Chapter 587
Bernie, who was diving deep into the Star Beast Forest, had no idea of the changes in the outside world at the moment. He was determined to find the whereabouts of Jiang Jihuai and the others, but often when he found a clue and rushed over, the other party had already left.
“We can’t go any further. We are already in Area B. If we go any deeper, we will run into the star beasts that escaped from Area A. Because of the appearance of that star-level star beast some time ago, the star beasts here have been running around everywhere. We might even run into star beasts from Area S.” The captain of the mercenary team was determined not to go forward. He couldn’t bear to watch his team members go and die. This Beta had no combat power at all and completely relied on their protection, yet he still complained that they were not protecting him well enough.
Ugh! If you think they are not good enough to protect you, why don't you spend more star coins to hire a better mercenary team? We encountered a group of star beasts before, and half of them were injured.
"You guys..." Bernie trembled all over when he thought of the scene just now. If he had to retreat before finding the person, wouldn't it mean that all the suffering he had suffered before was in vain? He had no bath and ate rough food. His well-maintained skin became rough and was scratched in several places. He could feel that his body was sour and smelly.
But he was unwilling to give up. Damn it, how could he run so fast? Why couldn't he wait for him? He had made such a great sacrifice, but the other party didn't see anything at all. Bernie wanted to cry.
Thinking of this, his eyes really turned red. There were several Betas in the mercenary team. Seeing his expression, they curled their lips. They really looked down on these Betas who were spoiled since childhood and lived like Omegas, yet looked down on them. How could he be so shameless?
People are different, even Betas are different.
The roar of the star beast came from afar. Bernie, who was about to grit his teeth and continue to go in, suddenly his legs trembled and he said hurriedly: "Quick, let's go back, I don't want to go in again, let's go."
In the end, he started to cry, and the team members had no intention of laughing at him. They decided to leave as soon as possible while there was still time.
Yuan Jing and his companions did not intend to take advantage of this group of people, but they simply did not take them seriously. At this moment, they were indeed in Area A, and they had hunted an S-level star beast and picked a bunch of high-quality star grass. Then they decided to go back home. Calculating the time it would take on the road, they had been out for almost a month, and it was time to go back and rest.
Finally leaving the Star Beast Forest, Bernie did not bother to check other messages. The first thing he did was to wash himself from head to toe. The second thing he did was to have a hearty meal. Only then did he have the leisure to check his personal terminal.
When he saw the news that the second prince was missing on the disaster-stricken planet, Bernie was shocked on the spot. The cup in his hand slipped and fell without him noticing. The cup did not break, but the juice in the cup spilled all over the floor.
Bernie suddenly panicked. How could the second prince disappear? If the second prince really disappeared and could never come back, then why did he come to such a hell of a place? It was simply unnecessary.
Without the second prince standing in the way, the throne would definitely belong to the third prince, and the Rafael family would then become the biggest winner. With his Rafael family background, even if he was a Beta, he would be able to get an excellent marriage. With the Rafael family and the third prince as his backers, it would be impossible for him to end up in the situation in his dream.
So, why did he suffer so much and run into the dangerous Star Beast Forest? Thinking that all the suffering he had suffered might have been in vain, Bernie immediately hated Jiang Jihuai and Yuan Jing next door.
No, he couldn't stay here any longer, he had to go back to the Imperial Star and to the Rafael family. He had to win his parents' favor and seek a better future for himself. Yes, that's right, he shouldn't pin his hopes on a cold-blooded and heartless person.
Bernie asked the robot to quickly pack his bag and walked out. He had already bought the starship ticket back to the Imperial Star, the fastest one.
What a coincidence, when he pushed open the gate and stepped out, Yuan Jing and his three companions came back chatting and laughing. They did not look too disheveled, and were in much better condition than when Bernie came back. One could feel a sense of youthful energy from them at a glance.
Unfortunately, Bernie was not affected by this aura at all. Instead, he was filled with hatred. Thinking that the whereabouts of the second prince was unknown and the third prince would still inherit the throne and become the future emperor, Bernie took a bold step forward and shouted, "Jiang Jihuai, I have something to tell you, come here!"
McCann and Andy looked at the neighbor with surprised eyes. He must have taken the wrong medicine, and he actually spoke to Jiang Jihuai in such an commanding tone. To be honest, McCann shuddered when he heard it. My God, how dare he order and appoint Jiang Jihuai, the great devil?
Is he tired of living? Thinking about the scene where Jiang Jihuai and Yuan Jing smashed the S-level star beast with their bare hands, McKen quickly pulled Andy back a step, away from this Beta who took the wrong medicine.
Andy glared at McKeon and knew what was going on in this guy's mind.
Yuan Jing and Jiang Jihuai were also a little surprised. What happened that changed Bernie's attitude and made him become like the two people before entering Xingshou Lin? Before, he tried desperately to cling to Jiang Jihuai, but now he became arrogant and seemed to have more confidence. Where did this confidence come from?
Jiang Jihuai glanced at him with a half-smile: "Just stand here and talk. If you have anything to say, say it quickly. If you don't want to say it, get out of here quickly."
"Pfft!" McKen laughed out loud and quickly covered his mouth, as if he was trying to cover up the truth.
Bernie was furious. These untouchables should all die. The empire should belong to the royal family and the aristocratic families. These untouchables should always be at the bottom and should never have a chance to turn over.
Originally, he thought that if Jiang Jihuai was willing to listen to him, he could take him back with him and give him a good chance, but he didn't expect him to be so stubborn.
All that was left was humiliation, in order to avenge the suffering he had endured for so long: "Okay, then I'll say it here, I tell you, the Second Prince is missing, his whereabouts are unknown, ha, the throne of this empire will belong to the Third Prince, and my Rafael family will always be out of reach for you commoners, Jiang Jihuai, one day you will regret it!"
After uttering a bunch of harsh words, he thought he would see an expression of surprise and regret on the other party's face, but unfortunately, the other party just raised his eyebrows and still had that half-smile on his face. Bernie gritted his teeth and walked away with his head held high.
After the people left, McKenn released his hand that was covering his mouth and said something shocking: "What a psychopath, a psychopath who escaped from the Lafair family."
Bernie, who had not walked far, happened to hear McCann's loud voice and almost stumbled and fell.
Yuan Jing laughed and said, "Indeed, there is something wrong with his brain. Pack up and come over to eat with us later. It's a good opportunity to gossip about the royal family."
Bernie's words revealed a lot of information. Yuan Jing didn't expect that after entering the Star Beast Forest, the outside world would change so much. He felt that this time he and his lover didn't have to do anything at all, they could just eat melons the whole time to complete the process.
McCann only heard the word "eat", and with a cheer, he pulled Andy back to wash up, clean himself up, and then went next door to have a big meal.
After returning home, Yuan Jing and his friend did not rush to check the news on Starnet. Instead, they cleaned themselves from head to toe. When they came out, the housework robot had already prepared all the ingredients and was waiting for Jiang Jihuai to cook.
Jiang Jihuai had to admit that life in this interstellar world was more convenient than any other world before, and it didn't take too long to cook a table of dishes.
As a result, when McCann and Andy came over, they were of little help and just added to the chaos in the kitchen. The robot was much more useful than them.
When they sat down to eat, Yuan Jing logged into the Star Network and set it to holographic projection mode. The four of them ate while watching the major and minor events that had happened during this period.
Needless to say, the first thing was the news of the disappearance of the second prince, as well as the reactions of the royal family and the eldest prince, and the protests of the people.
Several people were watching this drama with great interest. Yuan Jing said while gnawing on a bone, "Did you figure out what happened? How did the second prince disappear? Now the various forces on the Star Network are jumping up and down. It's really lively."
Andy frowned and said, "Could it be a conspiracy of the forces behind the Third Prince? If something happens to the Second Prince, the first in line to the throne will be the Third Prince. Among the legitimate children of the royal family, the Second Prince is the only Alpha."
Therefore, in order to ensure the continuation of the royal family, illegitimate children can be brought to the table, otherwise an outstanding heir must be selected from the royal family's side branch.
"It could be the work of the rebels, or the interstellar alliance, or it could be a joint effort of these three forces to deal a heavy blow to the royal family." Andy analyzed that although the royal family did not have much real power, it was still a symbol of the empire, and whoever became the emperor would still have a significant impact on the empire.
Jiang Jihuai looked at Yuan Jing lovingly: "Yuan Jing, you say."
Macken felt blind, Yuan Jing laughed: "It is also possible that the Second Prince and the mastermind behind this drama are waiting to turn the tables and give the enemy a heavy blow. From the video, we can see that the First Prince's temperament has changed a lot before and after the Second Prince's accident. There is a desperate momentum behind this."
Andy responded: "You mean the Second Prince knew there would be danger, but he still deliberately cooperated with the other party in order to overturn the other party's plan? The one standing in the front is the First Prince? Why did the First Prince do this? Does the First Prince want to change his status and come to the front?"
Andy's voice was getting louder and louder. If the eldest prince was really determined to step to the front, it would undoubtedly be extremely beneficial to them, the Betas. Some Alphas were stupid, arrogant and conceited, and such people were destined to be at a high position from birth. No matter how hard an ordinary Beta tried and how much he achieved, the position he could climb to was very limited.
Just like the eldest prince, he is such an outstanding person, but because he was born a Beta, he will never be able to become emperor. In the end, he may be married off by the royal family for political purposes. This makes Andy feel very sad.
Jiang Jihuai smiled and said, "Perhaps the Second Prince is too dissatisfied with the marriage contract, so he is using this method to resist."
McKeon slammed the table and laughed.
Yuan Jing continued to look through the interesting news, and ended up coming across a story about the love-hate relationship between the third prince and a Beta. Oh no, there was more than just the third prince, there were also several outstanding Alphas surrounding an ordinary Beta. The protagonist of this story was Mi Manning. When Macken and Andy saw the scene where Mi Manning ran to the Imperial Military Academy to fight against Ke Yunnuo and the Alpha around him, they were outraged.
"My goodness, this female Omega is really cruel. She and the Second Prince have already done this. This woman is really scary."
Yuan Jing has also witnessed the fighting ability of this woman. Judging from the reaction of the second prince, his values are still relatively normal. If not, I am afraid that Mi Man Ning will get what she wants, and everything will go according to her calculations. She will immediately turn from a vicious female supporting role into the biggest winner and become the heroine of this world.
It was just a matter of one move. The second prince disappeared, making the future situation unclear. How can Mimaning get out of this predicament?
It was a very pleasant meal. The dishes were delicious and the gossip accompanying the meal was fascinating. In the end, Macon and Andy went home with full bellies, having eaten so much that they didn't even realize it.
Yuan Jing and Jiang Jihuai, who stayed at home and let the robot eat, did not do nothing. Bernie's reaction today was very strange.
"I suspect Bernie just has an extra memory, and that memory may not be correct. Judging from his reaction, when he first came to Star Weis to approach us, he obviously didn't expect the Second Prince to disappear. The memory he received should be that the Third Prince fell from power and the Second Prince ascended to the throne, and the Rafael family also had a bad ending, so he couldn't wait to find a new backer for himself. At that time, he was targeting us, no, to be more precise, you."
Yuan Jing analyzed while operating his optical computer, "So when he finds that the memories he has acquired no longer match reality, what will he choose?"
From just a few contacts, it can be seen that Bernie is arrogant and timid, selfish and stupid. It can be seen from the fact that he left his family and came to the planet Kus alone. He has no intention of telling his family about the future situation. He just wants to avoid disaster by himself. Now that he sees that his family will not lose power, he wants to rush back to the Emperor Star Family as soon as possible. It can be seen that this person has always only considered himself.
This kind of people are often the most vicious. They have no idea of the overall situation and only seek to live a comfortable life.
So Yuan Jing was curious about how this kind of person would deal with him and Jiang Jihuai next. It was obvious that when he left, he hated the two people who had never given him a chance. This kind of person only remembers grudges and will definitely attack them to avenge today when he finds an opportunity.
Jiang Jihuai watched Yuan Jing track Bernie's personal terminal through the Star Network while stroking his chin and saying, "Want to expose our identities? But it's useless. For example, the video that was released by someone before, those people on the Star Network shouted that it was fake and hype, so even if he exposed it, not many people would believe it."
"I hope he won't go that far, but we can't expect too much from a man like that."
