Chapter 151 The sky is about to collapse!
"What do you mean by mocking you? I don't understand what you meant by what you just said." Simon's brows furrowed immediately, and his expression became more serious.
Is he just bored and has nothing better to do?
Why laugh at him now?
He was planning to get some intelligence from him, so he didn't have time to laugh at him.
Roronoa looked completely incredulous, his gaze fixed on Simon. "Don't you know? That damned male has escaped, and he even killed my female!"
“How is this possible?” Simon asked in disbelief.
If it were a female insect, he could accept what Roronoa had just said.
But he was talking about male insects!
Doesn't he know what kind of physical condition the male insect has?
A female insect can easily crush a male insect with just one finger.
How could he possibly kill a female insect and escape?
Especially at the headquarters of the Roronoa Pirates, let alone a male insect, even an A-grade female insect would find it very difficult to escape from the pirates' headquarters alone.
Therefore, what Roronoa just said was simply unbelievable to Simon!
Roronoa was already furious about losing a capable female insect helper.
Seeing Simon's distrustful look, he flew into a rage. "If you don't trust me at all, what's the point of our cooperation? Let's just cut ties completely!"
Simon saw that Roronoa's angry expression didn't seem fake, so for now he could only pretend to believe him.
“Roronoa, we’re in this together now, we have to stick together.” Simon said this, but his eyes were always secretly fixed on Roronoa.
Seeing that he was still sulking, Simon continued, "Did you see our Second Legion's elite squad before? They should have been there after you released the modified star beast..."
Roronoa couldn't help but roll his eyes. "Your so-called elite squad has so many bugs, yet they can't even handle one! Ha! That Letekar can manage to deal with them while simultaneously arguing with my personal terminal!"
If Letkar hadn't been a major general in the First Legion, he would have gone straight to the Empire to steal the insects no matter what.
What a pity.
Unless they defect, Imperial major generals would never associate with space pirates.
“Letkar is indeed very strong. After all, he is one of the few S-class female insects in the Legion. Being able to fight against several opponents is indeed impressive. However… no matter how strong he is, this is the limit.”
Simon breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Roronoa say that.
Since insects saw them appear together, their previous plan would have succeeded as long as Letekar did not return from the battlefield.
Although he was also reluctant to part with the elite team he had assembled, being able to eliminate Eli's right-hand men and severely damage the royal family was a great achievement.
It will be several years before the next batch of elite squads of insects can be completed.
This incident can be described as killing a thousand enemies while losing eight hundred of your own.
However, his elite squad will only need a few years to recover and find new female soldiers to replace the previous ones.
However, Eli probably won't be so lucky.
After all, the First Legion isn't always so lucky as to find an S-class female soldier.
Especially someone like Letecar, an S-class killing machine with both exceptional intelligence and combat prowess!
Looking at Simon's smug face, Roronoa couldn't help but sneer, "Are you so sure that those few bugs under your command can take down Letecar?"
He thought that the female insect might actually come back alive from the battlefield.
Because when he and Letekar were using the quantum computer, his expression was too calm and composed.
It was as if... he completely disregarded Simon's elite squad.
Simon's brows furrowed instantly; he seemed to dislike Roronoa's way of boosting others' morale while diminishing his own.
"My subordinates are all elites among elites! And there are several elites in total. Are they really inferior to an S-class female insect?"
He couldn't help but sneer.
To better control this elite squad, he even had them marry two male insects from the Thomas family at the same time.
Before they went into battle, Simon even had the males in his house repair their mental sea.
He was naturally more confident in dealing with someone like Letekar, whose spiritual sea was severely damaged.
However, Simon would never tell a bug like Roronoa about these things.
Roronoa shrugged noncommittally. "Then I wish you... a resounding victory?"
Although he harbored deep resentment towards Lanetta's female soldiers, Letecar truly impressed him, so he didn't mind giving him a slightly higher opinion of him.
He really couldn't be bothered to argue with Simon, who used such underhanded tactics.
Simon knew that there was no point in talking to someone he didn't get along with, so he simply said a few more words to Roronoa and then turned off the quantum computer.
He was now eager to see Eli's panicked expression.
With his younger brother and his most capable henchman both missing at the same time, he must be exhausted right now.
Haha, trying to fight him? You're still too green!
What Simon didn't know was that Tan Chi had already contacted Eli.
"Are you sure you're back in the Empire now?" Eli clearly didn't quite believe what Tan Chi was saying.
He can still remember how he felt when he heard that he and Kano had been kidnapped!
He felt like the sky was falling!
After all, Tan Chi was the only male insect in their royal family.
If something goes wrong at this critical juncture, he will have no face to see his father-in-law!
Not to mention that the Empire's male insect was kidnapped by a pirate group that secretly infiltrated the Empire!
That would be a complete disgrace to their royal family!
Fortunately, Kano said that Tan Chi had left voluntarily and even sent them a live video. Otherwise, he would have given up on the three-army encirclement and suppression and directly led the three legions to encircle and suppress the Roronoa Star Pirates!
Tan Chi also knew that this incident must have terrified Eli.
He hurriedly circled around him with his personal terminal before saying, "Letekar and I have returned to our lodgings. Letekar is currently asleep due to exhaustion. We'll probably be able to contact you after he wakes up."
Although he didn't know when Lettkar would wake up, he needed to rehearse his story with his wife before she could talk to Eli about the incident alone.
Otherwise, if his wife makes an honest statement, he might have to go save the world.
Eli frowned slightly, but still spoke gently, "Since you're all safe and sound, stay home. Until I get back, stay in the house and don't go anywhere, understand?"
