Chapter 76 Chapter 76 "Report to the commander, the front line has observed...

“A-choo!”

The silver-haired male insect wrinkled his nose and sneezed twice in succession toward the window, scaring away several birds standing on a branch not far away.

"Frozen?" Angus closed the wide-open window. "The climate on Earth is very changeable. It's only been hot for a few months, and suddenly it's cold. It's really strange."

The planets where the orcs and higher Zerg live have the same climate. The temperature of the Oaks Empire remains at around 40 degrees all year round, while the temperature of the Zerg planet remains at a low of 3 or 4 degrees all year round.

The orcs and higher insects have long evolved bodies that can adapt to the temperature of the surrounding environment. Even in extreme climates, they can survive normally without feeling any discomfort.

But this does not mean that they cannot feel the changes in climate and temperature.

When experiencing the transition between summer and autumn for the first time on Earth, Angus was shocked when he woke up, opened the window, and felt the cold wind blowing in his face and the green leaves turning a little burnt yellow.

There is a strange beauty.

"It's not that cold today. I can't freeze anywhere. I'm not that fragile." Gal pinched his nose with his fingers and shook it repeatedly. "Someone is saying bad things about me behind my back."

The Zerg didn't seem to have high requirements for the temperature of the surrounding environment. Ever since taking over the body of this male insect, Gal had never caught a cold due to temperature changes.

I sneezed twice in succession without any warning, and my earlobes felt so hot that they seemed to be steamed. All these signs were consistent with a certain saying of humans.

"Why do you say that?" The little male insect's ears were too rosy, especially the thick earlobes which were bright red. Angus pinched them with his fingers out of curiosity.

Normally, he would only see the little male insect's ears so red at one time, and that was... when the two of them were being intimate in private.

"In the society I live in, there's a saying that if you sneeze once, someone is thinking of you, twice, someone is scolding you, and three times, someone is talking about you behind your back." The earlobe was pinched and became even hotter.

"You lived in an interesting society," said Angus.

“There are some ideological conflicts among different classes, countries and organizations, but everyone is working to make our planet a better place. At least in the country where I lived at the time, ordinary people didn’t have to worry about food and drink.” Gal was full of pride when thinking back to the country where he had lived for more than 20 years.

"The country you once lived in, love your people very much." Angus grinned, thinking of the country he was forced to flee.

"Hmm, that's itchy." Gal turned his head away, trying to avoid the big hand that was pinching his earlobe like a stress-relieving toy.

When I turned my head, I accidentally met Angus's dark brown pupils. He blinked pitifully, as if he was confessing to me with his eyes.

Gal quickly surrendered to the gaze and took the initiative to put his earlobe into the hand of the blond cat. "Okay, okay, keep pinching it, but don't be too hard."

"Your ears are obviously more comfortable to touch, they are more furry."

So, the two Gaia leaders, the current supreme leaders of the Earth, hid in the corner and rubbed each other's ears.

Looking at the azure blue sky outside the window, Gal's expression became even gentler.

When he and Angus first arrived at the planet, the sky was vaguely covered with a layer of oily mist, as if the sky was coated with a layer of poor quality film.

Occupied by mutated monsters and covered with mutated plants, Gal, who traveled from the 21st century, didn't even realize that the strange land under his feet was his home where he had lived for many years.

After more than a year of hard work by the Gaian people to build the planet they live on, the Earth, which had been riddled with holes from radiation and war, has finally been cleaned up and is somewhat like it was before.

"When Gaia develops better in the future, we must remember to preserve the beauty of nature. The earth does not belong only to highly intelligent creatures. It is our arrival that has destroyed the living environment of the indigenous animals."

"The earth is so beautiful in its original state. I will never allow anyone to destroy the balance between nature and life."

Steam engines, electricity, cars, atomic bombs, wars, skyscrapers, rockets, the search for extraterrestrial civilizations...

It took only three hundred years for humans to develop and expand rapidly and become the most powerful creatures on earth.

This is achieved at the cost of a destroyed biological chain and damaged nature.

Gal wants to redevelop a human-dominated civilization on Earth. He doesn't want humans to repeat the same mistakes and become a life that troubles nature and is punished by the Earth.

"The Oaks Empire was once one of the top three planets in the universe in terms of vegetation coverage." Looking at the scenery in front of him composed of emerald green and golden plants, Angus was filled with emotion.

"Aren't orcs the most intelligent life forms that are closest to nature?" Gal asked.

"In their quest for the most powerful position in the universe, the leaders of our species have gradually forgotten who they are."

"They killed plants that had lived for thousands of years with drugs, and the green land became their military headquarters where they placed weapons and trained soldiers. The beastmen living in the jungle were forced to live in cold high-rise buildings."

"In the current Oaks Empire, the places with the most greenery are the various entertainment venues for the upper class to relax."

The resources that belonged to the entire orc race were plundered by the upper class and became the exclusive property of a small group of people standing at the top of the pyramid.

Ordinary orcs became animals locked in cages, and could only exchange certain things they could for the brief moments of contact with nature.

"Tsk, capitalists everywhere are all the same." Gal complained through gritted teeth.

"Capitalist? What is that? There are no creatures of this species in the Oaks Empire."

"Oh no, dear, capitalists are not a race, they are ..."

Just when Gal was about to give his lover some knowledge about humans on Earth, a huge elliptical black shadow appeared above the blue sky and almost covered the entire Gaia, and the world before his eyes was instantly shrouded in gray and black.

"Aren't the warships of the First Zerg Legion guarding outside? How did these warships get into their defense range?"

The silver-haired male insect's upper body leaned out of the window, his hands resting on the window sill, his feet dangling in the air.

This is a very dangerous move. If your hands lack strength, you can easily fall out of the window.

Angus inserted his left hand into the male insect's waist and abdomen, and pulled the male insect, which was half out of the window, back to a safe area. "Bai Ye has been guarding the port with people. He knows the situation. Let's go back quickly."

Angus changed back to his beast form, let the male insect sit on him, and quickly ran back to Gal's office.

It would take a male insect at least 20 minutes to travel the distance using his two legs, but Angus in lion form only took five minutes.

"The situation is urgent. Your communicators are not working. Where are His Highness and the general?"

"General Bai's soldiers are already on high alert, waiting for our response."

The orc warriors were pacing around the door in panic.

The lion king with golden mane jumped up from the stairs, his sharp claws landed on the tile floor, crushing large pieces of bricks.

Despite the great impact, the male insect sitting on him sat firmly and was not thrown off.

"Your Highness, General, you two are finally back." Seeing this, two or three beast soldiers and Aiden came forward to greet them.

Gal jumped down from the lion, which had already controlled its size.

"Let's talk inside." After the little male insect stood firmly, Angus changed back into human form.

"Where do those space battleships in the sky come from?" Gal sat on his oversized pressure-reducing office chair, exerted force on his waist, and sat facing the window.

"Your Highness, those are either other warships that broke in, or the Zerg warships that have been guarding outside for more than a month."

Could it be that the emperor of the Zerg has discovered that he and Lacerda have formed a cooperative relationship, and he can't stand it anymore, so he is preparing to send troops to attack the earth?

"The warships they had stationed outside the Earth suddenly started moving ten minutes ago, but they were not attacking the Earth, but moving away from it."

As the orc soldiers reported, the shadow in the sky became smaller and smaller.

Those battleships were indeed moving away from Earth.

"Aiden, where's Russell?" Gal asked.

"The Third Prince asked me for permission to go to the library. He should be in the city library now." Aiden sensed the male insect's uneasy aura. "Should I ask the Third Prince to come back as soon as possible?"

It would be fine if those warships outside just left the galaxy, but if they wanted to take any other actions, they would need the cooperation of Russell, the third prince of the Zerg.

"Hurry up Russell."

"Yes, Your Highness." Aiden's speed was so fast that his figure was blurred.

Aiden went to look for Russell. We couldn't just sit there and wait. Angus contacted Bo at the front line, "What's the situation with the Zerg battleship?"

"The warships retreated to the position of Venus and seemed to have stopped moving. Our probes are still observing."

"Not moving? What on earth do those guys want to do?" Gal looked up into the air.

His mental tentacles spread all over Gaia were frantically conveying a message to him - the residents of Gaia were in panic because of the huge shadow behind the clouds.

And this panic sentiment continues to spread.

"What do you think that is? Is it an alien spaceship?"

In the fields, in the factories, on the construction sites, taking care of children at home, in school...

People took to the streets and looked up at the sky.

"Is there going to be another alien invasion?"

Someone in the crowd said this, and people began to panic, with some showing despair on their faces.

"We have finally lived a stable life. No way, we have to start all over again."

"Mom, will we die? Where is Dad? Let's go find him. If we are all together as a family, I won't be afraid of death."

The tender voices of children echoed among the crowd.

The children who should have been full of hope said the word "death" calmly, as if they had already foreseen that this day would come.

If we are invaded by aliens again this time, humans will disappear completely from the earth.

*

"No, what are you little humans afraid of? They are just aliens, and alien battleships, right?"

"Look carefully. The young master who lives and works with you all day is an alien, isn't he? Also, isn't the place where His Highness Gal lives a battleship from the higher-level insect race?"

A puff of smoke appeared around the young man, and his handsome human head turned into a shark head with gills. Combined with his still human body, it looked very strange.

However, this "alien" whose appearance is very different from that of humans is not a foreign race that invades the earth.

With his shark head that looked out of place among the humans around him, he grinned widely, revealing rows of sharp teeth.

"Mom, does uncle know magic?" The twins hid behind their mother, poking their little heads out, their brown-black pupils full of curiosity.

Hearing the voice of the human child, the arrogant alien man with his hands on his hips and one foot on a large rock froze and slowly retracted his hands and feet stiffly.

Perhaps fearing that he might scare the children, the man shrank his neck and changed his shark head back to its original shape.

But there was a suspicious blush on the cheeks when it turned back into human form.

"Yes, we now have His Highness Gal, General Angus, and alien companions who have come to you from all over the world. The Earth is not so easy to bully."

Human beings' fear of aliens comes from past experiences.

At that time, humans were an inferior civilization that could only be slaughtered at the mercy of others. In just three days, they suffered indiscriminate massacres by alien invaders. The fear of aliens was deeply ingrained in the genes of the humans who survived the massacre.

Today, with the protection of the double S-rank male insects and the former war god general of the Oaks Empire, the earth has become a safe haven for many wanderers.

"We have powerful weapons and sufficient ammunition, as well as companions from all races in the universe who are rich in combat experience." A man with a badge of the head of the XX department on his chest climbed up the large rock in front of him.

He raised his hands, attracting the attention of his compatriots around him.

"Everyone, the Earth now has the strength to fight against the enemy. For the sake of our families and children, we must stand up bravely, take up arms, and resist all invaders who try to destroy our happy lives."

The magnificent speech ignited the fire in people's hearts to fight the enemy to the death.

From men to children, there was no longer confusion and fear in everyone's eyes, but a determination to die.

"Dad, I'm not afraid. If the enemy comes, I will protect you and mom."

"Just like His Highness protects us."

If the shark orc who stood up was the one who broke the first piece of glass, then the human supervisor woke up most of the confused humans, and the innocent voice of the child woke up all the sleeping humans.

The earth is their home. For the sake of their families, their children and the land under their feet, they must overcome the fear of alien races in their blood and fight the enemy with all their might.

Even if many of their companions would die, even if they were the one killed by the enemy's guns.

"Do you know about the First Legion's action?" Gal asked Russell, who was dragged to him from the city library by Aiden.

The situation was urgent, and Aiden probably didn't have time to say much to Russell on the way, and the female insect's eyes were full of confusion.

"Your Highness, I have not received any relevant news. Before I set out to Earth, I had never heard of the Zerg having any related plans."

The city library is on the seventh floor of this building. When Aiden found Russell, he was wearing noise-canceling headphones and reading a book called "The Physiological Structure of Humans on Earth".

From the library to the male insect office on the top floor, Russell had never been outside and was unaware of the abnormalities in the sky.

However, along the way he saw many humans in the building looking out of the windows, and combined with Aiden's anxious look when he found him, he could roughly guess that something must have happened on the Zerg side.

"I'll go back to the First Legion and get some information for you, Your Highness." Russell said.

"No, I don't know if that cunning old fox discovered something wrong with the Zerg's actions this time when he met you last time. It's too dangerous for you to go back."

Gal disapproves of Russell going alone into enemy territory.

"Knowing ourselves and our enemies will ensure victory in every battle. We really need to find out what the Zerg are planning." Angus had a different opinion.

The Zerg wanted to plant spies among them to pass on the information of the little male insect to the Zerg at any time. They took advantage of this and let Russell help them to gather information.

His little male insect is too kind. He can face danger himself but won't let others fall into danger.

"What the general said makes sense. Based on my understanding of him, he probably didn't notice anything wrong with me the last time we met. The sudden action of the First Legion must be the conspiracy of the Insect Emperor."

During his time on Earth, Russell was not a female insect that needed to take care of male insects, nor was he the third prince with an important responsibility. Humans just treated him as an ordinary person.

He felt equality and respect like never before.

The world that Lord Gal created on Earth is so beautiful that even if he can no longer enjoy this peace, he has to protect this paradise for the sake of other suffering female insects.

"Your Highness, all you need is a flying machine."

As for how to explain to the Zerg of the First Legion, Russell was already prepared.

*

"Why did Your Majesty suddenly ask us to leave Earth, but not let us go too far away?"

On the battleship of the First Legion, several female insect warriors who usually had a good relationship came out of the dormitory door and walked side by side.

"Not to mention that the mental power of these two S-rank male insects covers a wide range. The closer I am to His Highness Eli, the calmer I feel, and the fewer chaotic and violent thoughts I have in my head."

"Me too, me too. These days near the Earth are the most peaceful times I have ever had since I was born."

When they talked about the little male insects who could relieve their violent state without any action, all the female insect soldiers who heard their conversation gave them approving looks.

"But now my headache is starting again." The female insect covered her forehead with her hands, veins bulging in her temples.

"Me too, it seems that we are too far away from His Highness Eli, and His Highness's spiritual power can no longer cover us."

"Alas, I don't know what your Majesty is thinking. It would be great if we could always protect His Highness Eli. Even if we can't enter the Earth, I would be happy to be a gatekeeper outside."

The female soldier expressed the thoughts of most of the First Legion's warriors.

The thought that His Majesty might order them to invade the Earth, destroy the territory planet that they had painstakingly built, and harm His Highness Eli.

An emotion called "resistance" arises from the bottom of my heart.

"Your Majesty's orders are guiding our direction!" Commander Cas Dan had been listening behind the others for an unknown period of time. He shouted, "You guys, go run 500 laps around the training ground. You are not allowed to rest until you finish."

"Yes, General!"

"A warrior's duty is to obey. You only need to serve as a weapon that follows the orders of your superiors and are not allowed to question His Majesty."

"If I hear you question His Majesty again, get out of the First Legion. I don't need soldiers like you in my army."

"Yes, General, I will absolutely obey His Majesty the Insect Emperor!"

The female insect soldiers present were awakened by the shout and fled away one after another.

Seeing that all the female insects in the corridor had run away, Cass relaxed his shoulders, his eyes were no longer sharp, and he rubbed his temples with his fingers, "Your Majesty, you really gave me a big problem."

When he heard His Majesty's order, Cass was in a trance, and his soul seemed to float to another world.

The command to 'protect the male worm' is written into the female worm's genetic code. The moment she thinks of the precious little male worm being threatened with death, her heart feels like it's being pierced by thousands of sharp needles, causing her unbearable pain.

His Majesty ordered him to retreat outside the Earth and not to help no matter what happened on Earth.

As a soldier, he must obey the orders of His Majesty the Insect Emperor. As a female insect, he cannot bear to watch the male insects being pushed into danger.

The two emotions intertwined in his heart. As the commander of the First Legion, he was torn between his nature and his duty, and was the most miserable Zerg in the entire First Legion.

Sometimes, he fantasized that it would be great if he was not the oldest female in the Cass family.

"Sir, a spacecraft has flown out of the Earth's atmosphere." Cass's female insect adjutant ran over from a distance.

"Want some help?" The appearance of his female insect forced Cass to shoulder the burden of his position again.

His every move does not represent only himself, and his life does not belong to him alone.

The wealth and glory of the Cass family, the future of his younger brothers, and the status of his father are closely related to his choice.

"His Majesty has instructed that no life form must be allowed to leave the Earth. Pass on my order and order the vanguard troops to intercept the aircraft." Cass's eyes became calmer and more indifferent.

For him who is only loyal to His Majesty, he should not care about the safety of any life in this world except the one sitting on the throne.

Including two S-level small male insects.

"Reporting to the commander, the front line has observed that the aircraft is heading in our direction."
