Chapter 232 Six-Winged Red Worm
Chapter 232 Six-Winged Red Worm
The large amount of mold spores in the air made it difficult for her to breathe, and she could only continue forward by covering her nose with her hand.
I don't know how long it took; it could have been five minutes, ten minutes, or an hour.
Shen Qingqing's gaze never left the murals hanging in the corridor.
The temple was filled with oil paintings depicting the Insect Queen receiving worship. Originally, there were portraits of the Insect Queens from different generations, but she ordered them all to be taken down.
Because she was in those portraits.
Shen Qingqing wasn't so narcissistic as to hang her own portrait all over the entire temple.
The murals she saw along the way seemed to depict the rise and fall of the insectoid race.
From the Zerg Queen receiving worship, to the Zerg generals wielding lightsabers in battle, to countless Zerg emerging from the darkness and being reborn.
Each painting depicts the rise and fall of a race, and each painting is so breathtaking.
Contrary to her expectations, the end of the corridor turned out to be a dead end!
Shen Qingqing saw the fluorescent green characters merge into the mural at the end of the corridor, and then, on a whim, another character appeared.
Then, under her gaze, it began to rise and float into the mural.
It seems as if they were born to be part of the mural, blending together perfectly.
The murals were dirty and hard to see clearly, but Shen Qingqing felt that there must be something unusual about them, so she stood on tiptoe to reach them.
After struggling to remove the mural, Shen Qingqing found that apart from being relatively old, the painting was no different from anything else.
But just to be on the safe side, she decided to take it back with her.
Just as she took the mural down, her eyes glanced over and she noticed a red totem-like mark on the wall behind it.
Carefully placing the mural against the corner of the wall, Shen Qingqing reached out and touched the eerie red mark.
She had never seen the pattern on it before, and there was no information about the six-winged arthropods in the various books she had read in the previous three months.
This is a Zerg species I've never seen before.
Shen Qingqing stroked the strange insect pattern, and her intuition told her that this totem was very unusual.
Fortunately, she had a good memory. After imprinting the totem pattern in her mind, she picked up the mural again and prepared to leave.
Just as she picked up the mural, her mind went blank for a moment, and when she woke up again, she was in front of the French windows where she had been before.
And at her feet lay the mural, which was indistinct.
Are there any bugs?
No sooner had he finished speaking than several insects rushed over.
"Queen Insect, are you alright?"
The leader of the insect guards looked anxious. "You've been standing by the window ever since you came back. We can't disturb you without your permission."
Still feeling a bit dizzy, Shen Qingqing suddenly opened her eyes wide in disbelief upon hearing her words, "You mean I've been standing here the whole time?"
"Yes, Queen Insect."
Dressed in a maid's outfit, Chong Shi quickly stepped forward to check on her condition, muttering to herself, "Oh dear, it's chilly at night. Standing here all this time isn't good for your health. You must take care of yourself... I'll go and call the general's doctor and the others."
"No need," Shen Qingqing said, supporting Chong Shi's arm.
"I feel okay now, it's just..."
His gaze fell on the mural at his feet, and he quickly changed his words, "I just brought back a painting that I wanted to frame in my bedroom."
"Don't worry, Queen Insect, leave it to us. You can go to sleep and see the murals tomorrow."
The painting was dirty, and the insects thought that the insect mother might have found it in some corner, so they handed it over to a professional insect to clean it overnight and return it to the insect mother.
Lying in bed, Shen Qingqing still felt a sense of unreality, turning her head back and forth as she looked at her terminal.
However, she checked the time displayed above as soon as she regained consciousness, and it was indeed the time she arrived at the temple.
Even the second was accurate, exactly the same as it was a second ago.
Is there a place where time can be stopped?
The idea was immediately suppressed by Shen Qingqing, who felt that the Zerg Temple should not be haunted.
Hugging a pillow and thinking, my eyelids started to droop.
Finally, unable to resist the sleepiness, I drifted off to sleep.
Just after she fell asleep, the curtains by the bed stirred slightly, and a pair of cold hands touched her face.
His crimson eyes were filled with longing.
That was a race that could not be called 'humanoid beings'.
Her long, neatly styled white hair cascaded onto the floor, spilling out as she walked.
It turned out that he had white hair that was over two meters long.
Behind Him were three pairs of tattered, blood-red wings!
"May my descendants protect you."
Sharp nails traced down her forehead to her lips, then to her chin, and finally to her neck, which looked so fragile it seemed like it could be snapped with a little force.
It brought not only a shiver, but also a slightly chilly feeling.
After saying that, the humanoid creature's figure gradually became transparent until it completely disappeared from the spot.
The next day.
Shen Qingqing woke up feeling refreshed.
I felt a little uncomfortable last night when I went to bed, probably because I had a fever, but the fever suddenly went down when I woke up this morning.
Shen Qingqing stretched and felt that since returning to Wangxing, her physical fitness, mental strength, and pheromone concentration had all improved significantly.
"I slept really well."
Still unaware of what had happened last night, Shen Qingqing suddenly remembered that she still needed to provide Andorra with mental healing, so she quickly washed up and prepared to leave.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw a familiar face.
Andorra wore a white short-sleeved shirt with a gray belt around his waist, exuding a lazy air. His tall and slender back was wrapped in the shirt, and his figure was faintly revealed under the bright lights.
See no evil See no evil.
Shen Qingqing quickly turned her face away and said in a muffled voice, "Why are you here? I don't think I invited you here."
The Zerg boy smiled, his face showing no trace of the disheveled state he had displayed yesterday.
Andor smiled, his gaze lingering on her lips for only a second before quickly looking away.
“Qingqing didn’t invite me,” Andor replied with a smile.
"Then why did you come?" Shen Qingqing muttered softly.
"If Qingqing doesn't want me to come, then I'll leave."
Unexpectedly, Andorra took an unconventional approach this time, and Shen Qingqing immediately grabbed his arm, "Don't go."
Andor looked at her with a smile, "But Qingqing didn't let me stay."
This Andorra… Shen Qingqing thought he had changed his mind, making such a fuss so early in the morning.
"Hmph, I can't do whatever I want."
Shen Qingqing pulled him into the bedroom.
Once inside the bedroom, Andor's gaze lingered, looking around with an air of naiveté.
"You haven't seen my bedroom?"
Shen Qingqing still found him a bit strange, "Didn't you handle the reconstruction of the temple before?"
“Indeed, I was in full charge,” Andorra replied, “but this is only the second time I’ve entered since the project was completed.”
"As the Queen Insect, I do not allow other insects to enter freely after the construction is completed, unless..."
"Unless what?"
“Unless he is the Queen’s servant, or… the Queen’s beloved pet.”
