Zerg: Why is the Overlord like that?

Jian Chi raised an eyebrow.

If he didn't know that Phil and Elvis's relationship wasn't very good, he would have thought that Phil was actually asking on behalf of Elvis.

"What do you mean?"

Phil quickly replied, "If I told you I might have a way to help Elvis regain his mental strength, but only if you love him, would you believe me?"

Upon seeing this sentence, Jian Chi couldn't help but recall the post he had seen back then.

If he's not mistaken, that's what Phil was talking about.

Sure enough, before he could reply, Phil sent another message:

"Your Excellency Jianchi may have heard the legend that if a male and female insect are deeply comforted multiple times when they are so in love that they are willing to give their lives, it will gradually enhance their spiritual power."

"This is not a legend, but a real fact. However, in all these years, apart from that one pair, the Zerg have never encountered the same situation again."

"However, this is very likely. If you and Elvis are truly in love, Elvis's mental strength may gradually recover."

Jian Chi remained calm as he read the message sent by Fei Er.

After a long while, he returned to Fell.

"Why are you telling me this?"

"Because I believe that Lord Jianchi and Elvis are in love, and you are different from other male insects."

Even with your current 3S+ mental strength, I suspect you've never considered marrying female servants or slaves, am I right?

"I don't know what I did to give you this misconception, but I'll only say this once, General Fair: don't try to guess what I'm thinking, and don't try to test me."

After Jian Chi sent that message, there was no reply from the other side for a long time.

The system, which had been silently observing this, was also quite curious.

[Host, do you mean you would marry a female servant/slave? Or do you not like Elvis?]

Jian Chi didn't reply; his gaze fell on the villa entrance, as if he were thinking about something.

A while later, Fair sent a message requesting a video.

Jian Chi accepted it.

A female soldier with short, dark blue hair and pure black pupils appeared on the screen.

The female soldier remained solemn.

The moment the call connected, Feier took a step back and bowed deeply to Jian Chi.

"I'm sorry, Lord Jian Chi, I did test you just now."

I never expected Jian Chi to be so smart.

"But I didn't lie to you, because that's what I really thought, and I wanted to help Admiral Elvis regain his mental strength."

Why do you want to help Elvis?

Felton paused for a moment and said:

"Now, ferocious beasts have appeared in various star systems of the empire. Although they have appeared before, this time the situation is really a bit strange. Although there are not many ferocious beasts, they keep coming in one after another."

I have a feeling that this situation will continue for a long time, and that something truly terrible might happen.

Jian Chi was somewhat surprised.

To be honest, Phil's intuition was spot on.

"General Avis is one of only two people in the Empire with double-S mental power. If he can recover his mental power, it will be a good thing for the Zerg," Fell continued.

If Admiral Avis regains his mental strength, the Zerg will have two S-rank admirals, giving them a fighting chance against unknown dangers.

If it were any other male insect, Fell would never have made such a probing move.

However, even he felt that Lord Jian Chi was too mysterious and unpredictable, which was why he had just tested him.

"So, if I had told you just now that Elvis and I are truly in love, you would have only told me this legend, right?"

"right."

Jian Chi looked at the handsome but overly serious face on the screen and thought to himself:

"If I answer no, what are you going to do?"

"I'll give you everything to marry me, or you don't have to marry me, as long as you give me multiple deep reassurances."

When he said this, there was no awkwardness or shyness on Fell's face.

Jian Chi then understood what Fei Er meant.

If he answers that he and Elvis are in love, Phil will give up on his own and wait for his mental state to flare up and he will die.

If he answers no, that he will marry a female servant or slave, then Phil will actively seek to become his female servant.

In the later stages of a mental energy outburst, especially for an S-level mental energy like that of Phil, only deep soothing can help.

Even deep soothing of Grade A males cannot completely calm them down; only Grade S and above can.

This is why he went to see Lord Hani before, and now he's coming to see Lord Jianchi.

At the same time, the marshal also sent another message.

"Lord Jian Chi, please reconsider. I really don't want Feier to die from a mental breakdown. Right now, we need him, we need them."

It goes without saying who "they" refers to.

Because of the huge disparity in the ratio of males to females in the Zerg race, many females may never see you in their entire lives, let alone marry you.

The same applies to those S-class female soldiers.

The higher their mental strength, the stronger they are, but it also means that once their mental strength goes berserk, even an A-level lord cannot completely calm them down.

That's why all the Zerg were so shocked and delighted when Hani measured out his S-level mental strength.

Unexpectedly, Lord Hani was unwilling to marry any other insects besides Admiral Carol.

And what about Lord Jian Chi?

"Lord Jianchi, may I ask you what it would take for you to marry me? I..."

As Fell was speaking, he suddenly stopped and looked behind Jian Chi.

Following his gaze, Jian Chi saw Elvis silently passing by from behind and going upstairs.

He had his back to Jian Chi, so his face was not visible, but his back view looked inexplicably lonely.

Jian Chi's smart bracelet was set up so that no other insects could hear the sounds coming from the other side except for him.

Therefore, it couldn't be because of what Fell said.

"Your Excellency Jian Chi, that's all I wanted to say. I hope you'll consider it. Sorry to bother you."

After saying that, Feier hung up the call.

Jian Chi replied to the marshal that he would consider it, and then went to the forum.

I thought the host would go to Elvis.

Why should we look for him?

【Huh? Because Elvis seems to have something on his mind?】

After all, even the system could see that Elvis's condition had started to look off even before he left.

Jian Chi scrolled through the forum posts while replying.

There's no need.

He hates trouble.

He won't actively seek out trouble unless it comes knocking on his door.

Since Elvis didn't say anything, he assumed that the other party could handle it themselves.

He browsed through the posts on the forum.

The posts were all about him, all sorts of things.

Just like with Phil, there were also speculations in the posts about whether he would marry female servants or slaves.

Some of these posts mentioned their female house bugs.

They discussed how to become his female servants and slaves.

Jianchi spent quite a while browsing the forum.

As darkness fell, Elvis went downstairs.
