Chapter 21
"Do you feel anything?"
Inside the laboratory, behind the door, the woman in a white coat held the hand of the girl beside her and asked impatiently.
The girl nodded silently, wanting to tell the other person that she had pinched her hand too hard and it hurt, but when she saw the nervous and twitching expression on the other person's face, she swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue.
She looked young, in the prime of her youth, yet thin and pale, with large, watery eyes, and looked as delicate and pitiful as a malnourished flower bud about to bloom.
Looking closely, she looks somewhat similar to Wen Yuxiao, especially her eyes, which are almost as reserved and subtle as if they were carved from the same mold.
"I... said hello to him." The girl hesitated, afraid of causing the doctor unnecessary and excessive worry, so she did not tell him the fact that when she first made contact with him through mental power, the other party reacted instantly, pinched her neck without any mercy, looked her up and down with disgust, and then kicked her away.
The female doctor's face broke into a somewhat sinister smile. She then grasped the girl's delicate wrists with both hands, squeezing them hard enough to break bones. She grinned and laughed, "That's good, that's good!"
Then, she realized something and instructed, "Tomorrow... No, we have to leave here overnight."
These unreasonable words made the girl stunned for a few seconds. She frowned in pain, but the doctor, who always cared about her so much, seemed not to see it and kept muttering something like a madman.
"What's going on?"
Finally, she asked the question that had been bothering her from the beginning.
The girl recalled that she woke up in a vessel several people high filled with green culture medium. Doctors in white coats surrounded her and praised her. Amidst the faint sound of discussion, she made out a few confusing sentences, such as "I didn't expect this gene to be successful" and "Fortunately, I had the king insect blood sample that I had hidden before."
She didn't understand, she didn't comprehend, her mind was blank, she couldn't think, and she didn't understand anything.
But soon, the doctors took her out of the petri dish. A female doctor with the kindest face took her hand and coaxed her like a newborn baby: "It's okay, I'm here, I'm here..."
Then everyone told her that she was the Zerg Queen who was seriously injured and lost her memory in the great war that year, and she had seven powerful and brave Overlords under her command who were looking for her all over the galaxy.
However, the seven Overlords plotted to usurp the throne and betray her. She might have been seriously injured in the battle that year. These doctors, all loyal former subordinates, secretly rescued her and planned to return her to inherit the throne once her injuries were healed and she could regain control of the seven Overlords.
The girl was like a blank piece of paper, and anything could be written on it, so she believed it.
Until today, they said that a king insect would come for academic exchanges. This was a good opportunity to test how much her strength had recovered. Everyone was willing to risk her life being discovered and let her give it a try.
Now that they had come into contact, the other party's obviously unfriendly attitude made her suspicious.
Didn’t you say that you were at least respectful to the Queen on the surface? How come you almost strangled me to death with just mental contact?
She thought the other party would at least do some superficial work, such as coaxing her to the main star with a respectful attitude, and then undermining her rights and making her a puppet without real power.
But the king insect kicked her away with disdain, as if she was not a queen of noble status who could cause them to lose control, but a withered yellow leaf that they accidentally stepped on.
After a while, the female doctor regained her kind and peaceful demeanor. She seemed to realize her own gaffe and tried to cover it up with a smile. "I'm talking about the Zerg. The risk of this contact is too great. We need to move quickly."
"Is that the Overlord?" The girl didn't nod in agreement, but instead seemed to be lost in thought. "It feels... very different."
The female doctor, fully aware of the truth, patted the girl's head and whispered her name, "Don't be afraid... Inar, that race, those Overlords will eventually submit to you. They will kneel before the noble Queen like dogs, begging for her favor. When that time comes, when that time comes, you will be the ruler of this universe..."
Inar's suspicion was not dispelled by this bewitching whisper. Instead, it planted a small seed in her heart. She felt that something seemed to be different.
Military training started immediately after the lecture. Fortunately, the school leaders did not expect a group of frail omegas and mediocre betas in the school to carry guns to the battlefield. They assigned them logistical tasks and began to train the alpha next door to death.
The instructors are all retired military personnel, and some are even still serving. They have been transferred to the elite team in the school to monitor a group of talented and outstanding alphas.
The military training uniforms had been distributed the night before, and each person had to pay a lot of money, which was another expense. Wen Yuxiao touched the poor quality fabric and thought that it was true that schools were the easiest to make money from no matter where they were. The principal could just find an excuse to collect some tuition fees and drive a new car.
She'd slack off whenever she could, of course. The school at least gave her some benefits, and they even got a bit of a stipend for their work in logistics. Even the smallest mosquito is still meat. She had originally wanted to work as a water delivery girl, running errands, but An Xiaoya said she was afraid of socializing alone, so she dragged her to the cooking area.
This involves her blind spot in knowledge, and she wants to use this opportunity to lay a foundation for her cooking class so as to avoid failing in the future.
Before coming, An Xiaoya swore that she was also a novice, but as soon as she touched the kitchen utensils, she began to stir-fry skillfully. In no time, she made a dish of delicious food. She picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and put it in her mouth, and asked her how it tasted.
Wen Yuxiao was still cutting vegetables slowly, but he didn't control the strength of the knife well, and was caught off guard by the food. He almost cut his finger without paying attention.
She stopped what she was doing, nodded, and praised the other person's cooking skills. Then she noticed something was wrong: "Wait, didn't you say you don't know how to cook at all?"
An Xiaoya defended herself: "Hahaha, I've seen my mom do this kind of thing at home, so I have some experience..."
Okay, no more words needed, she was fooled, it turned out that he was a big guy pretending to be a newbie.
The aroma of food could also be smelled from other people's places. The girls gathered together and discussed what to cook with laughter. Their hands were not slow and they quickly made three dishes and a soup.
The only one who was weak, pitiful and helpless was Wen Yuxiao, who felt like she was a bronze player who accidentally entered the King's game. No, she couldn't be considered a bronze player anymore. She was just a newbie who had downloaded the game less than three minutes ago, but she was dragged by her King's boss friend to play in the peak game. Everyone there had real skills, and she was probably the only one in the audience whose skill was to cook instant noodles in a fancy way, with at most a sausage.
Fortunately, the three exchange students from the Zerg made a brilliant appearance at this moment, and everyone went over to join in the fun. They surrounded that place so tightly that not even a hair of Ahoko could be seen. From time to time, one or two exclamations and cheers were heard, and no one paid attention to her atrocious vegetable-cutting skills.
An Xiaoya looked at the green onions she had cut, which were of different lengths and shapes, and finally realized that her roommate really didn't know how to cook. In order to avoid being kicked out of the cooking group, she quickly started tutoring her.
"Oh, that's sugar, don't put it in there!"
"Wait, why aren't the fish in the pot jumping up and hitting you when you're so far away?"
There was a commotion. Wen Yuxiao guessed that An Xiaoya's blood pressure must have skyrocketed, so she quickly brought a stool over for her to sit on and relax, lest a delicate omega would suddenly punch her to the ground. She then attentively took a small fan and fanned her.
"Ha ha."
A harmless laugh came from the side.
Wen Yuxiao was startled and looked around the empty surroundings. Finally, she noticed that there was a gentle, handsome and elegant boy looking at them.
"I'm sorry," the other person apologized to her, "I just thought it was interesting... If you don't mind, I can teach you."
An Xiaoya signaled her with her eyes to try it. It was obvious that the other person had no ill intentions and said that it would take some time to lower her blood pressure.
Wen Yuxiao hesitated for a moment and nodded in agreement.
Then she discovered that her novice tutorial NPC was here.
An Xiaoya probably thought that everyone has a talent for cooking, and if that's not possible, they can still learn a little bit from daily observation and observation, so she skipped the basics and went straight to the advanced level. Unexpectedly, she met her, a complete newbie, so both of them were exhausted.
This boy is different. His tone is very soft, he speaks softly and his pronunciation is clear, which gives people an auditory enjoyment.
He stood beside Wen Yuxiao, patiently and carefully instructing her on how to do each step, how much seasoning to use, how much force to use to cut the vegetables quickly and neatly, and if she was really afraid of oil splashing when putting the food into the wok, she could wear gloves.
Under his guidance, Wen Yuxiao actually made a plate of fried eggs that was golden in color and smelled crispy.
Even though it was the simplest dish, she was so nervous that she was sweating profusely.
An Xiaoya, who was sitting nearby and fanning herself, stood up, picked up her chopsticks first and took a bite. After tasting it, she nodded, indicating that she had passed her test.
Wen Yuxiao took a bite herself and almost cried: Although the taste was mediocre, it was not easy, really not easy, to be beaten by the silver-haired king insect in the off-campus apartment who looked like a princess and had never done any housework, but was actually able to make countless delicious dishes!
After all, it’s something I made myself, so it’s good no matter what.
She didn't forget the boy standing by and applauding her. This was her new master! Handing over a pair of clean chopsticks, she diligently served the fried egg to the other person.
Under her expectant gaze, the boy also took a small piece and put it in his mouth, praising her: "You did a great job."
The terminal, who had disguised himself as a small robot to secretly watch, was in tears and was about to jump up in grievance to switch his mode to become a combat robot: Damn it! I also want to taste the dishes made by His Highness!
The three of them formed a friendship at the speed of light. Wen Yuxiao even became his apprentice on the spot and fried a dish of vegetables under his guidance. She was so excited that she almost knelt down and kowtowed to show her respect.
You can teach yourself, a kitchen killer, to be like this. Seriously, go out and teach a class. I’ll kneel down and listen!
The boy has a very elegant name, Yue Qiaoqing, and he is just as his name suggests, a gentle and polite boy. He is not tall, about 1.7 meters, like a little white rabbit eating grass, and does not look aggressive at all.
An Xiaoya quickly treated everyone as sisters, and they talked arm in arm, chattering about the susceptible period that Wen Yuxiao couldn't understand, "How is your alpha..." and a bunch of other things.
An Xiaoya, who was chatting happily, noticed her roommate's strange gaze and remembered that he was an outsider. She quickly explained, "What are you thinking? Xiaoyue is also an omega. What's so strange about us being close?"
Male… omega… Wen Yuxiao’s expression cracked.
