Chapter 18 The person I hate...
After another week, everything was finally ready, and Lin Zhi came to the desolate planet again.
After the debugging and rehearsal were completed, the warship carrying the team officially set off from the desolate planet, and disappeared into the universe in the sight of the scientific researchers and the remaining allied forces.
The West District was originally a restricted area. The Alliance lost many satellites, probes and researchers in the West District before they collected the data that can support Lin Zhi and his team to explore.
Lu Yuan was one of the people who contributed data back then.
In other words, Lu Yuan's depth of knowledge back then almost shocked the entire alliance. Everyone knew that he was gifted and would be the future master of the alliance army, and would be a legendary marshal even more powerful than his teacher, but they didn't expect him to have such courage.
Lu Yuan, who once led everyone into the restricted area without knowing his own limitations, was now lying on the sofa with his legs crossed, looking very relaxed.
The sofa is in the lounge next to the main control room. Life is peaceful in the lounge. Outside the lounge, in sharp contrast to Lu Yuan, is Lin Zhi, who has stayed in the main control room since he boarded the battleship and has never taken his eyes off the display screen.
Lin Zhi felt somewhat dissatisfied.
Lu Yuan was the consultant for this operation, so why was he so lazy and unfocused? He had mobilized so many people. Was he just hiring a consultant to come and eat for free, regardless of past grudges?
Lin Zhi tightly grasped his cane. He was annoyed that Lu Yuan's non-cooperation would affect the operation.
He not only hopes that the operation will go smoothly, but also expects it to be fruitful.
——We can’t delay any longer.
Lin Zhi sneered. After he returned to the Imperial City, the Duke had truly become more and more presumptuous. Or perhaps it was simply that the Duke had become more greedy year after year, a case of the greedy snake swallowing an elephant.
More and more innocent ordinary people were implicated and killed because of him, and Adolf and his personal soldiers had limited abilities.
What makes him even more annoyed is that many people cannot be traced after escaping, which is undoubtedly a time bomb.
If these people revealed the Duke's plan, it would lead to greater turmoil and casualties.
The most crucial thing is that many of them have seen Adolf, but failed to rescue him. If they betray his personal soldiers, wouldn't that make the Duke suspicious?
The West District needs to make achievements quickly.
Everything has to be accelerated.
Lin Zhi suppressed his physical discomfort and the chaotic thoughts in his mind, and clicked on a red dot on the screen. When it was enlarged, an ice-blue planet appeared, its surface covered with cracks, floating ice crystals, and mist.
Lan Heng asked: "This is the planet closest to us. We've detected NE ore in the center of the planet. Should we land here and mine it?"
Lin Zhi looked at the system assessment of this planet and frowned slightly.
The planets in the western area are not habitable, so they have to stay in the mecha after landing. Even if they want to go out, they have to wear protective clothing and carry oxygen tanks. The center of this planet with NE ore has blizzards all year round, accompanied by hail.
If the mecha is destroyed by hail or blocked by a blizzard, it will be fatal.
Seeing Lin Zhi's hesitation, Lan Heng added, "It's okay if we don't choose to land here. The warship will continue to go deeper."
Lin Zhi's gaze returned to the screen.
After the battleship entered the west area, the screen was immediately filled with dense red alerts. The battleship passed by the surrounding meteorite fragments, satellite debris and star clouds countless times.
They are still very lucky at the moment, at least the warships have not encountered any situations that cannot be avoided.
But if you go deeper, that may not be the case.
Lin Zhi shook his head slightly. "Let's land. At least the outer edge of this planet is safe. We should be cautious when entering the center to mine, and the operation should not take too long."
Even if there was a crisis on the planet, which planet in the West District was absolutely safe? The planet Lu Yuan had visited before was still experiencing acid rain.
"good!"
After making the decision, Lin Zhi handed the main control room to Lan Heng and went to the rest room nearby.
Looking at Lu Yuan lying flat on the sofa, resting his head on his arm and closing his eyes, Lin Zhi said coldly: "Advisor Lu, do you think this is your own home?"
Lu Yuan slowly opened his eyes, raised his gaze, and his golden eyes fell on Lin Zhi.
There was no need for him now. So, was Lin Zhi unhappy that he didn't follow behind him and wag his tail like his other loyal dogs?
Lu Yuan smiled and said, "Your Majesty, do you need me to serve tea or water?"
He stood up and wanted to approach Lin Zhi. Lin Zhi frowned, raised his hand and put his cane against Lu Yuan's chest to stop him, pressed him on the sofa, and looked down at him.
The look in his eyes as he looked down at Lu Yuan was somewhat warning.
"Lu Yuan, don't forget your identity and responsibilities as a consultant."
Before he finished speaking, a few strands of golden hair fell on the side of his cheeks because he lowered his head, and the hair was only a few centimeters away from Lu Yuan.
Enigma's sense of smell is more sensitive than that of ordinary people, and Lu Yuan smelled the fragrance on Lin Zhi's hair.
Lu Yuan wrinkled his nose and felt nauseous.
Lin Zhi never reveals his pheromones. He can't smell the scent of cheap red wine, but is filled with the sweet scent of high-end perfume and shampoo.
In the past, Lu Yuan had never had much idea about pheromones, nor did he pay attention to the smell of other people. But now he suddenly realized that there is a difference between sweet and unsweet.
Lu Yuan wrinkled his nose.
Expensive luxury perfume smells just like this.
Lin Zhi said calmly: "Don't forget that there are 35 lives on our battleship. This is not a place for you to play house in the lower city."
"Oh……"
Lin Zhi actually has the nerve to say that?
The more Lu Yuan got to know Luo Xing, the more annoyed he became with Lin Zhi, but he didn't expect that Lin Zhi could continue to exceed his imagination.
The Duke's son has been doing very well in the East District recently. Because of the profits brought by energy and Lin Zhi's protection, the Duke has developed many new businesses and killed countless people.
Many of them fled to the lower city and were taken in by the shadow.
Those who were taken in had either lost their children or their loved ones, and their bodies were covered with marks of torture.
When the black shadow asked them what they had experienced, they were so scared that they dared not speak.
The style of the powerful and wealthy has never disappointed him, and Lin Zhi has challenged his nerves time and time again.
Why is Lin Zhi so anxious now? Is it because I didn't rush over to make profits for him and get the oil and water for him in the West District?
Looking at the temporary "ally" in front of him, a complex emotion flashed in Lu Yuan's eyes, but it was quickly suppressed, replaced by the usual contempt and hostility he showed when looking at Lin Zhi.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty."
Lu Yuan raised an eyebrow. He ignored the cane and leaned forward, carrying the oppressive feeling of Enigma. This action forced Lin Zhi to subconsciously retract a third of his strength, and the cold metal left a mark on Lu Yuan's open chest.
He grasped the cane of power against his chest with two fingers, exerting such force that his knuckles turned red, yet his tone was frivolous. "I will do my best to ensure that these thirty-five men do not die in Your Majesty's pursuit of military glory, wealth, and fame."
Lin Zhi's eyes suddenly turned cold.
He wanted to take back his cane, but at this moment Lu Yuan was holding the end of the cane tightly and silently.
He just lay there comfortably, staring at himself with hawk-like eyes, as if trying to see through them, and even his cane was held by him.
Lin Zhi paused.
The Lu Yuan when facing "Lin Zhi" was completely different from the Lu Yuan when facing "Luo Xing". The Lu Yuan in front of him seemed to have revealed his claws and murderous intent without any scruples.
The two fell into a silent standoff.
But what made Lin Zhi depressed was that even in this situation, his body still felt soothed by Lu Yuan's pheromones.
At this moment, he seemed to be divided into two Lin Zhi. One Lin Zhi was angry and dissatisfied with Lu Yuan's actions and wanted to pick him up and beat him up; the other Lin Zhi was quietly absorbing the pheromones of the person he hated.
But no matter what his physical condition was, even though Lin Zhi's body was not in good condition this week, he always appeared to be His Majesty without any flaws in front of outsiders.
His Majesty, standing straight, bent his legs slightly and pulled back the cane with force.
He wanted to say something...
"His Majesty……!"
"Advisor Lu!!"
Just then, Lan Heng and several allied forces rushed in.
That look made Lin Zhi's heart skip a beat, "What happened?"
"No, nothing!" Lan Heng laughed dryly. "I just came to inform His Majesty and Advisor Lu that the jump is about to begin!"
“…”
Lin Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, wondering how he could have forgotten that Lan Heng was such a noisy kid.
Lan Heng also breathed a sigh of relief.
God knows that when he saw Lin Zhi walking into the lounge with a Shura-like face, he was scared to death even though he didn't know what happened inside.
Someone else asked him, "Adjutant Lan, His Majesty and Advisor Lu are one Alliance ceiling and one Enigma. Will the battleship be blown up if they fight?"
Lan Heng was also terrified when he heard it.
So, he grabbed a few unlucky allied soldiers and came in with courage.
"The transition is about to begin." Lu Yuan turned to look at Lin Zhi and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, shouldn't you go and check it out?"
Lin Zhi looked at Lu Yuan coldly.
Seeing that the atmosphere was about to become tense, Lan Heng winked at the several allied soldiers standing behind him.
The next moment, they ran to Lu Yuan, surrounded him, and said with a smile, "Ah, Advisor Lu, how can we not go? After all, our Majesty trusts and relies on you very much, so he wants you to come and help!"
"That's right, His Majesty isn't asking for your opinion?"
Lan Heng and several others also surrounded Lin Zhi and said with a smile: "Advisor Lu trusts His Majesty so much! With His Majesty around, he can even rest assured and recuperate!"
"Yes, yes, although Advisor Lu has just arrived, he is very obedient to His Majesty's arrangements and commands!"
Lin Zhi: “…”
Lu Yuan: “…”
Lin Zhi frowned slightly as he looked at these people.
What are they doing?
Lan Heng tried to lighten the mood. "If Advisor Lu really wants to recuperate, he can go to his room and take a nap before coming out to help His Majesty check on the situation! Well, we can all take turns, haha... Anyway, His Majesty and Advisor Lu's rooms are right next to each other, very close!"
Lin Zhi has a special status, so his room is naturally the largest in the warship and the only one in the corridor of the west wing.
Lu Yuan's identity is also special, but this warship is small, and the other rooms are all large bunk beds.
Lan Heng had a flash of inspiration. There was a subspace next to Lin Zhi's suite, separated by a thin wall and door, so he stuffed Lu Yuan in there. This way, it would be convenient for the two to communicate at any time and repair their relationship.
Lin Zhi raised an eyebrow, "Rooms...close together?"
Lu Yuan nodded, "That's very thoughtful."
Lan Heng was horrified to find that the atmosphere became even more tense after he said this.
