Puppeteer [Interstellar]

After the mental shock, this unidentified Zerg was recruited again. Although after the last lesson, it seemed to be somewhat defensive. Lyle noticed that it built a tall spiritual defense tower, but it still failed to resist Lyle. This powerful spiritual force.

It was "pinned" in place again and moved slowly. Lyle waited for the opportunity to raise his dagger and poke at its vitals.And at the same time, Ska also reacted, and cooperated with Lyle to attack back and forth, encircling and suppressing this poor Zerg.

Their speed is not fast, Lyle's movement of raising the knife can be said to be slow to the naked eye, Scar also greatly reduced the speed in order to cooperate with Lyle.

But the victory lies in his firm will. Lyle's hand holding the knife will not tremble, and Scar's sharp claws will never shake.

The balance of victory has tilted towards Lyle and the others, and what weighs on the chip board is a heavy heart.

Lyle aimed at the eyes of the Zerg, and the blade went straight to the forehead of the Zerg, while Scar aimed at the heart socket on the back of the Zerg, tearing apart from the back to the heart.

They both stabbed the poor Zerg through at the same time, and when Lyle retracted the blade, Ska clawed upwards, splitting the Zerg's upper body in two.

Can't die anymore.

After beheading the zerg, Scar immediately lifted the worm's body, pounced on Lyle, hugged Lyle without saying a word, turned around and sprinted towards Daryl's spaceship.

Time is running out, Lyle's space suit is really unable to hold this time, Scar must send Lyle to a safe environment for human survival as soon as possible.

Daryl's spaceship was far away from them, but under Scar's full speed sprint, he would easily surpass this distance.

What's more, after Daryl couldn't contact Lyle before, he had sent a rescue team to start searching for Lyle's location. They calculated from multiple angles based on the last location of Lyle's communicator, as well as the impact force and direction of the antimatter bomb explosion. , roughly calculated the possible position of Lyle, and explored all the way towards this position.

They found the right direction perfectly, and the rescue team soon met Ska who was holding Lyle head-on. After scanning Lyle's biological characteristics, the small rescue spaceships circled around to keep up with Ska, and opened the hatch to let Ska go in.

The rescue was so timely. The moment Scar carried Lyle into the door, Lyle's space suit completely failed and the energy shield collapsed. Fortunately, the oxygen and gravity levels in the rescue ship were up to standard, and Lyle did not feel uncomfortable.

Relieved, Lyle and Scar were temporarily accommodated by the ambulance crew on the rescue ship.

Not long after, the rescue ship carried Scar and Lyle back to Daryl's spaceship, and Daryl came back after hearing that the rescue team had found someone.

It wasn't until he saw Lyle with his own eyes that Daliel really let go of the stone in his heart. He stepped forward and pressed Lyle's shoulder hard, as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't speak until Lyle took the lead. Saying: "I'm doing fine, sir."

Daryl laughed, let out a long sigh of relief, and shook his head.

"How's it going?" Lyle asked again.

"The queen is definitely dead." Daryl said, "We found her wreckage, which was broken into about 3 pieces. It is absolutely impossible for her to live again...so..."

"...We won." Darryl suppressed his excitement to calmly say this, but after he finished speaking, he couldn't help but smile brightly, "We defeated the Zerg! The first time in history Second-rate!"

"Isn't that counted by Rein?" Lyle couldn't help laughing.

"That time, the Zerg were only temporarily retreating, and our side suffered heavy losses. Moreover, the damage that Rain caused to the queen was not enough at all. If the queen herself wanted to retreat, the human race would have perished by then!"

Daryl said solemnly: "Therefore, this is the only time that human beings have truly won. At least for me."

"Lyle, you did a great job." Darryl kept talking, and couldn't help rubbing Lyle's head, "This battle will be written into history, and you will be remembered by countless generations hero."

Lyle's little head actually didn't think about what would happen in the future, and he didn't think he was a hero, he just did everything he could do at this stage.

"So, no Zerg will be able to harass us in the future." Lyle said happily, and then he reacted and looked at his arms, "No, actually there are still."

Heidi nestled in the incubator, looking listless.

Seeing Heidi's expression was wrong, Lyle touched her through the box: "Heidi? What's wrong with you?"

Before Heidi answered, Clarence over there suddenly rushed over and said as he rushed, "I heard that Lyle is back... Oh! Lyle!"

When Clarence saw Lyle, he jumped up excitedly. An old man who was not young jumped up to Lyle like a child, and hugged him tightly.

Lyle patted the excited Clarence on the back and said, "I'm fine, Clarence."

"Oh my god! You're fine!" Clarence was so excited that his eye sockets were wet. While wiping his eyes, he looked at Scar and cried with joy, "Ska is fine, that's great!"

Scar didn't speak. At this time, Scar had recovered his human form, but he still kept the puppet's silence. There was no expression on his face, but when he saw Clarence, there was still some warmth in his eyes.

"We're all fine, but let's take a look at Heidi!" Lyle lifted the incubator to Clarence. "She looks terrible, maybe she used up too much energy?"

"Come with me, I'll take her to check." Clarence then greeted Daryl, and took Lyle and Scar to the breeding room to check on Heidi.

After entering the cultivation room, Clarence moved Heidi out of the box and put it in a container filled with nutrient solution.Lyle is still talking to Heidi, trying to determine her mental state.

"Heidi, are you okay?"

"...I seem to have become weak, Lyle." Heidi sank into the container, curled up like in a mother's womb, and whispered back to Lyle, "Since I can't feel the spirit of the big queen, I feel Something is passing in my body."

Lyle repeated Heidi's words to Clarence, and Clarence said: "I don't know much about the replacement system of the Zerg queen. Maybe the rise of the new queen requires the old queen to sacrifice part of her strength and life?"

Lyle said: "So, Heidi told me before, she said that the reason why the big queen is eager to lead the swarm to find Heidi is not to save Heidi, but to kill her."

"You mean...the purpose of the old queen looking for Heidi is to absorb her power and live forever?" Clarence guessed, "According to what you said, it can be done in reverse. Heidi, the new queen In order to survive, I have to absorb the power of the old queen."

Lyle frowned: "But the old queen has been bombarded to death by us... If this is the case, what should Heidi do?"

Clarence pondered for a moment, and said: "Don't worry, there will always be a solution. If our conjecture is correct, then to put it bluntly, Heidi just needs the strength for her to grow. The old queen is dead and cannot give it. This kind of strength, we can try to find other alternatives."

Lyle probably understood what he meant: "So that's it, a substitute with huge power..."

However, Lyle and Clarence thought about it for a long time, but they didn't come up with any suitable substitutes. During this period, Clarence proposed: "Zergs eat everything, not only all kinds of creatures, they even eat stars. Asteroids, asteroids or broken stars are all on their diet, but these planets are just a piece of rock, with no energy value... Maybe the metal minerals in it can give the Zerg their teeth?"

Clarence thought about it: "I don't know if we can use stars as a substitute for power...the energy of stars is quite huge."

"Impossible." Lyle vetoed Clarence's proposal, "Any star is a fireball that continues to explode. No matter how powerful the Zerg is, it is impossible to eat this kind of thing directly. What's more, Heidi is only so big. Even an ultra-miniature star with a diameter of several meters is impossible for her to swallow."

"But I can't think of other things with huge energy." Clarence frowned, very melancholy, "My main job is to study biology, I don't know much about this, maybe we should find a physicist Ask."

"How about it." Lyle said, "Just now I heard from Daryl that they had blasted the Queen to death, into an unknown number of pieces, I will try to ask Daryl to collect the Queen's body fragments, Maybe these pieces of meat are also of value to Heidi?"

Upon hearing this, Clarence agreed very much, and the two hit it off immediately and began to assign tasks.

So, Lyle went back to Daryl to collect the Queen's fragments, and Clarence wanted to take good care of Heidi and forcefully renew her life with nutrient solution.

Before Lyle left, Heidi uttered a voice to keep Lyle back, and she yelled weakly, "Lyle!"

"I'm here," Lyle reassured her. "Don't be afraid, my little Alice."

Heidi said in a daze, "Are you leaving? Do you want to break the spiritual contract with me?"

Releasing the spiritual contract was the agreement Lyle made with Heidi before assassinating the queen, but Lyle shook his head this time and said: "I'm afraid I have to break the contract, you are too weak now, without my spiritual support, you will become Weaker, I have to take care of you, Heidi."

Heidi seemed quite happy to hear this, and slowly shook her little tail: "You won't leave me? That's great!"

"By the way, Heidi, I want to ask you something." Lyle strengthened his mental power and gave Heidi some stimulation, so that she could wake up a little bit.

"My little Alice, you are the most powerful queen of newborn bugs, so I believe you must have inherited some of the memories of the Zerg ancestors. Among the memories you can recall, what is your Zerg's favorite food? "

"Eat?" Heidi asked innocently.

"Yes, what do you like to eat?" Lyle asked patiently.

Heidi turned over in the container full of nutrient solution, her tail curled up like a seahorse, she seemed to be very distressed about this problem; "I can eat anything, Lyle, I'm not picky eaters."

Lyle couldn't laugh or cry when he heard this: "Now you have to be picky eaters, tell me something about your favorite food."

"Hmm..." Heidi thought for a long time, "I have eaten very little, Lyle, I have been staying in my mother's womb before, and I was on your spaceship after I came out... this soaked my nutrition The liquid is quite delicious, but I can’t get enough.”

"Ah, but, I know what my little brothers like to eat!" Heidi thought of it, and the tip of her curled tail became straight again, and she said happily: "Those Zerg who follow me like to eat your food very much!" spaceship!"

Lyle was stunned after hearing this, and asked again: "Wait, Heidi, what are you talking about? What do they like to eat?"

"Spaceship!" Heidi said happily again, "You big, metal spaceship! It's delicious! My little brothers all say it's delicious!"
