My evil self is completely unable to exert its power in the Zerg.

A corner of the small square at the "Quiet Retreat" on the retirement planet has now become the most eye-catching open-air kitchen and restaurant on the entire planet.

Several elderly female soldiers, their hair gray and their bodies marked by the passage of time and their achievements, carefully surrounded Su Tang as if guarding the empire's most precious star core energy.

These veteran officers, whose average age was over eight hundred, were as excited as green recruits because of a few words from the male insect.

Their calloused hands, once used to operate mechs and grip weapons, are now carefully busy, all to serve the little darling who sits in the most comfortable chair temporarily moved in, legs crossed, smugly wagging the tip of his tail.

The air was filled with the aroma of food that attracted insects, mixed with the rock-solid and powerful aura of the old female soldiers, and the sweet milk male insect essence belonging to Su Tang, creating a strange and harmonious atmosphere.

"Sir, please try this! Old Jack's specialty, grilled sand lizard ribs, made with our local spices!"

"Desert goose stewed with green-spotted snake, I just caught it, it's fresh!"

"And this too! Sea buckthorn juice, freshly squeezed, it's a great appetizer!"

"Sir, your egg pancake is ready!"

[It's here! The legend of the ten eggs!]

Finally, the main event was served—a giant omelet.

Crispy on the edges and tender on the inside, it is layered with sand onions, unknown delicious mushrooms and minced meat. Most importantly, it is so thick that it is almost overflowing with golden egg liquid.

Sure enough, it wasn't just the "five eggs" that Su Tang had been clamoring for; judging by the thickness and the ingredients, there were probably more than ten!

Su Tang's eyes lit up instantly!

Su Tang swallowed hard.

Su Tang couldn't control herself and accidentally stabbed the sliced ​​egg pancake with her fork.

The outer layer of the egg pancake is slightly charred and crispy, while the inside is exceptionally soft and fluffy. It is mixed with the savory aroma of minced meat and the unique spiciness of shallots, mushrooms, and other ingredients. The egg flavor is rich and the texture is incredibly complex!

One bite and the perfect seasoning exploded in his mouth, so delicious that he almost swallowed his tongue!

He immediately buried himself in his food, his cheeks bulging as he ate, like a greedy, exquisitely delicate little hamster. The live stream camera faithfully recorded this scene.

[As expected of the veterans, even their cooking is amazing... I'm doomed, I can't compete with Old Bug anymore.]

Tears of envy streamed down her face.

[The kittens are still growing, and I don't know which one to crave. I'm so hungry for the food, but I'm also really craving the male!]

That really makes my mouth water.

[Hungry, guys. Gnawing on a nutrient solution bottle.]

Oh no, this seems to actually be really delicious!

There were even golden comments: "[It looks so delicious! It smells so good! Watching Baozi eat makes me really want to eat these too! Where can I buy them?]"

Immediately following this was a barrage of crazy comments yelling for the male insect to give them his address, promising to deliver it to his door.

……

Su Tang's attention was diverted to the golden bullet comments: Delicious? How can this be?

He tried his best to maintain his bully demeanor, and gave a reserved hum, "That's fine... chew chew chew."

The male insect, with its extremely poor self-control, cut off a large piece of cake and stuffed it into its mouth. Remembering its "insect persona," it quickly frowned and reluctantly criticized, "The taste is just so-so... chewing... overcooked, not enough salt! Chewing... the meat isn't tender enough either! Chewing..."

It doesn't taste good! Chew, chew, chew...

[Saying no with your mouth, but your body says no!]

[Baby is so cute, let Daddy give you a kiss, let's see if your lips are really that hard.]

[The male Bodhisattva really has the most... mouth...]

[You don't understand what happened before, do you? Our baby isn't just stubborn!]

Su Tang felt embarrassed and angry when he saw the comments, but this meal was indeed the most enjoyable meal he had had since he transmigrated to the Zerg, especially the omelet. The ingredients and seasoning were almost as good as the chef at his home on Earth!

Things change every thirty years, so don't underestimate the villains!

It's okay, let them gloat for a while. Anyway, these comments won't be happy for long under his evil pressure. It's just a temporary celebration. Laugh, but he'll be terrifying in a moment and they won't be able to laugh anymore!

Su Tang turned around, pretending not to see the comments, and picked up her bowl to chew.

The male insect, with its small appetite, could only eat a few bites. In addition, it had already tasted other delicacies. Su Tang managed to eat about one-fifth of the cake, but she was too full to eat any more.

Looking at the half-eaten omelet still on the plate, Su Tang's eyes lit up, and another "wicked" idea popped into her head.

He beckoned to Rohart, who had been standing beside him like a guardian angel, "Good dog! Come here!"

Rohart immediately stepped forward and whispered in his ear.

"Take 'that' out!"

"My Lord?" Rohart looked troubled. "No, my Lord, it will give you a stomachache if you eat that."

"Who said I ate it! Show it to me!"

Su Tang pushed the remaining half plate of egg pancakes in front of him, and then picked up the bottle that Rohart handed him.

This was specially prepared by him at Rohart's request. It was said to be the most insanely spicy Reaper hot sauce that could be found on the StarNet, so spicy that it could even make the Red-bellied Dragonfly clan breathe fire after eating it.

Although Rohart stated that their Dragonfly Clan's insect form couldn't breathe fire, and that it was just an exaggerated act by the clan's female merchants to sell their products, his current ability to control fire was because he was a special species of the Red-bellied Dragonfly and had evolved to 2S-level...

Su Tang didn't care about any of that. He had a sudden idea that "bullies must eat strong-flavored food," but after taking a small bite, he was so embarrassed that he cried from the spiciness. So he just left it with Rohart.

"Don't throw it away, you can use it to torture disobedient insects." These were Su Tang's exact words.

See, it's coming in handy now, isn't it?

With a "poof," Su Tang unceremoniously squeezed a large circle of sauce onto the remaining egg pancake, covering almost the entire surface.

The red color was so intense it looked like it was about to burst into flames, and the pungent, spicy aroma instantly filled the air!

"Here! This is the leftovers I'm giving you! You have to finish them all!" Su Tang raised her chin, a wicked grin on her face that said, "Be grateful and then cry from the spiciness."

Even a venomous and terrifying insect like him was brought to tears by the spiciness last time. Wouldn't these old men be made to look ridiculous by the spiciness?

Making these veteran soldiers shed tears and feel the audience's empathy will definitely earn a lot of evil points!

Then, he squeezed the remaining hot sauce onto the other dishes.

"Eat it all! No waste allowed! Anyone who leaves a little bit can prepare to get beaten up!" Su Tang ordered arrogantly, hands on her hips.

This taste...it's truly a spicy form of torture!

[This hot sauce makes my eyes hurt just looking at the screen!]

[It's just that the taste is hard to endure. Does the baby have some misunderstanding about us female insects? We even ate the decks of warships when we were pioneering (laughs)]

[These old men are all getting on in years, can they handle it?!]

[Sugar Baby truly lives up to her reputation as the epitome of evil! This time she's really gone wicked! (Applause)]

The viewers in the live stream held their breath, waiting to see the veterans being tortured by the insane hot sauce until they cried.

The old female soldiers were stunned for a moment, then exchanged glances.

The next moment, their eyes almost simultaneously and at a visible speed turned red!

They looked at the food that had been splattered with the terrifying hot sauce, but at that moment it seemed to be bathed in a holy light in their eyes!

An elderly female soldier with a broken arm trembled as she reached out and picked up a pancake covered in a terrifying hot sauce. Her voice choked with emotion, almost bursting with tears, she said, "Your Excellency...you actually...you actually cared about us old folks' bland palates, afraid we'd get tired of the food, and specially...specially rewarded us with such...such a potent seasoning..."

Another elderly officer, his face bearing deep scars, trembled with emotion, nodding vigorously. "Yes! Your Excellency is truly a god! Not only did you provide us with food, but you were also so considerate! This kindness, we...we..." He was so moved he was incoherent, but another veteran beside him immediately chimed in, "We are deeply grateful! We will never forget it!"

"Eat it! You must finish it all! Not a single bite can be left! This is Your Excellency's grace!"

The veteran female soldiers almost shouted in unison, as if this was not an order, but a supreme honor and care.

They paid no attention to the hot sauce that looked so appetizing it could make young female soldiers cry for their parents; instead, they stretched out their trembling hands and rushed to grab the food.

In fact, due to years of fighting injuries, wear and tear on their mental well-being, and aging, many veteran female soldiers have severely deteriorated their sense of taste, and ordinary food tastes like wax to them.

The planet of the Elderly is poor in resources and supplies are not timely. Even food is mostly self-sufficient for them, either by hunting based on their insect-like experience or by growing a small amount of fruits and spices that can grow in the desert in the oasis land to enjoy.

Such a strongly flavored sauce requires a variety of chili peppers as ingredients, which is simply impossible for someone with limited resources to make. As for purchasing it, that would be even more difficult.

It's not that they can't buy it through the StarNet, but rather that logistics simply aren't connected to the retirement planet. The interstellar travel corridor wouldn't be opened for a bunch of destined-to-be-abandoned waste. The Empire only delivers supplies once a year via insect-free ships, mostly necessities; things like sauces are simply not on the logistics department's procurement list.

Su Tang's "malicious" addition of the stir-fried chili sauce was like a timely rain after a long drought for them!

The perfectly balanced spiciness intensely assaulted their numb taste buds, bringing a long-lost, almost painful, stimulating sensation!

"Mmm! Delicious! So good!" An elderly female soldier stuffed a mouthful into her mouth, gasping for breath from the spiciness, beads of sweat instantly forming on her forehead, yet her face was filled with happiness and satisfaction. She exclaimed loudly, her words muffled, "Your Excellency's reward... is truly exceptional! So flavorful!"

"Delicious! So delicious! So satisfying!" Another person, tears streaming down their face, nodded repeatedly, hissing and sucking in air. "Thank you, sir! This is exactly the taste! I feel like I've regained all my energy!"

They ate incredibly fast, as if they were having a glorious eating contest. They were both hissing and sweating profusely from the spiciness, and at the same time, they were moved to tears, their eyes filled with unparalleled awe and kindness as they looked at Su Tang.

Su Tang: "..."

Pupil earthquake!

A system notification sounded at the opportune moment, with an eerily cheerful tone:

[Strong emotions detected, judgment successful, gaining Evil Points +30 +20 +20...]

This... this actually works?! Were these old guys' brains bombarded by particle cannons back in the day?! They're actually so obedient!

Is his evil aura really that terrifying? He ate it without even putting up a fight!

He watched helplessly as the old female soldiers devoured all the "added ingredients" of food like a whirlwind, even scraping the chili sauce off the edge of the plates. Finally, they all trembled as they gave him a standard military salute, their eyes red and brimming with "tears."

Su Tang dug her toes into the ground. Ugh, these little bastards… why are they already pledging their loyalty…?

He was so embarrassed that he felt he couldn't bully these old men anymore.

No, what is he feeling guilty about? These few old men are under his control now, so he can't make a move against them. But, but aren't there other old men on this huge planet?

Su Tang was a little awkward. He forced a calm hum and turned his head away, but the tip of his tail curled up slightly uncomfortably.

No! There must be too few insects here! The deterrent effect isn't enough! His title as the Great Demon King Su Tang absolutely cannot suffer a Waterloo at the hands of these old guys!

In order to establish his authority, Su Tang decided to find a new group of lone victims.

He strolled around the town with his hands behind his back, adopting an arrogant air of surveying his territory, his large amber eyes scanning his surroundings.

Soon, his gaze locked onto another perfect target.

She was a lonely old female soldier, sitting alone on a bench in the shade, holding a small, delicate pastry in her hand, her brows furrowed, staring blankly at the desolate sand dunes in the distance.

Su Tang's eyes lit up, and she immediately strode over with a proud and confident air.

There's something I'm hesitant to say...

Say less of what shouldn't be said!

[I think I've figured out the pattern to how Tangbao picks out bugs...]

[Hahahaha Tangbao: Skinny old man/disabled old man, he doesn't look like someone you can fight!]

[Although...that's Dreiser, isn't it? The former marshal!]

[Ironclad Golden Scorpion? No way, no way? He's been my idol since I was a kid!]

[Holy crap! It really is! He hasn't even experienced a mental upheaval yet? No wonder he was the strongest 3S of the previous generation... Baby really picks the best one out of the bunch!]

[No, baby, run! That's a madman! He's really scary when he goes crazy! Red-haired guy, what are you doing? Stop baby!]

Su Tang didn't pay any attention to what the comments were saying. He walked up to the tall, thin old man, reached out without ceremony, and grabbed the small dessert. The old man seemed to be in a daze and didn't react in time, so Su Tang actually snatched the dessert from his hand.

"Hey! Old man!" Su Tang raised his chin, his tail hook standing straight up in an attacking stance, his tone fierce: "This thing belongs to me!"

The old female was initially jolted awake by the sudden surge of male hormones, thinking she was hallucinating. When she abruptly raised her head, her face still held a hint of unease.

When he realized that the insect was indeed male, especially its dazzling golden heart-shaped tail, he was stunned for a full three seconds.

"Oh my! Your Excellency! You...you like this?" The old female soldier's voice was filled with genuine surprise, even a hint of eagerness. "That's wonderful! You must try it! By the way, we old folks have many other places for afternoon tea! Even more variety! I...I'll take you there right away!"

Su Tang: "???"

Live stream chat: 【???】

【What's wrong with you, sir?!】

[I looked through some old photos on the StarNet, and yes, they look exactly the same, even the missing part of their ears is identical... This is the Ironclad Golden Scorpion that punched a whale-level star beast into a pulp when it went berserk...]

No way! My positive image of Marshal Dreiser is about to shatter!

[This guy didn't go berserk even after his stuff was stolen? Or did Sugar Baby's male antagonist work?]

[Our Bodhisattva has come to save all sentient beings! Waaah, thanks to the Insect God, I seem to be getting much better; my eyes aren't as red anymore. The old marshal is saved!]

The viewers in the live chat guessed wrong this time. The male insect hormone did have some effect, but it was mainly because Su Tang's arrival was too coincidental.

Marshal Dreiser was worried about how to deal with this cloyingly sweet stuff that could kill insects!

The scorpion clan all know that sweets affect the secretion of venom from their stingers, and the old marshal himself dislikes sweets.

But this was a heartfelt gift from Mike, the old subordinate in charge of afternoon tea. He was afraid that throwing it away would hurt Mike's feelings. He had thought of taking it out and secretly throwing it away, but then he felt that it was a bit immoral!

Well done! Your esteemed male insect personally "snatched" the dessert! Could there be a more perfect and glorious way to handle this? You are a lifesaver! You are so understanding of insect needs!

The old marshal immediately became extremely enthusiastic, almost half-inviting and half-dragging Su Tang, who was still a little bewildered and clutching the "spoils of war" she had snatched, to a nearby shaded corridor.

As expected, this place was filled with more elderly female soldiers who were resting, chatting, and enjoying afternoon tea. The long stone table in the middle was set with a number of simple snacks and drinks.

The old marshal excitedly announced, "Gentlemen! Look! This esteemed male insect has taken a fancy to our snacks! Bring them all up, bring them up!"

In an instant, all the veteran female soldiers' gazes, like the most precise searchlights, focused on Su Tang.

The next second, the situation completely spiraled out of control.

"Sir! Try this! This is Old Mike's specialty, honey mille-feuille! The honey is homegrown!" Yes, that's right, Old Mike's prototype is the desert spider bee.

"Sir! This creamy fruit tart is delicious! Sweet but not cloying! It's all made from sea buckthorn berries we grow ourselves!"

"Sir! Please have some of our local specialty, mint tea! It's refreshing and helps to cleanse your palate!"

The veteran female soldiers were beaming, vying to "offer tribute," as if being "snatched" by Su Tang was an incredibly glorious thing, and their eyes were filled with pure affection when they looked at Su Tang.

Su Tang's hands were instantly stuffed with all sorts of snacks in quantities far exceeding his capacity, and even his tail had to wrap around to help support them so they wouldn't fall to the ground.

[Hiss... How terrifying... I think I'm seeing the old colonel.]

[Oh my god, am I seeing things? That guy smiling like a chrysanthemum, is that my old, terrifying drill instructor?]

[Male insect... no, Sugar Baby's charm is truly universal; no female insect could resist it!]

Surrounded by these overly enthusiastic elders, Su Tang was completely overwhelmed by the constant calls of concern, such as "Your Excellency, try this," and "Which one do you prefer?" and the various sweet scents wafting from her arms. Her "terrifying declaration" that she had been preparing all the way was shattered by this wave of sweetness.

Well, it seems these old underlings have also been won over by his insect-like charm, so he won't fight them anymore.

He was holding a large pile of "spoils of war" in his arms when a smiling old female soldier stuffed a piece of some kind of pastry into his mouth. The sweet taste melted in his mouth, making him smack his lips unconsciously.

At this moment, all evil plans and reigns of fear seem... unimportant.

Su Tang was flattered and became quite smug. Her little chest puffed out even more unconsciously, and her tail wagged proudly, the golden heart sparkling in the dappled sunlight.

Driven by this overwhelming emotion, Su Tang climbed onto the stone bench in the corridor, waved his little fists at the group of elderly female soldiers surrounding him, and announced his grand plan:

"Listen up, you old folks!" he shouted, trying to regain his villainous aura, but his bulging cheeks made him look cute and comical.

"From this day forward, you are the insects I, Su Tang, have chosen! My goal is to conquer the stars and the sea, casting my evil shadow over the entire universe! You will be the first evil legion under my command!"

The veteran women listened with shining eyes, their bodies trembling with excitement!

Listen to this! What lofty ambitions! What domineering declarations! This gentleman is not only kind-hearted, generously contributing male insect hormones to these dying insects, but he is also willing to let a group of old bones who are about to be buried become his followers?

"I swear to follow you to the death!" The old marshal, whose dessert had been stolen earlier, was the first to kneel down excitedly and give a standard military salute, his movements so nimble that he didn't look like an old man at all.

"To expand your territory! To sweep across the stars!" The old soldier with the broken arm clenched his fist with his only remaining hand and pounded his chest, making a loud thud.

"My old bones can still carry a gun! I'm willing to be your vanguard!"

"Count me in! Let those young guys on the front lines see what it means to be a veteran of the Empire!"

"Long live the Tang family army! Long live His Excellency Su Tang!"

In an instant, the crowd was filled with excitement and fervor! It was as if this was not a quiet afternoon corridor of the retirement home, but a rally to rouse people to the front lines!

The veteran female soldiers, one by one like hot-blooded young men, all expressed their willingness to don their armor again and go through fire and water for Your Excellency's "evil plan"!

The live stream room also got really excited:

[“Sugar Army”! I’d be hooked too!]

[Oh no, now Tang Bao can really conquer the world (although she's already conquered the world with cuteness?), these are all heavyweight retired elite soldiers!]

[Let me join too! I'm so jealous! Even the old man has become a follower, and I've never even been attacked by a male!]

[Quickly check StarNet! The trending topics are exploding!]

#HeroinesNeverAge—Sugar Family Army Suicide Squad Recruitment Notice# quickly rose to the top of the trending searches!

Clicking through reveals a flurry of heated posts and comment sections:

[Subject: The entire 3rd Retired Platoon of the 7th Legion is enlisting! We request to rejoin the team! We will fight for you! (HOT)]

[Hot comment: Woohoo, this is so exciting! My grandpa watched the live stream and immediately brought out the power hammer he'd hidden when he retired from the army! (Highly praised)]

[Subject: Female retired border guard, ID TX-1089, requests coordinates! Willing to contribute to your evil cause! (HOT)]

[Popular comment: My body couldn't handle the regeneration of severed limbs, so I was retired. But even with just one arm, I can still pilot a mecha! Please take me in! (Highly praised)]

……

On the other side of the distant stars, on the outer perimeter of a planet that has just experienced a catastrophe, its surface scarred and not yet fully cooled.

The silver-white elite destroyer "Winter" hovered in the desolate universe like a cold tombstone. The dust and residual energy clinging to its hull told the story of the violent operation that had just taken place.

On the main seat of the bridge, Lancelot's beautiful pink hair was meticulously tied back with a metal hair tie. A drop of blood stained his snow lotus-like, aloof and delicate face, like a naturally formed cinnabar mole.

The air pressure around him was so low it was almost freezing, colder than the deep air outside the window.

Her violet eyes stared emotionlessly at the main screen in front of her—in the image, Su Tang was giving orders to Rohart in an imperious manner.

And that red-haired bastard! How dare he get so close to you! You even... moved into his house! Even when you went to that damned retirement home, he was the only one you brought with you!

Why Rohart?!

Why him?! That rude, barbaric, and stupid red-bellied dragonfly!

The poisonous fire of jealousy nearly consumed Lancelot's reason.

When he saw Su Tang eating the food made by those old men with a satisfied smile, he clenched his fists tightly, and the metal armrests groaned under his fingertips.

Those annoying redheads, those annoying old men...

"Return progress." Lancelot's voice was so cold it could freeze your soul.

"Commander, report! 'Star Tear Crystal' has been safely stored! Engine warm-up complete..."

"Too slow." Lancelot's voice was flat. "Pass the order: all units, enter wartime return-to-base status. Ignore unnecessary cooldowns and conduct continuous jumps. I need to return to the central star system as quickly as possible."

The subordinate's pupils contracted. Continuous warp jumps place an enormous strain on the ship's hull and pose a severe test for the crew; they are typically only used in the most urgent wartime situations!

"Commander! This is against safety regulations! And the crew has just undergone intense combat..."

"Execute the order." Lancelot interrupted him, a blizzard raging deep within his violet eyes, a burning obsession beneath the cold. "I need the fastest speed. Any obstacles are unnecessary."

The subordinate shuddered, recalling the troublemakers of the J-1 Commando Suicide Squad who had defied the airborne commander and were now lying in the medical bay groaning in pain—now even those monsters dared not disobey this man's orders…

He dared not say another word and hurriedly left to relay the instructions.

Lancelot stopped looking at the utterly destroyed galaxy and took out an exquisite silver-white sealed jar from his pocket, inside which were a few strands of black hair.

His face darkened. Those damned parasites of the Male Protection Association dared to keep the blanket that Lord Male Insect had slept on!

However, these are now all part of his collection.

He stroked his body; the tight-fitting combat uniform under his military uniform had now been replaced by a small blanket.

Lancelot rubbed his stomach and carefully opened the sealed jar, taking a deep, fascinated sniff.

An unnatural blush rose on his cold face, and a twisted, intense longing surged deep within his purple eyes. The faint, almost imperceptible scent of male insect hormones in his nostrils, yet one that haunted his dreams, was the only thing that could temporarily quell the burning fire within him.

He switched the live stream to a close-up of Su Tang, looking at her bright, lively amber eyes filled with tears, and at her rosy lips that were babbling out willful commands...

Lancelot imagined that it was him giving him orders...

He was the one feeding them...

He was the one being relied upon...

He moved into his home...

He closed his eyes, roughly kneading the blanket, trying to imprint the illusory atmosphere deep into his mind, attempting to fill the emptiness and violence in his heart with this false comfort... After a long time, he finally let out a sigh.
