What's wrong with being a little arrogant in the apocalypse just to support my wife?
Chapter 244 Unwilling
Noah and Cecil are both heirs of prestigious Zerg families, and the slots for invading Earth are extremely valuable, as success would make them Zerg heroes.
The difficulty level is not high, and the danger level is low, so both aristocratic families and the military are trying to compete for a spot to go.
Ultimately, the choice fell to Cecil and Noah's families, while Riva was a civilian insect chosen by the Insect King from the military to balance the power of the noble families.
Even if they lost the opportunity to lead the team, the aristocratic families still set their sights on other positions, which is why there was that useless insect who was clearly a fifth-tier worm but was still killed by Morse.
Not only were they killed, but their true nature was also exposed. The noble bodies of the Zerg were dissected by inferior humans, which was a disgrace to the Zerg.
He held everyone back, and when he returned to the Zerg planet, his Zerg family members kept demanding an explanation, while some civilian Zerg continued to speculate on the reasons for their failure on the Zerg web.
Cecil was furious at the thought of the ignorant insects on the insect network spewing insults at them, and even the insects spreading rumors about them and fabricating stories of love and hate with humans.
Insect droppings, it's all insect droppings!
They're too busy with killing experiments to even think about mating with those inferior creatures! These idiots whose minds are filled with nothing but lust!
Not only that, they were also ridiculed by the insects in the clan, who said they had wasted a great opportunity and the clan's resources, and that they were sinners of the insect race.
Cecil really wanted to smear bug droppings on these spineless bugs, to open their eyes and see if they could do any better on that planet.
On one hand, they had to guard against creatures from other planets discovering their movements, so they could only hide in the dark ocean, and on the other hand, they had to gradually invade humanity and split their camp.
They lure them into killing each other, then eliminate the higher-ranking beings without them noticing.
How many high-level creatures from the deep sea were secretly killed by them? And who absorbed all the crystal cores and supernatural energy cores sent back to the insect planet?
It's truly laughable that they're now standing on their high ground, questioning their crimes.
Noah could bear these humiliations, but Cecil could not, and the source of these humiliations was none other than those damned low-level creatures on Earth.
Cecil wielded his superpowers, and the whip marks on his shoulders were the greatest humiliation he had ever suffered since birth. Being whipped a thousand times in front of all the insects was something he could never forgive.
He engraved in his heart all the taunts, ridicule, and insults from the insects, and even lost his absolute loyalty to the high and mighty Insect King.
He spent ten years lying dormant on the seabed of that backward planet for the sake of the Zerg's growth, only to be treated like this in the end.
How could he not hate that?
"Noah, don't you hate it? Is our crushed self-esteem so cheap? Look at His Majesty the Insect King, who can decide our life or death with just a word."
"They were inside discussing how to divide up that planet, completely unaware that this was allowing humanity to grow unchecked. How were their greedy individuals any different from those of humanity, whom they considered inferior beings!"
"It's nothing more than a haughty hypocrisy, a blatant exposure; they're essentially the same."
Cecil looked at Noah, who remained silent, and smiled. "Noah, after all these years, knowing you as I do, I don't believe you're willing to accept this."
"I won't lie to you, I'm feeling quite conflicted right now. I want all those damned humans to perish, but I also want them to live. The longer they resist, the more they'll prove those arrogant and foolish insects who clamor that they could easily take them down."
Cecil's resentment had not diminished. After returning to the insect planet, he even felt that this life was not as good as when he was at the bottom of the ocean on Earth, at least he did not have to deal with so many useless emotions.
Noah lowered his eyes and remained silent, his face expressionless, but his half-closed eyelids could not hide his overflowing ambition.
Cecil is right; he can't just hand over the resources like that.
He and Cecil were different from the beginning; he never showed the same respect for their insect king as he did on the surface.
"Cecil, wait a little longer."
Noah placed his hand on Cecil's arm, dispersing his gathering power and interrupting his attempt to expose all the lurking pieces on Earth.
Cecil realized that the Insect King's mental power had been surrounding them the moment Noah touched him. Cecil was startled, but Noah shook his head at him.
Cecil instantly felt relieved. It seemed that Noah had been using his powers to disguise himself from the very beginning. At that moment, Cecil suddenly understood the rebellion hidden beneath Noah's respectful facade.
The two insects tacitly agreed to remain silent, quietly shut out of the meeting room, the noble scion of a prominent family reduced to a gatekeeper for the meeting.
The deprivation of their rights has created another rift in an already fragmented race.
Riva lay resentfully in the cramped suite she had worked so hard for decades to buy with star coins; she didn't even have a treatment pod to use.
However, these whip marks could not be healed by the treatment chamber. The thought that Cecil and Noah, the two heirs of the noble families, could only endure the same pain as her filled her with uncontrollable joy.
"Damn Cecil, damn Noah, why is it that they get to go to the meeting with His Majesty the Insect Emperor while everyone else fails their missions!"
"I wonder if there will ever be a chance to go to that ruined planet again." Riva muttered to herself as she took out several fourth and fifth-tier crystal cores from her bosom.
During her ten years on Earth, she raised quite a few low-level creatures. Moreover, the widespread epidemic that broke out after the comet landed accelerated the genetic changes of those low-level creatures.
She hunted many low-level creatures in the sea, and unlike Noah and Cecil, she did not need to return the obtained crystal cores and power cores to her family.
Everything she received was hers. It seems these aristocratic families aren't as good as she imagined. Having obtained the family's resources, she will need to give back to the family once she has the ability.
If she makes one wrong move, she will be abandoned by her family. She is not as carefree as an insect.
Riva had a crystal core in her mouth, a ferocious smile on her face. What she needed now was to obtain a high-level mental crystal core to improve her mental power level.
Riva's mind conjured up Jiang Yue's face, and her breathing grew heavier. She would let her rest a little longer until she reached the sixth rank, then she would extract the crystal core from between Jiang Yue's eyebrows.
After absorbing her high-level mental crystal core, she will be able to increase her mental power level. At that time, what difference will there be between her and Cecil and the others!
She couldn't let any insect steal the mental crystal core she was determined to obtain. For the next attack, she had to apply for a chance to go to the front lines!
She wanted to dig out that high-level mental crystal core herself!
