"Good girl, take good care of yourself." Feng Qi patted Jiang Zheyu's head.
"Okay." Jiang Zheyu smiled faintly.
"Master, I'll make you something delicious when I get back." Jiang Yi also hugged Jiang Zheyu.
"Hmm." Jiang Zheyu felt a little sad too.
She will never be able to eat delicious food again; she will have to eat those awful-tasting nutritional supplements every day again.
Although the nutritional supplements weren't actually that bad to drink, they just didn't compare to the delicious food.
Jiang Zheyu watched as his three beastmen left.
A sudden emptiness filled her heart.
Pink should be a beautiful and comforting color, but now she feels the room is empty and loneliness washes over her.
Jiang Zheyu looked out the window and could only see a dark sky and black and white buildings that looked cold and emotionless.
F, the desolate planet, is one of the Empire's research bases.
There are no humans living here at all. There is only one research base on the entire planet, and only the research base has orcs.
People inside the research base don't often go out because they frequently encounter insects. The base only patrols and removes insects near the research institute; insects in other parts of the planet haven't been eliminated.
This place looks desolate and lonely.
Jiang Zheyu sighed inwardly.
Indeed, it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to simplicity.
She needs to quickly heal the mentally damaged beastmen here so she can return to the Imperial Capital Star as soon as possible.
She wants to go back to her comfort zone.
Oh dear, this place is too dangerous, and there are so many bugs.
It's really not suitable for her.
"Host, you already have 5s of mental power, which is enough to kill a lot of insects." The system's voice suddenly appeared in Jiang Zheyu's ears.
Jiang Zheyu was living a very happy life and had almost forgotten about the system. After all, she no longer needed to do the daily evolution tasks, and she hadn't spoken to the system in a long time.
Jiang Zheyu was caught off guard when the system suddenly spoke.
"System, so you're still here." Jiang Zheyu said quietly.
"Host, you're already a female with 5S mental strength, and with continued healing and evolution, breaking through to 10S mental strength won't be a problem," the system encouraged. "Go to the battlefield, crush the Zerg! Tear them apart, and become the strongest fighter on the surface!"
Jiang Zheyu thought of that disgusting worm and said silently, "System, I'm not good enough. You should have bound me to someone with the determination to conquer the world, instead of someone like me who only cares about making ends meet."
Because of the departure of the beastman.
Jiang Zheyu felt a little sad, and the gloomy, gray colors outside, along with the cold black and white buildings, made her feel even more upset.
"Host, you've had too comfortable a time these past three months, and you've become too dependent on your beastmen. They're going to spoil you!" the system said quietly. "You're already at 5s mental strength. Wouldn't it be great to slaughter the Zerg, contribute to interstellar space, and leave your mark on interstellar history?"
"I'm working hard to improve my mental strength, just so I can lie down and live a shameless and carefree life with my beast husband, right?" Jiang Zheyu sat cross-legged on the bed, resting his chin on his hands.
The orc sent by the Empire to protect her didn't seem like someone to mess with, and he also seemed to have a bad temper.
Jiang Zheyu felt that he was probably going to suffer some hardships here.
"If you wipe out all the Zerg, your beastmen won't have to go to the battlefield anymore, and you won't have to worry about them being killed by the Zerg. They can lie in bed with you every day," the system suggested.
Jiang Zheyu listened to this and seemed to take it to heart.
She wasn't interested in eliminating the Zerg, but the thought of her beastmen dying at their hands made Jiang Zheyu a little uneasy.
"Can the Zerg really be completely eradicated?" Jiang Zheyu asked the system. "The interstellar space has been around for over 1,000 years, and we still haven't been able to completely eliminate the Zerg. Every time we try to eliminate them, they come back after a few hundred years. These insects are very prolific."
"Just kill the queen insect," the system said. "A new queen insect may be born in a few hundred years, but in the meantime, you can live a peaceful and happy life for a few hundred years. Wouldn't that be better? Those orcs wouldn't have to be stuck in the negative two zones every day, dying in droves."
Jiang Zheyu recalled that in the novel, there was a major crisis: the annihilation of the Zerg. After the Zerg Queen was destroyed, the novel would end.
However, Jiang Zheyu felt that this was a plot hole left by the author because it didn't explain whether the female lead actually developed a potion to cure mental power, directly defeated the Zerg, brought peace to the world, and then it just ended there.
It seems that Si Yu wanted to stand openly by the female lead's side, so he led his subordinates to kill the insect queen, bringing a century of peace to the interstellar people. Then he changed his appearance and got together with the female lead.
All his men died, and only Si Yu survived.
Will Si Yu still go and kill the Insect Queen? That's hard to say.
Jiang Zheyu didn't know how Si Yu was doing.
Si Yu didn't cause any trouble during those three months. Perhaps Si Yu liked her, but it wasn't as unforgettable as the love for the female lead in a novel.
After all, the love-hate relationship between Si Yu and the female lead in the novel is naturally very unforgettable.
Jiang Zheyu got together with him without any setbacks; perhaps things were too easy and she didn't love him that much.
Jiang Zheyu didn't care.
“System, you’re right. Killing the queen insect will give interstellar space a century of respite, but that goal is still too far away for me right now.” Jiang Zheyu sighed. “Let’s start by killing the first insect.”
She had seen insects that close last time, and although she was startled and didn't react in time, she would definitely be mentally prepared the next time she saw an insect!
Meanwhile, the orcs returned to report to Shan Xun.
"Single team, the female has been settled." The orc still felt a burning desire when he recalled the beautiful female, but he knew that the orcs in Zone 1 and Zone 2 would never be able to return to Zone 1 and would only die here forever. He dared not have too many thoughts about the female, lest he delay her.
"Understood." Shan Xun nimbly climbed up from the bottom of the pit.
He walked forward, then stopped after a few steps and asked, "What does she think of that house?"
“The female said she likes it,” the orc replied.
“Okay.” Shan Xun’s deep purple eyes flashed, then he continued walking forward with a wild expression. “Let’s go back to chopping bugs.”
"Yes." The orc understood; the single team must have discovered where the remaining insects were hiding.
A group of people followed closely behind.
