I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot

Chapter 331: 8.58 First Blue Star - They eat humans!

Seeing Feng Wu let Zhi Yue approach him, is proof enough that this young man is indeed someone that serves their little brother Feng Jing. After all, Feng Wu is an aloof type. He would never initiate something like approaching someone. He would only stand in the side waiting for his master, Feng Jing to give him orders. He is like a background character and was silent in nature making it hard for others to approach him. Unless you are used to him or someone he knew, Feng Wu would choose to ignore you all the time.

”Yue? Why are you here? Whereʼs the lord?” asked Feng Wu as he frowned a bit.

Zhi Yue answered, ”Lord Jing? He is with the marshal. The Lord found the Marshal and me at the place we are hiding. Those zergs in the mansion are having a meeting with another race when the marshal blocks the attack to allow his person to escape.” Pointing at Xue Ying, ”He had fallen into a state of mania and it was worse than the first time. Lord Jing has to stay behind and help the marshal purify his soul domain.”

Xue Yingʼs expression finally turned serious when his Marshal was mentioned.

”Howʼs the marshal? Is he okay?” asked Xue Ying worriedly as he felt that it was his fault that the marshal had to block their pursuers alone just to let them escape.

Zhi Yue answered, ”At his mania state, he couldnʼt even recognize Lord Jing so. Moreover, Lord Jing asked me to tell you that everything will be fine and that they would return tomorrow.”

”Wait! You said Brother Sirius canʼt recognize Xiao Jing. Is Xiao Jing planning to force a connection between them but he is still too young to receive a permanent mark!” screamed Feng Yang as his eyes turned red in worry and disbelief.

The young man who was tasked to become a messenger, Zhi Yue could only lower his head and said, ”But Lord Jing says that it would be dangerous to let the marshal be in that mania state longer. After all, he took a direct hit from the enemies which caused him to fall into such a state. He couldnʼt even control himself and doesnʼt recognize his own. Unless his mania was purified as soon as possible, he might end up being a real madman.”

Hearing this everyone in the tent turns silent and tension rises in the area. Feng Yang walked away without saying a word and Bai Yuyan had to follow after him. Xue Ying had no face to stop his cousin as he knew that one is his younger brother and the other is his future brother-in-law. For Feng Yang, compared to Marshal, Sirius feels that Feng Jing is more important than the former. But unfortunately, his younger brother had already made his choice and had no other choice but to inform their parents ahead of time.

Zhi Yue said, ”D-Did I say something wrong?”

”No. Just tell us what happened,” said Feng Wu.

Xue Ying sighed and sat back in his chair and motioned for the other two to come to sit with him. 

”Zhi Yue. Please tell me every single detail of what happened after we took our leave. I didnʼt even notice that you were with us that time.” said Xue Ying.

Zhi Yue said, ”I was in invisible mode all the time as Lord Jing ordered me to protect the Marshal without letting the others know. Iʼve been with you guys right from the start and Marshal Sirius knew about me.”

Feng Wu backs up his stories, ”Yueʼs existence is an absolute secret. No one in the Feng Clan except for Lord Jing and I knew about him.”

”I see. No wonder AʼYang didnʼt know you. I believe you are someone who works for Xiao Jing since Feng Wu had testified for you. Can you tell me the details now? Youʼve said that youʼve met the zerg royals with another alien race. Which race was it?” asked Xue Ying.

”Siren Race. He looks like a pureblooded one as both his hair and eyes possess the shade of the sea. I heard one of the zerg princes calling him Siren King.” answered Zhi Yue.

Xue Yingʼs expression turned dark after all the Siren Alien Race is quite popular. There are few of the races outside their Empire that possess beauty unparalleled compared to humanʼs standards. But what is frightening about this race is that they could control soundwaves and be almost undefeated in water.

”Are the insect zerg allying with the other alien race? Why is that?” mumbled Xue Ying.

Feng Wu said, ”I heard the Sirens are carnivorous. They love human meat the most.”

Zhi Yue cursed as he felt shiver all over him, ”Darn! They eat humans!!!”

Xue Ying spoke, ”If even the aliens are making an alliance, why are they targeting the human race? Is it because we are weak or is it something else.”

”Itʼs because they saw us as a delicious delicacy,” said Feng Wu.

Silence ascends in the ten when Feng Wu spoke some truth that almost everyone doesnʼt wish to believe is true. No one would want to hear that someone is targeting you as they treat you as nothing more than fodder to be eaten. 

Xue Ying with a dark expression on his face said, ”We should inform the Interstellar Federation about this!”

”You canʼt! There are some spies within the ranks of the federation. This is why Lord jing told me to work for the Marshal to help him find the enemies. If you inform the federation right now, they would know that we already know about their alliance and might attack ahead of time without us making any preparation for it.” said Zhi Yue.

Xue Ying was once again stunned with what he heard while Feng Wuʼs expression remained void as if he had nothing to do with this kind of situation. For Feng Wu, this kind of situation isnʼt really something they wouldnʼt mind. Zhi Yue is only acting as he was doing his role as a messenger who shares some information about the current events within the interstellar world.

”There are spies in the Upper Echelons of the Interstellar Federation?! Is it Marshal Janus?” asked Xue Ying.

Zhi Yue replied, ”No. Not Marshal Janus but... He and Martial Sirius are being targeted instead. As long as one of the two had fallen, the overall strength of the human race would decrease. This is why no one is interfering when Marshal Janusʼs relationship with Marshal Sirius turns grim.”

”B-But how... arenʼt the zerg race which could turn human rare? Would they even send those pureblooded royal class zergs to act as spies on our planet!?” asked Xue Ying as his tone was full of disbelief.

Feng Wu commented, ”They do not need to send their purebloods. There is another way for the zergs to have a human body. Parasitism, they just need to occupy the brains of a human chosen for a host and they would take over its body.”

”Once the brain of the humans was eaten, the human itself would be dead instantly, they cannot be cured or healed anymore as they are already dead,” said Zhi Yue.

Xue Yue said, ”Is there a way to point out if a zerg is occupying a human body?”

”Well~ itʼs not that there isnʼt but it wasnʼt invented yet. For this, you need the help of my lord and the little one called Solaris Vega,” said Zhi Yue. ”After all, if there is a gadget that can be used to find parasite-type zergs, only those two can create it.”

Feng Wu said, ”Plus you need to have a conversation with Marshal Janus. The remaining marshals plan how to capture or kill all the spies.”

”I canʼt decide for those. For now, letʼs wait for the Marshal to return with Xiao Jing. They would take the lead in the war for this planet to. Our satellites detected some incoming warships coming from the Zergʼs Planet. We will need to kill all of them here.” said Xue Ying. Then he looked at the two young men in front of him. They werenʼt even full pledge soldiers but have to fight in the war against zergs as they had no other choice if they wanted to live. ”Those zergs would at least take a day to arrive on this planet. You guys should take a rest for now.”

Zhi Yue and Feng Wu nodded their heads and understood that Lieutenant General Xue Ying was not ending their conversation and that they were free to return to their tents to sleep. After bidding a farewell to the two young men, Xue Ying covered his aching head, his mania was only under control thanks to the help of his younger cousin but since he doesnʼt have a guide his spiritual domain isnʼt completely purified. Now that his mind is full of things and was getting stressed about his control over qi had started getting chaotic once again.

Xue Yingʼs eyes were slowly tainting with a crimson color while the throbbing pain in his head had once again resurfaced. He held his head as he groaned in pain as he fell on the floor tormented with a madness that he had felt from before. This second wave is more torturous than the first one, at this moment Xue Ying finally understood how important a Guide is to a Sentinel like him.

ARRGGGH~ʼShit! This pain again?! This sensation is completely different from physical pain, it is a pain directed to my soul itself.ʼ

Trembling and weakened, Xue Ying still forced himself to sit properly on the floor and entered a meditative stance intending to take control of his mania. But the tormenting pain within his head is too much to bear even for an experienced soldier like him. To stop the sounds from coming out of his mouth, Xue Ying had to bite his lips until it bleeds. The corner of his eyes started bleeding as well and was obviously on the verge out of his control.

The sounds of groans full of pain and pants from being a bit out of breath can be heard coming from the main camp where Xue Ying is. To soothe himself even for a moment, Xue Ying had no other choice but to spread his pheromones around to inform those outside of his situation. 

Grrrr, ~ groans~ Arrggghhhh!!

Last moments of Xue Yingʼs thoughts before falling into the state of mania completely.

ʼFuck this! Iʼm losing consciousness once again!ʼ
