Chapter 90 Dance
Soon, Lins paid the price for his carelessness.
Along with the huge chewing sound of the white-fronted tall spider, more and more experimental subjects gathered.
They didn't dare to appear in the lighted area, but the red eyes gathered at the edges lit up like dense sparks.
"Hey, I want to eat beef jerky."
At the beginning, Lins came with the intention of bombing Chepa Island.
Of course, the more important reason was to gain Principal Bai's trust. If that old man didn't install positioning equipment on the military aircraft, he wouldn't trust Lin.
But now, he didn't really want to destroy this place.
These subjects did nothing wrong.
They are innocent products.
not to mention……
Lins looked through the undeleted records and found that some of the experimental subjects were not transformed from insect eggs, but children or even young female insects.
Some of them still retain their sanity.
It's just that years of isolation from the world have left their IQ at the level of children.
The white-fronted tall-legged spider, which he had ridiculed, had an IQ that was already among the best.
Two sticks of beef jerky and a grilled squid, it has completely surrendered to Lins.
But its number is quite interesting, A250.
It remembered Ashley because its number was very close to Ashley's.
"Will you come back?"
A250 followed Lins closely. It was very big, with its eight legs standing more than four meters tall, so of course it couldn't see where Lins was.
Fortunately, it could sense the unique rhythm of Lins's movements and could tell where he was.
Behind it, there were dozens of huge spider-shaped experimental subjects following closely.
"Yes." Lins patted its legs. "Stay away from me. It smells fishy."
"Hmm!" Lins didn't have this attitude when it went down to catch fish for him just now.
"Act well." Lins reminded A250.
"good!"
It let out a sharp cry, and the spider-shaped experimental subject behind it also made a terrifying sound.
Lins tore his clothes and ran quickly towards the military aircraft.
Not far away, swarms of spiders were like an overwhelming army, sweeping towards him in a mighty force.
And Ashley stood alone behind him, like a sharp knife.
——
"There's no heart." Lins went to report, his tone not good: "Chepa Island is simply hell! I almost died in there!"
"That's why I gave you a weapon, kid." Principal Bai comforted him, "Ashley is the most loyal knife."
"You're spying on me?"
"If I wanted to spy on you, I wouldn't tell you. Relax, it's the aircraft's recorder."
"What are you going to do next?" Lins asked, his fingertips tapping on the table subconsciously, much more anxious than when they met last time. "It should happen soon!"
Principal Bai regretted not getting Sandy's heart, but he had already made another plan.
"Believe in the future you see, we will find a way."
Principal Bai spoke to comfort him again, his sparkling eyes hidden behind his drooping eyelids.
——
"Lins, my coming-of-age ceremony is about to begin, you must come!"
On this day, Lins received a video call from Lightan.
"I told you to contact me when you return to the main planet! Did you forget?"
In the video, Lightan pouted, and his sky-blue eyes were full of grievance.
"How could that be?" Lins smiled helplessly. "I'm on Hofuka. What gift do you want?"
"Hoover? What are you doing there?"
“It’s a holiday internship.”
"Okay, I forgive you. No need to bring a gift, just come!" He held his chin in his hand. "My female father invited a lot of bugs this time, from the military, from school, it seems like the entire Class A bugs will come... What a nuisance! They said it was a coming-of-age ceremony for me, but it was actually a large-scale blind date event."
"Hey, it's a good thing I can see you, otherwise I would be bored to death."
"The entire Class A?" Lins raised his eyebrows.
"Yes, all the female insects above grade A in your school must come... Didn't I hold a small celebration party on Planet C-267 last time? My female father said that the number of families proposing marriage to him has increased dramatically."
Lightan looked at Lins with his sky-blue eyes. He bit his lip and said, "But I rejected them all."
This expression of wanting to refuse but also to accept, wanting to speak but being shy, made Lins' heart tremble.
He was about to confess to Lightan when he saw Lightan quickly waved at him: "I have something else to do, so I'll hang up first."
Soon, it was the day of Lightan's coming-of-age ceremony.
Night falls and the lights come on.
The dinner venue was magnificent, like a palace floating on the top of a mountain.
In order to prevent riots caused by too many female insects, the mechas and aircraft were required to stop far away, and the Augustine family arranged the aircraft for ferrying.
Among a group of female soldiers armed with live ammunition, Lins saw Instructor Pedder from afar. He had obviously had a makeover today. His messy hair was now shaved into a flat top, and he finally looked like a female soldier.
Thinking about the reason, Lins wanted to laugh.
But he held back.
Instructor Peide, wearing a mask, glared at him fiercely.
Lins went through three security checks before he saw Lightan, who was still dressing up.
"I'm sorry for checking so strictly." Lightan said a little disappointedly, "My father found traces of the rebels in the capital."
"The Empire is so good, why do they want to go back to the old Empire? That was not a good era."
"Because power always attracts insects." Lins whispered.
Lightan was clearly upset: "The invitations have already been sent out. I wanted to cancel it, but the dam insisted on going ahead."
"Augustin is not afraid of anything. He always is..."
"Let's not talk about this. Hey, isn't your friend here? That Ashley..."
Lins coughed lightly.
"Ashley is shy. But he will protect your safety in the dark." Lins said, "Don't worry."
"I was quite afraid of him at first, but now I actually feel a little relieved."
Lightan smiled, and he smelled of an extremely sweet strawberry cake, just like his smile.
I don’t know if it’s because of Lins’s newly grown tentacles, but the scent of the strawberry cake is becoming more and more distinct.
This also reminded him of what happened during the training.
"Lightan, did you eat the cake just now?" Lins smiled, his dimples faintly visible. "Strawberry?"
"Oh no, that's my pheromones... Has the smell gotten stronger again? Damn, the doctor said this phase would pass quickly! But I've been out of my cocoon for three months!"
Breaking out of the cocoon... This was the first time Lins had heard this term. Perhaps Lightan was a butterfly? A moth?
But he didn't ask. He knew with his toes that teasing a male insect would be more punishable than teasing a female insect.
"The pheromones collected in these three months are more than what some male insects produce in three years!" Lightan pouted, and he suddenly recalled what happened when he left C-267.
It seemed, seemingly, that he had most likely provided a bottle of male insect pheromones.
And Lins's male insect photo is still in his room!
"Oh, I have to take a suppressant first. I'll be entertaining guest bugs soon!" He stood up suddenly. "Lins, I hope you have fun!"
Guests arrived one after another, and Lightan, as the protagonist, quickly became busy.
Lins stood on the third floor, leaning on the railing and looking down.
The music turned soothing, and a huge crystal chandelier hung from the dome, casting a soft light. Lightan stood in the middle of the dance floor, looking radiant.
His intricate and gorgeous dress bloomed with each spin, the sparkling jewels and lights complemented each other, and he looked like a beautiful little butterfly among the many tall female insects.
Outside the dance floor, in addition to the guests talking in low voices and the waiters walking around, there were also many female soldiers disguised as guests.
A female insect looked up sharply. He had golden hair and a deep vertical wrinkle between his eyebrows.
George Augustine, the dam of Lightan.
Lins withdrew his gaze unnoticeably and picked up the red strawberry on the cake with a fork.
How long will it take for the rebels to appear?
As the party drew to a close, everything seemed normal.
Dance after dance made Lightan's face turn red, and he invited Lins to the last dance.
Lightan put his hand on Lins' shoulder, and as the music started, the two of them slid onto the dance floor.
The situation suddenly occurred at this time.
During the rotation, Lins felt the waist in his hands suddenly go limp, and Lightan's cheeks were incredibly hot.
Lightan's pheromones suddenly burst out, and the rich scent of strawberry cake hit his face, as if he had fallen into the cake.
The sweet aroma became particularly strong, and Lins was surprised to find that the back of his neck had become hot.
If he paid more attention to the physiological knowledge of male insects, he would know that this was a sign that the male insects were entering the cocoon stage.
Too bad Lins would rather read the Encyclopedia of Insect Species.
The sound of cloth tearing suddenly rang out. Lins looked around and saw several pairs of compound eyes that had reverted to their ancestral form.
Under the sudden burst of pheromones, the sub-female who still maintained her sanity hurriedly notified the guards outside, but the concentration of pheromones in the hall was enough to drive the remaining female insects crazy.
The female insect on the right pounced on Lightan first. His body was covered with brown-black hard shells with a hint of brown-red polarization.
No offense, but that color reminds Lins of cockroaches.
"You're not pregnant?"
Lins asked.
The hard-shelled female insect had no time to pay attention to his question and rushed over regardless.
Lins shot out spider silk, held Lightan in one hand and jumped up.
The female insects here are here for a blind date with Lightan = unmarried = not pregnant.
It seems that non-pregnant cockroaches cannot fly...right?
However, facts told him that this was a misunderstanding.
Although cockroaches' wings have degenerated, they can still fly during their reproductive period.
Lins kicked him in the shoulder.
The cockroach was kicked down by him, but more winged female insects took off.
The atavistic wings spread out one after another, like ten thousand locusts crowded in a small jar.
The crystal lamppost was broken and countless dazzling crystals fell to the ground.
The lights in the ball suddenly dimmed.
Lins held the unconscious Lightan and ran at high speed in the winding corridor.
Two hours ago, he had checked the glass here, wondering if the rebels would break in through the window.
However, in fact, as early as when the invitations were sent out, the wealthy Augustine family had already replaced all the windows here.
They are all made of extremely hard materials and cannot be opened. In addition to being decorative, they also serve a protective purpose.
Ordinary weapons cannot penetrate this seemingly transparent glass.
This is a huge jar.
Damn Zerg, why don’t they like to open windows for ventilation like humans!
