The Doomsday Lord: Starting as a Insect Queen Chapter 998: 366: Gemini Royal Family

Capítulo 998: Chapter 366: Gemini Royal Family

Starry sky, civilization boundary, Ming’e Building 09077 outer space, makeshift spaceport

Lunning, as usual, ended his break with a cup of herbal tea recomnded by a friend, and returned to the high tower in the makeshift spaceport.

The high tower in front of him stood upright, extending all the way beyond the life shield of the spaceport. The top of the cylindrical tower was in the shape of a disc, offering the best view of the whole spaceport.

Unfortunately, the spaceport was not a place of scenic beauty.

In every direction, there was nothing but an endless starry sky and a lifeless tallic expanse of the star port.

Even the planet below was just a large, barren rock, its minerals already extracted and surface scarred.

Even soone like him, who once loved warships and the starry sky, had long eroded all enthusiasm in the daily grind of work, let alone that there weren’t even many ships docking on an average ho planet day.

Nevertheless, that was a good thing, at least there weren’t many ships to dispatch, and he could slack off most of the ti.

Recently, he was striving to learn, trying to pass the primary Extraordinary Nutritionist certification so he could resign from his current job as a ship dispatcher and take up a more respectable occupation, leaving this godforsaken border mining planet.

It would also provide a better environnt for his wife and their child, who was soon reaching the age for school…

As he stepped into the tower elevator, his leg muscles instinctively tensed. The next mont, the elevator started, and the gravity on his body seed to multiply, yet he stood firm.

Beep—

The elevator doors opened automatically, revealing the all-too-familiar dispatch room.

The circular transparent observatory was surrounded by arc-shaped electronic control platforms.

With its configuration, this command tower could host dozens of people working simultaneously for larger dispatch tasks, but clearly, this star port did not need that many people.

Usually, only one person was on shift here.

Lunning even thought that if it weren’t for the fact that ships still docked here to resupply and it was a node in the vicinity, his job might have been cut.

Typically, it was just him and two coworkers taking shifts here.

As it was now, only one of his colleagues was here, huddled behind the control platform, laughing relentlessly.

Judging by the look, he was probably watching those virtual idol videos again…

Recalling how he was like that not long ago before deciding to make a change, he said nothing more.

So ti ago, he had urged his colleague to change their fate together, but all he received was ridicule.

Lunning shook his head, helpless, and walked to his workstation, skillfully opening his dispatch program. Seeing no ship docking applications, he pulled up a new interface to continue reading from where he left off.

“For minors new to the Extraordinary, the nutritional needs vary with different age groups and the current level of exposure to magic power, among other factors…”

Lunning chewed over the knowledge, familiar yet sowhat unfamiliar, occasionally thankful that his academic performance back then was satisfactory. Although it was challenging now, it wasn’t impossible for him to learn.

“Hey, is that Lunning studying again?

Why study now? Haven’t the channels to rise been monopolized by the Transcendents long ago?

I told you once when you got brainwashed by that fan club guy, what about Lord Fanmao’s stories, wasn’t it sothing called mind, ah yes, mind chicken soup!

All lies!

Effort is a privilege of the Transcendents; we ordinary people, no matter how hard we try, it’s useless, better to enjoy now…

Hey, why don’t I find you after your shift, and we can grab sothing at Old Ford’s?”

The colleague, looking experienced, patted Lunning’s back, a complex and murky look in his eyes.

In truth, he wasn’t sure what he was thinking, whether he genuinely cared about Lunning or feared his colleague would surpass him, wanting to drag him down entirely…

Lunning couldn’t agree with this colleague’s theories, but neither did he refute them directly.

If he were younger, he might have refuted outright, but now, life had smoothed his edges, teaching him that directly opposing others ant he couldn’t work well here.

With no alternative plan, rashly resigning would only plunge his family into hardship.

“No, I plan to check after work…

go ho to spend ti with my child. I think you ntioned yesterday too…”

Lunning was about to reveal his plans truthfully, but ultimately changed it to a more fitting reason.

“Ah, right, you reminded , my kid’s coming to see today, I better head back quickly, let’s et another day!”

Finally sending him off, Lunning breathed a sigh of relief.

As his colleague said, the idea had originated from a recent encounter with a self-proclaid Fanmao fan club mber.

The lady, though a Transcendent, was unlike the others, not lofty but conversing like a friend, making her feel particularly approachable.

However, there weren’t many topics shared by a Transcendent and an ordinary person, and soon the conversation turned to Fan Mao, who dominated the current online mainstream, promoting Fan Mao’s kindness and contributions to the starry sky.

For the first ti, Lunning gained such an in-depth understanding of this high-tier powerhouse who had been a long-discussed topic for him.
