(A noble mansion on the capital planet)
A young female servant knelt at the feet of the male master, carefully massaging his legs and feet.
The male lord, looking at the association's statement on the screen, scoffed, "See that? Even the association has spoken! That Lin Luo is just delusional! He thinks he can change the male insects? Dream on!"
He kicked the female servant beside him. "Did you secretly watch his live streams before and think his style was good?"
The female servant stiffened, then quickly shook her head, her voice filled with fear: "No, Master! I never did! How could I believe such fallacies! I only believe that your methods are correct!"
He lowered his head, concealing the fleeting disappointment in his eyes and the tiny glimmer of hope that had been ignited and then extinguished.
(A civilian department of the military)
Several married female insect employees gathered in the break room, and the atmosphere was somewhat awkward.
One of them sighed and turned off the personal terminal that was replaying "Lin Luo's Lecture Hall":
"I'm not watching anymore. My male lord threw a huge tantrum last night, saying that if I dared to believe Lin Luo's nonsense, I could forget about ever entering his bedroom again. The association has already said that... Maybe we really are wrong? The male lords are unwilling to change, and we can't force them."
Another chimed in, with a hint of helplessness: "Yes, life goes on. Lord Lin Luo means well, but... changing male insects is too difficult."
"What if we fail to 'cure' him and instead anger the powerful leader? That would be a net loss." They were originally potential supporters of Lin Luo's ideals, but now, under the pressure of reality and the "authority" that defined him, they chose to back down and become skeptical.
On the StarNet, there is also an extreme worship group that "surpasses male insects," who almost regard male insects as gods and believe that all the behaviors and ideas of male insects are correct and unquestionable.
They were overjoyed when the association issued its statement:
"The association is wise! They should have stopped Lin Luo's behavior of bewitching female insects and challenging the authority of male insects long ago!"
"What 'healing'? It's clearly inducing female insects to have inappropriate fantasies! The male insects are born noble, their way is the truth, and it is us untamed female insects who need to change!"
"Support the Association!! Anyone who attempts to undermine the status of the male insects is an enemy of the Empire!"
They turned their guns on Lin Luo and the female insects who supported the new method, using harsh, fanatical, and violent language, becoming one of the most jarring voices in the opposition.
The resulting impact spread like a virus. Many female insects that were originally supportive or curious began to waver, retreat, or even turn against the association under the explicit opposition of the male, the "authoritative" characterization of the association, and the sudden increase in social pressure.
"Even the association is saying this, so there might really be hidden dangers?"
"It's not worth falling out with the powerful ruler over this."
"Forget it, the old days were more peaceful."
......
The light of hope that had gathered because of Lin Luo seemed to have been doused with cold water.
-------
"Didi didi"
Lin Luo's eyelashes fluttered a few times before she slowly opened them.
My vision was initially blurry, then gradually became focused.
The first thing that catches the eye is Eland's face, which is very close to yours.
Those usually calm eyes were now bloodshot, staring at him intently. Ailand's hand gripped his tightly, so tightly that Lin Luo almost felt a slight pain, his palm cold and damp.
Lin Luo seemed to catch a glimpse of tears in Ailand's eyes, but when he looked again, it seemed like an illusion.
"Your Excellency!" Eland's voice was terribly hoarse. "You're awake! How are you feeling? Is anything bothering you?"
Lin Luo felt that there was nothing wrong with her body; on the contrary, she felt a strange sense of lightness.
He blinked and looked around, only to find that not only Eland, but also Minister Herbert, Dean Tynes, Dr. Parks, and several researchers from the Medical Department and the Academy of Sciences in white coats were all gathered around the bed, countless eyes fixed on him, their gazes filled with an indescribable excitement.
"What's wrong with me?" Lin Luo tried to sit up, but Ailand immediately supported him and placed a soft cushion behind his back.
Lin Luo then realized that he had many monitoring patches attached to his body. "Why is everyone here?"
"You were unconscious for a day and a night," Eland replied in a low voice, his gaze lingering on Lin Luo's face.
"A whole day and night?" Lin Luo was surprised himself.
Just then, Minister Herbert, who had been staring intently at the test results, suddenly turned around. His usually serious face flushed with excitement, and he even stepped forward, disregarding etiquette, his voice trembling slightly with suppressed excitement:
"It's true! The monitoring data has stabilized! My guess was right! Your Excellency, you're not sick, you've—become an upgraded version!"
"Upgrade?" Lin Luo repeated blankly.
"Quick! Secondary verification of vital signs! Deep scan of mental energy spectrum! Comparative analysis of cell activity, quick!" Herbert commanded, rushing to the main control screen and rapidly operating his fingers to retrieve a massive amount of data.
The instrument emitted a soft hum, and its light swept over Lin Luo. Several researchers, while operating it, couldn't help but gasp in surprise.
"The density of the mental energy sea... is incalculable! The probe wave was 'pushed away,' a spontaneous phenomenon of extremely high-purity mental energy!"
"Spectral analysis...gold! The original spectrum shows a stable pale gold color! This, this is..."
"S+! It's an S+ level characteristic spectrum! Although the intensity is still in a slow adaptation period of growth, its fundamental nature has already changed!"
A young researcher pointed to the stable, pure, pale golden glow on the spectrometer, a glow that symbolized legend and the pinnacle, and his voice trembled with excitement.
"S+..." Dean Tynes, who was usually composed and scholarly, could no longer maintain his composure. He leaned close to the screen, almost pressing his face against it, and murmured.
"Evolving autonomously to S+ level after birth... This has never happened in nearly a thousand years of imperial history! This is not just a medical miracle, but a milestone in the history of biological and spiritual evolution!"
Dr. Parks' eyes immediately welled up with tears. He grabbed the arm of an assistant beside him and shook him violently, then, realizing he had overreacted, released his grip, his voice choked with emotion: "Your Excellency! Your Excellency! That's wonderful, wonderful!"
Minister Herbert took a few deep breaths to calm his turbulent emotions, but the light in his eyes was more intense than ever before.
"The data doesn't lie! Lord Lin Luo, you have successfully evolved from A+ grade to S+ grade male insect!"
He paused, his gaze sweeping over Eland, and continued, "This perfectly confirms my previous conjecture! Ladies and gentlemen, what we are witnessing is not merely the upgrade of one esteemed gentleman!"
His voice rose, carrying the fervor of discovering the truth:
"This proves that the new method of spiritual comfort pioneered by Lord Lin Luo, based on 'healing' and 'resonance,' has a two-way value, and is even mutually causal!"
