Puppeteer [Interstellar]

Humans have very limited understanding of the Zerg Queen. After all, it is the core of the bugs, and it is an existence that cannot be easily explored by the enemy. The reason why humans were able to steal the successor of the Zerg Queen this time is really a fluke.

The rule of queen replacement is very strange. When the new queen is born, in less than half a year, the old queen will quickly dry up and die. Quick, it's as if the life force has been sucked away by the new queen.

However, upon closer examination, these remarks are just human speculation.

After all, no human being can witness the depletion of a generation of insect queens and the birth of a new queen. Scientists can only catch those ordinary insect races, study their genetic habits from them, and infer everything about the insect queen.

So far, Lyle and Clarence are not very clear about the relationship between Heidi and the queen.

The eldest queen impatiently led the whole family up and down to look for Heidi, but Heidi didn't want to see this so-called "mother" at all, and even had obvious resistance to the approach of the eldest queen.

Maybe Heidi was indeed affected by human genes, or by Lyle's spiritual power contract, but Lyle felt... Instinct is extremely difficult to overcome, as long as Heidi is still a Zerg, she will not It should be so against the bug queen.

Moreover, what Heidi said just now, "She wants to control me, she attacks my brain..." Does it mean that the Queen wants to control Heidi mentally?

Lyle couldn't figure it out, and simply didn't bother to think about it. He tried his best to comfort Heidi and let her be quiet. Facing Heidi's appeal, Lyle promised softly: "I will do my best, Heidi."

Afterwards, Lyle held Heidi in his arms and turned to glance at Scar beside him.

Scar's eyes fell on Lyle all the time, and he kept looking at Lyle intently. Seeing that Lyle finally set his eyes on himself, he couldn't help but smile, and then right in front of Lyle, he Zerg melted.

Bones, claws, wings, and proliferating tissues twisted and broke through his skin, covering Scar's whole body, and finally completely covered by scales, making Scar completely transformed into a Zerg that was smaller in size but the same as the Zerg outside. Grim monster.

Lacking most of Lyle's spiritual support, Scar's mental pressure caused by the complete Zergization was borne by himself. This feeling seemed to make him uncomfortable at first, and he flicked his wings frantically, and then he approached the Lyle, licked him with his wet tongue.

Lyle, who was licked with saliva all over his face, didn't mind, and threw himself into Scar's arms with a smile, and Scar hugged his waist with his paws.

Then Lyle took out the hub-style space suit that he had already prepared, put it on his clothes, and pressed the button, this space suit will automatically open the energy network that can wrap Lyle's whole body, providing oxygen and at the same time It can also isolate the heavy pressure of the vacuum environment.

Lightweight and convenient to carry around, it is a very great invention of human beings in interstellar voyages.

Scar hugged Lyle, and Lyle hugged Heidi. The two paused for a while, then Scar opened the door of the mecha, and flew out from inside the mecha with Lyle in his arms.

The queen's personal guards were all around the mecha. Before, they simply surrounded Scar's mecha and didn't make any attacks. Seeing that Scar came out of the mecha with someone, they didn't either. The intention to attack was still to surround Scar and the others.

Although there was no attack, seeing the grinning appearance of these personal guard Zerg, it was obvious that they held strong hostility towards Scar.

At this time, the Queen behind the Zerg Zerg guards slowly flew over, and the bodyguards gave way one after another, allowing Ska and the others to face the Zerg Queen face to face.

Looking at this ugly big bug up close, Lyle was actually a little bit shocked, although he never showed it on his face.

His fear was captured by Scar, who rolled up his body slightly and hugged Lyle even tighter. He was stiff all over, but he was ready to strike at any time.

"You hold my child, human being." A strange voice suddenly sounded in Lyle's mind. This voice was very strange, neither male nor female, it was an indescribable androgynous tone .

Although the sudden sound made Lyle startled a little, but Lyle calmed down in an instant, and he knew that the Queen had a strong mental power, had the same high IQ as Heidi, and was able to communicate with others. comminicate.

Perhaps the Great Queen had never bothered to communicate with humans before, but now that Lyall was holding her child, she had to make a certain degree of compromise.

"Give me back my children, and I will let you go." The eldest queen obviously didn't know how to negotiate with others, so she made a very straightforward request, but she also offered some benefits, but she didn't know if the benefits would be It was fulfilled faithfully.

"Of course I will return your child to you, Your Majesty the Queen." Lyle couldn't help showing a rare aristocratic accent, which he learned from Al.

"But you must promise me that you will lead your legion out of the human realm and never return."

The big queen twisted her huge body slightly, and stared at Lyle without blinking: "Never come back? Impossible!"

"So you don't want your child either?" Lyle took out the incubator box containing Heidi from his arms, and Heidi in the box curled up into a ball, looking pitiful.

The big queen seemed a little anxious, she let out a low roar, and with her roar, the Zerg guards around her also became anxious, they approached Lyle and Scar further, oppressing Scar and Lyle activity space.

This also made Scar feel uneasy, and pressed his paws on Lyle's head, holding Lyle even tighter. Scar bared his fangs and let out a low growl, flicking his tail and flapping his wings, from the queen to those Personal guard, he observed them one by one.

"Calm down, Your Majesty the Queen." Lyle used a little mental power to increase his sense of existence, "I just want to fight for some conditions for the survival of our humans. Even if you don't come to invade our humans, you Zerg will not lack other food , why both of us have to fight for both sides?"

"Despicable humans, you stole my child, and you still want me to make concessions for it?" The big queen was very angry, she opened her fangs at Lyle, "You have to pay the price!"

"Does this mean that negotiations have broken down?" Lyle said, holding Heidi's incubator tightly in his hands, "So you don't mind if I kill your child now, right?"

Lyle's threat made the big queen calm down a little bit, she didn't speak, and seemed to be considering what Lyle said.

Maybe Heidi is still more important, the Queen said: "Okay, I agree to your request, return my child to me."

"Your Majesty, you have to make real achievements." Lyell said, "Order the swarm to stop attacking and retreat now, and I will return the child to you."

The big queen was also happy, she didn't have any inkling with Lyle, she let out a shriek, and the black swarms of insects fluttered their wings, stopped attacking Darryl's spaceship, and began to retreat as a whole.

The ordinary bugs backed away, but the Queen and her personal guards did not move, they still surrounded Lyle and Scar.

Because the big queen and Lyle are not moving, and the swarm is no longer surrounding the big queen, the worm queen is exposed to the starry sky without worm shadows for the first time in history, even though she is still surrounded by a group of elite zerg guards Protection, but the defense did become weaker.

After watching the swarm recede as he wished, Lyle was excited, his heart beating violently in his chest.

Seeing that the insect swarm was almost far away, the insect queen said: "I have done as you said, should I return the child?"

Lyle glanced at the shadow of the swarm going away, and replied: "This distance is not enough, and it will only take a few minutes for you to come back at full speed, so I must make sure nothing goes wrong."

The Queen of Worms was obviously impatient: "I keep my promise, and I will do what I say, human beings, don't challenge my bottom line again and again."

Lyle said: "But what if I return the child to you and you want to kill me?"

"I won't kill you, I promise." The insect queen was unexpectedly honest, and her tone was so firm that even Lyle couldn't see anything unusual.

"Okay." Lyle nodded, "Then please ask Her Majesty the Queen to pick it up in person, and don't let the guards around you do it for you, is that okay?"

After all, Lyle raised the incubator in his hand and showed Heidi inside the box. Heidi seemed to be very scared, curled up in a small ball in the box, turned her back to the queen and pointed her tail at her.

Seeing that the child was close at hand, the eldest queen really wanted to move herself, but just after she moved a short distance, a Zerg guard suddenly came over to stop her.

This change made Lyle's heart tremble, but he held back his panic, maintained his previous posture, and waited for the big queen to approach.

The eldest queen seemed to have exchanged something with the guard in a low voice, but after a few words, the guard withdrew. The eldest queen continued to approach, and came to Lyle, using her sharp claws to reach for the cultivation in Lyle's hand. box.

Finally, Heidi in the box couldn't bear it any longer. She suddenly screamed loudly again, the same high-decibel scream that was familiar. The scream frightened for a moment.

Just for a short while, Scar, who was holding Lyle, moved swiftly.

Ska lifted Lyle with one hand and hugged it once, vibrating his wings and flew to the big queen quickly, with the other paw facing the big queen's chest in a black tiger's heart-throwing gesture.

The big queen is huge, it is not easy to kill her, and the self-healing ability of the Zerg is extremely strong, so this assassination is a severe challenge for Scar.
