Holy Land, Ouranos.
This is a city in the sky that is completely located above the capital planet of the empire. The entire city is made of a kind of meteorite with floating characteristics. The edge of the sky island is planted with a world tree hundreds of meters high, with branches like a checkerboard. They are criss-crossing and criss-crossing, firmly concealing the exquisite palaces.
It's like giant dragons guarding their treasures.
In fact, there is indeed an existence that is regarded as a treasure by the entire Zerg tribe - male worms.
The number of males is rare and their bodies are weak. The vast majority of male larvae in the empire will be sent to the Holy Land of Ouranos after birth to receive support from the best resources in the entire empire. Their custody will not be given until they get married. Transferred to the respective females by the Male Insect Protection Association.
Before this, it was difficult for the males to get the chance to leave Ouranos.
Except for a weekly "date day" as an adult.
The female insects who are eligible to initiate dating applications are either rich or powerful, but the most common ones are military females who open up territories for the empire - for the Zerg, war is always the fastest way to obtain various resources, even if the males No matter how reluctant the Insect Protection Association is, as long as they want to use the top rare resources to support male insects, they can only make certain concessions to the military.
In fact, even if it is for precious free time, the males will not refuse all the invitations of the military females.
Some male bugs will even pinch their noses and choose military females that they don't like but are strong enough to fight. The strength and power of the dating females greatly determine the scope and freedom of their outdoor activities.
Today is Sunday, the weekly date in the Holy Land.
The worker of the Male Insect Protection Association who is responsible for sorting out dating applications is sitting at the entrance of Ouranos. While processing various data, he will send the female application forms to the corresponding male through the star network.
"Sir Davis, there are a total of twenty-seven female insects that meet the criteria for dating applications from you this time. Please pay attention to check them."
"Your Excellency Kerry..."
"Your Excellency Harris..."
Today, when there are more females than males, almost every male has received no less than twenty dating application bids.
The work bugs responsible for registration and negotiation looked serious, occasionally discussing in low voices with each other, and showed great care and prudence about the weekly date. Only when they faced the male bug, did they It will soothe the eyebrows and reveal a soft smile.
The males are used to this.
They have no expressions towards the working bugs, and their actions when turning on the optical brain bracelet to check the star network are also full of scorn and casualness. For the female bugs, it takes a lot of money and countless precious opportunities to compete with the female bugs, but for the male bugs, It's just a nod.
An open-air garden less than ten meters away from the workbench.
The high-ranking ministers leisurely drank tea and snacks while selecting the objects of interest from the vast application forms. The male insects who had already made their choices transmitted their answers to the work insects through the star network and were absentmindedly waiting for today's appointment. object.
Which Tool Bug's Star Coins will you spend this week?
Until the working bug suddenly called the name of one of the male bugs——
"Your Excellency Yilin." The worker insect read the male insect's name while looking at the dating application under his name. The whole process was no different from other male insects. However, when he noticed the number of application forms, it was because of his work experience. He was also shocked by the extremely rich amount.
"There are a total of 129 females who have invited you to date this week and meet the criteria. Considering the large amount of information in the application form, it may take a lot of your valuable time. Do you want us to provide you with more information? Do a screening?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the males who were still enjoying themselves in the outdoor garden all looked over.
These males received quite a few dating applications, but the most among them only received twenty-nine dating applications, which just met the last two digits of one hundred and twenty-nine.
In the face of such a huge gap, no matter how arrogant the male insect is, he cannot remain calm.
They may not like those female insects who are chasing them feverishly, but whether they like it or not is one thing, and it is another thing completely to kill the number of pursuers of the same sex.
All the bugs turned their attention to the male bug standing in front of the working bug.
Faced with the scrutiny of almost everyone of the same sex in the room, the male known as "Your Excellency Yilin" behaved extremely calmly and calmly. Compared to other males whose eyes were higher than the top of their heads, Yilin's attitude could be described as polite.
He showed an approachable smile to the worker, and then said in a gentle voice: "It doesn't matter, I just need to look at a few more applications. I can do it myself."
"In any case, these application forms represent the wishes of females. They spend a lot of money and effort on dating applications. If I, the person being pursued, just sifted them away without even looking at them, it would be unfair. It’s so inhumane.”
As he spoke, his face and eyes were full of solemnity and gentleness that was different from all the males in the room.
The work bug was immediately impressed!
The male insects have a noble status and it is normal for them to be indifferent to the female insects. The working insects themselves are used to it, but when a gentleman with an outstanding appearance and a gentle temperament communicates with the insects on an equal footing, he cherishes every piece he receives. When it comes to your heart, who can resist this?
At least the work bug is a little over the top.
He couldn't help but sigh: "No wonder Your Excellency Yilin is being chased by so many females. When I was young, I would have been attracted to Your Excellency like you."
In response, Yilin curled his lips and smiled gently.
The male insects in the open-air garden murmured in a low voice, feeling sour and angry: "It's this foreign male insect again."
"He is the male insect that the Second Legion brought back from Desolate Star last time? Look at his worthless appearance. He greets any female insect with a smile. No wonder the females chose him."
It was at this time that the work bug read out the name that followed——
"Your Excellency Tang Jiu..."
The work bug looked at the empty inbox and felt worried. In front of everyone, he was not stupid enough to tell you that this male bug had not received any dating applications. This was not a slap in your face. Embarrassing?
Fortunately, Mr. Tangjiu was quite interested in the military female he dated last time, and took the initiative to request a date. The male insect's wishes were always given priority in dating applications. Since the male insect himself had an army female he was interested in, then It is normal to ignore other application forms.
However, when he opened the military female's message, he was dumbfounded by the content.
"Damn the army girl! Damn Tariq!"
Seeing the message sent by the other party that due to urgent matters in the military department, he had no time to respond to the appointment request of the male insect, the worker insect became angry on the spot: "Who does he think he is? The male insect condescended to give him a second chance. , is it not as important as the legion’s work?!”
This cannot be said to be unwise.
There were so many male bugs present, and being evasive would only make the bugs more suspicious. When the work bugs were singled out directly, the firepower was concentrated on the ungrateful military female, and he also pointed out the reason why the other party refused to date—— Missing an appointment because of Legion priority sounds much better than any other excuse.
Before the worker could breathe a sigh of relief for his adaptability, the male who was standing next to Yilin and looking at the more than one hundred application forms that Yilin received suddenly said "Huh" and said in surprise: "You said Major General Tariq is busy with military affairs and has no time to attend this date?"
The male raised his eyebrows with a playful expression: "Then why is there a date application from Major General Tariq here in Yilin?"
silence.
Deathly silence.
After a short and embarrassing silence, in the open-air garden not far away, the male insects eating melons with their ears erect laughed together, not too obvious that they were watching a show.
It's embarrassing to be overwhelmed by the number of dating applications you receive from the same sex, but it's like pursuing yourself, only to deny it in disguise and pursue another male instead when you condescendingly decided to give him a second chance. In comparison, that's nothing worth mentioning.
The person in question, Tang Jiu, rubbed his ears with a sad expression.
It's not because of the scene of throwing insects at the moment, but because of the voice called the system that is talking in his mind at the moment——
[Host, you see, I’ve said it before, among the Zerg tribe, the most popular characters are those who are gentle, considerate, devoted and doting on their wives! Believe me, the protagonist can be gentle and considerate, and so can you! He is gentle and considerate, and we are more gentle and considerate than him! Let's kill him! Let’s see who is the true group favorite of the Zerg tribe! 】
Tang Jiu didn't even think about it: "No."
【Why? 】The system is puzzled: 【Don’t the host want to become the most sought-after male? 】
Tang Jiu lowered his eyes and said nothing.
The system came to him last week.
According to the system, this world is actually a Zerg novel. Yilin, who has received more than a hundred dating applications because of his gentle temperament, is the protagonist in the novel. Tarik pursues Yilin because he cannot stand his arrogant and arrogant temperament. The major general is the protagonist in the book.
As for Tangjiu, he is the cannon fodder control group in the book.
The meaning of his existence is to set off Yilin's uniqueness. Yilin is gentle and carefree. The protagonist Gong is chased by countless higher-level females because of his gentle and equal attitude towards all females. Tang Jiu, however, is in contrast to the protagonist Gong. He appeared to be particularly arrogant and stupid, and in the end he became disliked by everyone and was despised by everyone.
According to the system, if he wants to change his fate as cannon fodder, he must change his personality and follow Yilin's every move.
Tang Jiu was not interested in this.
Every insect has its own personality. Let’s not talk about whether the female insect he attracts by pretending to be gentle really likes him. Let’s talk about the disguise itself. If he can pretend for a while, how can he pretend for a lifetime?
Just to be favored by more female insects, he has to pretend to be another insect for the rest of his life and live a life that is beyond recognition?
That would be too tiring.
Lazy Tang Jiu refused in his heart.
He thought for a while and asked the system: "In the novel you mentioned, did I die in the end?"
The system was shocked: [How is that possible? Host, you are a precious male insect. As long as you don't commit any fundamental issues, you will be able to live a lifetime of food and clothing. 】
Tang Jiu: That’s okay.
The local male Tangjiu is very open-minded.
Since you can’t commit suicide, of course you have to commit suicide!
Tang Jiu has never been a tolerant person. He doesn't like to let frustrations stay with him for the night. If he feels unhappy, he will usually report it on the spot. Now a bunch of males are gloating and waiting to see his joke. What if Tang Jiu doesn't get back his place?
Therefore, Tang Jiu's heart can be said to be frighteningly simple——
Wasn't it because Tarik thought he had a bad temper and chose the good male Ilin instead?
Aren't those military women who have a good relationship with Tariq following others' advice and not asking him for a date, leaving him to embarrass himself in public?
Then he should find a date with a female who can defeat Tariq in all aspects. It would be better if she could envy all the male insects present - wouldn't this match bring him back?
So where is the female insect that can kill Tariq?
Tang Jiu recalled the content of the original book that the system had transmitted to him in his sleep last night, and quickly locked in on his date choice for this trip——
Alessio Klein.
He is the villainous boss in the original book, and he is also the marshal of the empire with a high authority above all insects; he once opened up territories for the Zerg, led the legion to plunder countless rare resources in one war after another, and also When the Zerg faced the critical moment of alien invasion, he guarded the empire's peace for a hundred years and tore apart countless foreign enemies.
Money, status, power.
He is these three terms themselves.
In addition, he is also the adoptive father of Tariq, the protagonist in the original book, who is the posthumous son of his female comrade in the army in his early years.
Before the protagonist Shou formally broke up with the villain, the protagonist Shou had to respectfully call him the female father because of the kindness of raising him for more than twenty years.
Isn't this the best face-slapping tool? Tang Jiu thought.
Facing the worried gaze of the work bug, who was watching the show, Tang Jiu told the worker bug without raising his eyelids: "Contact the military department for me and tell me that I want to find Marshal Klein."
The face is calm and calm, but the soul inside is in a daze.
Speaking of which, if he really falls in love with this imperial war god and gets married to the protagonist, won't the two destined protagonists have to respectfully call him "heroic father"?
Tang Jiu couldn't think for long before he was interrupted by the tool bug.
While observing his expression, the latter unfolded the video communication screen to all the insects present, and said cautiously: "Your Excellency Tang Jiu, I just contacted the military department. They said that the marshal is free now and will help you immediately. Transfer to the Marshal's Office."
As if to confirm his words.
The next second, under the gaze of all the insects, the pitch-black video screen lit up, clearly reflecting a tall and sharp insect shadow.
