“…Nothing.”

Lan Xia stood up straight, silently exerted a little force with his right hand, and with a flash of mental power, the syringe turned into moonlight-like powder, which slowly fell from his fingers to the ground.

"I came out to get some fresh air."

His right hand naturally fell by his side. Jin Daiqiao looked at it again and it was completely clean, as if the cold light she had seen on the teacher's fingertips just now was just an illusion.

Jin Daiqi looked hesitant: "I just saw..."

"Um?"

Lan Xia straightened her sleeves. The silver cufflinks reflected a cold light under the moonlight. She raised her eyes and asked softly, "What's wrong?"

"……It's OK."

She blinked, unable to put her finger on what was wrong, and shook her head, "My brother saw that you didn't have anything to eat, so he asked me to come over and bring you something."

As she spoke, she handed the box over to me.

The iron box is ordinary and clean, but the cakes inside are extraordinary, delicate and soft, with a sweet and fragrant smell.

"I bought these at a famous snack shop in Silicon Blue City. They're all for the teacher." Jin Daiqi smiled and came over to whisper, "Does the teacher hide because he doesn't like barbecue?"

Lan Xia was stunned for a moment, then smiled and nodded.

He does have a sweet tooth.

"Thank you, Decorte."

"It's no big deal. It turns out the teacher is also picky about food." The little girl looked determined to keep the secret and walked away with a smile, her braided hair swaying behind her in an arc of happiness.

dessert……

Lan Xia lowered his head, and after a moment, he couldn't help but poke the snack with his fingertips. Rationally speaking, he couldn't eat now. Besides, he just had a nutrient injection, so he didn't need to eat.

Three seconds later.

Lan Xia decisively picked up the smallest piece inside——

Dessert crumbs on the side.

He just ate a little.

…

Silicon Blue City Central Base.

military infirmary.

The air was filled with the faint smell of medicine and blood.

The head of the base trembled as he pushed open the door and walked in, personally placing the apology documents on the table.

There was no sign of joy or anger in the admiral's eyes. His military uniform was draped over his shoulders and his bloodstained shirt had been changed. Apart from the slightly pale color of his lips, there was no sign of weakness at all.

The person in charge only took a glance and quickly lowered his head, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead: "I failed to supervise properly, please punish me!"

In his heart, he hated the young master Su Tu who was rescued! And the evildoer who rescued him! He actually let the general get hurt in his Silicon Blue City.

When he heard the news, the admiral had already come in, supported by his adjutant, with blood all over his chest and half of his shoulder.

The brim of the admiral's hat was pulled down low, and he was wearing a mask, so he couldn't see the admiral's face clearly. But the look in the eyes of the adjutant beside him was so cold that his legs went weak and he almost fell to his knees.

The injured one is Elan Snow, the synonym of federal military power!

People like him who are in charge of remote areas are just insignificant officials, and you may not see them once in your lifetime.

If the news that the admiral was shot here gets out, not only his immediate superior, but even His Majesty Roche will not let him go.

The person in charge became more and more frightened, and since Ellansno hadn't said a word, he suddenly knelt down. The sound was so solid that it made people's teeth ache.

Gong Du came back to his senses, was silent for a moment, and said to Shi Hai: "Sorry, I was distracted just now. Do you have a screen recording? Play it back for me."

Two or three seconds later.

Xiao Guangtuan said awkwardly: "...I was distracted too."

Gong Du expressed his understanding: "The barbecue smells so good."

Little Light Group: “Hey.”

The main body and the vest have the same feelings and respond to each other.

The scene of Lan Xia grilling on the bonfire was restored to Gong Du's mind like a holographic projection, and Xiao Guangtuan was forced to watch a late-night food stall show.

After a few jokes, Gong Du cheered up, looked at the person in charge who was almost unable to kneel down, waved to the soldiers next to him, and told them to stay.

"Teach him what he can and cannot say."

The soldier replied, “Yes.”

They picked up the person in charge from the ground. He was terrified and started crying and howling. He was soon dragged out and fell silent.

Kang Quan: "Admiral, everything has been arranged here. The news of your injury will not spread."

The First Legion guards the border of the northwest star region. If the news of the admiral being injured in Silicon Blue City were to spread, who knows how many assassinations it would attract.

Gong Du hummed and stood up: "Go back to the base."

The warship left Silicon Blue City on time a few minutes later.

Although the news of the Admiral's injury had to be completely blocked, it did not need to be kept secret from the military doctor who was treating the Admiral at the First Army Base.

The S-level evolver of psychic power is known as a "living weapon".

However, no matter how powerful a "living weapon" is, it is still a normal flesh and blood body. It will get sick and die, and the injuries it suffers will not heal out of thin air.

Kane is Admiral Ellansno's personal military doctor in the First Legion. He has been treating the admiral's wounds since he was fourteen years old.

At that time, the evidence of the Federation was in disarray, and the anti-Federation organization revolted because of the destruction of the Temple of Mercy by fire. However, Emperor Roche, as if jokingly, awarded a 14-year-old boy a general's order.

No one believed that a teenager, who could even be called a child, could turn the tide until the admiral won a great victory in the first battle, his uniform stained with blood, he stepped on the wreckage of a battleship, and planted the flag of the Federation on the head of the opposing leader.

From then on, the news that Elansno was an S-class psychic evolver spread like wildfire. He won battle after battle and quickly reversed the Federation's disadvantage with ruthless means. Those purple eyes became the nightmare of countless people.

After Kane treated Ellan Snow's gunshot wound, he left his office with a medical kit. He had only taken a few steps when he met Kang Dog who had returned from handling official business.

Kang Dog stopped and asked, "Has the Admiral's injury improved?"

Kane answered truthfully: "The bullet was crudely made. When it passed through the shoulder, a slight explosion occurred in the admiral's bones and meridians. The source iron slag radiation residue remained. The admiral will have a persistent high fever, loss of appetite, and weakness in the next two days. Be careful not to overwork and keep your mood stable."

"Okay, I understand."

Seeing that Kang Quan had listened carefully, Kane felt relieved. When he had just caught the admiral's eye, he had also given him some instructions, but the admiral looked absent-minded, clearly not having listened.

It would be much better if Kang Dog was watching over it.

When Kang Quan entered Elansno's office with the documents in his arms, he looked around but didn't see anyone. He was slightly stunned: "Admiral?"

…

The sound of water running in the bathroom stopped.

The layout here is a unified standard in the military.

The only difference is that there is no mirror in front of the sink in Ellan Snow's room.

The mask, which had never been taken off in public, was placed on the table.

There were water droplets on Elansno's face, and the water stains flowed silently down his jawline. His upper body was naked, and a thick bandage was wrapped around his left shoulder, extending down and tied into a neat knot between his waist and abdomen. His long silver hair covered most of the scars of varying sizes on his back.

This was the body of an adult man, with extremely beautiful muscle textures and mottled scars that carried the glory of blood and gunpowder, as well as the curses and spitting of countless people.

He stood in front of the sink. The clean gray iron wall in front of him reflected his blurry outline, but his facial features could not be seen clearly.

Those purple eyes and the mask that he never took off in front of outsiders seemed to have become the symbol of this federal admiral. No one knew what the face under the mask looked like.

Including himself.

There was a dull pain on his shoulder, and Elansno thought again of the man who had snatched the ice keeper from him.

The light golden eyes were covered with a layer of mist, a very special color.

The moment they were so close, the feeling was... a little painful, but not the kind of pain that a bullet would pierce through the shoulder.

He couldn't tell.

Elansno stretched out his hand towards his own shadow on the cold wall in front of him, but stopped abruptly a second before touching the outline of his own face.

His breathing suddenly became rapid and his fingers began to tremble. After a stalemate of two or three seconds, he suddenly withdrew his fingertips and pressed them against his throbbing temple.

a long time.

Elansno put on his military uniform and splashed his forehead and eyes with cold water. After finishing his routine, he put on a mask to cover his abnormally pale face.

The slight confusion in those purple eyes just now was like an illusion of exploring flowers in the fog.

…

Gong Du opened the door and said to Kang Quan who had been waiting for a while, "Is everything done?"

Kang Dog paused and said, "Well, we have already followed your instructions to hunt him down. Class A arrest warrant."

The wanted order only arrested people without harming them. Compared with the admiral's previous methods, it could be said to be quite mild, not to mention that the people being hunted this time were the two people who had injured the admiral and the young master of Su Tu.

"knew."

All the documents he brought were placed on the table. As an adjutant, he had no authority to approve any of them. Gong Du opened them one by one.

Kang Quan carefully observed the Admiral's expression, his eyes fell on his slightly pale lips, and he remembered what Dr. Kane had said, and reminded him: "Admiral, you should rest more these days."

“That’s not necessary.”

Gong Du took a sip of the coffee at hand, and the bitter taste spread on the tip of his tongue.

Suddenly, he paused, tapped the rim of the cup with his fingertips, raised his eyes and said to Kang Quan without warning: "Today's lunch will be barbecue."

Kang Dog:?

Without thinking, he said, "No! Your stomach is not well yet."

Gong Du: "It doesn't hurt anymore."

"You are injured. Do not eat any oily or greasy food."

"adjutant!"

Kang Quan remained calm: "You can stop taking meal replacement sugar and return to your normal diet, but you can't grill."

Gong Du: “…”

Stubborn.

The two of them were in a stalemate for a moment, and the light on Gong Du's wrist suddenly flashed. He raised his hand and took a look, his eyes slightly froze.

It is a message from Emperor Roshi.

Gong Du: Come on, examiner, let us applaud the big show that is about to be staged.

The little ball of light in the sea of ​​consciousness clapped for three seconds out of respect.

…

The moment he received the call, all the laxity in Ellansno's mind was put away.

He immediately stood up, saluted after the call was connected, and said respectfully, "Your Majesty."

Kang Quan had not expected that His Majesty Roche would suddenly send a message, and he quickly saluted behind Elansno.

Emperor Roche appeared in the void. He looked at Elansno for a moment, and a gentle smile appeared on his lips: "Elans, is the First Legion busy?"

Ellen Snow: "It's almost done."

"In that case, then hurry to the imperial capital. The administrative department has already sent countless edicts urging you to return. If you don't come back, they will suspect that you have ulterior motives." Emperor Luoshu's tone softened, and the smile on his lips deepened.

"Elans is always loyal to His Majesty!" The admiral knelt on one knee without hesitation. "The Administrative Office has always been against me. I thought they called me back this time to listen to their nonsense like before, but I didn't expect it was an order from His Majesty."

"Since it is your majesty's order, Elance will set out now."

Emperor Luoshi didn't say anything more, but just said: "Then come to the imperial capital as soon as possible."

"yes!"

After the communication was cut off, Elansno turned and walked out, saying in a deep voice: "Prepare the warships and go to the imperial capital—"

There was another sudden sharp pain in his head. The admiral's body temperature was higher than usual due to the inflammation of the wound. His dark purple pupils dilated for a moment, and he swayed his body slightly when he stood up.

"......!" Kang Dog reacted subconsciously and quickly supported him. He had been an adjutant for so many years, and his level of attentiveness was second only to Dr. Kane. He immediately reached out and touched Ellan Snow's forehead with the back of his hand.

hot.

Because the distance was closer, he could also smell a faint smell of blood.

Unfortunately, due to his poor physical condition, he had no awareness of this and just stood up again. Kang Quan could feel how tense the muscles on Ellansno's arms were under his palms.

One of the duties of an adjutant is to take good care of the admiral. Kang Quan said, "You are not suitable now..."

The sound stopped abruptly.

He met a pair of dark purple eyes that contained no emotion and were extremely cold.

Ellan Snow brushed away his handrails, his fingers already on the holster at his waist, and said in a cold and slow voice: "I said, prepare the warship, immediately."

He was as cold and stubborn as a machine carrying out orders, but there was an extremely unstable and violent look in his eyes. Ellansno suddenly became extremely unfamiliar.
