"I'm no longer single!"
Luo Yuan sat on the back of the sofa, with one foot on the ground, showing his pendant to the group of soldiers.
The pure and translucent emerald is set on a silver-white base, like a pool of emerald green water falling on a snow-capped mountain.
It is a token of love passed down in Dr. Li’s family.
The soldiers exclaimed, "Oh!" and a few of them clapped quietly.
"You've said it for the tenth time." Pei Ji held his forehead and sighed.
"But I'm no longer single!" Luo Yuan blinked his puppy eyes.
"The eleventh time."
Pei Ji's susceptible period has completely ended, and the injuries on his body have almost healed due to his abnormal self-repair ability.
Now he is a handsome and powerful admiral.
Now the admiral was sitting in a gorgeous armchair with his legs crossed, and just one look from him could make anyone kneel down before him.
What crybaby? I don’t even know him.
The senior officers of the Fourth Fleet gathered around Luo Yuan to admire his emerald, and exclamations of "Wow" came from the sofa.
You Yan was the only one who still remembered why they were here: "So, who should we send to participate in Messiah's Mecha League?"
"Since the general is going, Major Luo must follow, right?" said a soldier.
Luo Yuan put away the pendant and patted it lovingly.
"I'm not going."
"Eh——" Everyone showed a surprised expression.
You Yan: "So love disappears so quickly?"
Another soldier: "It's like this when Alpha has a family~"
Luo Yuan: "What are you talking about? I am loyal to the general and heaven and earth can bear witness to it."
As he spoke, he made a heart shape with one hand.
Pei Ji tutted in disdain: "He has other tasks."
You Yan looked at Luo Yuan in confusion.
Luo Yuan raised his index finger to his lips and made a "hush" gesture.
"Top secret."
You Yan hesitated and said, "Then I..."
"You don't have to go either." Pei Ji held his chin with his fingers crossed. "You need to return to the fleet and wait for orders. Make sure the Fourth Fleet is always ready for battle."
"Combat readiness?" You Yan was stunned.
"That's right." Pei Ji said, "From the moment we arrived at Messiah, we were always ready for battle."
He spoke slowly.
You Yan restrained his expression and said, "I understand."
Pei Ji glanced at the remaining generals.
"Bai Mu, Nian Cheng, Lu Pan."
He selected the two youngest soldiers and a commander.
"Bring your squad and follow me to Messiah."
The three young generals were startled.
"Admiral, are we... really okay?" Lu Pan, who had just joined the fleet two years ago and was promoted to a third-level commander last month, looked terrified.
He hadn't even commanded a team of more than thirty people.
Although judging from the distribution just now, there are still many hidden stories behind this game.
But after all, this is a game led by Pei Ji himself. If the performance is too bad and brings shame to him, will he really not be thrown to feed the worms?
Pei Ji: "With me leading the team, what are you afraid of?"
The others looked at each other.
It's scary because you lead the team, okay?
Whose nickname is the battlefield devil?
Luo Yuan comforted him, "It's okay. Commander Shen will guide you. He wouldn't have the heart to let the Admiral be the last one, right?"
"Really?!" The three young generals immediately showed excited expressions.
The First Commander's guidance! That's awesome!
Others cast envious glances.
Pei Ji frowned, "Am I really that far behind that little guy?"
Bai Mu's mind was short and his mouth was quick: "That's not far, that's very... Ouch!"
Nian Cheng, who was calmer, hit him hard.
"Speaking of which, why didn't I see Commander Shen today?" You Yan interrupted quickly.
They arrived at Chenxing Palace early in the morning to discuss the league arrangements with Pei Ji, but they didn't even meet Chen Que.
"He went to the desert prison on some business."
Pei Ji glanced at Luo Yuan.
"Her Royal Highness arranged for him to escort two prisoners with us to Messiah."
The corners of Luo Yuan's mouth lowered an inch.
Pei Ji: "But it seems like he should be back soon, why are you so slow..."
…
The first oasis.
Shen Que pushed open the wooden door of "Dion Artisan Workshop".
A strange apprentice poked his head out from behind his work table.
"Hello, we are closed today."
He was obviously much shyer than the previous apprentice. He looked at Shen Que's expensive cloak embroidered with golden patterns and asked hesitantly, "Excuse me, who are you..."
A pair of wrinkled hands patted his shoulders.
"Long time no see, Madam Young Lord." Dion said slowly.
The apprentice opened his eyes wide in surprise.
The person in front of him took off the hood of his cloak, revealing a clear and handsome face.
"Long time no see, Mr. Dion." Shen Que nodded to the old craftsman.
"Want some custom jewelry?" Dion asked.
Shen Que nodded, took out a palm-sized exquisite box from his cloak, opened it, and revealed the glittering mineral.
Dion recognized it immediately as the piece he had cut.
"You found it?" he asked in surprise.
"It's been a while since I found it." Shen Que placed the ore on the table. "For some reasons, it just came back to me recently."
He had thought that the stone would no longer belong to him.
It will become someone else's plaything, or new research material.
But unexpectedly, after many twists and turns, fate still returned his wedding gift.
Shen Que's gaze lingered on the crystal ore.
