Chapter 54: Ai Zhe is Imprisoned
"Don't you want to know how the Crustacean was developed?"
"Then I'll tell you."
"Two hundred years ago, our Pan-Continental Alliance was defeated by the Ocean-Ring Alliance. The defeated were captured, and we became experimental material."
"They're using living people for brain extraction experiments!"
"We were a living person, with his skull peeled off and his brain split in two!"
"Half of it remains in our bodies, and the other half, after being processed, is forcibly implanted into the already modified spider body."
Ai Zhe was shocked and his face turned pale instantly, as if he had heard the most cruel purgatory in the world.
Locked in a stone cage, sweat instantly streamed down his forehead.
His eyes were out of focus.
"I am Eglas. I am the Spider King who imprisoned you."
The boy's golden pupils shrank slightly.
A dangerous light flickered in his pupils as he approached Ai Zhe step by step.
Ai Zhe was shocked and shook his head in disbelief.
It was obviously difficult to connect the young man in front of him with that nightmarish creature.
In the distance, deep in the cave, a "click" sound was heard.
A giant shadow moved slowly, and its eight sharp legs stepped slowly and powerfully on the rock surface.
The thing was as big as a military truck, covered with a hard silver-gray shell.
The golden compound eyes glowed in the dim light, and the mouthparts under the carapace opened and closed gently.
A familiar low panting sound echoed in the cave.
Ai Zhe looked at the monster in the cave in horror.
Everything reminded him of the fear he once experienced in the hive.
The scenes of waking up repeatedly in dreams reminded him of the speculations and doubts in the deepest part of his heart that he had never wanted to face.
Ai Zhe stared blankly at the white-haired boy in front of him.
"I'm in pain."
"I'm a monster."
"I can't control myself."
Eglas slowly squatted down and placed the armored spider in his palm on the ground.
Then he opened his mouth and slowly spit out a ball of white, sticky substance from his throat.
Pulled and stretched in the air, it gradually turns into the appearance of transparent spider silk.
"My body has been modified."
"My spider body has also been modified."
"I was created for revenge."
"We are all creatures that exist for revenge. The Carapace Spider is a half-human, half-spider monster!"
His voice was low and clear, like a confession, but also like a spell.
Egglas stood up slowly, his back facing Aizhe, his shoulders trembling slightly.
The golden eyes revealed an irrepressible glimmer of darkness and sadness.
But Ai Zhe seemed not to hear what he said clearly and fell into a trance.
He knew that the Crustacean, as an artificial species, was related to human experiments, but he never expected... to be discovered in this way...
A thought that frightened and distressed him suddenly emerged in his mind.
Little spider...
That little spider that always depended on him, made little noises, and always liked to curl up in his pocket...
That little life that the organization had forced him to abandon...
Because Crustacean spiders are extremely dangerous.
Once its body is exposed, it will attract tracking and revenge by its own kind.
Zeta was afraid of causing a larger-scale alien riot and did not even dare to kill it himself.
Instead, he ordered Ai Zhe to throw it farther away.
it……
Could it also contain... the brain of a human boy?
Like Eglas who was standing before him now?
His breathing stopped and his back felt cold, but he couldn't help but feel the pain in his heart.
What Ai Zhe felt most sorry for at this moment was the little spider.
He remembered that many years ago, when it was forcibly abandoned by the Zeta organization, it was thrown in a box far away.
Watching him go away silently.
The lid is not completely closed.
The pair of small golden eyes peeked out from the crack of the box.
She stared at him blankly, motionless.
Watching him go away, it was as if he was saying goodbye quietly.
Ai Zhe's chest tightened and his eyes became sore.
He began to feel sorry for the little spider who might have died...
Is Spider-Man also an alien with the brain of a human boy?
Like Eglas who was standing before him now?
He looked at the white-haired boy in front of him.
The other party is the Insect King, an extremely lethal alien species, and he dare not provoke him easily.
Now, the most important thing is to calm the other person's emotions.
He reminded himself that he couldn't treat the boy in front of him as a human being.
He was a different species, the king who controlled the Zerg. At this moment, Eglas came over.
He stood in front of the cage, his golden eyes lowered, and his voice sounded muffled:
"Do I look better now?"
"I didn't understand it at the time. I thought you were just afraid of my insect form."
Heavy breathing could be heard from the cave.
Looking over from the shadows in the dark corner, there is also a "him" over there.
That's another Egglas.
Spider form.
He has two bodies and two brains, and is a mutant that was forcibly transformed into a dual-brain, dual-body creature.
The spider Eglas in the cave seemed to have some inferiority complex.
Half hidden in the shadows behind the rock wall, he just stared at this side quietly.
Its compound eyes trembled slightly, but its eight-segmented limbs did not move.
It's like he's afraid of being hated again.
The relationship between armored spiders and humans is that they share a brain.
This information is critical.
Ai Zhe thought, if he could escape alive...
This information should clear up some of the confusion.
The dual-brain alien structure means that they may retain human consciousness!
But at this moment, Egglas suddenly burst into tears.
A mist of sadness floated in his golden eyes, even with a kind of restrained unwillingness.
He looked at Ai Zhe, his voice low and painful:
"I exist only for revenge."
"I am the enemy of humanity."
"Now, I will take revenge as well."
"I have mastered the technical principles of the sonic waves of your weapons."
"I know how it messes with our nerves, how it induces fear."
"Except you... I won't leave anyone behind. I'm going to kill them all now!"
Ai Zhe was shocked and his face changed slightly.
He suddenly realized that the other person's emotions were unstable, but his feelings were still there.
We must find a way to delay time and stabilize the Insect King's consciousness.
He spoke quickly, trying to soften his tone:
"You can...try to imagine your family from two hundred years ago."
"Or those who once cared about you."
"You weren't born a monster."
Ai Zhe tried to guide him and put more words into his mouth.
If this humanoid Eglas really still has human consciousness, it means that he can communicate.
You can persuade, bargain, or even induce.
The insect body is limited by its morphology, and its thinking tends to be alien instincts, so it may not be able to communicate.
In comparison, this human-shaped body looks more rational.
Ai Zhe tried to calm him down as if he were trying to persuade a thug.
"My parents never cared about me. They even scolded me for playing football..."
Egglas' voice was low, but sincere enough.
On the other side of the cave, the silent spider suddenly let out a low, hoarse grunt. It wasn't a roar, but more like a painful sob.
The huge shell moved, as if it couldn't help but curl up in sadness.
"And in this world..."
"There was once a person who was the only one who cared about me...who loved me."
Eglas approached slowly, his voice filled with unconcealable resentment and sadness.
Ai Zhe subconsciously stepped back, his muscles tense.
"He doesn't belong to me..."
"I set up this trap myself. I was the one who lured him closer..."
"But he mistakenly fell into the arms of someone else..."
Eglas looked down at his fingers.
The veins on the back of his hand were bulging, as if he was trembling as he suppressed some emotion.
The golden eyes raised and looked directly at Ai Zhe.
It wasn't anger, but a sharp and desperate obsession.
Ai Zhe was nervous.
