cadet

That night, because Lin Yuan was worried about his father's accident, he didn't fall asleep after waking up. When he got up in the morning, he had a pair of obvious dark circles under his eyes, which Caesar noticed at a glance.

On the way to the classroom, Nishizawa couldn't help asking: "What's wrong with you? Didn't sleep well last night?"

Lin Yuan hesitated for a moment, and said softly: "I had a nightmare last night and woke up in the middle of the night. I was worried that something would happen to my father, so I sent him a message... But until now, I haven't received any reply."

Lin Yuan looked up at Caesar, and said worriedly, "His communication device has been unable to connect, could something really happen?"

Caesar was stunned for a moment, seeing Lin Yuan's uneasy expression, a bad premonition floated in his heart.

But at this time, Lin Yuan was already nervous enough, he had to calm down.Thinking of this, Caesar pressed Lin Yuan's shoulder lightly, and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, go to class first, and I will contact my father after I get back at noon and ask him about the details. Perhaps the marshal is on the front line with The Federation is at war, and the signal of the communicator may be affected."

Seeing that he was going to be late for class, Lin Yuan had no choice but to nod, and walked to the classroom with Caesar.

With four classes in one morning, the time seems to be very long.

The strong uneasiness is like the dark clouds in the sky, weighing heavily on my heart and lingering.

Although Lin Yuan was listening to the class, he couldn't understand what the teacher was talking about at all. In his mind, the scene of video calling his father before he set off repeatedly appeared in his mind, as well as the back view of his father leaving him when he was four years old...

The life and death of the close relatives are unknown at this moment, Lin Yuan's heart seems to be tightly tightened by two hands, and the worry and anxiety even make him restless.

The teacher on the podium noticed Lin Yuan's abnormality and asked him to get up several times to answer questions.

Lin Yuan was distracted and his answers were a mess. As the monitor of Class 1 of the Conducting Department, he was always the hardest-working and most serious student in the eyes of the teachers. This was the first time he was so abnormal.

After school at noon, Instructor Irene called Lin Yuan to the office alone worriedly, looked at the pale young man in front of him, and asked gently: "Lin Yuan, what happened? Why do you look so bad?"

Lin Yuan pretended to be relaxed and smiled and said, "It's okay, I didn't sleep well last night."

Seeing that he didn't want to say more, and it was hard to force questions, Irene changed the subject and said, "About the nomination of outstanding students, I asked you to collect the votes of the students. How is the progress?"

"Oh...the collection is over." Lin Yuan took out the summary results from his pocket and handed them to Irene.

As the class monitor, Lin Yuan has always made Irene feel at ease in handling affairs, and the tasks assigned by her were completed in one night.

Irene opened the summary form, and roughly estimated the statistical results - 50 students in the class voted, Betas almost all voted for Lin Yuan, and some Alphas also voted for Lin Yuan, Lin Yuan had an advantage of 37 votes At the top of the list, more than Irene expected.

It seems that the students in the class have more and more recognized this Beta boy as their class monitor.

Irene smiled and said, "According to the results of the voting, you must be the one who selected the outstanding student of the year in our class. I am now submitting an application with the teaching department. The honorary certificate and scholarship are estimated to be issued next month."

Lin Yuan nodded, "Thank you instructor."

Different from the first-, second-, and third-class scholarships that are evaluated based on performance, this kind of outstanding students selected by voting only has one place in each class, which is very precious. This honor is not only an affirmation of the student's performance, but also considers the student's popularity in the class and With comprehensive abilities in all aspects, it was a very happy thing to be able to win such an award, but Lin Yuan drooped his head, and there was no trace of joy on his face.

Such good news can't make him happy... What's wrong with him?

Looking at Lin Yuan's back with his head bowed and going away, Irene couldn't help thinking distressedly: Could it be that something happened to this child's family?

Irene's guess is not groundless, Lin Yuan's grades have always been good, his personality is cheerful and optimistic, and he has never heard of any problems with his relationship. His mood is so low, there is only one possibility - that is his family .

The reason why Lin Yuan was depressed was indeed because of his father Luo Sen.

※※※※※

At this moment, Caesar was in the bedroom, secretly talking to His Majesty Trand.

"...You mean, the marshal entered the wormhole in the Iswell universe, and his whereabouts are unknown?"

Caesar was undoubtedly shocked by this news.The marshal has led the Legion of Glory invincible all these years, and has almost never made a mistake. How could he step into the trap of the Federation Legion this time and be forced into the cosmic wormhole?

Thinking of Lin Yuan's downcast look, Caesar's heart ached even more—if something happened to the Marshal, how could Xiao Yuan bear it?Their father and son just met each other not long ago, and Xiao Yuan respects his father so much...

Trander looked at the heavy expression on his son's face, and after a long time, he said, "Lin Yuan, keep it a secret for now, the military department has not announced the missing of Rosen, and Drew has already led the Long Snake Legion to set off. Nameixing, the Glory Legion will do their best to find Rosen's whereabouts, and it's not too late for you to tell Lin Yuan when the matter is settled."

Caesar nodded cautiously, "I know how to do it."

Trande was silent for a moment, and then said: "Your school system reform, you will have a holiday in more than a month, right?"

Caesar said: "Well, the first semester will end in May, and the exam schedule has also come out."

Trande said: "Don't go back to Cepheus after your vacation, and accompany Lin Yuan around. You have been staying in the capital all these years, and you should also go around."

Caesar was stunned for a moment, his father suddenly said this, which made him feel a little confused.

Looking up at Trand's deep eyes, Caesar still nodded and said, "Understood, Father."

Only then did Trand smile with satisfaction, and cut off the video communication.

At this moment, Caesar suddenly heard a knock on the door, put away the communicator, turned around and opened the door, and saw Brian standing at the door with a serious face, Caesar asked, "What's the matter?"

Brian walked around him mysteriously and walked into the house, closed the door behind his back, and said in a low voice: "My father's communicator has been shutting down, and I can't get in touch with my father... The communicator at home is completely ignored. Have you heard of any movement in the military department recently?"

Caesar lowered his voice and said, "General Drew left for Nameix this morning. As for Uncle Berg, I don't know."

Brian said suspiciously: "My dad rarely travels far away. It's so strange that he can't get in touch..."

The two were chatting when they heard a knock on the door.

When I opened the door, I saw Snow standing at the door, glanced at Brian indifferently, and said, "Brian, where are my things?"

Blair immediately walked up to him with a smile and said, "It's in the bedroom, I'll get it for you now, don't worry, I won't lose your things..."

After finishing speaking, he took Snow to his bedroom to move things.

Snow asked Brian to help bring back a human skeleton. They were studying anatomy in the medical school recently, and each sent a 1.7-meter adult skeleton model to let the students recognize every bone in the human body.

The human skeleton model imitated by special chemical materials is very realistic, and every bone seems to be taken from a human being.Brian carried the big black bag into Snow's bedroom, and unzipped it just to face the skull in front of him. Brian took a step back, touched his nose in embarrassment, and said, "Cough, Snow, you Can you recognize all the bones in the human body now?"

Snow nodded lightly and said, "Yes."

Brian felt a chill down his back——

His own Omega is really amazing, if he dares to provoke him in the future, he will skin and dismember himself with a knife, the method will definitely be clean and neat.

Brian leaned over flatteringly, and gently put Snow's hand behind his waist: "Touch it, what kind of bone is this?"

Snow rolled his eyes at him: "That's the lumbar spine."

Brian asked cheekily and earnestly, "Which lumbar vertebra is it?"

Snow frowned, walked up to Brian, carefully counted his fingers on Brian's back, and lightly touched his sacrum for confirmation, before saying with certainty: "It's the third lumbar vertebra. ..."

Raising his head, meeting Brian's smiling eyes, and realizing that he was actually "hugging" Brian on his own initiative, Snow's ears turned red, and he hurriedly pushed the shameless person away, and said coldly, "Go back to your room Go, I'm going to take a nap."

Brian went back happily, touching his waist while walking, still feeling the numb feeling of Snow's slender fingers gently stroking his back just now.

When Lin Yuan returned to the dormitory, Caesar was waiting for him with the door open.Lin Yuan walked into Caesar's bedroom, closed the door behind his back, and asked eagerly, "Cesis, have you spoken to His Majesty?"

Caesar walked up to Lin Yuan, put his hand lightly on his shoulder, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I just asked my father, the Legion of Glory has successfully occupied the federal military base on Namei, and the Federal Army has already retreated." Yes. Because the two sides blew up the space station on Namei during the battle, causing all the communication lines on Namei to be damaged, the Marshal probably did not receive your message."

...Is it because the space station communication lines were blown up?

Facing Caesar's serious eyes, Lin Yuan felt relieved, and the disappointment on his face was replaced by a smile, "The Legion of Glory really won?"

Caesar said with certainty: "That's right, the military department has received the news."

Lin Yuan soon became energetic, "Great! It seems that I was overthinking. It turned out that the communication line was blown up! The Legion of Glory has never lost before, and this expedition will definitely go smoothly. Yes Now, communication should be restored soon, right?"

Cizer paused, and said, "The space station is seriously damaged, and it may take a month to fully repair it."

Lin Yuan nodded, "Then I'll wait for a month. The space station was completely blown up. The battle must have been fierce. I don't know if my father was not injured..."

Caesar stretched out his hand, stroked Lin Yuan's hair lightly, and said softly, "Don't worry, Marshal is fine."

Lin Yuan couldn't help but smile, "It's fine!"

Watching the expression on Lin Yuan's face change from the loss and frustration before to the excitement and joy at this moment...

Caesar had a smile on his face, but felt uncomfortable in his heart.

His little monster believed him so much that he had to lie to him.Because I couldn't bear to make him worry, and didn't want to see him sad, so I made up this lie that "the communication line was blown up"...

a month...

The military department gave the Legion of Glory only one month to search for the whereabouts of the marshal.

Caesar really hoped that after a month, the marshal could stand there and talk to Lin Yuan properly, and Lin Yuan could happily call him father.

I hope that the most important family member in Xiaoyuan's mind, and the military general he admires the most in his mind, can return safely.

※※※※※

An unknown planet in Pavo, inside a cave.

When the first ray of light shone into the cave, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon.

Ling Yu fell into a deep sleep because she was too exhausted last night. When she opened her eyes under the light, she found that there was another person in the bed——

Rosen was sleeping next to him, eyes opened by the motion of his turning over.

The two looked at each other, the distance was too close, even their noses were almost touching, Ling Yu hurriedly sat up in embarrassment.

This bed was Rosen's single bed in the Black Dragon lounge. It was not very big. Two men lay side by side with only an arm's distance between them. If they turned over a little, they would touch each other's body.

Ling Yu felt that her calf was sticking to him, her trousers were rolled up, their legs were almost naked, the heat from the man's powerful leg muscles made Ling Yu's ears feel slightly hot, Under the warm blanket, there is also the pleasant smell of pheromones from the Alpha next to him...

Probably because the estrus is approaching, Ling Yu suddenly became very sensitive to the smell of this alpha pheromone.

Ling Yu immediately turned over from the bed, found her military boots and put them on.

For Luo Sen who silently squeezed into the bed to cover him with a quilt, Ling Yu couldn't blame him... After all, this is Luo Sen's bed, and it's lucky for the two of them to survive in the wild. Mood to care about.

When I walked to the entrance of the cave, I found that the black dragon was standing there calmly basking in the "sun". The light energy conversion system in the S-class mecha can convert various light into energy for the mecha. Obviously, the black dragon saw the bright light outside. , Immediately ran out responsibly by himself to eat the light.

Rosen's highly intelligent mech is more diligent and responsible than its master.

Ling Yu glanced at Heilong, thinking of the replica that had accompanied her for many years, she still felt a little sad.

Heilong seemed to understand his thoughts, his golden eyes flashed, and he took the initiative to say: "General, don't be sad, that mecha sent me a message before it jumped out of the escape pod, I can Sensing its thoughts, as my duplicate body, it is the most honored thing for it to be awakened by you and stay by your side for so many years... It is gone, and in the future, I will regard you as my second master."

Ling Yu: "..."

As the mech with the strongest air combat capability, Black Dragon has a calm and steady personality with an intelligent personality. Even when comforting people, he still has such a cold and indifferent voice like memorizing a textbook.But Ling Yu couldn't help feeling warm in his heart. He looked back at the black dragon, and said softly, "Thank you for your comfort. Although it is a clone, it is my best friend... I know it will go away at ease. This is enough."

Fortunately, the mecha doesn't feel pain. Even if it is crushed into pieces by space shocks, it doesn't feel any pain. Its intelligence is destroyed in an instant, and it returns to nothingness in the vast universe.At the moment of destruction, the mecha left with peace of mind because it saved Ling Yu.

Heilong stretched out his hand, wanting to imitate his master and pat General Ling Yu's shoulder to express comfort. After reaching out, he realized that his hand was a little too big, so he retracted it calmly and said, "You're welcome."

Rosen: "..."

Standing behind and watching the scene of Ling Yu chatting with Heilong, Luo Sen couldn't help but slightly raised the corners of his lips.

Heilong actually learned to be close to Ling Yutao, and he deserves to be his most loyal mech.

Putting away his smile and walking to Ling Yu, Luo Sen looked at the black dragon and asked, "How is the energy reserve in your body?"

The black dragon replied: "With the absorption of the energy stone and the conversion of light energy, the energy reserve in my body has recovered to 30%."

Rosen thought for a while, then turned his head and said to Ling Yu, "A space transition between galaxies needs to consume 5% of the energy of the mecha. To return to the Empire, I don't know how many times I have to jump, and I don't know what dangers I will encounter on the way. ...We'd better let the black dragon set off when the energy reserves reach 100%, so that even if there is danger, there will be enough energy to deal with it."

Ling Yu nodded, "Okay."

Rosen glanced at the endless green jungle in the distance, and said: "There should be some caves like this in this forest. I'll take the black dragon to find out if there are any other energy stones. You wait for me here... or go together?"

Ling Yu thought for a while and said, "Let's go together."

Rosen smiled slightly, "Let's eat something first, to replenish our strength."

The two went back to the dining table and sat down, taking out a few packs of compressed biscuits.

While chewing the biscuits quickly, Ling Yu raised his head to look at the sky outside the cave from time to time, and when he was finally full, he couldn't help but ask, "Do you think the light outside is a bit strange?"

Rosen glanced at the sky outside, nodded and said, "It's really strange. The light on the capital star of Cepheus is very similar to the sunlight in the ancient Earth era, but the light on this planet has a kind of The light green, I thought it was because there were too many green trees in the forest at first, but after careful observation, I found that the light itself is green."

Ling Yu got up and walked to the entrance of the cave, looked into the distance, and said: "This kind of light is different from the white light mixed with red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple and seven colors on Capital Star. It should have a wavelength between 560 and 570 nanometers. A turquoise light, a monochromatic light."

Ling Yu looked back at Rosen and said seriously, "Long-term exposure to monochromatic light has caused the plants on the planet to mutate. Have you noticed that the trees in this forest are particularly tall and dense?"

Rosen walked to his side and said in a low voice: "Yes, the light and plants here are very strange. I just recorded the time. The time when the light outside the cave was on was four o'clock in the afternoon. We landed at one o'clock in the morning. Here, for thirteen hours, this planet is full of dark night without light, and the so-called day with light will last for an unknown amount of time."

Ling Yu frowned slightly, "The alternation of day and night light should be related to the satellites around the planet. The speed of this planet's rotation is still uncertain... Anyway, in this completely strange place, it's better to be careful."

The two looked at each other.

Only then did Rosen say: "Let's take the black dragon together, don't get separated."

Ling Yu nodded cautiously.

Not to mention anything else, in terms of strategic cooperation, they have always been the most tacit comrades in arms.

※※※※※

The two walked out of the cave together with the black dragon. In addition to looking for energy stones, Rosen also wanted to find some edible wild fruits. Otherwise, in two days, they would have to eat up all their food.

The black dragon turned on the detection system and scanned for a while within a few kilometers ahead, but found no moving wild animals. Then Luo Sen and Ling Yu felt relieved and let the black dragon open the way ahead. The two followed closely behind and walked Enter the forest.

As Ling Yu expected, the trees in the forest were extremely tall and dense. Walking into the forest, the huge canopy above the head blocked most of the light, leaving only a little light shining through the gaps between the branches and leaves, strand by strand. , like a beautiful green silk thread.

They had never seen this kind of tree before. The round leaves showed a dark green color under the monochromatic light. The thick trunk could not be surrounded even by four adults holding hands, and the beards of old people hung down from the trunk The dense vines, with sharp thorns on the vines, swayed gently in the wind, like the tentacles of some sea creatures.

The ground is very wet, and the wildly growing weeds are enough to drown the ankles, and some beautiful flowers that are almost coquettish are dotted among the weeds.

Looking at those wild flowers, Ling Yu always felt very uncomfortable——

The bright red color is like human blood, which makes people's spines tremble.

At this moment, Ling Yu's feet suddenly tightened, and before he had time to react, his body was directly tripped to the ground by a huge force, his feet were quickly entangled by dark green vines, and Ling Yu lay on his back on the ground The posture on the ground was quickly dragged into the distance by the huge rattan!

"what……"

The sharp pain came from both feet, as if my own feet had been cut off!

The dragged corpse was dragged on the ground and moved quickly, the back was rubbed with bloodstains by the stones on the ground, the world was spinning in front of my eyes, and my stomach was even more disgusting!Enduring the pain all over his body, Ling Yu wanted to find a knife from his boots to cut off the vines. Unexpectedly, just as he moved his hand, the surrounding vines seemed to be conscious, and immediately rolled over!

His hands and feet were tightly entangled, and more and more vines rolled over, Ling Yu's whole body was soon covered by dense vines, and the tightened vines strangled him almost to suffocation!

The strange fragrance emanating from the forest made his consciousness gradually blurred. In a trance, he heard a familiar voice shouting loudly in his ear——

"Ling Yu!"

Seeing the scene where Ling Yu was swept away, Luo Sen was furious and chased after him almost immediately!

He didn't expect that the quiet plants in the forest would suddenly attack them!

What was even more frightening was that there was a strange rattling rattling sound in my ears, and the sound of thousands of trees shaking at the same time was comparable to an earthquake!The eardrums were so shaken, and the wind blowing in the forest brought a strange fragrance of flowers from time to time...

Seeing that Ling Yu was strangled by the huge vines and his face turned blue, Luo Sen yelled, "Black Dragon!"

The mecha received the master's will, and immediately took out the weapon. Rosen grabbed the electromagnetic knife with his right hand, jumped forward, and chopped down with the knife, splitting the thickest vine in half!

The big tree vines that dragged Ling Yu were cut off by the roots, and red liquid gushed out of the wound—like human blood!

Those small vines slowly loosened as if they were losing their strength. Luo Sen immediately stepped forward, tore off the dense vines on Ling Yu's body in twos and twos, helped Ling Yu up, and asked in fear: "Are... are you okay? Bar?"

Ling Yu shook his head, did not answer, just gasped for breath.

The strange sound of trees shaking and the rustling of vines sliding on the ground continued to be heard in the forest. Luo Sen hurriedly picked up Ling Yu and said to the black dragon, "... let's go!"

The black dragon transformed immediately, and sent the two of them to his cockpit. He did not hesitate to consume a lot of stored energy, and flew towards the previous cave at the fastest speed!

At the moment of takeoff, Rosen looked out the window——

The big tree whose vines were cut off danced wildly, and a large number of trees in the forest suddenly threw out thick vines, and swept towards the black dragon with claws and teeth, as if all the flowers, plants and trees had become conscious, the whole area The forest is shaking violently...

Thinking of the scene just now, Rosen couldn't help but feel chills down his spine.

If he hadn't taken the black dragon away immediately and was left in the forest by the vines, the consequences would have been unimaginable!

Soon after returning to the cave, Luo Sen carried Ling Yu to the bed and let him lean into his arms.

It seems that because of the fresh air, Ling Yu's mind gradually recovered.He looked up at Rosen, and said softly: "I was too careless, I thought that there were no animals in the forest, so it was safe enough...I didn't expect the plants in the forest to attack us, maybe the plants on this planet It has mutated, has self-awareness, and has an instinctive rejection of foreign creatures?"

He still has the mood to think about these...

Rosen squatted down and asked in a low voice, "Are your feet okay?"

As soon as her finger touched Ling Yu's ankle, Ling Yu immediately frowned in pain.

Rosen hurriedly stopped, carefully helped him take off his boots, rolled up his trousers and took a look——

I saw that Ling Yu's ankles had already been bloodied by thorny vines, and there was hardly a piece of intact skin...

Blood was still flowing from the ankle, and the glaring blood made Rosen's whole heart throb!Because of the extreme anger and intense distress, there was even a hint of blood red in Rosen's eyes.

——His Ling Yu was injured so badly under his nose!
