mother of all races

Lin Xi took a deep breath.

"Let's talk about something else, something serious." Lin Xi stared at Sorian, "I came here to meet you after a lot of hard work, and you almost lost your life to let that so-called Sk Captain Ripps shows up. I don't want our conversation to be entangled in my... pets."

He was trying his best to make his voice sound peaceful and harmless, as if the "Number One" who was snuggling against his neck and making his back dripping with cold sweat was really just an ordinary worm pet.

At the same time, he secretly prayed in his heart that "Number One" would never know the true meaning of the word "pet".

Lin Xi could feel that "No. [-]" seemed to be looking at him more seriously, and he kept his gaze forward, pretending that he didn't notice the prying and curiosity of the monster beside him.

Maybe it was Lin Xi's performance that really gave Sorian the illusion.

He finally opened his mouth to respond to Lin Xi's words: "Then what are you referring to? Harry will not lie, since Captain Scripps said that you are—"

"I don't think that guy is telling the truth."

Alisa, who had been hiding behind Lin Xi, suddenly interrupted Sorian at this moment.

"He said so much—he said that Lin Xi is the mother of those monsters, the breeder of them, and everything we encounter now is because of Lin Xi."

Alisa took two steps forward.

"What he said is nonsense, and he can't produce any evidence. In fact, he can't even prove that he is Scripps... But I can tell you that the culprit of all this It's all Taran, I saw him in his secret warehouse in his disgusting appearance, and his soliloquies—”

In this way, Alisa told everything she encountered in the secret warehouse in a calm tone.

Perhaps it was because this was the second time she had talked about the horrific things in the warehouse in front of others, and this time she spoke in a more organized manner than before, and recalled more details.

"Wait, you mean... Taran?"

"That's right," Alisa pointed to herself, "otherwise, why do you think I changed from the deputy captain of the Helios to the current defector. My electronic resume is now full of major violations, and my career Completely ruined—Talaan wanted to ruin me, because he found out it was me hiding there, and I was going to cause him trouble."

When her resume was mentioned, Alisa's eyes became extremely sharp.

"Besides, I believe you have already noticed something is wrong, haven't you?"

Facing the silent Sorian, Alyssa pressed on step by step.

She pointed to the dilapidated lighting facilities in the hall.

"You separated the system on this level from the main system of the Helios. It's a big project. Don't tell me you're just doing it for fun—you're wary of Taran."

"...I also have my news channel."

Facing Alisa, Sorian said somewhat unnaturally.

"But I never thought he would do such a thing. He gave up everything a thousand miles away and turned a whole ship of people into this monster - just to make himself a higher-level bug ? What the hell is he thinking?"

"That's right, none of us can understand that guy's thoughts, because Talan is a complete lunatic." Alisa's tone became particularly sharp when he mentioned Talan, "But we who are standing in front of you now, including Lin Xi, they are all normal people through and through... We are completely different from Talan. But that Mr. Ghost who doesn’t know the origin insists that Lin Xi is the mother of some kind of bullshit. This is too illogical.”

"Maybe we can cooperate." Bryce said at the right time, "...Talan is the one we should deal with now. After all, that guy is almost a humanoid termite queen now, and he can also drive those who have mutated People. And my younger brother Lin Xi, he is an innocent and normal person—”

Speaking of this, Bryce glanced at Lin Xi involuntarily, and then he choked up because of the "number one" beside Lin Xi.

"Although he does have such a... a bit strange... pet..."

Blaise finished the sentence with great difficulty.

But as soon as Bryce finished speaking, he saw "Number One" turning his head to look at him, and there was a curious look in those eyes that looked like Savile - Bryce suspected that his hair was about to explode .

"Pets... pets?"

"No. [-]" muttered softly like a parrot.

Lynch gave Bryce an under-the-radar, he's already in enough trouble, and there's no need to add the dreaded task of explaining to Number One what a pet really is.

"Normal people wouldn't keep bugs as pets on this ship... and in my impression, Star Butterfly wouldn't grow up like this."

Sorian couldn't help muttering.

His words still contained guard against Lin Xi and the others, but everyone could tell that his attitude had relaxed a lot.

Everything was going in a good direction, but just when Lin Xi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, Harry, who had been silent all this time, suddenly stood up unsteadily from the ground.

"No, that's not right...you've been cheated...you must have been cheated..."

Harry looked at Sorian, who murmured.

"At the beginning, I didn't listen to John, I thought he was just alarmist, so I let Annie eat the food bag. I thought it was nothing... For God's sake, I was wrong, Sorian, I didn't listen to John If so, I ignored Captain Scripps' warning, and look what I ended up with...my poor Annie...the reason he became like that is because I didn't obey..."

"Harry—"

"Fine! You're a good man, and I can't let you be cheated by them. You have to obey, or you'll regret it—you will—"

After speaking, Harry suddenly took out a small black cube from his pocket.

"Oh my God, you're crazy!"

When they saw the things in Harry's hands, everyone's expressions changed instantly.

It was a beam bomb.

"You're going to blow yourself up—"

Sorian yelled.

But Harry turned a deaf ear.

The massive blood loss and pain had made him a little dazed, and he turned his head to look at Lin Xi.As early as the moment he took out the beam bomb, Lin Xi retreated to the farthest corner of the hall with Alisa and Bryce (there is also "No. [-]" who is obediently sticking to him because the end is unknown).

But except for "No. [-]", all three of them knew that there was no way to escape the explosion range of the beam bomb in this range.

"demon."

At the same time, Harry, who was standing on the other side, had already muttered his last word in this world.

Then he threw the bomb directly in the direction of Lin Xi——

No one saw "Number One" in action.

When people realized it, what they saw was a flying finger and blood spattering on the wall.The beam bomb fell to the ground, and next to it were the fingers that should have been pressed on the opening ring, and a severed palm that was still twitching.

That's right, the moment Harry was about to turn on the beam bomb, his hand was cut off.

This avoided an earth-shattering explosion, but the situation at the scene was no more peaceful than the explosion——

"Ahhhhhhh-"

Just as the bomb that failed to explode fell, there was a scream from Harry.

He screamed and covered the wrist of his right hand with his left hand. His palm had been cut off directly from the wrist, and a column of blood gushed out like a fountain in an instant.

The severe pain almost made Harry go crazy.

He staggered and swayed on the spot, half of his body was stained red by his own blood.

"Harry—"

"'Number one'!"

The scene in front of them stunned everyone present.

Immediately afterwards, Sorian rushed towards Harry, while "Number One" flied back to Lin Xi's side, waving its forelegs still stained with red blood.

Out of a biological instinct, it provoked Harry's severed palm with the spikes on the top of its forelegs.

This is its gift to Lin Xi.

"God ah ah ah—"

It has to be said that the scene of the blood-stained monster raising its body with great interest and rushing towards it is a bit too exciting for mentally fragile humans.

Bryce subconsciously took a few steps forward in an attempt to get in front of Alyssa and Lin Xi.

"Number One" raised his front limbs towards him almost subconsciously, Alisa and Lin Xi screamed out of their wits, Lin Xi instinctively touched his waist - he subconsciously wanted to shoot , but he quickly realized that Sorian had already taken all the weapons from them before that.

It's just... even without a weapon, "Number One" slammed on the brakes and stopped all his movements quickly after seeing Lin Xi's movements.

"Lin Xi..."

It stood in front of Lin Xi in a daze and looked at Lin Xi...

"Boss, what happened—"

Almost at the same moment, the mercenaries who had been staying outside the hall heard screams from Harry.

They slammed the door open.

And then...they saw Number One.

At that moment, the world seemed to be at peace.

"Tick tock..."

Blood dripped from the severed palm on the spikes of "Number One" and fell on the already bloody ground.

Huge, ferocious insect bodies are not that scary to the mercenaries, after all, they have seen too many similar monsters in the past.

However, the pale skin covering the worm's body, and the pair of human eyes that "No. [-]" showed when he turned his head to look at them, defeated the group of mercenaries in a short moment. psychological defense.

"Oh, open fire—monster—"

"Shoot, come on, that guy summoned the devil—"

……

The mercenaries uttered unprecedented screams of terror.

The author has something to say: Lin Xi (shaking with fright): This, this is obviously my pet...

Alisa (shivering with fright): No, that's right, this little guy is Lin Xi's pet——

Bryce (also trembling with fear); yes, pets—

"Number One" (don't know what it means but gut feeling is a good word): Pets! (#^.^#)

……

Sorian, who was duped into doubt: Ha...
