The Cat and the King [Interstellar]

Ding Dong caressed the pendant hanging around his neck. In two years, apart from learning to machine armor, he still knew nothing about his life experience and where Ren was. It seems that the only one who doesn't know is himself.

"Ren, I will definitely win, and I will go to you when the time comes." Looking at the ceiling, Ding Dong said to himself.

In two days, in order to restore as much physical strength as possible, Ding Dong found the pharmacist of the research institute and soaked himself in the medicine for up to eight hours a day. The fatigue of the body slowly disappeared. Tomorrow is the time for the competition. The opponent must have prepared a countermeasure after seeing the speed of his mecha, so tomorrow's battle will not be easy.

Ding Dong was right. After learning about the strength of this elementary school student, his opponent and his mentor quickly began to study strategies. Look, all the champions will get better development, and even have a chance to meet His Majesty and become an official.

The night before the game passed quickly, and the audience arrived early to occupy seats. In previous years, the final peak battle was hard to find, and this year was no exception.

Ding Dong saw his opponent when he was waiting. He seemed to be in good condition today, and the teacher behind him was still an acquaintance of Ding Dong. At that time, he wanted to poach him to the mecha teacher of Emperor Star Academy.

"See you again, Frans."

"Yes, teacher."

The Jijia teacher has always been worried about the fact that Dingdang was not recruited to the school. If Dingdang came to Emperor Star Academy two years ago, no matter who won the championship today, it would be the school's glory, which is a pity.

"Behave well, I've always been very optimistic about you." The teacher patted Ding Dong's shoulder and said.

"Hey! Coach, I'm your student!" The contestant behind complained dissatisfied, why did the coach forget himself after seeing Ding Dong.

"What do you need to say? If you don't perform well, come back and practice on your own." You must know that compared with Ding Dong, the students of Emperor Star Academy almost have a natural advantage. They start mecha training at a young age, and all training resources are The top players in the empire even have special teachers to guide them. In such a situation, if they still lose to Frans of the Star Academy who is three years younger than him, he will definitely go back and practice more.

"Ok!"

Rhyme was also backstage, spending two days making final changes to the mech to ensure victory.

Leaning over and whispering a few words in Ding Dong's ear, Ding Dong nodded to show that he understood.

One minute before the start of the game, Ding Dong had already entered the mech, looked at the changing numbers on the countdown card, and stretched his fingers.

At this time in the royal stand, the door curtain was lifted, and a young man appeared on the stage, with a cane in his right hand and a mask on his face, but the royal logo on his chest proved his royal identity.

"Royal family!!" The crowd exclaimed. For them, seeing the royal family is a supreme honor. The old emperor is already young, and the new royal family is probably the new successor of the empire.

Ding Dong raised his head suddenly, he didn't expect the royal family to appear so early.

But it was this glance that almost made Ding Dong's mind go blank.

Even with a mask on, he can clearly know who this person is.

It was Ren who hadn't seen him for two years. He kept his promise to watch his mecha competition.

Ren in the Royal Stand had no expression on his face. He noticed Ding Dong's gaze, and then turned away from what Ding Dong could see, as if reminding Ding Dong not to be distracted.

After regaining his senses, Ding Dong realized that in just a few seconds, he had been firmly trapped by his opponent with a special chain.

"Little brother, didn't your mother tell you that you must pay attention during the competition?"

Obviously this chain was prepared for Ding Dong. Since Ding Dong moved very fast, he used the chain around the field to continuously narrow Ding Dong's moving range and force him to fight with himself.

"My mother taught me that trapped animals are the scariest creatures in the world."

Once a leopard is trapped, its ability to burst out before dying is the most terrifying, and the power of breaking the boat will destroy everything.

The leopard-shaped mech opened its wings, and each wing was a sharp weapon like a sword. The mech rotated at a high speed, using its inertia to break all the chains around it, breaking out of the siege in an instant.

But this is not the end, two cannon barrels appeared from both sides of the leopard mecha, aiming and firing instantly, Ding Dong did not hesitate the whole time.

It can be called textbook-level smooth operation.

In combat, the most rare thing is to be able to seize the fleeting opportunity, because it may only be a few seconds or even a few tenths of a second, to make a judgment and take action without hesitation, this is also a talent, often many people with rich combat experience None of them could make such a quick decision, but Ding Dong did it.

A combat ability that seems to be intuitive.

He dodged in embarrassment, but the loss of the mech was unavoidable, and the loss of the two shell pincers reached 40%.

"Hold on, mechs need cooling time, this period of time is my chance." The player from Emperor Star University told himself.

He flew up, as if he wanted to engage in melee combat, but something unexpected happened. The leopard mecha, which had already entered the cooling state, was suddenly released from the cooling state, and its body turned into a phantom. A bright ball quickly emerged from the leopard's mouth. Then fly to the opponent.

"Get out of the way!!"

But it was too late, after being hit by a solid, the wear and tear of the mech reached 80%, and it was necessary to withdraw from the game for the safety of the driver.

The audience was silent, and the winner was born. He was just a student who had just graduated from the elementary competition and practiced mech operation for less than three years.

"The future is terrifying~"

"Yeah, let alone do this level of operations at our age, it is lucky to be able to do half of it."

"Our Emperor Star Academy did not deserve to lose this match."

Several elders in the education field were talking on it.

Lime's final improved cooling technology played an important role. The reason why the mecha needs to be cooled is because the temperature is too high during use. Therefore, a few days ago Lime asked for a new type of material from his master overnight. Once released Exposure to air can achieve high-speed cooling, but it can only be used once, after which the weapon will be frozen.Ding Dong gambled once, and obviously he won.

We can see Ren.

Entering the waiting area, Dingdang couldn't wait to take off his clothes, and after hugging Lime, he rushed to the royal stand. Ren must be there.

"Don't go, accept the award!" Lime jumped anxiously behind.

"You are the same, Lime, you are the best!" Ding Dong laughed.

There were soldiers holding hands at the entrance of the royal stand, and when they saw Ding Dong, they immediately stopped them.

"Sorry, you can't enter here now."

"I'm No.1 in the competition, I can see you." Ding Dong explained, he didn't know how to explain to this group of people, what he wanted to see was not His Majesty the Emperor at all, but Ren, who was with him day and night two years ago, he must Would love to see myself.

"Sorry, No.1 needs to apply and have an invitation to see His Majesty." The guard insisted.

"Let him in." The butler said as he opened the door.

Ding Dong followed the butler into the room, which was a very dark place. Originally Ding Dong thought he would see at least two people, one was His Majesty the Emperor of the Empire, and the other was Ren, but there was only Ren in the whole room, standing alone There, it seems that a lot has changed compared to two years ago.

"Ren, you..."

"This is His Majesty the Emperor," said the steward.

Ding Dong's feet seemed to be rooted in place, and his whole body felt cold.

He has been looking for Ren for so long, but there is no news. The worst outcome he can think of is that Ren is in trouble at the border. He may be injured or even disabled. His right-hand man, but Ding Dong couldn't accept the result now.

Ren didn't leave, he had been in Emperor Star to be his emperor, but he had never returned home once.

"Ding Dong." Ren said, he waved his hand to let the butler go out, calling Ding Dong in a gentle voice, but the little leopard took a step back, he was not even sure if the person in front of him was Ren.

"Come with me." Ren put on his hat and held Ding Dong's hand as he passed by, just like he did two years ago.

Arriving at the royal mansion by car, Ding Dang's eyes never left Ren, he faintly noticed that Ren's lips seemed to be pale when he appeared in the sun.

What the hell happened in two years.

The royal mansion was not much worse than that dim room, except for a little sunlight leaking in from the windows and the lit candles, the surroundings were completely dark.

"Sit down, I have prepared your favorite snacks." Ren smiled.

Exquisite refreshments were placed on the table in front of Ding Dong, and Ren sat down beside him.

"I haven't lived here for the past two years, I have undergone a year of surgery."

"Surgery?" Ding Dong remembered that Ren was obviously healthy the day he left, so why did he need surgery?

"The day after I left happened to be my birthday. There is a legend in the royal family that in order to maintain their status, the royal family members underwent genetic modification. Their genes are very unstable, with high mental and physical abilities, but they are always The danger of an outbreak, the old emperor of the previous generation had an outbreak of disease on his birthday, and killed many people in a frenzy. I think you have seen it when you were in the laboratory. My mental power is very disordered, and it is on the verge of an outbreak. At that time, I didn’t know that this legend was true, until my mental strength broke out, I was knocked out by the guards who had prepared for it, and I was sent here for treatment.”

"Is there anything else going on now?" Ding Dang asked anxiously.

"It will be fine for the time being, but I can't be exposed to the sun for too long. The sun will make my mental power active and easy to explode." Ren said these things calmly. Obviously, a year has taught him how to adapt.

"The old emperor is dead, I killed him, he is my uncle, the royal family has been adhering to the almost terrible sacrificial ceremony these years, using the blood of the previous generation to cultivate the next generation, he killed me in a mad state I lost my parents and my unborn younger brother, but I was the strongest, and I defeated him and killed him in a fit of anger and madness, and took the throne. I have never seen you, but I hope you live a good life , Don't be affected by these things, it turns out that you have grown up very well." Ren touched Ding Dong's head, just like before.

Ren said it very easily, but if you think about it carefully, if these things erupt in a short period of time, how terrible the blow to a person's spirit will be.The betrayal and departure of relatives, killing his uncle with his own hands, knowing the truth about the murder of relatives, and being forced to sit on the bloody throne, all of these were borne by Ren alone, without mentioning a word with Dingdang.

After a long silence, Ding Dong finally spoke.

"I thought you brought me out of the wild star and made me believe with all my heart that you are two-way. When I am the most helpless and pitiful, you accompany me, and I can also accompany you when you are in pain. So when I knew that my existence could comfort you and put you to sleep, I was very happy, but now I know that you are not willing to tell me when you are in pain, even if you don’t leave me a signal.”

Ding Dong stood up and was about to leave. He was very disappointed. Maybe even he himself didn't know what he was disappointed. At that moment just now he felt wronged and uncomfortable, just like when he was about to give all his heart to Ren, He refused without hesitation.

"Wait." Ren grabbed Ding Dong, "I'm sorry, I always thought I had no face to see you."

"I have thought a lot about the two years since I left you. I couldn't help but ask the housekeeper to collect a lot of your daily photos. The happiest time every day is when I see new photos. I long for you by my side, but at the same time I am afraid of losing you. Reason hurts you, and as time goes by, I slowly find that the original relationship seems to have deteriorated."

spoiled...

Ding Dong stood there in a daze, and what he thought of almost instantly was the relationship between Ryan and Atlantis. They were not related by blood, but they guarded each other as lovers.

"Do you love me?" Little Leopard asked stubbornly, always good at hitting straight balls.

Ren hesitated and nodded.

"Then if you become a lover, you won't hide anything from me?"

"My original intention was not to hide from you, but to protect you..."

"Then let's be together." Ding Dong's eyes were firm.

The sudden reply made Ren, who had always been serious, a little overwhelmed.

There was still an atmosphere of a big fight just now, and now we are going to be together?

"I really don't understand you." Ren laughed. He pulled Ding Dong into his arms and hugged him. The gloomy room actually felt a lot warmer. The butler standing by the door also heard Ren's magnetic laughter. Rubbing his ears, he thought he was hallucinating.

His Majesty the Emperor has not smiled for a long time.

The two most talked-about things in Emperor Star recently are that the champion of the Mecha Contest was won by two fledgling genius boys, and one of the two genius boys lived in the royal mansion and became His Majesty's guest.

Ding Dong moved into the royal mansion and waited for the past few months to go to Ren's alma mater, but he didn't expect that there was an unbelievable gossip circulating in the outside world.

Frans, who won the mecha competition, is actually an orc.

This inexplicable remark was ridiculed by everyone. Everyone knows that the orcs are weak and can only be toys for the nobles, but who is Frans? He is the one who still won the championship despite the high-intensity confrontation throughout the long competition. Possibly an orc.

After reading the comments on the Internet, Ding Dong didn't care at all. Although it was the truth, if the public didn't believe it, it was no different from nonsense. Don't care too much, but Renn paid special attention to it.

The news that Ding Dong is an orc is only known to a very small number of people. The tutor has already charged a fee for silence, and she is an honest woman. If she speaks out, it will only bring disaster to herself. The chance of her telling it out is very small. Atlans and Ryan, they have already gone far away, it is even more impossible to say this, and Ryan also believes in the character of the two, so who did this?

As secret investigations continued, the truth about Ding Dong's life experience gradually surfaced.
