Chapter 8

"Why didn't you cover him with a blanket?"

  Yael frowned, thinking of the shameful expression of the female insect who was humiliated during the live broadcast, and closed the curtain beside the bed to block any possible views from the outside world.

  There was a female doctor with brown hair, brown eyes and frameless glasses standing in the ward. He was checking the data on the instrument. And He looked at Yael apologetically when he heard what he said.

  "It's just for the convenience of observation... I'm sorry, Your Excellency, I didn't consider that you might be tired of this female slave's body."

  Yael paused, feeling a little puzzled. "Don't make unnecessary associations. He is not my female slave."

  "Huh?"

  The doctor asked back in confusion, "But your information has been recorded on his collar. He is indeed your female slave."

  Yael looked even more confused, "I picked him up on the road and didn't record any..." information.

  Wait, the neck ring?!

  An ominous premonition came over him, and Yael almost gasped.

  He did touch the collar on the female insect's neck to try and unlock it, but gave up when he didn't find any opening. Could it have automatically recognized him as the owner of the female and entered his information? !

  He tapped on his light brain and began to search Baidu* for the terms "neck ring" and "female slave".

  "After the male insect caresses the collar of the slave, it is considered a confirmed contract. The female slave whose information is recorded in the collar will belong to and be loyal to the male master for life... The male insect has the responsibility to provide him with basic living conditions and not abandon or abuse him..."

  He scanned the entire page at a glance and finally understood one thing -

  The female insect he rescued had become bound to him by accident, with the bond lasting a very ridiculous term of "one lifetime".

  It's like the kind of agreement that needs to be signed when adopting stray cats and dogs.

  Yael had mixed feelings.

  This was completely contrary to his previous idea of ​​letting the female insect go.

  The doctor standing nearby looked up at him and said, "It's okay if you don't want to worry about it. You have done your best by sending him to the hospital. You can leave the follow-up to us."

  "Follow-up?" Yael heard something unusual and frowned slightly, "What do you mean?"

  "Wait until the day when this female insect wakes up, and drive him out to fend for himself. Since you don't want him, the hospital is not a charity, so we will naturally not take in a seriously injured female slave."

  The doctor smiled indifferently and put the pen in the pocket of his white coat. "It's always handled this way."

  "Besides, whether from the hospital's perspective or my perspective, I do not recommend that you take him home."

  The doctor smiled slightly, looked at the unconscious female insect on the bed, and said in a deep voice, "Because he is useless."

  "This female insect's eyes are severely inflamed and infected. His right eye is almost completely blind. The bone wings on his back were uprooted and the roots are completely necrotic, the injured area is very large. Both legs were shot through by bullets containing dark star matter and then completely broken. The left leg is less seriously injured than the right leg, but it is still difficult for him to stand up again. These are the main injuries. There are also other large and small wounds..."

  The tragedy and suffering seemed to be weights, weighing heavily on the listeners' hearts. Yael pursed his thin lips and stared at the female insect's eyes as she endured the pain.

  When it came to the latter part, even the doctor who was used to seeing all kinds of scenes looked sad and sighed.

  "The worst thing is, I noticed during the operation that he seemed to have been illegally subjected to insect experiments... He has lost most of his self-healing abilities."

  The natural physical advantage of female insects is their terrifying self-healing ability, which allows them to survive for a long time on the battlefield and endure all kinds of torture from male insects.

  "He should have died just now, but he was saved by you, so he can survive for a little while longer. But more... the hospital can't do anything."

  This is already a death notice for the female insect.

  The ward was dead silent. Outside, the wind and snow were getting stronger, banging against the glass, and the coldness seeped in through every pore.

  The sound of his finger joints being pinched snapped Yael back to his senses. "Is there nothing I can do?"

  Although Yael didn't want to care so much at first, the female had been rescued with great difficulty, and no one would be willing to let him die like this.

  What's more, the female insect was marked by him by accident and became his "property" and responsibility.

  The doctor pondered for a moment, glanced at Yael, and suddenly said, "There is a way. I can't say if it can cure him, but at least it can make him live longer... But I need your cooperation."

  In addition to the huge gender differences, there are two other important reasons for the formation of the Zerg social structure.

  First, female insects go into estrus regularly every year, and without the comfort of male insect pheromones, their bodies will gradually deteriorate. This process is irreversible, and it is useless to try and stop it.

  Secondly, the female insect's mental power will become start to become disordered soon after adulthood, and the situation will become more serious as time goes by. If there is no male insect's mental power to guide it, it will develop into a riot and they will die in extreme pain.

  Although there are synthetic pheromones and mental power substitutes, the pacifying effects of male insects is still the strongest and purest, and there is no substitute.

  "We just detected that this female insect is already in the late stage of mental riot."

  The doctor's advice was, "You can give him some mental counseling to delay the collapse of his mental picture."

  "A bit unfamiliar with the process? It doesn't matter. Mental energy channeling is an innate ability of every male insect. You don't have to worry about it. The situation of this female slave can't get worse anyways."

  "Okay..." Yael looked at the female insect on the bed and his expression became serious. "I'll try my best."

  He sat sideways on the hospital bed, closed his eyes, and went over everything about mental power in his mind.

  …

  [Your level is D, and your mental power is not ideal. ]

  The worker insect in charge of the inspection looked disappointed and shook his head at the various Zergs waiting outside.

  Although male insects are valuable, the upper class has no shortage of mediocre D-class male insects.

  After that, the number of Zerg lingering around his bed decreased by more than half, and no noble family showed any intentions of winning him over.
