Chapter 45 I'll do bad things with you
After three days of travel, the fleet finally arrived at a city in the outer area of the central star.
When arriving in this area, the fleet needs to dock and wait for the highest-ranking person on the central star to give the order before it can continue to enter the range of the central star.
The waiting time is generally one to three days.
They had been delayed on Porter Star for two days and on the road for another three days. There were only two days left before the rematch of the Brave Fighting Competition would resume.
Bai told Nan Qi that after entering the central star, according to past practice, the Insect King Hoover Walker would hold a banquet to reward the three armies within half a month after the army returned.
They were going to the palace to attend a banquet, and if it conflicted with the rematch time, he could coordinate it.
Nan Qi shook his head and told Bai that he would win consecutive games before the banquet to enter the final semi-finals. If time was insufficient, he would ask Bai to coordinate.
When he said this, Nan Qi smiled happily: "Bai, do you know why I originally participated in the Brave Fighting Tournament?"
Bai: "Bonus? You said you were short of money."
"Yes, besides that, I also want to protect my small braised food business after I become famous." Nan Qi looked at Bai with a smile. "I didn't expect my luck to be so good. I found a partner in the game, and now I'm traveling with you in real life."
"I am now enjoying the shade under a big tree."
Bai Bei's expression relaxed considerably at Nan Qi's relaxed tone. He hummed, "I'll give you some shade."
"Okay, then I won't be polite. Let's not talk about this for now. How are you feeling today?"
Nan Qi leaned closer to Bai, looking at the ice-blue dots that occasionally flashed in his originally dark eyes, like the brilliant stars in the eternal night sky, and raised his eyebrows:
"Looks like there's progress. He's truly a rare talent in the empire. He's improved a lot in just one day."
Bai lowered his eyes, hiding the color of his eyes that was a little out of control due to the initial concentration of his mental power: "Well, I feel good now, but I can't control the color of my eyes."
"Normal." Nan Qi put his hands behind his back and leaned forward to look carefully into Bai's eyes. "This is a sign of your spiritual power being condensed. From now on, in addition to continuing to condense your spiritual power, you will also need to learn how to control a more refined spiritual power."
"It's like if your strength suddenly increases, but if you can't control it, it will destroy your home. But if your strength increases, it will only destroy your home. If your mental power increases but you can't control it, it will destroy your spiritual sea. This is also one of the reasons why your mental power is rioting."
Nan Qi narrowed his eyes: "You don't know how to control it, the male insects' guidance is to help you control it."
Bai nodded: "I will. I will try my best to control the abnormal eye color before the banquet."
Nan Qi didn't ask Bai why he was so obsessed with controlling the color of his eye pupils. Everyone has secrets.
Bai didn't say anything, and he didn't ask either. He just took out a small box from his arms and placed it in Bai's palm: "It's okay if you can't control it. This thing is for you. It should be useful to you."
When Bai opened it, he found it was a pair of colored contact lenses.
Myopia no longer exists in this era, but the pursuit of beauty has allowed this ancient but very effective method of changing pupil color to be passed down.
With the development of technology, today's cosmetic contact lenses no longer cause any harm to the eyes, and they also have the function of moisturizing the eyes.
Bai had used it when he was young and couldn't control the color of his eye pupils, but he hadn't used it in nearly 40 years since he was able to control it, and he actually forgot that there was such a shortcut.
"It's good to improve yourself, but you also have to learn to make good use of external things," Nan Qi said with a smile, "there will be unexpected results."
"I've got that in mind." Bai put away the contact lenses. "I'll make good use of them."
"That's right. I was just taking a stroll today, and it's so bustling here. This is just the outer periphery, so you can imagine how bustling the central planet is."
After the fleet docked, Nan Qi took the Arnold brothers out shopping.
This is not a mining planet where the residents are of low level. Afraid that Nan Qi would be bullied by insects when he first arrived here, Bai Rangjun female accompanied Nan Qi and the others for a walk for half a day before returning.
After Nan Qi came back, Bai didn't see what Nan Qi was holding in his hand, and thought that he didn't buy anything because he lacked money. He also told Nan Qi that their accounts had been linked together and Nan Qi could buy whatever he wanted.
Nan Qi said that he had already bought what he wanted, and he would not be polite to him if he was short of money.
Unexpectedly, the thing he wanted to buy was also what he needed. Nan Qi had already seen his problem and quietly helped him solve it.
He hadn't felt this kind of meticulous care for a long time.
It’s not that Mellon and the others don’t care about him. On the contrary, they care about him very much and are even willing to give their lives for him.
It's just that he has been in the position of protector for a long time, protecting the country, the people, and his friends. Because of his strength, Mellon and others will ignore some minor issues.
Nan Qi wouldn't, he could see through his embarrassment, silently solve his problem and enlighten him.
Whether it was the respect after the accidental union; or telling Mellon and the others the secret that he had never known how to say in the room where they were exploring the secret of the colorful stones; and then there was her subsequent persuasion and teaching of the spirit body condensation method, and the coordination of the game time without his help, as well as the colored contact lenses.
Nan Qi was like a perfect guide, leading him firmly forward on the foggy road where the future lay unknown, and silently soothing their wounded hearts.
Not only him, but also Mellon, Page, Pope, the Arnold brothers... all the insects that came into contact with Nan Qi were cured silently by Nan Qi bit by bit.
They had only known each other for a few days, but Nan Qi had already solved so many problems for him. It was worthy of what Mellon said - they had found a treasure.
It is still a rare treasure.
But Bai felt that Nan Qi was a white dwarf that could dispel all the haze and allow all the insects shrouded in darkness to see the light.
Listening to Nan Qi telling him in detail about what he saw and heard on the street, Bai became more determined not to let Nan Qi go.
He had a gentle expression and from time to time explained to Nan Qi some of the experiences on the Central Star and some of the complicated power relationships.
Finally, he said, "Although I am a female insect, I am also an imperial general. They dare not do anything to me openly, so you don't have to be polite to them."
After a moment's thought, he added, "Although you are the empire's only SSS-rank male insect, those deeply rooted and powerful factions may have other resources. Without your foundation, their followers will likely find all sorts of excuses to disturb you. If you're unhappy, just beat them up."
Nan Qi: "That's great, I like this way of solving problems the most."
"Like when you beat up Mellon and the others?"
"That's still different. They are your friends. I won't kill them."
Bai understood. It seemed that the ability of the SSS-level male insect was not just as simple as condensing the spiritual body, just like the tail in the martial arts field that seemed to break the void and pull Melon away.
The two insects understood each other tacitly and smiled at each other.
The Insect Emperor did not let Bai and his men wait too long in the outer area of the Central Star. The next day, he sent someone to issue an order, letting the army enter the Central Star and hold a night banquet in the palace ten days later. All officers above the colonel level stationed in the Central Star could participate.
The Ministry of Finance allocated funds for the remaining troops to hold a celebration banquet at the military headquarters, where the Insect Emperor and the people enjoyed themselves together.
Bai was specially allowed to rest for three days before returning to the palace to report on his work, and was also rewarded with many precious jewels.
This was a disguised way of comforting Bai for the "injustice" he suffered during his trip to Porter. It not only established the impression of caring for important officials in front of the public, but also warned Bai not to dream of attacking the royal family for something without evidence.
"Bah!" Mellon wanted to throw Xingnao to the ground. "He's really calculating. He didn't even bother to give you something useful to comfort you. Do we need these crappy jewels?"
"Hey, you can't say that. Why not take it if it's given to you for free? Even if it can be converted into money, it's good." Nan Qi rolled his eyes. "By the way, are these jewels hidden in the Insect King's private vault? What else do you think is in his private vault?"
Mellon took a step back reflexively, and that cold feeling on his back came back.
He swallowed and said, "You, you are planning something bad. I always feel that you have bad intentions."
"I'm just curious, what are you afraid of?" Nan Qi narrowed his eyes, "Did you do something to offend me?"
"No, no." Mellon shook his head like a rattle, afraid that he would get beaten if he was too late.
In the past two days, Nan Qi beat them up on time, morning, noon and night, just like eating, saying that it was to help them understand the method of condensing their spiritual body.
But in Mellon's opinion, Nan Qi had the intention of guiding them, but his intention of taking revenge on them through guidance was even stronger.
It was obvious that the three of them were beaten together, but he and Pu Bo were beaten worse. Peggy was fine and just jumped around as she watched the two of them grimacing in pain.
Peggy belongs to the lower level of S-class, not to mention Pu Bo, the lazy guy, whose physique is two levels lower than his.
Therefore, Peggy was beaten less severely, which was definitely because Nan Qi showed mercy.
He had been at odds with Nan Qi before. Pu Bo and Nan Qi were at loggerheads over the method of refining the spiritual body, and Nan Qi just disliked the two of them.
Now Nan Qi suddenly became concerned about the Insect King's private treasury. He would never believe that Nan Qi was just curious. He must have had something bad in mind.
"Anyway, just give up your idea. That place is monitored by the main brain." Mellon glared at Nan Qi, "If you don't want to be wanted, then stay put."
Nan Qi looked innocent: "I really didn't mean to do anything, why don't you believe me?"
"Stop, stop." Mellon took another step back. "You only know how to scare me, and you don't even care about your own master."
Bai, who was caught in the crossfire, took a step back without any loyalty. "You also said that he is my lord. Imperial law stipulates that whatever the lord says is correct."
Melon looked at Bai in disbelief: "Now you're telling me about the laws of the empire. You really value women over friends!"
Bai looked at Nan Qi's pretty face, then looked at Meilong's fresh eye makeup with a light blue hue, and nodded decisively: "Nan Qi is prettier than you."
Mellon: “…”
He was so angry that he never wanted to talk to this couple again.
Mellon left angrily, but Bai continued Mellon's topic: "Nan Qi, don't think about doing anything to the Insect Emperor's private vault."
"Mellon wasn't exaggerating. The security system of the Insect Emperor's private vault is directly controlled by the Mastermind. I know you're extraordinary, but you can't escape the Mastermind's surveillance. If you're discovered, the entire guard team will be dispatched, and your image will be broadcast throughout the empire."
"I know." Nan Qi's eyes flashed with a faint green color, "But what if they can't see my face? The Insect King's private vault should have a lot of treasures, such as the seven-colored stone."
"You want to be at the party—"
Bai knew what Nan Qi wanted to do. He wanted to use the little black cat's spirit body that could leave the spiritual sea to explore the Insect King's private vault.
Nan Qi has not fully recovered yet, so the spirit kitten cannot be too far away from Nan Qi's real body, but if the kitten is at the banquet, it is still possible for him to move quietly.
Nan Qi's spirit body seems to have the ability to distort space. If it is true, Nan Qi does not need to go through the private vault door to enter the private vault, and he can retreat in time even if the main brain does not discover it.
Even if the image of the kitten spreads throughout the empire, the Insect Emperor won't be able to track them down because he knows they kept it a secret.
Logically, he should have agreed happily, as Nan Qi wanted to find the seven-colored stone for him, but he still refused.
Bai: "That won't work either. Not to mention that you haven't fully recovered yet. Even if you did, if your spirit form is exposed in the future, or if something goes wrong with the bugs we know about, you'd be in danger."
"So, I need you to help me." Nan Qi pointed at Bai's eyes.
"You mean my ability to change eye color can help you?" Bai's eyes widened. He couldn't believe that the little trick he had developed back then could be so useful.
Nan Qi nodded affirmatively: "As long as I can master your method within ten days, it will be worth the risk for us to try it at the palace banquet."
"How about it, do you want to go on an adventure with me?"
Nan Qi stretched out his hand to Bai. Bai looked into Nan Qi's eyes without blinking, then put his hand on Nan Qi's hand and held it tightly.
"I'll accompany you!"
