Chapter 68
After that dance, the identity of the S-rank male insect was finally revealed.
But no matter how violent the outside world is, it has nothing to do with Yael who has turned on the offline mode.
After careful consideration, he finally decided to enroll as a student at Exon College.
——From online communication to offline communication, students can choose courses to study at will and are not bound by the school rules, which gives them a considerable degree of freedom.
After coming out of Principal Exon's office.
"It's a pleasure to work with you, Your Majesty."
Norman looked serious and shook hands with Yael. Then he remembered something and reminded him, "The military base is next to this. Do you want to stop by and take a look?"
Yael was stunned for a moment, then the smile in his eyes deepened, "Okay, Principal, please go back. We'll see you next Monday."
After saying goodbye to Norman and a group of professors, he boarded the suspended car that he had been waiting for for a long time.
"Asd, go to the main gate of the military base."
The scenery outside the window was rapidly receding, and soon it drove into an exclusive passage. Yael's fingertips touched the optical computer, and after thinking about it, he decided not to inform Caesar in advance.
But I don’t know whether the suspended vehicle had reported its license plate in advance or had already identified the identity of the bug on the vehicle, so it was able to pass smoothly from the gate to various major districts.
Nishizawa's office is located in Building A13, Zone 1, in the center, but the female may be at the training ground at this time.
Yael stopped at the intersection of two places for a while, and before he decided which way to go, there was a knock on the car window.
"?"
Yael rolled down the window and saw a fully armed female soldier holding onto the roof of the car, bending down to look at him.
"Hello, I saw you stopped here for a few minutes. How can I help you?"
Seeing who the bug in the car was, the female soldier was stunned for a moment and quickly stepped back, but she still asked, "Are you here to see Marshal Monte?"
Yael hummed and stopped him from using the communicator to report. "I can go there by myself. There's no need to report to the higher-ups to come pick me up. It's too much trouble."
"Okay, but I still need to register you."
The female soldier put down her hand and reminded the male insect, "The whereabouts of the marshal are kept secret, but today happens to be a training day, you can go to the training ground and take a look."
"Thank you."
Yael thanked him, then rolled up the car window and drove to the training ground in the direction the female soldier pointed. As soon as he stopped, a female soldier opened the car door for him.
He was led into the training ground in front of him, and after turning a series of corners he arrived in front of a metal door. When it opened, a burst of lively noise hit him in the face.
"Today is a training day, which means the four major armies will fight for different training grounds and then have collective special training. At this point in time, they should be fighting in the ring."
"The scene may be a little violent. If you feel uncomfortable, you can always call the security guard to take you to the exclusive lounge."
The female soldier explained a few words, confirmed with Yael that there was no problem, and helped close the door.
…
The place where Yer walked out was the second-floor spectator seats. There was a spacious platform underneath, but it was still too small to be used as a training ground. It should be used specifically for competitions as the military girl said.
"There have always been only the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th legions, and the marshals command the heads of the major legions and their troops. There is no honorary marshal, nor are there any troops subordinate to the honorary marshal!"
"There is no place for you in the training ground. Hurry back to Garbage Planet for special training!"
As soon as he entered the door, he heard these two shrill loud voices, followed by laughter and boos from the training ground below.
Yael frowned and took a few steps forward to the railing.
The female soldiers below were divided into several groups, and the positive and negative camps were almost clearly divided, but the numbers of the two sides were really disproportionate, and it seemed like they were practicing collective bullying and oppression.
"Hey, I'm telling you, the military has no place for you anymore. Don't be so shameless and refuse to leave. I'm almost out of patience. It's better for you to leave on your own than to be knocked down and dragged away!"
Leading the group was a female soldier wearing the insignia of the First Legion, who was looking at the silent female soldiers opposite her with disdain. Surrounding her were the elite teams of the Third and Fourth Legions.
Yael turned his eyes slightly and saw the female soldiers wearing the insignia of the New Marshals Army on the opposite side, some of whom were familiar faces.
"Stop talking nonsense."
A determined female soldier jumped onto the training platform, ignored the shouting from the opposite side, and said simply, "Just fight and it's over."
The female soldier, whose threats were interrupted, looked excited. She clenched her right hand into a fist and hit the palm of her left hand, looking at her opponent fiercely.
"You are so arrogant! I will make you lie on the ground and keep screaming!"
Is it okay?
Yael remained expressionless, but there was a hint of worry in the depths of his eyes.
This doesn't seem like a civilized competition. If someone takes the opportunity to kill her, the female soldier might be seriously injured.
He moved his fingertips slightly, and mental strength as sharp as a knife gathered in the palm of his hand, ready to lend a helping hand at the critical moment.
But then, there were several crisp and clean sounds of fighting from the audience, and soon, there were the sounds of bodies falling onto the stage.
Boom!
Yael lowered his eyes and looked down, then chuckled in surprise.
We won, without any suspense, and we won quickly.
They were known as the elite, but they were defeated by an unknown soldier... The First Legion was really embarrassed this time.
There was silence in the arena. The female soldier picked up the opponent who was lying on the ground and threw him directly onto the platform. She clapped her hands and continued, "Who else? Come up."
"Fuck! Five years have passed, and Marshal Monte's soldiers are still so powerful. Didn't they say that those who could be exiled were exiled, and those who could be exiled were exiled in the past five years?!"
"These five years of formal training are not as good as five years of chopping wood in a marginal galaxy. It's so funny. I think the quality of Anto's soldiers is not even as good as that of the Guard Company."
The ones who seemed to be talking in low voices were actually talking loudly. They were the Second Army, which had not participated in the competition from the beginning to the end, and were now taking advantage of the opportunity to speak viciously.
A female soldier from the Third Army on the stage turned pale and red. She couldn't stand this anymore. She put her palm on the edge and jumped onto the platform, "I'll do it!"
Bang, bang, bang, bang—BOOM!
Scored twice.
Yer felt embarrassed for a moment on behalf of the female soldier who had just spoken out, and then he breathed a sigh of relief and dispersed the mental power concentrated in his palm.
It looks like there is nothing to worry about, the soldiers brought by Xize are indeed powerful.
The battle below was going on fiercely and the situation was very tense. Yael was watching the battle with great interest when he suddenly heard a hesitant voice coming from below, "Your Majesty?"
He responded subconsciously, only to realize he had been discovered when he came to his senses.
All the female soldiers in the stands stopped what they were doing and almost simultaneously raised their heads to look over here.
The soldiers under Xize looked at each other for a moment, and a female soldier stepped forward with her head held high. She rushed to the audience seats in two or three steps, stopped a few meters away from him, and spoke awkwardly.
"Your Majesty, why are you here so suddenly? The guards didn't tell us in advance that you were coming. I apologize for the poor hospitality."
The female soldier, who was always taciturn and only knew how to train, was a little hesitant. It was her first time facing a high-level and extremely good-looking male insect, and he was also her marshal's lord. She really didn't know what to say.
"The marshal is still in a meeting, so he may arrive later. Why don't you sit here and wait for a while? Or do you need to send a bug to inform the marshal in advance?"
"It's okay, you guys compete, I'll just watch for a while."
Yael nodded, signaling the female soldier not to be nervous, "Just continue the game."
However, it was extremely offensive to use violence in front of the S-rank male insect. The female soldiers below froze for a moment but did not dare to continue the action.
When the atmosphere was tense, the side door of the training ground suddenly opened, and a group of officers who had just finished a meeting walked out, led by none other than Xi Ze in military uniform.
"Marshal!"
A soldier trotted forward and informed the marshal of the situation.
When the S-rank Crown was mentioned, the expressions of the officers around him changed slightly, and only Caesar chuckled, "I know."
"Good day, Your Majesty."
"Your Majesty."
Except for Anto, who was thrown out after slamming the table, most of the senior military officials were gathered here.
Yael's expression was gentle and calm. He responded to each of the greetings according to etiquette without saying a word.
After the whole process was completed, Xi Ze took a few steps forward and approached the male insect, saying in a low and soft voice, "Male Master."
"Why did you come so suddenly? You didn't even send me a message in advance."
"I was supposed to go to Exxon to meet the principal today, so I came to see you on the way. Didn't you say you had a meeting last night? I just wanted to take a quick look, so I didn't send a message."
Yael also lowered his voice a little, chuckled from his throat, and asked, "I heard that today is a training day?"
"Yes, but I should be able to get off work on time. If you don't have other plans, we can have dinner together tonight."
Hearing this, Yael's eyes lit up slightly, and he couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips, "Okay."
When there is not so much work, the female soldier's get off work and rest are still very regular. Apart from occasional field work, they usually do various trainings. However, Xi Ze still has to deal with a lot of things and often works overtime until very late.
They were talking in low voices, oblivious to the surrounding insects. Their postures were natural and intimate. It was not like the usual male and female insect interaction at all. There was no room for other insects to intervene.
The admirals of the third and fourth armies, who had originally had some ideas, immediately gave up the idea and put the method of sowing discord behind them.
Yael hesitated for a moment, thinking back to the game he had just seen, and had an inexplicable ominous premonition.
"But things seem a bit complicated now. Should we keep fighting? Then it will be too late to get to the training ground."
If we continue with the previous process of "make threats - fight a game - continue to make threats - fight another game", I'm afraid we won't be able to allocate a training ground until tomorrow.
"There is a win-lose mechanism, and it will be done soon."
西澤完全不擔心，彎了彎眼睛寬慰雄蟲道，“最多二十分鐘，就能整隊前往訓練場了。”
他們交談期間，不同軍團已經分別派了蟲上來彙報戰況。
“應該能搶到A級訓練場，幹得不錯。”
居然能在西澤那群強得變态的兵手下取得好成績，雷契爾心情大好，笑着拍了拍那個軍雌的肩膀。
反倒是另外兩個軍團，因為大言不慚地挑釁而被格外針對，幾乎全程都被壓着打，成績一片慘淡。
第三軍團上将的神色原本就有些不自然，聽完彙報後更是一臉想發火又憋着的表情，忍了又忍，還是忍不住陰陽怪氣道。
“元帥，這好的訓練場誰都想去，可不能靠……的名頭強迫其他軍團退讓啊，長久下來也無法服衆是不是？”
“有什麽壓不壓的，剛才我的兵不是打贏了？”
西澤淡淡道，直接把話裏的軟釘子擊飛了回去，堪稱油鹽不進。
“不服就繼續比，一直打到服氣為止，雙A級訓練場該是誰的就是誰的，有什麽問題嗎。”
雷契爾看熱鬧不嫌事大，在旁邊煽風點火。
“就是咯，誰拳頭硬誰就用好的訓練場，說什麽壓不壓的……對自己的兵這麽沒信心？”
“比比比，都得比知道沒有！不要讓你們長官覺得你們是一群軟腳蝦，吓一吓就不敢上場了，越是輸！越要比！”
他環顧了一眼周圍，朝那些畏手畏腳的軍雌大聲吼道，渾然不顧另外兩個上将變青的臉色，無比熟練地鼓舞着降下去的士氣。
西澤直接略過了他們，屈指敲了敲欄杆，淡聲命令道，“繼續。”
他伸手将雄蟲拉過來了一點，緊挨着看向下方的戰鬥情況，但越看臉色越差。
現在的軍雌各方面素質都遠達不到五年前的水平，毫不留情地說，甚至比不上一些跑動多的警衛。
五年的時間造成的變動太多了，幾乎徹底動搖了整個軍部的根基。
原先的第三軍上将于三年前重傷退役，新上任的雌蟲和第四軍的上将一樣背靠貴族，僅僅幾年，軍團就成為貴族子弟鍍金的跳板。
……麻煩了。
耶爾原本也沒多想看搏擊比賽，此時只是倚靠着欄杆陪着雌蟲，視線偶爾劃過旁邊幾個上将。
或許是出于禮節，又或者是怕惹怒他後被撕下一塊肉，那幾個軍雌紛紛轉開了臉，沒有一個敢和他雙目對視的。
看樣子真的兇名在外了。
耶爾默默地想，轉頭看向雌蟲時，又突然蹙起眉。
尾指傳來輕微的拉力，讓西澤從沉思中回過神來，才發現雄蟲正專注地看着自己。
“怎麽了，一直皺眉？”
耶爾借着軍裝下擺的遮擋，指尖交叉進他的指縫間，很輕地捏了一下，像是一個隐晦的安撫。
心尖像被軟軟地撞了一下，泛起一陣酸軟來，西澤松開眉心，勾了勾唇角。
“沒什麽大事，雄主別擔心。”
眼看着第三軍一直被壓着打，第三軍上将也煩躁起來，但越忍耐越是壓不住那股惱火。
眼看着就要被分配到最差的訓練場了，他脫口而出。
“元帥，要不我和您比一場，如果我贏了，兩軍的訓練場就交換來用，行不行？”
雷契爾一臉看勇士的表情，而旁邊的第四軍上将神色更是驚愕。
兩蟲的表情都只透露出一個訊息：你瘋了嗎？！
耶爾也驚了一下，随即眸光微冷，認真地看了這個軍雌的臉一眼。
旁邊的西澤平靜地擡起眼，看向對面的軍雌，“你确定嗎，哈瑞斯？”
軍雌咬緊了後槽牙，頂着兩道震驚的視線，神情狠戾地看向西澤。
“确定！怎麽，您不、敢、嗎？”
他近些年才升上來，并不是和西澤同一批畢業的，而且依靠着貴族的承托平步青雲時，恰好又處于軍部空缺的五年。
不是沒聽過希爾澤·蒙特的威名，或者說，他就是在這個名字的贊頌和崇拜中長大的。
這個名字像是無法擺脫的噩夢，貫穿了一整個軍事大學和進入軍部的時間。
而他好不容易出了頭，西澤強勢回歸後又冊封了元帥，死死地壓了所有蟲一頭。
今天就讓他親手打破自己的噩夢，又或者……被噩夢徹底打倒。
“來吧。”
西澤捏了捏耶爾的指尖表示不用擔心，才轉頭簡潔道，“一場定輸贏。”
兩軍将領要親自下場比試，這種場面可不多見，場內的軍雌一陣嘩然，迅速将場地空了出來。
“好多年沒見過這個場景了，說起來還挺懷念的……”
雷契爾喃喃道，眸底卻閃過一絲狂熱。
場下，西澤直接脫了外面的軍裝外套，露出淺綠色的襯衫來，襯衫下擺紮入皮帶中，清晰地勾勒出勁瘦的腰。
他神情平靜，将襯衫袖子挽到了手肘下，解開了領口的扣子。
而沒等比賽開始，對面的哈瑞斯已經猛沖了上來，來個想先發制蟲。
但第一記重拳被一只有力的手輕易接下——
砰砰砰砰砰！！！
砰砰砰砰砰砰砰砰！！！
軍雌的相搏基本拳拳到肉，酣暢淋漓地展現着無比強悍的力量，幾乎是活生生的暴力美學。
看臺上的耶爾突然眉心緊蹙，往前觀察了一下西澤的動作，沒發現有停滞或不自然才稍微松了口氣。
雌蟲的膝蓋受過洞穿傷，後來雖然愈合了，但難保不會留下什麽後遺症，如果因為劇烈打鬥而複發就不好了。
旁邊的雷契爾還以為他是擔心希爾澤，出聲寬慰道，“冕下別擔心，元帥的近戰可是很強的，當年他一挑三個軍團長都輕松贏了。”
想起當年被揍得鼻青臉腫的熊樣，他心有餘悸地打了個寒顫，幾乎有些不忍看第三軍上将的下場。
耶爾卻沒有被安慰下來，神色仍然緊繃，突然低聲道，“可是已經過了五年了。”
雷契爾愣了一下，突然明白過來雄蟲是什麽意思。
五年，雌蟲忍受了整整五年漫長而殘忍的磋磨，血肉一度被磋磨殆盡，幾乎每一根骨頭都被折斷過。
那五年的經歷慘烈至極，就算再強也一定會受到影響，錯過了黃金治療階段，醫療再怎麽發達也很難徹底恢複。
在他們交談間，臺上的交手已經過了幾輪，雖然還沒有分出最終勝負，但有眼睛的蟲都能看出雙方的實力差距。
身處戰鬥中心的哈瑞斯額角冷汗都出來了。
他不斷試圖加快攻擊速度，但幾乎每一個招式都會被及時打斷，越打越憋屈，越打越煩躁。
這種試探不出對手深淺的心驚，還有處處被壓制的無力感，沒打幾個來回就消耗掉了他的激情，肉眼可見的失誤越來越多。
“專心。”
西澤微一側身，躲開了一道莽撞的攻勢，伸手托住了雌蟲的上臂帶着他轉了回去，帶着一點教訓口吻道。
“近年戰争是少了，但體能訓練不能落下，尤其身為領頭者，更是不能懈怠。”
哈瑞斯氣喘如牛，看着面前軍雌平淡的臉愈發惱火，低吼一聲再次沖了上去。
“要你教我？！笑話！”
西澤眼珠微動，分出一絲注意力看向觀衆席，果然見到耶爾擔憂的神色，當下也沒了耐心。
“那你自己度量吧。”
他不鹹不淡道。
和語氣完全相反的卻是他的動作——
軍雌眸光倏地狠厲，照着哈瑞斯的腦袋猛地飛踢過去，健碩有力的大腿肌肉倏地緊繃，修長的黑色軍褲被拉扯到了極致！
尖銳的破空聲響起，半空中劃過幾道殘影，堅硬的軍靴和雌蟲倉皇格擋的雙臂悍然相撞。
咔。
哈瑞斯幾乎能聽見手臂骨折的咔嚓聲響，那力道将他的胳膊生生擊錯位之後，極其刁鑽地向着太陽穴而去。
死亡的陰翳攥住口鼻，讓他幾乎窒息了一瞬，潛意識中的預警瘋狂炸響，卻絕望地發現渾身肌肉都已經僵硬，根本沒有逃脫的可能。
而在軍靴和頭骨相觸的前一刻，西澤及時收斂了部分力道，把軍雌踹得幾乎平行于地面倒飛出去。
“……呃！”
毫無疑問，如果那一腳用了十成十的力氣，他的頭會像爛西瓜一樣爆裂開，腦漿飛濺的剎那他就會瞬間死亡。
“咳咳咳……赫赫……嘔！”
劫後餘生的雌蟲頭痛欲裂，天旋地轉的眩暈感和惡心感讓他痙攣了幾下，猛地吐出一口血來。
這一腳牛逼！帥死了！！！
一旁的雷契爾無比亢奮，想要拍掌叫好前注意到旁邊專注的耶爾，又勉強壓下了喉間的聲音。
等等……他差點忘了，旁邊還有一個雄蟲。
雖然是非典型的，但審美和主流應該不會相差多少……吧？
雄蟲一般都不喜歡強悍的軍雌，覺得他們粗俗又暴力，而更偏向精致柔軟的亞雌，元帥就這麽在雄主面前展露力量，會不會被嫌棄啊？
想到這種可能性，雷契爾小心翼翼地用餘光瞟耶爾，在心裏祈禱不會看到雄蟲不好的表情。
But I saw Yael leaning on the platform in front of the railing, his body language very relaxed, his chin in his hand looking nonchalantly at the platform below.
The male insect's expression remained unchanged, but his eyes were fixed on the female insect below. When he saw the flying kick, his pupils shrank slightly, and then bright stars lit up in his eyes instantly.
Then small pink flowers bloomed all over its body.
...He was worrying too much.
Rachel took just one glance and didn't dare to look again. She moved to the side with fear all over her body.
Nishizawa stood tall in the center of the field. The intense movement just now made him sweat a little. His light green shirt was slightly damp and stuck to his body.
He suddenly raised his head and looked in the direction of Yael. The cold and hard features on his face softened a little. He didn't say anything and didn't smile obviously. Only a hint of smile appeared in his eyes.
As if it had successfully solved a problem and suppressed the restless herd of wild animals, the big snow leopard, although embarrassed to brag, still ran forward with bright eyes, straightened its back and exposed its soft fur on its chest.
Want to touch.
But it's not time yet.
Yael's heart softened for a moment, and he had to suppress the urge to touch her. He pursed his lips and smiled at the female insect.
This exchange lasted only a few seconds. Before any insects could notice anything was wrong, Xi Ze turned his head with a dull expression and looked at the soldiers below who were silent and terrified.
"Alright, assign training grounds according to combat performance as soon as possible and organize soldiers for intensive training. There is not much time left."
The intelligent system automatically calculated the winning and losing scores, arranged them, and projected them in mid-air.
Except for the soldiers of Xi Ze and the female soldiers of the Second Legion, the rest of the insects turned pale when they saw the battle results, but they couldn't beat them, and they couldn't make excuses or deny it.
"Bai Lang, assemble your troops and set off."
Xize glanced at the name above the banner, gestured to Bai Lang to lead the team, and then walked against the tide of insects towards the audience seats.
He took two or three steps up the stairs, his military jacket draped over his left arm, and restrainedly touched Yael's shoulder with his right hand.
"Master, do you want to see some specific training?"
"Is it okay? I thought it needed to be kept secret."
Yael was a little surprised, but after he came to his senses, he looked eager to try, "I want to go!"
"It's okay if it's you."
Xi Ze paused, looking a little embarrassed, and said softly, "I can show you how to drive a mecha."
We were squeezed together in the dim cockpit, and were taught hand in hand. Just thinking about it, I could tell that the motives were not pure... I didn't know if the male insect would misunderstand me, but it didn't matter if he did.
"Okay, let's try it!"
He has been in the Zerg Tribe for such a long time, but he has only seen the cool mechas in the news that he had only seen in cartoons before. The mechas here are strictly controlled and cannot be easily touched.
"Let's go, let's go."
Yael took the female insect's hand and walked out, completely unaware of the hidden meaning behind her words.
"I haven't seen you driving a mecha yet."
The author has something to say:
Rachel: So handsome!!! (slurp) But will the male insect dislike it? (worried) (turns head)
Yeye: OvO (looks calm and holds chin in hand) (actually flowers bloom all over the body)
