Qingwu still finds it more convenient to speak in human form; he's gotten used to capturing all the information in each universe he visits.
Standing out of thin air in front of the Insect King, a playful smile appeared on his face. His sharp eyes caught sight of some tiny live-streaming devices. He opened his palm and made a pinching motion, and the live-streaming devices of all sizes, belonging to different organizations, went completely black.
People were gripped by unprecedented panic. In that instant, many heard their own or the chaotic heartbeats and breathing of those around them.
The leaders of various organizations looked grim, their eyes still fixed on the broken screen.
The humans had even more complicated feelings: Was that... a human?
All parties quickly sent letters to the human race, politely inquiring: "Did any great figures emerge from the human race's ancestors? Can we coexist peacefully and amicably, and discuss the benefits later..."
One batch of letters offering goodwill was processed, and another batch kept coming in, with rare treasures being delivered to the door like cheap goods from a street stall.
Would the humans dare to accept it?
No way! Who knows who that is? They want to know more than anyone else!!
The president of the Human Republic sighed, "How about we send a pretty volunteer to investigate?"
Since the councilors below didn't hear him mention men and women, then summon both men and women.
The world is never short of people who gamble with their lives, nor is it short of people who want to rise to the top in one step. Those who volunteer to go to the Zerg can catch up with a garrison.
On the other side, in the center of the three core planets of the Zerg, black mist filled the air, exuding an evil aura. Some Keltons who had returned to their old sites stretched out their limbs and occasionally flung them at the core Zerg planets, causing gravitational field tremors. The Zerg obediently lay prostrate on the surface, not daring to make a move.
Xie Yin had already nurtured Fei Tao. After returning, the elders would take care of the rest of the arrangements. He and his frail wife temporarily settled down in a corner to sleep. The energetic children quietly noticed this scene and cheered instantly, ready to let loose.
Qingwu excitedly spun around: "This place is so big! I see so many planets! Shall we go play? And that big bug! I was talking to it, but before it could reply, my father grabbed me."
Fei Tao said sternly, "Qing Wu, behave yourself. Did Father allow you to leave without permission?" Then she glanced at her younger siblings and said, "You too, without Father and Mother's permission, anyone who dares to leave will be locked in a dark room for ten thousand years."
Qingwu pouted: "You busybody, you're making a big deal out of nothing. You don't even call me 'Big Brother,' how rude of you."
Ju Guang obediently raised her hand: "Can we go to those three planets that are close by? They're very close, sister."
Fei Tao glanced at the distance, knowing that management required a balance of strictness and leniency. She remained silent for a long time before agreeing to let them go. Qing Wu immediately shouted and ran off, followed by a group of younger brothers and sisters who "charged" towards one of the planets.
The scales on the backs of the Zerg trembled with a mixture of fear and excitement.
Masters...masters...have returned...the Zerg...their loyalty to the death has never changed.
Qingwu felt as if he had returned to his happy old home. Every time he raised the head of a small insect and saw its scarlet, crazed compound eyes, he would feel a tingling excitement that went straight to his bones, and he would really want to cause trouble.
.........
Where did she go?
The eerie rustling and indistinct chanting all around made it feel like I was in a state of chaos, but I could only sense one clear presence: Xie Yin.
After a long time, Jiang Shuyin woke up from her dream in a daze.
Why did it stop?
"We've arrived. We've returned to our hometown."
Jiang Shuyin looked around. Her hands weren't supporting her on the floor, but on Xie Yin's body. Perhaps to help her get used to it, his upper body was still in human form, while his lower body was where she was lying—a dark ground or stone slab. Beneath the stone slab was emptiness, with no support whatsoever.
Everywhere you look, there are Kelton people, and something even darker is moving within the black mist.
Jiang Shuyin frowned, pointed at a member of her tribe, and asked, "What are they doing?"
Xie Yin glanced at it and explained, "We don't need food, but in order to keep our minds sharp, we need to absorb some substances similar to brainwaves to maintain our health."
Jiang Shuyin: "......"
To be honest, I didn't understand.
"These are equivalent to negative human emotions, such as anxiety, tension, anger, regret, sadness, pain, and inferiority."
Jiang Shuyin remained silent: This is very villainous, extremely evil.
What's with the feeling that I've joined an evil organization?
Where are the children?
Xie Yin took her hand and slowly floated into the air, making an "eight" gesture. A certain planet magnified before their eyes, and she saw Qingwu playing with her younger siblings and a group of...humanoid monsters.
Xie Yin: "The insects raised by our ancestors in the past were loyal and brave."
Jiang Shuyin, who had written interstellar fiction, felt as if she had been struck hard by a hammer.
The High Zerg! These are classic villains in StarCraft literature.
Thinking about what the Zerg had done, she suddenly had a bad feeling: "What are those Zerg for?"
Xie Yin: "Creating negative emotions."
Jiang Shuyin held her forehead; she wanted some peace and quiet, her mind was a bit of a mess.
"Could we ask the insects to stop working for a while and hold a clan meeting instead?"
Xie Yin raised an eyebrow, his eyes filled with satisfaction: "Good."
The short, sharp sound came from his abdomen and was extremely penetrating.
Soon, the children who were having a great time playing were called back by Fei Tao. These brightly colored little creatures were mixed in with the black mist that gathered from all directions.
The clan meeting was solemn.
All the tribesmen stood quietly and in neat rows, maintaining absolute silence. They only had the right to speak when the leader spoke.
Xie Yin transferred his power to his wife, and Jiang Shuyin, receiving his gaze, unconsciously lowered her voice: "I have a question for everyone, does Kelton always suffer from all sorts of unpredictable and unavoidable harm?"
Within the mysterious and endless black mist, countless voices swirled and remained indistinct. After a while, Elder A stepped forward and summarized: "To be honest, every few centuries, we are rejected by the rules and forced to leave this place, constantly traversing the black hole, resulting in fewer and fewer of our people being born. It's as if we're cursed, unable to live here for long."
Jiang Shuyin understood: If we don't do this, no living thing in this universe can survive in your hands, and they will perish sooner or later.
The laws governing this place have no effect on these Keltons; they can only drive them away and then take the opportunity to recuperate and allow the remaining creatures to continue to reproduce.
She came up with a solution that might relieve Kelton of this problem.
The elders urged her to speak quickly.
"We still need the Zerg to create negative emotions, but the way we obtain them will change."
It cannot involve indiscriminate killing, excessive oppression, or causing real harm, but it can bring people's negative emotions to the extreme.
