Five Frozen Centuries Chapter 335 - The End of the World

Chapter 335: The End of the World

The Zerg Empress was controlling the diplomat. She was talking to Wei Huo through the diplomat. She desperately needed to figure out the problem. Otherwise, she would not be able to eat or sleep.

The Empress asked, “Why did you stay on this planet?”

Wei Huo said, “Because I want to witness the destruction of Earth and use it to improve my realm.”

Upon hearing Wei Huo’s words, the Empress believed him even less. She knew very well that if the planet was destroyed, even a peak Legendary creature would not survive for long. A peak Legendary creature was a DemiG.o.d, but it was not a real G.o.d.

The Empress was unwilling to give up. She felt that she needed to stay and get Wei Huo to talk to her. Wei Huo did not chase her away either. He was also very approachable.

The Empress started asking Wei Huo more questions. “What have you done for the past 50 years? What happened on Earth?”

She had observed the sudden tsunami 50 years ago as well as the high temperature. However, she did not know what had happened, nor did she know that an underwater world was hidden in the sea. She could not imagine that there was a terrifying Mythical creature like a gluttonous snake on Earth.

Wei Huo started telling his story, which was very long. He had experienced a lot over the past hundreds of years.

The Empress listened quietly. At first, she wanted to obtain some information. However, gradually, she was attracted by Wei Huo’s experiences. Everyone’s life was exciting, and Wei Huo’s life was even more so.

The Empress would never have these experiences. The diplomat under her control kept listening. In the beginning, she was standing and acting respectfully. However, gradually, after getting familiar with Wei Huo, she became braver.

Because her body had been created by imitating the human body, she needed to eat and drink while listening.

At that moment, the chef of the Zergs appeared and delicacies were brought over. The Zerg chef who appeared had eight arms. He did not use a kitchen knife, as his arm was a kitchen knife.

Wei Huo, who was surprised, asked, “Do the Zergs have chefs?”

A table made of gold was placed in front of Wei Huo. There were bowls and chopsticks on it. The Zergs had studied humans thoroughly over the past 50 years.

The Empress said, “Of course. Humans have a human culture, and Zergs have a Zerg culture.”

Wei Huo asked, “What’s your culture like?”

The Empress started talking with a.s.surance. She told him a lot of things. The culture of the Zergs was similar to that of humans. For example, eating was something that all races had to face as long as they needed to survive. Food was a very important thing. Over time, it would become a part of culture.

Soon, the Zerg chef served a feast for Wei Huo and the Empress. There was a plate of colorful dewdrops, each of them as big as a fist. They did not seem to conform to physics theories, so they would not shatter if one lifted them.

The reason was that there was a special membrane on the surface of each dewdrop that prevented the liquid inside from flowing.

The Empress picked up a dewdrop and stuffed it into her mouth. She bit it with her teeth and the membrane broke. The liquid inside it flowed into her mouth.

A look of enjoyment appeared on the Empress’ face. It seemed like dewdrops tasted very delicious.

The feast continued to be served. Apart from the beautiful dewdrops, there was also some b.l.o.o.d.y food, such as torn thigh meat, and some weird green liquid. In short, the Zerg diet was quite weird. However, as long as one got used to it, one would not feel anything.

The interaction between Wei Huo and the Empress gradually grew longer, and the initial unfamiliarity slowly disappeared. As Wei Huo did not put on airs, the Empress eventually stopped being afraid of him.

It was as if they had become friends that could talk about anything. There were not many people who could communicate with the Empress in a normal tone like Wei Huo. After all, she was the Empress who led the Zergs.

One day, the Empress asked Wei Huo, “DemiG.o.d, do you know what it’s like to have children?”

Wei Huo replied, “I don’t know.”

The Empress said, “I’m the Empress of the Zergs. From the moment I grew up and became an adult Empress, I’ve never stopped reproducing. It’s as if giving birth is the same for me as eating and drinking for humans. It’s very normal. From then on, I have shouldered the mission to revive the Zergs. However, the universe cannot accommodate me. The Zergs are known as one of the four terrifying races by the other intelligent lifeforms in the universe. That’s why I’ve been avoiding pursuit ever since I was born. To this day, I have yet to meet a person who can communicate with me peacefully.”

Wei Huo fell into deep thought. One of the four terrifying races? The peak Legendary old Atlantean had also said that humans were one of the four terrifying races. Perhaps this was a form of address for races with tremendous potential and destructive power.

The Empress said, “If only I were an ordinary Zerg. That way, I would only need to fight on the battlefield and not think so much.”

Wei Huo looked at her. It seemed that, just like with humans, phrases like ‘the poor envy the rich, and the rich envy the poor for their easy life’ also applied to the Zergs.

As the Empress was grumbling, the ground started trembling slightly. The clouds in the sky turned into fish-scaled clouds one after another. However, there were also black snake clouds among the fish-scaled clouds. These clouds were like black snakes and were extremely pitch-black. They were very conspicuous among the fish-scaled clouds and looked really weird.

These weird black snake clouds covered the world. The entire sky was covered by the black snake clouds, which looked bizarre.

Wei Huo said, “The magnetic field has changed.”

He could feel that the magnetic field on Earth had undergone a strong change. Due to the influence of the magnetic field, the clouds in the sky had also become weird. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for the wind to blow the clouds until they reached this state.

The Empress felt it as well. She also felt a huge pressure, as if doomsday was about to arrive.

Wei Huo said, “It’s not too late for you to leave now.”

The Empress was stunned. Was what he had said true?

She had forgotten what she was there for in the past few days. She only realized now that Wei Huo had told her on the first day that Earth was about to be destroyed!

The Empress asked, “Are you not leaving?”

Wei Huo said, “I said that I want to use this opportunity to comprehend Death and break through to the Mythical stage!”

The Empress fell silent. She suddenly felt an indomitable aura coming from Wei Huo’s body. Wei Huo had been approachable in the past few days, but whenever his goals and decisions were involved, she felt that he became distant. He was the only one walking this path, and no one was supporting him. No one believed that he could do it either.

This was true loneliness. He did not feel lonely, but others thought he was lonely.
