Chapter 149 A Chill on My Back

Xia fooled these noble insects.

It's as easy as fooling the Merris family with bugs.

Because they were all considering their own interests. If the relationship with the Insect Emperor was mixed in, it would not have been so smooth.

All we can say is that the Insect Emperor didn't have a good eye when selecting his pillars of strength, and he didn't give his heart to them.

Therefore, these insects only regard him as a big tree that they can rely on, and gather around the Insect Emperor. Once the tree falls and no longer provides coolness, shelter from wind and rain, and solves the problem of warmth and fullness, they will immediately choose to give up.

Everything is based on profit.

So when they found that acknowledging Heras would bring them more benefits, while not acknowledging him would possibly cause them losses, they could not help but want to put aside their principles and accept Heras.

Was a civilian before.

Even after becoming a colonel, these bugs still looked down on Heras.

I didn't expect that I would have to humble myself and beg for it now.

It's really a retribution.

Just as these noble bugs were racking their brains to figure out how to strike up a conversation with Heras in an elegant and graceful manner, and then condescendingly ask him to let them go, Limp lay comfortably on Heras's legs.

The expression is satisfied and the posture is elegant.

Horus absentmindedly touched his head, ruffling his growing hair.

It has been a long time since the two of them had such a long period of free time together.

"Heras..."

"no."

Limp was not angry after being rejected. He propped himself up with his elbows and began to rub Heras' legs, calmly changing the subject.

"Where would the Insect Emperor go? He doesn't even have any money with him. He'd better come out quickly so that I can keep an eye on him. Don't hide around."

Although Limp is still not used to the world where people can be killed at will, in the world he used to live in, it would be difficult to lose one's life even if the crime was extremely heinous.

But the Insect Emperor has already killed so many insects, so it is not excessive to take his life.

Moreover, with his abilities, plus the fact that he is hiding in the dark and has not exposed his power, leaving it there will always be a hidden danger. If it is not resolved early, it may pop up again when they are resting easy.

"If you wanted to hide from me, where would you go?"

Horas asked this casually.

Limp answered casually, "I think I will live in the Snow Tribe for a while. That place is remote, far away, and cold. You won't even see ordinary insects there."

[Why would I avoid you? I will stick to you because I am afraid you will avoid me.]

Heras breathed a sigh of relief.

"Limp, do you think you would lie to me?"

Limp smiled instantly. Heras really cared about him all the time: "I will never lie to you."

[Except for things that cannot be said, everything else can be said. 】

"Then do you know what human beings mean?"

"People?" Limp's face was blank and confused, and the scream in his heart was deafening.

"Where did you hear that word?"

[I’m dying! I’m dying! ]

[Heras, can you let me write a suicide note before I die? I still have 46,219,643 star coins in my head. Can you let me take this huge sum of money with me? ]

Heras almost reached out to cover his ears: "I read in ancient books that it was a creature from a former planet, and its evolutionary traces are very similar to those of the Zerg."

"Although its intelligence level is slightly lower than that of other species, it is still able to use tools, which makes it quite insect-like."

Limp: ...

"Heh... cough cough... haha, insect nature, yes... yes."

[What the hell is insect nature? Suddenly I feel like a puppy being taught human nature. 】

Heras asked indirectly. Although he didn't expect him to say it directly, he still wanted to know something from his heart: "Haven't you heard about it?"

Limp looked at Heras' gentle smile and felt a chill on his back.

The words I just promised are still vibrating in the air.

[This pit is so deep that we can neither advance nor retreat. Does Heras know something? ]

Limp shook his head, but what he said was, "I've heard a little bit."

The body was denying it, but the mouth was honest to the point of being deadly.

What's the point of saying it out?

What is more important, life or an empty promise?

As soon as Limp said this, he wanted to hit himself, but it was too late, so he could only smile awkwardly at Heras.

Heras' heart tightened.

The vague guesses in my heart were all realized at this moment.

Limp doesn't really belong here.

He had hoped it was just a misunderstanding, maybe he had just seen it in a book or heard it by chance.

But obviously, his hopes were dashed.

One step missed, and he fell from the clouds into hell.

Limp was running around anxiously.

[What should I do? If Heras continues to ask questions, it will involve the question of whether I am a foreigner.]

Given Heras' upright and incorruptible character, he would certainly not tolerate the existence of foreigners on this land.

Limp suddenly had the urge to escape.

Then he remembered that Heras had just asked him where he was most likely to escape to.

Heras reached out and pinched Limp's chin, wanting to see the emotions hidden under his eyelashes, wanting him to tell the truth, wanting to force him to lay everything out in front of him.

But that little bit of fear and embarrassment suddenly poured over him like a basin of cold water.

Limp didn't want him to know these things.

It seemed that if he took a step closer, Limp would take a step back.

"My Lord..."

There seemed to be a stone stuck in Heras' throat. He wanted to ask something, but he couldn't say it. He felt that once he said it, the relationship between the two insects would never be the same as before.

"Master, let's do it."

The feeling of impending loss made Heras panic, and he subconsciously looked for the most reassuring means to win over Limp's heart.

Limp had never been able to resist him.

Even though he knew there was a big trap ahead, once Heras opened his mouth, he believed it and approached it without hesitation.

[I can't go back anyway, so I'll just live day by day with Heras. 】

Limp thought fiercely and bit Heras' shoulder.

Heras slowly relaxed himself, gradually immersed in Limp's rough invasion, and squeezed out the worry in his heart like a bubble.

As long as he watches closely enough, everything should be fine, right?
