The larvae had just hatched from their eggs, each one about the size of a child's palm, their flesh soft and tender, their antennae and legs barely formed. Their skin, charred and crispy by the scorching sun, was fragrant and soft within. They were truly a rare delicacy. Oakland and Hall devoured them one by one like a snack, still relishing the thought. Oakland couldn't help but regret that he would have dug out more larvae.
The black colt, who had finally finished chewing a piece of the insect's body, looked at the two of them with envy and hatred. He also wanted to eat the delicious snack...
"Ouch." Hall straightened up and shook his fur. He felt that his injuries had healed a lot, and as long as he didn't do strenuous exercise, he should be fine. He had to go out and check the communicators on his mecha and escape pod to see if they were still usable. At least he had to find a way to send a distress signal to let his family know he was still alive.
Although Oakland didn't know what Hall meant, they knew from his actions that he wanted to get out.
"Do you want to go out? I'll take you out. You can't go alone." Auckland quickly stopped him.
Hall turned his head to look at him, but did not try to be brave. After all, he was still a wounded soldier, and he was only in his infancy. The scorching temperature outside was not something that a little tiger cub like him could withstand.
Forget it. I've already been taken care of by my young fiancé for several days. It's no big deal to ask him to take care of me again, right?
Thinking of this, Hall nestled back into Auckland's arms and pointed his paw in a certain direction outside.
Oakland Laugher rubbed his chin against his soft fur, then carried the fur ball out of the cave. In order to prevent the fur ball from getting too hot, he not only used a piece of cloth to shade him from the sun, but also used magic to conjure up a few pieces of ice for him to cool down.
After the two, oblivious to the world, had left, displaying their affection, Quentin pulled himself up and scrambled to the other side of the cavern. He then began to devour the large, fragrant, roasted eggs. The Overlord was delicious, but it was too inconvenient for him to eat in his current beast form. These large, bite-sized eggs were more suitable for him. He wondered how this young herald was so talented, finding so many eggs in a place like this.
The little tiger cub lay in the arms of his fiancé, stretching out his paws as if to give orders, and asked Auckland to take him to the place where his mecha fragments and escape pod were found before.
His mech was completely destroyed, its communicator inoperable. Hall scraped his crest and a remaining energy stone from inside the mech; these were still usable. The escape pod, however, had only a large hole in its roof, but the built-in communicator was still functional. He crawled into the pod and used his claws to pry open the energy tank, removing the nearly spent energy stone and discarding it, replacing it with a complete one he had taken from the mech.
Auckland didn't expect that the energy stone used to drive the mecha and escape pod was actually a spirit stone full of spiritual power. No wonder the mecha could drive the emblem he made with runes.
As soon as Hall pressed the communication button, there was an immediate response from the other side. He first heard a burst of electrical noise, and then heard someone say, "The fifth team has completed the search and found no target."
"Team Eight has completed its search, no target found."
"Team Three encountered a swarm of insects! Requesting support!"
Then there was the sound of a fierce battle.
"Team Three, hold on, we'll be there soon!"
"Awoo, awoo, awoo!" Hall hurriedly pressed the call button, but his mouth became listless as he opened it, and he looked eagerly at Auckland behind him.
Auckland suppressed his laughter, leaned forward and pressed the call button, "Hello, can anyone hear me?"
Unfortunately, he repeated it several times but no one responded.
Hall thought that the collision might have caused the communication function to malfunction, so it could only receive but not send. However, at least he could hear the movement and knew that they were searching for them, so he felt relieved.
"Boom." At this time, there was a loud explosion in the distance. Hall and Oakland couldn't help but look in that direction. Could it be that the third team they had just communicated with was in that direction?
"Awooo!" Hall pointed in that direction with his claws.
Auckland immediately picked up the ball of fur and put it in his arms, then used his light body technique to rush towards the direction where the sound came from at the fastest speed.
Hall, a stern tiger face, squatted on Oakland's chest, the hair on his face blown back by the wind. This speed was comparable to that of an S-class combat master. It seemed that his fiancé had mutated completely...
Twenty minutes later, Auckland arrived near the battle site and saw dozens of mechas fighting fiercely with hundreds of worker insects. These worker insects seemed to be crazy and attacked the mecha warriors desperately.
Fortunately, the mecha fighters were well-trained and organized an effective counterattack, using energy cannons to kill most of the bugs, and then using Aurora Swords to fight the remaining bugs. However, these bugs were very cunning, and would often burrow underground when they were unable to defeat them, then emerge from behind the mecha fighters, making them very difficult to deal with.
At this moment, a bug emerged from behind Oakland. Hall, who had excellent hearing, immediately had all the hair on his body stand up and started to scream, "Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!"
Oakland was concentrating on watching the battle in front of him. After hearing Hall's warning, he immediately became alert. He turned around and kicked the insect that was rushing towards him with its mouth open. Then he used a light body technique to jump directly onto the back of the insect, put his hand on the insect's head, and used the concussion technique to blow its head into pieces.
After easily dealing with the worker insect, Auckland skillfully took out the energy handle, used the Aurora Dagger to cut open the insect corpse, and dug out the spirit stone from its stomach.
Hall's eyes widened. He had never imagined that all the energy stones Auckland had collected were actually dug out from the stomachs of insects. The next moment, his eyes widened even further as he watched in disbelief as Auckland pulled out several large white eggs from the insect's belly...
So this is how they've been getting their food these past few days? No wonder Auckland even caught the King Bug... I wonder if they took down their own nest...
I have to say that Hall's guess was quite accurate.
After Auckland collected what he needed, he set fire to the insect's body. He was now quite skilled at destroying evidence.
The mecha fighters also noticed Auckland at this time. They didn't associate him with their search target because the only person who matched the young man's appearance was a herald master with little combat power. Seeing Auckland's tattered protective suit, they simply thought he was another person stranded on this planet due to an accident. At first, when Auckland kicked a bug away, they thought he was a fighter with superb physical strength. But when he smashed the bug's head with a punch, they were stunned. You know, the shells of these bugs are very hard and can only be cut with Aurora weapons. It is definitely not something that ordinary strength can deal with. Isn't the power of this young fighter a bit too terrifying?
Oakland's subsequent insect dissection astonished them even more. This boy could actually use the energy handle directly? Was the energy handle he was using modified? Was it filled with energy stones? Did this boy make a living hunting insects on this planet?
Finally, Auckland's sudden burst of fire completely shocked the mecha fighters. Could this man be a descendant of the extinct flamingo? Only flamingo orcs, through their racial innate talent, could possess the power to control fire.
Auckland had no idea what these people were thinking. The bugs didn't distinguish between him and the mecha. Judging the human's size, they were weaker, and so they all attacked him. Auckland released his spiritual sense, easily observing the movements underground. He wielded his Aurora Sword with great force, each strike accurately piercing a bug. His speed was incredibly fast, and his attack power was so strong that he was even slightly more powerful than the mecha.
For a moment, the whole place was silent.
Even Hall, who was held in Oakland's arms, looked confused. He seemed to have underestimated his young fiancé again...
Most of the bugs had been dealt with by the mecha fighters using energy cannons, and there were only dozens of bugs left. Oakland quickly dealt with these bugs and then gutted them one by one, reaping a rich harvest.
"Haha, there are so many things." Oakland pulled Hall out of his arms and kissed him hard.
At this time, other support teams arrived hurriedly.
"What's going on? Where are those Zerg?" a mecha combat division asked nervously.
Everyone silently looked at the energy stones and large white eggs piled up on the ground like a small hill. As for the insect corpses, they had all been burned to ashes by Oakland.
The author has something to say: 【Happy Little Theater①】——Thank your whole family for me

Hall: Awooo awooo awooo (The insect legs are delicious, the larvae are also good, please give me some more)
Maju Tongzi: Life is hopeless and tears are flowing like a river (I am a horse but I am not a vegetarian... I have bad teeth and they can't be opened!!)
