Zerg: Why is the Overlord like that?

"..."

Okay, as expected of the control group.

Anyway, he doesn't really like things like family.

So without thinking, Jian Chi sent it to Gene.

"No, and you too! Hurry up and join the army to earn me star coins!"

The scenario is complete. Current number of completed scenarios: (9/100)

A short while later, another message came from the other end.

"Brother, please, Father only wants to see you one last time before he dies. I promise, as long as you come back, I will go to the army immediately."

Jian Chi was somewhat surprised by Gene's reply.

He thought Gene would swear at him, or at least his tone wouldn't be very nice.

Surprisingly, Gene not only didn't scold him, but also begged him to come.

He thought for a moment and replied, "Since he's so sick he's about to die, why doesn't he go to the hospital?"

He remembered it as soon as he sent it over there.

It seems that before leaving, the original owner took all the star coins with her and even sold the house.

Therefore, when the original owner left, his female father and younger brother were penniless.

Jian Chi rubbed his forehead.

This is a complete mess.

When we saw the message from them saying, "We don't have any Star Coins," we could only keep putting it off...

Then the longer it's delayed, the worse it gets.

With the Zerg's current technological level and self-healing ability, there's nothing that a single soak in a medical bay can't solve; if there is, then two soaks will do.

However, a single soak in the lowest-level, least effective medical pod costs 100,000 star coins.

The highest-level medical pod costs one million per use.

Thinking of this, Jian Chi transferred five million to Gene.

"Take good care of him."

It was obvious that they hadn't expected Jian Chi to send Star Coins, and they didn't reply to messages for a long time.

It wasn't until three hours later that another message came.

"The female father has already entered the medical pod."

After I said that, the other end kept showing "typing in progress".

However, after waiting for a long time, Jian Chi still didn't receive any messages from the other side, so he simply stopped paying attention.

[...] The system has something to say.

Jian Chi raised an eyebrow: "What? You asked me to complete the scenario, and I've already finished it, haven't I?"

The system fell silent again.

Are you done?

finished.

But it wasn't completely finished.

As you would do.

Fortunately, the system was already used to Jianchi's way of dealing with things, so it was speechless for a moment and then recovered.

[Ahem, so the host will keep helping me complete a hundred scenarios to ensure the main storyline doesn't fall apart and develops perfectly to the end, right?]

It didn't receive a definite answer and remained somewhat uneasy.

"Well, I still have to ask, are you sure that after I complete one hundred scenarios, you can take me back to my original world to be resurrected?"

[Of course, as long as the host completes one hundred scenarios, I will definitely take you back!]

Jian Chi smiled and replied, "That's fine then."

Then continue exploring the StarNet.

The system was puzzled by Jian Chi's appearance.

As someone whose soul is bound to Jian Chi, one can vaguely sense that Jian Chi also has some feelings for Elvis.

But Jian Chi's attitude was so natural just now, as if he had never considered the possibility of staying here.

Could it be that Jian Chi couldn't bear to part with his parents, relatives, and friends from the previous world?

But surely we shouldn't feel absolutely no attachment to this world?

How strange, how hard to think of.

Sigh, human emotions are so hard to understand!

Shortly after, Jian Chi received a message from Elvis:

Lord, is this a tomato?

When he saw the photo, he was stunned.

Because those bright red fruits really do look just like tomatoes!

It resembles any of the ones Elvis had shown him before.

Could it really be a tomato?

As I was thinking this, several more messages and photos came in one after another.

Elvis: My lord, the army has found an unclaimed planet. It's very beautiful. Do you like it?

Elvis: I'll buy whatever the male lord likes. The male lord probably likes blue, right?

Elvis: There are other things on this planet. These fruits all look edible. Since the male is interested, I had the insect bring some over.

Of the photos sent, two were close-ups and distant views of the planet taken from space.

The remaining photos were taken from high above the planet, capturing its general appearance.

Another part consists of close-up shots, showing things that exist on the planet.

Jian Chi stared silently at the photos.

If we're talking about a water-blue planet, he could consider it a planet similar to the blue planet.

The next few photos completely confirmed to him that it was indeed Earth.

In the previous world, although he was a bit of a homebody and didn't travel much, he might not be able to recognize those landscape photos.

However, in photos taken from above, there are still ruins and broken walls.

He recognized those ruins absolutely; they were faded and worn, but he would never mistake them for the remains of tall buildings.

There are also other photos of familiar fruit plants.

So, the fruit in the first photo Elvis sent was a tomato.

Jian Chi didn't reply to Elvis; he just stared at the photos in silence for a long time.

Until Elvis sent another message and photos.

Elvis: My lord, I'm about to get to work.

Image: A table piled high with documents.

The Zerg are technologically advanced and would be better off using StarNet, but military information is very important, so they always keep two copies.

For the rest of the day, Jian Chi did not reply to Elvis.

Meanwhile, Elvis would send messages and photos from time to time.

Around noon, they sent me a picture of a vial of nutrient solution with the caption: "It doesn't taste like honey, it's awful."

This afternoon, I received footage of the female soldiers training...

Before Jian Chi could say anything, the system was already puzzled.

[Wait a minute, what happened to Elvis? I remember he was always cold and taciturn in the previous 100,000 episodes.]

Even when they do speak, their words are either concise or sharp and sarcastic, not to mention on the StarNet, where they are even more aloof.

The messages were sent so densely that they became incredibly annoying!

"Isn't this great? It lets me know what he's doing anytime, anywhere, and keep track of his activities."

Don't you find it annoying?

Why feel annoyed?

【Then why don't you reply to him?】

Since things were out in the open, the system isn't holding back like it used to, although it hadn't really been holding back before, asking whatever it wanted.

But now there are more people who are curious, and they ask more questions.

"Not replying doesn't mean I hate you. If I hated you, I would just tell him to stop sending messages."

"Not replying is simply because I don't want to. Not wanting to reply doesn't mean I dislike you, understand?"

After the conversation, Jian Chi's patience with the system increased somewhat.

In his view, it was just a newborn cub, curious about everything.

The system seemed to understand, but not quite.

So, the host also likes Elvis?
