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

The little male insect, like a true emperor, arrogantly crossed his arms and surveyed the entire scene. His gaze swept over the kneeling high-ranking officials, then over the direction of the wounded struggling in pain in the distance. Then, with all his might, he loudly proclaimed his "villain's declaration":

"From this day forward! The Imperial Central Military Academy! And all the insects present! Including those lying on the ground!"

The small hand swung with force, yet it was full of momentum.

"All must submit to me, the King! Submit to the 'Red Sugar Society'! Acknowledge my title, 'King of Shadows'! Upon seeing me, you must bow deeply! Shout 'Long live the King of Shadows!' Who dares to disobey..."

Su Tang paused deliberately, trying to put on a serious face to create a terrifying atmosphere. He stood on tiptoe again and patted Morpheus's huge, cold foot blade beside him, making a crisp sound.

"Hehehe... Let him taste the power of the 'Abyss Spider'!"

The young male insect pointed at Morpheus and loudly announced his "terrifying threat."

This threat is no small matter; it is truly terrifying.

But the scene was deathly silent.

A deathly silence more thorough and more eerie than before.

The academy's high-ranking officials, kneeling on the ground, were completely petrified.

The instructor's mouth hung open, his face frozen in a comical blank stare of despair and pleading.

The school board members still had tears on their faces, but their eyes were filled with disbelief and bewilderment.

To whom should we submit?

What exactly is brown sugar?

Uh… excuse me, they're getting old and their brains aren't quite keeping up with kids' thinking, but no matter how you look at it, these words translate to: submit to this male insect lord, and every time you greet him, change your usual greetings to…

Long live the Lord of Shadows?

This... this is really a condition proposed by a male insect after much deliberation? This is too simple, a million times more outrageous than any of the territorial concessions and reparations they had imagined!

What's the difference between this and a living Bodhisattva?

A group of old men, who had spent half their lives in political and academic struggles and were particularly hard-hearted, could not believe what they were hearing, and tears streamed down their faces.

No wonder, no wonder so many people online say this is a male Bodhisattva, he really is a kind and lovely Bodhisattva!

In comparison, those who were constantly thinking about how to trick the male insects out of their hormones, and even prepared to take them by force, were utterly despicable!

Freya's lips twitched violently. She felt as if she had consumed a lot of male insect hormones, and her perfectly healthy mind was about to be disturbed by these absurd conditions.

The expressions of Isaac and the Adrode brothers were even more fascinating, like a spilled palette, their eyes filled with astonishment, which then turned into a hint of helplessness and relief.

Lancelot… Even if Lancelot didn't want to, what could he do? The male lord had already made his decision. The pink-haired female insect gritted her teeth and snorted, "You old geezers got off easy."

The only one who could remain absolutely calm throughout the entire event was Klein.

The Imperial Marshal's icy blue eyes quietly watched his lord, watched his little darling trying his best to play the innocent "big bad guy," and watched the pure, unadulterated excitement and pride in his eyes, as if it were a game.

The little face, strained and trying to make a fierce expression, looked more like a fanged, clawing cat-like creature trying to scare away insects in Klein's eyes.

He always knew that the baby was so adorable.

The corners of his lips curved upwards in an almost imperceptible, extremely subtle arc, so fleeting that the insect thought it was an illusion.

Then, Klein slowly spoke, breaking the silence.

The marshal's voice remained steady, revealing neither joy nor anger, yet carrying an undeniable authority that clearly resonated throughout the entire arena:

"Your Majesty's conditions," his icy blue gaze swept over the kneeling academy officials who looked as if struck by lightning, "you all heard them?"

The instructor kneeling at the front suddenly jolted awake from his daze.

He glanced at Su Tang's "fierce" face, then at the silent, mountain-like, terrifying black behemoth beside him, and finally at the marshal's calm yet imbued with boundless pressure in his icy blue eyes...

He abruptly lowered his head, his forehead slamming heavily against the ground again. His voice, distorted and strained by extremely complex emotions, was choked with sobs:

"I heard...I heard it! The Imperial Central Military Academy...will...will submit to the 'Red Sugar Society'!Submit to...Your Excellency the 'Shadow King'! Long...Long live the Shadow King!"

That final shout of "Long live!" was utterly sincere.

How could he not be sincere? For a sir like this, let alone long live, he even hopes that this person can live forever!

With the leader taking the lead, the school board members and directors behind him seemed to wake up from a dream and followed suit, kowtowing in different ways, their voices filled with sobs and excitement.

In an instant, shouts of "Long live!" rose and fell, echoing across the battlefield that had just witnessed a bloody massacre.

"We surrender! We surrender!"

"Long live the Lord of Shadows!"

"This old man is willing to represent his clan in joining the Red Sugar Society! No, this old man will lead his entire clan of insects to merge into Lord Su Tang's clan! From now on, we will become Lord Su Tang's subjects, and will go through fire and water for you without hesitation!"

The insects: "?"

Lancelot leaped forward, grabbing the speaker's beard. "Old man, how dare you take advantage of me like this!"

The female insects kneeling with him also pointed and whispered, "A board member, huh? He's so clueless."

But Su Tang's face lit up instantly.

His amber eyes curved into crescents, filled with the thought, "I am deeply pleased."

He succeeded! He really did resemble a villain in a TV drama, gathering so many subordinates! Even the Imperial Military Academy submitted!

He proudly raised his chin, basking in the moment of everyone's submission, and even winked at the giant Morpheus beside him, as if to say: Look! Aren't I amazing!

but……

What exactly is this "male insect hormone" that these old guys are talking about?

A hint of doubt flashed through Su Tang's mind. He seemed to remember having some kind of male insect hormone (EX) attribute? Could this be it?

Oh, I see, it must be his internal energy!

Alright, so these old guys want him to demonstrate his evil qigong!

"Adlaud!"

Su Tang waved her small hand, pointing to the temporary resettlement area in the distance, trying her best to maintain the demeanor of a "villainous boss," and said, "Go! Gather all those... um... subjects who have already pledged their allegiance to this king. This king will let them experience the... terror of the 'Shadow King'!"

He emphasized the word "horror" heavily, trying his best to imitate the villain's tone.

Adlaud: "..."

"Yes, my king." The orange-haired female insect responded in a strange tone, her expression indescribable, but she still quickly went to carry out the order.

Lancelot took a deep breath, trying to calm his turbulent thoughts, and began to direct the rescue.

Freya calmed down and tended to the injuries of the female insects, but he couldn't help but glance at his own little male insect, who was standing with his hands on his hips, looking smug. His copper-green pupils were filled with deep helplessness and a hint of barely perceptible indulgence.

Su Tang thought for a moment, since she was going to perform her powerful evil qigong, it had to be cool!

"Isaac, I want to ride Morpheus!" Little Nose Ga pointed at the big monster and jumped up and down in front of his huge foot blades.

"Brother Su Tang, this..." Isaac's eyelids twitched. Ride Morpheus? How could he even think of that!

The female insect's brown eyes swept over the enormous monster, whose body was covered in sharp spikes. How could she possibly step on it?

The only place a bug can sit is probably its upper body, which frightens bugs...

He glanced at Klein instinctively, and seeing him nod, he lifted the little male insect high up by the armpit of the fork and handed it to Morpheus.

The pitch-black monster obediently lowered its head, bending down to allow the male insect to reach it.

Su Tang was placed on Morpheus's shoulder, nestled between the armor protruding from his shoulder and his cheek, hugging the monster's neck like a delicate doll adorning its body.

Klein stood there, watching his master begin to "inspect" his "new territory" like a proud little peacock. In the depths of his icy blue eyes, the subtle smile was no longer concealed, like a warm spring quietly flowing beneath the ice.

"Hmph, everyone's here?"

Su Tang glanced around and saw that the person closest to him was a familiar face, Edward Hosen, the principal of the Imperial Military Academy.

The old female insect was also in the VIP section. She had probably managed to resist the chaos and was also under the influence of hallucinogens. Her injuries were very severe, and her entire face was covered in blood. If it weren't for her clothes and her signature white hair, Su Tang would hardly have recognized her.

Besides, there were many female insects sitting or standing on the ground, clutching their heads and howling in pain, but most of the insects lay unconscious on the ground without a sound, their fate unknown.

"Great! It's my turn to perform!"

The little male insect held Morpheus's neck with one hand, and with the other hand, it made a circle, struck a pose, and shouted, "Evil Qi Gong—Break!"

Under the expectant gazes of the insects, the evil monster didn't utter a single fart... no, it didn't even defeat a single insect.

But the insects still stared intently at the young male insect.

About half a minute passed, and still no earth-shattering, terrifying explosion occurred. Su Tang was losing face, and the little male insect's face turned red. He was so angry that he wanted to kill all the insects who had witnessed his disheveled appearance!

[Male Insect Toxin Level: EX (Extreme) Triggered. Host, please exercise self-control immediately.]

"It's...it's male hormone!"

"Such a rich aroma!"

"A male...I want a male!"

The still-conscious female insects are constantly on guard against those female insects whose minds are in turmoil, to prevent them from doing anything to harm the male insects.

But with Morpheus present, their ingrained instinct to seek advantage and avoid harm kept them relatively restrained. With the help of the male insect hormone, they soon fell asleep with smiles on their faces.

The already dormant female insects gradually changed from pained expressions to peaceful ones.

But the male insect hormone was more potent than the female insects had imagined. Even the still conscious female insects were affected and collapsed one by one.

[Male Insect Toxin Level: EX (Extreme) Triggered. Host, please exercise self-control immediately.]

The system seems to be saying something?

Su Tang shook her head.

He felt like he hadn't paid any attention to the system in a long time. The system had been silent for so long that he had almost forgotten it even existed.

[Male Insect Toxin Level: EX (Extreme) Triggered. Host, please exercise self-control immediately.]

Wait, isn't he supposed to be paying off his loan every day?

Why isn't the system reminding him...? Oh right, ever since the program was updated, the system now requires the host to actively check it; it has disabled automatic prompts.

[Male Insect Toxin Level: EX (Extreme) Triggered. Host, please exercise self-control immediately.]

What are you babbling about?

Su Tang felt a little drunk. Although he had never drunk alcohol before, his head was spinning, somewhat like when he was sick before, but also a little different. He felt like he couldn't breathe properly.

[Excessive release of male insect hormones has triggered a critical condition in the host.]

[Please exercise self-control in time.]

[Host Su Tang, stop immediately!]

Su Tang couldn't hear the system's urgent warning; all she felt was a buzzing in her head.

The male insect's amber eyes turned into a dazzling gold, like the scorching sun, and looked like flowing gold in its watery pupils.

【…】

[Clear the restart plan progress; energy priority will now be adjusted to—Host Su Tang.]

【当前重启进度：89%……67%……54%……32%……10%……0%】

As the system announced, a large amount of male insect hormones overflowed from Su Tang's body.

The incident happened in an instant. Even Klein, who had been keeping his mental energy focused on Su Tang, and Morpheus, who was his mount, didn't have time to react before they were overwhelmed by the male insect essence.

The 3S-level female insects were instantly knocked down.

Moreover, the entire planet was now like a dead city, with all the insects, whether present or not, asleep.

Currently, the only insect that can still move is Su Tang.

only……

The little male insect didn't seem very awake either; although its bright golden eyes were wide open, they were lifeless.

Morpheus's monstrous insect form disappeared when he was overwhelmed by the male insect essence, and the female insect, who had returned to her normal form, lay on the ground and used her generous tusks as a cushion to catch her male master.

Su Tang subconsciously squeezed the worm in her hand; the familiar touch made the little male worm feel at ease.

So the male insect tore open the packaging bag... but couldn't open it, so it could only bite it with its teeth and tear at the food packaging bag with its hands and feet.

Unfortunately, the packaging was too airtight, and the male insect's not-so-sharp milk teeth could only leave a few marks, which disappeared after a while.

"Waaah..." the little male insect was on the verge of tears, "It hurts so much..."

"I want to CB."

The male insect's eyes were vacant, and it fussed over twice in a daze, seemingly unsure how to solve its current predicament.

How can we conduct a large-scale survey of school currency?

The male insect is so strong that it can't even tear off a food packaging bag.

Su Tang, already in a state of confusion, had no idea what to do.

The little creature could only follow its instincts and touched Morpheus's face.

Su Tang pinched the face of the black-haired female insect. Fortunately, the unconscious Morpheus's face did not stiffen, but could be squeezed into various shapes by Su Tang.

The young male insect, also lacking consciousness and acting solely on instinct, casually rubbed and squeezed Morpheus's mouth.

Since that's the case...

Then you can make several sets of them, right?
