The Holy Infant of the Hive

In the Star Era, humanity’s genes have ascended and people live for ten thousand years, while naturally conceived children have become rare treasures, one in ten thousand. On the day they reach adulthood, they awaken genetic codes capable of shaking the stars.

Zhang Mo, a former interstellar general, fought to the death to protect humanity. But after a brilliant explosion, he was reborn as a naturally conceived child. Before he could celebrate, disaster struck: his parents were brutally killed, and a mysterious figure abducted him. When he opened his eyes, he found himself in the terrifying lair of the Zerg!

The Zerg Queen pinched his tender cheek and declared coldly, “The hope of humanity’s future? Perfect. I’ll raise you to become the sharpest blade that will destroy your people.”

From then on, Zhang Mo endured and kept up his disguise in the Zerg hive. He played the part of an innocent baby while secretly cultivating with all his might, vowing to one day avenge himself. He drank the Zerg’s secret potions and learned their combat techniques, honing his claws and fangs in the fires of hatred.

Until one day, he accidentally overheard the Queen whispering to her trusted aide:

“Human genes have a fatal flaw. He... won’t live past a hundred.”

“Only our race’s life-energy core can save him.”

“This little thing really thinks he can hide all those secrets from me?”

The next moment, the Queen turned and held out to him the energy core powerful enough to shake the galaxy, her voice gentler than he had ever heard it:

“Baby, time for your medicine.”

Clutching the energy core, both a cure and a shackle, Zhang Mo looked at the Queen before him, both enemy and mother. For the first time, his resolve to take revenge wavered.

This grand plan to destroy humanity, he suddenly...

And concealed behind the genetic defect and the Zerg conspiracy is a shocking secret about the lost homeworld, Earth, as well as a true crisis poised to engulf the entire universe
