Chapter 338
They are humanoid, that's true, but they all have tentacles.
They are generally taller than humans, with expressionless faces, cold eyes, and weapons in their hands, like emotionless, cold-blooded animals, or cold war machines.
They are not human; they are a race unlike any other ever seen before!
What race is this? They look so much like humans!
[It's like it appeared out of thin air, impossible, right? Why didn't we know about it?]
Have you ever seen this species in an alien creature encyclopedia?
No! I'm pretty sure it's not in the Pokédex!
That's incredible! The encyclopedia is already very comprehensive, including many extinct species!
[Stop discussing whether you've seen them or not! Didn't you see their ill intentions? Are they planning to invade the Zerg? Are they going to make enemies of both the Zerg and humanity?]
Their warships are quite peculiar, but they look incredibly powerful! We're doomed! War is coming!
War is indeed coming, and their warships are formidable! Moreover, their physical combat prowess is even more impressive!
What do you know upstairs? Tell me quickly!
This is the Star Eater Clan! Warlike and bloodthirsty! More terrifying than the Zerg of the past! They almost wiped out the entire universe before!
It was only after Gregory developed the evolution fluid that allowed humanity to evolve. Humans then collectively self-destructed, perishing along with many Star Eaters, that they were barely able to drive the Star Eaters away.
Humanity was almost wiped out in that great war, as were the Star Eaters. However, humans have a higher reproductive rate than the Star Eaters, and it is said that the Star Eaters have a hard time having offspring.
Over the years, humanity has risen again, and there has been no news of the Star Eaters. People thought the Star Eaters had long been extinct!
Unexpectedly, they've come back with a vengeance!
[They thought they were extinct, didn't the Zerg think so too? And what happened? The current Star Eaters! According to you, this is a more terrifying, powerful, and brutal high-end version of the Zerg?]
Why has no one ever spoken of such a terrifying race? Is the Federation suppressing information?
You're disregarding the safety of everyone!! You're gambling with the safety of humanity! What makes you think the Star Eaters are extinct?!
This person's comments caused great panic among the crowd. People were afraid and had no other choice but to vent their dissatisfaction on the StarNet.
They resented the federal government for knowing about the existence of the Star Eaters but failing to take precautions, failing to investigate whether the Star Eaters were extinct, and allowing them to grow stronger and attack again.
This is different from the previous Zerg.
The Zerg are powerful, but humanity is not incapable of fighting them.
The Star Eaters—judging from what the person explaining the science just said, these are beings capable of wiping out humanity. How can people remain calm?
The federal government owes everyone an explanation!
[Are you sure the Star Eaters are like what you're saying? Where did you hear that? I'm warning you, spreading rumors and disrupting social order is a crime punishable by imprisonment!]
I don't believe it! It must be fake!
[It's true! This is a top-secret file. I've seen information about the Star Eaters at the Federal Biological Research Institute, and I think it no longer needs to be kept secret!]
As more and more people come forward to acknowledge the existence of the Star Eaters and to educate the public, people become increasingly afraid.
Star Eaters, humanoid, with tentacles.
Their physical strength rivals that of the Zerg, and they also possess terrifying mental power, advanced intelligence, and technology more advanced than that of humans.
Their tentacles can communicate regardless of distance. They are united and powerful, but also brutal and bloodthirsty, with a penchant for devouring planets and wiping out species!
Some have broken down, some are packing their bags to run away, and others are helplessly wailing...
Human society as a whole seemed to be in chaos, until someone posted another comment.
[Don't panic, everyone. The alliance between humanity and the Zerg is to fight the Star Eaters. We have been preparing for this for a long time; we are not unprepared, nor are we without an opportunity!]
What do you mean? You knew all along that the Star Eaters would appear?
The Queen suspects that the Star Eaters may not be extinct and is worried that they might reappear!
It was also the Queen who strongly promoted the cooperation between the two races, with the aim of fighting against the Star Eaters. To be honest, we didn't believe at first that the Star Eaters would make a comeback.
But now...
Thank the Queen! It was her foresight that saved us!
People were suddenly calmed down and gradually stopped panicking and trying to escape. Instead, they patiently continued watching the live stream.
Rong Rong was watching the live stream with the Prince Insect and some humanoid soldier insects.
Roy and the other three looked grave.
On the human side, Morton and Sophie also happened to be at the Federal Building, and they gathered in the conference room.
A sense of tension spread throughout the room, with everyone staring intently at their screens, quickly devising solutions.
Morton and Sophie also felt tense until a familiar face suddenly appeared on the screen.
“Simon?” Roy asked in surprise.
Esther and the other two all looked at him, while he looked at Rong Rong.
Rong Rong's lips parted slightly, as if she was about to cry out in surprise.
The Star Eaters have arrived, and Simon is their leader?
Rong Rong couldn't believe it for a moment, but the bright antennae on Simon's forehead were a clear reminder that Simon was not human.
Simon's face was ashen, his serious, dark eyes concealing a sense of danger.
This is completely different from the man Rong Rong remembered.
In her memory, Simon always had a roguish air about him and loved to laugh. That kind of smile always made Rong Rong feel that he was about to do something bad.
Recalling the past and comparing the differences, Simon's familiar voice rang in my ears.
"Rong Rong, it's been so long! Don't you want to come out and see me?"
From that moment on, the coldness on Simon's face disappeared, and his signature smile reappeared, returning to the look Rong Rong was familiar with.
However, after getting to know her better, Rong Rong realized something.
Simon's visit this time might not be to invade humanity, but to find her, and she might even be heading straight to the Zerg stronghold!
Looking at it now, it seems as if she tricked humanity into forming an alliance with the Zerg, making humanity help the Zerg fight against the Star Eaters.
Rong Rong blushed slightly.
But in reality, she was overthinking it.
The number of humanoid insectoids has reached hundreds of thousands. A small portion of them remain on Raman to guard the royal palace, while the majority have gone to human society.
They went to school and worked with humans. Humans found them to be quiet, honest, and incredibly strong, and they grew to like them very much.
Some people even pursue them passionately, wanting to become their partners, especially the females.
They are extremely popular in human societies where there are more men than women.
However, they all rejected human pursuit.
In their view, they all belonged to the Queen, and being with others was a betrayal of her.
At this time, Rong Rong was unaware of this matter. If she had known, she would definitely have encouraged the Zerg and humans to stay together.
In short, the relationship between the Zerg and humans has become much closer, and humans are well aware of the Star Eaters' brutality.
Even if the Star Eaters don't attack humans first, humans will eventually face this enemy.
While Rong Rong was troubled, the people watching the live stream also realized that something was wrong.
This man, who looks like the leader of the Star Eaters, seems to know the Zerg Queen!
