They all call me the Outer God

"Get out! Get out!"

Although Serge's legs were weak, he still picked up a stone on the ground and threw it at them. The stone hit his playmate's head, causing his wound to bleed more severely. Serge didn't want to look at him at all. Instead, he stood up and ran forward.

He didn't know where he was going. He just vaguely remembered that he ran for a long time that day, and the people without facial features didn't catch up. When he came to his senses, he was already standing in the desert. The wind swept the yellow sand on his face. Serge just felt very painful. It hurt so much that he couldn't help crying. This cry naturally attracted some "natives" in the desert.

He saw a huge, weird-looking beetle like a pigeon crawling towards him from the direction of the triangular pharaoh's tomb in the distance. There were many white worms attached to the abdomen of this beetle. Judging from this, this worm should be female.

It held a fruit in its mouthparts and swung its antennae in front of Sherge. Normally, a normal person would be scared to see such a huge insect, but Sherge had completely lost the ability and means to escape.

Compared to those faceless people, even the beetle looked so cute.

[How could human larvae appear in the desert? Did you get separated from your family? ]

The beetle turned its antennae for a moment and suddenly made a sound to ask him.

It would have been better if it didn't mention these. As soon as it mentioned these, Sherge's tears dripped down like money: "Dead... They are all dead. A group of people without facial features followed me. It's terrible!"

"I have no home, nothing."

The beetle was probably a mother for the first time. She looked at Sherge and the group of worms in her abdomen with maternal instinct, and she couldn't help feeling pity.

[If you don't mind, I can take care of you. Our tribe has a lot of food. As long as you have the same beliefs as us, I think my tribe will not object.]

The beetle asked Sherge gently.

[My name is Neferti. Maybe I can adopt you and become your mother... Are you willing to live with us from now on? ]

Serge looked desperate. He had nowhere to go now. Living with the beetles might be the best choice... It couldn't be worse than facing the faceless man.

So that day, he acquiesced to Neferti's acceptance. It was also on that day that he learned that there was a group of "Shaggai insects" active in the pyramid.

This race was extremely yearning for their own beliefs. They believed that the Lord they followed would wake up one day, although fundamentally, the race that believed in that one would not have a good end in the end.

[Except for our Lord, the rest of the gods are false gods or inferior gods. Any creature will instinctively follow the strong. Since you want to follow the gods, why not directly choose the highest one? ]

The Shaggai insects built a huge door in the pyramid-shaped temple. They sincerely hoped to contact the Lord of All Things through this door, and even petitioned His incarnation to come to the world.

Neferti told Sherge that even they could only believe in the incarnation of that person, and not directly believe in his true body, but they could not escape the coming of disaster.

A long time ago, the Shaggai Zerg lived on a planet called Shaggai in the vast universe.

But that planet was soon destroyed by another tyrannical star, forcing them to come to the current place.

[Our experiences may be the same. From experience, I completely understand your feelings, child]

Neferti lamented, and then suddenly grabbed a white worm from its abdomen to show Sherge. This was the fattest of all the worms. Because it was the most gluttonous, it was currently round and its body surface was still wriggling.

[Don't be so sad. Your coming here means that you have become one of our tribesmen, and I will also do my best to fulfill my responsibilities as a mother]

[Look, among all the offspring I gave birth to, I like this one the most, and I even gave it a name]

"What's its name?" Sherge couldn't help asking.

[It's called Shane, and from now on, it's your brother]

[The Shaggai worm has another nickname, Shane, named after our tribe. I hope it can do great things in the future, at least to the level of a great elder]

[As for other offspring... the growth conditions of Shaggai larvae are very harsh, and their physical condition is not optimistic. I don't know if they can survive to adulthood]

Survival of the fittest, many creatures will abandon weak offspring to ensure the continuation of their genes, and Shaggai worms are no exception.

But adopting a human has little to do with the continuation of genes, and from the perspective of looking to the future, the elders of the Shaggai worms believe that Sherge can help them preach better, so they agreed to his joining, on the condition that he must swear that he will always be loyal to the incarnation of the Lord of All Things.

[Child, are you willing to swear this oath to the Lord? 】

"I do."

Serge's eyes were firm: "I am willing to be loyal to the Lord of All Things, the Supreme Sleeper forever."

[You——]

The elders just hoped that he could be loyal to the incarnation, but they didn't expect that Serge was so stubborn. He said on the spot that if he wanted to believe, he would believe in the original body. Countless summer bugs were touched by this and began to doubt that their faith was not as good as that of a human child.

So Serge stayed in the temple, looking after his brothers, or helping the summer bugs reach things they couldn't reach when he had nothing to do.

The good times didn't last long, and the bad luck brought by believing in the Lord of All Things came quietly.

The group of faceless people appeared in the temple and said that they were very grateful for the information he provided them. Now it was all his credit that they could come here smoothly.

Serge's face turned pale: "It's not me, I didn't!"

"No?"

The faceless people laughed wildly, and his former playmate walked out of the crowd and faced him: "Look at your face, how can you deny that you are the same as us?"

"Mother, brother... Elder! It's not like that!"

Serge turned his head to look at them, but found that their eyes had become ferocious, making a "sizzling" threatening sound.

He quickly reached out and touched his face, but found that his facial features had also disappeared, his eyes, nose, and mouth were all gone.

"What did you do!?"

"We just came to thank you for getting rid of the pests. You may not know that the beliefs of the Xiagai monster insects will only bring destruction to the world."

"And they themselves are not good things. They have no humanity at all. What they are best at is parasitizing the host's brain and controlling it to do all kinds of evil."

So, Serge Hefisgetu, you should be proud of your actions. If we can wipe out this group of pests, you will be a well-deserved hero." (End of this chapter)
