Chapter 12: Value Makes the Deal Worth It
After a good night's sleep, when Nan Qi woke up, it was already dawn.
Nan Qi slept extremely comfortably this time. He stood up and knelt on the bed, put his hands on the bed, pressed his shoulders and back down, lifted his buttocks, and did a standard cat stretch.
The lines of his back moved in a very regular manner as he stretched, looking extremely powerful, just like a big cat that had just woken up and was stretching leisurely.
In the sunlight, it seemed as if a large furry tail really stretched out from Nan Qi's tail vertebrae, swaying slightly as he stretched it, making Nan Qi look noble, mysterious, and extremely dangerous.
It makes people want to touch the authenticity of the tail, but no one dares to approach his territory.
After shaking his shoulders and neck, Nan Qi leaped up and landed lightly without making a sound. Today was the second day of the preliminaries, and he had arranged for most of the day to train. Time was almost up, and he didn't want to be late.
After taking a quick shower and drinking only a bag of nutrient solution to save time, Nan Qi walked to the next room and lay down in the game cabin.
As soon as he came online, there were already several tall and intimidating female insects standing in the room. They were all his sparring partners for the day. When they saw him, they all greeted him with a smile.
Nan Qi raised an eyebrow. Last night, while these female insects didn't show disgust towards him, they were still cold and indifferent to him. What happened today? Had they changed their ways?
As if she could see his doubt, the leading female insect smiled and said, "We female insects are actually very pure. We won't bully us by relying on our status. We don't reject capable male insects."
"Yeah, we are not insects that can't tell right from wrong." The insect behind the leading female insect touched its nose, seeming a little embarrassed.
Nan Qi didn't say anything. He silently observed these female insects. After a few seconds, he was sure that these female insects were not lying to him.
It seemed that the male and female Zerg weren't as incompatible as he'd imagined. But that was true. Human personalities were changeable, and the Zerg's personalities couldn't be static either.
Where there is good, there is bad. Maybe most male insects are spoiled, but there are also normal male insects. Otherwise, the balance of this world would have been broken long ago.
However, it is not ruled out that these are all means for female insects to win over and erode the minds of male insects. In addition, there are F-level male insects that can be bullied by female insects, which maintains the current balance.
But no matter what the reason is, he still knows too little about this world. What he can do now is to deal with it carefully, collect more information, ensure his own safety and survival, and not be caught up in the storm between female and male insects.
After figuring this out, Nan Qi smiled brightly: "Well, what should I call you?"
Nan Qi wore a half-mask, but the exposed features still revealed his sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and he was very handsome. His smile was very pleasing to the eye, and his eyes sparkled with sincerity.
Don't hit the smiling bugs. Several female bugs scratched their heads, looked at each other, and revealed their hidden names. After all, they were just game names, so they were not afraid that Nan Qi would find out their identities based on their names.
Starting from the leading female insect, their names are A01 to A07, which are obviously unified code names.
Nan Qi said casually, "Your name really sounds like the code name of a well-trained team on a mission."
"Huh? Really? I guess so. We're professional sparring partners. You know, killing bugs in the game isn't illegal, but using your real name might lead to retaliation offline, so we have to be careful."
The leading female insect reacted very quickly, but Nan Qi still noticed that she was unnatural for a moment.
Nan Qi didn't want to delve into it. After all, it was a deal. As long as he gave them what they wanted, the deal would be done.
If his guess is confirmed, he will be much safer with their protection. After winning the grand prize, he will fly away to see this different world.
Of course, the premise of all this is that his value is enough to attract the other party.
Having made up his mind, Nan Qi wanted to show his worth. He looked at the leading female insect and said, "Mr. A01, please pick three to fight with. I want to increase the difficulty."
Mr. A01 - Mellon was delighted. Bai had told him to force the male insect to show its true ability. He hadn't figured out how to start a one-on-two fight, but the male insect brought it up himself. It was so thoughtful.
He hurriedly called out to the people behind him, and Melon pushed behind his comrades and sent a message to Bai.
Buzz buzz buzz——
A slender, smooth, and well-defined arm stretched out from the quilt, accurately picked up the Star Brain that was placed on the bedside table, and clicked it to check the message.
Bai slept very late last night and was tortured by the abnormal mental movement in the middle of the night. He should be extremely tired, but from his calm and self-controlled eyes, there was no sign of fatigue at all. As always, he was like a sword drawn from its sheath, shining with light.
After reading the message, Bai called out "Lily" and the robot insect flew in, flapping its little wings.
"Shiro, is there anything I need Lily to do for you?"
Bai Qi put on his nightgown and tied the belt as he walked. As he walked, his two long legs were faintly visible. His thighs were strong but not thick, and his calves were straight and slender, exuding a jade-like luster.
Further up is a smooth curve, as well as a strong, flexible waist, broad shoulders and beautiful butterfly bones that seem to be about to spread their wings and fly.
Judging from his figure, Bai looks more like a model than a military female, making it hard for Chong to believe that he is the commander of an army.
But no insect dared to underestimate the power that this body could unleash, nor the beautiful yet deadly wings hidden under that beautiful back.
"I need a cup of coffee, thank you." Bai walked into the room where the game cabin was placed and was about to enter the game cabin when he was stopped by Lily.
The robot insect flapped its beautiful little wings, and a look of worry appeared in its gem-like compound eyes. Bai paused and sighed, "Please give me a bag of original nutritional supplements."
Lily then moved her body away and took out a bag of nutrients from the device in her abdomen and handed it to Bai: "Bai, Lily hopes you can get more rest."
Bai drank the nutrient solution in one breath, touched Lily's little wings, and smiled lightly: "I know, thank you Lily, go get busy."
Lily then flapped her little wings and flew away. Before leaving, she did not forget to take away the bag of nutrients and closed the door.
Bai let out a light breath, no longer hesitated, and stepped into the game cabin.
In the Brave Game sparring room, the battle has just entered a white-hot stage.
After the initial mutual testing, the female insects' offensive became more and more fierce, and they cooperated with each other very tacitly, keeping Nan Qi firmly under control in the center of the arena.
Nan Qi dodged a flying kick from one of the female insects, but a palm strike was about to hit him from behind! Nan Qi didn't dodge or evade, blocking the palm strike with his backhand. He ducked back, smiled at A06, and flicked his finger directly at the female insect's waist!
"Ugh--" A06 was unable to dodge and immediately felt weak in the waist. He staggered a few steps before he could stand firm. Looking at Nan Qi again, he had already escaped from the encirclement of the three insects by taking advantage of the subtle time difference.
A06: “!!!”
Nan Qi tilted his head and smiled, not giving A06 a chance to react, and pursued the victory. The other two female insects would not let Nan Qi be so arrogant, and attacked Nan Qi quickly.
"I've fallen into a trap!" A hint of pride in Nan Qi's eyes flashed, and when the two female insects were about to touch him, he nimbly went behind A06, whose body had not yet recovered.
The warm breath blew against A06's ears, but A06 couldn't think of anything romantic at all. He just felt like the god of death was whispering in his ears.
"Hehe, please do me a favor, Mr. A06."
Before he could finish his words, A06 felt a force attacking his spine and lumbar vertebrae, and he couldn't help but rush forward. At this moment, the fists and kicks of his two comrades followed one after another.
A06: “…Ahhhhhhhhhhhh—”
Two female insects: "Get out of the way!"
Bang, bang, bang—
“Ouch!”
“Ouch!”
“Ouch!”
All this happened in a flash. When the insects reacted, fists and feet collided with flesh and screams of pain were heard at the same time. In the center of the ring, three female insects were stacked together, with bruised faces and noses, looking very miserable.
On the other hand, the male insect was standing intact, looking at the fallen female insect with interest, with a smile in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, just like the pride of a young insect after a successful prank.
As if noticing that everyone was looking at him, the male insect quickly restrained his expression, walked to the fallen female insects, helped the insects up one by one and apologized, as if what they had seen before was an illusion.
Mellon: “…”
The female insect that didn't play: "..."
Sure enough, male insects are all cunning, even the male insect in front of him is no exception.
He was watching the game from the sidelines, and a strange light flashed in his eyes as he saw everything.
This male insect was very smart. He saw that the cooperation between the female insects was difficult to break. After testing each other and finding out that A06 was the weakest, he chose to break through from the direction of A06.
He used his own flexibility to maneuver among the female insects, found the right opportunity to attack A06, and finally used A06's body as a cover and weapon, causing the female insects to kill each other.
During the competition, he snapped his fingers three times between the female insect's waist and back, which coincided with the part he attacked his opponent in the preliminary round. This means that the attack method used before was not a coincidence, but a unique combination of fighting skills of this male insect.
There is not much difference in the body structure between female and male insects, and the body structure of the Star Beasts when they maintain their normal form is also not much different from theirs, which means that this set of skills can also be used on the Star Beasts.
Even if the physical strength of the star beasts increases after transformation, their female insects below level B can use the advantages of mechas to use this skill to fight against these star beasts.
This greatly reduces the pressure on the army's high-level female insects, allowing them to free up their hands to deal with more star beasts.
With such skills, they will be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort when dealing with star beasts.
Of course, the premise of all this is that the male insects are willing to teach them this skill, and the female insects can also learn it. They also have to find a way to catch the star beasts and bring them back for experiments.
But no matter what, this is an opportunity, and I have to try it to see if it works.
