Chapter 19 Arriving in the Northern Territory, the dual identities overlap, making the Northern Territory military female...
Wei An finished the last bite of cake and felt somewhat satisfied.
Yitulan's gaze was always gently on him, and when he finished eating, he naturally handed him a napkin.
"My lord, what are your plans next?" Yitulan asked softly. Although he already had a guess in his mind, he wanted to hear Wei'an say it himself.
Wei An took the napkin and wiped his mouth, then leaned back into the soft sofa, his dark eyes calm.
Outside the window, the neon lights of the central star field gradually light up, outlining the outline of a bustling city, but beneath this prosperity, undercurrents surge.
"Ituran," Vian began.
If I stay in the central star field with Ituran now, I will be annoyed to death by these people. It is better to deal with it calmly. There will probably be fewer people by then.
Moreover, he had been planning to visit his relatives. If it weren't for the accident, he would have been in the Northern Territory by now. It was really not easy.
"Let's leave for the Northern Territory as soon as possible. My vacation has just begun."
Yitulan's light blue eyes lit up slightly.
The official announcement about Wei'an's promotion to A-level male insect was jointly released by the Xiongbao Association and relevant departments of the Empire, which once again caused a sensation on the Star Network. Wei'an was almost regarded as a legend in the forum of the Imperial Military Academy.
Everyone is eager to know what kind of male insect this A-level male insect is.
Wei'an and Yitulan, however, have gotten rid of these troubles and have embarked on their journey to the Northern Territory again.
This time, they were on Ituran's private starship.
Yitulan's eyes were full of anticipation. He was very happy to be able to take his lord to the Northern Territory. Even while driving the flying ship, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips.
Wei An had been staring at his female lord, and he also noticed it and wanted to do something bad.
A condensed thread of mental power playfully extended from the fingertips and gently hooked Itulan's finger.
Yitulan directly grasped the mischievous thread of mental power, feeling the warm power contained in it, which was completely different from his own but extremely compatible with his own. A gentle smile appeared in his light blue eyes.
"Heroic Lord."
Wei'an was bewitched by Yitulan's gentle voice, his ears turned red, he retracted the thread of mental power and became serious.
After several jumps, the starship finally arrived at the core jurisdiction of the Northern Border Defense Force.
The scene seen through the porthole is completely different from the prosperity of the central star field.
There are no endless man-made cities or constant commercial shipping routes here.
Instead, there are huge military space stations that lie dormant like steel behemoths, and interstellar fortresses that appear and disappear in the distance and are used for early warning and defense, with well-trained female military teams shuttling between them.
Occasionally, a patrol fleet painted with the Northern Territory military emblem would pass by in an orderly manner, exuding a sense of cold, orderly solemnity.
The vast mountains are silent, covered with severe frost, forming the background of the northern region.
The northern region is grayish white and pale blue.
The starship slowly docked at the main port of the Fourth Legion Space Station in the Northern Territory.
The hatch opened, and a cold air with a unique metallic and low temperature rushed in, which cheered Wei An up.
At the port, a team of female soldiers had already lined up and were waiting.
They were dressed in neat Northern Territory Army uniforms, with epaulettes indicating different ranks, but each of them stood straight with sharp eyes, emitting a sharp aura formed by years of garrisoning on the border.
When these cold-blooded military women saw Ituran and Wei'an, who followed closely behind him and had black hair and black eyes and a gentle but unignorable temperament, awe and curiosity could not help but appear in their eyes.
Is this the Admiral's Hero? That kid Tuan wasn't lying. The Admiral's Hero actually came to the Northern Territory.
So is he really an A-level male insect?
Many female soldiers were feeling excited.
The leader was a female soldier with a calm expression and bright eyes. He stepped forward and saluted.
"Admiral Ituran, Your Excellency Vian, welcome to the headquarters of the Fourth Legion of the Northern Territory. Everything has been arranged as you instructed."
He was none other than Lieutenant Colonel Ryan, who had been in charge of technology on the Ituran starship. He had obviously arrived earlier and was ready.
Yitulan returned the salute with the same clean and neat movements.
"Thank you for your hard work, Commander Ryan."
He turned sideways and introduced Wei An.
"My Lord, this is Lieutenant Colonel Ryan. He also participated in the last operation and is very capable."
Vian smiled and nodded. He remembered Ryan, who was part of the last rescue operation.
"Lieutenant Colonel Ryan, I'm going to trouble you next."
His attitude was natural and appropriate. He did not have the condescending attitude of some male insects in the central star field, nor did he show timidity due to being in the military camp. His gentle aloofness made people feel very comfortable here.
Lieutenant Colonel Ryan was obviously a little flattered, but he quickly calmed his expression and spoke calmly.
"It is our duty to serve you and the Admiral, Your Excellency, please rest assured."
The female soldiers behind him also saluted in unison, their movements in unison, their eyes passing over Wei'an filled with uncontrollable curiosity and respect.
Vian followed Ituran downstairs.
The surface vegetation in the northern region is sparse, mostly consisting of cold-resistant and drought-resistant tundra plants and low shrubs.
It is now deep summer in the central star field, but the temperature here is very cool.
In the distance are rolling mountains and a huge military base complex.
To be fair, this all looks quite shocking.
Yitulan kept observing Wei'an's expression. Seeing that he had no negative emotions, he felt relieved and walked carefully holding Wei'an's hand.
The residence is located in the heart of the base's officers' quarters. It's a two-story, independent building with a simple, rugged style, yet boasts a high level of security. The surroundings are quiet, with no other distractions or other intruders visible.
"Considering your status and preferences, the Admiral has specifically ordered a quiet area to be designated around you," Ryan explained. "Daily security will be provided by the absolutely reliable personal guards, who will not disturb you in any way. Daily supplies will be delivered regularly, and if you need anything else, you can always notify me through the inside line."
Wei An was very satisfied with this arrangement. He really needed a quiet environment to continue to adapt to and explore his improved mental power, while also being able to avoid unnecessary attention.
Entering the house, the interior decoration is also simple, and it should have been renovated with practicality and comfort as the main focus. However, the style of many decorations and furniture inside is very similar to that of the home in the central star field, and Yitulan's intentions can be seen in the details.
The living room is covered with thick and soft carpets, the sofa is furnished with comfortable cushions, and there is a balcony with an excellent view, from which you can see the training ground in the distance and the more vast natural scenery.
"Do you like it?" Yitulan asked, a subtle nervousness in his tone. After all, this place couldn't compare to the luxury of the Central Star Region.
Wei An looked around and smiled genuinely.
"I like it very much. It's very quiet and suits me very well."
Wei An walked up to Yitulan, looked up and kissed his chin.
"Thank you, Ituran, it's nice here."
Yitulan's ears turned slightly red. He put his arms around Wei'an's waist, buried his head in the crook of his neck, and took a deep breath of the orange scent that made him feel at ease.
"As long as the Lord likes it."
Ryan and the others left after sending Vian home. Ituran stayed with Vian in the room to rest.
Yitulan went to the kitchen, and Wei An stayed in the living room to check the computer.
In a short period of time, the optical computer accumulated a large amount of information. Wei An found the invitation from the Clement family and the information requesting an appointment for a home visit.
There were also a lot of social gatherings organized by the Xiongbao Club, and even the noble male insects that the original owner hadn't contacted for a long time sent a lot of inquiries.
There was even an invitation from the Zerg King, inviting him to attend the Zerg royal dinner.
Wei An felt very fortunate at this moment. Fortunately, he escaped quickly enough. If he had stayed in the central star field, he would have had no free time during this holiday.
After replying to all the responses, Wei An closed the computer interface, slumped down on the sofa, and let out a long breath.
"Good thing he ran away," Wei An muttered softly and walked to the window.
Outside is a desolate scenery that is completely different from the central star field.
The sky in the northern region seems even higher, a clear gray-blue color with a sense of vastness and loneliness.
Ituran came over with a cup of hot tea and handed it to him.
This tea is made from the rhizomes of a cold-resistant plant unique to the Northern Territory. It has a unique and refreshing aroma and can dispel the cold from the body. The female soldiers stationed here often drink this.
"My lord, don't worry about those things." Yitulan's voice was low and reliable. "Here, you can do whatever you want. I will be with you all the time outside of military duties."
Wei An took the teacup, the warmth filtering through the walls into his palm, dispelling the slight chill peculiar to the Northern Territory. He took a sip, and the taste was unique, slightly bitter at first, but sweet aftertaste.
"I know." Wei An smiled.
"I just didn't expect that A-level would be so popular." Wei An's tone was a little self-deprecating.
"Because you are worth it." Yitulan looked at him sincerely, with undisguised pride and concentration in his light blue eyes.
"You are unique and the best male insect."
Wei'an felt a little embarrassed when he saw his eyes. This guy Yitulan definitely had a filter for him.
Putting his finger on Yitulan's lips, he averted his gaze and deliberately changed the subject: "Let's go out and take a look. You show me the way."
A smile flashed in Yitulan's eyes.
"Of course, Lord. Some areas may require permission, but the living area and some open training grounds are fine."
Wei'an was really interested in the Zerg's military training, and he didn't plan to rest, so he got up and packed up immediately.
Ituran did not alarm too many of his subordinates and only brought Ryan with him.
The interior of the base was even larger and more complex than it appeared from the outside. The passages were wide enough to accommodate large mechas, and the walls were made of cold alloy, flickering with the faint light of various indicator lights.
The female soldiers passing by were in a hurry but were very disciplined. When they saw Ituran, they would immediately stop and salute.
But when his eyes met Wei'an, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised and curious, and then he straightened his back even more.
Yitulan brought Wei'an to a huge indoor observation platform.
Through the high-strength synthetic glass, you can see the vast training ground in the distance.
At this moment, several teams are conducting coordinated combat drills. Mechas are galloping, and energy weapons are buzzing as they streak through the air, creating sparks. Although it is just routine training, the power is astonishing.
"The Northern Territory Army maintains a state of combat readiness year-round because we need to deal not only with potential alien threats, but also with the potential emergence of alien beasts in the border star regions, as well as the occasional interstellar pirates who infiltrate here."
Wei An immediately thought of the Ash Star Pirates and Cook.
"The situation here is very complicated."
"Yes." Yitulan nodded. "But please rest assured, Lord, the interior of the base is absolutely safe. We exist to form the first line of defense."
Next, they passed a medical company.
Wei'an subconsciously took a few more glances. The medical equipment inside was quite advanced, but it seemed that there was a shortage of medical staff. There were many injured people placed inside, and it was difficult to take care of them all.
Lieutenant Colonel Ryan noticed his gaze and explained, "Sir, the conditions in the Northern Territory are difficult, and professional medical insect personnel have always been in short supply, especially in the field of mental counseling... Many female soldiers can only rely on inhibitors and willpower to resist." There was a hint of helplessness in his tone.
In fact, many female soldiers who failed to find their lord could only turn into insects completely after their mental power went haywire and were driven to the battlefield outside the domain. Most of them would not wait until the final step and would commit suicide in advance.
This frost-covered land has been stained with the blood of too many military women, but this is not the worst outcome for them.
Wei An fell silent. As a student of the medical department, he now understood very well the torture that mental violence brought to female insects.
In the past, the original owner had a flaw in his mental power, but now, he has A-level mental power, so maybe... he can do something.
Ituran seemed to see what he was thinking and, not wanting to burden him too much, gently touched the back of his hand.
"My Lord, this is not your responsibility. The military has its own arrangements."
Wei An nodded without answering, but kept the matter in mind.
After the visit, Wei An returned to his residence and took a hot bath to wash away his fatigue. Lying on the unfamiliar bed, Wei An thought he would have trouble sleeping. But with Yi Tulan by his side, the familiar scent was soothing, and Wei An fell asleep quickly.
The arrival of an A-level male insect is undoubtedly very eye-catching.
Although Ituran had arranged his residence in a quiet area as much as possible and had it strictly guarded by his personal guards, human nature could not be stopped.
Curiosity, awe, exploration, prying, and even some unspeakable longings...
All eyes were focused on the independent small building.
For those stationed in bitter cold lands year-round, encountering high-level male insects is rare. Even low-level male insects are scarce in the northern region.
The halo of A-level male insects is too dazzling.
What's more, this gentleman is the lord of their General Ituran, who is known for his coldness, toughness and aloofness.
The combination of these two identities made the female soldiers from the Northern Territory extremely curious about Wei'an.
