Chapter 231 The Corridor
Chapter 231 The Corridor
What is most important to the Zerg?
Of course, it was favored by the queen insect.
That night, the darkness was hazy, and the atmosphere was just right.
Just as Sarnster was about to do something more to solidify his position as the future Queen Consort, the Zerg insiders suddenly launched an attack.
Saenster, who was currently enjoying a romantic moment with Shen Qingqing, was clearly not happy about it.
He simply hung up the internal line, wanting to continue the conversation in more depth.
Whether intentionally or not, they actually communicated directly through the Zerg's mental link.
It's important to know that even now, their mental connection remains intact.
So that aged voice also reached Shen Qingqing's ears.
【Sarnster】
The third voice that interrupted sounded particularly abrupt.
[Sarnster, where's your special brew?! Get the hell over here!]
Clearly, the insect, having received no response, had a short temper and began to hurl insults at it.
[You never pay attention at work, and now you can't even find a bug. Believe me, I'll be the first one to shoot you when we get back!]
Sarnster: ...
"I am here, Fourth Elder," Saenster said, cutting into the link. "It was ultimately unavoidable."
[Where have you been, you little brat? Don't you know the Zerg are short-handed right now? Why are you wandering around like that? I'll...%¥@...&Y&]
The Fourth Elder, who is usually kind and approachable, has a temperament that is completely opposite to his appearance.
He had initially restrained himself because of the presence of the Queen, but now, after the Elders' Council deserted in the face of battle and the Zerg's upper echelons abandoned their posts when disaster struck, his temper has become increasingly volatile.
Now they dare to stand on the moral high ground and vehemently criticize Sarnster.
There are very few Zerglings that he hasn't insulted.
Shen Qingqing listened intently as the Fourth Elder berated Saenster, denigrated Elder Kavid, and condemned the Deskell lineage for their treachery.
[It's still early, hurry up and get your men under control! Don't let me see them getting lost again!]
Having said that, the Fourth Elder casually disconnected the link.
……
"Sarnster?" Seeing that he was in a bad mood, Shen Qingqing gently pushed his chest.
He was verbally abused and forced to work overtime; it's a miracle that Saenster didn't betray them.
"Qingqing."
"Huh? Hmm!"
A chilling breath filled his mouth, just like his usual savage and domineering style.
Not only do our breaths mingle, but the fragrance of flowers also fills the air.
Just as Shen Qingqing was about to suffocate from the kiss and was immersed in endless pleasure, the softness on his lips left.
The air, carrying the tranquil scent of roses, filled my lungs, and a layer of mist rose from my foggy eyes.
“This is interest,” he said.
……
In the end, she couldn't remember how she got back to the temple.
All I remember is that my lips were swollen and red.
It must be a broken skin. Shen Qingqing thought.
"That wretched Saenster! I clearly said I didn't want it, but he still insisted..."
As she muttered to herself, she couldn't help but blush.
She covered her face and ran to the French windows of the temple, using pure white lace curtains to cover her body, and leaned against the window to see her face reflected in the glass.
Sure enough, the skin was broken.
A small, delicate, fragile insect shadow appeared on the clean, reflective glass.
Shen Qingqing reached out to touch it, and just as she was immersed in the dazzling night view outside the glass, a bug she had never seen before appeared on the glass.
"Who's there?!"
Shen Qingqing turned around abruptly, only to find the empty corridor completely deserted.
Only the curtains, stirred by the wind, swayed gently in the night breeze, creating beautiful ripples.
Shen Qingqing was still uneasy. For some reason, she felt uneasy, as if she were being watched by something.
So, just in case, she used her mental powers to probe.
She can detect anything from all angles, leaving no blind spots; no movement within a hundred meters can escape her detection.
But the result greatly disappointed her.
There was absolutely no one nearby.
There are none within at least 100 meters.
For a moment, Shen Qingqing even wondered if she was being paranoid.
But the shadow that appeared on the glass at that time, along with those light purple eyes and silver-gray long hair.
The little girl's face was etched deeply into her memory like a brand; whenever she closed her eyes, that beautiful yet dangerous face would appear in her mind.
From the floor-to-ceiling windows to her bedroom, she didn't encounter any insectoids along the way.
"This is really strange. How come there isn't even a single Zergling?" Shen Qingqing muttered to herself.
The distance of over two hundred meters seemed endless. Places that she could reach in the past without even walking for long now seemed to stretch on forever.
Moreover, when she was about to turn back, she found that the path she had been walking on had changed. It was no longer the magnificent white and gold corridor she was familiar with, but a darker, old and dilapidated one that seemed to have weathered thousands of years of history.
Only the faded murals reveal that this was also a Zerg temple.
The wind blowing from the corridor behind me carried a dusty smell. The murals were faded, the lights were dim and dilapidated, and even the carpet under my feet was stained with embers. The colors were no longer bright and fresh, but instead exuded a musty smell.
The Zerg link is also broken.
Shen Qingqing tried to send a message to the nearest Zerg using the link, but found that no matter what she did, she could not contact any Zerg.
Are there any bugs?
The Zerg link she sent out was directly converted into Zerg text!
The fluorescent green text floated past him before flying toward the decaying end of the corridor.
The fluorescent green hue slowly disappeared from view, leaving Shen Qingqing stunned on the spot.
In such an unknown situation, it is best not to act rashly, otherwise you may easily put yourself in danger.
Even Lao Ba from the system can't be contacted.
Another of her heartfelt words drifted away, swaying in the air and floating further and further away.
Seeing all the words drifting towards the old and corrupt corridor, Shen Qingqing finally made up her mind to fight to the death.
【Where is this? 】
The words in the mental link became like bullet comments, swaying in the air for a couple of moments before guiding her into the unknown depths.
Whenever she gets tired, she stops to rest for a while before sending out messages to guide others.
The corridor had gone from being dilapidated to being rotten, with the carpet underfoot covered in dark brown stains and a thick layer of dust.
With each step she took, a subtle ripple of dust appeared beneath her feet.
The white, soft-soled leather shoes were covered in dust and cobwebs, and the hem of the skirt was tainted with a putrid smell. Shen Qingqing covered her nose with one hand and kept fanning herself with the other.
The air here is damp and oppressive; every breath brings dust and mold.
