Xi Yujin did not panic after hearing this. He had faced death several times, and he had more confidence in life and death. The universe was so vast, there must be someone who could solve the problem. Moreover, the Zerg Queen had a long life span, so perhaps the word "long term" was longer than a thousand years. He did not need to worry.
He wrote and drew on the paper, probably finishing the manuscript for the Zerg Queen.
He looked up and said to Ubit, "I need a translator, his name is Ganuo..."
The huge queen suddenly scratched the ground restlessly, and the ground shook instantly. Xi Yujin quickly floated up holding the manuscript. In the distance, where the queen's front feet stepped, there was a large sunken pit. Its huge head was buried in the clouds, swinging around without any reason, and the piercing scream pierced the eardrum:
“Ahhhhh—”
The air became sticky, and the five-pointed glands on its upper body suddenly expanded several times, spraying out corrosive colloid. The Zerg loaded up their armor and flew up, telling each other via encrypted radio waves:
——Emergency! My mother's mental confusion is getting worse and she's going crazy!
"In the past, there would always be a period of calm after mother came back from the black hole..." Bai Ying was worriedly organizing the low-level Zerg to retreat. "Why did the period of chaos come so quickly this time? Is it really impossible to save mother?"
"There must be some external factor that caused the mother's mental confusion to worsen."
another Zerg yelled.
"Mother took off!!"
The colloid like waterfalls almost made the air here airless. When the queen was normal, she was a very worried mother, and when she was crazy, she was a terrifying cosmic psychopath.
The colloid gradually glowed with a golden glow, a sign of a chemical reaction. Golden dragonflies emerged from the colloid, like flowing gold.
Ubit rose up into the wind, its figure like a waving battle flag.
Many Zergs followed closely behind. At this time, the mother could no longer hear anything and could only guide it to the black hole to ease the chaos.
Some high-level Zergs are ready to fall into the black hole together. Reducing the number of high-level Zergs is an effective way to alleviate the queen's mental confusion, so there are only more than 10,000 high-level Zergs left.
No one noticed that a spaceship took off from the cave-shaped prison. Xi Yujin piloted the Tide Flat and tried to move forward in the wind current.
The sudden onset of Eubitux may be induced by external factors.
The Queen bears the mental confusion of all her children, so she can no longer bear the newborn free thoughts.
And Ganuo...is also the queen's child.
Gano is not mentally confused, and has the mind to break through the shackles of genes. Gano is likely the root cause of the Queen's illness.
No matter what, Xi Yujin must go and take a look.
He passed by the interrogation room. The ceiling of this place had been lifted up by the Queen's actions. Xi Yujin saw the giant interrogation mastermind, and with a determined heart, he controlled the steering wheel and dived down to the vicinity of the mastermind.
"You should be able to understand my novels, with such a big head..."
Xi Yujin stuffed all the manuscripts in, including "The Duke of Dragonfly" and the joke collection, and sure enough, he saw the mastermind chewing them.
"I'll give it to the Queen if I get a chance. It would be even better if I could translate it!"
Xi Yujin hurriedly drove the Chaoping to catch up with the team.
…
“Ahhhhhh!”
The screams reached the hearts of every Zerg, making them worried and guilty.
"Mother's confusion worsens!"
"Mother is coming right here!"
Inside the nest palace, all high-level Zergs were on high alert. The Zergs at the headquarters immediately ordered the low-level Zergs to retreat, and at the same time counted the high-level Zergs that were about to fall into the black hole together, all for their mother.
The insects in the Planting Bureau quickly moved in precious plants that could calm the nerves. Everyone took action immediately.
Only Ganuo stood there, looking out of place, with one hand stroking the glass coffin.
Gano thought back to the past.
He had no concept of the term "childhood". It seemed that as soon as he could remember, he had followed the rules to enter the military academy and learn all kinds of knowledge that this class should know. The soldiers who entered the school with him were all called "Ga".
He called himself "Jia" and called his companions "Jia" as well. There was no need to distinguish between them, as they had the same mind. In the same name, there was only the collective, not the individual.
But in the subsequent exams, his individual differences gradually emerged. He was more agile than other soldiers and more efficient in analyzing pictures. He was qualified for a privilege day with excellent results.
The authority day is guided by the queen herself, but low-level warriors like "Gar" are not qualified to meet the queen.
Ganuo lay down in the flower bud and had a comfortable sleep, which made his mind clearer. From then on, he had a new name, "Ganuo".
He graduated from the military academy and his first assigned position was a scout. Military academies mostly use egg brains for assessments, and this was the first time he touched real armor. It should have felt the same as in the egg brain, but he just felt inexplicably comfortable and wanted to repeat the action. Later he learned that this feeling was called happiness.
He was stationed at the Zerg border, guarding a huge telescope, observing the universe day by day, always alert to any foreign invasion.
The Zerg territory was surrounded by cosmic storms, and because there was a huge black hole in the center, stars had to travel at super-high speeds to avoid being swallowed by the black hole. This caused his observations to always be pitch black, and the dim light points from the universe were fleeting. He felt the loneliness of life and couldn't help but wonder what was outside the universe. Would it be all war like what was shown in the egg brain? Would there be plants? Would it be all blue sky and white clouds?
Whenever he thought of this, his heart would beat unnaturally, and the hot blood pumping out would feel numb. He didn't understand that this feeling was called anticipation, and he just thought he was abnormal.
He patrolled along a fixed route, but for some reason he wanted to take another route. Why didn't other soldiers want to take another route? Didn't they want to see other scenery?
Or is it that the scenery in the world is the same, and there is no point in taking another path...
Ganuo stared at the unchanged window in a daze. Day after day, the universe remained unchanged.
The tiny candle of his mind was almost extinguished. Perhaps in an attempt to retain him, the window in front of him suddenly underwent a dramatic change.
"There is matter collapsing..."
Gano consulted the manual.
"Calculating the fluctuations, it turns out that stars are being hatched... at an abnormally fast speed."
If there is a dense cloud of dust and gas, it is possible for a star to precipitate. But here is the edge of a black hole, and the extremely strong gravity is like a drum washing machine, constantly throwing away matter, and the gas cloud has no possibility of precipitation. How can a new star appear here?
Ganuo enlarged the window, and the wall-high window showed the appearance of the star "egg" without blind spots. It was reacting violently, standing firm in the storm, and only the universe knew that a catalyst produced in another universe was pulled out from there.
The star shrank in an instant, condensing into a black star, and then the extremely high light and heat expanded violently. In a few tenths of a femtosecond, it had expanded hundreds of times. The dazzling light shot out like an arrow, and the surrounding dust was attracted by its gravity, either becoming it or becoming its vassal. The reaction of the central star did not stop, it was still expanding rapidly, and it wanted to become the brightest star in this dark universe.
Ganodun stood in front of the window, an unprecedented sense of shock climbed over his body, as if someone had hit him on the head with a stick, and things that he had not figured out before suddenly appeared in front of him.
This is the universe!
This is an incredibly vast universe!
Farther out there, countless stars are being born just like this!
Gano's heart was suddenly pierced with pain. He felt the urge to cry, and for the first time he uttered words that had nothing to do with war:
"So...beautiful..."
It was time for patrol. Ganuo followed his instinct to patrol the watchtower, but his mind was full of the shadow of the new star. His brain ached slightly, and many thoughts surged up. He walked on the ground, as if walking in the abyss.
When he came to his senses, he was stopped by many guards.
"Scout, your patrol route is wrong. This is a level three violation. Please follow me for disciplinary education."
Ganuo subconsciously took a few steps back.
His heart was beating like a drum, and his whole body suddenly reacted in an unprecedented way - he ran away!
He rushed forward, and all the combat knowledge he had learned in his life suddenly merged in his mind. He was still a little unfamiliar when he used it for the first time, but by the second time, he had learned to strike first.
He broke through the encirclement and directly knocked down the annoying high-level Zerg to the ground. He snatched the armor that he had never dared to dream of before!
He could be the most heroic warrior, and his grades in the military academy were also the best, so why didn't he deserve the king-level armor? But he didn't have this worry anymore, because he got it through his own efforts.
Relying solely on his courage, Ganuo broke through the atmosphere and stumbled into the universe before any of the soldiers could react.
The situation of being in a state of being neither up nor down made him panic, but he calmed down immediately. Many pursuers were flying behind him, and he had to hurry up and escape. No matter where the final goal was, as long as he escaped, it would be fine!
But Gano soon encountered a second problem. The cosmic storm was too terrible. He was not skilled in driving the armor and was blown over several times. He rolled several times in space before he came to a stop. The cosmic storm became an insurmountable wall for him.
Ganuo thought of the expanding star.
That star can settle down in the storm, at least there is peace around it, and perhaps it can become a breakthrough.
Gano quickly found the direction of the star. There was no way to retreat behind him. He drove the armor and drove at full speed to crash into it! The pursuers behind him stopped, wondering why this warrior suddenly accelerated to suicide.
A tiny black dot rapidly crashed into the expanding star, so dim that it was almost invisible, like a feather thrown into the sea, unable to stir up any waves.
But fate is just so coincidental.
Something was knocked away by Gano.
The stellar "egg" stopped reacting.
The catalyst that was so hard to get was knocked away!
Ganuo thought he was about to embrace the sea of fire, but the expected high temperature did not come. He opened his eyes and found that he had accidentally crashed into a high-speed wormhole. He was thrown back and forth like he was on a roller coaster. He seemed to have spent a long life in the wormhole. Suddenly, his whole body felt light, and the whole worm was vomited into a desolate space area.
After a while, he realized that he was somewhere else and murmured:
"Where is this..."
In the Zerg airspace, Haiying failed in his pursuit and fished out a sleeping body frozen in ice. Although he was surprised that a creature could appear here, he still took it back as a servant.
"He looks so much like us, maybe Mother will like him."
At the edge of the universe, a half-finished small star suddenly appeared. Such a small mass is almost too dim to be seen in the star world, and can only be used to warm a fire or to bask plants in the sun. He slowly woke up, turned three times in a daze, and asked his soul:
"Where are my hands?"
In a galaxy at the edge of the universe, Ganuo wandered freely in the space. After the initial joy passed, only hesitation, confusion, and deep self-blame remained.
He didn't know what to do or where to go. All the creatures he met were afraid of him. Should he have escaped? He actually did such a terrible thing - he was a Zerg deserter!
Gano could not find a place to rest, so he could only curl up and sleep in space. Every day when he woke up, he had to rescan the star map to see where he was taken by the universe. He wandered aimlessly, like a meaningless wind.
One day he discovered that his greatsword was missing, and he finally found the motivation to sail - he wanted to find his weapon, because it was an accessory to the armor he had stolen with great difficulty.
So he unconsciously wiped out the star pirates, as if he had saved a star with a soul.
After retrieving his weapon, Gano fell into confusion again.
He has the inescapable mark of the Zerg, and all creatures avoid him. His mind is as blank as a sheet of paper, and he cannot find any meaning in his existence. He can no longer return to his hometown, and there is no trace of the future. Where should he go?
His armor was running out of energy, so he had to land in the port system, which caused great panic. He pretended not to care, tried to peek at how other creatures wrote resumes, clumsily imitated an overly long job resume, and then waited anxiously. Would there be any creature willing to communicate with him? Could he really see the wider universe?
The resumes around him changed one after another, and tourists came in droves, but no creature stopped for him.
Ganuo's heart gradually sank to the bottom. It seemed that he shouldn't have expected that the scenery outside the universe had not changed much.
Until a shining creature came up to him and said to him:
"Welcome to my Tide Flat, my name is -
Embers, the embers of the blue star."
Then, he had it all.
…
Gano remembered everything.
The star that I met when I first escaped from my hometown, the star that I saved at the edge of the universe, the ember from the blue star, and the S-level servant in front of me, Xi Yujin, are all the same soul!
Maybe there is no Blue Star at all, it’s all just made up by Ember!
And now, a half-finished star, separated from the human body for too long, may cause the soul to dissipate...
His mind was churning wildly, searching for the final answer in the billions of databases he had viewed.
The sky above the Nest Palace was suddenly covered with a layer of sticky colloid, and the stars in the distance lit up. The next second, they fell to the ground like a flood, and a rumbling sound exploded on the surface of the planet. There seemed to be countless golden dragonflies swimming in the colloid. Then the golden dragonflies gradually faded, revealing the mountain-like body of the Zerg Queen.
Eubit's head drooped from the clouds, its petal-like eyes staring at the tiny Gano, its front paws nailed hard into the ground, causing the rocks to vibrate. It was tortured by the headache caused by mental confusion and was furious, wishing to destroy everything in front of it immediately.
The high-level Zergs around all bowed their heads devoutly, with their hands clasped in front of their chests, like praying people.
Gano looked up at the giant creature in front of him and felt that it was unfamiliar. If he had been chasing after the Eubit bug, he would have died without a burial place.
Eubit has a splitting headache and is incapable of maternal love. It is a mother, but also a beast without morals, and only wants to destroy the source of its mental disorder.
It could feel that this child had the same blood as itself, and perhaps this calmed it down a little. It growled and questioned, with the small scissors in its jaws fully opened, as if it was going to eat Gano in the next second:
"You—are—a—messy?"
"Yes."
Kano answered without any fear.
He looked at Xi Yujin's sleeping body, and his mind became dazed again. At this moment, Youbit's headache continued to worsen.
All the Zerg saw a terrible fact. Even if it was not his own will, Gano was killing his mother! Instantly, the advanced Zerg weapons were unsheathed, waiting for a moment to solve the root of the problem.
"Don't—think—anymore—"
Ubito's words were intermittent.
Ganuo looked at the sleeping Xi Yujin again, and the belated fear overwhelmed him.
He used the blade hidden in his palm to cut the vines that bound him, then removed all the weapons on his body and faced the queen who had lost her mind alone. He already knew that the queen was responsible for his mental confusion, so if his mind was a little freer, the queen's brain would collapse. A free child is poison to his mother.
But this is not what he is pursuing.
He said to Ubito, his voice trembling:
"I hope to be able to return the soul of this S-rank servant to his original body."
He clasped his hands together and placed them in front of him, like a devout prayer. At this moment, all the resentment and grievances in the Zerg territory disappeared, he smoothed his edges and lowered his head to the queen.
"Mother, I swear as your loyal warrior..."
He knew that the queen loved her children very much, and the Zerg queen was the most sophisticated engineer in the universe, and she must have a way to restore Emberno to normal. He could use this, and he could give everything.
He promised Youbit: "I am willing to give up..."
It became increasingly difficult for him to speak, and he lowered his head lower and lower, not only because of the pressure from the queen, but also because he was terrified. For the first time, he realized the meaning of death. His thoughts were about to stop, and there was no future for Emberno. He was overwhelmed by a strong sense of reluctance and sadness. He had nothing to begin with, and now he was going to lose even the most precious thing.
He wondered if there was a third way, but the queen's sword was hanging over his head, and Ganuo felt that he had to give up something today. He was probably not the bravest warrior, and even his last promise was spoken incoherently.
Gano took a deep breath and finished speaking in one breath:
"Mother, I am willing to give up the freedom I have, as long as you let him live."
…
"call--"
"call……"
The air blown by Ubit hit Ganuo's face and ruffled his hair. The surroundings were quiet, except for the violent and terrible beating of the queen's heart.
Gradually, Ubito distanced himself from Ganuo.
The restless and angry queen suddenly seemed to have tasted something delicious, and her mood changed very quickly. Her hard glands suddenly softened, and the hair on her upper body swayed in the wind. She pulled out her front paws and pressed them lightly on the ground, which meant that she was able to control the strength and her spirit was returning to normal.
"My dear child, you are so special that you can actually think. If you were not my child, I really want to eat you." Youbit's voice became as lazy as before.
"You will certainly pay dearly for causing me such pain."
It glanced at Xi Yujin, who was coming on the Tide Flat in the distance, and suddenly came up with a brilliant idea:
"So, I decided to capture you and marry you."
The author has something to say:
*Detailed Explanation of Embers*
Initial state: a cloud of dust, a human being plucked from another universe
Highest form: Complete star state, can freely transform into human
Semi-finished form: Semi-finished star (can be converted into diamond) + sleeping human form
**
Why can humans + dust become stars? I like what a reader said, because when people die, they become stars~
Xi Yujin's star body has nothing to do with the sun. It has nothing to do with the earth. The author usually does not give the protagonist a very lofty identity. He is just a soul that came to this universe by accident.
But there may be a cosmic consciousness that is saying, "There's a bug! My two strongest races are finished, and cosmic literature is finished too! Let's restart this game! Eh? What is this? The soul of the plane crash next door, hehe, grab one. What? Was it knocked away? Oh, it's okay, it's back again."
