Volume 1: Chapter 28: The Immortal Black Snake

　　In the icy and snowy Ursus tundra.

　　The girl put down the axe in her hand and wiped the sweat from her forehead.

　　"Huh, we've finished chopping the firewood for today."

　　She looked at the results of her one-hour work and felt proud.

　　Different from the life of luxury in the Duke's mansion in the past, this feeling of working for oneself and reaping the rewards is great.

　　In this way -

　　She can also constantly remind herself that she will not become that snake.

　　[Joining the dimensional chat group...Joined successfully! ]

　　Then, a strange light screen panel suddenly appeared in front of my eyes.

　　"?"

　　The girl blinked.

　　The light screen did not disappear.

　　Silence fills the air at this moment.

　　"Koshelna, are you up to your boring mental tricks again?"

　　After a moment, she muttered to herself.

　　"hehe."

　　A chuckle emerged in my heart.

　　"Talulah, it seems that your hatred towards me has reached the point of slandering me for no reason?"

　　The elegant yet cold voice replied.

　　“…”

　　Talulah did not answer.

　　She just glanced calmly at the strange light screen panel in front of her.

　　Dimension chat group, what is that?

　　It doesn't look like a mental trick of Koshelna either.

　　The snake's arrogance prevented him from lying.

　　In addition, thanks to her long-term confrontation with snakes, she has learned how to build a mental barrier to prevent her thoughts from being spied on.

　　"There will never be a limit to my malice towards you, Koshelna."

　　The girl said coldly as she inserted the axe into the stump in front of her.

　　"Talulah, your hostility towards me is unnecessary. The hostility of this land towards living beings is far beyond your imagination."

　　"If you have seen the endless purple waves with your own eyes, you will know that only the Ursus Empire, which has unified the land, can protect the earth from disaster."

　　The cold voice spoke elegantly and slowly.

　　"Oh."

　　Talulah did not comment on this.

　　She had never seen anything Koshelna said, and she would not believe it.

　　I will never be that snake.

　　A fighter's eyes burn with an unquenchable fire.

　　At the same time, there was movement in the [Dimension Chat Group].

　　[Ultimate invincible giant cute paramecium! : Hey, there is a new member in this group? Welcome to join the group! I am Kiana Kaslana, the second member of this group! ]

　　[Ultimate invincible giant cute paramecium! : If you have any questions, you can ask me! ]

　　Talulah glanced at the ID's profile picture—

　　That smile has a beauty that has not been polluted by knowledge.

　　【Happy Little Killer Whale: Welcome newcomer, I am Skadi. 】

　　This avatar called Happy Little Killer Whale looks very calm and rational.

　　It's just that his personality seems rather cold.

　　[Super Happy Zerg: Zerg wants to eat! ]

　　The last avatar that appeared... looked a little young, as if it was a minor.

　　[Young Fighter Talula: Hello everyone, I am the newcomer Talula, and I am glad to meet you all. 】

　　Talulah learned how to deliver messages without any instruction.

　　In order to leave a good impression on everyone, her words seemed very polite.

　　There is just one problem——

　　What is the name of this Talulah?

　　Young fighter, Talulah admitted it.

　　She also admitted that she is not a mature fighter and is still groping for her own path in struggle.

　　But this Talulah can't stand it!

　　If Alina knew, she would definitely laugh at her!

　　Then everyone in the village will call themselves that in the future!

　　Talulah couldn't bear it any longer.

　　[Young fighter Talulah: @Ultimate invincible giant cute paramecium! , how can I change my name? ]

　　To be honest, this person named Kiana Kaslana...is she a little narcissistic?

　　The girl stared at the ID that was @ed.

　　She didn't have the face to call herself that.

　　Also, if I remember correctly... Paramecium seems to be some kind of single-celled organism?

　　Why would someone give themselves this kind of ID?

　　[Ultimate invincible giant cute paramecium! :...I don't know. ]

　　[Ultimate invincible giant cute paramecium! : I think the paramecium in my name is redundant, but I can't change it. ]

　　[Ultimate invincible giant cute paramecium! : But it seems that it will change in some cases. 】

　　[Ultimate invincible giant cute paramecium! : I once saw my name become "Extremely Angry Queen" when I was extremely angry.]

　　[The Ultimate invincible giant cute paramecium! : If I could change the name, I would like to change Paramecium to a beautiful girl. 】

　　“…”

　　Talulah blinked.

　　It is confirmed that this girl named Paramecium is very narcissistic.

　　[Ultimate invincible giant cute paramecium! : Okay, I won’t say any more. I still have to go to class! Damn it, why is that Raiden Mei in the same school as me! ]

　　He is actually a student who is still in school?

　　Are you living in a moving city?

　　She couldn't help but think.

　　[Super happy Zerg: Zerg is hungry and wants to eat! ]

　　[Young Fighter Talulah: @Super Happy Zerg, I have some food here, but do you know how to send it over? ]

　　[Happy Little Killer Whale: Talulah, you don't need to ask Zerg. ]

　　【Happy little killer whale: He doesn’t understand anything. 】

　　[Happy Little Killer Whale: In addition, this group chat currently does not seem to have the ability to transfer things. ]

　　[Happy Little Killer Whale: Besides, the food that Zerg needs...maybe a bit too much.]

　　[Super happy Zerg: There's food! Zerg wants it! ]

　　Before Talulah had time to think about the words of [Happy Little Killer Whale], another light screen suddenly appeared in front of her.

　　[Super cute Zerg can't absorb enough energy. Do you want to invite him to come and feed this poor child? ]

　　“…”

　　The girl fell into deep thought.

　　Should we invite this guy named Zerg over?

　　Talulah's eyes narrowed slightly.

　　She was trained as the heir of Koshelna, so she is not an overly naive young lady.

　　"Dear Talulah, it seems that you are too tired today. It is rare that you were in a daze for such a long time." The cold voice lingered, "Is there something troubling my dear Talulah? If you don't understand, you might as well seek the wisdom of snakes."

　　"Koshelna, please don't bother to guide me."

　　If you listen to Koshelna's words, the final result will be to become an [Immortal Black Snake].

　　Talulah would rather burn herself out and become an ember of the earth than live forever as an evil god.

　　The fighter-like girl made up her mind.

　　The immortal black snake seemed to have not noticed the so-called [Dimensional Chat Group], which means -

　　This is an existence that is not controlled by the snake and is not known by the snake.

　　Maybe she could learn from it how to get rid of the snake... or even kill it.

　　The first step is to invite a being named Zerg over.

　　As his will was confirmed, the light screen in front of him dimmed.

　　Then——

　　The space began to fluctuate slightly, and some ripples appeared.

　　Finally, a dark blue portal opened before them.

　　A small figure ran out from it.

　　"Zerg wants food, and Zerg will do anything!"

　　The tiny swarm master expressed his vision very directly.

　　“…”

　　Talulah lowered her head and looked at the person in front of her.

　　Cute, innocent, flawless...

　　It was as if it was an existence that shouldn't appear on the land of Terra.

　　Because he doesn't fit in with that unfair world.

　　Especially that pitiful look, like a young animal begging for food.

　　Following his previous successful experience, Zerg tried to get food.

　　The extracted biomass had drained his energy reserves.

　　After mutating in the hatchery, the little swarm overlord can only absorb a little nutrition and energy provided by the fungal blanket.

　　But it didn't completely quench his hunger.

　　And Skadi had finished eating the food she had with her.

　　So after the new member joined the group, Zerg immediately started begging for food.

　　"Zerg, come and eat."

　　He took out some dried meat from his pocket to replenish his energy during his spare time.

　　It is a rare delicacy in the village.

　　This is just a remote village in Ursus.

　　Barely surviving under the oppression of the infected patrols and Ursus tax collectors.

　　This jerky was also obtained by Talulah herself through hunting.

　　“Ouch!”

　　The girl was slightly stunned when she felt her fingertips being licked.

　　Looking down, I met that pure and innocent gaze.

　　“…”

　　Talulah remained silent.

　　Just a hint of blush stained the tips of her ears.

　　As a young lady...the girl has never been treated like this.

　　"Zerg wants more!"

　　The little child swallowed the food in his mouth and licked the remaining food taste on his fingertips.

　　Then he said this.

　　"I still have some food here."

　　Logically speaking, this piece of high-salt jerky should be enough for the child to eat for several minutes.

　　After all, its meat is a bit hard, enough that it is difficult for underage children to chew it.

　　She swallowed it in one gulp - along with her fingers.

　　"food!"

　　Zerg's eyes lit up immediately.

　　He pulled the last few pieces of jerky out of his pocket.

　　Then, before Talulah could react, her fingers were once again immersed in some warm environment.

　　Eat quickly!

　　The girl was a little confused.

　　She had some strength after all, but even so, she still didn't react.

　　[Young Fighter Talulah: ...Zerg is here and is licking my fingers. What should I do? ]

　　[Ultimate invincible giant cute paramecium! :? ? ? ]

　　At this moment, Kiana Kaslana, who was in class, woke up from her doze with a start.

　　[Ultimate invincible giant cute paramecium! :@Super happy Zerg, spit out your finger! You can't eat your finger! ]

　　Zerg is powerful enough to bite off a street lamp!

　　She was afraid that the new members in the group might have their fingers bitten off.

　　[Super happy Zerg: Zerg didn’t suck his fingers! ]

　　[Super happy Zerg: Talulah's fingers smell like food, we can't waste it! ]

　　[Happy Little Killer Whale: I just repaired the communication equipment I found. What happened? ]

　　【Happy little killer whale: Oh, it turns out that he put his finger in his mouth, it’s not a big deal. 】

　　Putting down the repair tools she found in her hand, Skadi wiped her forehead.

　　Although Zerg's true identity is probably not the biological weapon developed by Agor, it doesn't matter.

　　She still regards him as her compatriot.

　　after all--

　　Zerg is too young.

　　His three views have not yet been formed and need careful guidance.

　　[Happy little killer whale: Just don't let Zerg bite off your fingers. ]

　　[Young fighter Talulah:? ]

　　Talulah was a little confused.

　　What kind of reaction is this?

　　Why are they not focusing on their own fingers being licked, but are instead worried about her fingers being bitten off?

　　How could such a young child bite off her fingers?

　　Looking at the little figure who squinted his eyes in satisfaction because of eating the food, the girl expressed some doubt.

　　"Haha, it looks like you've gained some unknown entity's attention, Talulah."

　　A cold voice sounded at an inopportune time.

　　"How can I kill you otherwise, Koshelna?"

　　Talulah's attention was immediately diverted.

　　Her tone cooled.

　　As expected, the [Dimensional Chat Group] is something that even the [Immortal Black Snake] doesn’t know about.

　　Then the opportunity to kill the evil god might lie there.

　　“…”

　　Zerg blinked at this point.

　　In his sight, a black snake was tightly wrapped around the girl in front of him.

　　However, the flames surrounding the girl prevented the snake from completely catching its prey.

　　But the focus is not on this -

　　Black snakes are energy-rich food.

　　The little swarm master made this judgment.

　　However, it seemed to have noticed something. The black snake that was arguing with the girl stuck out its tongue and looked at the little child.

　　"Talulah, let me see if such a young child can withstand the gift of the snake?"

　　A cold voice said so.

　　"You! Koshelna, do you still have any moral integrity?"

　　Talulah's eyes widened.

　　The flames of anger wrapped around her at this moment.

　　Attack such a young child?

　　"Honor and morality are useless to me, Talulah."

　　"The only one I care about is Ursus."

　　The immortal evil god didn't care.

　　"And you, Talulah, you can't interfere with me until you become a new snake."

　　The black snake fixed its gaze on the person who suddenly appeared.

　　He had never seen anything like it in such a long time.

　　There is no creature with such an image among the giant beasts or even the beast masters.

　　Then, there is no need to care.

　　The only ones who can fight against the undead black snake are the giant beasts and their masters.

　　"Koshelna!"

　　Talulah's eyes widened.

　　Anger was building up in my heart.

　　"If you attack him, I will take my own life immediately!"

　　The fighter girl said without hesitation.

　　This is Talulah's sorrow, but it is also her only means to check and balance the evil god.

　　The undead black snake wanted to exploit her race, but a dead red dragon was worthless.

　　"... Talulah, you really surprised me." The cold voice paused, "You are creating a weakness for yourself, which will undoubtedly put you at a disadvantage. Have you forgotten my teachings to you?"

　　"Koshelna, you..."

　　Before Talulah could finish her words, the little insect swarm master spoke up—

　　"Can Zerg eat black snakes?"
