Dressed as the cat of His Majesty the Dragon

***

At that moment, Chi Yao clearly heard the sound of his heart beating.

No way...Xu Xingzhou is so good-looking...

He seemed a little moved.

Chi Yao shook his head violently, trying to throw Qi Nian away.

How could he be like this!Xu Xingzhou is just the object of his mission!

How could I treat him as an object!

Chi Yao's heart gradually weakened, and in the end, even he didn't have the confidence.

It would be a lie to say that he is not attracted to Xu Xingzhou.

But he didn't know if Xu Xingzhou would dislike him if he became a human one day.

He wasn't sure if Xu Xingzhou just liked cats instead of Chi Yao in human form.

While he was thinking wildly, he was caught by a powerful big hand and carried out of the car.

"Maomao." The mellow voice rang in his ear, "Let's go in. Don't be nervous, it's just for fun."

Chi Yao reacted belatedly——

Wait, where did Xu Xingzhou bring him?

***

Selena Plaza, No.18 Interstellar Cute Pet Competition is in full swing.

The photos and videos of the cute pets participating in the competition were played repeatedly on the huge screen, scrolling to attract the favor and love of passers-by.

As one of the organizers of this event, Barov had long since lost his usual calmness and was anxious like a kid, scratching his head and ears.

Seeing his impatience, the housekeeper next to him couldn't help feeling a little worried, and asked, "My lord, what's the matter with you? Are you waiting for someone?"

Hearing his voice, Barov seemed to have regained his senses. He turned his head, smiled apologetically, shook his head and said, "Uh...no."

Now that Barov had already said that, his butler couldn't ask any further questions, so he stood silently by the side, looking around anxiously with him.

No one knew that His Majesty, the most honorable and fearsome Emperor of the Federation, would visit this small square today.

Barov wiped the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief, thinking anxiously.

He wasn't sure if His Majesty would come today. If His Majesty came, and he didn't give him enough dignified treatment, His Majesty would definitely not be unhappy; but he couldn't point out grandly that His Majesty would come today.Not to mention that if His Majesty didn't come, he wouldn't know where to save his face. If there were some gangsters in the crowd who wanted to do something shady, he really wouldn't be able to lose ten heads.

Barov recklessly assumed the result upside down, but it didn't have the effect of clearing up his thoughts, but made his chaotic head even more confused.

Someone not far away called him: "My lord, the game is about to start, please take your seat."

Barov nodded, a drop of sweat slipped from the side of his face.

He wiped the sweat off his face indifferently, and walked quickly to the guest seat.

The next moment, the sound from the electronic loudspeaker reverberated in Selena Plaza——

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the No.18 Interstellar Cute Pet Contest. Let us first invite the winner of the last interstellar cutest pet award! The Persian cat of Duke Barov's house in the Red Pavilion—Fero! "

Under everyone's eyes, in the next second, a snow-white cat appeared on the huge scrolling light screen. Its fur was smooth and it had a pair of beautiful different pupils. Against the pure black background, there was a mysterious sparkle. shine.

——Like the pure saint in Greek mythology.

The host was wearing a complicated white shirt, with delicate cufflinks, holding a microphone in a high-spirited manner, standing on the top of the tallest tower: "We are about to start the No. The prizes for the winners include—a 18-day round-the-world travel ticket for the entire federation interstellar world!"

After the words fell, everyone was amazed by such a big deal.

I thought last year's two interstellar garden houses were already very eye-catching, but I didn't expect this year's prizes to be even more valuable.

Chi Yao nestled in Xu Xingzhou's arms, blinking his eyes.

He was a little moved. If he could travel around the stars with Xu Xingzhou, he would be very, very happy.

but……

Chi Yao glanced at Xu Xingzhou's side face, and the light fell on his face, as if covered with a layer of tulle.

Leaving aside whether Xu Xingzhou wants to take him there, Xu Xingzhou is so busy, he definitely doesn't have time.

Xu Xingzhou's hand resting on his head moved suddenly, scratching his chin.

"Does Maomao want to go?" Xu Xingzhou's voice rang right next to his ears.With a beautiful lowness that is almost seductive.

Chi Yao's ears moved, obviously wanting to go very much, but then he languished again.

No matter how much he wanted to go, he couldn't delay Xu Xingzhou from handling the government affairs of the Federation.

In that case, the ministers will say that he is a tyrant, but what should we do?

Chi Yao hesitated for a while, feeling his heart was bleeding, but still shook his head very resolutely to Xu Xingzhou.

Maomao doesn't want to go.

"Then what should I do?" Xu Xingzhou looked through the delicate fox mask, tender and affectionate, "But I want to go a little bit, will cats accompany me?"

Chi Yao was taken aback for a moment, feeling the pink bubbles permeating his body again.

Xu Xingzhou...what did you just say?

He wants to win this award and wants Mao Mao to accompany him on an interstellar journey.

Chi Yao blinked, acted coquettishly, and rubbed his hand.

***

The ticket Xu Xingzhou took was the VIP seat, and he gathered with a group of noble officials. Everyone wore a mask of a different shape, and no one could recognize the other.

Chi Yao was very satisfied with this, because he had seen too many, as long as others saw that the person in front of him was Xu Xingzhou, they would flee in a hurry.

It's too unfamiliar, people who don't know it will think that Xu Xingzhou is some kind of vicious gangster.

That's it, it's good to be closer.

They sat in the front row, and the pets they brought were entering the stage one by one.

Beautiful cats, obedient dogs, singing birds...

Chi Yao was a little nervous.

Xu Xingzhou wanted him to win an award and accompany him on an interstellar tour, but he didn't seem to have much confidence.

There is no other reason. Pets with higher ratings are generally beautiful in coat color, or have a lot of talents.

Ok……

Chi Yao lowered his eyes and looked at himself.

The gray-brown fur is mixed together, with a leopard-like pattern. Although it can be called beautiful, it should not meet the taste of too many people.

He's just a cat, he can't be as agile as a dog, and he can't be as good at talking and singing as a bird.

what should I do?Really sad cat.

When Chi Yao was frowning, Xu Xingzhou touched him: "Maomao, it's your turn to play next."

Chi Yao looked up, with a little confusion and bewilderment in his eyes.

It seems to be asking him, Maomao doesn't have any talents, what should I do?

The corners of Xu Xingzhou's lips curved slightly, he nodded his little nose, and pointed out: "Do what you are good at."

***

Chi Yao just felt dizzy and didn't know what to do for a moment.

He felt that he was separated from the noisy environment around him by something, and when the spotlight fell on him, he realized that he had already stood in the center of the stage.

Chi Yao pursed his lips, his eyes were a little confused.

It's over, it's over, he's really over this time.

Can I get that first prize now?Let's not talk about the opportunity to travel to the whole interstellar world with Xu Xingzhou.With his current state, if he came up to perform directly, he would definitely make a fool of himself.

It's over, I really want to lose the cat.

Weeping cat head.

Suddenly, he suddenly heard a familiar music.

He turned his head to the huge rolling light screen behind him, and a theme song was playing.

——"The Cutest Interstellar".

As usual above, there is a snow-white cat dancing to the music. It is a bit childish, but it is very cute, and it can be called naive.

Before Chi Yao could react, his body moved with the music.

what am i doing ?

But he didn't stop moving, imitating that fluid white cat.

The audience below were immediately thrown back and forth by the laughter.

"Hey, look at this cat, he is so cute. Although I don't know what breed it is, and the coat color is a bit mottled, but he can actually learn the jelly cat in "The Cutest Star"! Childhood memories. .”

"Don't say that his coat color is not good-looking, but that is a Maine Coon cat. It is said that there are very few purebred cats like him in the entire interstellar world."

"I think I've seen this cat somewhere? It's so cute."

"..."

There are endless discussions below, but Chi Yao is not in the mood to listen.

His gaze was actively looking for Xu Xingzhou who was sitting below, but the seat below seemed to use two coordinate systems when he looked at it. His gaze swept around, but he still couldn't catch the fox mask s face.

After the music finished playing, he stopped and saw Xu Xingzhou who had been looking for him for a long time.

—he was standing backstage, looking at him with a smile in his eyes.

For some reason, Chi Yao rushed over.

It wasn't until he got into that familiar embrace that Chi Yao felt the sense of belonging and security from Xu Xingzhou.

And Xu Xingzhou stroked Chi Yao's hair, lowered his dark red eyes: "Maomao, are you nervous or scared?"

Chi Yao nodded vigorously at first, then remembered something, and shook his head.

With Xu Xingzhou around, he would never be afraid.

Not far away, Barov seemed to have finally realized something, and suddenly stood up.

Maybe it was because he had been suppressed for too long, his voice was a little excited, and it was continuously amplified through the external amplifier next to him: "Your Majesty! Why are you here and don't talk to me..."

Xu Xingzhou glanced at him lightly, and replied: "It's okay, Mao Mao and I just came out to play. Your Excellency, please do yourself, we can go back first."

Barov nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, and agreed, "Your Majesty, go slowly."

After he finished speaking, Xu Xingzhou turned around and left. Before the door of the interstellar car closed, Chi Yao, who was nestled in his arms, heard a few comments floating over with the wind——

"That's His Majesty the Emperor. Didn't I hear that he is very cruel? Why is Yaxing still bringing the cat out to play?"

"Don't pay attention to this, okay? Look at the half of his face exposed under the fox mask, my God, he is so handsome, he is the man of my dreams!"

"Hey, keep your voice down! It seems that His Majesty is very young, and he is just a little indifferent. It seems that the rumors in the palace are not true."

"Wooooow, I really want to be that cat in his arms."

Chi Yao poured an earful of "The Man in Dream", hid in Xu Xingzhou's arms, smiled with satisfaction, obediently sat in the co-pilot, and followed Xu Xingzhou home.

Hey, it's useless to covet him!

Xu Xingzhou can only be Maomao alone!

***

Unexpectedly, Xu Xingzhou seems to be very busy today. As soon as he got home, Xu Xingzhou came out of the bathroom and told him that he might go to Sapp Garden.

Chi Yao watched him pack his things, feeling a little puzzled.

I have to go to the meeting hall to work late at night, so I must have encountered something very important.

It's a pity that he is just a kitten, so he can't follow Xu Xingzhou to the conference hall and watch him work.

That's a real shame.

Before closing the door, Xu Xingzhou also told him to go to bed obediently, he could go to bed first and cover him with his little quilt.In addition, he was also specially instructed not to eat too much strawberry jelly, and the amount of two strawberries a day cannot be changed.

Chi Yao flattened his mouth, puffing up like a puffer fish.

If you don't let them eat, don't let them eat, he has said it many times, and the mother-in-law doesn't even talk about him.

Hmph, besides, is he such an undisciplined cat?

Although he muttered a few times, he still obediently obeyed and lay down on the bed early.

Xu Xingzhou's bed was big and soft, and a small quilt was specially equipped for him, but he still liked to share the same quilt with Xu Xingzhou.

There is no other reason, Xu Xingzhou's body is cold at night, just as Chi Yao's body is a little hot, if he rubs against Xu Xingzhou every time, he will definitely not be cold anymore.

Chi Yao was very proud of his masterpiece when he recalled it, but it's a pity that he should be the only one sleeping in the first half of the night.

He tossed and turned for a long time, probably because Xu Xingzhou was not there, but he couldn't fall asleep.

How about seeing how much his love is worth?

Chi Yao went ahead and opened the system after a long absence.

[Chi Yao]: Call the system, call the system, I want to see my love value.May I?

The system seemed to be dormant as well, and he called for a long time before answering.

[System]: Your love value is 80 points, congratulations, the system has automatically detected that your task completion has reached 80%.

Chi Yao: 【*^o^*】

Chi Yao: [Then, what are the benefits? 】

In the past few times, after his petting reached a certain value, the system would remind him to redeem the corresponding rewards. His completion degree is so high now, Chi Yao is somewhat looking forward to what the rewards will be this time.

The system seemed to deliberate for a long time before replying to him.

System: [After the automatic evaluation by the system, dear, you have made a significant contribution to the completion of the task. At present, the reward you can exchange for is: temporarily change back to human form. 】

The stingy system continued to add: [However, please note that the humanoid state can only last for one hour at most, and the number of times you can use this function is limited to one time per day. In order not to fall off the horse before the end of the mission, please use it with caution. 】

Chi Yao's eyes are bright——

Great, he was able to turn into a human!

Although it is only for a short hour, and this function is very tasteless, it can only be used once a day.

But he is also very happy!

Chi Yao seemed to be harboring a secret, and didn't intend to become a human right away.

On the day when he completes his mission, he can completely become a human, so let's talk to Xu Xingzhou again!

***

Sapp Garden, Chamber of Commerce.

The air pressure in the hall has reached a critical point, and the surrounding air seems to have been frozen into some kind of alternation, and the air is slowly flowing with dignity.

This time, the ministers did not kneel on the red carpet that seemed to be soaked in blood, but stood on both sides with their heads down.

No one dared to look up at the gloomy king sitting on the top——their Majesty the Emperor, Xu Xingzhou.

Since the insect swarm in the distant star spread, it has spread extremely fast. I don’t know why, maybe it’s the reason for the mutation of the cosmic radiation. The speed has doubled again. The latest information reports that the worm swarm has migrated to Star α——

It is only one galaxy away from the capital star.

Duke Barov, who just came back from the cute pet competition, is giving a performance to Xu Xingzhou.

There was more sweat on his forehead than before, but at this moment he didn't bother to wipe it off with a handkerchief.

"Your Majesty, I think we should take the initiative to expel the bug swarm as soon as possible." His voice was as low as a mosquito, and he was afraid that if he was not careful, his head would roll into the crocodile pond. "There are two reasons. First , to promote national prestige, the Zerg really deceived people too much this time, and repeatedly violated the Federation. Second, in recent days, frequent turmoil broke out in various galaxies, not because we did not provide supplies for post-disaster reconstruction, but because they destroyed The speed of supply is several times faster than our supply speed, and our army cannot afford such a loss. Combining two reasons, if things go on like this, it will lead to catastrophe.”

After he finished speaking, he quickly shrank his head, not daring to raise his head to look directly at Xu Xingzhou.

But their majesty the emperor didn't seem to be as exposed as he imagined, and he was quite calm: "What Duke Barov said is very true, I will think about it carefully. There is another problem, with all the military equipment we have now , How confident are you in the victory rate of expelling the Zerg?"

Wen Chang, the Minister of State Affairs who stood on the side, was trembling: "Return to Your Majesty, judging from our current preparations, the chance of defeating the Zerg is 80%. According to my analysis, the winning rate is still very high, and it is worth fighting. But if we want to go very smoothly To conquer this war, we must go through hard work.”

After hearing what he said, Xu Xingzhou nodded in approval.

Nowadays, there are frequent turmoil in the Federation. It is definitely not a wave that a mere Zerg can stir up, but a long-standing grievance. This post-disaster reconstruction is just a breakthrough.

Winning the Zerg is a small matter, the most important thing is to quell the civil strife.

He propped his chin, with a tired expression: "Please prepare your love affairs. Wenchang, how long will it take for us to set off at least?"

Wenchang glanced at him secretly, saw that his expression was mostly serious, and asked with some uncertainty: "Tomorrow will be fine. Wait...Your Majesty, do you mean that you want to conquest yourself?"

Xu Xingzhou nodded, his dark red eyes were like the purest rubies: "Yes. In addition, the Zerg owed me something. After so many years, I should get it back."

***

It wasn't until midnight that there were slight footsteps outside the dormitory.

Chi Yao didn't sleep soundly. Hearing the movement, he turned over and jumped off the bed, his big fluffy tail swaying slightly.

The door was gently opened, and the pair of slender legs didn't enter through the door before being grabbed by a pair of furry claws.

Chi Yao rubbed against Xu Xingzhou's leg affectionately, and there were a few large characters written in his bright eyes——

you are back!

When Xu Xingzhou saw that it was him, his originally tired mood changed into a gentle smile.He knelt down and touched Chi Yao's fluffy head: "It's so late, the cat is still awake, are you waiting for me?"

Chi Yao nodded and shook his head.

After all, he didn't wait for Xu Xingzhou to come home on purpose, but ran out to greet him after he tossed and turned on the bed and couldn't fall asleep when he heard the noise outside the door.

Those big clear eyes watched Xu Xingzhou closely, as if asking:

What's the matter?

Xu Xingzhou scratched his chin, smiled a little forcedly, and his eyes were full of tiredness: "It's nothing. Mmm... Maomao, I may be leaving tomorrow."

Chi Yao was startled by him, opened his eyes wide and froze for a moment.

Xu Xingzhou, he, what did he just say?

Are you leaving tomorrow?Where is he going?

And why so suddenly?Why didn't he know anything in advance?

And according to his tone, doesn't he plan to take the cat with him?

Chi Yao blinked, then pulled Xu Xingzhou's trouser legs.

Xu Xingzhou explained: "...The Federation is actually very dangerous now? The Zerg have migrated to the various galaxies of the Federation. However, because their migration speed is too fast, we cannot keep up with the speed of reconstruction after the disaster. In the past few days, the major galaxies have erupted. Riots of different scales. In order to make the Federation safer, I decided to go on a personal expedition. Well... this time I should be back soon, because the place where I dealt with the bug swarm is not far from the capital star."

This is the second time he has brought up matters related to government affairs with Chi Yao.The first time was when he changed his mind about Xu Xingzhou and took the initiative to post it.

Chi Yao nodded, he understood that Xu Xingzhou was not only his shit shovel officer, but also the Emperor of the entire Federation.

And... the system told him before that he could become a human soon!

When Xu Xingzhou went to deal with the Yuanxing turmoil, his love value grew very fast during that time.

If the same amount is replaced, Xu Xingzhou's task progress bar will be full in the past few days.

You can become fully human!

The more Chi Yao thought about it, the more excited he became, even the discomfort and unhappiness that Xu Xingzhou had to leave him for many days was diluted a bit.So, he grabbed Xu Xingzhou's arm, and beckoned with a fluffy paw, as if promising him——

Go, go, cats will take good care of themselves!

***

Chi Yao went back to bed and bounced around for a long time, feeling like he didn't want to sleep at all.

After pondering for a long time, he took out the small disk that Cain gave him last time from under the bed, and stuck it on his forehead——

He wanted to log in to the forum called Little Sweet Potato.Since this is a dedicated pet forum, there must be a lot of attention to this cute pet contest.

He wanted to find a photo with Mao Mao and Xu Xingzhou in it.

Chi Yao entered keywords and found a boutique building among the vast number of posts.

Because the results of the competition have not come out so soon, the host posted all the pictures of the participating pets to the building for netizens who didn't go to the scene to watch.

Chi Yao's little paws moved quickly, and found Xu Xingzhou's photo on the 1664th floor——

Floor 1664: [chattering]: [picture] Damn, sisters, pay attention, this man is really handsome.Even if he is wearing a mask, the other half that is exposed is enough to keep me dreaming all night, okay?

Floor 1665: [chattering]: [picture] [picture] [picture] Let the sisters have a look ^_^

Floor 1666: Damn, thank you upstairs for the explanation!

……

It wasn't until after more than 100 floors that no one thought of Chi Yao, a transparent cat with a very low sense of existence.

Floor 1745: [咩咩哒]: Do you think this cat looks like the cat of the strawberry hard candy landlord?He is also in Capital Star!

Floor 1746: [咩咩哒哒]: Cats are also cute, and people are also handsome, so life-saving!I took a group photo today, please comment. 【picture】

Chi Yao held his breath and gently poked open the picture.

Under the neon lights in the picture, there is a man Yiguang standing in the background. He is tall and has long legs. His eyes are gentle and tender from under the mask, and his hands are stretched out, as if he is embracing the cat that is running towards him. .

Chi Yao was stunned for a moment, then quickly saved it.

He opened Caine's contact terminal and sent the photo to Caine.

He sent a message to Caine using brainwaves to text——

Maomao: Maomao wants this photo.

***

Maybe this trip was different from Xu Xingzhou's openness when he quelled the Yuanxing turmoil last time, this time they went quietly.

It was not yet dawn, even though Chi Yao got up early on purpose, he didn't see Xu Xingzhou.

The morning of the capital star is a bit foggy, and this pink planet is shrouded in a layer of thick white mist, like a moon in a flower mirror in water, as delicate as a beautiful crystal lamp.

This time Xu Xingzhou didn't say how long he was going to go, nor did he give a clear deadline. It seemed that when the bug swarm should be cleared, when would he be able to go home.

Chi Yao obediently followed his usual habits, ate breakfast, played with Ka Yin for a while, and found two small strawberry jellybeans in the refrigerator.

——During this time, Xu Xingzhou has not allowed him to consume too much sugar, so he is very strict about the amount of sugar.Chi Yao originally thought that as soon as he left, he would eat a lot of candy every day without restraint like before.

As a result, the habit of eating two candies a day seemed to be engraved into the biological clock, and I couldn't adjust it all at once.

After all the usual things were done, Chi Yao sat on the warm gray carpet.

The weather in Shouduxing is not very good today, it is foggy and there is no sun to bask in.He thought for a while, but he couldn't remember what he hadn't done yet, and he always felt a little empty in his heart.

After a long time, a sentence popped up in his heart.

——He seemed to miss Xu Xingzhou a little bit.

As soon as these words came out, his heart seemed to fall to the ground, like a planet that had been wandering for thousands of years, and found his place of belonging.Chi Yao didn't know why, but felt that the base of his ear was a little hot. If he was in human form now, he should have been burned red already.

He covered his ears with one hand, a little annoyed, tossing and turning on the soft carpet——

He didn't want that Xu Xingzhou!Who wants a puppy!

He turned around for a while, as if he had thought of something, a carp stood up, carefully selected a suitable background, and turned on his video call watch.

Puppies are puppies!People are kittens.

In this week plane, radio conversations seem to be unlimited by space.Chi Yao's phone and watch rang for a while, and the connection was made over there.

But there is no Xu Xingzhou in the picture, but the vast and boundless galaxy.

Chi Yao froze for a moment, and saw clearly a small planet closest to the screen.

It is surrounded by fiery red light, and it is heading forward rapidly. If you look at it from the planet, it is a shooting star that can symbolize good luck and blessings.

The light before the fall is always bright.

"Maomao, do you like this?" Xu Xingzhou's voice sounded slowly, deep and sweet, it seemed that he was hiding behind the scene.

Chi Yao nodded vigorously.

Only then did Xu Xingzhou turn the camera to himself. He was sitting in a chair that looked very soft and huge. It was different from his usual attire. He was wearing a space combat suit, a silver armor, and the cold light inside the mech spaceship In the middle, it shines with a metallic texture.

——It's just that there is a nondescript, rather ridiculous-looking gray cat's head adorned on the wrist buckle. When he moves, the crisp sound of bells will ring from time to time.

Looking at the clumsy gift he gave to the other party, Chi Yao was a little embarrassed.Although this was indeed something he made with great care and a lot of time, compared with Xu Xingzhou's precious gem-made buttons, it was really shabby.

The emperor of his country really doesn't need to do this.

Chi Yao wept slowly in his heart——

Woohoo, Xu Xingzhou is too kind.

Chi Yao felt the care from the other party, as if Xu Xingzhou was silently saying to him: I care about you.

Chi Yao was so moved that he almost burst into tears.

Fortunately, there was an electronic communication screen between them, Xu Xingzhou on the opposite side couldn't see clearly.

He stood up and walked to the huge hanging window, outside was the vast sea of ​​stars.

"We'll be on Star α soon." Xu Xingzhou said, "Maomao, do you want to see how we drive out the bug swarm?"

Chi Yao nodded vigorously, he wanted to experience it with Xu Xingzhou more than caring silently.

Immediately, he heard an electronic call: "Flyon, equip me with a battle mech. I'm going to clean up the bug swarm."

Chi Yao frowned, not knowing what Xu Xingzhou was up to.

Isn't he riding a battle mech now?

Frion quickly replied, with astonishment and confusion in his words: "Your Majesty, what are you talking about? Are you going to clean up the bug swarm yourself? No, it's too dangerous!"

Unmoved, Xu Xingzhou repeated: "Give me a battle mech."

Knowing that he couldn't resist him, Frion obediently let a mecha in Battle Curry glide out of the mothership until it reached his command ship.

Chi Yao finally understood——

Although Xu Xingzhou was personally on the expedition, but this time the expedition did not endanger the point where His Majesty the Emperor had to clean it up in person.

Therefore, he is now in the command ship, not some battle mech.

Chi Yao is a little anxious, this is not fun!

What if I get hurt?Xu Xingzhou still has insect poison in his body!In those interstellar novels, isn’t there often a plot where the protagonist suffers from insect poisoning, and then gets sick when he gets close to the Zerg?

Maomao is worried.

Chi Yao kept patting his call watch with his furry paws, trying to stop him with his thoughts separated by hundreds of light years.

Xu Xingzhou smiled and boarded the battle mech: "Maomao, it's fine, don't worry about me. I have a present that I want to give you."

Chi Yao lowered his paws and saw the starry sky reflected in the depths of his dark red eyes.

***

Perhaps because he was in space and the signal was not good, Xu Xingzhou hung up the phone soon after.

Chi Yao was a little worried, his heart was always in his throat, and he couldn't let it go.

At this time, the love system, which had been silent for a long time and always pretended to be dead, suddenly issued a notice——

System: [Hello, player, the system has automatically detected that your mission progress has reached 90%, do you need to use the short-lived humanoid function today? 】

Chi Yao patted his head, thinking that he almost forgot that there is still this function.

He lowered his head and his eyes fell on his delicate pink skirt.

A somewhat immature idea popped up.

Xu Xingzhou likes cats in small skirts very much, I don't know...whether he likes cats in human form in small skirts.

Chi Yao was a little shy, and his ears felt a little hot.

He was shy for a while, and then he tried his best to pretend to be indifferent, and replied as if nothing had happened——

Chi Yao: [System, I want to use this function now...By the way, can I exchange love for a pink skirt? 】

***

A moment later, in the empty bedroom, a... young boy in a pink skirt suddenly appeared.

Chi Yao jumped out of the bedroom, the skirt on his body was a little uncomfortable for him.

Although he had to wear skirts every day when he was a kitten, it wasn't something he adapted to when he was in human form.

Coupled with his little unknown thoughts, even if Ka Yin left with Xu Xingzhou and no one was in the dormitory, he still felt a little guilty.

Well, really only a little bit.

He pushed open the bathroom door—there was a very large mirror.

He cautiously stretched out his head, leaned against the door, and looked at his face——

It was exactly the same as his face in the 21st century. At this moment, he was slightly stained with shyness, and his cheeks were even dyed a little pink.

He has always been very delicate. When he was in college, he often came to take pictures with him.

Chi Yao knew that he was not ugly, but at this moment he took a closer look at the person in the mirror.

The person in the mirror has eyes as clear as a stream, and his lips are very red, as if he has applied lip gloss.

Overall, it's a good look.

Chi Yao touched his face, wondering if after so many years, in this interstellar plane, their aesthetics is still the same as that of people on earth?

What if Xu Xingzhou thinks he is ugly and doesn't like him anymore?

Chi Yao sighed and retracted again.

Really sad cat.

Chi Yao flattened his mouth and thought secretly:

If Xu Xingzhou doesn't like him because he is ugly, he will give Xu Xingzhou a meow fist!

No matter what, Xu Xingzhou can only like him, he has no other choice!

***

Federal command ship - Xingyun II.

The command ship turned on stealth mode, blocking all outgoing signals.

Twenty minutes ago, they had already entered the migratory area of ​​the bug swarm. In order not to disturb the emitted particle flow and wipe out all the Zergs who had finally been driven together, Xu Xingzhou could only temporarily join forces with the bug swarm and send out a covert signal.

He looked out through the transparent hanging window, and the originally vast dark blue sea of ​​stars had been covered by a dense black object, revealing some nondescript variegated colors.

That's the migratory bug swarm.

The bug swarm signal wave activity near α star is very frequent, almost reaching the effect of almost covering the sky.

It seems that what the ministers of state affairs said is not wrong, the disaster here is indeed very serious, so much so that if it is not dealt with, the Zerg will one day invade the heart of the federation.

The small mailbox on the light screen moved, making a sharp "didi" sound.

Xu Xingzhou lowered his eyes and saw a voice.

"Your Majesty, we have made a major discovery near Star Alpha."

It was Freon's voice.

"what?"

"It's like this, we seem to have captured the signal wave from the worm king... But we are not 100% sure that it is the worm king, so I am here to ask for your instructions."

"Insect king..." Xu Xingzhou rolled the term in his throat a few times, as if he was thinking carefully.
