Chapter 43 Anchoring
"Admiral, Major General Webster is not in a position to—"
Accompanied by the sound of a fierce quarrel, Shay suddenly opened his eyes.
Beside him was a warm body, tall, strong, with flexible skin.
Naked!
Without time to react, Shay suddenly reached out to hug the female insect, trying to shield him from the light. The next second, his vision was covered by white.
"Get out!" At the same time, the female insect beside him turned over and covered him, shouting angrily.
"You're not wearing any clothes!" Someone shouted, hoping for chaos.
The people who rushed to the door immediately retreated.
Only Shay and Major General Webster were left in the room.
Shay didn't know whether he should be shocked first by the fact that Major General Enoch was naked in his arms, or by the pair of white wings growing on his body.
"You, you you! Me me me!" The white wings vibrated with Shay's movements, and his body became light, as if it was about to fly. Shay was so scared that he quickly grabbed Major General Enoch's arm.
"Don't be afraid." Major General Enoch's gray eyes remained as calm as ever. "They are your wings. They will be retracted in a moment."
“?!”
"Congratulations, Shay, you've grown up," Major Enoch continued, his expression unusually gentle. "You're stronger than I thought."
Xia Yi didn't know what was going on and his head was buzzing.
"Let's talk about it when we get back."
Enoch stood up, put on the pants for Shay, and picked up the clothes, but Shay's wings were still trembling and he couldn't put them on at all.
Although Shay had appeared in front of Major General Enoch with his upper body naked not long ago, he was now strangely shy.
Maybe... maybe it was because he heard something he shouldn't have heard!
"Put it on later," said Major General Enoch.
Unlike female insects who are forced to regress to their ancestral form in order to improve their physical fitness, male insects have strong mental strength, which means they are almost not in danger of going berserk. Therefore, male insects with features such as bony wings and armor often mean they are extremely powerful.
However, he heard that it usually takes about three days for a male insect to control itself after breaking out of its cocoon.
Xia Yi's fair face flushed red: "No, no, I will take them back immediately."
Human potential is infinite, and so are insects.
Two minutes later, Shay actually retracted his wings. He quickly picked up his clothes and put them on, while handing Enoch's clothes to him.
Enoch's eyes never left him as he changed.
Shay felt the heat on his face rising again.
"What's going on outside?" Shay asked.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of it." Enoch dressed neatly and left the room first. Before leaving, he told Xia Yi, "Put on your clothes. Doctor Xue will come in and examine you later."
——
"Dr. Xue, you didn't see how awful Kret's face was just now!" Ryan laughed. "And Owen Art, both father and son looked so gloomy!"
"The Major General is so infuriating, hahahaha!"
Ryan couldn't help but burst out laughing again. Major General Webster had just come out and saluted the Admiral. He then said, "Thank you for your meticulous care, Admiral. Paying attention to fertility rates and the physical and mental health of male insects is something every female insect needs to do, but I don't need to go into the specific process."
"You may not be familiar with it because you haven't done it for a long time, but no female insect wants to be disturbed at this time."
But Admiral Owen was so angry that he stormed out.
Ryan continued, "And Eric, I used to think he was quite good-looking, but I didn't expect... By the way, Doctor Xue, how is Mr. Xia Yi's test report?"
"The data is still unstable and needs to be reviewed again in two months."
At this moment, Enoch came in.
"Mr. Shay's wings are coming out again?" Ryan asked.
After the farce was over, he followed the major general into the house and saw a pair of snow-white wings that looked fluffy. Before he could see them clearly, he was thrown out by the major general.
He really lost it. He fell to the ground without even realizing it and sat down on his butt.
Enoch glared at him when he heard that, and Ryan obediently made a zipper gesture with his mouth.
"How is Xia Yi?" Enoch withdrew his gaze and looked at Xue Huanchao.
Dr. Xue sighed and projected the data on the screen.
"The baseline value is in the B-level range, and the lowest value is in the C-level range. The system's preliminary judgment is that it is at the B-level." Xue Huanchao stared at Enoch. "But look at his peak value. There were two time periods when his mental power reached this level."
"As soon as he emerged from his cocoon, he had fully feathered wings. And according to your description, he retracted his wings on his own within two minutes. This is difficult for a newly emerged male insect to accomplish." Xue Huanchao continued, "I predict that he will reach A-level, or even S-level in the future."
Ryan's eyes widened in shock. S-rank male insects! Including the two from the royal family, there were only nine on the entire main planet.
"Wow, Mr. Shay is amazing—" How many female insects will this attract in the future...
Before he could finish his words, Ryan suddenly realized why Xue Huanchao's expression was so solemn.
Among the nine S-level male insects, there is only one male insect of marriageable age, and including Xia Yi, there are only two in total.
The marriage between Xia Yi and the Major General was forced by the mastermind.
The importance of S-level male insects and F-level male insects cannot be compared.
If Mr. Shay proposed divorce at this time, Euphemia might not disagree.
"And Enoch," Xue Huanchao sighed softly, "I just collected your data. Your υSP value has dropped by 62.9%. In other words, the degree of frenzy in your spiritual sea has reached a safe range."
"You two experienced a spiritual interaction in the cocoon, and Shay's spiritual power was effective for you." He looked a little reluctant, "But I didn't expect it to be so effective. Your genetic compatibility is too high. He comforted you and anchored you."
"Do you know what spiritual sea anchoring means?"
No female insect would not know the meaning of anchoring the spiritual sea.
This means that you will no longer be able to accept the comfort of other male insects, and only his mental power will be effective on you. It is more terrifying than addiction, as he will take full control of your emotions.
"I will pledge my loyalty to him. My body and spirit have a new master."
"This is my honor, but also my sorrow."
Enoch calmly read out the words from the textbook, which were written by a female insect before her death.
He was a great scientist, but he died when he lost his anchor.
The male insect that anchored him abandoned him, and his spiritual sea completely dried up, and he gave up the ideal he had pursued all his life.
Ryan's heart also became heavy.
He knew how high Major General Enoch's self-esteem was, and he would never accept the fate of being dominated by the male insect.
"My son, whom I haven't seen for three years, you called me over this time just to hear how you fell in love?"
A voice came from the door, startling the three of them.
The person who came was Enoch's sire, Rossetti Webster.
He looked almost identical to Major General Enoch, only more fierce and thinner.
Of course, he is just as unforgiving with his mouth.
Major General Enoch glanced at Ryan, who frowned. So many things had happened just now that he had forgotten about this.
Who would have thought that Rossetti Webster, who hung up the phone faster than anyone else, would arrive so quickly?
"Also, your little male insect is heading over there."
Enoch stood up hurriedly, and as they passed each other, he heard Rossetti's snort of laughter.
"Look at what you've accomplished. It's nothing more than anchoring the spiritual sea." The scar on Rossetti's brow became vivid. "Why not break his legs and keep him by your side?"
Enoch was instantly furious, and the two insects actually started fighting in the corridor.
After searching for a long time, Xia Yi finally found the right place and saw two insects fighting in the corridor.
Smelling a familiar smell, the distracted major general was kicked in the chest by Rossetti, and he hit the special glass hard.
At the moment of impact, the hard black insect armor covered Major General Enoch's entire body, and then quickly retreated after landing.
"Enoch!"
Shay was startled and ran over quickly. Major General Enoch still had gray vertical pupils, which turned back into a round shape after blinking twice.
On the other side, the black-haired female insect retracted her legs.
"You're still distracted during a fight, tsk."
Xia Yi glared and saw a face that was almost identical to Major General Enoch's.
"I'm sorry for not being a good parent." Rossetti Webster nodded slightly and kissed Shay's hand with impeccable manners.
“!”
Xia Yi was really shocked this time. The female insect in front of him looked very young, and it was hard to imagine that this was the major general's father.
So he is meeting his nominal father-in-law now? !
"Hello." Shay quickly forced a smile, "Mr. Webster..."
After he said it, he felt something was wrong, so he changed his words and said, "Father, my name is Xia Yi. You look really young, like the major general's brother."
Now not only Enoch, but also Rossetti was stunned for a second.
How can there be such a well-behaved male insect?
Then he laughed out loud: "What a great treasure! It's a bargain for Enoch."
After Rossetti Webster left, Shay breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing that Enoch looked pale, he asked with concern, "Enoch, are you okay?"
Enoch shook his head and put his coat on the male insect's shoulders, which had two big holes in them.
Xia Yi was embarrassed. He had no choice but to wear clothes, but his wings were out of control. After he had finally folded them in, they would suddenly pop out again.
"What's wrong with me?" Shay asked in confusion. He thought that male insects would not revert to their ancestral form, and only the antennae on their heads were the symbol of being an insect.
"You've just emerged from the cocoon phase." Enoch took his hand and said, "Doctor Xue is analyzing the data. Do you want to go and listen?"
Not even knowing the cocoon-breaking period, Enoch lowered his eyes, not daring to imagine what kind of environment his little male insect grew up in.
What kind of harsh growth environment would cause a male insect to be in a state of malnutrition for a long time?
He looked down at the two slender tentacles on Shay's head.
They tremble slightly as they walk. Their bases are so slender, while the tops are cutely round, like two small furry beans.
Every step she took trembled, attracting his attention.
How could he have been so blind as to think that Xia Yi was showing weakness, trying to please, and seducing him?
He's clearly just cute.
——
"Because the values are still unstable, your mental strength level will be B in the initial upload results. Please retest again in three months and the final values will be used as the standard."
Xue Huanchao pushed his glasses up and said, "You can try using your mental power in the near future, but don't overuse it. You suddenly entered the cocoon-breaking stage last night because you overused your mental power."
"What did you do?"
Xia Yi lowered his head guiltily: "I was playing with frogs in the game cabin."
Xue Huanchao: ? Good fight, don’t fight me next time.
He continued, "By the way, properly experimenting with mental power interactions will also be beneficial to your mental power growth. These two months are a critical period for mental power development. Major General Webster, please cooperate. Similarly, you should avoid overexerting yourself, both physically and mentally."
Xia Yi felt that Dr. Xue's tone in the last sentence was strange, but his expression looked serious and normal.
He must be overthinking it.
"Because the way you cocooned is quite special, you and Enoch entered the cocoon together. Cases of couples entering the cocoon together are rare. If it's convenient, I'd like to collect some data."
Xia Yi nodded. He had also heard about the severity of the situation and was very grateful to Xue Huanchao. "I will do my best to cooperate."
Doctor Xue then handed him a small device: "Just turn it on and place it next to you while you're interacting with each other's mental powers. This will only record the level of your mental power fluctuations. There will be no sound or video, so don't worry."
Shay:!
This is the kind of interaction he wants, right? It's a bit perverted to do this during interaction...
No, he and Major General Enoch can interact with each other through mental power!
But when he was forming a cocoon... the major general seemed to kiss him???
And confessed!
The male insect's face turned red instantly. The moment he lowered his head, Xue Huanchao winked at Major General Enoch.
#How about it, brother, I can only help you up to this point#
It was already afternoon when Major General Enoch returned home with the red and shy male insect.
"Do you want to try using your mental power?" Fortunately, Major General Enoch was a mature female insect, and he spoke in time to divert Shay's attention.
The instinct engraved in his genes tells him to lie in wait and then strike with one strike to win.
Xia Yi readily agreed.
"There's only one gaming pod though."
Enoch shook his head slightly: "No need for it, let's go to the training ground."
The training ground was located behind the villa, shaped like an inverted bowl. Because it was so large, Shay had always assumed it was a public gymnasium or something.
It turned out to be private?!
As soon as I entered the training ground, a cool breeze hit me.
The structure inside was very similar to that of a gymnasium. Shay looked around and found that the places that were originally the audience seats had become warehouses. The ceilings of the warehouses were very high, and he didn't know what was stored in them.
Xia Yi saw Enoch press the personal terminal, the gray protective cover above the training ground disappeared, and the warehouse door flashed blue light for three seconds and then retracted to the top.
The huge monsters squatting inside are actually mechas!
There are at least dozens of them.
The one in the middle is the Mirage XV-III currently used by the Major General. It is slender and all black, with only the weapons on board flashing silver-white light.
Xia Yi's starry eyes were too obvious. Enoch coughed lightly and gave up his original plan to use the second-generation spirit cat, which was most suitable for beginners. "The sensors on the mecha can very sensitively capture mental energy."
"But unlike the data simulated by the Star Network, the use of mental power can be clearly displayed through the mecha's movements."
"Do you want to try it?"
"I want to!" Xia Yi continued to look at him with starry eyes, "Major General, can I really try?"
"Can male insects pilot mechas? Is this a Phantom? The one you paraded at the medal ceremony! So impressive!"
It is really rare for a male insect to speak so many words in one breath. It seems that he really likes mechas.
Enoch's ears began to heat up, but there was no change in his serious expression.
"Yes, I asked Doctor Xue, and he said that male insects of level B and above can pilot mechas through mental power. However, the mechas piloted by male insects are different from ordinary mechas."
Seeing the antennae on the male insect's head begin to droop, Enoch immediately said, "But the Phantom is a light mecha. I'll adjust the parameters. You can try it."
One of the training items for female insect recruits is to quickly put on armor. The height of the mecha varies from 3 to 20 meters. Not all female insects have bone wings, so they need to practice their ability to climb with their bare hands, and the time to put on armor is calculated in milliseconds.
Major General Enoch had tortured these female insects a lot when he was leading his troops. They had to put on armor with weights on their backs, put on armor with one hand, and there were many types of them. There were many female insects that were made to cry and scream, and cursed him behind his back for being cruel.
But at this moment, the ruthless Major General Enoch was explaining the six foot pedals on the mecha's armor to his little male insect.
After demonstrating the armor-putting steps several times, he let Xia Yi try it while he carefully protected her from below.
"Enoch, I've never seen insects grow their armor like this in videos." Shay asked as he crawled.
He didn't even know that the mecha was equipped with footrests!
Of course, the footrests are designed for mechanics to repair mechas.
Major General Enoch's jaw clenched slightly, fearing that Xia Yi would lose concentration and fall off the mecha. He then said, "That's because they didn't put on the armor properly."
If a female soldier heard such slander, she would probably be furious.
"Oh!" Fortunately, Xia Yi did not delve into it.
Although the Phantom is a light mecha, its cockpit can accommodate two people because it is tall enough.
"This is the co-pilot seat, but it's usually only used to transport the wounded," Enoch explained.
Xia Yi nodded. Because the mecha is a single-soldier combat weapon linked to mental power, there are very few things that require two insects to cooperate in driving.
But the Phantom is different. Its requirements for physical skills are reduced because it uses mental power to compensate. Some female insects' mental power levels are not enough to drive the Phantom, so the design adopts a main and co-pilot design.
Of course, Major General Enoch's Phantom had only ever transported the wounded.
Under the guidance of the major general, Xia Yi connected the connector on the main driver's seat, and the major general also put on the connector on the co-pilot seat.
Prompts popped up on the light screen one after another.
[New mental power has been identified. Do you want to activate Level I permissions? ]
[Level I authority has been enabled, and a new driver has been added as Administrator No. 02.]
[Do you want to activate Phantom XV-III? ]
[01, 02 pilots' mental power is connecting]
[Link successful, Phantom XV-III activated]
"You can move now."
When the major general's voice came, Xia Yi tilted his head.
The entire field of vision immediately tilted to one side, and Shay nervously gripped the joystick.
"Look ahead and relax."
The major general spoke again.
Xia Yi then realized that the voice was not coming from the side, but from his mind?!
"Your mental power is connected to mine." Enoch saw Shay's confusion and explained, "Now, try to stand up."
Shay tried for a long time but failed. His body moved up and down following the "stand up" command from his brain, and then was fixed in position by the fixing device, but the mecha did not move at all.
Xia Yi felt a little anxious, as if he was back in the hospital bed, and all this was his hallucination before death.
"Just like you tilt your head, try to treat the mecha as your body." Enoch's voice had a soothing power.
"The weather is very good today, the sun is shining, do you want to go and see it?" Enoch continued.
Shay looked up subconsciously and found that the perspective had changed.
The phantom also raised his head!
The major general sitting in the passenger seat seemed to smile.
He continued, "That's it, Shay. You're very talented. Try to stand up and imagine yourself touching the ceiling."
A few minutes later, Shay actually stood up.
The huge mecha stood 12 meters tall. It looked up at the sky and slowly stretched out its right hand, as if it could really touch the top.
“He really stood up!”
Shay said excitedly, "Enoch! Look!"
He tilted his head to look at Enoch who was sitting next to him, and the mecha's head also tilted to the side. However, the change in perspective made Shay realize the sudden increase in height.
He saw the tops of the trees, the bricks and stones on top of the warehouse, and the mecha's hands and feet.
So high!
Xia Yi felt dizzy and the mecha he was controlling began to shake.
I'm going to fall!
The next moment he felt as if a force was supporting his back, and then he got rid of the dizziness and could finally see the situation inside the cabin.
"This is the switch of control." Major General Enoch was in much better condition than him. He turned his head and said to him while controlling the mecha.
"The mecha is a part of you, but not all of you." He said as he handed Shay a bottle of water, but the mecha remained standing.
Seeing Xia Yi's puzzled expression, Major General Enoch comforted her, "You'll need to think about this feeling for a while. As a bug experiencing mecha for the first time, you've done very well."
"Can your body still take it?" he asked.
Xia Yi nodded, and Major General Enoch raised his lips and said, "Reconnect the mecha."
After Shay did as he was told, Enoch's voice came from his mind again.
"Hold on tight."
The perspective instantly jumped from the ground to the air, running and turning at such a fast speed that Xia Yi felt that his retinas could not keep up with the changes in the scenery along the way.
This mecha truly lives up to its name, Phantom.
So cool!
He didn't know if it was his illusion, but Major General Enoch's next move became even more difficult.
Half an hour later, they returned to the ground.
Although Xia Yi did not need to operate it, connecting the mecha required a lot of mental energy. After the connection was made, Xia Yi was sweating all over.
But he was in high spirits.
"Enoch, that's awesome!"
Shay cheered as he tried to get out of the cockpit, but his legs felt so sore from having just been freed from the mecha's load that he almost fell.
Fortunately, Enoch was quick-witted and took Shay into his arms in time.
In the small cockpit, Shay sat on Enoch's lap.
"Enoch, you smell so good."
"Did you wear perfume? It smells so good."
Xia Yi seemed to be attracted and leaned over to sniff the neck of the gray-eyed female insect.
As the male insect approached, Enoch sensed a peculiar smell.
It was like a gentle rain falling on dry land.
He felt the rain in his spiritual sea.
But when the rain fell in the desert, he felt extremely thirsty and burning.
"Shay, pheromones."
A hoarse voice came out of his throat. Enoch covered his mouth and nose with one hand and reached for the hatch on the top.
The female insect reacted quickly enough, but still couldn't reach the hatch.
In the narrow space, the sudden surge of pheromones from the male insect was like the most potent poison. Just a little bit could make his legs go weak and the whole insect collapse.
The pheromone resistance training I did before was completely useless.
Enoch's gray pupils turned into vertical pupils, and gorgeous patterns appeared on his neck. Those were the patterns of female insects that Shay had never seen before.
A unique symbol that appears when passion strikes.
The lack of oxygen and passion forced the female insect to breathe heavily, but this aggravated his symptoms.
The small cockpit was filled with the pheromones unconsciously released by the male insects. Enoch knew rationally that he had to activate the purification device in the mecha, but he...
They don't want other insects to smell even a trace of their pheromones.
They're all his.
“…”
The air seemed to be burning, burning his respiratory tract and scorching his heart.
He tore open his collar, and the complex and mysterious patterns spread from his neck to his chest.
Xia Yi was shocked by the sudden change in front of him.
The female insect tried her best to endure the invasion of desire. The veins on his forehead bulged, his teeth were clenched, and his lowered brows made him look very ferocious, and even his handsome face looked a little hideous.
His gray eyes turned into vertical pupils and stared at Xia Yi, like a beast choosing its prey.
The blood seemed to be bursting through the blood vessels, and the eardrums were beating rapidly.
Eat him!
Enoch bit his tongue, kicked the hatch open, and said to Shay with his last bit of rationality, "Get out!"
Shay reached out and touched the armrest of the hatch. Enoch's insect armor on his arm was exposed due to excessive endurance, so he had to grab it with his left hand.
With a bang.
The space became closed again.
The pheromones diluted by the influx of air instantly became more concentrated.
Shay closed the hatch and approached Enoch.
He suddenly remembered what his professor had said in class.
"Previous studies have suggested that only male insects possess pheromones, which are the key to unlocking the female insect's spiritual sea."
"But modern research shows that female insects actually emit many signals to signal males. For example, female insects in their genital period, or when their spiritual sea is in urgent need of soothing, will emit a scent that only certain male insects can smell."
——"This is not a request for love, this is a request for help."
"go out!"
Enoch emphasized, his expression looking furious.
But at this moment, Xia Yi was not afraid.
Feng Man and Enoch were the only two female insects he had ever seen in a state of passion.
The former made him afraid and disgusted, and the latter made him feel...
He can stay.
Enoch's muscles were already tensing unconsciously.
When Shay reached out to cover him, he trembled as if hurt.
Gorgeous insect patterns appear on its marble-carved body, like a work of art.
"I promised Dr. Xue that I would collect data."
Xia Yi whispered, "But I don't know how to do it very well. You have to teach me."
If the desert encounters generous rain, it can also gather into a pool of water.
——
It took a long time for the gray-eyed female insect's eyes to regain focus.
"You..." His voice was hoarse, and he didn't know if he had no strength.
He saw the little male insect's hair soaked with sweat, and finally said nothing. He lifted up the clothes thrown aside and wiped Shay's fingers clean.
The atmosphere between the two of them became strange when they returned to the house.
Enoch said nothing and Shay was fidgeting. Fortunately, 02 turned around and bumped into Shay's calf, letting him take a shower. Shay took this opportunity to slip away.
Xia Yi walked into the bathroom with her head hung, wondering if he was too abrupt!
Although...but Enoch might not mean that!
Female insects are almost irresistible to the male insect's pheromones...
Major General Enoch was kind enough to take him in and help him break out of his cocoon, but he actually did this to Enoch.
The female insect pheromones the professor mentioned are not a thoroughly proven fact because the sample data is too small.
Ah, it was all his fault for being hot-headed at that time.
I just think Enoch's appearance...
His brows frowned and relaxed, and his tightly pursed lips opened in surprise at the unintentional touch.
His gray eyes seemed to be wet, and his originally fierce vertical pupils finally looked like polished cat's eyes.
The sound is like feathers.
Bah! How could he think of Major General Enoch like that?
Xia Yi turned the shower head to the maximum and shouted silently.
After washing, Xia Yi realized that he didn't take the pajamas.
His mind was buzzing just now and he had no idea what he was holding.
He hung the dirty clothes he took off outside. He originally wanted 02 to take them to wash, but he didn't hear any movement, so 02 should not have come yet.
I'll have to make do with my old pants for now.
When Shay opened the door, he saw the tall female insect standing outside.
He reflexively withdrew his hand.
Following his movements, Shay lowered his gaze and discovered that Major General Enoch was holding the clothes he had just taken off.
“…”
“…”
The scene was very quiet for a moment.
Xia Yi has lived on Earth for 18 years. Although he has never watched educational films from the Japanese country due to physical reasons, he also goes online.
Sometimes when your finger accidentally touches something, some strange pop-up windows will suddenly pop up on the interface.
#Brother-in-law smells my underwear late at night#
And so on.
Fortunately, Major General Enoch reacted quickly.
"I'll wash it."
Xia Yi swallowed it with difficulty. If he said it at this time, would it be embarrassing?
Or maybe Major General Enoch simply wanted to help him wash his clothes!
"Trouble." He felt his tongue burning when he said it.
"It's my pleasure." Major General Enoch's voice was steady as if he was accepting the royal family's thanks.
End of conversation.
No one moved. The two insects stood face to face, staring at each other.
Xia Yi's mind was racing, trying to think of something else to lighten the mood. He lowered his head unconsciously and saw his bare legs.
Originally, there was nothing wrong with a man showing his bare legs in front of another man.
But the current situation is that two people of the opposite sex have just engaged in ambiguous behavior and are in the process of being caught.
One of the bugs was holding the other bug's clothes, pants and underwear in its hands!
“…”
Xia Yi was so embarrassed that she almost died.
At this time, the role of insect artificial intelligence becomes prominent.
"Master insect, master insect, you haven't taken all the clothes! 02 has brought them! Thoughtful 02~ Cute 02~" 02 hummed a messy song and rolled over.
Xia Yi took the pants handed to him by 02 and closed the door again.
The only ones left outside the door were 02 spinning in circles and a tall female insect.
"Master insect, 02 can help you wash clothes~" 02 said happily to Xia Yi, while stretching out his short hands towards the tall female insect.
The gray-eyed female insect ignored it.
He walked away, still holding tightly in his hands the clothes that the male insect had taken off.
