Chapter 354: The Steady and Shy Zerg Queen (87)
Perhaps it is a common problem among ambitious people, but they are always more tolerant and kind to those who are pure-minded and too transparent...
No! He is a female Zerg who wants to stand at the top of the Zerg race! How could he be blinded by two idiots! ?
Caesar, who was mentally prepared, raised his head and waited for the battle. If this was the challenge on his way to the top...
Come on! I won't--
"You are worthy of being the great female insect who ascended to the position of marshal and was engraved on the historical monument. I will keep your teachings in mind and continue to follow your example to eliminate the alien beasts and protect the insect race. So, can you sign an autograph for me?"
“Marshal, Marshal! Did you really lead only 3,000 team members to wipe out 500,000 alien beasts? Too amazing, too amazing, too amazing!! And, your mental power has been developed to the limit of S-level, isn’t it super S-level!?”
There was a line of words clearly written on Bai Yichen and Yi Luoan's faces, "Too awesome!"
Caesar clenched his teeth tightly, but the corners of his mouth had their own thoughts and rose quietly. He clenched his fists to try to cover them and coughed lightly twice.
“It’s just so-so, low-key.”
"It's okay, it's simple."
"It's nothing, just like that."
Sorry, he really can't bear it anymore. Who can resist a fan whose eyes light up the moment they see you and who keeps praising you?
If this was the special attack test that the road to the top would put on him, Caesar admitted that he couldn't stand it.
Bai Yichen didn't expect that the one who couldn't help but ask in the end was Caesar.
"Aren't you curious about my face?"
The tall female insect sat there, and every move she made showed signs of military training. When you first saw her, what you noticed was not her terrifying face, but her towering aura. As long as you saw her, you would feel extremely at ease.
Iroan was a little surprised, as if Caesar had asked an obvious question like 'Why do you see patterns on the floor?'
"Caesar is Caesar, you are our marshal, as for the scar on your face...does it matter?"
His tone was not one of indifference to the suffering of other insects. On the contrary, Iloan's eyes were full of trust in Caesar, the insect. Just like the look in the eyes of the insects who unhesitatingly entrusted their backs to him, the marshal, to protect them when Caesar went to the battlefield many years ago.
Trust, determination, admiration, longing...
Look, Caesar, even Eloam sees your fear.
The blonde female covered her face with her hands, stroking her familiar yet unfamiliar facial features through the uneven skin. She forgot how long it had been since she had looked in the mirror.
Would the Marshal be afraid too?
meeting.
He was afraid of seeing himself in the mirror with his eyebrows lowered and his face submissive, afraid of seeing his waist unable to straighten, his head unable to lift, afraid of his eyes that were dead silent but still embers were not extinguished——
I am even more afraid of the contemptuous and pitying eyes of the mature insects.
When he woke up in the middle of the night, he saw Carlo's skull at the head of the bed. The empty eye sockets seemed to be recording his sins. If the soul after death could measure good and evil, then he must be guilty of heinous crimes.
But the only thing he didn't regret was.
Caesar knew very well that the Zerg's rules could not be broken in one day, and simple force and resistance could not solve any problems. All he could do was to influence them subtly, to reverse and change them bit by bit.
If the truth is finally revealed, it will all be his fault and no other insect will be implicated.
That's fine too.
But today, one by one, everyone could see his fear.
"Hahaha……"
Caesar exhaled, and straightened his back quite a bit when he put his hand down. "You're right, it's not important."
Bai Yichen was keenly aware that something was different. However...
He curled his eyes and said, "I hope you can think it through."
Caesar looked at him.
"Your achievements will not be denied by history. Those who have the courage to resist injustice are always worthy of admiration. Moreover..."
As Caesar was listening attentively, Bai Yichen's next words suddenly entered his ears.
"You are Iloan's idol, and I believe in his vision."
Yi Luoan's eyes were moist, "My Lord..."
Caesar: "..."
Is it too late to pretend not to hear now?
He didn't understand why the male insect in front of him would always want to kick him when he was in awe.
The atmosphere eased, and Iloan suddenly thought of Aino outside the door, "Marshal, do you know that Aino is colluding with the rebel leader Anqiao?"
"……Know."
Caesar's downcast eyes puzzled Iroan, but he took the initiative to offer, "I have already controlled Aino, and learned from him about Anqiao's deployment of personnel. As long as you give the order and take precautions in advance, we can catch them all in one fell swoop."
"There's no rush for this." Caesar poured a glass of water for Iroan and pushed it in front of him. "The time is not yet ripe, so be patient."
Before Yiluoan could say anything, his fingertips were suddenly pinched. Bai Yichen said softly, "Yiluoan, I'm worried about Noah. Go to the door and knock Aino unconscious and put him in the next room."
Iloan naturally had no objection to the Lord's words, and Caesar's silence obviously indicated his agreement.
The door opened and closed, Bai Yichen picked up the cup that Caesar pushed in front of Iloan and took a sip.
Caesar took a look and said, "Send him away. What do you want to ask?"
Bai Yichen turned the rim of his cup and shook his head, "I wanted to ask you, but seeing your reaction, there's no need to ask."
What else is there to ask?
Why didn't you stop Aino and Anqiao when you knew they were in contact?
Are you asking why you deliberately indulged An Qiao's actions?
Bai Yichen thought of the time when An Qiao was rescued from the star pirates by Bug, and it was Eno who examined him.
It is impossible for only one male insect to undergo the inspection. After the inspection report is generated, will the records retained by the insects not find anything abnormal? Not necessarily.
The news was blocked so well that it was only possible for the Insect King to take action. Considering that the Insect King was disguised as Caesar, everything naturally made sense.
"You are indeed very smart."
Caesar praised him and then asked, "Why did you send Iroan away? As a major general, don't you have the courage to do this? Or do you think he doesn't have the courage to face sacrifice?"
"Do not."
Bai Yichen retorted, “Iloan is different from you.”
"It's better to not know than to know and be in a dilemma. I don't want him to be entangled, and I don't want him to be embarrassed and give in to any insect."
Caesar raised his eyebrows, "Even you?"
The bottom of the cup hit the table, making a dull sound, and Bai Yichen curled his lower lip.
"Even if it's me."
Therefore, knowing that Caesar wanted to use Anjo as a pusher to force the female insects, even if the rebellion would be suppressed in the end, it would eventually leave a shadow in the hearts of the insects, knowing that there would be casualties.
Bai Yichen also didn't want Yiluoan to know this.
Iloan, his major general, his queen.
You just need to be the guardian angel who saves insects from fire and water, and do everything from your heart.
