Kapitel 54

If a cub is kidnapped, the cub's parents will definitely run after it, but Gu Yunzhou couldn't find anyone like that.

Where the Zerg landed, the dense crowd within a radius of a hundred miles instantly vanished.

There are only two possibilities: either the cub was abandoned, or the cub got separated from its parents.

Gu Yunzhou started to get a headache just thinking about temporarily placing such a fragile life into the machine race.

Gu He's voice came from the other end: "Chief, another team has arrived at the Zerg nest and is awaiting further instructions. Hmm? Wait a minute, their queen seems to be in the reproductive stage. No wonder the Zerg dared to attack like this."

The Zerg have difficulty producing offspring, especially since the birth of larvae requires a lot of energy. No wonder the Zerg dared to attack even when the machine race was still around.

At this point, the Zerg are in a berserk phase, needing energy to sustain the Queen.

And this energy is not simply from energy stones.

And then there's life.

Gu He, seeing something, exclaimed, "Wow, so many Zerg gathered around the mother Zerg! And my goodness, there are so many offspring too!"

He paused, then suddenly remembered that Gu Yunzhou was still connected to their king, and immediately fell silent: "Um, leader, what should we do next?"

It's best not to show this scene to their king.

You should know that the Zerg even eat their own kind.

Gu Yunzhou said, "Have the people over there flank the enemy first. If necessary, capture the mother insect directly. Gu He, you lead a team to attack with me. The rest of the team will remain the same."

"yes."

The communication equipment was shut down with a hiss.

Gu Yunzhou glanced at Ji Zhaoming: "Master."

"Huh?" Ji Zhaoming gripped the seatbelt tightly.

Gu Yunzhou said, "Would you like to take a different kind of trip?"

Amidst the chaos of war, a warship sails through the area.

Every attack from the warship landed squarely on the Zerg, without harming anyone nearby.

The myth of the machine race, buried and forgotten, is slowly being awakened.

But this time, no one was afraid.

The robot in charge of the cleanup approached them again and invited, "Would you like to go to the safe zone?"

This was the second time they had heard the same thing.

The first time, they refused.

Because they have a natural distrust of machine races.

This time, they nodded and said, "Yes!"

Even with the cover of the machine race, escaping to the safe zone was difficult for them. However, whenever someone fell behind, the machine race would simply drag them to the safe zone.

...Well, although the method was simple and crude, at least when we reached the safe zone, no one was lost or injured.

It's worth noting that even machine races find this number incredible.

They had initially thought these people wouldn't cooperate.

Only after reaching the safe base did people have a chance to catch their breath.

One of the women apologized, saying, "I'm sorry, I was prejudiced against you before and rejected you."

When one person apologized, the remaining hesitant people chimed in, "Sorry, I did too..."

Apologetic voices echoed throughout the safe zone.

The robot can adapt to being treated coldly.

But the current situation has left the robot at a loss.

Seeing the gratitude on the faces of the people in front of it, the robot felt a urge to run away, but its legs remained rooted to the spot.

This feeling is amazing.

Even though it made him feel awkward, he couldn't bear to leave.

After a long pause, he said, "Well... you guys stay in the safe zone for now, and I'll call you out after the war is over."

"Are you leaving?" the woman who spoke first asked. "It's dangerous outside. Why don't you stay here too?"

The robot shook its head: "No, I'm going to find my king."

The woman smiled. "The king of the machine race? He must be quite something."

The robot nodded emphatically: "Yes, our king is the best in the world."

This happens in every corner of the planet.

Congratulations on completing the task.

Ji Zhaoming was sitting in the passenger seat of Gu Yunzhou when he suddenly heard the system's voice. He didn't react at first, but when he realized what the system was saying, he suddenly panicked.

Gu Yunzhou was still in control of the warship, and Ji Zhaoming tried hard to suppress his fearful expression so as not to cause him any trouble.

Other robots were responsible for rescue, and Ji Zhaoming could understand the awakening of emotions, but Gu Yunzhou, who was beside him, did nothing at all.

Ji Zhaoming silently asked himself: [What about Gu Yunzhou? Did he achieve his goal as well?]

[Upon inspection, Gu Yunzhou, the leader of the machine race, has achieved the mission objective.]

Ji Zhaoming: [When? Just now? But he clearly didn't do anything!]

The system fell into a brief silence.

So, it really was a detection error, right?

Their three-day courtship has only just begun.

Ji Zhaoming thought to himself with a sense of wishful thinking.

System: [Detection shows that Gu Yunzhou achieved his mission objective the moment he saw you.]

Gu Yunzhou is a man who never lies.

[Mission complete, about to leave this world...]

Ji Zhaoming could no longer hide the panic on his face, and he asked somewhat blankly, "Are we leaving already?"

The system asked in return: "Don't you want to leave?"

Does Ji Zhaoming want to?

Of course he wanted to.

Even though he was cherished by the machine race, he knew very well that this world did not belong to him; he had his own classmates and friends in another world.

The world did not shape his worldview or nurture his personality.

If you don't want to leave because of the machine race's favor, isn't that a form of self-denial?

Can……

But he hadn't even said goodbye properly yet.

His throat felt as if it were being gripped tightly by an invisible hand, preventing him from making a sound.

"Master?" Gu Yunzhou noticed Ji Zhaoming's strange behavior and asked, "What's wrong?"

Now that the Zerg have been scattered and rendered insignificant, Gu Yunzhou, operating the buttons with one hand, turned his head and asked, "Are you scared?"

Ji Zhaoming: "I..."

He's a liar.

He shouldn't have agreed to Gu Yunzhou's offer of a three-day relationship.

Gu Yunzhou seemed to realize something, and his hand gripping the control panel tightened suddenly.

He lowered his eyes and asked, "Is Master leaving?"

Ji Zhaoming nodded bitterly.

Gu Yunzhou smiled and said, "I'm happy to see that Master is sad about this."

This at least shows that the machine race would make Ji Zhaoming feel reluctant to part with them.

[Countdown: 3 seconds]

Gu Yunzhou stretched and pressed the last button: "Master still owes me two and a half days of dating time, don't forget."

[Countdown: 2 seconds]

Ji Zhaoming solemnly replied, "I will not forget."

[Countdown: 1 second.]

Gu Yunzhou suddenly laughed.

This smile was different from usual, as if something had been released. He straightened up and looked at Ji Zhaoming: "Then Master should forget about it. Hmm... I'd like to invite Master to watch one last fireworks display."

boom.

The Zerg, which had been struggling to hold on, could no longer withstand the machine race's firepower and were destroyed in the sky.

[Countdown: 0 seconds]

The Zerg have been driven out.

But his king has vanished from his seat.

*

The thick smoke made people feel suffocated, and tears streamed down their faces uncontrollably.

Ji Zhaoming coughed hard, struggled to open his eyes, and vaguely focused his gaze on the sky.

The smoke was getting thicker.

Ji Zhaoming knew perfectly well that if he didn't escape from here, he would lose his life.

With his limbs feeling weak, Ji Zhaoming forced himself to get up.
