Chapter 656 King Zemira: Human words?
The Sky Whale is dispatched!!!

but
Cui Ming held onto the handrail to steady himself. He watched the monitor showing Higashi Kotaro busy on the deck, his temples throbbing. "Kotaro, why are you putting a big net under the Sky Whale?"

"Ah? Isn't the captain going to catch Daichi?" Kotaro's voice came from the intercom with a hint of excitement. He was directing the mechanical arm to fix a metal net the size of a football field to the belly of the battleship. There were fluorescent baits wrapped between the meshes. "I checked the information. King Zemira will glide at low altitude when he emerges from his wings!"

"..TM!!! We are going to solve the problem of the giant cicada!! Not to catch it!!!" Cui Ming's roar made the operators around him shrink their necks. He suddenly pulled open the buttons of his collar, revealing the hideous old scar under his collarbone - that was the souvenir left by the acid attack of the super-giant mother creature queen ant.

This is also why Cui Ming didn't like to face off when he was with Katsuragi Misato before. After all, his injuries were too scary.

"You want the flames from that thing to burn the Sky Whale into scrap metal?!"

Kirisaki had leaned against the porthole at some point, holding a thin energy cigarette between his fingertips. "By the way, how does the cicada taste?" He exhaled lavender smoke, his eyes sweeping over Cui Ming's suddenly stiff back.

"Oh, this one is very simple." Cui Ming took out a crumpled holographic projection card from the pocket of his tactical vest and threw it to Kirisaki. A blue light spread between the two of them, and densely packed recipes flashed by like flowing water:

Fried cicadas:

Steps: Wash the cicadas and soak them in light salt water for 15 minutes (the apocalyptic version needs to be rinsed with radiation remover). Take them out and use military compressed biscuits to absorb the moisture. Start the vehicle-mounted field stove, pour in mutant vegetable oil (Gomora fat extract is recommended), put in the cicadas when the oil temperature rises to 180℃, turn them over with a tactical dagger until the shell is browned, and sprinkle with rock salt (which can be replaced by mecha repair lubricant).

Note: The crispy outer shell can shield radiation particles, and the high-protein inside can quickly restore physical strength. It was once the standard field ration for the EDF ruins troops.

Spicy stir-fried cicadas:

Improved version: Soak the cicadas in disinfectant alcohol to remove the fishy smell (this can be omitted in a sterile environment in the end times), add shredded ginger (replaced with mutant onions), minced garlic (replaced with fly agaric juice), and dried chili peppers (chopped chili peppers) to a hot pan with cold oil and stir-fry until fragrant. Pour in the cicadas and stir-fry quickly, add the military compressed soy sauce packet, and finally sprinkle with some chopped green onions - this dish was used to boost morale during the third base defense battle.

Kirisaki's pupils gradually dilated as the menu scrolled. When he saw the picture of "Five-spice Deep-fried Cicada Skewers" showing Cui Ming skewering cicadas with the barrel of a Gauss rifle, he couldn't help but laugh out loud: "It seems that the captain has a special liking for this dish?"

"It's good enough to eat some small ones at that time." Cui Ming stared at the big net over there, his voice suddenly low, "Logistics sent a lot of cicada pupae that they found. The situation was not very good at that time. Sprinkling them with the collected seasonings is already the best meal." He suddenly turned around and patted Kirisaki on the shoulder, "If the larvae of King Zemira have problematic flowers, we will eat them. Oh, and remember to tear off the wings first. The flying muscles of that thing are tougher than beef tendons."

"."

No, how do you know so clearly?!
Kirisaki confirmed it again.
Damn Cui Ming has been staring at King Zemira.

The discovery of King Zemira all started on an ordinary afternoon. Someone complained to the Metropolitan Police Department that there was an unusually loud noise somewhere, disturbing the residents nearby. After receiving the complaint, the Metropolitan Police Department wanted to handle it according to the usual procedures, but in view of a series of special events that had happened before, an unwritten rule has now been formed in the Metropolitan Police Department - if there is any disturbance, the Set Team must be notified immediately.

After all, in this crisis-ridden era, the Set Squad, as a professional team that deals with supernatural phenomena and unknown threats, has long become an important collaborative force for the Metropolitan Police Department in handling special incidents.

And the previous wave of people who committed suicide also proved that it is still better to find the Set team.
Therefore, the Metropolitan Police Department quickly informed the Sett Team of the situation. After receiving the news, the Sett Team did not dare to neglect it and immediately sent members to the source of the sound to investigate. When the members arrived at the scene and carefully explored the secret behind the sound source, they were shocked by the scene in front of them - the so-called noisy sound came from a huge but obviously underdeveloped creature. Later, it was identified that it was the larval stage of King Zemira.

King Zemira, who was mentioned sporadically in some documents, now appeared before everyone's eyes. He exuded a strange aura, and although his larval form did not fully demonstrate the legendary deterrence, it also revealed a sense of oppression that could not be ignored.

When Cui Ming saw the larva of King Zemira, a ridiculous idea popped up in his mind uncontrollably - eat it.

"Oh... don't blame me, I feel greedy when I see you!" Cui Ming stared at the larva, his eyes showing both professional vigilance and a hint of irrepressible "appetite".

Perhaps in the eyes of others, when faced with such a mysterious creature full of unknown dangers, the first consideration should be how to control and study it to prevent it from bringing unpredictable disasters.

But Cui Ming is an expert in dealing with giant insects.
So my first thought when I saw this thing was actually the same as Kirisaki's.
Also eat.

However, jokes aside, the professionalism of the Set team allowed them to quickly focus on business.

How should we deal with this Zemira King, which is still in its larval stage? Should we control it for further research, or take other more prudent measures?

The team members had a heated discussion around this issue. Cui Ming and Kirisaki's idea of ​​"eating it" was also mentioned from time to time in the subsequent discussions. Although it was just a joke, it was not impossible.
but
This guy is about to develop into an adult.
Considering that King Zemira has the same characteristics as a cicada and only lives for one week, it is not very harmful to humans, so the Set team plans to set up a protective net on the spot to capture it and restrict its activities.

after all
Do you really want to start attacking right away?
That's easy to anger this thing
The purpose of the Set team is to protect, not to destroy.
And the most important thing is that this is an urban area.
Therefore, direct bombing is not allowed, and the use of super-temperature difference light is even more unacceptable.

And Cui Ming has now come before King Zemira.

"Let me ask you something. After you die, can we eat you while you're still hot?"

"?!??!"
