Qin Lang and Lin Zishu said that they wanted to rush to the border where they were, but it was not possible to get there in a short time. The territory of the Zerg Clan was so vast. The main star was in the center of their star field, and their planet was only a day and a half away from the main star. It would take at least a month to rush to the border from there.
This is because the Maro galaxy had an unfriendly conflict with its neighbors a few hundred years ago, which lasted for hundreds of years. In order to fight the war, a long-distance wormhole was opened within the territory to reach the vicinity of that star field, thus saving so much time. If there was no wormhole... it would probably take decades on the spaceship. This still takes advantage of some short-distance wormholes.
This time, Qin Fei and Xi Yuan did not plan to fly over in a low profile. After they hung up the phone, they immediately contacted the Male Insect Protection Association and the military to report the news of Qin Fei's safe return.
You must visit the Male Insect Protection Association. Although there is an organization of the Male Insect Protection Association at the border, there are only some small fry there.
As for the military, they were in the right. Although they sent more than 50 guards for protection, within their protection range, in the inner area of the Zerg territory, a level nine male Zerg was openly attacked by interstellar pirates on his honeymoon. This was a naked slap in the face, a loud slap in the face. The military spent a lot of effort to maintain its prestige.
Only five of the more than 50 female insects survived, three of which were seriously injured and have not yet fully recovered, or have some sequelae even if they have recovered. Given the strong vitality of the Zerg, this is enough to prove how serious the injuries were.
Now they have sent a fleet to accompany Qin Lang and his team.
A fleet, this is a huge undertaking, the military is willing to make up for it. I don’t know what Qin Lang said to the military’s contact, but in the end Qin Lang turned off the communication with a smile.
Qin Fei and Xi Yuan also asked about the surviving female insect and many things that happened afterwards. Qin Zhe explained them one by one and sent them a few links. They were all certified authoritative information published on StarNet at the time of the incident, and a lot of things could be revealed from them.
"Still haven't caught the bug behind the scenes?" Xi Yuan frowned, feeling a little dissatisfied.
Even if the interstellar pirates are suppressed to the point of almost disappearing, what does it matter? If we don't catch their source, won't they appear again after this storm passes and continue to show off their power? This is only a temporary solution and does not address the root cause.
"Do you still remember the warships that attacked you?" Qin Zhe started to ask, and Xi Yuan seemed to be thinking about it. The high-end warships that the military should have absolute control over are now in the hands of interstellar pirates, and they are not the kind that have exceeded their service life. Now the pirate leader has not been caught yet, and they are all small minions... ... Traitors? !
Xi Yuan pursed his lips and his eyes became deeper.
"I didn't expect..."
"Yeah, I didn't expect it. Who could have thought of it?" Qin Zhe smiled bitterly.
"Are the five of them still under the military's jurisdiction?" Xi Yuan suddenly changed the subject.
"No, they have been expelled from the military. They failed in their duty. They did not detect the pirates' actions in advance, nor did they protect you when the incident happened." Qin Zhe said in a deep voice. Even though he knew that they did try their best, so what? That was their duty, but they did not fulfill it.
"They have done their best. It's because the interstellar pirates are too strong and have made preparations in advance." He had already decided in his heart that he would pay them a sum of money as a thank you, and the families of the 40 or so female insects that had been sacrificed would also receive a sum of money. Thank them for trying their best to protect them, and not backing down even though they knew it was at the cost of their own lives.
"Yes, we should." Qin Fei agreed. He still remembered that when they left the spaceship and fled in all directions, they all dressed up as them to distract the pirates. Everyone knew that they were very dangerous. Qin Fei was their target, and they would not hurt him. Xi Yuan and the other female insects would definitely not show mercy.
"Although the military has expelled them from the army, they will still receive a subsidy. I will not stop you if you have this intention."
They exchanged information during this period in Qin Zhe's house. Unexpectedly, when they went to the infirmary for examination, their profiles were photographed by the bug. He then uploaded the photo to StarNet with a caption: Encountered by chance! Who do you think he looks like?
At first, there were only a few clicks, and most of them were just a passing glance without a close look, until a female insect pointed out: Do these two people look like the missing Lord Qin Fei and his partner, Major General Xi Yuan? The more you look, the more they look alike.
A single stone can cause a thousand ripples. This sentence was seen by others, and many people clicked on it to see it. The more they looked at it, the more it resembled the person. This picture was not a frontal view, but a side view, and because of the angle, only half of the face was revealed.
Half of Xi Yuan's face was captured, and he was looking at the doctor and saying something. In this era, there is no such thing as insufficient clarity. After clicking on it and comparing it with the picture of Major General Xi Yuan, it is not alike at all. This is Major General Xi Yuan!
Major General Xi Yuan is back. The person next to him whose face was not captured in the photo, who was holding his hand and was so close to him, and whose back view and posture looked very much like Qin Fei, who else could it be but him?
Many experts on the Star Network have carefully looked at the pictures and found no trace of artificial modification!
During the two or three years that Qin Feihe disappeared, there were other seemingly plausible news, but each time they were proven to be false after being paid attention to and carefully scrutinized by a large number of people.
This incident caused a stir on Star Network, and many people suspected that this was another show, or that the face of Xi Yuan in the photo was someone else's makeup, and then someone with a body shape like Qin Fei was found.
Once this question was spread, it attracted more attention from insects. All the female insects who noticed it on Starnet were like chicken blood, and they kept asking questions under the dynamics of the female insect who posted the picture at the beginning. Some even sent him private messages. They asked him if he really took the picture accidentally, or if he deliberately faked it to attract the insects' attention?
The female insect didn't mean to do it. She just passed by and saw the two of them. She took a picture on impulse. Then she thought they looked familiar and posted it on the Star Network. Who knew that after being told that by people on the Star Network, he received countless messages in his private messages, some asking questions, and some scolding him for attracting attention. He closed the private messages and took a closer look. Only then did he realize that they really looked like Lord Qin Fei and Major General Xi Yuan. Could they really be them? But the star system they were attacked in was so far away from here. How could they be here?
Did he take the wrong photo? But forget about those who questioned him, didn't his family know about it? He really just took the photo casually! So if it wasn't true, then someone deliberately did this to confuse people. This person must be up to something and must be caught. He immediately ran to the infirmary and looked around at the door.
At this time, Qin Fei and Xi Yuan had been taken back to Qin Zhe's residence. He only saw the excited doctor inside, so he asked, "Doctor, who are the two who just came in?"
The doctor, immersed in all the data, blurted out subconsciously: "Qin Fei and Xi Yuan."
Female insect: !!! [○'Д○] Doctor, are you serious?
"So where are they now?"
"He went back to his eldest brother's place, what's the matter?" the doctor answered, then turned around and looked at him in confusion.
"Really? Doctor Qin Fei and Major General Xi Yuan have returned safely?!" Are you really not kidding me?
"Yes, they just came back. Lieutenant General Qin Zhe was worried, so he brought them here for a physical examination."
The doctor said it. After all, Qin Zhe and his team didn't mean to hide this news. This is good news, right? Why not? Could it be that in this war fortress with a large number of military females stationed, there is still someone who dares to have bad ideas? This is a military stronghold that is always defending against unfriendly neighbors next door. Even if the Naga next door suddenly attacks, they can stop it!
There is really nothing that cannot be said.
But it was not good for him to take a picture of other insects privately and post it on StarNet, so he logged into his own account, returned to StarNet, deleted the picture, and posted a statement.
It is really Lord Qin Fei and Major General Xi Yuan who have returned. Please show up! Please give us some advice! Please let us know that they are safe!
As a result, the credibility instantly increased a lot, and more people spread the news online. Some well-informed people have already contacted Qin Zhe and asked him if it was true and whether his brother was really found.
Qin Zhe replied yes and hung up the call. "When you went missing, there was a lot of commotion on StarNet, and many bugs were concerned about you. Now that you're back, you should talk about it on StarNet."
Qin Fei nodded. This was as it should be. There were only so many male insects that were tested at level nine in the insect tribe. Each of them was watched by countless insects. He had just come of age and held a ceremony, so even more attention was focused on him. And now that he was attacked and disappeared, even those who had not paid attention to him before would start to pay attention.
He simply posted a message without any pictures: Xi Yuan and I are back, thank you all for your concern, and I want to let you know that we are safe.
#Lord Qin Fei and Major General Xi Yuan returned safely! #
#Great news! Qin Fei has shown up! #
…
Countless Zerg commented on Qin Fei's status, many asked questions, and many reported good news, wishing him all the best after overcoming this disaster. It was very heartwarming.
Qin Fei smiled as he read the comments below. At this moment, his computer rang: "Good to be back. Let's make an appointment to chat when we have a chance." - Mu Ying. This was like a start. His computer rang one after another, including his two younger brothers, roommates Aino, Lin Yu, and other teachers and classmates...
Xi Yuan also posted a status: I'm back, and I'll let you know the good news after some time.
Good news?
Should we announce the pregnancy? Qin Zhe was casual, and he didn't have any opinions. Generally speaking, it was very good news for female insects to be pregnant, and they would be happy to announce their good news in public. Everyone also liked to see this kind of news, and wanted to take advantage of the good news. Now it was double happiness.
"Where's the second brother?"
"He went to the base for a three-month internship, a closed-door training without internet access."
No wonder we can't contact him.
