And so, after some careful thought, Lin Feng's furrowed brow gradually relaxed. He stared at the monstrous six-legged Zerg Person before him, its skin swelling and veined with blood, and asked in a deep voice:
"So, what are the terms of the deal?"
Hearing that Lin Feng was finally showing interest, the "Mother Empress" on the ground let out a taunting cackle that echoed from the air sacs in its abdomen:
"The terms I want are very simple, and very easy to satisfy…"
"I'm not asking you to join us, nor am I asking you to betray your own kind…"
Lin Feng quietly breathed a sigh of relief. He nudged his gun up slightly, gesturing for the creature to continue.
The Mother Empress paused, its voice growing softer:
"I need you to return to that defensive line to the north and continue to halt the advance of that other Mother Empress!"
"Hold it off for at least five days or so…"
"So that I can be the first to get beneath that Great Lake."
