This time the destination is an abandoned planet numbered M359.
The star map has set the route in advance, and there will be intelligent AI reminders in case of unexpected situations. Annie changed back into the appearance of a human warrior, logged into her hunter account as the main account, and lay upside down on the soft sofa next to the cab to read the "history of use" of the M359.
This is a planet with depleted resources and no value. Its only function at present is to serve as a hunting area and a game venue. Almost all places starting with M are occupied by the Omnics, a highly intelligent race that communicates using data composed of 0s and 1s. Robots and all machines are just "clothes" to them, and their bodies can almost be said to be invisible, surviving between networks and precision chips.
Her mimicry expanded, and she passed her first maturity stage, becoming a little taller. Annie's hair was tied casually, her back pressed against the sofa, and her hair rubbed against the edges into a loose ponytail while she was reading. One of the tentacle arms rolled up the wine that Imolius had offered her, and another pried it open and passed it into her hands.
"...The intelligent supervisory 'angel' of the adult area of StarNet was once born here. The Science Association also conducted experiments here..." Ani pondered the content on the display screen for a while. The three words "adult area" stayed in her mind for a few seconds. A tentacle subconsciously climbed onto the virtual keyboard, trying to split the screen to search for content -
Ani held down the moving tentacle and threw it off the keyboard, muttering, "Now is not the time to admire the reproduction scene. I don't even have a child yet... How do other races give birth to so many children so easily?"
There is even a hint of envy in this kind of self-talk.
I cannot contact my mother and her life or death is unknown. She had to treat herself as the last mimic beast. Breeding was a mission that could not be betrayed for Annie. She put down the display screen, looked at the soft ceiling light, and the image of Xiao Mo's face wiping away tears flashed through her mind.
Annie raised her hand to turn off the virtual screen and stared at the light in a daze. The ceiling light illuminated her pupils that were not thinking, like a clock. At this moment, the voice prompt recorded by Lin sounded: "We have left the S star field, detecting the star map route... The route is normal, the star track is normal, the road section is safe and unobstructed..."
His voice paused for a moment, and the intelligent AI synthesized the teacher's voice, as if sighing helplessly in her ear: "Now there is an obstacle."
Ani stood up, jumped off the sofa, and sat back in the driver's seat. She glanced at the image on the star map and saw a fleet suddenly appearing near the asteroid belt consisting of 500,000 asteroids. The fleet is not large and does not seem to belong to a large organization. Preliminary judgment is that it is composed of exploration ships, pioneering ships, assault ships and several types of mechas capable of space flight.
She immediately started deep hiding, reduced speed, and manually changed the navigation route to prepare for a detour. However, just as she slowed down, the opponent's detector changed to a more aggressive radar band.
As the band changed, the assault ship suddenly accelerated and approached at a ferocious speed, rushing towards them like a wild beast. Annie instantly perked up and changed the driving mode to manual operation. More than a dozen tentacles spreading from her body crawled up to assist in micro-manipulation.
The opponent took the initiative to attack at an astonishing speed, but No. 01, given the natural disadvantage of passive reaction, immediately drew an arc to the side and subtly avoided the head-on collision. The energy shields of both sides vibrated and rippled as they passed each other.
No. 01's figure appeared for less than half a second, and then was quickly swallowed up by the hidden light shield, suddenly speeding up like a nimble fish.
Imolius offers very expensive accessories, and Ani can manually operate it to make its speed far above average. No. 01, which seemed to have a simple paint job, suddenly disappeared like a ghost.
The command ship in the middle immediately turned around and strengthened radar detection, and it seemed that it was going to give chase relentlessly. Ani licked her lower lip, thinking what does that mean? Highway robbery? She frowned and turned around, deliberately revealing a little of her figure, throwing out the trail like fishing.
The other party took the bait and the two fastest small starships rushed up. Annie controlled No. 01 to rush into the planetary belt without slowing down at all. She increased her speed and lifted her head in a short period of time, rising straight up. However, she deliberately waited for the opponent when he was about to catch up.
The muzzle of the gun under the wing was preheated and stored energy for a few seconds, ready to launch an attack at any time.
No. 01 has been highly modified and its power is far beyond the reach of ordinary detection starships.
The opponent's starship suddenly slowed down in front of the planetary belt and barely avoided it. It dodged several times to prevent the asteroid from hitting the energy shield. However, the moment the huge rock blocked its sight and flew past at high speed, the scene in front of him turned into a dark blue cannon muzzle. The submarine that disappeared and reappeared like a ghost delivered weapons of astonishing caliber from its lower belly.
Silent sea of stars.
A huge beam of light suddenly lit up silently, and the silent attack seemed to rumble in the driver's mind. At the same time, the starship's protective shield was pierced and shattered, the internal alarms rang out, the screen was filled with red light, and even the communications were beeping.
"Boss!" The driver reacted and screamed until his voice broke.
The voice from the command ship was electric, and the tone was painful: "Raise the white flag, quickly."
"Wouldn't our reputation be ruined then?!" The driver was still thinking about maintaining their collective honor.
"Stupid, that's my sister!"
Before the two small starships in front of them could come to their senses, the command ship surrounded in the middle lit up a circle of light curtains. On the energy-made light curtains, a sparkling universal language was crackling, indicating that the surrender was justified and reasonable:
"Ani!!! I was wrong!!!"
The mecha soldiers escorting nearby silently moved away from the command ship for a distance, as if they didn't want to be embarrassed along with the ship.
The next wave of bombardment of No. 01 was ready. Annie's fingertips stopped above the launch button, staring at the universal language for a second, then lowered her head and said to the intelligent AI: "Start starship communication."
"Okay, it's turned on." A gentle male voice sounded, "We've received a communication request from the Night Owl."
"Agree to communication."
"Okay, connect for Ani."
The system was matched with the large amount of radiation and bands in the starry sea and connected to the Night Owl. The voice on the other end was indeed someone's familiar voice, and the first thing he said was, "Where did our precious Nini go? She's worth so much money, where did you get so much money? I thought you were just an ordinary submarine. Don't fight, really don't fight, or it will crash."
Ani sat in the driver's seat without disarming herself. She raised her hand and continued to drink. She asked, "Have you been looking for me?"
Ling Yisan laughed, and Annie could hear the subtle desire hidden in his voice: "Of course, I also prepared a gift for you."
"You didn't tell me your pirate group was of this size."
Ani thought his men were similar to the ones she met on the air vehicle that day. A single mecha soldier could fight against the prototype of the Zerg warrior. Every time she glanced at a mecha, her eyes automatically began to count the money. The first time they met, he was greedy and exploited her. "... No wonder your eyes are so valuable. You can afford to support several kinds of space mechas, but you let your men search the Star Network accounts one by one, and even spared an innocent and pitiful little girl like me."
At this point, Ani suddenly realized and said, "You liar! You are not poor, you are just pretending to be poor!!"
"Hiss." Zero One Three stuck the shell, "Open the docking, I'll come to your place and explain it to you."
Ani snorted and said coldly, "No. I don't need your gifts. We are done with each other now. Next time we meet, I will kill you and withdraw money from Rednet."
Web pages that are not supervised by intelligent life have danger warnings in red fonts, so they are called "Red Net". Based on this name, Red Net also sets red as the default font color.
"My dear, can't you just listen to my explanation? You will definitely like this gift." Ling Yi San didn't take her words seriously, "Or I will stop you?"
A Ni said coldly, "Stop? Brother, we all grew up in poor families and have worked hard to build up some assets. You don't want me to destroy all of your ships one by one, do you?"
If Zero One Three had not just witnessed her driving skills, he would never have believed that Annie could break through the warships of the entire pirate group, nor would he believe that she could drive the submarine so deadly with just relying on an asteroid belt. She was just like an assassin who was used to risking her life and operating to the limit.
He ground his teeth, and the sound of his sharp teeth scraping against each other was obvious.
Ling Yi San paused, and said angrily, "...sooner or later I will go to the Aquamarine Planet and blow up your university. What kind of weird teaching is this?" He was a little reluctant, but softened his tone, "Nini, I have information about Lin, do you want to hear it?"
Teacher's information?
Ani was stunned for a moment: "Him? He won the first prize for teaching?"
Ling Yi San was amused. He laughed quietly for a long time and said lazily, "It should be the merit of commanding the ground counterattack. Tsk, I guess he didn't tell you. Hurry up and give me the access permissions. I want to see you."
Annie turned her head and saw that the docking channel of the Night Owl had been lowered ahead of time and the light shield disappeared. The night owl is coated in black, with colorful embellishments, and various fluorescent paints are used to draw stick figures of smiling faces laughing wildly.
It opened the docking bridge and circled around No. 01 silently. The scene was very strange.
Annie actually felt a sense of flattery from this arrogantly coated command ship. She turned on the authority, and the bridges of both ships were connected. She turned around and walked out of the cockpit, and saw Zero One Three walking into the cabin.
He has many wounds.
Ani noticed it at first sight. She frowned in confusion, wondering how come this man wouldn't die even if his internal organs were hollowed out, so why did he have so many scattered scars all over his body? The exposed backs of his hands alone were covered with a string of unhealed red scars, the freshest of which seemed to have been cut just a few minutes ago and was still bleeding slightly.
Ling Yi San was wearing a bright red coat and holding a piece of hard candy in his mouth. He squinted his eyes at her and said with a curled lip, "Oh, you've grown up?"
Ani crossed her arms and glanced at his face: "I guess that's when I entered adulthood."
"Ah?" He was stunned and asked with a strange look on his face, "You are just an adult? You... No, how do you calculate your age?"
"I will transform three times, and I will grow a little bigger each time. If there are people from the same tribe, they will probably celebrate my coming-of-age ceremony three times. But according to human age, I have already reached adulthood." Ani sat back on the sofa, looking past him and looking behind him, "Who did you bring with you?"
Ling Yi San walked over and sat down next to her, and a familiar little girl appeared behind her. The girl was about fifteen years old and looked very nervous. Ani took a moment to identify her and called out, "Lena?"
Lena looked at her in a daze, then suddenly burst into tears and rushed up to her and threw herself into her arms. The other two hands that stretched out from her armpits put on their clothes together, rushed over insecurely, and hugged Annie like a entanglement: "Virgin Mary... I, I found you..."
This is one of the residents of the ancient civilization infection zone.
Lena's family are all believers of the Church of Plenty, and her mother is Aunt Mara who handed bread to Ani when the church was being renovated.
Annie raised her hands and hugged her, a tentacle stretched out and gently stroked the top of her head, while turning to look at Ling Yi San.
Ling Yisan's hand went around to hug her shoulders. The man's tall body pressed against Annie, always intimate to the point of being dishonest. He smelled like candy. "After the live broadcast, the site was cleaned up. Most of the residents died in the 'cleanup', but some people escaped, about a dozen, and they have been looking for you."
"Looking for me?"
"Lord Joyful Envoy," Ling Yi San said in a drawn-out tone, his voice low and revealing a cold humor that was deliberately trying to win favor, "I will follow you to the death, can you please let this child let go of his hand and let me hug him first?"
Ani said coldly, "Then you cry too."
Zero One Three: “…”
He couldn't cry, so he could only wait for Lena to finish crying, staring at Annie and talking to her softly. She asked about the whereabouts of the others and asked Lena to go to the room of the submarine to rest for a while, and then compile a list of surviving believers after resting.
The little girl was dazed by the Virgin Mary's voice and was foolishly holding her tentacles with six hands, not realizing that there was anything wrong with doing so. She wiped her tears and went away obediently, looking back every few steps.
"I originally wanted to transform them and use them as backup members of my star pirate group." Ling Yi San said, "But they are too stubborn in their belief in you. It seems that they will turn to your side without any persuasion. How about I send them to you? Apart from anything else, is it okay for this little girl to do some odd jobs?"
Ani thought for a moment and said, "Lena is still young and can only guard the starship."
Ling Yi San smiled and said, "What about the others? Baby Nini, you don't want just this one—" He tapped the table with his finger, "It's a submarine. Didn't you say you wanted a fleet a long time ago? That requires subordinates."
He selectively ignored the reason why Ani wanted a starship.
This gift really made Ani’s mind active and she became a little excited.
She turned to look at Ling Yi San, nodded, and said sincerely, "Okay, thank you. You are my only brother. You are so kind, brother."
When Annie said this, the frequency of flashing of Zero One Three's artificial eyes increased noticeably. He was too easily affected by Annie's words and his emotions fluctuated. His skin, covered with tiny scars, pressed against hers eagerly. He couldn't help but lean over and bury his head in the crook of her neck. He took a deep breath, and the faint scent of her hair filled his chest.
"What a profit-seeking animal," he whispered, "he changes his face when there is something to gain. You bad boy Nini, you just left me there and didn't care about me."
There is some resentment in these words.
"Oh, isn't that for the sake of my brother's career?" Ani kept talking nonsense without changing her expression, placing her hand on his chest in a familiar manner. Her palm just covered that spot, and she rubbed it twice unceremoniously, "In order to free you from the control of desire, yes, that's it."
Ling Yisan looked down at her hands. The girl's fingers were symmetrical and strong, and she was playing with them as if she were a toy with no restraint. His Adam's apple rolled, but he didn't stop the other person: "You made me like this, and you didn't even call me properly. I just tried my best to find you now."
He didn't look very calm.
In the days and nights after Annie left, her body, which had been transformed to the point of being almost broken, missed the touch of tentacles and mucus every moment. He would occasionally enter a manic-depressive state where no medication could help... Only when he fantasized about her would he become excited, sensitive, and highly focused.
Annie's fingertips turned into the long nails of a mermaid and cut open his collar. The tight clothes were torn by sharp nails, revealing the full chest muscles underneath. His body is strong and sturdy, with muscles tightly covering his bones. His mermaid line is neatly hidden below his waist. His muscle lines are clear but not wild, revealing a soft and fleshy feel.
Ani stared at him in a daze. She almost wanted to describe him as tempting, as if she could squeeze water out of this vital body with just her hands.
...Or is it milk or nectar or something else that is squeezed out? Annie was in a trance for a moment, and this thought inexplicably came to her mind.
There were several lines of handwriting written on his body, some were brand new, some were old and faded, but the only thing in common was that the words were not destroyed by scars.
Ani finally realized that something was wrong. She placed her fingertips on Ling Yi San's heart and suddenly asked, "Why isn't it healing?"
Ling Yi San lowered his head and bit open her collar with his teeth, forgetting about the pirate group waiting for instructions behind him. He paused and said, "Don't worry about it..."
Ani raised her hand and pinched his chin, pried open the man's mouth with her fingers, and pressed her knuckles against his sharp teeth: "You have to take care of it."
She stroked the tip of the other person's teeth, sorted out her thoughts, and asked, "What are you using to relieve the pain? Brother, didn't you say that you can just cut off the modified part? Why don't you cut off the gestational sac? It won't affect you if you cut it off."
Ani was indeed confused. She was unable to cut off the gestational sac, so she could only use her small tentacles to carefully repair the damaged parts in the other person's abdominal cavity. But Ling Yi San should be able to do it himself.
Ling Yi San stared into her eyes, and suddenly bit Annie's finger hard, grinding it hard, piercing her hand and drawing blood. Annie felt a deep hatred from his actions, but immediately, he pulled her wrist and hugged her tightly and anxiously, as if he wanted every inch of her skin and every painful wound to overlap closely with her breath, just like a kiss.
"...I was the one who controlled the wound to not heal." His voice was a little hoarse, as if he had some terrible disease. Annie could not hear any trace of rationality. "You used the words 'out of service area' to get rid of me, and you didn't even bother to make up an excuse, little monster, I will bite you to death."
Annie's hand stroked his spine, and the man who hugged her tightly let out gasps and groans that were comfortable but not completely satisfied. He really hated Annie and bit her shoulder mercilessly, his fangs piercing her skin and drawing blood. Ling Yi San then licked the bloody mark like a dog and said to her as if he was suffering from separation anxiety: "I miss you so much... I miss you so much... Nini, make me worse, whether it's pain or punishment, let me feel you are here..."
His breath climbed up her neck and bit the skin of her neck, leaving bright bite marks on it. But Ling Yi San was still in agony. The string in his mind was tense as he whispered, "Tie me to your side."
Ani doubted whether he knew what he was talking about. She grabbed the end of his hair and pulled it towards her, staring into his red eyes: "Are you crazy?"
"Yes." He smiled, revealing a wildness that never changes. "I will bite to death every man who comes close to you."
Ani has always been polite and rarely curses, but at this moment she couldn't help but curse him: "Bitch."
He immediately lowered his head and kissed her fiercely, his strong body enveloped her with an oppressive feeling. Ani's tentacles entangled his legs, and a soft little tentacle climbed up and clumsily slapped the man's chest, making a loud popping sound.
Ling Yi San's breathing stopped for a moment. He grabbed the tentacle and whispered to Annie, "It's red."
Ani smiled and said, "Stupid dog, if you ask the master to be more forceful and slap your chest until it swells..."
He eagerly sealed her lips. These words made his scarred body taste a different kind of pain and made him so excited that he almost lost control.
