Sun Bin silently closed his eyes, quietly awaiting the arrival of death.

He didn't have the courage to commit suicide, but he possessed more than enough courage to face death calmly.

He waited with his eyes closed for a good while, but nothing happened.

Suddenly, he felt something wriggling on the tip of his nose? A very real sensation, not an illusion?

Doubtfully opening his eyes, he was met with a smiling face, a girl who looked very young.

So beautiful! Could this girl really exist in reality!

The monsters around her stood behind the girl, silently, giving Sun Bin a strange sense of harmony? Clearly, they were two extremely different styles, yet they blended together so perfectly.

As if they were one.

Lin Mo smiled and spoke first.

"Hey, I'm Lin Mo, also known as the Boss Lin of Qinghong City."

Lin Mo put away the worm-like thing that was still twisting in her hand and casually fed it to a Zai Zai behind her.

"You... these are the monsters you raised?"

"They're not monsters, they're my children."

Lin Mo's tone changed slightly, but she still said it with a smile.

"..."

Children? Was it what he was thinking? How could this be... No! Sun Bin! Calm down! This is illegal!

"Why don't you dare to speak? Aren't you very brave? Didn't you say you would make me (beep) cry?"

Lin Mo said such vulgar words with a pure expression.

Sun Bin: 〣(ºΔº)〣

His expression immediately froze, and cold sweat streamed down his face. His fearlessness suddenly seemed like a joke. It turned out he wasn't so calm after all.

(.;ﾟ;:益:;ﾟ;.)

"Hey, you said that, right?"

Lin Mo tilted her head, staring at Sun Bin's expression with a smile.

"..."

"Okay, so you can't talk. I won't make things difficult for you, you can leave."

"…?"

Lin Mo smiled and pointed to the side, where the Zai Zais had made way for him.

He hesitated.

Sun Bin swallowed hard, took a deep breath, and confirmed once again that Lin Mo still hadn't made any unusual movements. Sun Bin's leg muscles tensed, causing the wound in his leg to rupture again, and blood flowed down his trouser leg.

He suddenly took a step, completely disregarding the wound on his body.

The instantaneous burst of power stirred up a cloud of dust, and in the blink of an eye, he had flown hundreds of meters away. As for the dust, of course, the Shield of Dominance was back on duty.

"Come on, let me see if you're still human."

Lin Mo's mouth curved up even higher. She waved her hand gently, and the Infected Zai Zai immediately lifted Xu Congtong high in the air. A shrill cry resounded through the sky.

It was truly heartbreaking for those who heard it.

When a person has been free from restraint for too long, they will become a Homelander. Even if their initial wishes were beautiful, they are only memories.

Sun Bin froze instantly, his right foot plunged into the ground. His feet plowed two furrows in the ground before he stopped.

He turned back in disbelief, looking at the smiling girl. Even though they were thousands of meters apart, Sun Bin could still see the smile on her face.

So… he had never broken free from his shackles.

It was still that beautiful smile, but Sun Bin didn't find it beautiful at all. He even found it terrifying!

An icy chill, as if he had fallen into a freezer, rose from the soles of his feet to the tips of his hair.

As long as Xu Congtong was still in her hands, he would not be able to escape the fate of being controlled. He shook his head helplessly and slowly walked back towards Lin Mo, limping.

Blood soaked his trouser legs, and black scabs stuck to his legs like caked mud.

One step at a time. Like a heartless walking machine, and a slow one at that.

"Hey, you're not as... um... inhuman as I thought."

"..."

Lin Mo jumped down from the Zai Zai's back, crossed her arms, and lightly supported her chin.

Lin Mo wasn't worried at all that Sun Bin would really run away. If you walked two steps in this area, you could step on Zai Zais in the ground. There was also a team of Mutalisk Zai Zais in the sky.

Besides, could a two-legged guy outrun a Lurker Zai Zai?

Don't think of Lurker Zai Zais as clumsy fellows. If that were really the case, how could they be the strongest land units in the Zerg?

Although they weren't as agile as Zergling Zai Zais, their basic turning acceleration thrust-to-weight ratio was still very high. You must know that Lurker Zai Zais can also move underground, which is extremely outrageous.

"Actually, we don't have much hatred, you know? Although that sentence was very annoying, I'm not a petty person."

"..."

Kaka tilted his little head in confusion, a big question mark floating out. The Queen wasn't petty? How could that be true?

"What do you want in order to let us go?"

Rather than a question, this was more like a routine inquiry.

Sun Bin was already desperate, or rather, he was jumping back and forth between hope and despair.

"Hey, let me think about it~"

The Zai Zais were very quiet, staring at Sun Bin, ready to kill him at any moment.

The Zai Zais never took Lin Mo's safety lightly, not even for a moment.

"Hmm~"

Lin Mo thought for a while. It seemed that there was nothing she could use Sun Bin for. His greatest use seemed to be his crystal core...

"If you give me your crystal core, I'll let him go, how about it?"

Lin Mo said jokingly.

"..."

Sun Bin was silent.

Lin Mo smiled.

"Just that simple?"

Sun Bin's hand viciously pierced his own temple, without any hesitation, as if it was the simplest thing in the world.

Lin Mo froze, watching the man fall to the ground, completely lifeless.

"It seems... I was the one who wasn't tested."

She stared at the body on the ground in a daze, her shoulders slumping in disappointment. She looked at Xu Congtong, who was still hanging in the air, gently swinging her arms in the wind.

"Forget it, I'm feeling sorry for myself again. If he's dead, he's dead. There are too many things like this. It's just the law of the jungle. The one with the biggest fist is right, is just."

She straightened her little chest again, raised her arm, and clenched it hard. She held her breath for a long time.

"Huff... Forget it, I still can't get over that hurdle in my heart."

"Kaka, bury him, and that lady too. Remember to bury her next to him. Zai Zais, don't easily set foot in this area."

I'll leave you with your last piece of pure land.

"Yes, my Queen."

Kaka could sense that Lin Mo's mood wasn't very good. After honestly agreeing, he didn't dare to cause trouble. He carefully came to Lin Mo's side.

Lin Mo quietly sat on the back of the Lurker Zai Zai with her legs together, quietly looking at the endless ruins.

The dim, fishy wind blew her long hair, covering the girl's eyes.

"Queen..."

Lin Mo smiled and waved to Kaka, signaling him to come over, but Kaka could still feel that Lin Mo's expression was a little unnatural, as if she was a little unhappy. Not as if, she just was.

"Kaka, what do you think we live for?"

Kaka: ?? Was the Queen stimulated? Did she become a philosopher?

"I don't know. Since I was born, my goal has been set, which is to find you and assist you. The goal of my Zai Zais is to protect you, obey your orders, and become the sharpest weapon in your hands."

Lin Mo's eyes showed a little light.

...

After that night, some people shed their initial gaming mentality and began to truly regard this place as a real world, a - My World!
