A is in StarCraft, just disembarked from the Zerg Prince spaceship.

********************

......

Gao Tian sat down opposite him.

Okay, they did indeed lack a self-introduction; Gao Tian didn't even know his name.

Gao Tian knew he couldn't speak. Deafness and muteness often occur together, and judging from Lan's reactions over the past few days, Lan probably couldn't hear him clearly either.

Deaf and mute, poor thing.

Gao Tian deliberately sat very close to him, leaning forward to look him clearly into the eyes, and said slowly, "Hello, I am Gao Tian."

Naturally, Lan didn't understand what he was saying; his eyes were filled with panic.

Gao Tian recalled reading somewhere in a popular science article that many deaf-mute people distinguish sounds through vibrations. Gao Tian simply grabbed one of Lan's hands and placed it on his own throat, letting him feel the vibrations of his own throat, then repeated it:

"Hello, I am Gao Tian."

.......

*****************

.......

Blue's fingers, which were resting on Gao Tian's throat, involuntarily curled up.

Does this male insect even know what it's doing?

The female insect's strength is absolutely dominant over the male insect, especially since he is the top-tier female among the Legion's top females.

There was no Xiongbao Society on the desolate planet, and not even any other insects knew of his existence. In this situation, he pressed his finger to his own throat.

If he were to attack this male insect, his fingers wouldn't even need to transform into an insect to easily tear open its throat, rip out its trachea, and leave its corpse on a desolate planet.

Not even any insect would know that a precious male insect had died here.

His Highness the Crown Prince's aversion to males is common knowledge among the insects of the empire. This is the first time that a male insect has dared to press his hand against its own throat.

Extremely hot, extremely scalding... The arterial blood mercury surged with vigorous vitality, and the vocal cords vibrated, producing a deep echo that could be described as infrasound for the noctuid moth species.

Humans often say that a tiger's roar shakes the mountains and forests, which is because part of the sound of a tiger's roar is infrasound to humans, meaning it is actually vibrating, not just an adjective.

Now, Gao Tian's voice is like infrasound to Lan, causing his internal organs to vibrate.

He watched Gao Tian speak again and again, as if his internal organs were resonating with him, and he understood what Gao Tian was saying.

He was probably referring to his own name; his name is... Gao Tian.

He unconsciously repeated, "High Heaven."

.......

Gao Tian couldn't hear Lan's voice, but he saw his lips move. Gao Tian smiled and said, "Yes, my name is Gao Tian."

He asked again, "What's your name? What's your name?"

Lan heard him repeat it several times, and it seemed as if he was asking her name. She hesitated before answering, "...My name is Lan."

The insectoid language and the human language are not mutually intelligible, and Gao Tian could not understand his lip movements.

What to do if you can't communicate with your teammates in the same language?

Gao Tian scratched his head, looking worried.

My head is so itchy, my brain hasn't grown in yet.

Suddenly, a thought struck him! Gao Tian made a writing motion and asked, "Can you write it down for me to see? Write it down for me to see!"

If I put the words into words, then take a picture and search for it in the database, wouldn't that be enough to find my teammates' language? I'm such a genius.

Lan watched his actions and understood his words. She pulled out the light screen of the quantum computer and wrote a single word on it: Lan.

High-altitude image recognition and automatic database retrieval.

The AI ​​worked for a long time before displaying a result: it could not recognize the data.

Gao Tian's expectations were dashed. He looked up at the sky and sighed.

This situation does exist. The Human Federation has so many ethnic groups, too numerous to count. There are many small, isolated countries and ethnic minorities who live in isolation from birth to death, with their own writing systems and languages, not communicating with the outside world, and their language data is not actively incorporated into the human database.

It's not surprising to have a teammate like that. With his looks, if he hadn't lived in a secluded place before, he wouldn't have had the chance to be found; he would have been famous throughout the Human Federation long ago.

.......

Lan looked at Gao Tian searching for images, then saw that he hadn't found anything.

It's not surprising; the quantum computer he has is an antique from who-knows-how-many years ago.

He had never even seen the language and script on his personal computer before, and did not know which remote planet it was unique to.

With such a vast territory, the Zerg have countless remote planets, and it's perfectly normal for them to have one or two unique languages ​​and scripts.

Lan Yitong filled in the blanks in his mind and automatically completed his backstory.

The poor little male insect hatched from an abandoned insect egg on a remote planet.

He grew up in seclusion and found a discarded, antique quantum computer from who-knows-how-many years ago. He had never learned the interstellar common language, and didn't even know the Zerg's own common language.

His hearing development was likely delayed due to insufficient food in his childhood, resulting in a defect where he could only hear a very small range of sounds, and he couldn't hear the higher-frequency sounds of the insectoid race.

They had no understanding of the social conditions of the Zerg Empire, nor any sense of self-awareness as a precious top-tier Zerg.

Lan sighed.

Uneducated and a worthless worm, pathetic.

Blue began trying to understand the male insect's hearing range.

"Ah—" 3 Hz, no way.

"Ah—" 25,000 won't do either.

"Ah—" 2.

Twenty thousand hertz is already within the range of sounds that humans can hear. Gao Tian frowned and looked at him in shock: "A bat's call?!"

Looking at his expression, Lan understood that he could hear, but was probably at the maximum limit and felt that communication was still not possible, so she lowered it by another five thousand.

"Ah—" A dolphin-like sound.

Still not enough, lower the price by another five thousand.

"Ah—" Is that a cat meowing?

Gao Tian had already noticed that he was practicing his vocalizations. Not wanting to hear his strange pronunciation anymore, he smiled and guided his hand back to his throat.

The vibration in his throat made him feel: "Ah—"

The frequency of human vocalization is the vibration frequency of the vocal cords, which is usually around 500, and at most around 1000.

Lan stared at him in shock; his usual vocal frequency was 3—

500, there are insects with such a low vocal frequency!

"Cough, cough...a...ah—."

After some effort, I finally managed to produce a sound within the range of human vocalizations.

I'm not used to this pronunciation; it's both soft and slow.

Blue's first words were, pointing to a blue, sparkling gemstone set in his wristband: "My name is Cearuleus."

A language I've never heard before.

Gao Tian watched his lips move and tentatively asked, "Bracelet? Gemstone? Blue? What root word? The suffix uleus? The root cealus? Sky? Cearuleus, the color of the sky? Blue? Your name is Blue?"

Fortunately, the pronunciation of the human Latin word for "blue" matched the Zerg pronunciation. Blue nodded, pointed to his eyes, and then projected the reflection of the gem in the sunlight onto the ground, pointing to the dazzling blue light and repeating to him: "Kel'Lorius (blue)."

Gao Tian understood.

Although I don't know which dialect this is, as long as we can communicate, that's fine.

Gao Tian repeated his self-introduction: "My name is Gao Tian."

Lan understood what he meant and nodded: "High Sky."

Gao Tian: "..."

Gao Tian: "..............."

Gao Tian: "............................."

Gao Tian blushed.

I didn't think much of it when Lan spoke in a language I couldn't understand, but then he suddenly uttered a clear and resonant sentence...

It sounds so...so good...

.......

As Lan watched his face gradually turn red, she suddenly felt a little uneasy herself.

How strange, it feels like there are thorns growing under my butt.

What is this male insect thinking now?

Why is he blushing? What's there to be ashamed of?

Lan pulled up her collar, hiding her burning face inside.

Such a big reaction to just being called by name... and he even likes to look at insect legs...

Pervert... utterly perverted...!

......

Gao Tian didn't really think much about it.

He was just thinking about which kindergarten their child would attend in the future.

—Both he and Lan are male, so it might be difficult for them to have a daughter; they're more likely to have a boy.

Gao Tian envisions the future.

The pressure on the kindergarten affiliated with the research institute is too great.

No, no...

Let's go to the military region instead.

Boys aren't afraid of being pampered. When he grows up, we'll send him to military school, and then he and Lan can have a second child...

.......

Hehe, hehe.

Gao Tian couldn't help but laugh.

My fantasy was suddenly interrupted by a coaster that hit me in the face!

The blue-eyed man opposite them, still in a fighting stance, was on high alert!

Although the insect doesn't know what you're thinking, its intuition tells it's not a good thing.

"......"

Using two fingers instead of legs, Gao Tian climbed onto the table in front of Lan and silently kowtowed to him, saying, "I'm sorry."

......

To express his apology, Gao Tian cooked a big, delicious meal.

Ah, when he puts in the effort, it looks good.

Main dishes: sweet and sour pork ribs, roasted pork with jam, and braised pork belly.

There was also the usual after-dinner fruit salad, and this time the fruit salad was specially made into a sweet smoothie.

The braised pork belly trembled slightly, its thick, glistening sauce translucent and moist like amber under the light. The meat melted in your mouth, the rich fat dissolving instantly on your tongue, leaving behind a rich meaty aroma and a slightly sweet sauce—delicious!

The sweet and sour sauce of the pork ribs first coats the taste buds, then the teeth bite through the crispy outer shell and pull out the tender inside—oh my god, it's so delicious!

The grilled meat is marinated in fruit juice, giving it a slightly sweet taste and a hint of fruity aroma. The lettuce leaves are bright green and glossy, and the crisp leaves wrap around the fragrant grilled meat, making it refreshing and not greasy.

If you get tired of eating the same old fruit, take a bite of fruit smoothie. The crisp fruit pieces make a satisfying "crunch" sound when you bite into them, and the fresh, sweet flavor bursts out. This taste from the trees dances joyfully on your lips and teeth.

Lan ate without even looking up.

Waaah, it's not that the insect lacks willpower, but rather, this male insect, he, he, although a bit abnormal, his cooking is really delicious.

Even without a kitchen, grilled meat tastes great.

After having a kitchen, wow!!!

Who could possibly resist this?

Cough, worms...

Reluctantly...

Reluctantly...

I'll reluctantly go along with him and protect him for a bit!
