Zerg: Why is the Overlord like that?

While listening to Jian Chi's story, Elvis couldn't help but recall that night.

That night, he finally mustered up the courage to go to the male ruler, but was rejected by him.

After that, although the lord's attitude towards him did not change much, he could vaguely sense that a rift had formed between him and the lord.

He thought this situation would continue until his mental energy went berserk and he died from insect-like transformation.

Unexpectedly, the male lord suddenly stopped being as indifferent as before, and the two insects even became closer.

The male ruler's words implied that whatever he said, the other party would agree.

So, is he going to say that?

After listening to Jian Chi's question, Elvis paused for a moment before slowly speaking.

I don't want it any way.

Jian Chi raised an eyebrow, showing no anger but rather curiosity.

"Why? Do you want to die?"

"Of course I don't want to die, but I don't want the male lord to have any more headaches. Using the same method as before to eliminate the half-insect female soldiers might give the male lord a headache."

"But didn't you previously think it was because of that insect-transformed female soldier?"

Elvis never expected that the Lord would overhear what he said to Arnorf inside the mech.

He pursed his lips.

"I don't know the specific reason, but either of these is possible."

Jian Chi remained noncommittal: "So you'd rather die from a mental breakdown?"

At this moment, Jian Chi didn't know what he was feeling.

He never imagined that one day, such a bug would do this much for him.

Just as the system said, Elvis was indeed willing to sacrifice his life for him without hesitation.

This was indeed what he wanted, but it also left him without that slight thrill.

At this moment, after a brief silence, Elvis moved closer to Jian Chi and reached out with his head.

This was an unconscious action he took after losing his eyes; it was also an instinct.

A golden-winged butterfly that has lost its eyes can only sense things using its antennae.

As he transformed into a half-insect, tentacles sprouted from his forehead.

Two extremely thin tentacles trembled as they emerged from the forehead, slowly touching Jianchi's cheek with their tentacles.

"I will not die," he whispered. "My lord, I am not dead yet, am I?"

Jian Chi asked, puzzled, "You're not dead yet because I comfort you from time to time, don't you know that?"

That's second only to deep reassurance.

Even so, it cannot compare to deep reassurance.

Elvis hummed in response, and his whiskers, whether intentionally or unintentionally, explored Jian Chi's mouth before retracting as if startled.

"I know, so my lord, when you tire of me, just let me fend for myself."

At first, Jian Chi didn't understand what it meant.

When the tendrils on Elvis's forehead touched his mouth again, he realized what was happening and couldn't help but gasp.

My heart, which had been calming down, started pounding wildly again.

Elvis could sense that his attraction to him was only temporary, and he didn't want to force him, but he couldn't resist this sudden tenderness.

So they would rather risk their lives walking a tightrope.

Therefore, the hidden meaning behind Elvis's statement is:

Only your touch can sustain my sanity and life. My life is in your hands, so, my lord, when you tire of me, let me fend for myself.

"..."

This is really bad.

For Elvis, this is the best option he has chosen after weighing everything, and it is what he wants to do most right now.

It's like the recent act of gouging out someone's eyes.

He always speaks in the calmest voice, yet utters the most outrageous words.

For Jian Chi, this crazy move stirred his heart once again.

Heart is worse than action.

"As you wish..."

So he lowered his head and, under the watchful eyes of the entire Zerg, began to comfort Avis in second place.

For the rest of the day, he would comfort Elvis from time to time.

Meanwhile, the viewers in the official live stream went from initial shock and envy to disbelief and finally to numbness.

We came here to see how you would remove Admiral Elvis's half-insect form, and to see Lord Jian Chi display his divine skills once again.

It's not so that I can see you constantly and relentlessly trying to appease and comfort you!

Finally, after a whole day, Elvis's injuries had healed thanks to the medical bay and his own powerful regenerative abilities.

Even the golden wings that were broken inside the mecha have been repaired.

The insects were stunned by what they saw.

No, it's been a whole day, why haven't they removed Admiral Elvis's half-insect form yet!

The entire Zerg race watched as Jian Chi helped Elvis out of the medical bay.

Although the golden insect patterns on Admiral Elvis's face and body had disappeared, the antennae on his forehead and the golden wings on his back remained.

Even Arnold couldn't sit still any longer.

"Lord Jian Chi, when will you remove Admiral Elvis's half-insect transformation?"

"Don't you know that a female soldier who has already undergone partial insectification cannot revert to her original form?"

Arnorf was stunned.

"But didn't you restore Lord Hunter before?"

Jian Chi gave a wry smile.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know what I did at the time. By the time I came to my senses, Hunter had already recovered."

My head has been hurting ever since, and it still does. I tried to help Elvis in the same position, but it didn't work...

He looked apologetic, seemingly distressed that he couldn't help Elvis recover.

When Elvis heard Jian Chi's apologetic voice, even though he knew that the male master was faking it, he still frowned and pulled Jian Chi behind him.

"Arnold, this is none of your business."

Seeing his expression, the other female soldiers wisely kept quiet.

Arnorf was quite shocked.

"Admiral Elvis, can you please stay rational?!"

It's important to understand that a female soldier whose mental energy has surged to the point of being half-insect-like is completely incapable of maintaining her rationality.

But now, apart from the antennae on his head, the golden wings on his back, and his blindness, Admiral Elvis looks perfectly normal.

It's so normal it's almost abnormal!

But it still excited him.

Elvis nodded and ordered Arnold:

"Turn off the live stream, I have something important to report to the Marshal."

Without hesitation, Arnold turned off the live stream.

Afterwards, Elvis had Arnold and the other subordinates leave, leaving only himself and Jane.

He took out his smart bracelet and reached out to Jian Chi. Jian Chi naturally found the marshal's personal terminal and dialed the number.

As he mentioned in the live stream, the other end answered the phone as soon as he dialed.

Upon seeing that it was Jian Chi, the marshal was somewhat surprised. Considering Jian Chi's special status, he asked, "Is it Lord Jian Chi who wants to speak with me?"

Jian Chi nodded, a hint of seriousness appearing on his gentle face.

"Marshal, what I want to talk about is the matter of that deceased insectoid female soldier. It is very likely that he was intentionally arranged by the insects to get close to me."

On the other end of the video call, the marshal also realized something and said in a deep voice:

"continue."
