Zerg: After being rescued by the Major General, I pledged myself to him.

This is what the doctor said when I was hospitalized before.

"You should be close to secondary differentiation, and your body is starting to produce pheromones."

"Yeah?"

But he's a human being!

Did his body undergo some kind of mutation after he transmigrated, and he began to possess the genes of the Zerg?

Yan Mo was sent back to the villa by Lan Ze with some doubt.

After sending him back, Lan Ze rushed back to the military headquarters to deal with the female insect's mental disorder.

Yan Mo spent a long time alone at home sniffing around, but he couldn't smell the pheromones that Lan Ze had mentioned.

He simply stopped paying attention, opened the StarNet, and continued to search for information about Star 1347 and the interstellar rift.

Regardless, he still wanted to go check out star 1347.

That evening, Yan Mo prepared dinner, but Lan Ze did not return.

Xiao Yuan scurried around to Yan Mo's side and said softly, "Please, sir, have your meal first!"

"Isn't Major General Lanze coming back?"

"...The Major General said he will come back to pick you up tomorrow morning."

"..."

Xiao Yuan spoke cautiously, but Yan Mo did not reply. He tried to minimize his presence, as the male insect seemed to be in a bad mood.

Please don't take your anger out on him!

He's just a weak and innocent AI butler!

Yan Mo wasn't angry. He paused for a moment, then finished his meal alone.

Lanze must be heartbroken, right?

Yan Mo felt a little guilty when he recalled his actions during the day.

Regardless, Lanze was his savior and had never harmed him. On the contrary, Lanze had always been protecting him, so he shouldn't have done such a hurtful thing.

Although he suddenly realized that the Zerg were not human after all, and this was a conditioned reflex of self-defense, Lanze did not know that he might think that he was the same as the male Zerg, fearing and loathing the female Zerg.

Yan Mo felt he should formally apologize to Lan Ze.

"Xiaoyuan, do you know what your major general likes?"

Xiao Yuan was taking a walk outside the villa with Yan Mo when she heard the male insect's sudden question. The eyes on the screen blinked: "The Major General likes... likes collecting specimens of interstellar beasts!"

"what?"

Xiao Yuan thought for a moment and led Yan Mo to the door of a room on the third floor of the villa.

Yan Mo looked at the door curiously.

He and Lanze both lived in rooms on the second floor and rarely went up to the third floor; he had never been inside this room before.

Xiaoyuan opened the door and simultaneously turned on the lights.

Yan Mo looked up and was immediately stunned.

The room was very large, filled with tall display cases displaying dozens of bizarre and grotesque animal specimens with blue faces and fangs.

The specimen-making technology in interstellar space is very advanced. Yan Mo looked at the dozen or so interstellar beasts in front of him, each one lifelike, as if they could leap out of the display case and pounce on him at any moment.

Yan Mo stepped out the door, his face pale, and told Xiao Yuan to quickly lock the door.

"Your major general likes this?"

"Yes, every time the Major General eliminates a high-level interstellar beast, he makes it into a specimen and brings it back. The ones here were collected by the Major General after he came to Epha Star. There is a larger collection room in his home on the capital star. There is an S-class alien beast there that once invaded more than a dozen border inhabited stars. The Major General went deep into the alien beast's nest alone and eliminated the alien beast. It was because of that battle that he became the youngest Major General in interstellar space."

Yanmo vaguely remembered the interstellar beast that Xiaoyuan mentioned.

He had seen that photo before when he was searching for Lanze on StarNet.

The female insect had a cold and aloof face, beautiful features, and was covered in blood. Standing next to a huge and ugly interstellar beast, she was like a rose among thorns, dangerous yet alluring.

Yan Mo's lips twitched as he recalled the dozen or so imposing beast specimens he had just seen.

As expected of the female insect known as the "Star of the Army," her preferences are indeed formidable.

But he couldn't possibly please them!

Not to mention that Lan Ze's collection consists of high-level exotic beasts, even if a low-level exotic beast were to appear now, it would be enough to make Yan Mo die.

Never before have I been so acutely aware that in this dangerous interstellar world, I am utterly incompetent!

"Does your major general... have any gentle hobbies?"

"A gentler approach?"

Xiao Yuan blinked.

"Yes, for example, what does he like to eat? What does he like to drink? Or what about that latest aircraft I saw the other day? Would he like it?"

Yan Mo uses the most possible divergent thinking to explore small circles.

"The major general probably prefers combat mechs to aircraft."

Combat mechs? Yan Mo calculated his balance and realized he probably couldn't afford them.

"The largest combat mech development company in the interstellar space belongs to the Lan family. Any new mechs with groundbreaking technologies will be supplied to the Lan family first."

Yan Mo remained expressionless, recalling the countless assets under Lan Ze's name that he had seen; it wasn't surprising that some of them were involved in mecha research.

"Think again, what else?"

"Hmm... the Major General likes desserts, is that alright?"

Yan Mo breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Lan Ze didn't like any exotic beast banquets, and he happened to know how to make a few kinds of desserts.

Time is running out, but fortunately, interstellar logistics are exceptionally advanced.

Yan Mo selected the ingredients on the StarNet and chose express delivery to bake a batch of milky and crispy cookies.

Yan Mo picked up a piece and took a bite. It was sweet but not cloying. Lan Ze should like it, right?

Day two.

Yan Mo got up early, ate breakfast, and then sat in the living room, watching Xiao Yuan busy herself.

Xiao Yuan helped him pack his luggage. She had heard that Star 1347 was very desolate, and Xiao Yuan wished she could pack the Lanze Villa for him.

Fortunately, interstellar space has storage buttons; a small button can hold more than a dozen cubic meters of things.

Yan Mo hung the spatial button on his belt and waited for Lan Ze to set off.

The villa gate opened, and Lan Ze stood in the doorway.

Yan Mo waved to Xiao Yuan, picked up the box on the table, and walked towards Lan Ze.

"Good day, Your Excellency."

"Good morning, let's go!"

Lan Ze nodded. A flying vehicle was already parked at the entrance. He took a few steps forward, opened the door, and watched the male insect go in before following him onto the flying vehicle.

The aircraft has an autopilot function.

Yan Mo and Lan Ze sat inside, looking at each other in silence.

"I made some cookies, do you want some?"

Yan Mo handed the box of cookies to Lan Ze.

Lan Ze was taken aback, took the box, opened the lid, and a sweet and crispy aroma wafted out.

He tasted a piece, and his azure eyes immediately lit up slightly.

Yan Mo smiled and said, "It seems you really like sweets."

Lan Ze blushed slightly; only young insects that haven't grown up like to eat sweets.

It must be that idiot Xiaoyuan who was talking nonsense in front of the male insect!

Yan Mo noticed the female insect's slightly flushed cheeks and paused for a moment. He coughed lightly and seized the opportunity to say, "Since you like her, can you accept my apology?"

Lanze froze, and the cookie he had just picked up fell onto the ground of the aircraft.

He hurriedly tried to pick it up, but Yan Mo stopped him.

"It's dirty now, just get a new one!"

Lan Ze lowered his head: "I have wasted your kindness, please punish me!"

Yan Mo shook his head: "It's just a cookie. If you like it, I'll make you another one next time."

Lanze remained silent. It was just a cookie, but no male insect would ever make a cookie to apologize to a female and please her.

Lord Yanmo is too good; he always makes me want to get closer to him, even if it might lead to utter ruin.

Seeing that Lan Ze remained silent, Yan Mo hesitated for a moment before finally speaking up.

Are you still angry with me?
