Chapter 17 Fight
Both of them bear the surname of the Zuo family, but one is an elite Beta who is so outstanding that he transcends gender differences, while the other is an inferior gene alpha who has willingly fallen into the mud.
However, Leila Assay herself did not think so. After all, she still had more than 20 planets in the countryside of the Siren Galaxy. She was a wealthy property owner, with a group of followers. She was quite powerful and at ease in her own territory. Although the various protection fees and land income, asset debts, and the group of idiots who were howling and violent... were a bit hard to describe.
After returning to the boat, Leila Assay finished her shower, wearing a large vest, with wet hair, and kicking her split-toe slippers, she walked towards the cargo hold, leaving water marks all the way.
From a distance, the benefit of 8% of leopard genes is not only physical enhancement, but also a 234% increase in various sensory indexes, which made him hear some sounds in his ears one after another.
From the bottom of the cargo hold. The place where the escape capsule that drifted from the center of the war was parked. The mission target is worth N coins. Tsk! Just thinking about the remaining coins in the account rising from two digits to N digits, and having to add half of the zeros after completing this simple transaction, Leila Asay couldn't help but whistle loudly with joy from the bottom of her heart.
She happily put her hands on the railing, lazily lowered her beautiful golden eyes, and listened attentively to the gossip and discussion of those scum and idiots.
“So… so beautiful!”
"So cute, she must be an omega..."
"I really want to know what her pheromones smell like..."
"Look at those eyelashes, they are so... so long..."
"That's not necessarily true... Look at what the leader looks like... Before he debuted in Black Star... he was like that..." a half-bald alpha whispered.
"But it turned out to be an alpha..." A skinny tall man said with longing in his eyes and smacked his lips with a regretful tone.
"Later, he became even more brutal and cruel than the leader of Deathwing, and was able to fight the crazy people of Red Gull to a draw even with a one-on-ten fight..."
"So... before the Great Leader... it was... like that?"
“…You don’t know…”
"I've only been in Arale for less than two years! I was picked up by the boss when the planet rioted!"
“Tsk!”
"cut!"
"Oh oh oh ~ The big boss is here, is he going to kiss the sleeping beauty to wake her up?" This was the sharp-eyed hedgehog-headed pirate's teasing giggle. His exaggerated and loud tone interrupted the off-topic discussion. In an instant, everyone made faces and kept silent in tacit agreement.
Leila Asai looked up from her high vantage point and saw a dozen alphas with bestiality genes crowded together in a circle, looking their heads out and now they were curled up in a circle and looking up at him with silly flattering smiles.
The benefits of the S-class potential's beast gene made him outstanding in both dynamic vision and static vision. Leila Asai glanced over and saw the narrow window on the escape capsule through the gap left by the pirates looking up. At a glance, a girl with honey brown curly hair was sleeping with her eyes closed. Her slightly rising and falling chest showed that she was still alive. The temperature difference between the inside and outside of the escape capsule made the exhaled white air diffuse into a thin mist, adding a hazy mystery to the young face of the girl in the sealed capsule.
The intelligent biochemical U-matter outer shield of the escape capsule's outer shell has shrunk into dark strands, with only a few extremely thin branches extending into the inner compartment dimly lit, indicating the flow of data and the normal operation of the capsule's interior.
Intelligent computer biochemical U-mass outer shield? Leila narrowed her eyes. This is usually an accessory that can be expanded and equipped by AI intelligent computers above the quasi-life form level. In the entire history of AI evolution in the human empire, there are only less than ten known ones.
And each of them controls the computing power of a planet.
How did it get attached to a tiny escape capsule?
If the omega in the escape capsule is so important that it deserves to be escorted by a quasi-AI life form, then why would that adult issue such an escort mission to a pirate leader?
It's irrational, there are too many things I can't understand.
As the first heir to the Imperial Crown, the commander-in-chief of the Western Front, and the commander of the empire's strongest military force, what else is there to be avoided?
Leila Assay's mind was in a state of confusion. Looking at the escape capsule that had been drifting in the flames of the interstellar war and had become mottled and charred, she suddenly felt an indescribable feeling in her heart.
For example, Sai Leila Asai himself, when he was young, he fought his way out of the siege of the barren land and became an honorable existence that could be named "Sai". Although his naturally degraded beast genes were despised by mainstream ideas, they also made him a rising star among his competitors of the same period. Even when he was expelled from the clan's home, the family did not deprive him of his surname, but just let him wander in the stars.
This feeling... even though I don't care that much... I feel like I've been thrown away.
"Go away, this is my 'slayer' (pirate slang for 'mission target'), it's none of your business..."
Leila Asai shouted towards the cargo hold, then casually put on her robotic arm, kicked off, and jumped down from the 20-meter platform.
With a bang, it landed steadily and lightly on the bottom of the cargo hold.
Here, apart from the group of alpha pirates who were sitting in a circle gossiping about nothing, only the C-class animal gene information soldier Asa was busy calibrating the converter, while his exclusive Arale ship's chief strategist Foxtail Sasaki was standing by with his hands in his sleeves, carefully watching the changes in the escape capsule's docking test data.
The main ship Arale is a modified version of the Empire's third-generation super-large cabin ore transport ship. Such a small escape capsule belongs to the Empire's fifth-generation technology product. The energy docking system has been modified on-site by the information soldier Asa, and the converter is running smoothly. Foxtail Sasaki is a little worried about the energy pressure overload, and is asking Asa to adjust it to the minimum output frequency.
"Captain...chief, the password given in your mission list is invalid. It won't work even if you try to crack it again~" Information soldier Asa wiped his sweat off his forehead. When he talked about his profession, his stuttering symptoms were much weaker.
"What's going on?" Leila Asai focused her attention on her humanoid star coin.
Asa stuttered out a bunch of technical terms and described the situation, roughly saying that the code to open the life-saving capsule must have been tampered with from the inside after it was ejected.
Leila Asai narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at the situation in the cabin. The sleeping omega's eyelids trembled slightly, indicating that she was in a U-quality mental link. She was mentally prepared for this situation, but she was also full of surprise.
Although His Highness mentioned in the commissioning documents that this omega was a 'beginner' who had awakened primary mental power, he was only an omega whose mental power had just sprouted for less than an imperial star month, but the U-quality mental link was not a strength that a 'beginner' could withstand.
Yes, if you look closely, you can see a faint trace of blood on your jaw. This is the price of forcibly raising your spiritual level.
Why? What a strange omega.
But please don’t die! My human-shaped star coin! Leila cried out in her heart! Please don’t die!
Never mind. If the password cannot be opened, just tear open the outer cabin armor. If there is any problem, drag them back to the medical cabin first, Leila Asai thought.
This ship is full of brave and aggressive alphas, so they can't open the lifeboat in public, or else they will explode! The collision of the A-signs might cause some drama, and although he's not afraid of internal fighting, he doesn't want to use this excuse to punish those idiots with low IQ and self-control.
Compared to the big guys of other pirates, the leopard-eared alpha's boyish body seemed thin, with only a thin layer of muscle covering it, but his body was graceful and his beautiful forearm muscles bulged. He was seen wearing a mechanical arm guard and was about to tear the metal armor of the escape capsule's outer cabin with his bare hands.
However, the originally dark U-quality reacted to the stress and carried an attack protection current. A burst of blue light flashed, and Leila Asai blocked it with his bare hands without any concern. For his physical strength, this attack was nothing.
However, among the group of inferior gene alphas who had just surrounded them and were reluctant to leave, all the beastly gene users below C-level fell down with a burst of wailing.
Information soldier Asa has a C-level physique. Fortunately, he was standing far away. When the accident happened, Foxtail Sasaki who was standing nearby kindly helped him block it. Asa just staggered a bit with his head held, and quickly helped Sasaki to stand steadily.
"Thank you...thank you thank you...Sasa Sasa Sasaki...Sir..." He stammered and quickly let go of the hand that was holding Sasaki's military uniform.
Yes, he is the one who appeared in the previous chapter and stuttered when he was nervous, and he is Alph Xibing with C-level beast gene.
"Okay, okay... stop!" Foxtail Sasaki hurriedly called for a stop. His last name was Sasaki, not Sasaki Sasaki Sasaki. Stuttering... stuttering is contagious!
“Boss!”
"Ahhh, Boss!"
The groans of a bunch of junk below.
This was a bit too much. A rough voice rang out from the top of the cargo hold of the "Asayi Chief". "What kind of farce is this?"
Without even raising her head, Leila Ashai threw away the mechanical arm guard, and with her freshly washed hands and sharp nails, she began to deftly dismantle the metal structure of the outer compartment of the escape capsule. Although she liked to dismantle couriers violently, it did not mean that she was not proficient in it.
"Oh? Pirri?" Facing the provocation of the person who came, Leila chose to directly snort back, "You have nothing to do here, get out!"
Bang! The alpha on the top of the cargo hold jumped down, landed heavily in a squat, and came face to face with Leila Assay.
Face to face, less than three centimeters away. The male alpha who stood up was tall and strong, two meters and one meter tall, a head taller than Asai. He deliberately squinted at him with a provocative look on his face.
"What is this, it's so precious?" He smiled playfully, "Can't you open it here in front of everyone?" There was a hideous scar on this male alpha with a metal prosthetic ear and a slash across half of his face from the left forehead. His name was Pierrigley and he was the current third in command of Arale.
After the previous leader Arale quit, Pirli, as the former second-in-command, could have been successfully promoted, but who knew that a Layla Asay would debut from Black Star Kill temporarily!
As you can imagine, can this be dealt with on a daily basis? Because unlike Leila who can feed the whole family, Pierrige was born in the Siren Star and his relatives are also in the Siren Galaxy. The pirate separatism in the Siren Galaxy is very severe, the big fish eat the small fish, and the small fish eat the shrimp, so there is no possibility of flying alone and setting up a new mountain, not to mention that Leila Asai is strong enough.
For these alpha pirates who are naturally strong, what could be more decisive in determining obedience within the organization than personal strength?
Therefore, although Arale is consistent in all major actions, she always fights to the death over small matters. This is the combative and restless nature of alphas.
"You want to fight?" Leila Asay, who hated being attacked for height, threw the wrench in her hand away neatly and planned to talk with her fist. Is being a head taller a big deal?
Alpha's arrogant pheromones were stirring in the air. At first, it was just a duel between Leila Asay and Pierri.
Then, somehow it turned into a group fight.
Fists and feet flew with wrenches, and the chaotic collision of pheromones allowed Sasaki, the fox-tailed man who always claimed to "win people over with his brain", to join the battle. And Asa, the information soldier who was originally busy packing up the regulator of the escape capsule, was also dragged into the battle by the gossipy half-bald alpha pirate.
Ah, it's another day of daily fighting for the 'Arale' pirate group, one of the top three in the Siren Galaxy, which is ferocious, cruel and terrifying.
However, in the middle of the cargo hold that had long been unnoticed, the energy modulation handle that had been accidentally knocked over was switched to the maximum gear, and a thin electric current flashed.
The metal armor of the escape capsule's outer cabin, which had been difficult to dismantle, was now slowly opening.
The top note is the freshness and astringency of dewy lemon picked in the morning, while the middle note quickly turns into a light, sweet fragrance of white magnolia... This is the pheromone of omega, which slowly permeates the air with a weak but not negligible presence.
The originally arrogant and violent atmosphere at the scene suddenly stagnated.
