Chapter 221: Cutting off the firewood from under the cauldron, leaving no escape route
There was total silence all around, and the Insect Emperor could only hear the sound of a few medical insects repeatedly cleaning their equipment.
After a long time, he stood up, supported the head of the bed with one hand, and spoke as if he had used up all his strength.
"You all should go out, it seems unnecessary."
The doctors breathed a sigh of relief and rushed out.
As doctors who have worked here for a long time, they are no strangers to the Insect Emperor.
After all, every now and then, the Insect Emperor would call them to that eerie and scary house to examine the male insect.
But no matter what the male insect's examination results were, they would only receive one order: save his life.
There are no requirements for health, body quality or whether the patient is injured. The only requirement is to keep him alive.
The doctor had received such orders too many times, so he naturally did not dare to take it lightly. Every time he tried his best to treat the patient to ensure the physical condition of the male insect.
Therefore, even under the torture of the Insect Emperor, the male insect can still live well, but it is difficult to move.
But this time, no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't bring the dead back to life.
The medical cabin can only treat broken wounds at best, and even advanced medicines can only work on living things and cannot bring dead insects back to life.
So they were very nervous until they left the room.
Just then he remembered that the Insect Emperor was no longer the original Insect Emperor. He had neither the right to kill insects nor the right to order them to do anything.
They just work for Heras now.
"What a shock!" A bug patted its chest, showing a relieved expression.
The insects nearby echoed him.
“I’m so scared!”
"I thought we were in the palace just now. When I saw your Majesty's lord die, my heart almost jumped out of my chest."
"I thought today was the day we would die."
"Thank goodness! It's a good thing he died. We won't have to face the threat of death anymore."
"You scare yourself!"
"By the way, what was that male's name?"
"…I haven't appeared in public for a long time, and I've almost forgotten about it."
"I don't remember. I don't remember."
…
Inside the house, the Insect Emperor moved towards the window step by step.
Stunned.
I don't know what my brain is thinking.
I have long felt that this male insect deserved the punishment he received, but after being imprisoned for so many years and torturing each other for so many years, the anger in my heart has long since disappeared, and what remains is only endless hatred and desire for revenge.
And a bit of vanity to control the male - for this, he did not control him in the same way as he controlled the females, but tried to force him into submission through force and torture.
After a long time, the Insect Emperor turned around and felt that the temperature of the whole room had dropped.
He looked at the corpse, angrily: "You did this on purpose, didn't you? You comforted me before you died, and you still want me to feel guilty?"
It is impossible to feel guilty.
It was the male insect who chose him, it was he who chose the path, and it was he who gave up the right to be treated equally.
I just feel uneasy inside, as if the world is empty and distracting.
The Insect Emperor urgently wanted to do something to prove that he was not alone and could not survive without him.
Their palace is sealed so strictly that not only insects but even fully shielded robot insects cannot fly in.
The Insect Emperor wanted to transfer his consciousness into Kane's body. As he expected, the pair of bodies were also locked in a room. They had food and water but could not get out.
But he had so many options, just pick one and...
There are...that many?
The Insect Emperor returned to his body, his expression becoming solemn. Where were the insects he had prepared before? Did they all die overnight?
Did Heras find out? And was he cruel enough to kill them?
——
In a run-down and outdated hospital, he held the sword against his face, forcing a smile.
"Master, we don't smuggle star beasts."
The old man thought for a moment and said, "Do you want one of my females? I have several. You can pick any one you like."
"Mr. Xiongzi, you have such a good bug. What's wrong with eating some star beasts? They are very popular."
Yong Jian looked at the long line behind him and his eyes darkened. "Not that serious, not that serious. It's just a small operation. Go and have a rest quickly. Don't touch water for the next few days."
"No way? We all heard it. If we were controlled, we would definitely die. And even if we don't die, that damn thing will continue to absorb nutrients from our bodies to nourish itself..."
The people in the queue later on were obviously knowledgeable and spoke very coherently, as if they had watched a live speech by the Insect Emperor.
The female was grateful.
But holding a sword...
Behind him were all kinds of scarce vegetables, rare plants, star beasts that were almost being eaten to extinction, and sea beasts that were gaining favor from the insect tribe. In addition, there was an endless supply of insects delivering things here.
Maybe not expensive.
But each one is carefully thought out.
