Chapter 348 How did it mutate and develop such a strange ability?
“Father, now that you know about this, I will go and make arrangements for the follow-up.”
Michele remained kneeling on the ground with no intention of standing up.
He knew that although Lanetta was happy now, he might accidentally do something to offend him, so staying put was the best course of action.
“Okay, go ahead, and try to handle things well.” Lanetta waved his hand and said, “Also, keep an eye on the Graham family business.”
Michele nodded repeatedly, "Yes, Father."
After saying this, he slowly withdrew from the suffocating bedroom.
He strode quickly through the carpeted corridor, only to catch his breath at the corner.
He can't live like this anymore!
Why would someone cling to a fool like Ranetta and watch helplessly as their male insect becomes a plaything like Timothy?
no!
Absolutely not!
If he hadn't regained his memory, he might have resigned himself to his fate.
But he has already regained his memories and once held the high position of the Insect King. How could he tolerate continuing to live like this?!
He must take the initiative and find a way to return to his former high position.
Michele took a deep breath, looked at the long corridor in front of her, and recalled the bits and pieces of her previous life.
Soon, a name clearly emerged—Hard Thomas.
One of his previous incarnations, a truly refined and wise male insect.
Unlike other pleasure-seeking noble males, Hader was gentle and profound, and always came up with good solutions when he was in trouble.
If his former queen hadn't been so ungrateful in his previous life, they could have been together much sooner!
Unfortunately, the Thomas family is now bankrupt, and their wealth is naturally not what it used to be.
Michael remembered that Had's queen, Aaron, seemed to still be a general in the Second Legion, so Had's position in the nobility remained secure.
If he goes to get to know Had, maybe he can ask him for help to restore their status from their previous life.
As Michele thought of this, a spark of hope rekindled in her eyes.
Suddenly, his personal computer vibrated, and Michael immediately answered it, then saw Acosta lying in the medical pod.
"Where are you?"
Acosta's expression was not good on the other end of the computer. He had not seen Michele since he woke up, and only heard from the servant insect that he had hurriedly left.
A flicker of panic crossed Michele's eyes, but she quickly recovered. "Your Excellency, I am currently at the Lanetta family residence. My father knew you were injured and was very worried about your condition. He specifically asked me to come back and inquire about the situation. I apologize for not being by your side the moment you woke up."
As he spoke, he reached out and pressed his eye, looking very remorseful.
Acosta was initially furious, but when he heard Michele admit her mistake, half of his anger subsided.
"Alright, come back as soon as possible. You're already a bug of the Graham family. Don't run around unless you have to."
Michele, sensing the situation, immediately agreed, "Yes, Your Excellency, I'll be right back."
After turning off the personal terminal, Michael's expression darkened even further.
Although he fell in love with Acosta at first sight when they met in this life, the situation was completely different from what he remembered.
Michele hesitated again.
Could it be because the timing and manner of their meeting were wrong?
If he replicates the process of how he met Had in his previous life, will the result be the same as in his previous life?
He remembered that he had accidentally bumped into Had, who had been poisoned by insects, at a banquet.
At the time, Had was in a state of confusion and in critical condition. It was he who took the initiative to sacrifice himself, using his own body as Had's "antidote," which saved Had's life.
Afterwards, Had was very grateful to him and even offered to marry him as his maid, but he refused.
It was this selfless sacrifice that made Hader unable to forget him, and eventually fell deeply in love with him.
Michele clenched his fist, and a plan quickly took shape in his mind.
If he simply follows the script from his previous life again, finds an opportunity to give him the same drug, and then happens to appear to save Had, he will definitely be moved by him once more!
Now he has a plan, but he doesn't even have the chance to get close to Hard Thomas.
"Buzzing"
Suddenly, Michael's personal computer vibrated again.
He turned on his personal terminal with some irritation, thinking it was Acosta urging him again.
When he saw the message above, he was a little stunned.
The message on the quantum computer was sent by Lanetta.
It was an invitation to the royal engagement ceremony, and Lanetta wanted him to order a suit for him according to the specifications of the banquet.
Yes! The royal engagement party!
As a male member of the Thomas family, Hader would definitely receive an invitation to such a grand event, and he would certainly attend!
The banquet will surely be a mixed bag of people, making it the perfect place for him to carry out his plan!
Michael's heart suddenly raced. Without hesitation, he immediately took out his personal terminal and contacted the insect he had previously bought the attractant from the black market.
This time, he was determined to win!
If he can take down Hader, he can regain the initiative and once again enter the core of high society!
At this moment, in the office of a general at the military headquarters.
The atmosphere in the room was tense. Eli frowned repeatedly, tapping the report on the table absently with his fingers, his expression remaining solemn.
"Major General, what's your opinion on the Graham family matter?"
He initially thought it was just a matter of star beast invasion, but he didn't expect things to be so complicated.
His voice was low and weary. "The residual energy and signs of destruction at the scene are very strange. It's something that no known weapon or star beast could have done."
If there really were such a new type of star beast that could sneak into the Empire silently and make such a commotion, the entire Empire's security defenses would be rendered useless!
Eli rubbed his temples, his face filled with deep worry.
He looked at the silent Lettkar and couldn't help but sigh.
"Do you think... it's because we went too far in the last joint operation to suppress them, which actually caused them to... evolve?"
Otherwise, how did it mutate and develop some kind of evil ability?
Letocal crossed his arms and leaned against the desk. "It's possible for star beasts to mutate into thicker armor, faster legs, or even more insidious hunting habits. But to mutate into something like this... an energy explosion-like ability, it seems..."
As soon as he uttered the word "superpower," Letekar himself paused.
Superpowers?
Currently, the only one in the entire empire who can be associated with "superpowers" is none other than his powerful ruler.
That S-class male insect that can tear through space at will and teleport instantly.
The thought flashed through his mind, and Letekar's brows immediately furrowed.
However, he remained calm and composed, even managing to maintain the same indifferent expression he had just worn.
