Chapter 118 Chapter 118
Since we can't fight, we can only do something serious.
Garland and Hector went to the rest area.
Everyone was in the rest area. When they saw the two people walking side by side, the Crown Prince was pleased, while Ruan Shiqing looked a little embarrassed. Only the little dragon cub, who was worried about Garland's father being bullied, was filled with righteous indignation. He rushed over and hugged Garland's legs, baring his little fangs at Hector: "Galan's father, did Hector bully you?"
Garland coughed lightly, glanced at Hector with an expression that showed he was not going to change even if a landslide happened in front of him, and said, "He dares not."
The little dragon was skeptical and wanted to say something else, but Hector picked him up and held him in his arms, and changed the subject abruptly: "What are you going to do with those two bugs?"
The little dragon cub, who was pressed in his arms and had difficulty breathing, struggled hard for a while before his head popped out from his arm and glared at him angrily.
However, he did not continue to ask about the fight, and his attention was diverted to the Zerg.
"They are now on the rescue army's airship, and there are people escorting them to Sikkim." Ruan Shiqing said: "Gallan has already said hello to the rescue army before leaving. They will cooperate and relax their defense. We will follow behind and see their next move."
Sally and Jason left at about the same time as them, but Sally and Jason went to Sikkim, while they apparently returned to B3024, but actually turned on the stealth mode and secretly turned around and followed behind.
"If they want to take action, it should be in this star field." Rong Heng called up the star map and pointed at an empty star field - there happened to be a migration route near this star field.
Sally now has ten insect eggs in her stomach, so she must be anxious to leave. If these ten insect eggs are important enough, there might be some insect tribes coming to pick them up, and they can take this opportunity to capture a few more anthropomorphic insect tribes and get to know the insect tribe better.
However, this star field is still some distance away from the Driftwood Star, and it will take several hours to travel there.
After everyone reached an agreement, they dispersed for the time being.
Garland and Hector had their own things to talk about, so they naturally went back to their rooms. Before leaving, Hector was afraid that he would be disturbed by the ignorant kids again, so he paid a lot of money to ask Mellaire to take all the idle kids to the combat training room for training.
This way, only Rong Heng, Ruan Shiqing, and the little robot 09 were left in the rest area.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince glared at the small golden robot with narrowed eyes and winked at him.
09 stared at him blankly for a moment, and the red dot on the screen stopped flashing. I couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"
He even asked me what was wrong. Of course he was disturbing my love life.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince glared at him again, secretly cursing the robot for being so tactless.
With a low hum of dissatisfaction, Rong Heng couldn't get rid of the little robot, so he could only pretend that he didn't exist. He lowered his head and rummaged through the computer, turning to the latest news.
The most talked-about news on the holographic network at the moment is the fact that the Driftwood Planet has been quietly invaded by the Zerg.
As expected, the news about the Drifting Wood Planet caused panic among the people. And great panic is often accompanied by anger.
The Driftwood incident was undoubtedly a replay of the Lenka incident, only this time it was even more shocking because Driftwood had been lost for a week without anyone noticing anything unusual. If the passenger spaceship had not been attacked by Zerg, the Imperial government would not have known when this tragedy would have happened.
And those terrible Zerg are likely to attack the next planet after attacking Driftwood.
The Zerg, which was previously kept out of the front lines, now began to appear frequently in the Imperial Star Territory, wreaking havoc everywhere. However, the Imperial government and military did nothing, not even an explanation.
Angry citizens questioned the capabilities of the government and the military on the holographic network, demanding a reasonable explanation and a commitment to expel the Zerg.
However, the latest news released by the ruling government was about the war with the planet Sjarlan.
Looking at the news with shocking headlines, Rong Heng randomly picked one and pretended to share it. He naturally walked to Ruan Shiqing's side and sat down, sharing the virtual screen of his intelligent computer. He said in a mocking tone: "At this critical moment, the emperor is still in the mood to prepare a banquet for his father-in-law's birthday."
"Holding a banquet at this time?" Ruan Shiqing frowned and leaned over slightly to read the news carefully.
When Rong Heng moved his position, he had selfish motives and deliberately moved very close to him, with only a fist's distance between them. Now that Ruan Shiqing leaned over, the fist's distance was gone, and their thighs were almost touching, with only a thin piece of cloth separating their warm skin.
Ruan Shiqing was still looking at the news interface carefully.
The warm body temperatures were transmitted and blended with each other. Rong Heng blinked uncomfortably and wanted to move, but held back.
The depression that had arisen from seeing the news just dissipated, and was replaced by a secret joy.
He glanced at Ruan Shiqing with the corner of his eye, and seeing that the other party was focused, he couldn't help but lean closer. At this time, the two of them were shoulder to shoulder, cheek to cheek, in a very intimate and ambiguous posture, so close that he could even see the soft hair on the other's cheek.
His Royal Highness's heart was beating fast and anxious.
The distance was so close that it seemed as if he could easily pull the person into his arms as long as he raised his hand.
Once this thought came to his mind, he could not suppress it no matter what he did. It was like boiling water boiling in his heart, making his mouth dry.
Rong Heng's expression changed several times, and he was struggling with himself.
On the one hand, she wanted to hold her lover in her arms without caring about anything; on the other hand, she kept warning him, admonishing him not to be so rash.
The arm resting on the sofa back was raised and lowered, lowered and raised again, but no actual action was taken.
When he was about to put down his raised arm again, Ruan Shiqing had just finished reading the news. He naturally leaned back, saying "Your Majesty's approach is really putting the cart before the horse", but happened to lean on Rong Heng's arm, which he had not had time to retract.
The body's subconscious reaction is often faster than the brain. Rong Heng's subordinates consciously supported his shoulders, as if he was really holding the person in his arms.
But then Rong Heng was startled, looked at him sideways, and felt as if he had escaped from his shell.
Ruan Shiqing didn't react that much, it was as if he just pressed the other person's arm accidentally. He sat up straight with a natural expression and gave him an apologetic smile.
Rong Heng unnaturally withdrew his arm and confirmed that he didn't see anything. He was slightly relieved, but also a little disappointed. He could only pretend to be calm and said, "It's not the first time he has done this."
In his heart, he cursed Hector.
It was all because of that stupid dragon provoking him, otherwise he wouldn't have suddenly become so eager and almost leaked the bait.
