunu's words came first; they could not refuse her requests.
So even though Sevier and Augsis had instructed them to keep a close eye on Anunu and not let her leave the main planet at this time, if Anunu wanted to leave, they still had no choice but to obey her.
Seeing their anxious expressions, Cangmiao said, "Since she has high-ranking relatives by her side, there's no need to panic."
The abilities of the high-ranking members around the King Worm are comparable to those of his lords. If Anunu has such powerful members around him and something still happens, then these members are disgracing the reputation of the Zerg.
Seeing the two Queen Insects' anxious and worried expressions, Anaya comforted them, saying, "Don't worry, we'll have Hibia open a portal for you, and we'll definitely be able to find Anunu."
As soon as she spoke, both Augsis and Sevier looked at her simultaneously, then leaned in to sniff her. "Hmm?"
Both of them were so tall and imposing, and their aura of authority was so oppressive that Anaiya couldn't help but back away from their movements. Cangmiao pulled her into his arms.
Sevier looked at Anaya with surprise, "Little Holy Spirit, how come you have my Anunu's aura on you?"
"ah?"
Anaya was completely confused after hearing this and looked up at Cangmiao.
After pondering for a while, Cangmiao asked Sevier, "Where did you say you found Anunu?"
Seville: "The Northern Galaxy."
Cangmiao: "Has she been anywhere else?"
Intelligent people don't need to beat around the bush. As soon as Cangmiao said that, Augsis and Seville understood. They looked at Anaya and said, "Before she was taken back by the North River System, she was stranded on a planet called Earth."
Anaya was startled and looked at them abruptly.
Cangmiao gently stroked Anaya's back and looked at her, saying, "It seems that my queen and your Anunu have some connection."
Many images flashed through Anaya's mind, but she couldn't quite grasp any of them. She hurriedly asked Sevier and the others, "Did your Anunu also live on Earth?"
Augustus and Severus remained silent. Could that be called life? It was suffering.
They didn't know what connection Anaya would have with their Anunu. Although they had seen Anunu's memories, they hadn't seen all of them, and many of the faces in those memories were blurry.
What they saw more often were the painful, unforgettable memories that Anunu couldn't let go of.
Anaya couldn't help but ask them again, "Do you have any pictures of Anunu? I want to see what she looks like; maybe I really do know her."
Augsis said, "For Anunu to leave her scent on you, you must be someone she likes and trusts."
The Zerg are generally very hostile to outsiders, and it is not easy to get them to like someone from another race. Whenever a Zerg person meets someone they like, they will mark that person with their aura and try to make them into family.
This is how the Zerg treat their friends and express affection.
Sevier grabbed Anya's hand, and with a flick of her spine whip, a Zerg mark appeared on her hand.
When Cangmiao saw the mark, a dark glint flashed in his eyes. "You Zerg really like marking things."
Those words sounded incredibly jealous to Anaya.
She glanced at him, "Seriously? You're even jealous of this?"
Cangmiao gently pinched her waist without making a sound, pulling her into his arms with a possessive air.
After confirming that the little Holy Spirit was connected to Anunu, Sevier took an oval-shaped pendant from her neck, inside which was a photograph of Anunu.
"This is my Anunu."
Anaya took the pendant box from Sevier, and when she saw the photo inside, she exclaimed in surprise, "Nono?!"
The girl in the photo who is so beautiful is none other than Anno, her good friend whom she met when she went to the West End.
Nono is actually Anunu?!
