Chapter 56: Catch her and have a few babies for me, so that bastard will be driven mad...
Lavezzi is on vacation, spending time with his wife during her period. He's in a great mood and is thinking about having a second child.
Lu Qi's message arrived at this time.
His heart skipped a beat. Logically speaking, during his vacation, a sensible Alpha would never bother him.
"What is it? I'm on vacation! Lord Luchi, please check the time, it's so late... What! Who's lost!" Lavezzi exclaimed in shock, immediately starting to change his clothes.
The wife asked, puzzled, "What's wrong? What's missing?"
Lavezzi, devastated after hanging up, cried out, "It's His Majesty's little girlfriend! Lost again! How could she lose that?!"
The security for Shi Wei's travels was arranged by him personally, and it was no less secure than the security level for His Majesty's travels. Also, is the Fran Empire's intelligence agency dead?!
His wife looked at him with pity: "You're dead."
It looks like she might be getting a new husband.
Lavezzi left in tears, rushing off to rescue the person.
Thanks to Shi Chuan's reminder, only a few of the people who came later were bitten. Fortunately, His Majesty's guards were very capable, and Miss Moran's financial power was also in place—they worked together to clear out more than two hundred venomous snakes.
Shi Chuan was discovered early, and medical personnel promptly administered antivenom, saving his life.
Prada, who was twisted in two, wasn't so lucky. Luckily, he was an S-class Alpha, otherwise he wouldn't have survived until the others arrived and would have been soaked in the repair fluid on the spot.
They're still hanging on by a thread.
Shi Chuan regained consciousness quickly, but could provide very little information. No useful information was found at the scene—the restaurant had already been thoroughly inspected, and the snakes had deliberately damaged the pipes and their escape routes were random, interfering with their judgment.
There were traces everywhere, making it impossible to determine their escape route.
The most frustrating thing is that shortly after the incident, it started raining in the small town—washing away all traces of the event.
Miss Moran acted decisively, contacting Lucy and getting Prada into the best hospital in Fran.
However, agents from Fran's intelligence agency stepped in and offered to take over the matter.
The beautiful young woman, now a wealthy man, was furious: "How could something happen on our turf? Kidnapping someone right under my nose?"
Completely disregarding the fact that they were in a foreign country, she demanded that the person in charge of her family in Fran negotiate directly with the Fran government—only cooperation was allowed, not interference.
The Tira family's largest business in Fran is the optical computer market, which also includes some communications businesses, and they have a certain network of connections.
With Miss Moran holding firm to the pressure, the intelligence agency is temporarily unable to intervene.
The security agency acted very quickly; Luzi and Lavezzi arrived almost simultaneously.
Luzi inspected the scene, while Lavezzi inquired about Prada's condition at the hospital.
With two of Sklag II's most trusted confidants arriving directly, the Fran Empire dared not interfere any further, and the intelligence agency temporarily ceased operations.
The Chiang family.
Jiang Chuge asked curiously, "How could this be kidnapped? Who did it?"
Since this matter really had nothing to do with his family, he could watch the show with a clear conscience, but Prince Cyril and his uncle both had sullen faces.
“It’s not hard to guess. Who it was last time, it’s the same person this time,” Jiang Guyuan said, sighing. “Lavezzi is desperate and asked me to take care of his wife. His Majesty is truly furious this time.”
Jiang Chuge said carelessly, "Luckily, Lavezzi didn't go this time, otherwise he would be half-dead. I heard that the S-class Alpha may be paralyzed from the waist down for life."
Cyril, unable to contain himself any longer, said, "Can you shut up? This happened in Fran, do you even know how many people are involved?"
The Emperor was angry because of this. Last time something happened in the Manla Starfield, as long as it was brought under control, it could always be found.
But this time is different. The Fran Empire has a good relationship with the mercenaries, and Shi Wei may have already arrived in the Chaotic Starfield.
Jiang Chuge said earnestly, "Your Highness, don't worry. The mercenaries went to such great lengths to capture her in order to extort money from us. As long as Your Majesty obediently pays the money, they will release her."
Cyril's expression froze. He knew his worries were a bit too obvious, but Shi Wei was just an Omega, and no one knew how those people would treat her.
He had been to Moonfall Star, read the report on the kidnapping, and even knew that a male snake-man both loved and hated Shi Wei.
Jiang Guyuan shook his head and said to his nephew, "Yi Lan's personality isn't one that can be easily satisfied with money. His Majesty is also in a lot of pain right now. He certainly doesn't want to bow down to the mercenaries, but Shi Wei is in their hands—"
"Sigh—" Jiang Chuge also sighed and said, "Then it's over. Manra will definitely suffer a huge loss. His Majesty's once-in-a-century true love, are you just going to watch her die?"
The trouble lies here: Yi Lanhua has put so much effort into this scheme, he's bound to take a big bite out of Manla. This forces His Majesty to choose between sacrificing the interests of the empire or sacrificing the people he loves.
Cyril was worried about this.
Asta's bedtime fairy tales tell the following story: "A wise and powerful emperor in his youth fell in love with his son's wife and, disregarding etiquette, made her his empress. However, as the emperor grew older and became senile, amidst the chaos of war, he chose to let the woman he loved commit suicide."
The young Charles I, listening to the story, said: "That means he didn't love enough!"
Asta said, "Idiot! You just gave away the territory I worked so hard to conquer?"
Emperor Charles, his neck stiff with pride, declared, "I will take it back!"
Asta sneered: "What if they want half of your country?"
Emperor Charles: "Who is so shameless!"
After receiving the communication from the Chaotic Starfield, Lu Qi also wanted to curse, "How can there be such a shameless person?"
He hesitated for about half a day before secretly calling Jiang Guyuan, Aker, and the two princes over.
The six people took a deep breath as they looked at the ten conditions that Yi Lan had set for him, which were quite outrageous.
Similan was the first to erupt in fury: "Has he no shame? Does he even know how to do business? Is this how you demand ransom?"
Throughout history, kidnappers have always demanded ransoms that are just below the victim's psychological limit. For example, if the victim only has a net worth of 100 million, and you demand 50 million, the victim will probably grit their teeth and accept it.
You're asking for 100 million right away, pushing people to the brink of despair. How can such a deal possibly go through?
Jiang Guyuan was also a little surprised when he saw the list: "This shouldn't be the case. He's done this kind of thing quite a lot before, so he should be very skilled at pricing. No one would agree to these demands."
Tariffs, trade volume, prohibited lists, and star-source materials... these can no longer be measured in monetary terms.
Aker stared wide-eyed and said, "Five hundred Truth Ships? I can only muster about eight hundred of these large starships! Is he really not joking? Even His Majesty couldn't sell them for that price!"
Jiang Guyuan coughed.
Only Similan, furious, chimed in: "He kidnapped the old man and offered this price. I might as well choose between Cyril and me to ascend the throne."
Lu Qi coughed.
Although these two battlefield-loving Alphas spoke harshly, they were basically telling the truth: the price was outrageous. Lu Qi said, "They must have left us room to negotiate, but even a 50% discount is still outrageous."
Jiang Guyuan thought for a moment and said, "I'll talk to him."
"Can you negotiate the price?" Lu Qi said. "Or should we have the Minister of Commerce talk to him?"
Jiang Guyuan shook his head: "Don't talk about this outside for now."
The Jiang family's connections extended beyond Manla, and Yi Lan soon received the news.
He looked at Shi Wei, who was still unconscious, and smirked, "The Jiang family will help you too, I never expected..."
"Shall I see it?" the female officer asked.
"Get him out of here." Yi Lan said disdainfully, "Do you think I, the commander of the six armies, can be met by some nobody like him?"
After saying that, he picked up the soaking wet Shi Wei, patted his bottom, and left.
The female officer replied indifferently, telling him to clean up the mess.
Who would abandon billions of dollars worth of goods, disregard his six armies, and come to kidnap an Omega?
She didn't seem to be cursing; she just wanted to die.
Upon receiving the word "get lost," Jiang Guyuan shrugged and said, "Forget it, let His Majesty talk to him. We can't understand the thought process of this lunatic."
Several people, carrying the daunting ransom terms, went to see His Majesty with great anxiety.
Upon seeing the list, King Scolag II remained silent for a moment. Just when everyone thought he was about to explode, he spoke up: "He's playing a trick on me, playing mind games."
Let's see if he can keep his composure.
“Send him a communication: the terms are negotiable, but I need to confirm Shi Wei’s safety,” Sklag II said.
Someone took the order and left. Similan looked at his father, whose eyes were bloodshot, and said, "I'm going to the Chaotic Starfield."
Cyril turned to look at him and saw that Similan's eyes were firm. He wanted to say something, but Jiang Guyuan stopped him.
King Sklag II shook his head: "If we can't pinpoint Yi Lan's location, there's no point in you going... No, take 20,000 men, bypass the Fran Starfield, go around from Kash Star, and wait here."
He pointed to a coordinate on the star map, and Jiang Guyuan's eyes widened.
Cyril exclaimed in horror, "That was...the main battlefield of the Deep Blue War back then, Father, you think—"
The War of Deep Blue was the largest war between Manra and the mercenaries. Scolag I launched a surprise attack on the Chaotic Starfield, forcing Asta to abandon the Eastern Front and redeploy troops to defend it. Both sides suffered heavy losses in this battle.
However, this battle also successfully prevented the mercenaries from expanding eastward and curbed Asta's attempt to break through the defenses of the three major star systems.
King Sklag II glanced at the conditions and said coldly, "These things are enough to fight two Deep Blue Wars."
Lu Qi twitched his lips. Although Shi Xiao's life was likely to be lost as soon as war broke out, for them, his subjects, it was better for His Majesty to fight a war than to be slaughtered directly.
Cyril looked at His Majesty's clenched fist and sighed: "Smiran, I made an S-class mecha for Jiang Chuge a while ago. It's actually quite suitable for you. You can take it and use it for now."
Similan accepted it without hesitation; he might not even survive this trip anyway, so why not take it?
His older brother was actually willing to give his younger brother such a good thing; Shi Wei really has a lot of face.
Jiang Guyuan didn't say anything. If Simanan died directly in the Chaotic Starfield, the Jiang family would give away an S-class mech for free.
It is clear that no one is optimistic about His Majesty's plan, but no one is trying to dissuade him.
It was so frustrating. Shi Wei was lost twice, and both times she was abducted despite being heavily guarded.
Where is Manla's dignity?
When Shi Wei woke up in a daze, she saw a naked man... Huh?
She clearly saw a black snake when she fainted—
Damn it, she should have killed Bai Xiao by any means necessary back then.
The Bai siblings, neither of them are good people; they tricked her twice!
She rubbed her head, feeling extremely dizzy, and could only hear footsteps and feel a warm breath near her ear:
"You're awake? How about that? Surprised? Unexpected?"
It was a male voice, unfamiliar, but after listening to it, it felt somewhat familiar.
Shi squinted and looked over, seeing a tall young man wearing a gray shirt. His hair was dark red, and his eyes were green. He looked like he had just taken a shower, as his hair was still a little wet. The shirt was unbuttoned, revealing his tanned chest muscles.
If she hadn't been so dizzy, the situation would have been quite awkward.
Seeing her looking dazed, Yi Lan waved her hand in front of her eyes and asked in confusion, "Hey! Are you awake? Do you know who I am? Do you know what's wrong with you?"
He looked relaxed and at ease, not at all like a scheming kidnapper.
Shi Wei rubbed her forehead, looking confused, and asked, "Who are you? And who am I?"
Yi Lan was extremely surprised. He turned her face towards him and asked, "Don't you remember who you are?"
Shi Wei pretended to have amnesia and shook her head.
Yi Lan looked somewhat troubled. He looked at Shi Wei, frowned, and said, "You are my fiancée. We went out together a while ago, and you were in heat, but I wasn't by your side, so you fainted."
Shi Wei slowly opened her mouth wide, unsure how to continue her story.
Yi Lan's eyes were smiling, but her tone was incredibly gentle: "It's alright, it's okay to forget about it. Now that I'm here with you, let's do it!"
Shi Wei's mouth was agape. No, how could there be such a shameless person?
The other person touched her face, looking concerned: "Why is your mouth open? Are you going to give me oral sex?"
Shi Wei immediately shut her mouth.
Yi Lan casually ripped off his shirt and said, "Oh, I forgot you have amnesia. You used to really enjoy giving me oral sex. Come on, let me teach you..."
"Get out!" Shi Wei finally couldn't hold back anymore.
The other person seemed very patient, shirtless, and easy to talk to: "You don't like this because you have amnesia? It's okay, I'll give you oral sex!"
Shi Wei kicked him, unable to bear it any longer: "Yi Lan, are you fucking crazy?!"
The red-haired man laughed loudly, grabbed her foot, and slapped her bottom. Seeing her embarrassed and indignant expression, he said, "Stop pretending! Why don't you stop pretending now!"
With such a disparity in strength, Shi Wei gave up struggling and began to survey her surroundings. To her dismay, she discovered that she seemed to be on an aircraft, still in flight.
The other person released her, sat on the bed, and said lazily, "Don't look. This is the Chaotic Starfield. We'll arrive at Grasshopper Fortress in an hour. Don't rush."
Why is she in such a hurry? That's not what she's anxious about.
Shi Wei looked at him, and surprisingly felt as if he had finally caught her. She took a deep breath and asked, "You've caught me, but what about the others?"
Yi Lan shrugged: "I don't know. I didn't catch them myself. It was those snakes. They're really clever; they smuggled you out of the sewers—"
He widened his eyes slightly when he saw it, then looked down at his clothes.
Yi Lan laughed even harder: "When they gave you to me, you were covered in filth and grime. I washed you several times, and I even got my own clothes dirty in the process..."
Shi Wei smelled her arms and legs in despair. They smelled nice, like mugwort, but after what this guy said, she felt like she smelled bad.
Being smuggled out of the sewer was even harder for her to accept than being stripped naked and bathed by Yi Lan.
Yi Lan said mischievously, "Why don't you go get your stomach pumped? What if you accidentally swallowed some on the way?"
"Ugh—" Shi Wei could no longer hold it in and began to gag.
This guy even asked, "What's wrong? Are you pregnant?"
Shi Wei felt nauseous and heard him mutter to himself, "Then can I ask for double the ransom?"
She retorted irritably, "I'm not pregnant! You kidnapped me just to demand ransom from His Majesty?"
Yi Lan hooked her skirt and nodded: "What else?"
Shi Wei sighed: "I'm just an ordinary person, worthless."
“I know.” Yi Lan smiled and untied the bow on her waist, saying, “But King Sklag II likes you; you are his weakness.”
Shi Wei said with a blank face: "There's a saying in Fran: every wrong has its perpetrator and every debt its debtor. You bullied an unarmed Omega like me, which is really not something an Alpha should do. If you want revenge, wouldn't it be better to go directly to His Majesty?"
Yi Lan tied a crooked bow, thought it was ugly, so he hugged her and took it off and re-tied it: "But I can't beat him."
Shi Wei was furious: "Shouldn't you reflect on your own shortcomings if you can't beat him? Why don't you try harder? What kind of skill is it to bully me? Go and work hard for another ten or twenty years, beat him, flatten Manra, and dominate the universe!"
Yi Lan finally tied a not-too-bad-looking bow, kissed her cheek, and said under her disdainful gaze, "But he's older than me, his family is wealthier, and he was born a crown prince. How can I compare to him? I'm just a nobody!"
Before Shi Wei could say anything more, she heard him say, "By kidnapping you and making him bleed, I can avoid ten years of hard work. It's more cost-effective—"
She was furious, but she had no choice but to say, "What if he doesn't agree?"
Knowing this guy as she did, she knew that His Majesty wouldn't let her off easily unless he suffered a serious injury.
"Tear you up," said the handsome, devilish red-haired youth. "Or send you to breed. I can't work for nothing."
Shi Wei felt a sense of despair: It seemed she was doomed.
Yi Lan kissed her lips and encouraged her, "Cheer up, Weiwei. I still have high hopes for you. That jerk likes you a lot, and he might actually agree."
"How much money do you want?" Shi Wei began to struggle: "If it's not much, I'll think of a way..."
Shi Chuan is quite good at saving money; if all else fails, you can borrow some.
Yi Lan smiled and said lazily, "It would probably take ten thousand of your brothers to pay off the debt."
Shi Wei broke down and said, "Am I really worth that much? Brother, do you even know the market price?"
Yi Lan's expression changed, and he said seriously, "You can't question my understanding of kidnapping. My price depends on the strength of the party paying. If it were your brother, two or three billion would be enough, but he's the richest person in Manla. How much do you think you're worth?"
Shi Wei started to sob.
It turns out that the darkest moment of her life wasn't when she was caught by the security bureau, but when she was caught by this guy.
The National Security Bureau at least has a tiny bit of reason to it, but these guys are completely inhuman when it comes to profit.
"Or you could come with me, have a few kids for me, and drive that bastard crazy, then I'll spare your life?" the red-haired man said casually.
"Get out!" Shi Wei cried as she kicked him.

Author's Note: Neither His Majesty nor Shi Wei likely imagined that Yi Lan captured her just for fun...

Goodnight, muah~
