Chapter 131 Chapter 131
The hot search terms on StarNet have gradually changed from "cub competition" to "Zerg invasion", "disaster-stricken planet", "damage situation", "Zerg conspiracy" and so on.
This time the Zerg seemed to be well prepared. Every time they invaded a planet, they would capture all the underage cubs and kill the rest. His Majesty Anima was very worried about the future of these interstellar beings. The Zerg seemed to be brewing a bigger plan.
Inside the Imperial Emergency Meeting Room:
"Everyone should know the situation now! The cubs are now the hope of our interstellar space. We must not let the Zerg succeed at any cost!" His Majesty Anima frowned and said in a loud voice.
"The only key information we have now is that the Zerg secretly abducted the cubs. The rest of their purpose is unclear!" Senate President Sir Fashrutka said calmly, knocking on the table.
"The most important thing now is the planet. Without the planet, there will be no resources. The Zerg will sooner or later swallow us up!" said the Chief Minister Li Si, looking at the people around him with different expressions.
At this time, General Gu Anyi thought for a while, maybe they missed some important information, so he asked,
"Did the undercover agent in the Zerg send back any information?"
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment at the questions asked by General Gu Anyi.
The Zerg also have their own system. Over the years, there have only been occasional minor fights. Although humans and the Zerg are still fighting tirelessly for resources and planets, they basically will not suddenly launch an attack like this time, causing them to suffer so much loss.
Everyone's eyes finally focused on His Majesty Anima.
His Majesty Anima coughed dryly with a hint of embarrassment. Not long ago, he seemed to have received quite a lot of information, such as "The Zerg Queen loves afternoon tea" and "The advanced Zerg have obtained another beautiful flower insect", which made him look a little tired.
His Majesty Anima worked hard to filter the information in his mind, and finally extracted something that he had not noticed from the pile of information.
"It seems that the Zerg Queen hasn't bred any higher-level Zerg in the past few years!" Anima hadn't heard of the Zerg Queen giving birth to higher-level Zerg for a long time. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it might be related to this.
The Zerg Queen gives birth to higher Zerg, higher Zerg give birth to higher Zerg, medium Zerg give birth to medium Zerg, and low Zerg give birth to low Zerg, and the Zerg Queen has the absolute ability to lead the Zerg.
Their super strong reproductive capacity and incomplete ability to transform into human form make the Zerg a unique race in the entire universe, which is one of the reasons why the Empire and the Federation cannot get along with the Zerg.
Let’s not talk about the star beasts for now!
When the people in the emergency meeting room heard about the Zerg Queen, they were all shocked.
How come they just realized such an important matter? If the Zerg Queen no longer continues to reproduce and give birth to higher-level Zerg, then they will not be far from extinction!
"So, the Zerg Queen's fertility has decreased? Then aren't they about to perish?" A minister said in shock with a trembling voice.
"Have you become accustomed to it? Our Empire and Federation can't produce more cubs than the Zerg! If there is any destruction, we will be the first to perish!" His Majesty Anima said coldly.
"Assuming that the Zerg Queen is truly infertile, then why are they kidnapping the cubs of our Empire and Federation? They can't kidnap them and use them as their little slaves, can they?" Chief Minister Li Si sighed.
After hearing this, everyone began to shake their heads unconsciously, and they also said they had no idea.
……
Mi Li really didn't expect that after getting out of the sticky swamp, the contestants would directly give them, the little cubs, a heavy blow.
Before Mi Li had the chance to say goodbye to her teammates, she was teleported back to the competition space.
"Hello, little cubs! I am Anxi, the main manager of the competition. Currently, due to the Zerg's initiative to provoke a war, the cub competition has been terminated! We will deal with the follow-up matters..."
Mi Li was confused. Hadn't the Zerg been quite peaceful in recent years? Why did they suddenly start a war?
She didn't continue listening to the contestants' endless chatter. She just wanted to understand why the Zerg chose to challenge her during her competition. She even suspected that the Zerg came out to target her on purpose. She almost owned a planet and became a wealthy woman!
Yes, the organizers of the competition had not expected that the new mode of the competition would catch the cubs off guard. This also resulted in the number of cubs dropping sharply to a few hundred in just over half a month among the hundreds of thousands of cubs in the competition. Mi Li couldn't help but secretly rejoice when she saw the data.
But now, hey! After working so hard for half a month, I didn’t get any benefits, and I had to fight star beasts from time to time and feed my baby from time to time!
This is such a rip-off! If the competition is terminated now, I won't even get a consolation prize.
After hurriedly getting off the star network, Mi Li sat up from the nutrition cabin.
The whole person turned back into a smaller version of himself, with short arms and legs, and even getting out of the nutrition cabin became difficult.
I really miss the long legs in the game!!!
Bubble and his parents heard the noise coming from the rice grain nutrition warehouse and hurried over.
But the housekeeper had already picked up Mi Li, who was struggling to crawl down with his short legs!
Bubble's parents were the first to rush to the door. When Mi Li saw these two nominal parents, she couldn't help but lower her head guiltily.
I was so addicted to the feeling of being an adult in the game that I forgot that I was still a little cub when I returned to reality. No wonder StarNet doesn't allow cubs to be addicted to the Internet. This may be one of the reasons!
"Baby, how do you feel? Are you okay?" Dad Bubble quickly pulled Mi Li's little hand and asked nervously.
Mi Li was a little confused. She tilted her head, with a few of her hairs drooping down after being pressed down for a long time. She thought to herself, didn’t they receive the message?
In fact, Bubble and his parents really didn't receive any information about the termination of the cub competition.
Apart from occasionally glancing at Mi Li, all their attention was focused on the Zerg invasion.
Their planet is too close to the planet invaded by the Zerg! People on the Starnet are constantly predicting which direction the Zerg will attack first.
Although most of the star citizens believe that the Zerg will not attack the Yu Yu planet, 90% of their planet is water and the Zerg have no interest in attacking such a planet, but there are also a small number of star citizens who believe that the Zerg will carry out indiscriminate attacks.
Mi Li shook her head, thinking that perhaps Paopao’s parents had never received any news.
"The game is over! All our cubs have been forced offline!" Mi Li said this slowly.
Bubble's parents' expressions became even more gloomy when they heard this.
All the contestants stopped the game, which shows how serious the Zerg invasion is.
"Mom and Dad, what happened?" Mi Li couldn't help but ask when she saw that Paopao's parents' faces were even paler than before.
Papa Papa's expression relaxed, fearing that he might scare Mi Li, and he touched Mi Li's head and said,
"Nothing happened, don't be afraid, this is all adults' business!"
There is no need for a four and a half year old kid to know about the Zerg invasion now. Telling it out loud would probably make this sensible kid think too much.
Suddenly, the vibration of the light computer in everyone's hand attracted their attention.
Mi Li couldn't help but raise the laptop in her hand and clicked it to take a look. A video that suddenly popped up almost scared her to death.
"Dear little cub family, I am the planet master of Fishy Planet, Duke Hardy Simpson. According to the issued regulations, all families with cubs must evacuate Fishy Planet and retreat to the nearest ports. All of our imperial high-ranking officials are with you!"
After he finished speaking, the video went dark and everyone was stunned.
Bubble's parents looked even paler.
Why were only the families with cubs asked to evacuate? Shouldn't everyone be evacuated? Mi Li secretly wondered.
Time stood still for about five minutes.
Bubble's parents finally recovered from the evacuation order issued in the video. One pushed Bubble and the other pushed the housekeeper, saying,
"Hurry, Bubble, go pack your things, and Butler, go help pack the cub's things. We'll set off for the nearest port right away and come back after this incident is over!"
The housekeeper moved quickly with Mi Li in his arms, and Bubble also started running quickly towards his room.
Mi Li was still in the butler's arms, confused. What was going on? Why was she forced to leave this Fish Planet right after leaving the game?
There was no time to think about it. After Mi Li was put down by the housekeeper, she directed the housekeeper to organize the things one by one. The important and useful things were directly put into her own space, and the important and useful ones were placed in the space button given to her by Paopao's parents!
As for those larger items, it is best not to take them if you can!
For two whole hours, Bubble's parents sorted out all the useful and valuable things in their entire house on land into categories, as if they were moving house.
It was the first time for Mi Li to see that so many things could be sorted out.
"Baby, have you finished cleaning up?" Bubble used a large piece of synthetic cloth to carry almost all the kitchen utensils on his shoulders, and there was a symphony of "clang clang" sounds when he walked.
Mi Li looked at this silly "brother" who was sweating profusely and couldn't bear to complain!
"Bubble, what are you doing with these things? If you take them on the spaceship, people will laugh at our family!" Bubble's father said as he sorted out the things while wearing gloves.
Bubble didn't care and said happily,
"Don't be afraid, these are the kitchen utensils that my sister needs. There are also some things my sister and I bought at the market, and some souvenirs my sister and I picked up on the beach, and some more..."
Bubble talked incessantly and introduced each item to Mi Li and Bubble's parents.
Most of them are things related to rice grains.
Mi Li was deeply moved after listening to this. This silly "brother" had actually done so many things for her without her realizing it, and even packed up so many things that they had bought when they were together.
"Brother Bubble, thank you!" Mi Li walked up quickly with her short legs and hugged Bubble's thigh.
There was no way, she was too short! She could only hug Paopao's thighs.
Bubble's mom walked out from behind Bubble's dad and watched the interaction between the two siblings with a look of satisfaction on her face.
If their little cub hadn't died, there would probably have been such a heartwarming scene!
Mi Li let go of Bubble after hugging her for just a moment. The whole house was quite big, and she didn't have many things. The only egg-shaped warehouse that had been with her for a long time had already been filled with food and kept well in its own space. Now she didn't have to worry about food and drink!
After directing the housekeeper to help Paopao's parents, Mi Li finally had some free time to see what was going on!
I returned to the room and secretly turned on the light computer in my hand and opened the Star Network headlines. The first thing on the Star Network headlines was the information about the Zerg.
Bubble's parents thought that she had never been to school, and subconsciously thought that it was impossible for a little cub to understand so many words, so they didn't turn on the cub mode of her optical brain.
As for the registration for the cub competition, there was a simultaneous interpreter from the competition organizer! I have to say, this was a beautiful misunderstanding.
When the first headline on Star Network read “explosion,” Mi Li knew she had found the right direction.
"Oh my God of the Universe! Why did the Zerg suddenly launch an attack? I'm scared!"
"Pray for the planets invaded by the Zerg! I hope the Empire's troops can return triumphantly this time!"
"I heard that a planet of the Moo Star people was almost completely wiped out. Nothing was left of them! It was just like the ancient saying 'a swarm of locusts'!"
"Many planets have been attacked! Where are the Imperial Army? Where are the Federation Army? Woohoo~ It's too tragic!"
"I was trembling with fear. Just now, the Zerg attacked directly from the neighboring planet. I saw a number of military spaceships going directly to support the neighboring planet!"
"Quack, quack! What should I do? What should I do? There are no more spaceship tickets available now! Anyone who has one can buy one to the Empire Planet or one of the nearby ones at a high price!"
"Hasn't anyone noticed? In addition to the invasion, the Zerg also kidnapped the young!"
"Just after being rescued, the neighbor's baby was playing outside and was caught in a net dropped from the sky by the Zerg! Luckily I didn't go out!"
"Oh my god, it's our empire's little cub! Just now, the screen suddenly went black during the live broadcast. I saw the Zerg with my own eyes!"
"Wow, wow, wow~ I thought it was something far away, but it's happening right next to us!"
……
Mi Li quickly flipped through the comments on the Star Network, and the most popular ones were actually all about the cubs. Combined with the fact that the owner of Yu Yu Planet suddenly sent an emergency notice to the families of these cubs today, what else could she not understand!
This is the Zerg's conspiracy against the cubs!
As for what it is, Mi Li, the new "cub", has no idea!
Now that their planet is so close to the war, it's no wonder the empire would issue such an order, Mi Li murmured in a low voice.
