Chapter 96 Zerg Junk Planet 1
Jiang Ping opened his eyes and shook his left hand.
Oh wait, is it the left pincer? Or the forelimb?
He could only receive the original owner Tony Ping's memories with a grim face.
The original owner, Tony Ping, was a scavenger from Sector C of Junk Planet 998.
The insect's body looks like a walking crayfish.
The insect is 30 years old and 185cm in length. It is a disabled insect that has not been able to find a reproductive partner.
Other insects on the garbage planet were also crippled, but not to the extent that the original owner suffered.
Don't ask her why the Zerg also have garbage planets and scavenging; she doesn't know either…
As for where the humans are? Tonypin has no memory of them.
Tony Ping was born on a garbage planet, and his father Jack Qiang and mother Jenny Zhang were also scavenging insects.
Ten years ago, the two insects chose to part ways amicably, leaving the large shed to Tony Ping before leaving Area C.
Unlike the junk planets in interstellar literature, this one doesn't have any good stuff to be found.
The original owner's home planet, 998, was the lowest level among all garbage planets.
It's inhabited by genetically polluted disabled insects, genetically polluted plants and animals, and all that's thrown down is real garbage...
All the surviving crippled insects eat and drink by scavenging garbage and the plants and animals on the planet.
If some insect genes mutate and become incapacitated, then their fate is to be dismembered within the research planet…
These crippled insects have a short lifespan of only three hundred years and have no desire whatsoever to be sent to a research planet…
The original owner lived to be 180 years old by scavenging garbage in his previous life, but died when a sudden hot rainstorm hit a garbage planet. He was too slow and got scalded.
My wish is to live to be 300 years old, eat less junk food, and keep an eye on my insect parents.
...
Tony moved his large pincers, his little eyes darting around.
Just then, the familiar sound of insects came from outside the shack.
It turned out that the insect father, Jack Qiang, was talking to his neighbor outside the shack.
"Jack, you're back to see Tony in Sector C again! Tony's so lucky!"
"Hehe... Once Tony comes of age, Jenny and I won't have to worry about him anymore."
After breaking up, Jack Qiang and Jenny Zhang each found new partners.
Thankfully, no more 185cm larvae were born.
Every few dozen days, either Jack Qiang or Jenny Zhang would come to Area C.
To prevent Tony from being kicked out of the shack and losing his insect life.
Sometimes he would even bring Tony's little bug brother and sister along.
The conversation outside the shack stopped, and a three-meter-tall lobster-shaped man walked in.
Tony, just like the original owner, used pliers to pick things up and glanced at the insect father while twisting his shrimp head.
Jack saw that the little bug was quite energetic, so he patted its head with his pincers.
"What's the point of cleaning up a shack? Come on, your father will go scavenging with you today. Your little brother Tom Blue is waiting for you."
Tom Blue didn't come in because he was taller than the shack and could only stand outside the shack area.
Fortunately, he only grew tall and not smart, otherwise he might already be studying stars.
After being slapped by the insect father, Tony Ping felt a sharp pain in his shrimp head.
"Okay, I'm coming."
After saying that, he quickened his pace.
He put the stored grain from the shack and the nutrient blocks that Jack had brought into the iron box, and then tied it to his chest.
He lifted the shrimp leg and walked out, but his mind was already convincing the system.
"Tong'er, come out and keep me company (eating garbage)."
"…I"
Don't hesitate, you only get one chance.
"Let me check the exterior..."
"Ah, I knew that the system and I were the best of friends in the world."
*
Tony Ping approached Tom Blue, tilted his head up, and took the initiative to greet him.
Tom, you seem to have grown taller again.
"Tony, you too..."
Tony Ping: ?
The 998 trash planet insectoids talking about height is the same as humans talking about the weather and eating.
Jack didn't want to join the conversation, so he grabbed their pliers and ran towards the garbage area.
Tony's shrimp head kept bumping into Tom.
Tom didn't think anything of it, assuming his brother wanted to talk to him.
He opened his mouth and asked loudly.
"Tony! What! Are! You! Trying! To! Say!?"
Before Tom could finish speaking, Jack used his other forelimbs to grab a handful of weeds from the ground and stuffed them into his shrimp mouth.
The buzzing of those little bugs in my ear is so noisy!
Upon seeing this, Tony silently shut his shrimp mouth.
...
Area C, 007 Scavenging Area.
Jack Qiang and Jenny Zhang were born in Zone C and could greet other scavengers.
He threw the worm offspring near the sewage and went to find Chen Alice to reconnect.
Alice Chen is Jack Qiang's half-sister, and she manages the 007 scavenging area in District C.
No one bothered Tony Ping, out of respect for Alice Chen.
The sewage river in front of Tony's plane has a bluish-green hue, and you can see many small fish swimming around.
The Zerg have really good eyesight...
Tom Blue pulled a folded woven bag from the pliers and began digging.
He came with his father today mainly because he wanted to eat the spicy red fruit from Zone C.
The spicy red fruit has a sweet and spicy flavor that truly captivates insects.
However, there aren't many insects that he likes to eat, and they can't be grown in Area B, so he has to dig them up himself.
Sometimes, when the original owner dug up too much, he would give it to his younger siblings to eat and play with.
Their main food source is still the garbage that is dumped.
Because of Chen Alice's connection, the original owner could come and pick up food whenever he was hungry.
So Tony Ping didn't care about the bugs when he took out his magic fishing rod.
After Jack Qiang and Alice Chen finished telling each other about the scavenging area in Block B, they started picking up some tasty trash.
...
Xiao Yi had already left with the giant spaceship that was dumping the trash.
Our first stop was the Zerg research planet.
The system roams the Zerg Star Network while also gathering intelligence.
The hot rain that caused the discovery of the garbage planet 998 was a ploy by the research planet to stimulate the evolution of disabled insects.
The disabled insects on Garbage Planet 998 are actually a form of Zerg atavism.
Many people know the truth, but they all chose to keep it a secret.
If we don't hide it, are we supposed to bring out the insects and worship them?
Who will process all that Zerg garbage and pollution?
The Zerg Queen has been asleep for a long time, and no one would be willing to treat these atavistic Zerg kindly.
They believe that the future of the Zerg should not be like that of the ancient Zerg, who devoured everything.
After all, times have changed.
Atavists are best off on garbage planets...
Once the forces outside of Star 998 reach an agreement, the Atavistic Worm will likely be in big trouble.
But that's hundreds of years from now.
Right now, they still want to find a good way to make the Zerg Queen sleep forever.
The Zerg Queen, who once led her horde to conquer several star systems, probably never imagined that the Zerg, incorporating human genes, would look like this…
War and famine are too far removed from the Zerg of this era.
Many ordinary Zerg players strongly oppose the awakening of the Zerg Queen.
...
Tony Ping thought it was outrageous.
Forget it, I'll just stay on this trash planet and be a shrimp.
Next to him, in a large bucket of some unknown material, were several small fish from a polluted river.
They're called Scaled Beasts on the garbage planet.
The original owner tried to fish it out a few days ago, but failed.
Alice Chen saw it from a distance and thought that Jack Qiang's little brat was quite lucky today.
They even kicked Jack over to cook for the little brat.
I also feel sorry for poor Tony Ping; he hasn't grown any taller over the years.
This genetic pollution is too severe; there's no one shorter than him on this garbage planet.
If I can't find a partner to have children in the future, I'll probably cry my eyes out.
