Does the other party's sincerity need to be questioned?

"However, we still need to verify this 'sincerity' step by step."

but,

Zhu Lao couldn't possibly believe just based on the queen's words alone.

Neither compatriots nor human beings

Foreign race,

Staying vigilant is the right approach.

What if they say you have control over your life and death, but then they've secretly planned something else?

"I will go in person and discuss this matter with the Queen of Insects."

After careful consideration, Mr. Zhu decided to take a group of people to visit and investigate in person.

"Our fleet will guarantee your absolute safety!"

Pang Hai immediately made a loud promise.

this time,

Accompanying the negotiating team was their fleet!

If these alien insectoids dare to harbor disloyal thoughts,

The fleets of this universe will tell them.

What is absolute strength!

"Alright, in that case, let's get ready to go!"

Old Zhu nodded.

Turning his head to look at the boundless, desolate land in the distance, his voice carried a hint of expectation:

"Let's go and meet this Zerg queen!"

This queen is truly the queen of her tribe!

She is capable of leading the entire Zerg race.

Their wisdom is only high, not low!

……

Old Zhu led his negotiation team to the Zerg's forward base.

He was originally planning to showcase his skills and demonstrate the art of negotiation.

result,

Upon arriving at the palace with the obelisk, the queen insect began to vomit before she could even exchange a few words.

"What are you..."

Old Zhu frowned, somewhat unable to understand the queen's actions.

At this moment, the queen's soft palate trembled continuously.

Calling it vomiting wouldn't be quite right, but there was indeed a golden liquid flowing out of her mouth, or rather, her mouthparts.

What's rather peculiar is that,

The golden liquid gradually condensed into a sphere, which then slowly floated in front of the queen insect.

“This is my…life.”

The queen insect's vibrating voice was somewhat weak; she slowly raised her hand.

The ball of golden liquid immediately floated towards the crowd in this universe and hovered at a great distance.

"We, the Zerg, were born from duckweed, and we have been fighting endlessly with countless races and even other Zerg swarms on our home planet."

“In our land, the swarm that chooses to submit surrenders the queen’s life and her right to reproduce. This is my life, and if it is destroyed, I will die immediately.”

As she spoke, the queen insect finally began to move!

This is the first time since this universe made contact with her that it has seen her move.

As they moved, Elder Zhu and the others finally understood why the queen insect had maintained the same posture for so long.

Because beneath the throne lies a lair.

Inside the nest, there is a transparent egg!

Gently lifting the egg, which resembled a work of glass art, the queen seemed to feel a touch of tenderness in her compound eyes, and she quietly said:

"This is the next generation of queen. You are not the swarm, so you cannot control the queen's reproduction in a normal way. However, you can introduce pheromones, which will also allow you to control the queen's reproduction."

In the Zerg race, the Queen is always the offspring of the Zerg!

The worker insects and motherships are produced by separate dedicated mother broodstock, and the life and death of these mother broodstock are controlled by the queen.

Does it sound familiar?

That's right,

These mother hives are the other swarms that were conquered by the Zerg!

Through intermediaries and control, the Zerg became the absolute rulers of their home planet!

"Record!"

In the ranks of this universe,

The researchers immediately used sophisticated instruments to carefully preserve the two items.

Especially that golden liquid,

This is something that can control the queen's life, so we have to be careful.

The queen insect's action of immediately surrendering her "life" is...

It completely stumped Old Zhu.

What happened to the promised negotiations?

Since you've been so honest, what's the point of talking anymore?

I've already given my life; it's over!

A hint of embarrassment flashed across his face. Old Zhu coughed lightly, slowly stood up, and looked at the Queen Insect:

"Therefore, our cooperation is now officially in effect, and we welcome you and your community to join us."

"Now that we are your subordinate race, you can tell me directly what you need."

The queen's voice remained very flat.

Or rather, this is the only sound she can conjure.

"Uh, there's no immediate need. We need the Zerg to temporarily control their population size and give us some... samples."

Old Zhu spoke very tactfully.

Fang Jing, a member of the negotiating team, chuckled inwardly.

It's human "ethics" that limits Mr. Zhu's ability to speak tactfully!

But Elder Zhu, the one on the other side is the Queen of Insects, and they're not even from the same race. If you phrase it so tactfully, she might misunderstand!

"Sample? A mineral sample?"

The queen insect tilted her head, looking puzzled.

"It refers to the body tissues of insects such as worker insects and motherships; of course, living organisms are better."

Fang Jing immediately added.

"I see. You can choose whichever you like."

The queen insect suddenly realized,

So it turns out they just wanted the worker insects and the mothership to do the research!

Seeing this, Old Zhu raised an eyebrow and understood the situation.

It seems that

When communicating with the Zerg, never bring your preconceived human mindset into it.

In the Queen's view, and in the entire Zerg civilization, the only things truly worthy of attention are the Hive and the Queen!

As for the others
