Chapter 23 Strong Fight
*
As mentioned earlier, Su Xi, who had already negotiated the details with Foxtail Sasaki, had happily begun her adventure and sightseeing time on the main ship of the interstellar pirate 'Arale'.
Well, of course! As a single omega, you will always encounter some "special" experiences on the tour of the famous interstellar pirate 'Arale' flagship.
Especially when you are a fragrant omega, wandering alone on a ship full of ferocious pirates, wandering among a group of stinky alphas.
What is the reason for her fearlessness?
Leila Asay sometimes ponders this question as she watches the farce below.
Does she think she is beautiful enough? Is she beautiful enough to recreate the miraculous truce on the star rings of the "War of the Roses" a hundred years ago?
Tsk—Leila snorted with a laugh and pulled her lips silently.
Does she think that she is the 'only' and 'precious' omega, so that she believes that neither A nor B dares to really hurt her?
Ha—how is that possible!
In the culture of the star pirates, there is only the concept of "the strong is king", and there is no concept of "gender is precious". Unlike the human empire, other civilized galaxies are tamed and dominated by the AO theory, and they strictly emphasize morality and ethics to maintain social connections and organizational operations.
Bang! Another sneaky alpha was knocked over!
"Do you want to ask why?"
"Because, now I am the master of Arale!"
"The weak omega in your eyes is your 'master'!"
Her honey brown curly hair was trimmed again, just above her earlobes, and her amber eyes were gentle and smiling. She didn't care about emitting her rich, sweet, and tempting omega scent.
"Can't help it?"
"Is it the omega's fault?"
"Or was it your fault that it was cut off?"
Then he turned to the short and fat alpha who was pinned against the wall by the cannon barrel and asked, "Should I destroy your glands?"
"So," she said softly, at a volume that everyone present could hear, "I will never be bothered by omega-3 hormones again?"
"Is it okay?"
As the hunted, she was so calm yet smiled wantonly. She stood with her arms folded on a beast-type mecha that was being maintained, looking down at the activated maintenance robot that knocked down the invading alphas one by one.
"As an omega with poor physical strength, I really can't defeat you in terms of strength."
"But this doesn't mean you can get an advantage~!"
Leila Asai just stood on the maintenance platform on the second floor, looking down at the farce on the scene with an expressionless face. He did not make a move, or rather, he did not have the opportunity to make a move, as the omega dealt with the sneak attacks and provocations of everyone on his own.
Wasn't it that he condoned this situation that happened over and over again? But when he saw her being besieged, he felt strangely uncomfortable.
Alphas do have a mentality of admiring the strong, and have the social habit of obeying and being strong, but that only applies to the alpha gender itself. No matter how strong an omega is, he will be despised. Only by becoming an existence that surpasses others and is admired by them can they be absolutely suppressed mentally.
Therefore, even those who knew about the incident in the cargo hold of the main ship Arale seven days ago, most of them did not regard this omega as someone who had truly "defeated" them.
Such scenes reminded Leila Asai of her childhood, when she loved to challenge opponents of higher levels in life-and-death battles. But Chris was a beta after all, and after the first mission, he was hired as an exception by the strongest alpha in the empire, who had been his backer and endorsed his achievements and abilities, which gave him the prestige and unquestionable reputation as a strong man today.
But as for this omega, he knew inexplicably that she had an unquestionable strong heart. This familiar yet strange feeling, although it had been explained as the sequelae of 'perceptual disorder' brought about by the first rough mental connection, was a common sequelae between mental counselors and patients.
But what is she so confident about? Is it because of the intelligent quasi-life form named 'Xiguang'?
But the definition of a strong person in this era has never been based on external things.
Then, he looked indifferently at the four or five knocked down alphas. After their companions reset the program passwords of the out-of-control mechanical arms and robots in the maintenance cabin, they climbed up one by one and rushed towards the frail figure without any obedience!
"Hi," the girl suddenly said, looking up: "Leila!"
She looked accurately in the direction of Leila Asay on the second floor and called out to him clearly: "Come down quickly!"
"Yeah." He responded lazily and walked downstairs slowly.
cut!
The pirates who were preparing to continue making trouble or watching the show suddenly burst into laughter and dispersed.
Looking at the leopard-eared boy walking slowly towards her, the girl asked doubtfully, "Didn't you say you would show me your armor? And then test the docking data with the newly debugged system of the main ship..."
"Why so slow?"
"Why are you in such a hurry? I won't run again!" He kicked the mecha's lift platform away impatiently and pulled the girl up. "Stand still!"
Leila Asai's mentality was very strange, with a cautious trust, with a desire to distance but also to get closer. He knew that this was not a manifestation of the sequelae of "perception disorder". Why was that? The omega in front of him seemed to be unaware of his thoughts. He was just waiting with excitement to visit his exclusive beast-type mecha.
"Yeah!" Su Xi immediately put the previous episode behind her. To her, the anger of those people was just dust. It was enough to clean it once. It would be meaningless to keep bothering with it. She excitedly entered the interior of the armor and began her own exploration. Although she had observed it several times on the three-dimensional model, it was not as real as touching it with her own hands!
Although Leila's tone was impatient, she followed Suxi's instructions. The two of them were sitting close to each other, and Suxi couldn't help but reach out and touch Leila's ear when she got excited!
Meow! Why are you rubbing my ears again!
No! Snap—open it with one claw!
Then the other person reaches out and pats it to soothe it, then rubs it. Using five fingers as a comb, he starts to comb the hard scalp, then takes advantage of the moment to gently touch the ears.
Mmm... so comfortable~! Leila Asai squinted her eyes, turned on the battle simulation system, and let the other party play. Then she lazily lay half-lying on the operating chair and did it again~~
The roots of the ears too!

This happened a few times, and no one bothered to find fault anymore. But Leila Asai also often hid strangely. Even if she could accurately locate him with the "Key of Arale", Leila, who always sensed her coming, would always slip away in advance.
Su Xi simply stopped looking for him. She was not in a hurry to complete the agreement ahead of time and return to Yindu Star where she had no sense of belonging. Moreover, how would she survive in this interstellar era? Although she had drafted several ideas in her mind, she had no direction in the end.
Daily strolls and exploration of Arale's main ship became her new hobby.
Unlike the Sun Devourer, which is full of futuristic design style, the Arale is a huge mining ship modified based on the Empire's third-generation technology. From the exterior to the interior, it is full of rough mining style. Although this behemoth has a soft name, no matter its tonnage or the top-level neutron weapon system of the third-generation technology, it is a daunting existence for the enemy.
At the beginning, Su Xi just wandered around the mecha maintenance cabin, the periphery of the power reactor, and other places. Occasionally, he would go to the ship's berth to take a look. In short, the place where he wandered around at the beginning must be a place where there were handy weapons and where "Xi Guang" could control it.
Therefore, even though chaos was inevitable when they encountered sneak attacks or attempted coercion, after experiencing it a few times, people knew that although Su Xi had no one else to use, she had control of the entire "Arale" ship.
Just now, on the way back to the lounge from the mecha maintenance cabin, someone quietly followed. Su Xi did not stop, but actually kept a close eye on the movements through the camera, and finally, turned a blind spot of the surveillance camera! The other party made a move, and this time he was smart enough to find a blind spot to attack. However, didn't he know that there was an air duct under his feet, so there was no surveillance camera?
Su Xi steadily crossed the yellow line marking the prohibition sign, touched the ear-worn communicator, and then opened the air duct.
Swish—the wind blew upward! The opponent screamed as he was blown to the vent that suddenly opened above his head.
Outside of that is the vacuum universe!
So, a few days later, some of the alphas she met along the way still looked at her with dark eyes, but they no longer came forward, while others greeted her with a smile, looking very friendly and not caring at all.
This time, Su Xi came to the largest neutron cannon liquid anti-condensate device room on the main ship. The huge blower was turning slowly, and the exposed pipes and wires were crisscrossed on the ground. From time to time, steam would puff out. To use an adjective from Earth, it was a very punk steam style.
Su Xi was very surprised that the third generation mining technology of the Human Empire still retained such ancient principles, so she had to come and see it with her own eyes. She hung the cobblestone pendant on her hand, and a faint blue light lit up, illuminating the surroundings. At the same time, a cute red-haired boy's flat image popped out of the blue light. This was 'Xi Guang'.
Since they found that although the U-mass carrier can be activated by the energy on 'Arale', it will inevitably be more or less damaged with each use. The pirates did not understand this, and Su Xi became more cautious and low-key after understanding it. She did not let 'Xiguang' materialize unless it was necessary, but kept contact and communication in a state with the lowest energy consumption.
But she would also feel lonely, especially when the lounge on the main ship only had a small round window, and outside the window was always the lonely drifting meteorites and space debris.
At this time, Xiguang said, "Sister, the three-dimensional diagram of Arale's main ship, including its auxiliary ships, the structure diagram, the weapon distribution diagram... and various historical data are all stored in my memory. Why do you still need to come and measure it in person?"
Su Xi smiled and touched the cute red-haired boy projected in the air. She liked the personality of this AI that was set according to her own preferences. After several adjustments, it greatly comforted her emotional needs as a human being and her desire to talk and confide.
"Although I can obtain all the information from the U-link and feel as if I am in your virtual field, I am still a carbon-based life form, a human being." As she spoke, she hung the pendant on the universal transport robot that followed, and then picked up the light screen tablet to record the test data.
"I can certainly experience the power of AI superpowers by being in deep sync with you in the U-quality link, but as a human being, I also have goals that I cannot give up. I want to become stronger as a human being with a clear mind."
"Instead of..." She was silent for a moment.
"Turn yourself into a non-human being."
"Although that feeling is fascinating," she stopped working on the tablet, squinted her beautiful eyes and recalled, "It's the feeling of overlooking all irrational existence and mastering everything."
"Judgment is the world's standard, based only on 0 and 1. If it is logical, it exists. Otherwise, it will be wiped out in the process of self-evolution."
"This knowledge of everything, this godlike arrogance..."
"That's right," she hadn't finished her words when Xiguang, who was rolling around in the steam opposite her, suddenly jumped over and interrupted her, "What fun~!"
"Hey! Be careful~"
"Stupid sister, I'm just a virtual projection now!"
Su Xi grabbed the virtual boy's round waist and played with it for a few times. She sighed in her heart and said nothing. Otherwise, she would mess up the logic of this AI again.
"Okay!" Su Xi smiled, packed up the tools, placed them all on the small general-purpose transport robot, then stepped onto the suspended vehicle. She did not let Xiguang take back the virtual projection, and they just walked back together.
"Let's go back!"
Woo-woo-woo
The horn of the suspended car suddenly blew loudly, and it instantly increased to maximum speed from a standstill, and they were flying at high speed in the belly of the steel monster that was as spacious as an underground maze!
The thrill of flying made Su Xi laugh out loud.
