I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot [BL]

1104  17.31 Fourth Violet Star - Under the Cliff

Warriors from General Nimbus' troop were sent out in their mecha under his direction. To protect the center itself, and the other half to scout the area around the Headquarters. After all, the headquarters are filled with numerous hurt pupils. Moreover, there are a few sporadic attacks from low-ranking Zergs, which fill the Headquarters building with noises and the sounds of firearms.

The other injured pupils were in the infirmary with Jace Green von Imperlian and his staff. The other three, including His Highness who faced two general-ranked Zergs, were all covered in wounds save for Kia who was restored by the elixir from that old man Oak. They were pleased that this kill had been added to their point and put them on the hunter's list. Their squad is unquestionably the top-ranked team for this tournament, even if the entire event was canceled.

They were currently concerned about Yara von Chrysalis, who was absent from their group. He was abandoned by them in the heart of the jungle. Despite the fact that he is surrounded by Sentient Plants, danger still looms over him because he is alone in the wilderness.

Even only to ask them to search Yara von Chrysalis using the security camera connected to the intelligence section, Jace Green von Imperlian exploited the authority of his family name. Yet, the recording cannot be found since the transmission is blocked throughout the entire planet. No one signal has been lost across all cameras on the specialized terminals.

They were only willing to go back to the hospital to get their wounds treated after General Nimbus assured him that Yara was well. Jace Green von Imperlian is still a monarch no matter what. No matter what, they have to keep him secure. Jace Green, who grew up among regular people, found it difficult to accept the special treatment, so he opted to enter the section reserved for students and receive treatment concurrently.

Kian asked worriedly, <nulli>"Your Highness, do you think Lord Yara would be okay on his own?"

<nulli>"Don't worry. A planet like this one which was filled with plants is like a playground for him. Everything on this Planet will protect him even if he doesn't ask for it." Jace Green von Imperlian responded.

Lennon added, <nulli>"You've seen how powerful those Sentient Beings are, right? Kiki, don't worry. Lord Yara will be okay. Take a good rest for now. The backlash was healed but the fatigue in our bodies is still there."

<nulli>"If only we could send a message right now, I would definitely tell you what happened to my Imperial Uncle. He wouldn't ignore this situation as Yara is here." Jace Green von Imperlian said

Meanwhile, in the far south...

Finally, Zephyr von Gretel and his little group identified what caused the Zergs. They discovered a zerg nest. It wasn't immediately apparent because of the environment, and it was situated near a steep cliff whose end is invisible to the unaided eye. One wouldn't be able to detect the many camouflaged Zerg on the cliff unless they extended their senses in that direction. Zephyr and his squad were nearly rendered numb and repulsed by the sheer volume of them. There were numerous zergs covering the entire cliff, some of which were disguised.

Zephyr von Gretel, the lieutenant general, is not human. It can be argued that only 25% of his bloodline is human, with the remainder sharing a genealogy with Argus Blues von Chrysalis.

From the Butterfly Race, he was born. Although they belong to the insect race, they were not Zerg. The Butterfly race, after all, is significantly more powerful than the Zergs. Furthermore, they had intelligence that was much higher than that of the human species because they were born with a glimmer of divinity.

Unfortunately, they have a very difficult time reproducing. Only Argus Blues von Chrysalis was born with the Butterfly Race bloodline, and his lineage was the purest of all. He is the God of the Insect Race, so to speak. Yet, he stayed out of the conflict between the Zerg and Human races because he didn't detest either humans or Zergs in general. Just because the first Grand Marshal became aware of him and formed an alliance with him.

Yet Argus Blues von Chrysalis was not compelled to engage in combat with the Zergs by this arrangement. He was just instructed to refrain from aiding them and given the assurance that no one would be aware of their presence and that he may assimilate into humanity as he pleased. The 13th Edge Planet was a present from the previous Emperor. Of course, everyone in the original Royal Family of the Imperium, with the exception of Cale Meijer von Imperlian, was aware of the existence of the Butterfly Race, led by the Emperor Butterfly, Argus Blues von Chrysalis.

These memories were left behind and disregarded by Ye Xiajie when he assumed control of the Grand Marshal's dying body. He wanted to give his wife his full attention and ignore everything else in this mortal world. He therefore had no interest in the earliest memories of his vessel. Cale Meijer von Imperlian was an adopted son, but the Family of the Grand Marshal had kept the Butterfly Race's existence a secret from everyone outside of their family for all this time.

Old age claimed the former Emperor and former Empress. Caesar Mitchell von Imperlian declined to occupy the throne after he returned to the Imperium Star in poor mental condition. As a result, the family of Cale Meijer von Imperlian rules as the Royal Family.

Zephyr von Gretel realized he couldn't handle the predicament on the cliff alone. Even though he has little trouble taking out a king and queen Zerg, he is unable to do so while being attacked by so many Zerg. He is only effective in one-on-one or group combat; not in battles involving millions of people.

<nulli>"Lieutenant General, what should we do?"

<nulli>"We've investigated and found children imprisoned inside. Are we going in for a rescue?"

<nulli>"Fuck! They are treating humans as livestock. Lieutenant General, we must save these children!"

Zephyr von Gretel didn't immediately answer. He is formulating the finest strategy for this kind of scenario. His subordinates decide to remain mute and wait after observing him earnestly considering the matter. Lieutenant General Zephyr von Gretel had always been the leader of their group in previous battles or wars that their troops had participated in. He was even heard by General Nimbus von Gretel.

<nulli>"I want a warrior with the fastest speed to return to the Headquarters as soon as possible and report everything we've seen on this cliff to my husband. The rest of us will go incognito, you wait outside and I will blend with the children below." Zephyr von Gretel said.

<nulli>"Lieutenant General! You can't, that's dangerous! This is a Zerg's Nest!"

<nulli>"We cannot let you do it, Lieutenant General. The General will definitely kill us!"

<nulli>"I am your superior on the field. Right now, you will listen to my orders. This is a command!" Zephyr von Gretel stated. Making his subordinates who were not agreeing to his plan, shut up.

<nullb><nulli>Silence~

Zephyr von Gretel looked at the sole soldier whose mission was to return to the Headquarters to report to the General about everything that happened here. He gave a black box to the man and said, <nulli>"Personally, give this box to my husband. He will understand once he sees what's inside. Leave now, I gave you a bit of my qi to prevent anyone or anything from noticing your presence."

<nulli>"I vow to complete my duty, Lieutenant General Zephyr!"

Zephyr von Gretel nods his head and says to the soldier,<nulli> "Go."

Zephyr von Gretel turned to face the other officers once the soldier left. They could kind of tell what their Lieutenant General was attempting to achieve because of the redness in the corners of their eyes. Though they were aware he wouldn't change his mind, they still wanted to say anything to stop him. Children were in fact the ones who were in danger. If they had known how dangerous this precipice was, there is no way they could have left these kids here without feeling guilty.

<nulli>"Lieutenant General... you..."

<nulli>"Don't worry. Even after death, there is life. You guys already knew I was not a purely human right? I will be able to return alive. Don't worry. Bring out your Mecha and put them on stealth mode. I will send the children out and you guys will bring them back to the Headquarters as much as possible."

<nulli>"Yes, Sir!" Lieutenant General Zephyr von Gretel progressively shrunk and transformed into a youthful teenager who resembled a freshman student as the soldiers beneath him all saluted. His attire also altered, going from a military uniform to a regular shirt and pair of slacks.

Zephyr von Gretel said, <nulli>"Once all the survivors had been brought out, leave immediately. No need to eat for me." He jumped off the cliff in front of everyone's eyes and disappeared into the depths of the dark tunnel underground.

The region below the cliff is completely dark, with no light at all. The Zerg Race has the ability to see more clearly in both light and darkness, which is even a problem for lower-ranked Zergs. In one of the spaces under the cliff, there are innumerable webs and cocoons.

Guarding this location are zergs in the form of cockroaches. The people that the Zergs grabbed from above ground are within this cocoon.

The pupils congregated in one section, where some of them were cocooned in what looked like silk because they had been selected as the Zergs' next meal. They were either dead or alive, nobody knew. Several of the students gathered in the corner included some well-known names. Among the students taken prisoner were the Second Prince, Christopher Klein von Imperlian, and his fiancée, Silvan von Rosegard.

Nevertheless, the other members of their squad were absent, leaving just the two of them. As the Zergs arrived to take them captive, they may have been killed. After all, the students that were brought back alive and captured were those of A to S strength. Those who were weaker than that were all either slaughtered or eaten alive; some may have managed to flee, but the number of kids who died cannot be discounted.

The Second Prince was now embracing Silvan von Rosegard. Recognizing them, some pupils hid them among the other kids. After all, they are royalty, and the majority of them have received training from their clan to revere and guard the Royal Family.

With a pallid face, Christopher Klein von Imperlian said. He clearly has more injuries than the others. Silvan von Rosegard was leaving the team when they were assaulted by the Zergs, and he was caught off guard. But in truth, Silvan's brain system was to blame for their current situation. Silvan von Rosegard, his current host, whom he had brainwashed, was responsible for the team's capture by the Zergs.

He deliberately set up Silvan von Rosegard's capture by the Insect Race and transportation here because he believed that something in this location had the potential to make him stronger. Who would have imagined that Silvan von Rosegard would awaken from his mind control before he could get what he wanted? The Second Prince had to carry him about after he went into a coma.

But because he is dear to Christopher Klein von Imperlian, he puts his life in danger to defend Silvan, who was knocked out during the combat and lost all of his subordinates; they were eventually caught and transported over here by the Zergs.

The Second Prince gazed at his unconscious lover who was being held by him. Silvan von Rosegard screamed in agony that one time in the forest before he abruptly fell unconscious and didn't awaken for a while. Yet, Christopher Klein von Imperlian made every effort to keep him safe.

The gentlest gaze in the world beheld Silvan's sleeping face as Christopher Klein von Imperlian gazed at it. Even though his touch was gentle, as if he were holding a delicate jewel in his arms, he brushed the dust from his face.

<nulli>"I will protect you in this life. Regardless of the consequences and the sacrifice. My beloved, Silvie." Whispered Christopher Klein von Imperlian as he gave a soft kiss on Silvan's forehead.
