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

Yan Mo was taken aback.

He was human, so naturally he didn't believe in any insect gods, but he could be understood as the god of the insect race.

However, he didn't actually believe in the existence of God. Although he had traveled through time, Yan Mo only believed that the interstellar rift was a spacetime tunnel formed by some kind of physical element, which could be explained by science.

There is no such thing as an insect god.

So Yan Mo answered in this way.

Lan Ze smiled, but his laughter was tinged with bitterness and had a deeper meaning.

Lanze lowered his voice and continued, "Before coming to Ephastar, my female father showed me some information."

It contains research materials about underground research institutes before the Great Purge.

The earliest underground research institute searched almost every known substance in the interstellar space in order to develop a drug to purify the mental pollution of female insects, and found that only the pheromones of male insects could purify the pollution.

In order to find a way to solve the problem of mental pollution, they began to secretly capture male insects and conduct pheromone experiments.

However, because male insects are rare, public attention is focused on the trafficking of male insects.

Few Zerg would notice that the number of female Zerg test subjects in the underground research institute is actually no less than that of male Zerg.

Before the Great Purge, the underground research institute conducted genetic studies on male and female Zerg, and discovered that the Zerg had always believed that the spiritual pollution of female Zerg and the decreasing number of male Zerg were caused by the large-scale radiation pollution.

But with deeper research, they discovered that the female insect's mental pollution was a program written into its genes.

The female insects rely on their powerful mental strength to lead their race to survive in the interstellar space. The side effect of this power is mental pollution, and the only antidote to this pollution is the male insects' pheromones.

"It seems that this was set up by the Zerg God. He gave the Zerg the power to survive in space, but also limited that power. He created a chaotic race that seems to be waiting for its own demise."

Yan Mo was speechless. He suddenly felt strange. If this world was truly scientific, why would it have such a distorted worldview as the Zerg?

He suddenly thought of some novels he had read before his transmigration. What if the Zerg worldview was just a fictional setting?

What about himself?

Is he also a fictional character from a novel?

Yan Mo couldn't figure it out. He suddenly understood Lan Ze's confusion, but looking at Lan Ze, he suddenly realized that even if this place was created by some kind of insect god, so what?

At least, he was real, Lanze in front of him was real, and their friends were real. Therefore, this world was real for them.

Yan Mo put aside his own self-perception and understood why Lan Ze had left the Starry Sky Society.

Lanze felt that the female insect's mental strength and the male insect's pheromones made the fundamental conflict between the two insects unsolvable, and he believed that this meant the female and male insects were destined to be trapped in this genetic setting.

All research conducted by the institute will be futile efforts.

Yan Mo thought for a moment and said to Lan Ze, "You should tell Philo. If he knows, he will understand you."

Lanze shook his head: "Philo's father died from a mental breakdown. Breaking his resolve would be too cruel for him."

Yan Mo thought for a moment and said, "Is there really no solution? Since the male insect's pheromones can resolve mental energy pollution, why not continue the research?"

Lan Ze looked at Yan Mo, seemingly afraid of scaring him, but still said, "In the early days, the Zerg high command also conducted pheromone experiments on male Zerg, but without exception, they all ended in failure. Male Zerg were too precious. Later, the underground research institute before the Great Purge caused a large number of male Zerg to disappear and die, which made the male-to-female ratio even worse."

The male insects that were captured for pheromone experiments were initially able to release some pheromones for research, but later, due to fear, their pheromones became disordered, and they eventually died of fright.

Male insects are very vulnerable creatures. If they are in a state of fright and coercion for a long time, their pheromones will become disordered and they will not be able to release them. Female insects not only rely on male insects for mental pollution, but also have an innate desire for and dependence on male insects.

Many female insects also strongly opposed conducting pheromone experiments on male insects. Later, a major purge occurred, and even the few radical female insects hesitated to act. The Alliance and the Male Insect Protection Association ordered a ban on pheromone experiments. Except for a few hidden underground research institutes, pheromone experiments were basically terminated.

Yan Mo was stunned for a moment, realizing that Lan Ze had misunderstood him. Of course, he did not agree with conducting inhumane experiments on male insects. After all, he himself was now a "male insect." What he thought of changing the male-female relationship was not to let the currently weak female insects use force to control the male insects and turn the current male-dominated and female-subordinate relationship into female-dominated and male-subordinate relationship.

"Those underground research institutes are using the wrong methods from the start. Why do they have to kidnap and harm male insects to obtain research samples? They could just have the male insects cooperate with the research. After all, they're studying pheromones, so it wouldn't cause any harm to the males!"

Lan Ze smiled. Lord Yan Mo is really too naive.

Lan Ze was reluctant to shatter his fantasy. How could any male insect be willing to cooperate with the research institute in pheromone research?

Even when their female rulers and servants are tormented by mental pollution, they are stingy with giving even the slightest bit of pheromone. What male insect would be willing to offer up its precious pheromone for experimental research?

Lan Ze said calmly, "No male insect would be willing to participate in the research."

Yan Mo did not agree with Lan Ze's words.

"I'd love to. Philo's research institute hasn't disbanded yet, has it? How many pheromone samples do they need? I can provide some. Besides, you don't seem to have tried looking for other males. I think if you try, you might get some pleasant surprises."

Yan Mo believes that everything has a dark side and a bright side. Although most of the male insects he knows now seem to be stupid and tyrannical, since this creature exists, there will always be some male insects that can see the situation clearly.

The male insects may seem to have a high status now, but if this group continues to be so oblivious, the tragic deaths of male insects before the purge will only happen again and again.

Male insects stained with the blood of female insects will only become targets of revenge from aggressive female insects.

There will always be some clever male insects who realize that if this vicious cycle continues, not only the male insects but the entire insect race will one day perish. Only by changing the current situation can the insect race have a chance to continue.

Lan Ze stared blankly at Yan Mo. He seemed shocked by Yan Mo's words, but also had a feeling that it was true. Lord Yan Mo was different from other male insects.

However, Lan Ze didn't quite believe what Yan Mo said next. He felt that the Zerg would never have a male Zerg like Lord Yan Mo again.

After all, all the male insects he knew from childhood were stupid and violent.

Yan Mo could tell that Lan Ze didn't believe him.

He smiled, not minding it, and said to Lan Ze, "How about we make a bet? Maybe I can find the next male insect willing to cooperate with the pheromone experiment."
