Chapter 52 Military

Just then, the dormitory doorbell rang.

Shang Jingrong on the other end of the phone also heard it, and he quickly asked, "What's wrong? Are the military here?"

"Xia Yi, don't do anything stupid. How long have you been training? Crossing a magnetic storm zone is no joke! Although male insects are rare, there are more than ten A-level male insects serving in the military left in the imperial capital. Why did they choose you? You bully the weak and fear the strong!"

Where Shay couldn't see, Ome showed up as a small figure, with two slanted horizontal lines touching each other at the bottom on its square head, clearly showing a frowning expression.

It said to Euphemia: "How could there be a whistleblower?"

"Xia Yi must go to Houston. Otherwise, according to the original path of this plane, Enoch's mind will go berserk in the wormhole. Although he kills the mother star beast, he will also be assimilated into the star beast!"

A star beast with super high military power, able to switch freely between complete insect transformation and human form, having lost its sanity but retaining its wisdom!

He became the nightmare of the entire Zerg.

Under his leadership, the Zerg made a comeback and devoured the Zerg's painstakingly built empire in less than a decade.

"No, no, I have to tell Shay."

Euphemia stopped Ome from revealing himself. "This plane is the best developed world to date. Enoch's υSP value is currently at a safe level, and he is not inherently dangerous."

"Besides, based on the two of you've been discussing this, how do you know Shay doesn't want to go? You also have to trust the host you've chosen. His mental strength is incredibly strong." Euphemia sighed. "Think about the previous world. Excessive interference might just cause rejection from the world's original will, ultimately backfiring. Let's wait and see what happens."

Thinking of Lan Xiu who had the memories of his previous life in the previous world, Ome was overwhelmed. If the executor had not been lucky, he might have been snapped in half by Lan Xiu as soon as he arrived.

It was terrified when it went to report to the Lord God, but fortunately this time the Lord God found a senior for it!

It nodded weakly and followed Euphemia obediently.

In the room.

"Thank you, Xiaorong." Xia Yi said softly, "But Enoch is still on the planet Houston."

The doorbell rang again.

Xia Yi's heart began to beat rapidly, but he was not afraid.

If I really want to find a reason, it should be missing you.

After hanging up the phone, Shay opened the door.

Standing outside the door was a tall military woman in a dark navy suit. Seeing Shay open the door, he placed his hand on his chest in a gentlemanly manner and bowed slightly, "Excuse me for disturbing you so late at night, Your Excellency Shay."

"I'm Murray Webster, and I'm here to take you back to the main house on the orders of the head of the family." His gray pupils were exactly the same as those of Major General Enoch, but the tails of his eyes were elongated, making him look more romantic than the serious major general.

Xia Yi was stunned. He didn't expect that the person who came was someone from the Webster family.

Murray Webster noticed the male insect's surprise and explained sympathetically, "Well, I'm Major General Enoch's cousin. Several invading star beasts have been discovered on the main planet. The master is worried about your safety and has sent me to take you back."

"Your clothes are ready. Is there anything else you need to pack?" He raised his hand and glanced at the terminal. "It's getting late. We'd better leave early."

Shay picked up 02, and Murray couldn't help but sigh in his heart when he saw the chubby robot in the male insect's arms.

But he looked as elegant as ever. He helped the male insect onto the hovercraft and considerately reminded him to fasten his safety rope.

Male insects are the delicate, non-reproductive sex.

But I didn't expect that Enoch would fall into the hands of such a male insect.

As expected, the frenzy of the spiritual sea is the fate that every female insect has to succumb to.

Murray sighed in his heart, and then he heard the male insect, who had been silent until then, suddenly speak up: "Mr. Webster, could you please take me directly to the military headquarters?"

"The military headquarters is already sealed off at this time, Lord Shay." Murray frowned slightly. "That's not a place for male insects to play around freely."

"I know, sir," Shay replied. "You were in a hurry to take me to the main house late at night, so it should still be open."

"The route into the main urban area has always had a speed limit, but you are now driving at 400 miles per hour. Did you apply for a special route?" Xia Yi's gaze fell on the window. The main star was clearly brightly lit, but it was very dark outside the window. This route was much higher than the usual civilian route.

"To avoid the bugs in the military."

After being interrupted by Shay, Murray chuckled softly: "Now I know why Enoch likes you. Before he left for the battle, he specially returned to the main house to ask the head of the family to protect you."

He changed the subject: "But little male insect, the battlefield is not the place for you to be a hero. Even well-trained female soldiers can die in battle, and you haven't received formal training, and you haven't even joined the army yet."

"Going to the battlefield is not your responsibility. Some of the military's idiots are desperate and are trying all sorts of methods. They don't dare to offend a military hero with a family background. Do they really think our Webster family is free of idiots?"

"No, Mr. Webster," Shay said anxiously. "Publicly, I signed an enlistment agreement when I enrolled, so I must obey the military's orders. Personally, Enoch is still on Houston, and I..."

"Oh..." Murray drawled out his words, "Charging a thousand miles for love?"

"I'm so jealous of Enoch." Murray shook his head. "Not only does he have S-level physical fitness, but he also got to meet such a cute sweetheart."

He clicked on the bug terminal, which displayed the name of Major General Enoch.

Xia Yi's eyes lit up: "Is it Enoch?"

Murray shook his head: "He doesn't have internet right now. I just sent this to him in advance. It's mine—"

"Disclaimer."

As soon as he finished speaking, the aircraft changed direction.

"Xia Yi, I don't want him to come to my doorstep when he comes back."

Xia Yi's face suddenly turned red.

——

Accompanied by Murray, Shay entered the gate of the military headquarters. The insects inside were in a hurry, obviously because the war was urgent and the military was under great pressure.

Wright Grover was the officer who sent bugs to "pick up" Shay today. When he heard that his bugs had failed, he secretly cursed Shay's cunning.

Who knew that Shay would come to the door on his own initiative, bringing the Webster family's bugs with him.

Are you here to ask for an explanation?

Remembering Admiral Art's instructions, Wright quickly straightened his collar and went to meet them in person.

"Are you Lord Shay?" Wright complimented him, then greeted Murray. Then, he said, "We've received news from the front lines that the mother insect can control magnetic storms, allowing high-level male insects to pass through."

"The technical department believes that we can use this as an opportunity to open the magnetic storm circle and allow warships to land."

"It's just that high-level male insects are really rare, and there are even fewer with Lord Shay's strong mental strength who can drive a mecha alone..." Wright showed an embarrassment. With the Webster family's insects around, he certainly wouldn't use his power to oppress Shay. Instead, he spoke in a high-sounding manner.

"And Major General Webster is also on the Houston planet. He was previously transferred off the front lines due to a mental frenzy. You will definitely be able to comfort him if you go there."

Murray's eyes sharpened. "Captain Grover, are you saying that the military has dispatched a female soldier with a frenzied mental sea as the commander of this expedition?"

Before Murray retired, his position was equal to Grover's, so it was unclear whether calling him "superior" was a compliment or a mockery.

"Or are you more informed and have already learned about the current situation on the Houston planet? The commander is defeated, his spiritual sea is going berserk, and he urgently needs a male insect to comfort him?"

Wright's expression turned grim. Appointing Enoch Webster as the commander-in-chief was an order issued by the marshal, and he certainly didn't dare to question it. The fact that the planet Houston was currently blocked by a magnetic storm was known to the entire galaxy. If he knew the situation, wouldn't it mean that he was involved with the Star Beasts and was a traitor to the empire?

He just wanted to use the story of Major General Enoch's mental frenzy to scare Shay and force him to agree to go to the Houston planet. Who knew Murray would want to put such a big accusation on him!

Webster is indeed a scorpion from the same nest, with venom on his tongue.

He opened his mouth to say something when Murray continued, "But His Excellency Shay is concerned about the battlefield, and he and Major General Enoch are deeply in love. He has volunteered to go to the front lines, willing to take the risk as an A-rank male insect and pilot a mecha to dispel the magnetic storm caused by the mother beast, thus providing the necessary conditions for the Second Military District's warships to land."

Murray spoke fluently, as if he had prepared a speech in advance. He then looked at Wright with a smile and said, "Since Lord Shay is so righteous, the Webster family is willing to dispatch its own soldiers to escort Lord Shay together with the army."

When Wright heard that Shay was willing to go to the front, before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he heard Murray praising Shay highly. Originally, he wanted to use the agreement that Shay signed when he enrolled in school as an excuse, but now it turned out that Shay took the initiative to go to the front.

"What do you think, Commander Grover?"

Light forced a smile. "Of course, every high-ranking male insect is a treasure of the empire. If Your Excellency Shay is willing to risk his life, the military will certainly dispatch elite troops to escort you."

After Shay and Murray left, Wright, with a gloomy face, called Admiral Art and said, "Admiral, there's a change of plan. The Webster family has noticed, and our original escort team will have to be replaced."

"Besides, Shay came to the military headquarters on his own initiative. Many bugs saw him, so the prepared notice cannot be sent out." Wright added that the female soldier he sent just now did not pick up Shay, and he had already decided to label Shay a "deserter."

After all, when he first entered school, his grade was not high enough, but he signed an agreement to go to the front line.

Although this incident does not have a big impact on the male insects, it can also tarnish the reputation of the Webster family behind it.

An old voice came from the other end: "Why are you so anxious? He's a male insect cub who has never been on the battlefield or seen a star beast, and he thinks he can be invincible just because he can pilot a mecha."

"The battlefield is constantly changing. Who can predict it?"

"I just received news that Murray Webster is also going to the Houston planet. With his escort, the male insect may really be able to break through the magnetic storm circle. I heard from the parliament that the mental power of this male insect is different from that of ordinary insects. If..." Wright said.

If Xia Yi awakened S-level mental power, that would be a level that even the Insect Emperor would need to meet him in person. If he offended an S-level male insect, his fate would be extremely ugly.

"Even if he manages to reach Houston, the scorpion may not be able to make it there," the voice continued. "They are bound together by the sea of psychic energy. The death of the female monarch has a huge impact on a developing male insect... Wright, you know that, don't you?"

Wright's expression froze, and he knew that the admiral was warning him. He quickly collected his thoughts and responded in a low voice.

"You're going with me this time."

The old voice said so.
