EROS [Zerg]

"Aphrodite, please say hello to your classmates."

Qi Ya is a teacher at the Imperial Fourth Army's affiliated middle school. Today, the principal told him that a new student had joined his class, who was said to have skipped a grade from elementary school with outstanding grades.

At first, Qi Ya was very curious about this female insect cub who was able to skip grades in school, until he saw Afdero.

The female insect stood beside the transparent glass window in the corridor, wiping her right claw with a handkerchief. Sunlight streamed through the window frame, illuminating her, and her long, platinum-gold hair seemed to radiate a vague divinity, as if it had been gently caressed by an insect god.

At first glance, Qi Ya thought this must be the female parent of that superior insect offspring, because he had never seen a female insect as beautiful as the one in front of him before.

The image of the tall, handsome, and aloof female soldier almost leaped from the page into reality.

Behind the female insect was a sub-female. Although this sub-female only grew to the female insect's shoulder, it was already considered one of the taller sub-females.

Qi Ya politely stepped forward and inquired before looking at the insect in front of him in surprise, "Are you Afudro, the student who's coming to class?"

The towering female insect in front of him, a head taller than himself, made him wonder if he had mistaken the insect for something else.

Behind the female insect was another insect that looked like a follower; upon asking, it turned out to be a nanny.

Qi Ya's newly formed image of a top student was shattered.

An adult female insect that skips grades from elementary school to middle school has absolutely nothing to do with being a top student. Moreover, she needs a nanny to take care of her daily life while she goes to school. She's basically a giant baby.

Qi Ya secretly grumbled to himself, but still forced a smile on his face, because the principal had also told him that this female insect had a very unusual background.

"Aphrodite".

Ignoring the gazes of the rows of tiny children around her, the female insect expressionlessly scanned the classroom with her peripheral vision, found an empty seat, and walked straight over to sit down.

The female insect's attitude was excessively cold, and Qi Ya could only recall that the principal had said that this female insect had a very powerful background, so he forced out a stiff smile.

Eros opened the e-book in front of him, reading at a speed that even surpassed the teacher's lecturing pace. Since leaving the Evita Laboratory, Eros had gained many supernatural abilities.

Powerful healing abilities, super memory, exceptional physical fitness, highly developed five senses, immunity to pain, and a newly formed insect personality.

At first, when he heard a strange voice coming from his own body, he thought he was just hallucinating. But the voice appeared intermittently, which made Eros realize with horror that he might be suffering from schizophrenia.

He dared not let any insects know about this. After secretly reading many books about mental illnesses, Eros clearly understood that he could not cure himself on his own.

"I'll give you the name Aphrodite, but I'll remain Eros."

Regardless of whether the other insectoid agreed or not, Eros made up his mind about it.

Kowi believed that Eros was out of touch with the Zerg society and lacked knowledge of some common sense, so he sent him to school. This was related to Kowi's experiments, but Eros didn't think it was entirely a bad thing.

At least he wouldn't have to stay in that crystal-made culture container all the time, nor would he have to stay under Kobe's nose all the time, becoming a guinea pig for those painful experiments.

Kowe implanted listening devices and controllers in Eros's eyes and organs.

Kowi knows every word Eros says and every scene he sees. If Eros does something that Kowi considers out of line, he will punish him with the controller.

Even across galaxies, the controller can achieve the effect that Kowe wants.

If Eros wanted to have surgery to remove those listening devices and controllers, Kove could immediately detonate them inside Eros's body as soon as he noticed.

Eros knew that Kove wanted him to become the real Aphrodite, and to make Eros disappear from the world.

In order to better control Eros, Kowi specially sent an insect to monitor him. Karit was ostensibly his follower, but in reality, he would truthfully report Eros's every move to Kowi.

Eros didn't understand why Kove was doing this to him. He knew there must be something about him that was attracting this crazed female insect, but he didn't know what it was. Maybe it was himself or something else, but none of that mattered to him right now.

Eros knew he needed to keep quiet and shut his mouth. He wanted to rebel against Kuwait, but he also needed to seize every opportunity to climb the social ladder.

He repeatedly told himself that he must never become Aphrodite; he could only be Eros.

The knowledge from middle school was far too superficial for him; in just two weeks, he had memorized all the middle school material.

Perhaps it was because his nucleus changed after differentiation that knowledge could be quickly understood in his mind, giving him unique insights.

So, a month after enrolling, Eros skipped a grade again.

He skipped grades from the lower secondary school to the senior secondary school, passed the examination within three months and entered the military for service. Six months later, he was admitted to the elite class of the First Military Academy of the Empire's main star.

“Afdero Istlan, S-class female insect, 220cm tall, 95kg.”

Darcy looked at the female insect standing in front of him in surprise, then looked down at the identity information in his hand.

The only social information found about this insect was its enrollment and graduation information from preschool to high school in the previous year.

However, it is worth noting that the last page of his identity information bears the personal seal of His Majesty the Insect Emperor.

Darcy felt a cold sweat trickle down his forehead as he recalled the warning the principal had given him.

Afro coldly watched as Darcy placed the information into a sealed bag and sealed it with a tape.

"I'll take you to see the principal first."

In Principal Joseph's office, Carrit smiled as he looked at Principal Joseph, who was sitting in his office chair: "Teacher, it's been a long time. I hope you don't mind that I haven't visited you for many years."

"Karrit, I really didn't expect it to be you." Joseph's expression wasn't very good.

Carit placed a letter of appointment on the table: "I am here on the orders of His Majesty the Great Insect Emperor and his loyal subordinate, the President of the Imperial Academy of Science and Technology, to collaborate with your esteemed institution on a research project, the results of which will be shared by us."

Joseph stared at Carit, unable to recall which batch of graduates this sub-female was in during his tenure, but he did have a vague recollection of Carit.

I heard from some other instructors about a female sub-female who was very talented in biochemistry but had a reclusive personality. After graduating, she went to work at the Imperial Royal Academy of Science and Technology.

"Is His Majesty the Insect King also paying attention to this matter?" Joseph's gaze fell on Afdero, who had been standing behind Carit. The familiar female insect face came into view. Everything seemed the same, yet nothing was different: "Do you know?"

Aphrodite met Joseph's gaze coldly, a faint sneer playing on his lips: "Your Excellency Dean, serving His Majesty the Insect Emperor is the meaning of our existence."
