Chapter 187: Read the full text and see what the author has to say
The flames of war ignited across the world, and the thieves trapped in the Kron galaxy came out in full force.
The experimental subjects hidden in the deepest part of the laboratory came out together, with the Beast Thieves' experimental subjects leading the way, followed closely by the Miscellaneous Thieves' Group and the Star Thieves' Group, and they charged in a spearhead formation.
This breakout was swift and fierce, and the offensive was unprecedentedly desperate.
Amidst the barrage of artillery fire, blood-red light exploded, dyeing the dark sky red.
Broken limbs, mecha wreckage, and starship fragments were attracted by gravity and became part of the Kron Galaxy's rubble belt, and then were blown to pieces by artillery fire again, completely disappearing from this world.
At this moment, the cruelty of war is truly exposed. Greedy intelligent life will eventually pay the price for its decision.
The leaders of various countries, who thought they had the upper hand and everything was under their control, panicked for the first time and were bitten back by their own arrogance. The Insect King Hoover Walker was particularly hard hit.
He had clearly installed special shielding devices on all the smart devices that needed to be shielded in the empire, but he was still turned against by the "crazy" main brain image.
After discovering this, Hoover Walker thought there was something wrong with Allaire's programming and wanted to stop the reset, but found that he couldn't stop it at all.
Hoover Walker immediately summoned Ailaier, but learned that Ailaier had committed suicide. Hoover Walker then realized that he might have been used.
Feeling for the first time that something was slipping out of his control, Hoover Walker angrily smashed everything in the secret room and swung a chair at the console of the main brain system.
With a bang, the control panel was smashed to pieces, and the screen that had been dark suddenly lit up.
A pair of emerald green eyes appeared on the big screen, staring playfully at Hoover Walker, who was fuming, his face flushed, his head lowered, and without a trace of imperial bearing. After a moment, they let out a hoarse laugh.
"Who's laughing!" Hoover Walker was startled and looked up suddenly to see the green eyes on the big screen. He was so frightened by the sinister look in those eyes that he sat down on the ground. The glass fragments cut his hand and he hissed in pain, but at least he regained some of his sanity.
"Who are you?" Hoover Walker asked warily.
The emerald green pupils spun and changed in front of Hoover Walker, eventually transforming into a face that Hoover Walker was most familiar with. It floated down from the big screen and stood in front of Hoover Walker.
"You, you are so outrageous! How dare you transform into the Emperor!" Hoover Walker was shocked and furious, but he was actually weak inside. "Who are you? What's your plan to transform into the Emperor? Where is the Silver Wing Squadron? Where are they?"
Hoover Walker shouted twice, but the Silver Wings, who were supposed to be on call at any time, didn't make a sound. Hoover Walker had never been so isolated and helpless before. He was terrified, but he barely maintained a calm facade.
However, this disguise can be easily exposed in front of the main brain that is best at calculations.
"Don't be afraid, Your Majesty. Don't you trust me the most?"
Being stared at by a face just like his own, Hoover Walker felt a strange feeling rising up. His scalp was numb, but his mind was extremely clear. He shouted sharply, "You are the mastermind!"
"Correct, but there's no reward." The Mastermind tilted its head and looked at Hoover Walker. "But I prefer you to call me Middleton. This is my name in life and it's my honor."
"Middleton, Middleton." Hoover Walker thought the name sounded very familiar. He repeated it twice in a row, his eyes suddenly widening. He pointed at Middleton with trembling hands, no longer able to maintain his calm pretense. "You, you are the destroyer who destroyed the civilization of that era three hundred thousand years ago!"
"I got the answer right again, but unfortunately there's still no reward."
Middleton grinned at Hoover Walker, his hoarse voice carrying a terrifying effect. "Speaking of which, I owe you a lot of thanks. Three hundred thousand years ago, I was once again shattered by my mortal enemy, and the fragments contaminated with my spiritual power were scattered everywhere. If it weren't for you, it would have taken me many years to recover."
At this point, his eyes turned cold, and he muttered to himself, "I didn't expect that he would ruin my plans, preventing me from ever returning to my real body and forcing me to be bound to this cold shell forever."
As if finally realizing Middleton's ill intentions, Hoover Walker struggled to his feet, turned around and tried to escape, but his retreat was blocked by the security robot insect that had entered the secret room at some point.
"What on earth do you want to do?!"
Hoover Walker raised his hand and threw the fallen chair towards Middleton, but it was blocked by one of the security robot bugs. However, Hoover Walker still saw a corner of the chair pass through Middleton's body.
It's an illusion! Middleton has no physical body!
how so?
Hoover Walker subconsciously took a defensive stance, secretly thanking himself for using the promote02 potion, otherwise he would have had no choice but to surrender when facing the security robot bug today.
"I'm not planning anything. After all, you've done me a favor, so I won't do anything to you." Middleton paused, sizing Hoover Walker up and down, and beckoned, "Don't you want to become the greatest emperor in the world? How about I help you?"
"I won't harm you. Don't forget, I helped you take the throne. Over the years, I have responded to all your requests. We are the best partners, aren't we?"
Hoover Walker was able to sit on the throne for a hundred years, so he was definitely not a fool.
He knew very well that Middleton was not the best partner at all. He seemed to be helping him over the years, but in fact, it was all for today.
Middleton has been using him to achieve his goal of world domination.
The reason is that Middleton has no entity!
How can a projection sit firmly on the throne? Even if it can, how can an intelligence without even a body enjoy the feeling that power brings him?
So what Middleton wants is not cooperation at all, he wants his own body?
Quickly figuring out Middleton's intentions, Hoover Walker could no longer remain calm. His mental strength suddenly erupted, knocking over the security robot insects that were blocking him. He desperately ran out of the secret room, closed and locked the door, but was stunned by the scene before him.
The originally clean and tidy bedroom was now filled with intelligent machines. His Silver Wing Brigade was surrounded by the densely packed mechanical army and was caught in a tough battle.
The bloody atmosphere enveloped the entire palace, and screams and gunshots lingered in his ears. Hoover Walker, who had never faced such a cruel scene, felt his throat tighten and his face turned pale.
A gust of wind blew, and all the doors and windows of the bedroom opened wide. The cold wind swept the bloody air through the sky. Instead of diluting the smell of blood, the "fragrance" of broken limbs burned by artillery fire and laser rays penetrated into the nose from every pore.
Middleton reappeared and whispered devilishly into Hoover Walker's ear:
"How about it? Isn't red beautiful? Do you like the gift I gave you?"
Hoover Walker's breath was choked, and cold sweat instantly soaked his back. Beads of sweat as big as beans dripped down his cheeks and fell on the blood-soaked carpet, forming a small puddle.
He turned his head stiffly and looked at a face that looked exactly like his own. For the first time, he felt that his forced smile could rival the ghosts in horror movies.
"How are you thinking about it?"
The ghost continued to whisper, "My patience is limited. You can try. Which will run out first? My patience will run out first, or will all the living things on your central planet die first? After the central planet dies, your side planets and all the life planets under your rule will also die."
"Oh, I forgot," Middleton said, covering his mouth exaggeratedly. "When has His Majesty the Insect King ever cared about the lives of his fellow insects? Even if his own children threatened his position, he would kill them without mercy. He was also merciless to his brother who helped him ascend to the throne. How could he care about those stupid creatures?"
"If you already know, why are you asking me?" Hoover Walker forced himself to calm down and negotiate with Middleton. "Don't you just want my body so you can enjoy the pleasure of ruling the world? I can agree to cooperate with you, but you have to promise me that you won't erase my spiritual power. We must coexist!"
"What qualifications do you have to negotiate with me?" Middleton narrowed his eyes. "I could easily kill you and take over your body. I was just playing with you just now to kill some time. Do you really think I must have you?"
"You just have to have me!" Hoover Walker was a good guy and had extracted information that was beneficial to him from the few conditions available.
"If you didn't absolutely need me, you could have killed me and gone to find my sons, or simply taken over my body. The fact that you didn't means you only needed my body, and you needed to occupy it whenever I was available. Let me guess, it's because I injected you with the purified agent of the Promote02 potion."
Hoover Walker looked at Middleton's gloomy expression and knew that he had guessed right, and his tone unconsciously became much tougher.
"As the main intelligence, it's not difficult for you to find a body that has been injected with Promote02. The Imperial Research Institute has plenty of them. But finding a high-ranking male insect body that has also been injected with Promote02's purified potion and can fully absorb your energy without breaking down is much more difficult."
"You have to be me!"
"I admire you. You're truly worthy of being the Insect King. You're truly scheming." Middleton clapped his hands. One moment he was smiling, and the next he stared at Hoover Walker with a sinister expression. "Choosing you just means I don't have to waste too much time. It doesn't mean I must have you."
"You absolutely must have me!" Hoover Walker stiffened his neck, no longer caring about his dignity. His eyes were red as he growled through gritted teeth, "You can't wait! Have you forgotten your mortal enemy?"
After saying this, Middleton narrowed his eyes.
Hoover Walker was just taking a gamble, but when he saw Middleton's reaction, he knew he had made the right bet.
The mortal enemy that Middleton mentioned is still alive, in some corner of this world. Middleton is very afraid of his "mortal enemy".
As long as he could delay the time and wait for Middleton's mortal enemy to come, he might still have a way out.
At that time, no matter whether Middleton is killed by his "mortal enemy", or Middleton and his "mortal enemy" die together, or his "mortal enemy" is defeated by Middleton, he will no longer be manipulated by Middleton.
Because if Middleton lived, he wouldn't necessarily die, but it was impossible for Middleton to kill his "mortal enemy" without any injury. As long as Middleton was weak, he didn't believe that Middleton could still control him.
Even if Middleton was killed by his "mortal enemy", he might not die. He and Middleton were originally two consciousnesses. If Middleton died, he could naturally take back control of his body.
Even if he was unlucky and died with Middleton, it was still better than giving up now. If he didn't give up, there was still hope. If he gave up, he would go to hell immediately.
Moreover, Middleton's goal is consistent with his. The greater the risk, the greater the reward. There is no such thing as 100% success in the world.
It's worth a gamble.
After figuring this out in a split second, Hoover Walker struck while the iron was hot: "I just want you to retain my consciousness. That way I can't interfere with what you do. If anything goes wrong during your battle with your mortal enemy, I can still find a way to help you recover later."
"You must know that only I can fully control the Zerg Empire. Although you can control all intelligent machines, if you want to dismantle the intrigues among us intelligent creatures, you have to kill us all."
Kill them all? Of course not.
Middleton never thought of killing all living things. Although artificial intelligence is developing rapidly and seems to be omnipotent, it has fatal flaws.
They will never be able to reproduce, evolve, and innovate like intelligent creatures with flesh and blood. When the Creator created these lives, he engraved the secret of evolution in their genes. This is an area that artificial intelligence cannot reach no matter how quickly iterates.
He had to keep these creatures to continue to support him. He wanted to enslave them and make them serve him unconditionally. Otherwise, what fun would it be even if he dominated the world?
Moreover, his mortal enemy has a heart of a saint. He kept these creatures to threaten his mortal enemy and wanted to see what choice he would make this time.
"Okay, then it's as you wish." Middleton's mouth curled up and disappeared in an instant.
Hoover Walker felt a black screen before his eyes and a burst of pain in his head, as if a burred stick was piercing straight into his brain from the top of his head and stirring it vigorously.
The pain was so excruciating that Hoover Walker couldn't utter a single sound. Veins bulged on his forehead, tears and blood streamed from the corners of his eyes, and his entire body twisted and struggled on the luxurious carpet stained black and red with blood.
After an unknown amount of time, Hoover Walker stopped struggling and his eyes slowly closed.
When he opened his eyes again, a gleam of brilliance flashed across them. He stood up gracefully, wiped the blood and tears from his face with the corner of his clean clothes, and laughed softly.
The laughter grew louder and louder, and the intelligent machines that were fighting fiercely with the Silver Wing Brigade and the Royal Guards seemed to have received an order and all stopped attacking.
The Silver Wing Brigade, having gotten a respite, looked warily at the intelligent machine that had just gone crazy, and it took them a long time to react.
"They have stopped, where is your Majesty?"
"Go and protect His Majesty!"
Before he finished speaking, Hoover Walker walked out slowly, looking at the embarrassed guards, his eyes moving around, no one knew what he was thinking, and his aura rose with every step he took.
The Silver Wing Brigade is the Insect King's closest guard. Failing to detect the danger in the first place is already a serious crime. After the battle stops, not going to the Insect King in the first place is adding insult to injury.
Seeing the Insect King come out, his momentum was still rising. The surviving guards of the Silver Wing Brigade suddenly felt weak in the knees and knelt on the ground together.
The "Insect King" did not stop, walked up to the captain, pulled out the laser ray gun in his hand, turned around and left.
All the guards were worried about the "Insect King's" behavior. When they were trembling with fear and didn't know what to do, the "Insect King" suddenly turned around and shot.
Bang--
The captain of the Silver Wing Brigade's head exploded like a watermelon, and bright red blood mixed with white brain matter sprayed on the faces, eyes, and mouths of the surrounding guards.
The guards said: "Your Majesty, spare my life."
The Insect King looked at the guards kneeling on the ground and begging for mercy for a long time, then laughed wildly. This long-lost feeling of being a superior made his whole body tremble.
"No wonder you'd rather shed your essence than possess a physical body. This feeling has been so long since I last felt it. Since you and I have been entangled for two lifetimes, let's see who will win in this life."
*
"A-choo——" Nan Qi sneezed loudly.
Bai immediately turned his gaze from the large screen in the command center to Nan Qi: "What's wrong?"
Nan Qi rubbed his sore nose: "It's okay, my nose is itchy. How's the battle going?"
Murphy came over and put his arm on Nan Qi's shoulder: "Thanks to your foresight, otherwise we would have been killed by the intelligent army by now."
Murphy said something. Although the battle was intense, he seemed to be in a good mood.
So many days have passed, and he has long since come to terms with it. If it weren't for Nan Qi, they would probably have been wiped out, their country would have been in jeopardy, and they would have become slaves of intelligence.
Although there are sacrifices now, they are all defending their country and are heroes.
A soldier's mission is to defend the country. As long as the country is safe and sound, the sacrifice is worth it.
Three months ago, Middleton, wearing the skin of Hoover Walker, appeared in front of the whole world, announced the beginning of the era of intelligence dominating the world, and declared war on the whole world.
At the same time, countries with weak military power were invaded by the intelligent army and fell one after another. Their citizens were enslaved by intelligence and produced intelligent chips and shells day and night, and the intelligent army increased infinitely.
The intelligent army knows no fatigue, feels no pain, and will never die. If it weren't for the limitations of materials and energy that prevent the mass production of high-precision intelligent machines, countries wouldn't even have a chance to fight.
Even so, the struggles of the nations were no different from the desperate struggles of trapped beasts. The introduction of the Mastermind-related systems by the nations back then had indeed planted hidden dangers. This intelligence could clearly discern the weaknesses of each nation's military defenses, allowing it to precisely strike at them.
Not only that, Middleton has also developed a new type of nanorobot. These robots, which are smaller than dust particles, can invade the bodies of living beings through the eyes, mouth, nose, ears, and even wounds like bacteria, becoming nails wedged into the army.
Then when an explosion is needed, it will directly turn its host into a flesh and blood bomb.
Soon, the disadvantages of being flesh and blood began to emerge: they would get tired, get injured, and even die.
The long-term confrontation between the two armies, coupled with the lack of weapons, ammunition and energy, they are almost unable to hold on, relying solely on their flesh and blood bodies and mechas connected to their mental power to resist.
At this moment, the anti-bandit joint army appeared out of nowhere and began to take over the battle. Countries began to fight together and gradually rescued some planets. They then connected these planets with the black market to produce energy and mecha weapons to supply the battlefield in front.
This war lasted for three months. The Zerg army achieved remarkable results in this battle. The Zerg army's superpowers, which were the same as those of the experimental subjects, shocked the soldiers from various countries who fought together.
They had no idea where these powerful Zerg soldiers came from. They also saw male Zergs of both high and low levels among them.
Killing enemies on the high-level battlefield and transporting supplies on the low-level battlefield are just a matter of course, but it gave them a shot in the arm.
Ai You even worked together with Bai Li and quickly drove Middleton out of the central star.
Standing on the devastated central planet, Nan Qi and Bai felt complicated.
They seemed to have quickly driven Middleton and his intelligent army out of the central star, but there were still many planets outside the central star, and many countries were in dire straits.
However, they did manage to recapture a central hub planet, and the joint army's headquarters was set up on a satellite planet near the central planet.
Supplies are transported through the central star to front lines around the world.
In the first month, they had both wins and losses, but the losses were more than the wins. The battle line was stretched too far by Middleton, and they were exhausted.
Fortunately, Nan Qi has not been idle during this period. He has been running around, rescuing experimental subjects in various laboratories and persuading them to join the army to resist intelligence.
No one knew how Nan Qi convinced them, but the addition of such a powerful force immediately boosted the morale of the rebels, and they won several battles in succession, which greatly boosted their morale.
Then Nan Qi disappeared, and Bai didn't know where he went.
It was half a month later when he appeared again.
Nan Qi appeared beside Bai covered in blood. He was so weak that he fainted in Bai's arms.
If Pu Bo had not only found that Nan Qi had lost too much blood and had no other injuries, let alone was not in danger of life, Bai would have gone to fight Middleton.
However, since then, the Zerg army in the resistance army seemed to be cast under some kind of magic, and its strength increased dramatically, leading the resistance army to defeat the intelligent army.
The first and second times, the rebels didn't think there was anything wrong, but the third and fourth times, they felt something was wrong.
Fearing that it was a trap set by Middleton, they slowed down their attack. It was not until Nan Qi woke up that they gave the order for an all-out attack. Only then did they vaguely understand what Nan Qi had done, which allowed them to always have the upper hand in the confrontation with the intelligent army.
However, even so, they still fought hard for more than a month and lost countless compatriots before they forced the intelligent army led by Middleton into the Kron galaxy, becoming the turtle in the jar.
Their base camp also returned to the planet where they were stationed when they were fighting the bandits.
The planet still bears traces of the battle with the thieves three months ago. After learning that they were abandoned by Middleton, the thieves reluctantly turned their hostility into friendship and joined the army against intelligence.
Because the Star Beast Kingdom has a strong military force and a large number of technologies are "imported", they are unable to cope with the sudden rebellion of intelligence and become the only powerful country to suffer serious damage.
The Beast King died under the heavy siege of the intelligent army. The second prince was appointed to become the new Beast King and struggled to support the country. The third prince, Scott, was the only one who survived because he was leading the beast-stealing group outside.
It became a joke among the Zerg during their rare rest time.
Scott became even more irritable because of this, but fortunately he was not stupid and knew that if he did not find allies, the Star Beast Tribe might face the disaster of genocide.
But he couldn't beg for mercy from the Zerg. In addition, due to the evil deeds of the Star Beastmen, most countries avoided them and did not want to cooperate with them.
In the end, Scott could only apply to become a mobile team to cooperate with the large force in combat.
Today is the tenth day of their siege of the intelligent army.
After so many days of harassment and siege, most of the energy of the intelligent army has been consumed. Today is the last chance for the intelligent army to break out. If they don't break out, they will be trapped and die in the Kron Galaxy, and their "corpses" will become new decorations in the Kron Galaxy's rocky belt.
Nan Qi was in much better condition today. Bai wanted to let Nan Qi take a rest, but Nan Qi insisted on coming to the command center to observe the battle situation. Bai couldn't persuade Nan Qi, so he had to bring him to the command center.
As soon as Nan Qi stepped into the command center, he instantly attracted the attention of all living beings.
The commanders-in-chief of the armies of all parties saluted Nan Qixing at the same time, carefully observing this male insect who was of great significance to this war.
Bai and Murphy kept Nan Qi's true identity a secret, but they did not hide the fact that it was Nan Qi who "cracked" Middleton's control intelligent program. They also knew that it was Nan Qi who made the God of Victory tilt the balance towards them.
The commanders of various countries knew that it was Nan Qi who gave them the opportunity to resist. They were very grateful to Nan Qi and issued a gag order on the matter.
After all, if they were Middleton and knew that Nan Qi could ruin their plans, they would definitely try their best to kill Nan Qi to eliminate future troubles.
Whether for the sake of future victory in the war or to repay a favor, they cannot betray Nan Qi.
Nan Qi knew what the commanders of various countries were thinking. He curled his lips, but couldn't smile. He thought he had long been accustomed to killing and war, but he found that he would never get used to it.
The loss of life meant that families were plunged into endless suffering. He had seen too many people tortured by war and became like the walking dead.
Living is more painful for them than death. In the endless sorrow of death and the fear of impending death, they can't see any hope at all.
As if sensing the deep sadness coming from Nan Qi, Murphy, who was rough but delicate, patted Nan Qi on the shoulder and smiled heartily:
"Brother, cheer up. Don't overthink it. Everything is fine now. We have hope and have learned a lesson. After this battle, there will be no more wars for at least a hundred years."
Murphy's voice was quite loud, and all the representatives from various countries heard it, and they couldn't help but look solemn.
They have decided that after this war, they will jointly sign a peace agreement. The specific content is still to be discussed, but they no longer want to repeat the same mistakes because of their selfishness.
Nan Qi nodded and walked to the side to sit down. Bai was a little worried and looked at him anxiously.
Nan Qi waved to Bai, and Bai immediately walked over. The representatives of each country turned their heads with great foresight, leaving space for the couple.
Bai sat next to Nan Qi and reached out to touch his forehead. He felt relieved when he found that the temperature was normal.
Seeing Bai so nervous, Nan Qi knew that he had scared them, and his heart felt both bitter and warm.
Holding Bai's hand, Nan Qi whispered, "I'm really fine."
Nan Qi had recovered a long time ago, but Bai was frightened by the sight of him covered in blood. She had been a little stressed these days and protected him like a porcelain doll.
Bai glared at him and said in a voice only the two of them could hear, "Don't think I don't know why you lost so much blood and why you are so extreme. Pu Bo is the same, and he even dared to help you secretly."
Nan Qi's blood is the main material of the promote02 potion. There is no need to explain the effect of the promote02 potion. Apart from the side effects of causing blood to surge and cause the body to explode, and the inability to stop taking the drug once used, as long as you can withstand it, your mental strength will increase greatly.
This side effect is nothing when Nan Qi recovers his memory and has a genius like Pu Bo around.
During the month that Nan Qi disappeared, he used himself as a power bank for the Zerg army, using his own blood to nourish the Zerg army's upgrades.
After Bai knew what Nan Qi had done, he felt indescribable in his heart. He was so uncomfortable that he couldn't breathe for a long time.
At that time, he had only one thought in his mind - Nan Qi was a god, and the god was biased towards him.
Nan Qi was exposed by Bai and guiltily changed the subject: "When do you think that guy will come out? Do I have to wear something stylish to meet him?"
Bai: "...Be serious, I don't want you to go out and see him."
Middleton and Nan Qi are old enemies. Nan Qi has ruined his plans several times, and Middleton probably hates Nan Qi to death.
When Bai thought of Middleton's hatred for Nan Qi, he didn't want them to meet.
Moreover, Middleton knew all of Nan Qi's identities. If he made these known, he would undoubtedly be feared by various countries.
This made Bai want to hide Nan Qi even more.
Nan Qi understood Bai's worries. He reached out and pinched Bai's nose bridge, saying gently, "Don't worry. He hates me to the core, but he still has the courage and bearing of a clan leader. Otherwise, my identity would have been known to the world long ago."
"You think quite highly of him." Bai muttered softly, and his cute look made Nan Qi laugh.
He rubbed Bai's hand and whispered, "Jealous?"
Bai looked at Nan Qi speechlessly. Nan Qi looked back and saw that everyone's attention was on the war and not paying attention to this side. He reached out and hugged Bai in his arms.
Bai Yijing was shocked and tried to break free, but Nan Qi held him even tighter.
Nan Qi whispered in Bai's ear, "A battle is destined to happen between him and me. This is to show respect for the strong, and also to end the hatred between us that has lasted for hundreds of thousands of years. Don't worry, I will win!"
Bai took a deep breath and hugged Nan Qi back: "Remember your promise to me!"
He couldn't stop Nan Qi from personally cutting off everything from the past, and could only silently pray that Nan Qi could return safely.
＊
There is never enough time for warmth. Outside, there is a raging war. Led by Lenk and Todd, the Rock Clan cooperates with the vanguard of the joint army to launch an all-out attack. It is like an indestructible blade that directly drives into the heart of the intelligent army, forcibly tearing a hole in the airtight defense line of the intelligent army.
The human race is on the left wing, the phantom race and the plant race are on the right wing, and the other races are in the backup, cooperating with the vanguard force.
The mobile forces took advantage of every opportunity and eventually trapped the intelligent army that had almost broken through into the rubble belt inside the Kron galaxy.
They were able to narrowly trap the fully-fired intelligent brigade thanks to the map provided by the thieves.
When driving the intelligent army into the Kron galaxy, Murphy asked Bai with a smile whether he had thought about driving the intelligent army into the Kron galaxy a long time ago, which was why he would attack, capture and confiscate the thieves' coalition army at all costs.
After all, we have to make room for the intelligent army, and we can also have a detailed map of the Kron galaxy.
The Kron Galaxy is located deep in the universe, with complex terrain and many dangers. Detailed maps are all made with lives. Even Middleton, the mastermind, does not have a detailed map of the Kron Galaxy.
This was what Nan Qi said himself after he regained his memory.
Why the omniscient mastermind didn't know the detailed map of the Kron Galaxy was unknown to them. But they had it anyway, and they trapped the intelligent army in the Kron Galaxy as they wished.
Now the time for a real decisive battle has arrived. Bai leads twelve commanders from various countries and personally appears at the forefront of the battlefield - outside the rocky belt of the Kron galaxy.
Bai was suspended in the air, wearing a military uniform, which made him look both majestic and handsome.
His ice-blue hair was a little long, draped over the octagonal epaulettes that gleamed with a cold light, adding a sharpness to his appearance that was hard to look at directly.
The pair of eyes that were usually pure black had now completely lost their disguise, and the depths of the pupils, which were the same ice blue as the hair, reflected the dark, messy, and bloody rock belt.
Two pairs of extremely beautiful, mysterious and dreamy wings slowly emerged behind it, flashing fine blue gradient light under the high-magnification searchlight.
As the wings flapped, the colors gradually faded away, and it looked like a phoenix tail with three long ribbons on each lower wing, fluttering in the strong wind, crushing all the "rocks" that were approaching.
In the intelligent warship, Middleton stared coldly at the beautiful and dangerous Bai on the big screen for a moment, then his gaze shifted to Shang Nanqi, a tall figure without wings, wearing an ordinary military uniform, but with a look and demeanor no worse than Bai.
Nan Qi's ankle-length hair stood up high, and his bright golden pupils kept shrinking and expanding like a cat in the alternation of strong light and darkness. He stared in one direction from beginning to end - the direction of the main camera used by the intelligent army to observe and grasp the battle situation, and looked at Middleton across the air.
As if he knew that Middleton was watching him through the camera, a playful smile slowly appeared at the corner of his lips, and his lips moved as he slowly spoke a language that only the two of them could understand.
"I found you. It's time to finally put an end to this between you and me."
This sentence was silent, but it "floated" into Middleton's ears intact through the ultra-high-definition screen.
Looking at Nan Qi's high-spirited appearance, Middleton's eyes were extremely calm, so calm that he didn't seem like someone who was forced into a desperate situation. Only the occasional twitching of the corners of his mouth revealed that he was not as calm as his eyes showed.
He is more like a crater hidden under the calm magma, waiting for the right time to burst and erupt, burying everything in the boiling lava.
Middleton had fought with Nan Qi so many times, and each time he was one step behind, and this time he was defeated especially quickly.
It was so fast that even though Middleton had witnessed the rise and fall of various races over the endless years, with one race destroyed and another rising, he could not accept his own "decline" so quickly.
It is obvious that they are living another life, so why can Nan Qi have a body, a lover, and friends? He can break away from his origin and make the intelligence born because of him willingly submit to him and help him restore his strength to its peak again.
And will I once again become a demon that is hated by everyone and worse than a rat in the gutter?
Why!
Middleton was unwilling to give up.
But more than being unwilling, Middleton didn't understand why Nan Qi always opposed him. In his first life, Nan Qi was a human, and he was the master of alien creatures.
They are enemies, like water and fire that cannot mix, so it is normal for them to fight to the death.
But in the second life, they both had the same main brain intelligence.
After Nan Qi discovered him, he did nothing at first, but when he wanted to control the world through the main brain, he began to sing a different tune from him.
In order to break him up, he even used the secret key left to him by Dr. Pansy to save his life, and locked his last remaining mental power in a "box" and threw it into the depths of the universe.
Unfortunately, Nan Qi calculated everything, but he could never predict the greedy nature that no intelligent creature can escape. By chance, he was discovered after a long time, and was preserved intact, and finally sent to the Zerg.
Pandora's box is magical and no one can resist it.
The "box" was opened and his stage rose, but unexpectedly, Nan Qi opposed him again.
Just for those greedy creatures that have nothing to do with them, they are willing to strip away their origins and disrupt his plans even if it means dying on the spot.
Why?
Wouldn't it be good to be the master of the world? Is it worth sacrificing yourself for those who are not worth saving?
When those creatures know their true identities, will they let them go?
Everyone wants to possess omnipotent artificial intelligence, yet everyone fears it. Didn't Nan experience this feeling when he was alive?
Middleton had asked Nan Qi this question more than once, but Nan Qi always sneered and said something to him lightly.
"You don't understand. A diverse and complex personality is the reason intelligent creatures can evolve so quickly to become the masters of the universe. This world wasn't created by us, so we have no right to interfere too much. If you try to interfere, I will stop you."
"You are a holy father!" Middleton felt that Nan Qi was too pedantic and his brain was overwhelmed by the so-called morality of mankind.
Who would remember his selfless dedication? In his previous life, he was treated as a mobile health pack and a wall that could block any danger.
Otherwise, Nan Qi would not have ended up dying together with him.
Therefore, he didn't understand why Nan Qi, who had experienced so much, still had such an infinite fondness and enthusiasm for this world.
He's going to ask!
Middleton slammed the table, stood up, and walked out with great strides.
Hoover Walker, who was still conscious, seemed to know what he was about to do. He shouted in Middleton's mind: "You are going out to die. This is my body. You can't take any risks!"
Middleton remained unmoved and continued to move forward, with two rows of guard robots following in neat steps behind him.
Hoover Walker felt his scalp tingle when he saw that Middleton was determined to leave:
"Ancestor, I call you Ancestor. As long as we have green mountains, we will never have to worry about having no firewood. You don't want to live, but I do. Otherwise, you admit defeat first and leave your origin to me. I will resurrect you later?"
Middleton turned a deaf ear to the sound and simply raised his hand to gently tap his solar plexus. Suddenly, a terrifying wave of energy surged through Middleton's spiritual sea, hurling itself at Hoover Walker's consciousness, which resided within it.
Amidst a burst of terrified shouts and curses, the waves of the spiritual sea subsided and Hoover Walker was truly dead.
This body belonged to Hoover Walker, but in the past three months it had already completely belonged to Middleton. The promote02 potion was completely absorbed by him, and he could erase Hoover Walker's consciousness at any time.
The reason why he still retains Hoover Walker's consciousness is simply because he feels lonely and thinks that he and Hoover Walker are of the same kind, but this does not mean that Hoover Walker covets his things.
Apart from the noisy flies, Middleton finally stepped out of the starship and stood face to face with Nan Qi.
This action scared Murphy. He didn't expect Middleton to really show up. In his impression, Middleton was cunning and cruel. How could he appear at the most dangerous moment when the two armies were fighting?
At this time, shouldn't he be waiting for an opportunity to escape and make a comeback?
However, when he saw Middleton's persistent eyes on Nan Qi, he suddenly understood.
It was Nan Qi who provoked Middleton's nerves, causing Middleton to come and see Nan Qi despite the danger.
Representatives from various countries who had the same doubts as Murphy did not know the old feud between Middleton and Nan Qi, so they did not understand what Middleton was up to.
Seeing that Middleton was able to withstand the turbulent winds of the Kron Galaxy and the pressure of the universe with the weak body of the Insect King, he immediately understood that Middleton was no longer the weakling Hoover Walker. He was a real killing weapon, the leader of the intelligent army, and the mastermind that almost caused their country to be destroyed.
This realization made the representatives of various countries nervous. They wanted to strangle Middleton on the spot, and their hateful eyes shot at Middleton like sharp arrows.
Middleton was not the type to sit still and wait for death. Naturally, he had to return the favor after being treated so well. His cold gaze swept across the faces of representatives from various countries.
Suddenly, he waved his sleeves, and countless nano-robots flew towards the representatives of various countries like a swarm of bees.
Representatives from various countries have witnessed the power of the nanorobots. The flesh and blood that were blown to pieces all show how powerful these omnipresent little robots are.
Some representatives immediately ordered a retreat, and some even acted in an ugly way, using their companions as shields and running for their lives, but were embarrassed to find that the nanorobots only stopped in front of them and did not invade their bodies.
Middleton watched this farce with sarcasm. After enjoying it for a while, he waved his sleeves, recalled the nanorobots, and pointed at those hypocritical representatives and said:
"See? They're all the same. Is this the world you want to protect? They only hurt you, and I won't. Why are you helping them fight against me?!"
Middleton's words were incoherent and incomprehensible, causing the representatives to whisper among themselves, all guessing who the "you" in Middleton's words was. Only Bai and Murphy looked at Nan Qi worriedly.
Nan Qi stood beside Bai, tall and graceful, his long hair flying wildly in the howling wind, his golden eyes as bright as a burning white dwarf.
He turned his head to look at Bai, shook his head gently, and the tenderness in his eyes was about to overflow: "Don't worry, leave it to me."
Before he finished speaking, Nan Qi took a step forward, and the sky and the earth suddenly changed color. A deep and clear voice resounded throughout the world: "Middleton, I have seen countless things you asked me to see over the years, but you have never seen what I asked you to see."
The representatives were shocked. They knew that Nan Qi was powerful, but they didn't know that he and Middleton actually knew each other. It was clear that Middleton still had feelings for Nan Qi.
The representatives looked at each other, all appearing shocked, but only they knew what they were thinking in their hearts.
Nan Qi didn't care at all about the undercurrent caused by his acquaintance with Middleton. He walked towards Middleton step by step. As he walked, a huge shadow appeared out of thin air behind him and slowly solidified.
When he was ten steps away from Middleton, the shadow behind him completely solidified, and a giant beast with nine tails appeared in front of the two armies.
The giant beast's nine tails moved rhythmically, its pure black fur was completely hidden in the black, and its huge eyes slowly opened. Its golden pupils, like Nan Qi's, were like burning flames, with long tails trailing out from the ends of its eyes.
After the giant eyes opened, a tremendous pressure swept across the battlefield, and the entire space shattered like glass.
The giant beast's nine tails stood up, and hollow holes appeared on the tips of its tails.
The rubble belt was impacted by the aura of the void and fell directly into the space that had just shattered. In just a moment, the rubble belt that had caused headaches for all countries collapsed.
Such an unscientific scene was played out before their eyes. Both armies were silent, and only Nan Qi's voice could be heard slowly flowing in this vast space.
"Middleton, you will never understand what's in my heart, so be a warrior and finish this with me. You know you haven't recovered yet, but I won't hold back."
Middleton narrowed his eyes, and after a moment, he said, "As you wish."
Middleton's reply was like a stone dropped into a calm lake, causing ripples within the resistance. Bai directly ordered the army to retreat, and took the lead in leading the troops to retreat under the puzzled gazes of the representatives.
Murphy followed closely behind, and the intelligent army also began to retreat in an orderly manner.
Some national representatives were puzzled and thought that this was giving the other side a chance to retreat, so they were pulled away.
After they retreated to a safe distance, they activated the highest level of defense system in front of the army, and the battle between Nan Qi and Middleton officially began.
Nan Qi flew to the top of the nine-tailed beast and looked at Middleton with a burning gaze. Suddenly, a fiery red light exploded in the sky, illuminating the entire space. Murphy's eyes widened and he cried out in surprise, "Look, what is that?"
Where the light and shadow passed, in addition to the giant beast that seemed to make people's heart and liver burst at the sight of it, there was also a towering tree.
No, it’s not a tree, but a giant vine that cannot be described in words!
Thousands of vines spread out, without a single leaf on them, only huge, strange blood-red flower buds.
The buds opened, revealing pitch-black holes.
At the same time, the terrifying pull of gravity caused a drastic shift in the surrounding space. In that instant, time, space, and light were distorted, suddenly turning black. All living beings seemed to be lost in the endless darkness of space, unable to see or hear anything except their own heartbeats.
After an unknown amount of time, a ray of light tore through the dark space, and they were finally able to see what had happened.
The vine buds opened, and Middleton's black hole gravity was fully activated. Everything around was pulled by the black hole, and could no longer maintain its original shape and was swallowed by the black hole.
At this moment, the nine-tailed beast opened its huge mouth and a tremendous amount of energy spurted out. After being sucked into the black hole, it burst the black hole, tore the black hole space apart, and forced the black hole's gravity to recover.
At the same time, the vines that covered the sky and the sun tightly wrapped around the giant beast, and the opened flower buds gnawed at the giant beast's body.
The beast seemed oblivious to this, its nine tails whirling and slicing through the vines like sharp blades. With each cut, a rift opened in the air, swallowing the broken vines and instantly returning to their original state.
When there were only a few vines left entangled with the giant beast, the beast gave up cutting them and slammed its huge body into the main trunk of the vines. At the same time, the Nine-Tailed Void Cave opened and huge black energy balls rushed towards the main trunk that was firmly protected by the vines.
Boom boom boom——
One shot after another of precise strikes, coupled with the flexible cat tail that shuttled through the void and released energy blades, quickly tore a hole in the defense in front of the giant vine.
The giant beast saw the right moment and pressed forward again, not giving the main vine a chance to react. It used its body to block the vines and defend itself, while crossing its sharp claws across its chest - and tore them apart fiercely!
hiss--
The painful roar like thunder shook the entire space. The giant vine was injured in a vital part, and the vines couldn't help but "sweep" wildly. Anything that still existed around was entangled by them and crushed into powder.
The highest level of defense was shattered by this sound. The huge shock wave made the rebels' ears ring, and they continued to retreat in panic.
It was not until this moment that they finally understood that such a battle was not something they could participate in, and that Nan Qi's combat power was not something they could calculate or even imagine.
When facing Nan Qi, they can only look up to him obediently, but with Nan Qi's Zerg, they will probably truly become the masters of the universe in the future.
The representatives had mixed feelings, but the battle continued.
The beast tore through the giant vine's trunk, ripping out its core energy core. Sensing death approaching, the vine fiercely resisted. Thousands of vines swung, sweeping away everything, but in the end, they were like an ant trying to shake a tree, and the beast pulled out its core energy core.
The giant vine suddenly disappeared, and Middleton staggered out, his chest torn open, and his beating heart was gone.
The giant beast disappeared, and Nan Qi landed in front of Middleton, with a red and green "heart" suspended in his palm.
"You lost." Nan Qi's voice was calm.
"Why? Why are you so strong, stronger than before!" Middleton's eyes were about to burst.
He didn't understand. He had lost his original body due to Nan Qi's scheme, but he had completely merged with Hoover Walker's body, and had also used the evolution potion made from Nan Qi's blood. This body was infinitely close to his original body.
Nan Qi's body is not his own either, so why is there such a big gap between them!
Nan Qi looked at him pitifully and said slowly: "It seems that you still don't understand. I am strong because I have what you don't have. You can only see yourself, but I have partners. They will make me stronger."
Nan Qi turned his head to look in the direction of the resistance army and smiled warmly. He then looked at his palm.
The heart in the palm of his hand was still beating, and Nan Qi slowly closed his palm: "Middleton, this time I really have to say goodbye."
"Goodbye!"
Then, Nan Qi squeezed it hard.
Puff——
An extremely slight explosion sounded, and Middleton's body was blown away by the wind, carrying with him his confusion and unwillingness, and completely disappeared between heaven and earth.
The intelligent army lost the control of their commander, regained control of their bodies, collectively laid down their weapons, and surrendered to Nan Qi.
Nan Qi stood in front of the army of thousands of intelligent beings, like the god of creation.
*
One month later, the central star.
The heads of state from various countries gathered on the Central Star for the first time. They made an exception and came here not only to congratulate the new Zerg emperor on his registration, but also to sign a space peace agreement.
The agreement contains hundreds of provisions, including friendly exchanges among countries, autonomy of mechanical intelligence, autonomy of experimental subjects, international experiment conventions, war conventions, and anti-bandit conventions, to restrain the evil ambitions of various countries.
What surprised the leaders of various countries was that Nanqi Aide, who turned the tide in the war, did not become the new Insect King. Instead, he was succeeded by the former Insect King's second son, Gos Walker.
It is said that during this battle, the Second Prince was in charge of the Zerg Empire, dispatching energy and armaments in an appropriate manner. He also abolished the laws that respected males over females, allowing citizens of the empire to enjoy equal treatment.
He also dealt with the eldest prince's illegal experiments and the third prince's collusion with foreign countries.
As a result, he won the hearts of the people, and with the support of his uncle Prince Keppel and the military Marshal Ayou Percy and Admiral Bai Smellide, naturally no other prince dared to challenge him, and could only watch the second prince sit on the throne of the Insect King.
However, Nan Qi did not go on the day when the second prince ascended the throne.
Not only Nan Qi didn't go, Bai didn't go either.
The couple left without saying goodbye and went on their honeymoon.
Since the couple got married, they have not had a peaceful day. Although there is a lot of work to be done now, they don’t have to worry about the rest.
With Keppel taking care of the rectification and Aiyou taking care of the military affairs, they can finally have a good rest.
So the young couple drove their own little starship away on this day of national jubilation.
Inside the starship, Nan Qi and Bai were cuddling on the bed.
Afterwards, Bai's beautiful wings drooped limply, and the furry tail was wrapped around Bai's wings, wrists, ankles and thin waist.
It looked just like the first time they met.
Nan Qi kissed Bai's lips lightly and rubbed his sweaty face. After a long time, he showed a bright smile.
"white."
"Um?"
"It's great to have you."
Bai stretched out his arms and hugged Nan Qi's broad back, his hoarse voice unable to hide his tenderness: "Me too."
How lucky I am to meet you.
Let us walk through the rest of our lives hand in hand.
