My Master Disconnected Yet Again

“I am!” Lonemoon took a step forward.

The queen shifted her massive body and came slightly closer. A pair of compound eyes the sizes of half a human head each instantly reflected millions of the opposite figure. She laughed coldly after a moment. “Human, you are very brave, do you know that in these few thousand years, you are the first human who dared to come into my nest.”

“Queen, I mean no offense.” Lonemoon frowned, his impression of the insect race was still left at the horror films from his previous life, all he could was look at the insect before him as a large scale demon monster. “But the egg that you took away is extremely important to us, please return it to us.”

“You’re referring to this?” She suddenly shifted her belly, and they could see that various types of eggs underneath, the one right in the middle was that colored egg. She directly stretched out two feelers and picked that colored egg up, the pair of icy compound eyes looked towards Lonemoon once again. “You want this egg?”

Lonemoon nodded. “Yes.”

She suddenly laughed, that laughter was very odd, it sounded like some kind of howling, so sharp that it was slightly ear-piercing, and there was no emotion in it, just like she was simply reading out her lines. “You humans can always discover some weird things. The same goes for this egg, it looks like it doesn’t have much energy but in actuality, the energy in here is purer than any other. You all can’t tell, but I can feel it.”

Lonemoon frowned but heard her continue to say, “Do you know why I’m collecting these eggs?” As if not needing his answer, she then said, “My children’s sentience are limited, they think its purely out of liking so they go around finding eggs for me to nest, but they don’t know that I’ve merely taken a fancy to the energy in these eggs, that they can ease the damage on my body.”

“The insect race has always depended on the queen for survival, as long as I exist, the insect race will not go extinct.” She waved her feelers, rotating the colored egg on it while her voice became lower. “But when I passed through to this Void Land, I suffered unrepairable injuries, this led to my birthing speed dropping severely. As such, our insect race could no longer enjoy the past glory that we had. But this egg could temporarily ease up such injuries, especially this specially pure one.”

“…”

“So human…” Her voice dropped, faintly containing some mockery. “Do you think I willr return this to you again?”

Lonemoon’s brows knitted even more tightly, in this case, it seems like being reasonable wouldn’t work. “Then queen you ought to know that since I dare to come to your nest, I must get that egg and we are not afraid of fighting.”

The queen let out that odd laughter once again, the millions of figures in the compound eyes became even clearer, making one very uncomfortable. After a moment, she said, “Human, you don’t need to threaten me. From the moment you stepped into this royal court, I could already sense the capabilities on your bodies. You are indeed very strong, but not to the extent where you have no weaknesses.”

Lonemoon faltered, after a sense, he instantly felt his body became sluggish, the divine power in his body felt like it was being locked up, this feeling was slightly familiar, just like… the previous time he was forced to marry by the peach flower demon. He was shocked. “The flowers here…”

“Did you finally notice?” The queen’s laughter became louder. “Why do you I talked to you here for such a long time, I’ve said it long before, I am different from those children of mine with low sentience. Whereas you humans have always been arrogant, loving to materialize the other races that do not have human forms.”

F*ck! Lonemoon also felt that he was too careless. This queen was more intelligent than the average demon monster, even more cunning than average humans. She’d never thought of giving the colored egg to him, she’d merely set up a trap for him to walk into.

On the other, Buggy was already a little anxious, he glanced at Lonemoon, then peeped at the queen. “My queen…” The natural instincts of his race made he that he could not say anything that could rebut his queen and he could only panic.

“The energy in your body is also quite interesting.” The queen directly crawled two steps closer to him, the pair of cold compound eyes now contained some killing intent. “Perhaps after absorbing your energy, my injuries can heal even faster.” With that said, she lifted her front legs that resembled big shears.

“On Buggy’s account, we do not wish to fight you.” Lonemoon’s surprise earlier only lasted a moment, he resumed his composure immediately. Back then, that flower demon could control him, was mainly because of he had been drugged, he wasn’t sober, it wasn’t that those flowers could restrict him, he was a manager after all. “Do you really think that by using these flowers to lock up my divine power, you’d be able to win?”

The queen faltered, seeming to reminded of something, then she smiled again, saying, “Are you talking about the two people outside?” She sneered coldly. “Foolish humans, do you really think they can save you? Alright, anyway all of you will become my food, I do not mind letting you have a reunion.”

With that said, she let out another inexplicable sound, in the next second, the footsteps of two people sounded from outside. In moments, two familiar figures reflected on the screen at the entrance.

“I would like to see if they too, have such abundant energy, like you?” Once her words fell, two figures walked through the screen into the room. “Naive humans, I will never be defeated…”

Huh?

Her words became stuck as her entire body trembled abruptly like she had been struck by a wave and was in extreme shock. It was a male and a female who walked in, the male was emitting a robust energy all over, whereas the female…

Big… big… big… big devil…

Σ(°△°|||)

With a few spurts, her tail shook as she was so terrified that strings of eggs spurted out.

“Hey!” Shen Ying looked up and swept a glance at the queen. “It’s a big insect.”

“…”

In the next second, the queen, as swift as lightning, laid flat on the ground and raised the egg between her feelers, bringing it to Shen Ying’s front.

“Mdm Shen Ying, your egg!”

She became timid in a sparking moment, that caught everyone by surprise! It was as if the person who was swollen with inordinate arrogance earlier, wasn’t her.

Lonemoon: “…”

Yi Qing: “…”

Buggy: “…”

Heh heh, indeed, “timidity upon seeing Ying” was a fine tradition of the insect race!

“Oh.” Shen Ying reached out and took the egg. Her fingers but twitched but she still managed to hold back from habitually pulling the queen over together.

The queen hastily retracted her feelers and retreated instantly. The whole insect shrank to the other end of the room, her massive body fought to curl up, working hard to reduce her presence. The arrogance from earlier had vanished, like it never existed, she even didn’t dare to lay anymore eggs.
