Unexpected

Outer Domain

Insectoid Planet

The Energy Pool where Huang Rui is located has finally calmed down today. The climate of this Planet, which could have given rise to life, has now become extremely harsh.

After the restless Energy Pool finally calmed down, a black cocoon emitting a faint glow slowly rose from Energy Pool.

Then a special energy aura began to spread from the cocoon, and all the Insectoid on the Planet sensed it and looked in that direction.

Then, accompanied by a series of cracking sounds, the cocoon shattered completely, and a person with a blackish-purple body and a pair of arthropod wings appeared in the sky.

"My Overmind, she absorbs the energy of this entire Planet, and her mental talent is so terrifying. Doesn't she need to assimilate and wash away his Intelligence?"

Having appeared in the distance at some unknown time, and seeing Huang Rui's displayed abilities, the Advanced Brain Bug, somewhat alarmed, asked the Swarm Overmind in front of it.

What Huang Rui displayed filled it with fear; such powerful Mental Power was probably not much less than that of Overmind.

Moreover, she absorbed countless biological genes and the energy of an entire Planet; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call her a god.

"I know what you're worried about, but her powerful Mental Power will benefit the entire Swarm."

Don't be afraid of her human nature; she's just as close to me as you are to the other Brain Bug.

Moreover, once she is assimilated, she will lose her Intelligence and become useless!

After the Overmind finished speaking, it flew towards Huang Rui, who had already completed her transformation.

When Huang Rui saw the Overmind, she nodded slightly to him to show her Revered.

"Very good, from now on you'll be following in the Youji!" the Overmind said happily after witnessing the scene.

From this moment on, there will be no more Huang Rui in this world, only Youji of the Swarm.

At this moment, all Player received a system notification that the entire game would undergo a 24-hour update, requiring them to log off.

Old Wang, who was leading the group of Future monster hunters, was stunned when he heard the news. A monkey boss in front of him seized the opportunity and threw a punch at him.

But Old Wang didn't move. The earth-attribute Orb surrounding him stepped forward, and a yellow energy easily blocked the boss's fatal punch.

Then the red Orb stepped forward, and a burst of fiery power poured into the ape boss's chest, burning it to ashes.

After doing all this, the several Orb started spinning around Old Wang again.

After chuckling and touching each of them one by one, Old Wang addressed the Future generation:

That's all for today, back to base to wait for the update to finish!

Future hearing this, everyone quickly dealt with their opponents, returned to their base, and logged off.

"Why did the game suddenly update?" Old Ma asked after everyone logged out of the game.

"I don't know, but it should be related to the Human Alliance election!" Old Wang.

"That's true. We're about to enter a crucial stage. Who should we support?" Sister Hua.

"We are neutral; we won't get involved in this kind of thing!" Old Wang said.

"But sometimes it's not that we can simply choose not to participate; after all, we're all part of the world..." Lin Qimeng.

General Zhang had visited Old Wang more than once during this period, but Old Wang did not have a good impression of him.

Although he had given Old Wang several missions since arriving at the Homeworld Base, the clue missions and the attitude of Old Luo and the others towards him were like a thorn stuck there, making it impossible for him to open up to them.

Old Wang had his doubts, wondering if he was overthinking things or if those people were intentionally distancing themselves from General Zhang, but he just couldn't get over it.

"Let's talk about that later! Come on, let's go for a walk. It's been so long since we've gone out for a stroll!" Old Wang said, pulling Lin Qimeng's hand.

"All right!"

Others: (*￣m￣)

You two are really oblivious to everyone else!

After leaving the Club, Old Wang and Lin Qimeng didn't choose to drive, but instead walked slowly along the street.

Because of today's update, there are a lot of people on the streets. After all, it's normal for people to come out for a walk since they can't log into the game!

"What's bothering you? Is choosing sides a problem?" Lin Qimeng asked Old Wang as they walked.

"Yes! Because of the Claim the Championship, it's impossible for us not to take sides. We haven't reached the final stage yet. Once we do, those who are at a disadvantage will pressure us relentlessly!" Old Wang.

"Indeed, because we will relieve a lot of pressure for them," Lin Qimeng.

"Actually, rationally speaking, I would choose General Zhang's Neutral Faction when it comes to taking sides, because he has more than a 50% chance of winning."

But choosing him means going against the military, which I'm not actually that afraid of. What I'm concerned about is that he gives me a really bad feeling.

Moreover, all the clues I obtained from that mission point to him being the mastermind behind the investigation these past few days!

However, if we choose someone else, the blow we suffer if we lose will be far greater than any other guild could ever imagine.

I now regret accepting his mission to Claim the Championship; I've dug this hole myself!

Old Wang voiced his concerns, saying he had nothing to hide from Lin Qimeng.

"I think you don't need to worry. If you don't want to choose him, then we won't choose him either."

If we can give him an advantage, we can give others one too. You have to believe in yourself.

And even if you fail, no one will blame you; if someone does, they'll be kicked out of the guild.

"Whether we're the number one guild or not doesn't matter much to us. Don't let these things drag you down!" Lin Qimeng said.

After Lin Qimeng's words of comfort, Old Wang felt a little relieved, and then happily accompanied Lin Qimeng shopping.

Four hours later, he regretted it.

He wanted to slap himself for even bothering to go out for a stroll.

Lin Qimeng's shopping enthusiasm deeply shocked him. Even with his superhuman physical condition, he was almost unable to keep up, yet she showed no signs of fatigue.

If he had just walked or run for four hours, Old Wang wouldn't have felt this tired.

Because during this period you have to help him pick out clothes, get clothes, and evaluate the clothes, and you can't be perfunctory or tell the absolute truth.

This is just about clothes; she looks at not only clothes but also bags, jewelry, watches, cosmetics, and so on...

Old Wang felt like he had used up all the vocabulary he had accumulated over two lifetimes, but she was clearly still not satisfied.

"How about we find a place to sit down and rest for a bit, and get something to eat?"

Old Wang, unable to comment on which of the two red lipsticks he bought was better looking, changed the subject.

Aren't they both red? And such similar shades of red at that, how did you manage to tell them apart?

"Alright!" Lin Qimeng thought for a moment and said.

Then the two of them went to a roadside cold drink shop, where Old Wang finally sat down.

But just as he relaxed, he suddenly sensed something, and he pulled Lin Qimeng aside to avoid a knife that suddenly appeared in the hand of a passerby.

Seeing his attack miss, the attacker immediately tried to summon his Mecha, but Old Wang didn't give him the chance.

He pointed at the man, and a beam of blue light struck the attacker, instantly freezing him in place and killing him completely.

The people around didn't realize what was happening; they thought it was a movie shoot and instinctively gathered around.

Old Wang immediately shielded Lin Qimeng behind him, because the faint killing intent still lingered, indicating that this person had accomplices.

Just as he was on guard, he suddenly saw a man wearing a black hat walking away into the distance outside the crowd.

In an instant, Old Wang confirmed that the person was the source of the murderous aura. Then, he stomped his foot, and four earth snakes emerged from the ground to bind the person.

He immediately tried to summon his Mecha, but a clay spear pierced his back, killing him instantly.

Old Wang originally didn't intend to kill him, because he was also afraid of killing the wrong person.

However, the area where he was located was too crowded, and if he were to summon his Mecha, an accident could easily occur.

Seeing that he was about to summon Mecha, Old Wang dealt with him immediately.

The first person was frozen and didn't bleed, so the others only felt it was amazing. But the second person did bleed, and the others immediately panicked.

Chaos broke out among the crowd, but Old Wang remained vigilant. Although the murderous aura had subsided, it didn't rule out the possibility that someone might be hiding their true intentions.

"Call the police!"

Old Wang said to Lin Qimeng.
