Zerg: Seduction! A brutal and insane female Zerg dotes on me.

In Longkoda, the supreme monarchy, besides the chieftain, is headed by the high priest.

This doesn't refer to a single insect, but to the entire Nix Villa family.

He always wore a black robe and rarely appeared in public, shrouded in mystery.

Legend has it that they were chosen by the Insect God as messengers, possessing extraordinary abilities, and even the capacity to communicate with the gods.

Yan Kai was also curious. He remembered that on the first day he came, the fire behind him suddenly transformed into a flying dragon, leaping as if it had really come to life. It was the work of this female insect.

The surrounding area was abuzz with discussion; the appearance of the High Priest in the noble district was like a dream come true.

"Red hair and black robes, those are the hallmarks of the Nix Villa family, aren't they?"

"By the Insect God, isn't that the High Priest? I never expected him to be so young! I always thought he was some kind of old insect!"

"The old priest retired three years ago. How could you not know about such a big thing?"

"The High Priest rarely shows himself, how would I know?"

"Hey! Stop arguing! Look, the high priest is leading a male insect!"

"How could that be? Legend has it that the High Priest was granted miraculous abilities by the Insect God, and wasn't he said to have no mating season?"

"What country are you from, you little bug? The blessing of the insect god refers to the flames on the high priest's chest, it has nothing to do with this thing at all."

“My friend, you’re right. I was born in a military camp in the southwest, and this is the first time I’ve been allowed to return to Longkoda to participate in the sacrificial ceremony.”

"Good heavens, there's a beast tide surging on the southwestern border, and the general actually allowed you to return."

"The leader has made all the necessary preparations. Rest assured and trust the leader."

“That’s true. You should take a good look at the High Priest’s amazing abilities later, and then travel around. Longkoda is not the same as before. He can easily go to a den of iniquity and touch a male insect or two.”

"Hahaha, I just went there yesterday, it's much more convenient than before!"

In the past, female insects never had such a free-flowing time to speak. Now that they are in charge, they have no more scruples about what they say.

As Qiong approached, many of the noble insects recognized him.

"I remember now, isn't this the male insect from the auction before?"

"Let me put on my glasses and take a closer look. Wow—it really is the one the chief bought. I didn't expect it to be given to the high priest."

"This little boy was so cute, I really liked him back then, what a pity."

"You old codger, you dare to steal insects from the chief? I think you're tired of living."

"Forget it, that's the High Priest's insect now, so just give up on the idea!"

As the sounds around him grew increasingly unrestrained, Xiu frowned slightly and swept his cold gaze around them. The insects who had been watching the show all turned their heads back, not daring to look at them again.

Qiong's mind wasn't on the insects around her at all. She was holding the female insect's hand, hooking and scratching it one by one, as if she couldn't get enough of playing with it.

Xiu was inexplicably glad that his sleeves were wide enough to completely conceal his little movements. He endured it for a moment, then tightly clenched his restless hand, staring straight ahead as if he were completely unaffected. However, Lian Feng seemed to be working against him today, as she whipped her long hair that fell across her cheeks, unexpectedly exposing her bright red ear tips.

Joan's smile deepened, and she moved even closer to his side.

Feeling the familiar spiritual energy attack, Xiu's steps faltered for a moment.

The sensation on his body hadn't completely faded, as if deliberately reminding him of the madness he had with the male insect before coming here, and how he almost missed the sacrificial ceremony because of a moment of weakness.

Such a basic mistake had never happened to him before.

Xiu glanced at the male insect laughing carefree, a subtle hint of affection appearing on his otherwise expressionless face, and he pursed his lips helplessly.

It's often said that beauty can bewitch even the most foolish, and that's absolutely true.

Harwick seemed to recognize the high priest as well, and when he saw him leading the male insect over, he craned his neck and his face showed no sign of shock.

He beckoned Yan Kai and Elijah closer, and the three of them huddled together to share gossip.

"It's really strange. Our newly appointed high priest is said to have some kind of male-phobia. Today, he actually appeared in the noble district with a male insect on a leash, and without even wearing a hood!"

You should know that the High Priest family serves the Insect God and has always lived in seclusion. Apart from recognizing this outfit, I have never seen his true face.

"Tsk tsk tsk, this is really blinding to my 24K titanium alloy insect eyes! Having a male makes all the difference... Wait, do you think this could be considered a different way of asserting dominance?"

Harwick rested his chin on his hand and, as he spoke, began to express his own envy.

Everyone has a little male insect, which made him a little itchy.

Yan Kai looked at the male insect beside the high priest and felt it looked familiar: "What number was he at the last auction?"

“Hey, I remember this one, it’s number 8. This male insect has a special identity; it’s a young male from the Bazel family.”

Harwick stopped, quietly raised a finger, and poked the noble district across the way. He continued, "See those female insects in white robes? That's the Bazeya family. I once heard the female father say that they aren't native to this place, but immigrants who migrated from the east of the rising sun."

The extreme north is a unique place, and we are able to survive in such extreme weather only because we have the protection of the flames on our chests. Of course, insects with S-rank or higher talents are all the insects of the Insect God and are a different story.

Their family is incredibly powerful; although they don't possess fire, they are unaffected by harsh weather regardless of their rank.

"East of the rising sun?"

Yan Kai vaguely remembered Harwick mentioning it, but the place names and people here are all very difficult to pronounce and remember.

Harwick nodded: "Yes, I told you before that they live on the easternmost edge of the Black River, and the legends about this tribe are very mysterious."

Yan Kai thought to himself, what else could be so amazing about this?

"Do they really have precognitive abilities?"

Harwick shrugged: "I don't know about that. That's what the rumors say, and the Bazeya family rarely associates with outsiders."

“Yes,” Elijah suddenly said seriously, “Prophets do exist. Every race exists in the world for a reason.”

Yan Kai, intrigued by his words, asked, "How so?"

Elia carefully considered his words before slowly speaking: "I once saw a detailed record of this mysterious tribe in the East of the Sun in an ancient book."

They worship the sun god, are believers in light, and every 500 years a prophet with divine will appears.

In their Sun Temple, there is a book that records the events seen by each prophet.

The most famous of these is the fact that the Zerg continent experienced three major disasters. Later scholars have found that both the time and location of these disasters perfectly match the records in their ancient texts.

The first was a starfall billions of years ago that occurred across the entire Zerg continent. The stars self-destructed, and fragments fell into the Black River, causing genetic mutations in all Zerg people and bringing countless species to the brink of extinction.

The second time was ten thousand years ago when the far north was shrouded in eternal darkness. When the light returned, of the more than three million insect people in the far north, including the surrounding tribes, fewer than one hundred thousand survived.

The third was the Western Island a thousand years ago. They originally stood on the sea, but were submerged in a tsunami that lasted for several weeks. At that time, the entire insectoid continent was ravaged by floods, resulting in more than ten years of famine. They had no choice but to move to the present-day Atlantean Islands to rebuild their home.

Most importantly, the book also contained a page detailing events that would occur in the near future, with a landmark pointing directly to the entire Zerg continent, known as: the Zerg Plague.

Upon hearing this, Yan Kai felt a sudden, inexplicable tremor in his heart.

Insect plague, insect plague...

The Longkoda coup, the change of power, and the slaughter of male insects—that's the insect plague.
