Zerg: Why is the Overlord like that?

Elvis opened his eyes in a daze.

He felt as if he was in that pure black space one second and then he was gone the next.

He looked at Jian Chi, who was also looking at him and had already withdrawn his hand.

He immediately understood that the black space originated from the powerful ruler.

The female soldiers who had been there earlier also had the same bewildered expression after the male leader withdrew his hand.

The reason he hadn't thought of this before was because the surge of his mental energy had already subsided.

After the male ruler touched his forehead, he did not move and fell asleep immediately.

That's why he thought it was just because the male ruler preferred that action.

"My lord," he hesitated for a moment, but still chose to speak, "I just entered a black space..."

That is my spiritual sea.

The spiritual sea?

The term was unfamiliar, yet somewhat familiar.

He thought about it carefully and finally remembered where he had seen it before.

That was the time he entered the palace, and in the palace library, he saw records about that 3S male prince.

It was there that he learned the term "spiritual sea".

Legend has it that the 3S male once said that those with a mental strength of 3S or higher will generate a mental sea.

Each insect's spiritual sea is different, and when one is within the spiritual sea, the master insect of that spiritual sea is the ruler of this world.

Legend has it that once one's mental strength reaches 3S or above and one acquires a mental sea, their mental strength will undergo a qualitative leap and will also have other uses.

He suddenly remembered that other insects had mentioned to him on the terminal those insects that came from the Third Prince's private insect manor.

Anyone who gets close to Jian Chi will have their mental energy destroyed and die instantly.

Therefore, that is very likely one of the uses of mental strength above 3S.

In a split second, Elvis looked at Jian Chi with gratitude on his face.

"Thank you, my lord."

Although he didn't sense much change and didn't know the purpose of the male ruler's actions, he knew that the male ruler was probably helping him.

Because he clearly felt that both his mind and body were very relaxed.

Jian Chi gave a lazy "hmm" and then yawned.

He wasn't sure if it was because Honey's yawn earlier had caught his attention, or because he'd used too much mental energy, but he was feeling a bit sleepy now.

"I'm going to sleep for a while."

After saying that, he got up, went to the bedside, and fell asleep immediately.

It takes at least half a month to travel from the capital star to Blue Star.

It wouldn't have taken this long before.

However, the shortest route passes through the Alpha system, where the Eight Armies are engaged in fierce battle with ferocious beasts, and have closed the air routes, prohibiting starships other than warships from passing through.

Therefore, they had no choice but to take a detour.

In fact, given Jian Chi and Hani's status, if they wanted to, no insect would dare to stop them.

But there's fighting going on over there, so it's very dangerous.

For safety's sake, it's better to take a detour.

The StarNet only covers twelve major star systems; the star system containing Blue Star is not included.

Therefore, Jian Chi took advantage of his time on his way to Blue Star to handle some matters.

During the two weeks of flight, something happened in the Purple Rose Galaxy where the three armies were located.

It was Elvis who told him.

That day, Elvis said with a delighted expression, "My lord, most of the ferocious beasts in the Purple Rose Galaxy have been wiped out!"

Jian Chi was surprised.

Because he remembered that in the original story, the three armies were already struggling to deal with the ferocious beasts at this point.

Even if Leorio and those S-class female soldiers went to the three armed forces, it wouldn't change the situation.

"What's the reason?"

"Speaking of which, we have to thank you, Lord Xiong. Do you remember those few moves you had me... had me perform in the mecha's manual control mode?"

"Um."

"That period sparked a craze for manually operated mechs, with female soldiers from our three armed forces being the most enthusiastic."

Upon hearing this, Jian Chi roughly understood the reason.

However, he still listened to Elvis continue.

"Among our three services, there is also a female soldier who is very skilled at operating mechs. She had a very good foundation in the military."

After that, I taught him more basic code and made him copy that code ten thousand times by hand…”

At this point, Iveston paused, his cheeks slightly flushed, and with an embarrassed expression, he whispered:

"That female soldier's name is... Kafi, so I made her copy the code ten thousand times by hand..."

As he finished speaking, his voice grew softer and softer.

Jian Chi was stunned, then laughed again.

What a coincidence, there really is someone named Kafi.

Seeing Elvis's downcast eyes and ashamed expression, Jian Chi said gently, "Elvis, are you feeling guilty?"

Elvis pursed his lips.

"A little, but I don't regret it."

And he was right; if you copy it ten thousand times, you can remember even the most complex code.

"There's no need to feel guilty. If anyone should feel guilty, it should be me. I was the one who mentioned the name Kafi first."

Although he wouldn't feel guilty at all.

Elvis was taken aback when he heard this.

He has many things he feels guilty about since he was a child.

It failed to meet the hopes of the male and female fathers, the expectations of the empire, and the expectations of the three armies.

These feelings of guilt are a heavy burden on his back, a shackle he willingly put on himself.

He felt very little guilt towards Kafi, which was insignificant compared to the guilt that felt like shackles.

But no insect ever told him not to feel guilty, nor did any insect say that he was the one who should feel guilty.

But now, the powerful ruler has spoken.

He felt that he had discarded some of the invisible shackles that he had willingly put on himself and that did not belong to him.

A lump formed in his throat, and Elvis said in a hoarse voice, "I understand, my lord."

He slowly exhaled and continued speaking.

"Kafie was very obedient. Even after going to the Purple Rose Galaxy, he did not slack off and made time every day to copy those codes."

These were not said by Kafi herself, but by other female soldiers who witnessed them.

The female soldiers were puzzled when they saw him copying code.

When there's nothing to do in the military, you can just copy things down and focus on operating the mechs. Why are you still writing on the battlefield? Isn't that a waste of time and energy?

But Kafi ignored him and continued to squeeze out time every day to copy the text.

One day, Kafi's team received a request for help from other nearby teams and rushed over.

What they saw was a group of clumsy mechs, whose fighting postures against the ferocious beasts were comical and laughable.

Their team assumed that the female soldiers had exhausted too much mental energy and were no longer able to use the mechs, but the ferocious beasts were relentlessly pursuing them, leaving them no choice but to manually operate the mechs.

So he rushed straight over without even seeing the other team's warning.

By the time the warning was received, it was too late.

Mental energy was being consumed at an alarming rate; within just a few minutes, it was completely depleted!

However, the ferocious beasts had not yet been dealt with.

Just when they were in despair, only C's mental energy was exhausted before any of the insects, yet he still operated the mecha with ease.

They helped them withstand the attack of the ferocious beast and waited for rescue.
