Chapter 1 8 years later
At eight o'clock in the morning, the Juvenile Pest Rescue Center.
The young Zerg who came to be a volunteer at the counter changed his previous laziness and stood up straight with a friendly smile on his face, looking out the door from time to time.
Accompanied by the crisp ringing of bells at the door, the secluded rescue center welcomed its first guest today.
"Hi, I'm here to get today's nutritional supplements."
A black-haired boy came to the counter to greet Lu Ming.The other party has fair complexion, delicate facial features, and looks a little unreal, like some kind of large doll with fine workmanship.
"It'll be fine right now."
Lu Mingqiang resisted the urge to reach out and rub the soft black hair of the other party, and skillfully filled the nutrient solution for the other party.
Originally, Lu Ming's whole body was full of resistance to this kind of voluntary activities organized by the school.
For Lu Ming, with this time, it is better to train more, and care about those wastes who need to be rescued to survive.
but now……
Looking at the little female looking at him with a pair of moist amber eyes, Lu Ming felt that his heart was about to melt.
Thank you to the school, thank you to the teachers, helping others can really make you happy, volunteer activities are so necessary!
"Thank you." Qi Zhe took the nutrient solution from Lu Ming, said goodbye politely, and left the rescue center.
The other party's voice was different from most of the Zergs. It sounded soft, giving people the illusion that the other party was acting like a baby to them.
Hearing such a voice thanking himself every day, Lu Ming felt that the world seemed to be better.
Hey, I don't know who is so cruel to let such a cute child live alone, even if the other party asks, I have to persuade him more.
Qi Zhe walked to the bench in the park and sat down, took the nutrient solution in his mouth and sucked it in small sips.
Hey--
Hundreds of years have passed, and the nutrient solution of the Zerg is still as bad as ever.
But no matter how bad it was, it was the only food he could eat today.
If it was placed a week ago, Qi Zhe would never have dreamed of such a poor situation.
However, life is always full of surprises.
Qi Zhe stopped drinking the nutrient solution, and looked at the scene in front of him curiously.
All kinds of vehicles are driving on the wide streets, all kinds of exaggerated advertisements are placed in the sky, and people of all shapes and sizes are rushing on the road.
In the usual scene, it was out of reach for him before.
When Qi Zhe was walking in the yard a week ago, his eyes suddenly went dark.When he regained consciousness again, he was standing in the middle of an unfamiliar street.
It took a long time for Qi Zhe to realize that he had come 800 years later.
It was suggested many years ago that under certain conditions, there is a certain probability that the phenomenon of time travel will occur, but Qi Zhe did not expect it to happen to him.
I don't know how it will be after 800 years for others, but this situation is really good for Qi Zhe.
Qi Zhe was born in the era when Zerg was ruled by females.
After successfully developing drugs to relieve mental power and breaking through the parthenogenesis technology, the females immediately attacked the useless and arrogant males.
A large number of males who usually bully females were tortured and killed, and the remaining males who performed well were raised in captivity.
Qi Zhe's male father was one of the captives, a very generous male.
Growing up next to such a male father, Qi Zhe didn't have any hostility towards females at all, but he couldn't accept that kind of life as peacefully as his male father.
You can only move within a fixed range, no matter who you see, you need to report in advance and wait for approval at various levels, and you have to abide by the so-called "male worm's obligations" after you become an adult.
But it is different now. After 800 years, the male has been completely extinct for various reasons, and no one knows his identity.
He is about to start a new life.
Three days ago, Qi Zhe pretended to be a cub who had just left his foster family and came to the Juvenile Cub Protection Center.
Most Zerg have no strong feelings, even for their own children.
Therefore, according to the current law, the Zerg can choose to leave their families and live by themselves when they reach the age of 14.
As for the minor Zerg who come out to live by themselves, the Federation will provide accommodation and distribute a bag of nutrient solution and 10 star coins every day to maintain the most basic life until they reach the age of 20.
However, in the Zerg society where strength is paramount, such larvae who choose to live on their own but are unable to support themselves, and come to receive subsidies will be treated as waste.
Only a male like him who can't find a job and can't get into school will go to receive relief supplies every day.But fortunately, it is easy to get the identity certificate, otherwise it will be troublesome.
After Qi Zhe finished drinking the nutrient solution, he sighed slightly sadly.
Re-applying for identification is certainly not easy for others.
Not only do you have to review various materials, but you also need to issue various relevant certificates. It will take two or three days to complete a set of procedures.
But when the always cold-blooded staff saw the disappointed expression in Qi Zhe's beautiful eyes, they immediately broke their defenses.
They could not wait for Qi Zhe to sit in the lounge, eat biscuits and drink milk, and wait for them to finish.
In fact, it did.
The small biscuits in the office are also the first time Qi Zhe has eaten something other than nutrient solution since he came to the future.
Feeling the bitter taste in his mouth, Qi Zhe silently shed tears in his heart.
If you only buy daily necessities with ten star coins a day, you can barely survive, but as long as you do a little bit of other things, it is not enough at all, let alone improve food.
Fortunately, he has found a job.
The news of finding a job eased Qi Zhe's slightly frowning brows from just now, and his beautiful amber eyes were filled with warmth.
This look also relieved the surrounding Zerg.
More than ten years of deformed growth experience made Qi Zhe's gaze towards other people extremely dull, and naturally he didn't notice how many people secretly looked here since he sat here just now.
At first, they just thought that the little bug cub looked so cute, so they couldn't help but look at it a few more times.
I was immersed in it at this glance, and seeing the other party frowning as if something happened, they couldn't wait to run over to coax him.
I don't know whose child it is that makes him so sad. If he raises it for himself, he can't be spoiled by heaven.
Just when the surrounding females were trying to coax him, Qi Zhe finally restrained his emotions and was ready to start his first day of work.
Qi Zhe turned on the navigation, followed the route to the station, and planned to take the interstellar train to his work place.
It is the rush hour for work now, and the station is very crowded.
Such a scene made Qi Zhe a little uncomfortable at first, but it was quickly replaced by excitement. It was the first time he had seen so many people of other races in places other than books when he grew up.
This is an asteroid in the No.13 galaxy, located at the border of the Zerg-administered star field, at a junction.
Although it is not as prosperous as the central galaxy, the special geographical location has brought together a large number of people from other races, and it has gradually become a famous trading center.
Qi Zhe maintained his good mood until it was time to get on the bus and buy a ticket.
The place where he is going to work now is a high-end restaurant run by a human race.
He is now in a relatively remote place on this planet, and the restaurant is in a prosperous area of the planet.
The distance between the two places is relatively far, and the fare alone costs 2 stars by train.
Qi Zhe paid with his bracelet expressionlessly, but his heart was bleeding.
Poverty makes people miserable.
Qi Zhe has saved enough these days, but he still has to pay for daily necessities, water bills, electricity bills, and internet bills.
An extra 4 yuan for the fare every day made his already poor life worse.
Qi Zhe stood in the car and continued to be depressed.
It is characteristic that he has himself on the Zerg train.There are very few seats in the train.
And although it is not specified, only cubs usually sit on the seats, so there are often scenes where there are empty seats on the train but no one is sitting.
Qi Zhe, who thought he was already big, was of course embarrassed to sit on the seat.
Fortunately, there is still more than an hour's drive away from the destination. It may be a bit tiring to stand all the time, but it is not unbearable.
The train was crowded with people of all races. Qi Zhe was not used to having physical contact with others due to his previous life experience. He subconsciously squeezed into a corner, opened the star network and began to read a book.
Qi Zhe is a rare S-level spiritual power, and even in the entire interstellar world, there are only a handful of S-level spiritual owners, and he is an important talent in various countries.
Females with S-level mental power in the Zerg race became powerful fighters without exception.
When Qi Zhe was a child, he also dreamed that he would be admitted to a military academy when he grew up, and travel in the sea of stars in a mecha.
Of course, this dream was quickly shattered. A group of people were cautious about even holding a fruit knife, let alone sending him to a military academy.
But it's different now.
The time immersed in study always flies by quickly. When Qi Zhe raised his head and stretched his stiff neck, he saw a strange scene.
Is it... his illusion, why are there more and more Zerg nearby?
In the interstellar world, the Zerg are called natural warriors. They have unique physical and mental strength, but they lack empathy, which makes them look extraordinarily cold.In many cases, just standing aside in an ordinary way can bring great oppression to others.
At this time, a large circle of Zerg gathered around Qi Zhe.
The corners of the Zerg's mouths were straightened, their bodies were tense, and they would look this way from time to time, as if they would rush up in the next second.
This is yourself, did you do something you shouldn't do?
Qi Zhe took a step back subconsciously, carefully recalled his behavior after getting in the car, and wondered if he had done anything unintentionally that caused public outrage.
Suddenly a Zerg who was more than a head taller than Qi Zhe walked up to him.
The other party's jaw was tight, and he grabbed the armrest beside him with all his strength, and he could vaguely see the blue veins protruding from his strong arm, so he just stared at Qi Zhe without saying a word.
You shouldn't hit people casually in public... right?
Qi Zhe tuned to the alarm page calmly, shrank his body back, and prepared to call the police if something went wrong.
Just when Qi Zhe was thinking about what to do in the fight, the young man in front of him suddenly said, "You, do you want to sit next to me?"
"???"
After speaking, the face of the person opposite turned red.
He hesitated and wanted to say something more, but was quickly squeezed out by a crowd of people rushing up beside him.
"There is still space over there to sit for a while."
"That's right, standing is too tiring. Go and rest for a while."
"Uncle has sugar here, do you want to eat some?"
You, you cowards.I didn't dare to speak up just now, and now I don't let him speak.
The vicious-looking Zerg made a villain in his heart, but no matter how much he cursed in his heart, he couldn't squeeze in now.
Yes, they came to persuade Qi Zhe to sit on the seat. Isn't the empty seat just for this kind of child?
Before, they saw that the little female had been looking at the star network so that they could not be disturbed. They finally waited for him to look up, but they didn't dare to step forward, so they kept standing around.
"!!!"
Is this treating yourself like a little bug?
Will the Zerg be so friendly to their cubs in the future!
But he's not young enough to care so much now!
Unlike female insects, male insects grow and develop later. Qi Zhe is not short among male insects, but compared with female insects of the same age, he looks extraordinarily petite. Among the females, Qi Zhe stood out like a kitten mixed into a pride of lions.
"No, I'm actually not young anymore." Qi Zhe was a little bit embarrassed.
The little insect in front of him seemed to be shy, a blush appeared on his delicate porcelain white cheeks, he lowered his head slightly, and his curled eyelashes trembled accordingly.
How can it be so cute! ! !
The surrounding Zerg shouted in their hearts, and the expressions on their faces became more loving, "Okay, you are already big."
Qi Zhe: That's right, it's embarrassing.
