In the green belt.
Xie Wen, who had been standing here for an unknown amount of time, was still not far away, silently processing what he had just witnessed.
He had never held high expectations for the Bug King, as its appearance upon their first meeting was truly unforgettable.
Its weak and fragile body, coupled with a voice like a kitten's, made it difficult to associate with the bug that had just destroyed an adult vine individual with a single flame.
Even though they had never met the Bug King before, they could still sketch its approximate appearance based on imperial literature and legends accumulated over many years. It was said to resemble a Rakshasa, with a hoarse and extremely penetrating voice that could reach across the entire universe in an instant. How could it possibly be this weakling?
Upon seeing its appearance, the thought in Xie Wen's mind was that this might not be the true Bug King, or perhaps it had not regained its former powerful strength during reincarnation.
This.
Xie Wen looked up at the bare surroundings before him and silently slapped himself in the heart.
He really couldn't judge a book by its cover anymore.
He thought it was a ferocious beast, but it turned out to be a one-sided slaughter.
He suddenly didn't understand why this Bug King had chosen to cooperate with them. With such strength, it could easily protect its entire species. Why choose to be with them?
Did it not feel that they were a burden?
Yes, a burden.
Although the human population was not as large as before, there were still many of them, and their equipment had not seen significant advancements over the years.
Was it not afraid of dragging down the insect race by associating with them, the underachievers?
Or was the insect race planning to use a human wave tactic to ensure the prosperity of its own species?
What was its true intention?
Thinking of this, Xie Wen scratched his hair in annoyance.
Sigh.
Being the president was truly not an easy job.
He glanced at the ruins behind him, took out his intergalactic network device, and said, "For those who haven't evacuated, there's no need to move. This crisis has been resolved. I repeat, no evacuation is necessary. This unknown creature has been eliminated by the Bug King. It has been eliminated by the Bug King."
After saying this, Xie Wen hung up the intergalactic network without waiting for a reply and headed towards his office.
Indeed, Li Huan and the other two had not been wrong. That unknown creature had been quite bold to venture into the bug nest alone.
Just like that person.
As Xie Wen walked, he suddenly thought of someone or something. A dark glint flashed in his bright eyes, but it quickly disappeared, as if nothing had happened.
He stopped in his tracks, looked up at the migratory birds flying south in the sky, and let out a wry laugh. Then, in a low voice, he said, "You really didn't wait for me."
Liar.
In that room, Lin Hao, who had woken up, had already adjusted his mindset. Since it was now unavoidable to interact with people from his past life, he would go with the flow.
Everything would be left to fate.
He just didn't know what the current situation of the empire was like. Was it still the same four major families as before?
Thinking of this, Lin Hao silently took out his intergalactic network device and searched for keywords.
The results that appeared made Lin Hao almost drop the device.
Of the original Hu, Zhao, Zhang, and Han families, only one remained.
The remaining one was the Zhao family.
When Lin Hao saw this result, he found it truly unbelievable.
The imperial families had existed for centuries. It was impossible for three of them to have disappeared within this short span of ten years.
Something must have happened.
And the Hu family, a century-old family possessing a portion of the empire's military strength, how could it have vanished within a single year?
And where was Hu Tu, the first heir of the Hu family?
Was all of this a natural succession of power, or was someone manipulating things behind the scenes?
And this Zhao family, hmph.
When Lin Hao saw the picture of the Zhao family patriarch on the intergalactic network, he couldn't help but want to laugh out loud.
That old man was still as unlikable as ever.
He was so old, why wasn't he preparing for retirement and instead busied himself with the empire every day? What was the point?
This empire didn't belong to the Zhao family. Even if he now possessed one-third of the empire's military strength, the empire still belonged to the Qin family.
He really couldn't understand.
Seeing the old man, Lin Hao lost the desire to read further.
He really didn't want to delve into the conspiracy behind it, as the matter had already happened. Moreover, such political matters would never have a true outcome on the intergalactic network.
So, reading it was the same as not reading it.
With this time, he might as well think about whether this vine incident was a coincidence.
Lin Hao, who had already lain down, thought as he stared at the ceiling.
This was too much of a coincidence.
They had only arrived today. Even the lottery wasn't this lucky.
Looking at other important figures, they must have been here for a long time. They hadn't won the jackpot in all that time, yet they hit it on their first day.
Sigh.
If he had known this earlier, he should have bought a lottery ticket today.
"Ding, ding, ding."
Just as Lin Hao was deep in thought, a knock sounded at the door. "King, are you awake?" a man's voice followed.
"Come in," Lin Hao said slowly sitting up from the bed after hearing Yaslan's voice, and spoke towards the door.
Hearing his cub's voice from outside, Yaslan meticulously adjusted his appearance.
He conjured a water mirror in the air and turned it about eighty times. After finding no issues with his appearance, he softly said, "Then I'm coming in, King."
After saying this, Yaslan pushed open the door.
He then went to Lin Hao's bedside and looked down at him quietly.
Lin Hao also looked up at the commander of the Army Corps and said softly, "How is your body now? Have you recovered?"
Alas, they had been looking at each other for several minutes. If they didn't speak, they could play statues. He would be the one to speak first.
But there was a question he had always wanted to know.
That is, why was Yaslan, who was clearly not the aloof type, always putting on a poker face with no expression when he saw him? On the other hand, Elphar, who was supposed to be the aloof one, would either smile or beam whenever he saw him.
Elphar's smiles always made him suspect that some demon had abducted his aloof commander.
This.
Could this inheritance be mistaken?
Just as Lin Hao was about to flip through the inheritance in his mind, he heard Yaslan's reply, "King, I have recovered."
Actually, Yaslan had mostly recovered. After all, the recovery abilities of their insect race were not to be trifled with. Moreover, with Lin Hao's mental energy assisting in the repair at the time, those superficial injuries were healed overnight.
Now, he could even uproot a weeping willow.
