Zerg: Why is the Overlord like that?

That low, helpless voice, seemingly tinged with a hint of indulgence, made Elvis's heart skip a beat.

He quickly closed his eyes slightly, the cold rim of the cup pressed against him, and he realized what Jian Chi was doing.

Just as she was about to panic and say that it wasn't necessary, the honey water had already been poured into her mouth. Unable to speak, she had no choice but to drink the honey water that had been forced into her mouth.

It's possible that because it was the first time the male was serving water to the insect, he poured it down too quickly, and Avis choked because he couldn't drink it all in time.

"Cough cough cough..."

"Are you alright?"

"N-nothing...cough cough cough..."

"Your clothes are all wet, but it's okay. I'll take you to change your clothes."

Then, looking at Hani, he said, "Hani, I'll take Elvis to change his clothes. You sit down first."

"Okay, you guys go ahead."

Jian Chi led Elvis upstairs, gently reminding him to be careful of the steps as they went up the stairs.

He led Elvis into his room, the one in the far corner.

This room was extremely simple compared to his own room.

It doesn't even qualify as minimalist.

There weren't even sheets on the bed, so it didn't look like there were any bugs living there.

The only thing I still have is probably the two or three sets of clothes in the closet.

He took a set out of the closet, looked at Elvis, and asked him with a smile:

"Can you change it yourself?"

Elvis nodded.

"Then you change first."

As he spoke, Jian Chi tossed the clothes to Elvis.

In fact, Ives should have changed his clothes a long time ago.

Elvis hadn't changed the clothes he was wearing since he went to Batani Square.

After running around in the medical pod all day, my clothes were much cleaner, but they were still tattered.

However, Elvis was already used to it, so he didn't bring it up.

As for Jian Chi, he deliberately avoided mentioning him.

Even if it's mentioned, Avis can't be replaced.

After throwing the clothes to Elvis, Jian Chi didn't leave.

Elvis paused for a moment, then said nothing, lowering his eyes and slowly beginning to change.

However, putting on the clothes gave him a problem.

Because he has a pair of huge golden wings on his back.

He was momentarily at a loss, clutching his clothes as he stood there.

Jian Chi didn't say anything, just quietly looked at him, as if waiting for something.

After a long stalemate, Elvis still didn't say anything.

He had long been accustomed to not making any demands of any insect.

Just like before, even though he wanted to drink honey water, his subconscious thought was to resist and not bother Jian Chi.

As for Jian Chi, he mostly pleaded with him.

For him, making a request was a luxury.

After a while, Jian Chi let out a "hiss".

"Alright, I'll buy you some clothes on the StarNet. You can stay in your room for now."

"Thank you, my lord..."

After saying that, Elvis touched his eyes.

His eyes will grow back in one more day.

Once he grows eyes, he won't have to trouble the powerful ruler with everything like this.

Once he regains his sight, perhaps the powerful ruler won't treat him as gently as he does now...

After that, Jian Chi bought more than a dozen outfits for Elvis on the StarNet.

"It will be delivered in an hour. Please wait here for a while."

"it is good."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ives heard the sound of footsteps fading into the distance.

The insect patterns on his face and body were faintly visible. He opened his mouth, then closed it again, saying nothing.

Until the door slammed shut, the whole world fell silent and dark.

But he showed no unease whatsoever, standing there quietly without even changing his posture.

For him, it was just like returning to the dark room where his female father had locked him up.

Once he has endured enough pain and darkness, the door will open, giving him the warmth he desires.

Now all he has to do is wait.

the other side.

After Jian Chi left, the system asked curiously:

[Host, didn't you see the worm-like markings on Elvis's face? Why aren't you comforting him?]

[Don't you understand? I didn't hear the code.]

But you saw it, didn't you?

Jian Chi remained noncommittal: "So what?"

He had already devised a code with Elvis, but Elvis didn't say it, so he naturally assumed that Elvis could still hold back.

The system was completely baffled.

So you're just going to pretend you didn't see it? What a terrible man!

The system couldn't help but complain.

Previously, judging from Jian Chi's behavior towards Elvis, it thought that he liked and cared about him to some extent.

I never expected Jian Chi to be so ruthless.

How come it never noticed before!

Jian Chi smiled: "You, who are waiting for me and Elvis to die, have the right to say such things?"

【…】

Having successfully silenced the system, Jian Chi went downstairs and calmly sat down.

Hani was still drinking honey water, and when he saw that only he had come down, he became a little curious.

"Why isn't Admiral Elvis coming down?"

"I didn't have any clothes that fit him, so I just bought some on StarNet."

"Yes, Admiral Elvis is now half-insect, so his old clothes are unwearable and he definitely needs to buy new ones!"

After Hani finished speaking, he coughed very deliberately, a vague hint:

"Um, Brother Chi, it's about General Elvis, the one I told you on the terminal before, what do you think...?"

"I'm so glad you're willing to go to such lengths to help me, Honey. But not right now. I have my own plans. If I need help later, I'll definitely ask you for it, okay?"

Hani breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this and nodded quickly, without any doubt.

"Okay, okay, then you must tell me when you need me. I'll stay with you for the next few days, so that I won't be there when you need me."

Jian Chi didn't refuse; refusing would have seemed suspicious.

After all, there are still many eyes watching him, wanting to see if he can restore Elvis as before.

After talking it out, Hani relaxed completely, turned on his smart bracelet, and started playing games.

An hour later, Jian Chi received the package and took it upstairs.

As soon as the door opened, a figure pounced on it.

The golden insect patterns on Elvis's face were crystal clear, and the antennae on his forehead instantly stuck to Jian Chi's face.

Just before Jian Chi came in, he still retained a sliver of rationality, telling himself to be patient.

But as soon as the door opened and he smelled the familiar scent, he couldn't control himself.

"A mighty ruler..."

His mental energy surged, and in the midst of his chaotic thoughts, his instincts overcame his reason.

Jian Chi wasn't angry; he just quietly looked at Elvis.

Waiting for the other party to give the code.

He had already reminded him once; this time, he wouldn't remind him again.

Just when he thought that Elvis would endure until he couldn't bear it any longer, no rational person told him to save him, just like Hunter and the dead female soldier.

Elvis, however, forcefully suppressed his instincts, stood up, and released Jian Chi.

He knelt down to the side, placing his hands neatly.

The golden wings on its back are spread out.

The original platinum pattern gradually turned golden, glowing and incredibly beautiful, shimmering behind it.

Then, he spoke cautiously and with utmost restraint:

Meow~

It's like writing an application report.
