Zerg's Golden House Insect
Chapter 36
Xia En raised his eyebrows: "Those killers?"
"That's right. It's been delayed for two days, so I can only catch up with the process."
Shane understood what he meant.According to the established plan, they will leave for Red Hart next Saturday, which is exactly a week from today.For seven days, Lloyd had to deal with his relatives, the killers assassinated in the cemetery, the daily administrative affairs of the Legion, and other temporary things (including various trivial matters related to Sean) before leaving.In this way, they really don't have much time to waste.
However, Xia En raised the corners of his lips, crossed his arms, and squinted at Lloyd: "Will it be useful for me to go?"
His tone was mocking and his eyes were provocative.He was sure that Lloyd understood exactly what the phrase meant and why.
"This is your right." The female worm replied.
Attitudes change pretty quickly.Xia En didn't speak, just stared at the worm in front of him.Whether he goes or not is his choice; and Lloyd, as his guardian, whether to ask or not has something to do with how he views Xiaoxiongzi.This is also the reason why Xia En would rather give orders to those military females under the guise of orders than directly wake up Lloyd and serve as his savior.
It was this arrogant female who disrespected him first.Naturally, he would not take the initiative to ask for help.Anyway, he is capable of saving himself.
This point was at the heart of their quarrel.Obviously, the not-so-stupid general of the empire reacted quickly after waking up, and immediately made corrections.
"Wait for me five minutes."
Xia En retracted his legs, got up from the sofa, and accepted the olive branch extended by the female.
"Little Master!"
cried Lloyd suddenly.Xia En turned his head inexplicably, only to see that the other party grabbed his arm, pushed him to the sofa next to him, then half knelt down by himself, and opened the box in his hand.
It's a medical kit.
Xia En couldn't help but look puzzled, until the female soldier skillfully opened the medicine bottle, took out the cotton swab for disinfection, put it aside, and then came over and touched the bandage around his neck.
For the sake of beauty and privacy, at the request of Xia En, Jie used a bandage that simulates the texture of the skin and can automatically adjust the skin color. If you don't look closely, you won't find it at all.However, Lloyd seemed to have the ability to see through, and he just pressed the edge of the bandage and peeled it off.
On the young man's slender neck, the scar from being strangled deeply by the rope has healed up a lot after two days.It's just that the remaining ones, against the background of smooth and delicate skin like jade, still look terrible.
"Here...does it still hurt when talking, drinking, and eating?"
The older female made no secret of his worry, and her usually ruthless eyes were also very tender and soft at the moment.
Xia En froze, and the place touched by the female insect's fingers instantly became hot, and the other party's subwoofer-like voice was deep and magnetic, and it penetrated into his ears like a small insect ran in. The itching and discomfort made him restless .
"It's a small wound, it's not going to be a problem for a long time."
Xia En quickly reacted, pushed the army female carelessly, and wanted to get up and run away.
"No, it needs to be disinfected again."
Lloyd frowned, suppressing his intentions with one hand without saying a word.He gently rolled the edge of the unhealed wound with a cotton swab dipped in medicine. In contrast to his firm tone, his extremely careful and meticulous movements.
"What is Jie doing? It's too early to change the dressing, didn't he remind you?"
The female worm's tone was gentle for only two seconds, but soon became harsh again.
Xia En breathed a sigh of relief: "Uh, it seems that he requested communication, but I accidentally slipped my hand... and then I forgot."
Besides Franz, Yuri, and Sean's exclusive family doctor, Jie's job is actually the chief medical officer of the First Fleet of the Looster First Legion.It's just because for nearly a thousand years, the captain of the First Fleet, that is, the head of the Looster Legion, has been the Duke of Looster, and it is well known that the Grand Duke Looster is basically in the legion. For better healing effects and convenience, the same It has almost become an unwritten rule that only worms serve as both.
Jie is a very responsible female, and she will never forget the matters in her field of work.But he still has a public job, so naturally he can't just look at Xia En all day long.After dealing with Lloyd's injuries that day and observing for enough time, he returned to the First Fleet's station in Bruskay.The follow-up treatment of Xia En's wound can only be done through remote supervision.
So at the little young master who was afraid of trouble, he got the result that the communication request was ruthlessly rejected N times.
Lloyd glanced at Xiao Xiongzi with displeasure. He knew his little tricks well, but his hands were lighter because of his inadvertent trembling. Therefore, the processing of this book can be done in a few minutes. In the end, it took a full ten minutes.
When the new bandage was finally attached, Xia En took a long breath, jumped up from the sofa impatiently, and ran to the door:
"I'm going to change clothes!"
Seeing his urgency as if he was fleeing for his life, the admiral of the empire couldn't help shaking his head.
More than ten years have passed, and the young master is still like this, impatient as always, sitting there quietly is torture and punishment for him.Like this, how do you mess around in the political arena of the legion?After all, any formal meeting starts in half an hour, and there is no upper limit...
Ten minutes later, Shane stepped into the military base of the First Fleet of the Looster Legion in Bruskay.
Like all other males, he has always been insensitive to these things, so although his family specializes in this, this is his first experience in military bases in the past 20 years of living in this world.
You said the previous graduate trainee?
That's different.That time, he just boarded the warship on a shuttle from the ground after it left the port, and his first impression of the First Fleet was only on the huge and beautiful starship design.And for more than a month after that, he was either wringing his fingers to figure out the arrangements for the warship to stop at the port along the way, or looking for potential bedmates in the military female next to his elder brother to pass the time. How could he give other things such as A superfluous look at the size of the warship, its configuration and equipment, and its organization?
As soon as he entered the gate of the base, Lloyd was called away by the worm. Before leaving, he arranged for a guide to give him a tour guide, and said that he would go back as soon as he went.Reminiscent of his communicator that has been beeping (the magic sound pierced his brain for several days), Xia En graciously accepted his arrangement.
The guide at the reception was respectful to the heir to the title of Looster, and after a brief visit to the open area, he arranged for Xiao Xiongzi to the VIP lounge for external reception.Immediately, after receiving the news, Xia En's military females on the First Fleet who had flirted with each other rushed over if they had time to get away.
They were very enthusiastic about Shane. Out of some natural compensation and affection, they piled up almost all the delicious and new and interesting things that they could get in the base in the short time Lloyd left. in front of him.Some of them are bold and hearty, and even rely on their military ranks to occupy the nearest position to him, implying that they want to continue the front line.
Xia En has no hobby of turning back.Boring is boring.But he has always been a good lover, so he kept being cooperating with Tofu with a smile, and refused with the excuse of "busy family affairs".
"Ken, can we have a private chat?"
The tall army female with black hair and black eyes put Xiaoxiongzi's drink on the table and was about to exit with a tray.At this moment, Zhong Xiongzi, who is holding the moon among the stars, stopped him.
The envious and jealous eyes of the females focused on Ken, and those who had a better relationship immediately made various booing sounds.Xia En took Ken's hand as if fleeing to the outside.Although it is a military base, the living area here is not perfunctory, with lush trees and flowing water fountains.The two worms walked casually in the small garden near the reception area, chatting about trivial things in life by the way.
When it comes to chatting, as always, it is Xia En who is talking.Because of the experience in his previous life, Xia En is very good at communicating with other people/bugs about topics without depth.This is useful anytime.
Ken listened quietly and patiently to the blond boy talking about the latest popular news, anecdotes, and gossip. If two insects.
After the fleet returned to the voyage, the two worms separated at the port, and there was no contact after that.Xia En couldn't help but be surprised that the worm he once hugged became like this.It shouldn't be because of Yuri's departure. In the last week of the voyage, the female worm seemed to have adjusted her condition.
In addition, as the communication officer of the First Fleet, he must have been closely interrogated in Red Hart. It is normal to be under a lot of pressure, but the review has ended, and he has successfully returned to Bruskay as the first batch of military females. The truth is still so concerned.
Xia En is afraid of trouble and is very willful, but he treats these female insects who have had skin-to-skin relatives with him, even if they meet again and don't remember their names, they can still greet them gently and meticulously.At the same time, I am also happy to help them solve some minor troubles within the scope of my ability.
"Ken, what happened?" Sean stopped by the fountain and asked.
Unexpectedly, the black-haired army female shook her head silently. He looked down at the young man, with a slight gleam in his black eyes:
"Young master, you don't have to bother to say so many words. I understand that you just need a reason to get out."
"Oh, we're still so smart!"
After being exposed, Xia En admitted generously: "Thank you for saving me! I owe you once!"
"That was not what I meant!"
The forced smile on the corner of Ken's mouth and the brilliance in his eyes gradually faded, and his voice was full of bitterness: "You are too polite...so polite that I am a little...unaccustomed to it."
The two worms face each other, and the atmosphere is a bit awkward.Sean scratched his face, sat down on the bench beside the fountain, and patted the empty seat beside him:
"Take a break."
Ken sat down obediently, as if to make up for the abruptness just now, this time it was Jun Nu who took the initiative to speak:
"Actually, after you were attacked, I was very worried about your situation, and I almost sent you a message. But thinking that the general is by your side, I feel that my worries are unnecessary. The general is an S-rank female insect, and no insect can Hurting you right under his nose."
"really."
Xiao Xiongzi, who had witnessed the scene of Lloyd's battle with his own eyes, nodded in agreement:
"As far as that is concerned, he is very reliable. Other than that, he has a lot of stink problems. Too controlling, and very self-righteous, tsk tsk, this kind of personality trait I have only seen in males before, no matter what gender , are quite annoying."
"Ken, it's amazing that you have tolerated him for so many years as his subordinates!...Have you ever spoken ill of him in private? I remember you called him something like a demon, a robot bug, a war element, etc... ..."
Sean looked at Ken mockingly, trying to activate the dead energy in the bug.Unexpectedly, a trace of loneliness flashed across the eyes of the female insect, and then he lowered his head and replied in a slightly low voice:
"Admiral is indeed very strong, which is an essential quality of a leader. But he is only right about things, not about people. He is the first to demonstrate the training content, marching standards, and military regulations he implements. Although everyone complains, But I am very convinced from the bottom of my heart. As for some complaints that are not pleasant to listen to, it may be because they have done the same wrong thing. Although the marshal is angry, he will still take everyone's face into consideration. It’s big, and you can hear it clearly through the door. So there will be some ugly words spread.”
"Actually, I don't like the general very much in terms of personal feelings. But I admire him. I have always admired him. Before coming to the Looster Army, he was the goal of my struggle. He made me believe that hard work will pay off. If you get rewarded, you can control your destiny in your own hands. But now I understand that the truth is correct, but worms and worms are always different..."
The black-haired female insect sighed and fell silent for a long time.
Shane didn't speak.He could tell that Ken didn't want to be questioned or comforted, he just needed to listen.
After a few minutes of silence, the female who kept her head down seemed to have finally sorted out her emotions.He sat up straight, turned his head and smiled at the blond boy, the warm and peaceful Ken that Sean was familiar with returned:
"Anyway, I was very happy to see you before I left. Thank you."
"Can I give you a hug?" The black-haired, black-eyed female looked at him expectantly.
Inexplicably being thanked by the worm, Xia En was at a loss, but the next request was too easy to satisfy.He generously opened his arms and hugged the female's waist. At the same time, the other woman hugged him back tightly, with great strength, as if instinctively absorbing something to survive after falling into the water.
From this action, Xia En really felt Ken's reluctance and love.No matter who the worm who is willing to love is, it will not affect the warmth and goodwill that have always existed in their relationship. This kind of thing that originated from the female worm is very precious, and it is rare among so many dewy love affairs.
He wanted to ask a few more questions about "leaving", but at this moment, a young military female ran up the side path, and Ken immediately let go of his arms.
"Young master, the general is back!"
Shane and Ken hurried back to the lounge, Lloyd picked up Xiao Xiongzi and led him to another passage without saying a word.According to the sign next to it, they went all the way to the core of the base.Obviously, after dealing with urgent matters, Lloyd finally freed his hands to deal with the real goal of their trip.
The further you go in, the stricter the security.After going through multiple authentication checkpoints, the two worms came to the core of the military base - the main control center.
The offices of senior military officers are also scattered around here.And when they arrived, several military females were already waiting outside the office of the deputy chief of the legion.
"Admiral."
The leader was the shortest, with red hair, and looked very young. When he saw Lloyd, he tiptoed and saluted.
Lloyd took the portable tablet optical computer he handed over, and walked towards the room while quickly flipping through the report submitted by the other party, and quickly frowned: "Hawke, this is your two-day report. progress?
"We tried all kinds of interrogation methods, and there was really no other way."
The coercive field of the female immediately spread, and under the admiring eyes of the female behind, the red-haired army female followed without fear:
"Dr. Linton said that he is on the verge of mental breakdown. All other medicines have been stopped. This is the only one that didn't commit suicide. To be cautious, we need to report to you before making a plan." He glanced at Xia beside him. Well, the implication is very obvious.
"Then tell me what you found."
Lloyd sat down on his large chair. At the same time, other military females who were very winking had already opened the guest chair for Shane. When they were about to move aside, the Imperial Admiral waved He waved his hand: "Put it next to me."
All the subordinates were stunned. They thought that the young master was just here for a visit, but they didn't expect their boss to bring him into the main control center.Although Xia En, if there is no accident, will soon be the nominal supreme commander of this legion.But right now he is just a juvenile son, entering here and seeing them shows that the general trusts him very much, but now, the boss actually wants to keep him to listen to the latest developments?
Although this matter is directly related to the young master, who doesn't know that Shane Looster is a second-generation ancestor who has no brains. If the news leaks from him, wouldn't their work be in vain?
This is incredible!
The worms didn't dare to ask more questions, Qi Qi unconsciously looked at the female worm behind the table, until he nodded impatiently, and then reluctantly accepted his order and executed it.
Anyway, within a few minutes, the ancestor would feel bored and clamor to go out for air.They are not afraid of any secrets involved, just avoid the important ones and talk about the minor ones.
They comforted themselves so much, they never expected to be slapped in the face soon.
"We have checked the weapons used by these killers. They are all common on the black market. They come from a wide range of sources, are easy to obtain, and are difficult to trace. The toxin samples you provided have been tested and failed to match any products on the market."
"So we searched other databases and found no relevant records. Dr. Linton found his old acquaintance in a research institute under the Imperial Academy of Sciences. After comparison, the other party confirmed that this is the same as the neural network that their laboratory is still developing. The toxins are very similar."
"The insects that can be exposed to toxins have been checked"
"Naturally. The management of the laboratory is very strict, and there is no problem with their background. The only suspicious thing is that the laboratory had a very serious central system failure in the past six months, and it is said that it took three days to recover. If these killers use If it is the toxin developed by the laboratory, it is very likely that it was obtained in this malfunction."
"What about the data from the Federation?"
"Three laboratories have similar research and development projects. However, due to the authority, we cannot get the specific ingredient list and cannot verify it. The corpses left at the scene are not useful."
"Check the first few on the list of the Black Market Mercenary Association. Focus on 'Captain Philip' and them. If anyone can take such a big list, it must be them."
"I checked."
Hawke smiled:
"They have been active in Algern recently, and they seem to be normal. I also checked the other ones, and I listed all suspicious ones in the report. Actually, Admiral, having said that, the easiest way is to find out from that Captives are not only efficient and accurate, but also save insect and material resources."
He pointed to his dark circles, looking as if he had been tortured miserably: "I don't even dare to video chat with such a dignified appearance."
"—what method?"
The little blond male who had been listening quietly interrupted suddenly, startling Hawke. He turned his head to look at Xia En who was looking at him with round blue eyes, and couldn't help thinking, "The male insect is really good-looking ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Ah, I am in love, I want to touch him, ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah, sigh, but explain it very calmly:
"Young master, have you ever heard of mental power attacks? It's not the common bending of spoons, or the kind of mental power blades, it's more powerful, just use mental power to ask questions."
What he said was quite subtle, but as a male insect, Xia En understood it as soon as he heard it:
"It's almost impossible, isn't it? If I remember correctly, mental strength can only be done with a B+ or higher."
It wasn't a problem when his big brother was around.Although the use of powerful mental power to directly attack the mental image and even destroy the opponent's mental core, or use it for mental torture to extract confessions, has always been controversial in the Zerg society, but in war, the means to achieve the goal are never bound by morality.From Hawke's words, it can be heard that this is not the first time.
"Hey hey, young master, although the use of mental power of the army females is very lame, but there is a big killer in the Looster army!"
He nuzzled at Lloyd, and smiled so ghastly that it made the worms shudder:
"After so many years, building two more layers of prison cells will not be able to accommodate the female insects who have been tortured by the admiral hehehehehe."
Lloyd didn't speak, he was still flipping through the report, as if looking for more doubts.But Xia En glanced at his calm side face, and suddenly realized the reason why the female didn't answer the call - his mental power was too exhausted, and he would not be able to interrogate him in a short time!
This is the result of the inspection report stamped by Major Jie, who is very skilled in medicine.Not to mention, his original treatment was less than half.If you want to force it again, it may be the result of fainting again.Lloyd is so smart, it's impossible for him to do such a stupid thing that hurts himself!But it seems a bit difficult for him to say that he can't do it in front of his subordinates.
Sean rolled his eyes slowly, listening to the other worms continue to report to Lloyd. Finally, he looked at his watch. It was getting late, and in more than two hours, the entrance and exit of the base would be closed.
"Lloyd, can I go and see that bug?"
The blond-haired Xiaoxiongzi pushed away the chair and stood up, his face full of interest.
In contrast to this, there was the expressionless grief and indignation on the faces of the other military females. Xia En translated it manually, which probably read: Don't make trouble!Hurry up and take a rest to cool off!Please, bypass us!
No matter what the other worms thought about Xiao Xiongzi's sudden interest, Xia En's request was of course granted.He was taken to the strictly guarded interrogation area. After passing layer after layer of guards with live ammunition, through the one-way glass, he finally saw the murderer who attacked him a few days ago.
After removing all the worm items, the worm in the uniform and special clothes sat in the room expressionlessly.He is very ordinary, the type who doesn't leave any impression on the worm.
They are well-proportioned and have slender limbs. Generally, female insects with alienated wings are like this—the exception is Lloyd, who is strong and strong.Dr. Linton said that his mental picture was on the verge of collapse, and judging from his vacant eyes and unresponsiveness to any external temptation, it should be true.
but……
Xia En rubbed his chin, observed the other party through the glass, and felt that something was wrong.The spirit is about to collapse, isn't it just poking and poking anything?Can you still not speak any extra words?This is a bit counterintuitive.Hmm, but he also really didn't understand the difference between a Zerg breakdown and a human breakdown, maybe?The young master who read a little bit felt that his head was going to be bald.
Lloyd stood beside him, also carefully looking at the female killer.Usually this is not a problem, but the dull aching mental core is like a reminder, laughing at the mistakes he made due to anxiety before.
Mental power is his biggest advantage over other generals who are equally outstanding in battle.This is his secret weapon, which has been kept very carefully in a very small area.Except for the comrades-in-arms and subordinates who get along day and night, everyone who knows is dead.
While he was contemplating, the blond boy suddenly moved.He walked towards the entrance and gestured for Hawk to open the door.
The red-haired female looked at Lloyd hesitantly. After receiving the nod from his heroic superior, she stepped forward to enter the password and completed the authentication. cell.
The cell is not big, and after five or six females are stuffed in, it looks a bit cramped.Lloyd signaled Hawke and the others to back out, and the other party blinked:
"Little Master..."
"I am here."
The admiral of the empire was calm and did not hesitate.Hawke could only swallow the unspoken advice. As we all know, the admiral is allowed to question, but after he gives the answer, there is no room for negotiation.So he could only silently say "Such a good-looking male will not have any accidents, absolutely not, absolutely not, absolutely not, I would like to use my three-year salary to make a wish to the gods to keep him safe" and left the cell.
Lloyd closed the one-way glass so it couldn't be seen from the outside.
"Young master, let's begin."
Xia En tilted his head and looked at the female beside him with a puzzled expression: "What?"
"Already 1940."
The female worm looked down at the worm terminal on her wrist and reported the current time:
"Or, actually, do you really want to experience the accommodation conditions in a military camp?"
Xia En shook his head decisively: "Never!"
"There are no extra worms here."
Lloyd pointed to the female worm sitting behind the table with special restraints tied around her neck, wrists, and ankles: "You can use your mental power with confidence."
"........."
The blond male stared at him with dissatisfaction, and after a while, he suddenly asked, "Where did I expose myself?"
"The cemetery."
The female spit out short words: "At first I was just skeptical, and then you invaded my mental picture."
"No female has ever noticed my intrusion. What's more, you were unconscious at the time." Xia En raised his head and stared at the military female in front of him.
"An invasion is an invasion, and there will always be traces." Lloyd noticed the unwillingness in the young man's words and explained.
"Lloyd, you do have two brushes."
The young master was silent for a while, then suddenly withdrew his gaze, and exclaimed with emotion:
"I think I'm very skilled in technology, and I don't lack practice, but I didn't expect it to be in your hands."
"Until now, it was just a suspicion," Lloyd said.
Xia En's admiration had just risen when he was choked by this supplementary explanation.Depend on!He was actually tricked!
"There is no better evidence than your own confession. I recorded the conversation just now. According to the regulations, if a male worm invades the mental image of another worm without permission, you will be fined at least, and you will have to stay in prison for at least three months." Prison."
"Perhaps Admiral Lloyd would like to give us each other a chance."
Grinding his teeth secretly in his heart, Xia En pointed to the killer in front of him who hadn't responded since they came in:
"I deal with him. You deal with the recording."
"Deal." The female readily agreed.
In fact, the fundamental purpose of Xia En's proposal to look at this worm is what Lloyd understood-since an admiral is unable to implement it due to illness, he, a useless snack, will do the hard work of "spiritually" performing a "spiritual exercise" on their captives. power inquiry".
Considering the future cooperation, Shane does not intend to continue to hide his true mental strength from Lloyd.But right now, the result of the confession has been achieved, but the process is a bit unsatisfactory.Xia En couldn't express his anger, so he could only maintain a cold and businesslike attitude, walked towards the silly looking female, and slowly stretched out a hand in front of him.
The other party did not respond to his approach.Xia En went one step further until his fingertips touched his forehead.
In Lloyd's view, Xiao Xiongzi remained in this position for 2 minutes without moving. Two minutes later, the blond boy withdrew his finger quickly and eagerly.
"Oh, so dirty, so dirty..."
He grinned and shook his arms back and forth, as if something dirty was on them, which made him very uncomfortable.
He turned around muttering, the female's heart skipped a beat, and she strode forward to push him away, blocking him and the female killer.Never turn your back on the enemy, this is an instinct that has been deeply baked into Lloyd's bones after enough lessons.He was ready to fight back, and his steel-like arm moved forward, intending to crush the target's skull with a palm.
But nothing.
After being interrogated just now, the female insect was still sitting there quietly, stiff as a sculpture, his expression was in a trance, his eyes were blank, and the next second, this cold body fell straight to the side with a "bang", Startled the two insects.
"—what did you do to him?!"
The author has something to say:
Starting from today, I will be a little fatter for 3 days~~ Because the plot is relatively concentrated, it feels weird to take it apart (also trying to climb the list)
Thank you readers for subscribing!
"That's right. It's been delayed for two days, so I can only catch up with the process."
Shane understood what he meant.According to the established plan, they will leave for Red Hart next Saturday, which is exactly a week from today.For seven days, Lloyd had to deal with his relatives, the killers assassinated in the cemetery, the daily administrative affairs of the Legion, and other temporary things (including various trivial matters related to Sean) before leaving.In this way, they really don't have much time to waste.
However, Xia En raised the corners of his lips, crossed his arms, and squinted at Lloyd: "Will it be useful for me to go?"
His tone was mocking and his eyes were provocative.He was sure that Lloyd understood exactly what the phrase meant and why.
"This is your right." The female worm replied.
Attitudes change pretty quickly.Xia En didn't speak, just stared at the worm in front of him.Whether he goes or not is his choice; and Lloyd, as his guardian, whether to ask or not has something to do with how he views Xiaoxiongzi.This is also the reason why Xia En would rather give orders to those military females under the guise of orders than directly wake up Lloyd and serve as his savior.
It was this arrogant female who disrespected him first.Naturally, he would not take the initiative to ask for help.Anyway, he is capable of saving himself.
This point was at the heart of their quarrel.Obviously, the not-so-stupid general of the empire reacted quickly after waking up, and immediately made corrections.
"Wait for me five minutes."
Xia En retracted his legs, got up from the sofa, and accepted the olive branch extended by the female.
"Little Master!"
cried Lloyd suddenly.Xia En turned his head inexplicably, only to see that the other party grabbed his arm, pushed him to the sofa next to him, then half knelt down by himself, and opened the box in his hand.
It's a medical kit.
Xia En couldn't help but look puzzled, until the female soldier skillfully opened the medicine bottle, took out the cotton swab for disinfection, put it aside, and then came over and touched the bandage around his neck.
For the sake of beauty and privacy, at the request of Xia En, Jie used a bandage that simulates the texture of the skin and can automatically adjust the skin color. If you don't look closely, you won't find it at all.However, Lloyd seemed to have the ability to see through, and he just pressed the edge of the bandage and peeled it off.
On the young man's slender neck, the scar from being strangled deeply by the rope has healed up a lot after two days.It's just that the remaining ones, against the background of smooth and delicate skin like jade, still look terrible.
"Here...does it still hurt when talking, drinking, and eating?"
The older female made no secret of his worry, and her usually ruthless eyes were also very tender and soft at the moment.
Xia En froze, and the place touched by the female insect's fingers instantly became hot, and the other party's subwoofer-like voice was deep and magnetic, and it penetrated into his ears like a small insect ran in. The itching and discomfort made him restless .
"It's a small wound, it's not going to be a problem for a long time."
Xia En quickly reacted, pushed the army female carelessly, and wanted to get up and run away.
"No, it needs to be disinfected again."
Lloyd frowned, suppressing his intentions with one hand without saying a word.He gently rolled the edge of the unhealed wound with a cotton swab dipped in medicine. In contrast to his firm tone, his extremely careful and meticulous movements.
"What is Jie doing? It's too early to change the dressing, didn't he remind you?"
The female worm's tone was gentle for only two seconds, but soon became harsh again.
Xia En breathed a sigh of relief: "Uh, it seems that he requested communication, but I accidentally slipped my hand... and then I forgot."
Besides Franz, Yuri, and Sean's exclusive family doctor, Jie's job is actually the chief medical officer of the First Fleet of the Looster First Legion.It's just because for nearly a thousand years, the captain of the First Fleet, that is, the head of the Looster Legion, has been the Duke of Looster, and it is well known that the Grand Duke Looster is basically in the legion. For better healing effects and convenience, the same It has almost become an unwritten rule that only worms serve as both.
Jie is a very responsible female, and she will never forget the matters in her field of work.But he still has a public job, so naturally he can't just look at Xia En all day long.After dealing with Lloyd's injuries that day and observing for enough time, he returned to the First Fleet's station in Bruskay.The follow-up treatment of Xia En's wound can only be done through remote supervision.
So at the little young master who was afraid of trouble, he got the result that the communication request was ruthlessly rejected N times.
Lloyd glanced at Xiao Xiongzi with displeasure. He knew his little tricks well, but his hands were lighter because of his inadvertent trembling. Therefore, the processing of this book can be done in a few minutes. In the end, it took a full ten minutes.
When the new bandage was finally attached, Xia En took a long breath, jumped up from the sofa impatiently, and ran to the door:
"I'm going to change clothes!"
Seeing his urgency as if he was fleeing for his life, the admiral of the empire couldn't help shaking his head.
More than ten years have passed, and the young master is still like this, impatient as always, sitting there quietly is torture and punishment for him.Like this, how do you mess around in the political arena of the legion?After all, any formal meeting starts in half an hour, and there is no upper limit...
Ten minutes later, Shane stepped into the military base of the First Fleet of the Looster Legion in Bruskay.
Like all other males, he has always been insensitive to these things, so although his family specializes in this, this is his first experience in military bases in the past 20 years of living in this world.
You said the previous graduate trainee?
That's different.That time, he just boarded the warship on a shuttle from the ground after it left the port, and his first impression of the First Fleet was only on the huge and beautiful starship design.And for more than a month after that, he was either wringing his fingers to figure out the arrangements for the warship to stop at the port along the way, or looking for potential bedmates in the military female next to his elder brother to pass the time. How could he give other things such as A superfluous look at the size of the warship, its configuration and equipment, and its organization?
As soon as he entered the gate of the base, Lloyd was called away by the worm. Before leaving, he arranged for a guide to give him a tour guide, and said that he would go back as soon as he went.Reminiscent of his communicator that has been beeping (the magic sound pierced his brain for several days), Xia En graciously accepted his arrangement.
The guide at the reception was respectful to the heir to the title of Looster, and after a brief visit to the open area, he arranged for Xiao Xiongzi to the VIP lounge for external reception.Immediately, after receiving the news, Xia En's military females on the First Fleet who had flirted with each other rushed over if they had time to get away.
They were very enthusiastic about Shane. Out of some natural compensation and affection, they piled up almost all the delicious and new and interesting things that they could get in the base in the short time Lloyd left. in front of him.Some of them are bold and hearty, and even rely on their military ranks to occupy the nearest position to him, implying that they want to continue the front line.
Xia En has no hobby of turning back.Boring is boring.But he has always been a good lover, so he kept being cooperating with Tofu with a smile, and refused with the excuse of "busy family affairs".
"Ken, can we have a private chat?"
The tall army female with black hair and black eyes put Xiaoxiongzi's drink on the table and was about to exit with a tray.At this moment, Zhong Xiongzi, who is holding the moon among the stars, stopped him.
The envious and jealous eyes of the females focused on Ken, and those who had a better relationship immediately made various booing sounds.Xia En took Ken's hand as if fleeing to the outside.Although it is a military base, the living area here is not perfunctory, with lush trees and flowing water fountains.The two worms walked casually in the small garden near the reception area, chatting about trivial things in life by the way.
When it comes to chatting, as always, it is Xia En who is talking.Because of the experience in his previous life, Xia En is very good at communicating with other people/bugs about topics without depth.This is useful anytime.
Ken listened quietly and patiently to the blond boy talking about the latest popular news, anecdotes, and gossip. If two insects.
After the fleet returned to the voyage, the two worms separated at the port, and there was no contact after that.Xia En couldn't help but be surprised that the worm he once hugged became like this.It shouldn't be because of Yuri's departure. In the last week of the voyage, the female worm seemed to have adjusted her condition.
In addition, as the communication officer of the First Fleet, he must have been closely interrogated in Red Hart. It is normal to be under a lot of pressure, but the review has ended, and he has successfully returned to Bruskay as the first batch of military females. The truth is still so concerned.
Xia En is afraid of trouble and is very willful, but he treats these female insects who have had skin-to-skin relatives with him, even if they meet again and don't remember their names, they can still greet them gently and meticulously.At the same time, I am also happy to help them solve some minor troubles within the scope of my ability.
"Ken, what happened?" Sean stopped by the fountain and asked.
Unexpectedly, the black-haired army female shook her head silently. He looked down at the young man, with a slight gleam in his black eyes:
"Young master, you don't have to bother to say so many words. I understand that you just need a reason to get out."
"Oh, we're still so smart!"
After being exposed, Xia En admitted generously: "Thank you for saving me! I owe you once!"
"That was not what I meant!"
The forced smile on the corner of Ken's mouth and the brilliance in his eyes gradually faded, and his voice was full of bitterness: "You are too polite...so polite that I am a little...unaccustomed to it."
The two worms face each other, and the atmosphere is a bit awkward.Sean scratched his face, sat down on the bench beside the fountain, and patted the empty seat beside him:
"Take a break."
Ken sat down obediently, as if to make up for the abruptness just now, this time it was Jun Nu who took the initiative to speak:
"Actually, after you were attacked, I was very worried about your situation, and I almost sent you a message. But thinking that the general is by your side, I feel that my worries are unnecessary. The general is an S-rank female insect, and no insect can Hurting you right under his nose."
"really."
Xiao Xiongzi, who had witnessed the scene of Lloyd's battle with his own eyes, nodded in agreement:
"As far as that is concerned, he is very reliable. Other than that, he has a lot of stink problems. Too controlling, and very self-righteous, tsk tsk, this kind of personality trait I have only seen in males before, no matter what gender , are quite annoying."
"Ken, it's amazing that you have tolerated him for so many years as his subordinates!...Have you ever spoken ill of him in private? I remember you called him something like a demon, a robot bug, a war element, etc... ..."
Sean looked at Ken mockingly, trying to activate the dead energy in the bug.Unexpectedly, a trace of loneliness flashed across the eyes of the female insect, and then he lowered his head and replied in a slightly low voice:
"Admiral is indeed very strong, which is an essential quality of a leader. But he is only right about things, not about people. He is the first to demonstrate the training content, marching standards, and military regulations he implements. Although everyone complains, But I am very convinced from the bottom of my heart. As for some complaints that are not pleasant to listen to, it may be because they have done the same wrong thing. Although the marshal is angry, he will still take everyone's face into consideration. It’s big, and you can hear it clearly through the door. So there will be some ugly words spread.”
"Actually, I don't like the general very much in terms of personal feelings. But I admire him. I have always admired him. Before coming to the Looster Army, he was the goal of my struggle. He made me believe that hard work will pay off. If you get rewarded, you can control your destiny in your own hands. But now I understand that the truth is correct, but worms and worms are always different..."
The black-haired female insect sighed and fell silent for a long time.
Shane didn't speak.He could tell that Ken didn't want to be questioned or comforted, he just needed to listen.
After a few minutes of silence, the female who kept her head down seemed to have finally sorted out her emotions.He sat up straight, turned his head and smiled at the blond boy, the warm and peaceful Ken that Sean was familiar with returned:
"Anyway, I was very happy to see you before I left. Thank you."
"Can I give you a hug?" The black-haired, black-eyed female looked at him expectantly.
Inexplicably being thanked by the worm, Xia En was at a loss, but the next request was too easy to satisfy.He generously opened his arms and hugged the female's waist. At the same time, the other woman hugged him back tightly, with great strength, as if instinctively absorbing something to survive after falling into the water.
From this action, Xia En really felt Ken's reluctance and love.No matter who the worm who is willing to love is, it will not affect the warmth and goodwill that have always existed in their relationship. This kind of thing that originated from the female worm is very precious, and it is rare among so many dewy love affairs.
He wanted to ask a few more questions about "leaving", but at this moment, a young military female ran up the side path, and Ken immediately let go of his arms.
"Young master, the general is back!"
Shane and Ken hurried back to the lounge, Lloyd picked up Xiao Xiongzi and led him to another passage without saying a word.According to the sign next to it, they went all the way to the core of the base.Obviously, after dealing with urgent matters, Lloyd finally freed his hands to deal with the real goal of their trip.
The further you go in, the stricter the security.After going through multiple authentication checkpoints, the two worms came to the core of the military base - the main control center.
The offices of senior military officers are also scattered around here.And when they arrived, several military females were already waiting outside the office of the deputy chief of the legion.
"Admiral."
The leader was the shortest, with red hair, and looked very young. When he saw Lloyd, he tiptoed and saluted.
Lloyd took the portable tablet optical computer he handed over, and walked towards the room while quickly flipping through the report submitted by the other party, and quickly frowned: "Hawke, this is your two-day report. progress?
"We tried all kinds of interrogation methods, and there was really no other way."
The coercive field of the female immediately spread, and under the admiring eyes of the female behind, the red-haired army female followed without fear:
"Dr. Linton said that he is on the verge of mental breakdown. All other medicines have been stopped. This is the only one that didn't commit suicide. To be cautious, we need to report to you before making a plan." He glanced at Xia beside him. Well, the implication is very obvious.
"Then tell me what you found."
Lloyd sat down on his large chair. At the same time, other military females who were very winking had already opened the guest chair for Shane. When they were about to move aside, the Imperial Admiral waved He waved his hand: "Put it next to me."
All the subordinates were stunned. They thought that the young master was just here for a visit, but they didn't expect their boss to bring him into the main control center.Although Xia En, if there is no accident, will soon be the nominal supreme commander of this legion.But right now he is just a juvenile son, entering here and seeing them shows that the general trusts him very much, but now, the boss actually wants to keep him to listen to the latest developments?
Although this matter is directly related to the young master, who doesn't know that Shane Looster is a second-generation ancestor who has no brains. If the news leaks from him, wouldn't their work be in vain?
This is incredible!
The worms didn't dare to ask more questions, Qi Qi unconsciously looked at the female worm behind the table, until he nodded impatiently, and then reluctantly accepted his order and executed it.
Anyway, within a few minutes, the ancestor would feel bored and clamor to go out for air.They are not afraid of any secrets involved, just avoid the important ones and talk about the minor ones.
They comforted themselves so much, they never expected to be slapped in the face soon.
"We have checked the weapons used by these killers. They are all common on the black market. They come from a wide range of sources, are easy to obtain, and are difficult to trace. The toxin samples you provided have been tested and failed to match any products on the market."
"So we searched other databases and found no relevant records. Dr. Linton found his old acquaintance in a research institute under the Imperial Academy of Sciences. After comparison, the other party confirmed that this is the same as the neural network that their laboratory is still developing. The toxins are very similar."
"The insects that can be exposed to toxins have been checked"
"Naturally. The management of the laboratory is very strict, and there is no problem with their background. The only suspicious thing is that the laboratory had a very serious central system failure in the past six months, and it is said that it took three days to recover. If these killers use If it is the toxin developed by the laboratory, it is very likely that it was obtained in this malfunction."
"What about the data from the Federation?"
"Three laboratories have similar research and development projects. However, due to the authority, we cannot get the specific ingredient list and cannot verify it. The corpses left at the scene are not useful."
"Check the first few on the list of the Black Market Mercenary Association. Focus on 'Captain Philip' and them. If anyone can take such a big list, it must be them."
"I checked."
Hawke smiled:
"They have been active in Algern recently, and they seem to be normal. I also checked the other ones, and I listed all suspicious ones in the report. Actually, Admiral, having said that, the easiest way is to find out from that Captives are not only efficient and accurate, but also save insect and material resources."
He pointed to his dark circles, looking as if he had been tortured miserably: "I don't even dare to video chat with such a dignified appearance."
"—what method?"
The little blond male who had been listening quietly interrupted suddenly, startling Hawke. He turned his head to look at Xia En who was looking at him with round blue eyes, and couldn't help thinking, "The male insect is really good-looking ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Ah, I am in love, I want to touch him, ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah, sigh, but explain it very calmly:
"Young master, have you ever heard of mental power attacks? It's not the common bending of spoons, or the kind of mental power blades, it's more powerful, just use mental power to ask questions."
What he said was quite subtle, but as a male insect, Xia En understood it as soon as he heard it:
"It's almost impossible, isn't it? If I remember correctly, mental strength can only be done with a B+ or higher."
It wasn't a problem when his big brother was around.Although the use of powerful mental power to directly attack the mental image and even destroy the opponent's mental core, or use it for mental torture to extract confessions, has always been controversial in the Zerg society, but in war, the means to achieve the goal are never bound by morality.From Hawke's words, it can be heard that this is not the first time.
"Hey hey, young master, although the use of mental power of the army females is very lame, but there is a big killer in the Looster army!"
He nuzzled at Lloyd, and smiled so ghastly that it made the worms shudder:
"After so many years, building two more layers of prison cells will not be able to accommodate the female insects who have been tortured by the admiral hehehehehe."
Lloyd didn't speak, he was still flipping through the report, as if looking for more doubts.But Xia En glanced at his calm side face, and suddenly realized the reason why the female didn't answer the call - his mental power was too exhausted, and he would not be able to interrogate him in a short time!
This is the result of the inspection report stamped by Major Jie, who is very skilled in medicine.Not to mention, his original treatment was less than half.If you want to force it again, it may be the result of fainting again.Lloyd is so smart, it's impossible for him to do such a stupid thing that hurts himself!But it seems a bit difficult for him to say that he can't do it in front of his subordinates.
Sean rolled his eyes slowly, listening to the other worms continue to report to Lloyd. Finally, he looked at his watch. It was getting late, and in more than two hours, the entrance and exit of the base would be closed.
"Lloyd, can I go and see that bug?"
The blond-haired Xiaoxiongzi pushed away the chair and stood up, his face full of interest.
In contrast to this, there was the expressionless grief and indignation on the faces of the other military females. Xia En translated it manually, which probably read: Don't make trouble!Hurry up and take a rest to cool off!Please, bypass us!
No matter what the other worms thought about Xiao Xiongzi's sudden interest, Xia En's request was of course granted.He was taken to the strictly guarded interrogation area. After passing layer after layer of guards with live ammunition, through the one-way glass, he finally saw the murderer who attacked him a few days ago.
After removing all the worm items, the worm in the uniform and special clothes sat in the room expressionlessly.He is very ordinary, the type who doesn't leave any impression on the worm.
They are well-proportioned and have slender limbs. Generally, female insects with alienated wings are like this—the exception is Lloyd, who is strong and strong.Dr. Linton said that his mental picture was on the verge of collapse, and judging from his vacant eyes and unresponsiveness to any external temptation, it should be true.
but……
Xia En rubbed his chin, observed the other party through the glass, and felt that something was wrong.The spirit is about to collapse, isn't it just poking and poking anything?Can you still not speak any extra words?This is a bit counterintuitive.Hmm, but he also really didn't understand the difference between a Zerg breakdown and a human breakdown, maybe?The young master who read a little bit felt that his head was going to be bald.
Lloyd stood beside him, also carefully looking at the female killer.Usually this is not a problem, but the dull aching mental core is like a reminder, laughing at the mistakes he made due to anxiety before.
Mental power is his biggest advantage over other generals who are equally outstanding in battle.This is his secret weapon, which has been kept very carefully in a very small area.Except for the comrades-in-arms and subordinates who get along day and night, everyone who knows is dead.
While he was contemplating, the blond boy suddenly moved.He walked towards the entrance and gestured for Hawk to open the door.
The red-haired female looked at Lloyd hesitantly. After receiving the nod from his heroic superior, she stepped forward to enter the password and completed the authentication. cell.
The cell is not big, and after five or six females are stuffed in, it looks a bit cramped.Lloyd signaled Hawke and the others to back out, and the other party blinked:
"Little Master..."
"I am here."
The admiral of the empire was calm and did not hesitate.Hawke could only swallow the unspoken advice. As we all know, the admiral is allowed to question, but after he gives the answer, there is no room for negotiation.So he could only silently say "Such a good-looking male will not have any accidents, absolutely not, absolutely not, absolutely not, I would like to use my three-year salary to make a wish to the gods to keep him safe" and left the cell.
Lloyd closed the one-way glass so it couldn't be seen from the outside.
"Young master, let's begin."
Xia En tilted his head and looked at the female beside him with a puzzled expression: "What?"
"Already 1940."
The female worm looked down at the worm terminal on her wrist and reported the current time:
"Or, actually, do you really want to experience the accommodation conditions in a military camp?"
Xia En shook his head decisively: "Never!"
"There are no extra worms here."
Lloyd pointed to the female worm sitting behind the table with special restraints tied around her neck, wrists, and ankles: "You can use your mental power with confidence."
"........."
The blond male stared at him with dissatisfaction, and after a while, he suddenly asked, "Where did I expose myself?"
"The cemetery."
The female spit out short words: "At first I was just skeptical, and then you invaded my mental picture."
"No female has ever noticed my intrusion. What's more, you were unconscious at the time." Xia En raised his head and stared at the military female in front of him.
"An invasion is an invasion, and there will always be traces." Lloyd noticed the unwillingness in the young man's words and explained.
"Lloyd, you do have two brushes."
The young master was silent for a while, then suddenly withdrew his gaze, and exclaimed with emotion:
"I think I'm very skilled in technology, and I don't lack practice, but I didn't expect it to be in your hands."
"Until now, it was just a suspicion," Lloyd said.
Xia En's admiration had just risen when he was choked by this supplementary explanation.Depend on!He was actually tricked!
"There is no better evidence than your own confession. I recorded the conversation just now. According to the regulations, if a male worm invades the mental image of another worm without permission, you will be fined at least, and you will have to stay in prison for at least three months." Prison."
"Perhaps Admiral Lloyd would like to give us each other a chance."
Grinding his teeth secretly in his heart, Xia En pointed to the killer in front of him who hadn't responded since they came in:
"I deal with him. You deal with the recording."
"Deal." The female readily agreed.
In fact, the fundamental purpose of Xia En's proposal to look at this worm is what Lloyd understood-since an admiral is unable to implement it due to illness, he, a useless snack, will do the hard work of "spiritually" performing a "spiritual exercise" on their captives. power inquiry".
Considering the future cooperation, Shane does not intend to continue to hide his true mental strength from Lloyd.But right now, the result of the confession has been achieved, but the process is a bit unsatisfactory.Xia En couldn't express his anger, so he could only maintain a cold and businesslike attitude, walked towards the silly looking female, and slowly stretched out a hand in front of him.
The other party did not respond to his approach.Xia En went one step further until his fingertips touched his forehead.
In Lloyd's view, Xiao Xiongzi remained in this position for 2 minutes without moving. Two minutes later, the blond boy withdrew his finger quickly and eagerly.
"Oh, so dirty, so dirty..."
He grinned and shook his arms back and forth, as if something dirty was on them, which made him very uncomfortable.
He turned around muttering, the female's heart skipped a beat, and she strode forward to push him away, blocking him and the female killer.Never turn your back on the enemy, this is an instinct that has been deeply baked into Lloyd's bones after enough lessons.He was ready to fight back, and his steel-like arm moved forward, intending to crush the target's skull with a palm.
But nothing.
After being interrogated just now, the female insect was still sitting there quietly, stiff as a sculpture, his expression was in a trance, his eyes were blank, and the next second, this cold body fell straight to the side with a "bang", Startled the two insects.
"—what did you do to him?!"
The author has something to say:
Starting from today, I will be a little fatter for 3 days~~ Because the plot is relatively concentrated, it feels weird to take it apart (also trying to climb the list)
