Chapter 190: Someone Always Has to Do These Things

10th Position of the 78th Legion.

Cai Kun and Chen An had already come outside Yingzhou's tent three times, but each time they were blocked by the Catachan Demon standing at the entrance, who would not let them disturb Yingzhou.

"How should we tell the Commander about the directive sent over by the Chief?"

Cai Kun's gaze drifted toward Yingzhou's tent from time to time, hoping that Yingzhou would come out.

"There's no helping it; we can't possibly clash with those muscular men. Their combat power is very strong!"

Chen An comforted Cai Kun from the side, while in his mind, he recalled the scenes of these Catachan Demons fighting against the humanoid Zerg. They possessed no Spiritual Power, yet relying on their own formidable physical fitness and combat awareness, they were actually able to kill a humanoid Zerg. Although that humanoid Zerg seemed to have been poisoned to death in the end, that was not important; what was important was that they were strong!

Inside the tent at this moment, Yingzhou had already finished recovering his Spiritual Power and stood up to stretch his somewhat stiff body.

"Phew, finally finished recovering my Spiritual Power!"

【Material extraction complete, points consumed.】

Hearing the system's notification sound, Yingzhou did not care about the consumed points, but instead asked the system excitedly.

"Then does that mean I can summon a Gene Primarch (Infant)?"

"Replying to the host, a reminder: once a Gene Primarch (Infant) is summoned, it cannot be retracted. Please arrange the timing of the Gene Primarch (Infant)'s appearance reasonably to avoid causing unnecessary trouble."

After hearing the system's words, Yingzhou nodded thoughtfully.

Indeed, he couldn't exactly say that this was a child he had summoned, and he couldn't even take it back.

Thinking of this, Yingzhou suppressed the urge to summon one immediately.

"Regardless, the Lord of Fire Dragons shouldn't be too hard to raise, right?"

Yingzhou muttered to himself, and then he heard the unique voice of the Catachan Demon from outside.

"I already told you, the Emperor is resting. We'll talk after the Emperor comes out!"

Yingzhou did not know how much time had passed, and since his Spiritual Power had mostly recovered, he walked out of the tent. Seeing Cai Kun and Chen An pacing back and forth with anxious expressions, he knew in his heart that these two had urgent business to find him.

"If you have something to say, come in."

Yingzhou beckoned to the two of them. This time, the Catachan Demon did not stop them, allowing the two to follow Yingzhou into the tent.

"What happened? Why are you in such a rush?"

Yingzhou sat on the blanket in the tent and said to the two.

"Commander, it's a Task issued by Chief Ji Bu of the Military District. He wants the temporary commander of the 10th Position to enter the Hatchery after the Insect Tide ends and the Zerg forces in the Hatchery fall into a state of fatigue, in order to kill the Dominator Zerg inside. If you are unwilling to go, you don't have to. Also, we are to compile the combat intelligence on the humanoid Zerg and submit it back to the Military District."

Upon hearing this news, Yingzhou frowned and thought to himself: What is going on? Why would Ji Bu ask me to go to the Hatchery to kill the Dominator Zerg at this time? I have met Ji Bu, and based on his demeanor, he doesn't seem like the type of person to make this decision, right?

"Is there any other latest news?"

Yingzhou asked again. Cai Kun said with a pained expression, "Three positions in the Sixty-Sixth Corps have fallen. It is said that there are humanoid Zerg there as well."

Yingzhou nodded. He finally understood why the Military District was so eager to find intelligence on the humanoid Zerg, but did this have anything to do with making him go to the Hatchery to kill the Dominator Zerg?

Also, if I'm unwilling to go, I don't have to? No, buddy? Are you issuing a Task or discussing it with me?

Yingzhou still couldn't figure out why Ji Bu asked him to kill the Dominator Zerg and even asked if he was willing. Could it be that he was trying to express something to him?

As someone who had watched some suspense TV shows and novels in his past life, once Yingzhou associated it in this direction, he immediately stopped this unrealistic thought.

In any case, he still had a Task, and the Task was also for him to kill the Dominator Zerg. In order to obtain a new Legion, Yingzhou had to go and kill that Dominator Zerg.

"Commander, this is the Task the Chief gave you. What do we need to do?" Cai Kun looked at Yingzhou, who had been silent for a long time, thinking that Yingzhou was distressed because this Task could not be completed.

"No need! You just need to defend the 10th Position well. Help me find a few soldiers who possess the Gray Mist ability; nothing else is needed."

Yingzhou had made up his mind and said to Cai Kun and Chen An in front of him.

"You are planning to go to the Hatchery?" Seeing that Yingzhou had decided to go to the Hatchery, Chen An said to him, "Commander, you might not know this, but once you enter a Hatchery that has a Dominator Zerg, no one can come out alive! The Chief also said that you can refuse this Task!"

Yingzhou looked at the two, who had worried expressions, and chuckled twice.

"Heh, someone has to do this Task. I am merely becoming a pioneer; don't worry. What makes Humans different from those Alien Races is that even when every Human possesses the ability to think independently, there will still be those who do things that seem dangerous. They are not afraid of death; they just want to blaze a trail for those who come after."

Yingzhou's words left the two in silence. After a long while, Cai Kun slowly saluted Yingzhou and said, "Sorry, Commander. I will go down and find soldiers with the Gray Mist ability right away!"

Chen An also spoke up at this time, "I will go help you organize the information related to the Hatchery!"

After sending the two away, Yingzhou began to organize the intelligence related to the humanoid Zerg. Although he didn't know much, it was still necessary for him to explain some of the more troublesome abilities of the humanoid Zerg.

After organizing the data, Yingzhou began to ponder how he should kill the Dominator Zerg. As the brain of a Hatchery, entering the Hatchery was no different from walking into a tiger's den. However, the Dominator Zerg seemed to rarely leave the Hatchery. He wondered if there was any data showing how to make the Dominator Zerg leave the Hatchery.

After Cai Kun and Chen An walked out of Yingzhou's tent, Cai Kun said to Chen An, "Why do you think Commander Yingzhou can go to such lengths? Why does he have to do this? I can't understand it. There were clearly better choices waiting for him, yet he chose the most dangerous one."

Seeing that Cai Kun was still struggling with this question, Chen An smiled and replied, "Didn't the Commander just say it? Someone has to do those things. Furthermore, this might just be Commander Yingzhou's unique charm. Now, the soldiers at the position all worship Commander Yingzhou!"

After hearing Chen An's words, Cai Kun did not continue to discuss this issue, but went to find the soldiers Yingzhou needed.

Watching Cai Kun's departing back, Chen An muttered to himself.

"In reality, aren't we also captivated by Commander Yingzhou's charm? He is different from other commanders; he cherishes the life of every soldier, yet he places himself in the most dangerous spot. Perhaps he feels that we would hold him back."
