Chapter 38 Our Date

Everything went as he wished.

"No..." Su Xi whispered, looked up at the man's expression, and added seriously: "I want to say thank you."

No matter what kind of conflict they had before falling into the wormhole, at least he had saved her many times and tried his best to protect her. Su Xi was not stupid, she was very grateful to him, but no matter how grateful she was, she still had to get back what belonged to her.

After all, she had no more equipment except the armor, and she was not in the habit of relying on others for her survival.

She looked up and saw the tall alpha opposite her with a domineering aura and his thin lips slightly pursed with a perennial coldness and ruthlessness.

After hearing her sincere thanks, although her eyes were focused and her face remained calm, Alph Xisu unexpectedly gave off a feeling of unhappiness and extreme depression, and the restrained anger rolled around her.

Su Xi took a deep breath and boldly went to get her things back: "Sir, sir, the things in your hand are mine... Can you give them back to me?"

Eyes as blue as the deep sky stared at her indifferently. Alph's originally restrained emotions seemed to be suddenly ignited by her words. A high-level sense of oppression filled the small space!

Su Xi had a little trouble breathing. She bit her lip, and a sense of grievance rose in her heart. Taking other people's things! Not being reasonable! And, even more vicious!

The pheromones that had originally felt strange also changed little by little. The intimacy of their kisses, the imprint of the first bite, the familiar strength and dominance as cold as fire, were no longer lurking and restrained, but slowly surrounded her like a roaring beast, locking onto its prey.

At this moment, even if her information glands were dull, she could no longer pretend not to know him.

As the release of pheromones was deliberately accelerated, the gene disguise agent gradually lost its effect. The ends of Hall's originally silver-gray hair gradually turned a little red, and his originally disguised appearance also changed a little.

"Sir?" The alpha with a stern look finally spoke, his voice ending in a slight curl, with a hint of danger.

"Ah, no!" Pretending to be suddenly enlightened, Su Xi stared at Fitzgerald, who had revealed his true face, and then changed her words: "It turned out to be you, Your Highness!"

"I can't believe it..." Su Xi wanted to say "what a coincidence", but when she saw the other person's expression, she wisely stopped talking.

Fitzgerald still looked at her with dissatisfaction, but he knew that he had almost made a mistake and did not blame her.

They were both silent, each thinking about their own things.

The tiny space bubble swayed with the chaotic energy vortex in the wormhole. When the transparent film and external force field collided, it occasionally flashed with extremely dazzling five-colored light. They were thus trapped in this tiny space bubble that flashed with faint light, forming a world of their own.

It seems to be wandering in the extremely macroscopic universe, and it also seems to exist invisibly inside extremely microscopic particles.

Su Xi held her breath with an animal instinct, but her eyes kept drifting towards the insect in the man's hand.

"Yours?" He played with the grey hollow ball in his knuckle-jointed hands, occasionally tossing it up and down.

The insect armor that Su Xi received as a gift from Holdman had lost its activity when it first entered this space-time vortex. Now it was just a dull gray stone-like substance.

He looked at her and asked casually, "But now it's already trash, why do you still want it so much?"

"Yes, I want it!" Su Xi said decisively, looking up and glaring at the domineering alpha in front of her! She complained with a little resentment in her heart, you are a top-level boss with all the stars! But I am really poor! Why do you look down on my "junk"!

The omega opposite him had a disrespectful expression, a rude tone, and a bit of viciousness in his eyes! But Fitzgerald's heart seemed to be grabbed by a small hand and gently twisted a few times, and his heart was filled with tenderness and sympathy that he had never experienced before. He lowered his eyes to look at her, and a very subtle smile curved on his usually indifferent face.

Su Xi tugged at the tent nervously. The isolation tent that Foxtail had prepared for her had been torn into pieces in the first space tear. The pull exposed the tight-fitting dress inside. The rich omega scent was no longer concealed and diffused faintly in this small space bubble.

Fitzgerald frowned, took out a piece of clothing from the space button and threw it over her head. It was his combat uniform, which had the function of isolating pheromones and protecting against radiation.

She bowed her head and said thank you. Her little animal instinct made her not dare to ask any more questions and she put it on obediently. The wide uniform still had a faint scent of him. After she put it on, it was long enough to reach her thighs, making her look even more petite and vulnerable.

After I put on my clothes, the atmosphere calmed down for a while and it seemed that I couldn't be angry anymore.

Su Xi planned to discuss the current situation and then find a way to get the things back.

"We are now..."

"Button up your collar too!" This was a rather cold and hard command. After a pause, he added, "The pheromone isolation button is on the second button. Turn it on."

Su Xi followed every step carefully, her slender white fingers struggling with the metal button, but she couldn't help but glance at the insect in the other person's hand.

"Okay, I'll give it back to you." Fitzgerald suddenly softened his tone, slowly approached, slowly pulled up her hand, and placed the gray hollow ball in her palm.

But he did not let go as he did before. Instead, he held her hand along with the gray hollow ball in his palm.

Feeling the warm touch and the faint smell of the other person's coat, Su Xi's ears slowly turned red.

"I'll teach you how to use it." He said. Although the clothes did a good job of isolating her overly seductive scent, the knowledge that he had once been naked and close-fitting clothes were on her made him feel extremely hot.

Fitzgerald slowly lowered his eyes, hiding the suppressed darkness in his eyes.

"This space bubble will be destroyed if it cannot withstand the next space distortion. There is still some time. You can try to activate the insect armor to create a shield again."

"It has already turned gray. If it is forged by another person, it will be completely ruined." He lowered his eyes to look at her, wrapped his fingers around hers and slowly stroked the gray hollow ball, guiding her to re-carve the running patterns on the beetle armor, and said: "Since you still want it, then you have to rely on your own mental strength to reactivate it."

"Can you do it?" he asked softly. His face was still stern, but his tone was so gentle that if Holderman saw him, he would definitely suspect that this was a fake Fitzgerald.

"Yes!" Su Xi looked up at him and answered affirmatively without hesitation.

Looking at this brown-haired omega who was almost held in his arms, a pair of amber eyes on his delicate face burst into an exciting and moving light!

It was so bright that it seemed to swallow one in one gulp. Fitzgerald closed his eyes slightly, suppressed his inappropriate emotions, and explained to Su Xi very patiently, "Now we don't know how long we will be lost in the wormhole before we can find the correct return point. If you can use the output energy correctly and control it carefully, our chances of survival will be higher."

The omega tilted her head slightly with a serious look, but Fitzgerald felt that it was more confusing than any deliberate pheromone seduction. Her scent had been well contained in the isolation suit, but it seemed that it did not play a decisive role in blocking his estrus threshold that was on the verge of breaking.

The gland sensors began to heat up slightly, causing his scalp to tingle slightly.

Su Xi asked seriously: "How much time do we have to prepare now?"

'We'? Two simple words, pronounced lightly by the gentle touch of lips. From his mouth, and from hers.

He was stunned for a moment, then chuckled. Pleasant pheromones replaced his previous irritable and depressed temper, and it seemed that even the surging emotions were not so difficult to control.

Su Xi was stunned for a moment, and immediately felt the previous tense and hot oppressive feeling dissipate a little, and then was stunned for a while by this sudden smile.

"We will pass through the seventh energy vortex in about twenty minutes, and the space distortion will occur before that. We only have one time to demonstrate and practice, so you must seize the opportunity!"

We. He chewed on this word again in his heart, and his happy voice had a hint of laughter.

He gently placed his hand on her forehead and slowly moved closer. "Our chances of survival depend on you."

We. Su Xi blushed and thought: Why is the pronunciation so ambiguous! Slowly, as if deliberately turning the word around on the tip of the tongue.

The silver-gray hair had already faded to a more than half flame-like color, and a few strands of it playfully brushed against her face, in an extremely intimate way.

He closed his eyes and said in a hoarse voice.

Then he gently pressed his smooth, full forehead against hers through his hand.

Just like the first time, the icy blue silver light of the spiritual power attracted her, guiding her to carefully activate the temporary barrier composed of insect armor, and re-activate the forging! The gray substance gradually regained its vitality under the infusion of the emerald blue spiritual power.

Time goes by and the air becomes thinner.

Gradually, as the difficulty of control increases, the demand for mental energy output also increases significantly!

Su Xi habitually detached her senses to achieve the effect of increasing her concentration, and it was very effective! Her mental energy, which had been weak, surged again, but the bad thing was that her perception of space and the various perceptions of the man in front of her also became blurred.

I could vaguely hear a sigh beside me, with a hint of barely perceptible worry.

'By shielding the senses, it is indeed possible to maximize the concentration of spiritual energy, but this is a bad habit that will hinder subsequent advancement.'

'This must be changed.'

Then, a very familiar presence sent a guiding signal in her mind at a very private frequency. 'But now there is not enough time for you to practice slowly.'

'Can I help you?'

A familiar question.

"good."

Still an irresistible request.

*

While Su Xi was still experiencing the wormhole adventure, she didn't know that there was a person, a young man who had received the spiritual counseling she gave and left a mark on him, who was anxious and regretful about her disappearance.

The Siren System. The Outpost. Oh, maybe now it should be called the Princess Arale, the giant expedition mothership.

At the transmission point of the Key of Arale, in the once brilliant holographic control hall, the packaging of a bag of jelly beans was ravaged to the point that the original appearance could not be seen clearly. Only a few surviving beans were scattered on the old floor that was still bright hundreds of years ago but now was mottled.

Chris stood in front of Leila Asay with his arms folded. "Didn't you want to know why I came to Arale?"

"According to the latest genetic calculations, the remaining insect nuclei hidden by the previous generation of the queen of the insect race are twins with the same frequency. The abnormality that just occurred means," Chris said solemnly, "the one hidden and secretly sold at the Fortune Trade Fair, if it is not a mother insect with space abilities, then it is a king-level space-hopping insect that was hatched at the same time as the mother insect was born."

"No matter which situation it is, it means that the Zerg, which has been defeated for nearly a thousand years, has begun preparing to create another Zerg tide!"

Hearing this, Leila Asai's golden eyes were solemn. He and Chris had both experienced the tragic situation of the Zerg massacring civilians. He could relate to the heaviness in Chris's tone.

"Although you said you are not sure how much of the species' memories this escaped insect core still has, and you are not sure whether it is a queen insect or a general-level leapfrog insect, its destination must be the insect nest!"

Leila Asai suddenly smiled, revealing the sharpness of a young man. "Then I will go to the insect nest to guard it!"

"Asay! What happens next has nothing to do with you!" Chris emphasized: "You are too slow to complete this commission! His Highness has given me clear instructions, your mission has been completed! And the balance has been paid!"

Although Fitzgerald's order to Chris was brief and concise, only asking her to 'settle the account' and 'handle the follow-up'! But Chris, who had been handling secret missions for many years and had dealt with Su Xi, knew the things between His Highness and the omega best than anyone else. How could she not know the meaning behind just a few words?

As for Leila Assay, there are many complicated "aftermaths" that need to be dealt with, and this is not the only one.

But now Leila Asai's expression forced her to soften her tone, and Chris urged her again: "Come back with me to the Zuowei family. The quota for genetic recombination will be reserved for you. I don't know how many people are jealous of your treatment! If I, as an alpha, have the qualifications for continuous evolution, this quota will not be reserved for you to return, understand?"

"You're such an enviable guy!" Chris rubbed his head helplessly.

"It has nothing to do with me? Even if the mission is over," Leila Asai glanced at her and said indifferently, "She has the 'Key of Arale' and left a spiritual mark on me. How can she have nothing to do with me?"

He tapped his brow with his finger and said, "She even knows that Leila is here."

"Chris, tell me," the leopard-eared boy's golden eyes flashed with a light that Chris found very strange, "how can such a bond be called unrelated?"

"Let's go!" The blond leopard-eared boy stood up and stretched his waist vigorously! His slender figure showed his vigorous power!

"After the energy of the space vortex subsided, the material ejection of the wormhole has always been irregular. Without the auxiliary positioning of the 'Key of Arale', you will not be able to find them accurately!"

Chris thought about it and agreed: "Okay! But before you follow me back to the First Fortress, go back to Zuo's house first."

"If you agree, I agree!"

Leila Asay was silent, her beautiful golden eyes were in deep struggle with the memories of the past.

Chris raised his eyebrows and continued to analyze: "That omega is still missing. With her weak mental power, she may not even be able to open the space button! The 'Arale Key' is just an ordinary decoration on her. If you hesitate any longer, you may not even have the chance to collect the body."

"Okay, I agree." Leila Asay could no longer hesitate.

Chris worked quickly. After contacting Mary and telling her his plans, he took Leila Asai on board the warship back to the First Fortress.

"We are doing our best to search and rescue, but I suggest you be mentally prepared and don't be too persistent!"

In order to prevent him from having too much hope and thus a huge psychological gap, Chris patiently pointed out to Leila Asay, who was sitting in the space chair with a gloomy expression, "After falling into the wormhole, all matter will be separated and then reassembled. Even if Your Highness lends a helping hand to her..."

"But the unique spatial vortex in the sub-type III wormhole will also completely separate different individuals that are together, and they will fall into different dimensions of space..."

"If that happens—"

"Think about it, how could she survive with her weak body and no equipment?"
