Chapter 121 The Mine Maze - 6 Tang Bufan puts on a bathrobe...
Tang Bufan put on a bathrobe and came out, only to see Lu Yi sitting at the bathroom door.
He paused for a moment, then asked, "What are you doing?"
"Wait for you to come out, teacher." Lu Yi said obediently, looking somewhat pitiful. "You've been missing for four days, I feel more at ease keeping watch here."
Tang Bufan's heart softened instantly, and he squatted down in front of him: "You know I did this to get the position of Zero."
"Mmm." Lu Yi gently rubbed her face against his hand.
Tang Bufan noticed that his eyes were bloodshot, then hugged his head and sniffed his scent, realizing that he hadn't showered for several days.
"You should take a shower too," Tang Bufan coaxed him. "Then take a nap."
"Will you come with me?" Lu Yi asked him.
"...I'll stay with you." Tang Bufan was actually very concerned about the chip cracking results, but the result was there and wouldn't change, so he decided to put the orc in front of him to sleep first.
Lu Yi sat on the ground looking at him: "...Give me a kiss."
He really loves to act cute. Tang Bufan smiled and leaned in to kiss Lu Yi's lips.
He had just finished showering, and his body smelled nice and was still warm. Lu Yi felt very comfortable. Only after Tang Bufan finished kissing him did he get up and go into the bathroom.
There was a wardrobe against the wall of the room. Tang Bufan went over to take a look, but it was empty. There were no clothes inside. He could only continue to wander around the room in his bathrobe. He first pulled back the curtains to take a look. The aircraft was hovering in the air, and below it was a thick layer of rainwater, like dirty ocean waves.
How wondrous. With no one watching from outside, Tang Bufan pulled the curtains all the way open. The half-glass, arched room seemed to float in the air, stretching endlessly to the distant horizon.
"Wow." Tang Bufan sat on the large bed and experienced the enjoyment of a top-tier tycoon.
As he was admiring the beautiful view from the sky, the bathroom door suddenly opened, and Lu Yi nervously poked his head out, his long, wet, golden hair draped over his muscular, tall body.
Tang Bufan looked at him, and he looked at Tang Bufan, both of them letting out a slight sigh of relief.
"...I didn't leave." Tang Bufan finally understood what he was doing.
“…Then, teacher, please say something.” Lu Yidao said.
Tang Bufan thought for a moment, then got out of bed and slipped into the bathroom through the crack in the door, much to Lu Yi's astonishment.
Lu Yi blushed and took a bath towel from the shelf to cover himself.
Tang Bufan opened the bathroom curtains and then let Lu Yi into the bathtub: "Teacher will help you wash."
“…I’m embarrassed,” Lu Yi said, blushing.
"You were just about to help me wash, weren't you?" Tang Bufan saw the bath sponge, excitedly stepped into the bathtub, and sat on the edge.
"Here you go." He squeezed the shower gel onto the bath sponge, creating a rich lather.
Lu Yi thought about it shyly for a moment, but finally mustered up the courage to remove the bath towel from her waist and sit in the bathtub under Tang Bufan's gaze.
During this time, Tang Bufan couldn't help but stare at Lu Yi's huge thing a few more times... My god, no matter how many times he looked at it, he was still amazed.
"Your teacher won't leave you. Even if I have to leave, I will definitely come back." Tang Bufan assured Lu Yi and began to bathe him: "Because you are your teacher's darling."
This is his only treasure now, and he can't let it go.
Lu Yi lowered his head slightly and remained silent. He wanted to say that sometimes whether or not Tang Bufan came back was not up to him.
Just like Tang Bufan's arrival in this world was not of his own volition, Lu Yi didn't distrust Tang Bufan; he simply wanted to hold him firmly in his own hands.
"I'm sorry to have worried you these past few days." Tang Bufan lowered his head and kissed Lu Yi's head again, not caring that his bathrobe would get wet.
A smile appeared on Lu Yi's face, and he finally lost his melancholy amidst the man's repeated coaxing.
Tang Bufan initially just wanted to enjoy the empty scenery while helping the uneasy Lu Yi take a bath, but later... the two did something a little erotic, but not the whole thing.
Midway through, Tang Bufan tried to draw the bathroom curtains, but Lu Yi held him by the waist and wouldn't let him. Facing the boundless sea of clouds and sky outside, Tang Bufan's heart was pounding. The feeling of being naked and exposed to the world was almost killing him.
Finally, Lu Yi carried him out, and the two lay on the huge bed, wrapped in white sheets, and fell asleep naked.
When he woke up, it was already late at night. There was a digital clock on the bedside table. Tang Bufan leaned over Lu Yi and looked at it. It was two in the morning. Then he put his face on Lu Yi's chest and fell asleep again.
When they woke up again, it was exactly four o'clock, sunrise. The two, who had slept very well, leaned against the bed and watched the sun emerge from the sea of clouds below them. Its orange-yellow color looked like an undercooked egg yolk.
"I wanted to say this yesterday," Tang Bufan said, sprawling out his legs and nestled in Lu Yi's arms. "We have no clothes to wear."
The wardrobe was empty, and the clothes the two had changed out of were dirty.
“I’ll ask Bren later,” Lu Yi said.
Since they had no clothes to wear, the two of them stayed in bed until the robot brought them clothes. It was an egg-shaped robot with two small mechanical arms, and it was also floating. Tang Bufan found it very interesting and praised the great magnetic levitation technology.
Bren was the middle-aged high-level orc Tang Bufan met yesterday. He gave Lu Yi a formal military uniform, while since Tang Bufan was the only sub-orc on the aircraft, he was given a set of casual clothes that the robot had temporarily modified to a smaller size. Of course, it was also new, but it was unknown whose new clothes it was made from.
Wearing a formal military uniform, Lu Yi was captivated by Tang Bufan's handsome appearance and realized for the first time that he was the high and mighty successor of the Federation. Seeing Tang Bufan staring at him, the eighteen-year-old orc blushed slightly.
Lu Yi didn't actually like wearing formal military uniforms, including suits. He found the layers and buttons all too stiff and restrictive. But seeing how much Tang Bufan liked them, he suddenly started to enjoy wearing them.
The two left the room together and took the elevator to the restaurant for a meal. There were already quite a few early-rising orc soldiers eating inside, and they all stood up seriously when they saw the two of them.
Good morning, sir, madam.
Good morning, sir, madam.
Lu Yi nodded to them, and Tang Bufan followed suit with a nod and a smile. The group of orc officers all recognized Lu Yi, so they were mostly looking at Tang Bufan. Although the man was wearing oversized casual clothes, he looked both handsome and refreshing, and even his long, loose hair seemed light and airy.
“Young Master Louis, this…” The middle-aged high-level orc not far away greeted the two of them. When they approached, he shook hands with Tang Bufan earnestly: “Hello, Madam, I am Bren, the commander of this transport mission of the Western Federation.”
"Hello, my name is Tang Bufan." Tang Bufan smiled politely at him, and then went with Lu Yi to get the buffet.
Breakfast was simple, consisting almost entirely of cooked and raw meat, with very few vegetables, just a tiny amount, and practically no one ate any. Tang Bufan picked up a bowl of lettuce salad for himself, and, adhering to the principle of getting enough vitamins, also picked up a slice for Lu Yi.
"..." Lu Yi stared at the large leaf of cabbage on his plate and remained silent for a moment.
After picking up their food, the two sat down opposite Bren. Lu Yi immediately asked with concern, "How's the chip cracking going? Have you found the location of the Rebooter?"
“The chip has a self-destruct program, but Anderson’s AI interrupted it in time, locating it in this sea area of the Asian continent,” Bren said, and a 3D map was immediately projected into the air.
The two did not shy away from discussing this in the restaurant. They had brought along elites from the Western Federation, so they could learn more about the situation.
There was a red photoelectric beacon there.
Tang Bufan was delighted that they had obtained the location information; his mine adventure had finally paid off. He then carefully examined the map in front of him and quickly recognized it: "This place... is the Zhejiang coast."
As an Easterner, Tang Bufan naturally knew more about the topography of Asia than they did. However, after he finished speaking, he secretly exclaimed that he was in trouble because the provincial divisions of the 21st century were no longer valid 1200 years later. He estimated that even if Pei Zhishu came, he would not know which "Zhejiang" he was referring to.
Fortunately, neither Bren nor Lu Yi showed any doubt. They only knew that Tang Bufan recognized this place, but had no idea that he was referring to the name of a province from a thousand years ago.
Bren looked at Tang Bufan: "After we obtained this location yesterday, we immediately had the satellite take pictures of this place. There are indeed many islands in this sea area, but there is no trace of any human base."
“The Rebooter base has a protective shield,” Tang Bufan said.
“So we sent a drone over there yesterday.” Bren said, then looked at Lu Yi: “The Eastern Federation sent a message yesterday, hoping that we can share this discovery.”
“Okay, send it to them.” Lu Yi nodded, then instructed Bren: “Contact Pei Zhishu first and unload all the supplies from the aircraft.”
In order to find the missing Tang Bufan, as soon as the aircraft arrived in the Eastern Federation, Lu Yi immediately led them to the area above the mine and strictly guarded that airspace. They finally managed to catch the small aircraft while waiting for it to run into the trap. Meanwhile, the cargo for the Eastern Federation was still packed full in the cargo hold at the bottom.
“Okay.” Bren indicated that he understood; unloading those cargoes would reduce the aircraft’s weight by more than half.
After the three finished their meal, Bren went to get busy, while Lu Yi led Tang Bufan toward the maintenance room, where the wreckage of the aircraft was located.
Tang Bufan was concerned about Anderson, so he asked Lu Yi as they walked, "How is Anderson?"
“He should have been assigned to a room by Bren.” Lu Yi reassured Tang Bufan, “Although he is a mental patient who ran away, I had already vouched for him to the Federation. He is now my adjutant on a mission.”
Tang Bufan was immediately relieved to hear this.
The aircraft was huge, as tall as a building with dozens of floors, and it was an upright egg shape, so it had many floors. The mechanical maintenance room was located at the bottom middle of the aircraft.
The two walked down a long corridor and saw a young orc with short, curly brown hair meticulously dismantling a table full of aircraft wreckage behind a transparent glass wall.
Tang Bufan had met him yesterday. Although he was a high-level orc, he was not a commander, but a researcher. Tang Bufan remembered that his name was Sirius.
