From that day on, Lu Yuan and Rhein began their chaotic life of raising cubs.

Lu Yuan and Rhine were both busy with many things and naturally couldn't take care of the cub all the time. So the two insects went to great lengths to get the cub familiar with the servant insect's scent and allow the servant insect to approach and take care of it.

However, even with the help of the servant insects, the sudden appearance of two extra cubs still kept Lu Yuan and Rhine quite busy.

Because these two little guys are so fast runners, it takes a lot of effort to catch them every time.

Therefore, Lu Yuan specifically instructed the servant to keep a close eye on the two little ones and to make sure to close the bedroom door tightly so that the little ones would not run out.

Unlike human infants, Zerg larvae do not spend a long period of time lying in bed and relying on others for care.

The Zerg larvae are able to run and jump around once they have finished eating the eggshell, but they start talking a little later.

As for food, Zerg larvae are able to eat the same things as adult Zerg after they hatch from their eggs.

Of course, it would be even better if they could be fed soft and sticky food for a period of time, as it would be easier for the pups to digest.

The reason why Zerg larvae are so strong is said to be the result of the larvae constantly evolving in ancient times in order to improve their survival rate.

In ancient times, the Zerg did not occupy the top of the food chain; on the contrary, they were one of the targets of other intelligent races.

Under immense pressure to survive, adult Zerg are unable to provide adequate care for their young; the young must rely on themselves to survive.

Therefore, after hatching from the egg, the chicks must be able to run and jump so that they can escape quickly.

The cubs must be able to eat anything, because they often have no choice. If they become weak due to being unable to eat, there is only one outcome for them: death.

Even as the Zerg grew stronger and became the undisputed overlords of the universe, and their living environment improved, the Zerg offspring remained in the same state.

After all, the law of the jungle is an instinct ingrained in the genes of the Zerg, and even the young dare not allow themselves to become weak.

......

Lu Yuan certainly didn't feed the cubs adult insect food right away. He fed them nutritious rice cereal for more than a month before gradually introducing them to normal food.

However, eating was a minor matter. What alarmed Lu Yuan the most during the subsequent process of raising Revol and Sueno was that the two little ones would actually disappear from his sight.

Lu Yuan felt he would never forget what happened that day.

That was about ten days after the two chicks hatched from the egg.

That day, Lu Yuan went to see Revol and Sueno early in the morning, only to find an empty bedroom. The servants were not there, and the two little guys were nowhere to be seen.

In an instant, all sorts of conspiracy theories popped into Lu Yuan's mind. He couldn't even describe how terrified he was at the time; he felt like his soul was about to jump out of his body.

Lu Yuan immediately wanted to find Rhine and then go together to find the cubs.

At this moment, Rhine appeared calmly and told Lu Yuan not to worry. The cub was in the manor. He had placed a locator on the cub, and its whereabouts were under his control.

In addition, he let the servant insects leave so that the cubs could go out for a walk.

Upon learning that the cub was alright, Lu Yuan first breathed a huge sigh of relief, then his face fell into a deep frown.

Letting the cub go out for a walk on its own sounds like walking a dog.

Furthermore, Lu Yuan was also very dissatisfied with Rhine letting such a small cub go out on its own.

However, now was not the time to argue with Rhine. Lu Yuan urged Rhine to quickly tell him the location of the cub so he could go and bring it back.

Rhine looked at Lu Yuan as if she wanted to say something, but seeing Lu Yuan's anxious face, Rhine ultimately said nothing.

Rhine took Lu Yuan directly to find the cubs, and they found the two cubs playing happily in the forest, chasing a small animal that looked like a squirrel, making it jump around and squeak.

When Lu Yuan tried to carry them away, they were quite reluctant.

After taking the cubs back, Lu Yuan pulled Rhine back to the room, ready to have a good talk with her.

"Rhine, I know you think female insect larvae shouldn't be spoiled too much, but no matter what, they're still too young. They've only been out of the eggs for a few days. How can you let them go out on their own?"

"Even if we're right here in the manor, there's still a good chance we'll run into danger," Lu Yuan said, trying to suppress his temper.

After looking at Lu Yuan for a while, Rhine spoke to him in a very serious tone.

"Master, I don't know where you got this wrong idea from, that the young are weak and need insects to protect them at all times, but I can tell you very clearly that if you continue to treat Revol and Sueno this way, you will destroy them."

Lu Yuan was taken aback.

Ignoring Lu Yuan's dazed expression, Rhein continued speaking.

He told Lu Yuan that the female insect larvae were strong enough to ensure they wouldn't be easily harmed.

Female insects are natural warriors, and their fighting skills need to be cultivated from the larval stage.

The most important thing for adult Zerglings to do is to let their offspring explore the world on their own, while ensuring their safety. In the process of exploration, they will learn to think independently and how to deal with various dangers. This is a growth process that all female Zerglings must go through.

Female insect larvae cannot be under the constant protection of adult insectoids, as this will cause them to develop a dependency mentality, preventing them from acquiring the strength they deserve, and thus ruining their future.

After listening, Lu Yuan remained silent for a long time, and then he apologized to Rhine.

He felt that the problem was indeed on his side; he shouldn't have used pre-transmigration ideas to treat the Zerg larvae.

If this really ruins Revol and Sueno's future, Lu Yuan thinks he will never forgive himself.

After that, Lu Yuan began to adjust his way of treating the cubs. Of course, he still gave them all the love they deserved, but he learned to let go of them. As long as they were within the manor's boundaries, he let them do whatever they wanted.

Sometimes the cubs get hurt while playing outside. Although Lu Yuan still feels sorry for them, he has learned to deal with it calmly. He will not rush to apply medicine to the cubs, but will let Rhine teach them how to use various techniques to make their wounds heal faster.

Rhine wasn't entirely unchanged either. Under Lu Yuan's influence, his attitude towards the cubs became increasingly tolerant, a tolerance he himself didn't even realize.
