Zerg: Why is the Overlord like that?

[System, have I completed the scenario?]

【…】

Very good, Jian Chi is sure he has finished.

To be honest, I knew it was done without even asking him.

Last time we tested the method and found it worked, so this time, we can just use the same method.

That is, to let all the female soldiers see that Elvis did indeed kneel down in front of him.

After all, for female soldiers, when the mecha is bound to the body, the mecha is essentially the insect itself.

Upon leaving the mech cabin, Jian Chi discovered that the female soldiers around him had already dispersed.

However, they did not go far.

Clearly, even though an hour had passed, the incredibly smooth and fluid movements that Ivis performed in the mech's manual mode had rekindled their long-dormant enthusiasm for manual mode.

So they all pulled out their mechs and were excitedly trying to recreate the scene from before.

Unfortunately, their movements were very stiff, and the mecha would occasionally pause and jam.

Some couldn't even maintain their balance and fell to the ground, the sound of mechs crashing echoing everywhere.

Elvis followed behind, put away the Sky Guardian, and after seeing the scene, he thought for a moment but did not stop it.

It's a good thing that it can increase these subordinates' interest in the manual mode of the mechs.

He glanced down at Jian Chi, his cheeks slightly flushed.

"My lord, I'll go make you lunch. Would you please go back to your room and wait for a while?"

Jian Chi hummed in agreement.

Back in the small room, I found a friend request that had just been sent.

I don't know him, but there's a note: "Lord Jian Chi, there's been progress on the matter you discussed with the Marshal."

Jian Chi accepted the friend request.

A while later, a message came from the other end.

"Lord Jian Chi, is now a convenient time for a video call?"

Upon seeing this message, Jian Chi immediately dialed the number.

The scene features a young and handsome female soldier with short, dark blue hair and extremely dark, deep-set eyes that exude a cold aura.

The female soldier's expression was cold and solemn, and the aura she exuded could be felt even through the screen.

"Good afternoon, Jianchi Pavilion. I am General Fell."

General Fell, the commander of the First Army, spoke in a manner as cold and hard as the insect he gave off.

Jian Chi showed no dissatisfaction with his attitude, and replied with a gentle smile:

"Good afternoon, Fair. You mentioned in your application that the investigation results are in?"

Fell nodded: "Yes, I was there at the time, so the Marshal asked me to investigate. That female soldier's name is Yug, and she has A-level mental strength..."

"Rank A?" Jian Chi frowned. "Isn't he Rank S?"

"He was only a Grade A. Before he came here, he was injected with a banned drug that could enhance his mental strength, which is why he transformed into an insect so quickly."

It turns out they were injected with banned drugs to enhance their mental abilities.

Jian Chi seemed to be deep in thought, then came back to his senses.

"Go on."

"My investigation revealed that Yug had met one of Reid's female slaves before coming to Batani Square..."

What Fell said next surprised Jian Chi both.

Unsurprisingly, it was Reed who was behind this.

Surprisingly, Yug was unaware of what was happening online before he arrived.

Reed's female slaves only told him that after the injection, he should go to Batani Square, where he would see the female insects of his army and act with them.

Reed hadn't handled the matter perfectly, so Fair found out as soon as he investigated.

Anyway, for Reed, when Jian Chi dies, and he is a noble male insect, even if those insects find out, at most they will just drag his female slaves to take the blame.

At this point, Felton paused, then looked at Jian Chi.

He had expected Jian Chi to be angry, or to ask him how to deal with Reed, but he hadn't anticipated anything like it—

Why did Yug agree to Reed's request?

Upon hearing this, Phil was taken aback.

He then replied, "Reed has captured Yug's two younger brothers and is threatening him. Both of his brothers are sub-females, the eldest of whom is less than ten years old."

Reed promised that if he did as he was told, he would let his two younger brothers go home after he finished.

Jian Chi responded with an "oh".

No wonder.

"So how do you plan to handle this?"

There was a moment of silence on Phil's end.

"We captured the female slave who gave Yug the illegal drugs, as well as Yug's two brothers."

And then that was it.

Jian Chi raised an eyebrow.

Very good, he guessed correctly.

After all, that's how the world is. He enjoyed the rights of being a male insect, and naturally, other male insects can enjoy them too.

Reed was a B-grade male insect like him, and also a nobleman who had dealings with the Third Prince. By all accounts, he was much stronger than a B-grade male insect with no background whatsoever.

If his mate hadn't been Elvis, and if he hadn't displayed such a special presence in Batani Square, this matter would probably have simply faded away.

It's alright. Although he can settle his scores on the spot, there's a saying that goes, "A gentleman takes revenge even after ten years."

Moreover, he doesn't have to wait ten years; he only needs to wait a month and a few days at most.

However, he still wants to collect interest.

"I understand. Is there anything else, General Fell?"

Fell was taken aback; Jian Chi's reaction was once again beyond his expectations.

"there is none left."

As soon as he finished speaking, the black-haired, black-eyed male insect disappeared from the screen. Phil sat on the sofa, still somewhat bewildered.

He was prepared for Jian Chi to make a scene if he heard that Reed wasn't dealt with, but he didn't.

He suddenly remembered a sentence on the StarNet: Lord Jian Chi is different from other lords.

Looking back now, it seems that things are indeed different.

Just then, Jian Chi sent another message. I opened it and saw:

"Although I won't pursue the matter further, I can't skimp on compensation for emotional distress."

"I was so terribly frightened that day, and besides, I've already entered the early stages of my second evolution; I can't handle too much emotional fluctuation. Admiral Phil, what do you think?"

Feier could almost picture Jian Chi's gentle, smiling face as he said those words.

After a moment of silence, he replied, "Of course, Your Excellency Jian Chi, please rest assured."

After getting the answer he wanted, Jian Chi felt drowsy again.

I simply lay down on the bed, closed my eyes, and started searching for scenes in the original story where Reed appeared.

In the original storyline, the original owner agreed to Reed's request, so they didn't fall out and maintained a relatively friendly relationship.

Judging by the timeline, Reed's next appearance seems to be six days later at the birthday banquet of a male A-rank nobleman. Upon seeing Carol, he recklessly went up to harass her.

In the original storyline, Reed was considered a minor cannon fodder character.

The banquet invitation for the Class A male was naturally sent out a month in advance.

Hmm, Jian Chi didn't receive it.

But it's okay.

Jianchi opened Hani's dialog box.

"Honey, did you receive a birthday party invitation in six days?"

Hani replied quickly.

"Yeah, what's up, Brother Chi? Do you want to go?"

"Um."

"Okay, I'll take Brother Chi that day!"

Jian Chi felt relieved.

The saying "A gentleman takes revenge even after ten years" is a lie, as is "Take revenge after a month"; taking revenge after five days is what one truly desires.

It doesn't matter if the insect can't help; he will take care of it himself.

As drowsiness grew stronger, Jian Chi yawned and closed his eyes.

After an unknown amount of time, there was a knock on the door.

"My lord, the meal is ready."

Jian Chi wasn't a deep sleeper, so he woke up as soon as there was a knock on the door.

I opened the door and saw a coffee table not far away.

The coffee table was a bit low, so Elvis bent his knees and knelt on the ground to set out the bowls and chopsticks.

He was wearing a platinum military uniform, his eyes were downcast, and he looked serious. His lips, which were usually rather pale, were now extremely red.

Compared to the slightly aloof expression on his face, the whiskers on his head swayed from side to side, much more lively.

Such a face, with slightly reddened eyes revealing a broken and repressed expression, would be extremely beautiful.

[Trigger scenario: After Elvis rejects you, you angrily demand that he return tonight and give him something even more intense than usual.]
