Dressed as the only Omega in the Star Military Academy

Chapter 665 Hunger.

Lu Chihuan's vision was dim.

Because he was hiding in the silk cocoon, he basically couldn't see what was happening outside. Now he could only listen carefully to the movements outside to judge where he was now.

He pursed his lips unconsciously.

soon.

All he could hear was the rustling sound of the Zerg's feet on the ground as they moved, and the hoarse and unpleasant "hissing" sound they made when communicating with each other. To Lu Chihuan, this was like a foreign language.

So he didn't quite understand.

However, along the way, no Zerg seemed to notice anything wrong with the silk cocoon.

So it was a long walk.

After turning several corners, Lu Chihuan found that the surroundings suddenly became quiet.

The Zergs were careful to slow down their movements, as if they were worried about disturbing a great and respected being to them, so there was almost no communication throughout the process.

After a while.

Lu Chihuan heard some chewing sounds.

It sounded like something was desperately stuffing food into its mouth.

He heard the teeth-grinding crunching sound of food being cut by sharp teeth, followed by the eager swallowing and the heavy gulping sound of food entering the esophagus.

This is……

Insect mother.

And it is also possible that it is a queen insect that is in a state of extreme hunger.

If you think about it carefully, you will know.

After the world branch collapsed, only the fragments in this wormhole remained.

perhaps.

At the beginning, there was still enough food in the wormhole, but as time went on, the edible things inside would become less and less.

However, the Zerg have a strong ability to reproduce, and they have no natural enemies in this fragment, so their population will only expand to an almost unimaginable number.

The edible food in the wormhole naturally cannot supply so many Zergs.

So when the food is empty.

The Zerg will fall into hunger, and when the hunger reaches a certain level, they may become so hungry that their eyes turn red, and then start to kill each other, trying to snatch a piece of meat from each other.

If nothing unexpected happens -

All living creatures still alive in this wormhole will either starve to death.

Or they will be eaten by their own kind.

In the end, they will all disappear into the vast universe along with these fragments.

However, the enemies of the world consciousness suddenly intervened and sent them to the world branch with abundant food in front of them.

What will the hungry Zerg do first when they arrive in a world with abundant food?

To fill my stomach, of course.

It is for this reason that the Zerg in the wormhole are so eager to attack the area under the jurisdiction of the Ghost Pirates Group that is closest to them. That is all edible food for them.

Fortunately.

At the beginning, the pirates of the Ghost Star Pirates and Lu Chihuan worked together to kill the invading Zerg, otherwise they would definitely cause heavy losses to the area under the jurisdiction of the Ghost Star Pirates.

Then again.

The worm queen is unable to leave the wormhole due to certain limitations of its own body structure. It must have been hungry for a long time.

That's why I eat so voraciously now.

Whether it is a human or an animal, when they are hungry, their emotions will become extremely irritable, and their attack power will suddenly increase compared to usual.

just thought of.

When he got out later, he would face this hungry insect queen face to face. Lu Chihuan felt his palms sweating and his heartbeat sounded like the rapid beats of a drum.

The whole person seemed a little nervous.

The chewing sound continued for a long time. After listening to it for a long time, Lu Chihuan didn't think it was so scary anymore. It even sounded a bit like a lullaby before going to bed. At this moment, he couldn't help but yawned softly and looked drowsy.

No.

You need to be sober.

Lu Chihuan pinched his cheek, forced himself to cheer up again, then took out the energy detector from the storage ring, lowered his eyes and adjusted it carefully.

First of all.

First adjust the reminder tone to a slight vibration.

In addition, check whether various functions can still be used normally, whether the battery is sufficient, etc.

This thing is used to find the "core" in the wormhole. The formation of such a huge wormhole must require a huge amount of energy, and the so-called "core" is the place where this energy is gathered and stored.

As long as this energy dissipates.

Then the wormhole will naturally disappear.

As long as Lu Chihuan places the explosive device on top of this "core", the power generated by the explosion will be enough to detonate the power stored in the "core" for a second time. In this way, the Zerg in the wormhole will basically have no chance of survival.

"Finish."

Lu Chihuan narrowed his eyes.

At this moment, the corners of his lips were slightly raised, his eyes looked sparkling, and after his lips moved, he murmured silently, "Next, we just need to wait for the right time."

soon.

He heard the sound of the insect queen chewing food stop. It seemed that it was barely full this time, but it was still dissatisfied with its people, so it made an angry hissing sound.

It seems like I'm blaming them...

Couldn't bring more food.

When there was a shortage of food in the wormhole before, its people started killing each other because they were so hungry, but because of their absolute loyalty to the Worm Mother, the war did not affect the Worm Mother.

But even so.

The life of the Insect Queen is still not much better.

After all, the number of Zerg dropped sharply during that period, and the wormholes were full of body parts and blood. If left for a long time, they might rot and stink, or even produce viruses, so the Zerg even had to spare some manpower to clean up.

Therefore.

There were not enough Zerg people going out to find food for the Zerg Queen, and the food in the wormhole was already exhausted. So no matter how angry the Zerg Queen was, the food sent to her was still not enough to fill her up.

Its huge body began to shrink slowly, and its stored fat was consumed.

This also means that

It doesn't have the energy to lay eggs.

Although the insect queen is now trying to replenish the fat and energy she has consumed in a planned way, the effect is not very good, so she fell into a rage.

The Zerg below immediately let out a short and nervous hiss.

It seems like he is begging for mercy.

In a short while, they evacuated the breeding room where the insect mother was as if their butts were in a hurry. The rustling sound made by their front paws on the ground also had a bit of haste.

The Insect Mother was still not satisfied.

After complaining a few hisses, it slowly closed its eyes and began to rest.

This is for it...

It is also a way to restore the body.

Lu Chihuan kept his ears perked up to listen to the noise outside. After he heard the slightly heavy and steady breathing of the insect mother, he carefully took out the dagger hanging on his waist.

He was in no hurry to get out.

He first cut a small hole in the silk cocoon, and then carefully observed the situation outside through the half-open gap.

The gestation room was extremely dark.

Lu Chihuan's eyesight is pretty good, so he can see his current situation clearly.

Scattered around him were white silk cocoons piled up like small hills. These were the food that the out-going Zerg had found for the Zerg Queen. Although the portions seemed large, with the Zerg Queen's appetite, she could basically finish them all in less than two days.

Therefore.

So after the insect queen had barely eaten her fill, she immediately urged the insects to find food for her.

but.

This is very convenient for Lu Chihuan.

After all, the stacked cocoons formed a blind spot of vision. After he crawled out of the silk cocoon where he was hiding, he could use the pile of silk cocoons in front of him to hide his body and whereabouts.

Not far away was the insect mother's body that looked like a small mountain.

Its abdomen was swollen and enlarged.

But the head is of normal proportions, and at first glance appears to be white and almost translucent in color. Although the body is too heavy to move, there seems to be a lump moving on one side, making it look a bit weird.

nowadays.

The insect queen was indeed in deep sleep, with her abdomen rising and falling.

He seemed to be sleeping particularly deeply.

Seeing this, Lu Chihuan cut the hole on the silk cocoon a little more, then stretched his body, which was already curled up and a little sore, and slipped out through the gap in the silk cocoon like a nimble fish.

It's finally out.

Lu Chihuan moved his body slightly, then lowered his head and sniffed the smell on his body. Suddenly, an indescribable smell rushed into his nostrils.

This is the smell formed after the biological tissue in the silk cocoon liquefies.

It was probably because he had stayed in the silk cocoon for too long that he was now pickled by the smell. He didn't know how many times he would have to take a bath to wash off the smell after he returned to the Ghost Pirates.

But this is not a big problem.

He has not left the hive yet. The smell on his body can help him conceal his own breath and deceive the Zerg and the Zerg Queen.

Think about it this way.

He didn't bother about anything anymore.

Just as he was about to use a detector to detect where the "core" in the wormhole was, he felt something falling from the sky and landed on his collar.

That little thing is very agile.

Soon, it crawled along Lu Chihuan's arm to his palm, and then rubbed it a few times intimately and carefully.

Lu Chihuan looked carefully.

Those beautiful almond-shaped eyes widened instantly. He was surprised and happy. He wanted to say something but realized that he was still in the insect nest, so he raised his hand to cover his mouth.

A moment later.

He then whispered, "Little robot, so you are here."

What fell into his hand was the small spider-shaped robot he had sent out earlier.

But now it looks dirty, with dust all over it from somewhere, and there are a few gray-white spider silks wrapped around its body.

Lu Chihuan immediately took out his handkerchief.

Wipe off all the dust and spider silk on it.

Then he placed it on his shoulder again. When he turned his head, the smile on the corner of his lips was soft, and the voice was lowered to almost inaudible:

"Since we have both sneaked in here, why don't we carefully look for where the core in the wormhole is hidden, how about..."

"A game?"

Although they are still in danger now, just like walking on a tightrope on a cliff and there is a risk of falling down at any time, it is precisely because of this that they need to keep calm.

Being too nervous can also cause problems.

Now, finding some fun for themselves without disturbing their original purpose is also a way to relax.

The spider-bot nodded.

After it climbed down from Lu Chihuan's body, it began to move its legs and quickly explored the breeding room.

although.

It arrived at the incubation room a little earlier than Lu Chihuan, but the Zerg Queen had not fallen asleep before, and there were Zergs coming in and out. If it acted rashly, it would likely attract the attention of the other party.

Therefore, the spider-like robot also climbed to the top of the incubator and lay dormant.

Until Lu Chihuan appeared.

It is showing up.

After Lu Chihuan turned on the detection instrument in his hand, he began to search the incubation room inch by inch. He almost did not miss any place, and tried to make his steps light as possible when walking so as not to wake up the sleeping insect queen.

Not here.

There's none there either.

After searching almost half of the incubation room, the energy detector in Lu Chihuan's hand did not make any beeping sound.

"strangeness."

He lowered his voice and muttered to himself, "It clearly shows that the highest point of energy is near here, but why can't I find the core?"

The little spider-shaped robot jumped onto Lu Chihuan's back. There was clearly no expression on its face, but for some reason, Lu Chihuan could see that it looked somewhat dejected.

Obviously.

It also gained nothing.

Could it be possible that the core of this wormhole could grow legs and run away?

Lu Chihuan muttered to himself.

His eyes unconsciously swept across the entire incubation room, and then fell firmly on the insect mother who was still sleeping soundly. In an instant, his eyes became extremely complicated.

in case.

If there is nothing wrong with the results of the energy detector, then it proves that the "core" is still in the incubation room where the insect mother is located.

He and the little robot had just searched the entire incubator thoroughly.

There was only one place I hadn't found.

That is--

On the body of the insect mother.

Thinking of this possibility, Lu Chihuan gently bit his back teeth.

Then he took a deep breath.

He felt that he was really unlucky. No matter what happened, he was forced to challenge the highest difficulty.

the other side.

He felt somewhat relieved.

Fortunately, his brother was not allowed to enter the breeding room of the insect nest, otherwise if Lu Minghe and the insect queen were face to face, the other party might not be able to handle the current situation.

"Let's go."

He whispered to the small robot lying on his shoulder, "Let's go to the vicinity of the insect mother. The core may be on its body."

Previously, they were worried about waking up the sleeping insect mother, so they basically walked around it. Now, after Lu Chihuan held his breath slightly, he approached the insect mother carefully.

Walk around it a few times.

No.

The energy detector did not vibrate.

If the "core" in the wormhole entered the body of the worm mother or was embedded in its surface, there would definitely be changes. However, he looked several times and found nothing.

If not here.

Where else could it be?

Lu Chihuan bent his fingers and tapped his cheeks a few times, his eyes falling on the insect mother's slightly hideous and sharp mouthparts.

All of a sudden.

He couldn't help swallowing, looking quite resistant.
