Chapter 115 Ups and Downs
The news of Colin's escape from Black Rock Prison reached the ears of the Insect Emperor that day.
He was an S-rank military female who disappeared after leaving the jungle. The military sent nearly 70% of the military females to conduct a blanket search, but still failed to find Colin's whereabouts.
The Insect Emperor became even more ill due to his rage. He collapsed on the bed, his eyes were covered with cataracts and lifeless, staring at the dark sky above.
Sean came to see the Insect Emperor several times, but was rejected by him. Regardless of whether Sean helped Colin or not, it is a fact that Colin escaped, and Sean cannot deny the blame.
"More than one...more than one..." the Insect Emperor murmured. He tried to open his eyes wide and tried to push away the thick black fog in front of him to look inside.
The royal doctors surrounding him were confused when they heard this. They could only wait by the side and feed the medicine to the Insect Emperor after it was cooked.
The Insect Emperor's days are numbered.
*
Adrian stayed in the villa for a while and did not go out. Apart from flipping through the white paper in his spare time, Adrian collected information from all over the Star Network.
The wedding that happened not long ago had a huge impact. Colin escaped, Sean was implicated and imprisoned in the palace, and the Insect Emperor was seriously ill... All these things happened one after another, which undoubtedly made the entire Murikhela royal family even worse.
The forces within the Zerg clan are all plotting secretly, guarding against each other and ready to make a move, and it seems that a storm is about to come.
Adrian paid attention to A'ran's condition. Compared with before, A'ran was in relatively good condition.
He found an opportunity to get in touch with Cecil in the black market. Cecil provided him with intelligence and A-ran secretly directed them. The two insects cooperated with each other and took the opportunity to crack down on the insect trafficking activities in the black market.
With the help of the military, most of the abducted male and female insects returned to their original places of residence. A'ran made great contributions and received a rare award from the Insect Emperor.
But the good times didn't last long.
But within a week, Adrian suddenly lost contact with A'ran.
Adrian could probably guess the reason. He asked Fabian, and it turned out to be just as he had guessed—the royal doctor who had escaped earlier returned to Sean and risked his life to reveal A-ran's female identity to the Insect Emperor in the palace.
There was no way A'ran could take off his clothes in public to prove his innocence, so he and the doctor were in a stalemate for a while. Finally, the Insect Emperor ordered A'ran to be taken to the inner hall for examination.
The examination results showed that Ah Ran's identity was not a problem and he was still a male insect. The royal doctor framed the prince and was immediately ordered to be executed by the Insect Emperor.
After that, A'ran was also locked in the inner hall and no news was heard from him.
Adrian immediately understood what was going on.
Ah-ran still couldn't hide her identity. The bones and muscles of female insects are very different from those of male insects. Even if Ah-ran could hide the insect pattern behind her neck, her wings, reproductive cavity, mental disorder... these were difficult to hide.
The Insect Emperor executed the royal doctor just to save his shame. The current situation is not good. The Insect Emperor has already punished Sean, and it is impossible for him to execute another "male insect" prince in public.
But he had been deceived by a female insect for more than ten years, and the Insect Emperor would certainly not let A'ran go.
"Your Excellency, I am watching over Prince Aran. His life is not in danger for the time being. I will hand it over to you from now on... The military has already begun to divide the forces, and Commander Morris must withdraw as soon as possible..."
Fabian's words were brief, and Adrian got the general idea. He slowly rubbed the skin on his wrist and said, "Okay, I'll follow the plan."
After the call ended, Adrian threw the laptop aside.
The Insect Emperor is suspicious by nature. In this situation, even though he is sick, he is still willing to review the old cases of the previous emperor and check the identities of the female insects one by one.
Edrien was not worried about the Insect Emperor, as the Insect Emperor's body would only last for a month at most. However, Sean had not completely lost his heart as an emperor, and now he was retaliating against A'ran.
"Rui An was originally a plant insect. Later, all his organs began to deteriorate rapidly. The main reason was that his heart was damaged and he was unable to receive a matching heart transplant in time..."
Adrian slowly touched his face with his fingertips. Even though it had been so long since his rebirth, he still felt the dull pain on his face at irregular times.
The fire wasn't hot enough to kill Sean.
Adrian clenched the white paper in his hand.
He was going to add fuel to Sean's fire.
…
After A-ran was imprisoned, Morris also submitted a note of leave to the military. He had never taken off the bandage on his right eye before, and now the condition of his eye was serious. The virus and bacteria had already invaded the eye, and he might have to undergo an eyeball removal surgery.
The military superiors looked worried after reading the hospital's report.
The military had two shining stars, Colin and Morris. Now one of them is on the run and the other is about to become a one-eyed dragon. Their situations make Chong sigh.
In view of the severity of Morris's injuries, the military granted him leave. The female soldier's surgery only takes two or three days to recover, and Morris's situation was special, so he was given a week of rest.
Adrian deliberately made a big deal out of it. He spread the news about Morris's eye removal surgery on Starnet and then cut off contact with the outside world.
Morris got a week's vacation for nothing.
He had watched Adrian typing away on the keyboard in front of the computer these days, and he didn't quite understand what he was doing. "My Lord, the Insect Emperor has already heard the news. He is too ill to use the computer now."
Adrian's men kept moving. He said, "I don't want him to see it. I want other insects to see it."
Morris: "Other bugs?"
"Yes." Adrian chose a picture of a bloody whip, edited it, and posted it to his account, "Let him see how I torture you."
Morris: "..."
Adrian always seemed to be hiding something from Morris.
Morris was very sensitive and knew that Adrian always liked to do small things on his own. For example, Morris only occasionally flipped through the white book that he often read, and Adrian immediately moved the book to another place to hide it.
This little male insect is just like this, his unstable mind makes other insects worried.
Morris glanced at Adrian's computer screen and asked no more questions.
He took out his yellow book and leaned against the corner of the bed, continuing to ponder the thousand postures contained in it.
…
Adrian posted pictures for two consecutive days and then exited the computer.
The pink ball has been completely silent these few days, and its love value has been decreasing, four or five points every day. In just three days, it has dropped from over forty to twenty-five.
Occasionally, Adrian saw it crying in its cage, its pink color extremely dimmed. But when he passed by it, its brightness immediately returned to normal.
[Do you think I will forgive you? I will never forgive you!]
Pink grabbed the railing and threatened Gouqiu Tusheng.
It was numb with the thought of just trying to survive, so it returned to its closet where it slept and closed the door tightly.
[Woo woo…]
Adrian: “…”
Adrian set aside a room specifically for the two of them, closed the door, and walked towards his bedroom.
It was late at night and the bedroom was dark. Adrian opened the door and walked in, and the bedroom light suddenly came on.
"Where's Morris?"
Edrian paused, and turned to look at the black muzzle of the gun resting at his temple.
