“Captain He Qixing… How could there be Zergs? Didn’t we already eradicate all the Zergs?”
He Qixing’s team members were extremely panicked, not because they couldn’t defeat the Zergs on the opposing side, but because of a fear of the unknown. Clearly, the Zergs they had long since eradicated had reappeared in this universe. So, was their hard-won peace about to be shattered again?
The energy shields protecting various planets had just been deactivated, and now they were being informed that the Zergs were once again on the rise. This was undoubtedly a significant blow to the Empire.
“The situation shouldn’t be that bad.”
He Qixing furrowed his brows slightly.
“They may not be newly spawned Zergs.”
“These Zergs may just be weapon remnants left behind by Chu Fengyuan.”
General Mo Xiao had mentioned to him that seven years ago, when they first discovered that Zergs could be controlled by the crystal, they also found many Zergs imprisoned in dungeons.
At that time, he had been thinking… Besides those Zergs, there might be other Zergs imprisoned elsewhere. Now, it was just proving his speculation. So, he didn’t panic.
“If that’s the case, then we can rest assured.”
The team members calmed down, and the battle became effortless. In fact, they were already familiar with the fighting patterns of Zergs. These dozen or so headless flies-like Zergs were not to be feared. They were swiftly dealt with, and no more Zergs appeared afterward. This was different from the previous encounters during the Zerg waves, where Zergs would signal to each other and swarm in groups.
“Gone? Just a dozen or so?”
The communications soldier responsible for communicating with the main fleet had a somewhat strange expression after the battle ended.
“What’s wrong? Are you unsatisfied with just a dozen or so? Do you want us to throw you into the Zerg nest for you to be happy?”
A colleague joked with him.
“No… I might have exaggerated the information I just sent to the main fleet a bit.”
He had reported the appearance of a group of Zergs.
But as for how many specifically were in that group, he hadn’t had time to count. His description of the situation just now had been accurate, but there might have been some ambiguity.
“It’s okay. Send an update immediately now, stating that we’ve resolved the trouble and letting the General know not to worry about us.”
“Yes, Captain He.”
He Qixing glanced at the direction where the Zerg corpses were scattered and then at the empty starry sky there. A thought flashed through his mind, and he turned to command a few team members.
“You guys stay here. The rest come with me.”
“Yes, Major He.”
He Qixing flew towards that area of the starry sky and disappeared into it.
The communications soldier left behind reconnected with the main fleet and explained the situation, and as expected, he was scolded severely. The young communications soldier shrugged his shoulders, trying to dodge the spit flying at him even though they were thousands of meters apart.
“Yes! It’s my mistake. I should have been more careful with my words.”
“Return to Jialin! Fifteen days in solitary confinement!” The military chief’s unique loud voice made people’s scalp numb.
“Yes, sir!”
The communications soldier saw that his angry superior had stopped scolding him and immediately reported the current situation.
“Major General said that the trouble on our end has been resolved. Please don’t worry General Nie.”
“Don’t worry? It’s too late for that. General Nie should already be almost there.”
Wha… What? General Nie Chuan is already on his way here?
Why so suddenly?!
Even if reinforcements were needed, the main commander shouldn’t be the one coming to reinforce them! The communications soldier was so shocked that his jaw nearly dropped.
“I will inform General Nie of the situation on your end. As for how to explain it to him, that’s up to you. Good luck.” The superior who had just been yelling suddenly saluted him, carrying a certain sense of respect for the dead.
He was done for.
Those four words were all that ran through the communications soldier’s mind.
“Stay optimistic. If they’re only putting you in solitary confinement, it means you’ll still be alive when you come out.” A colleague beside him heard everything and gave his shoulder a heavy pat.
Communications Soldier: “…”
Thank you, oh, he was really comforted.
Watching the sporadic mechas flying in, and then recalling the message from the holographic video just now, all the mechas left behind knew who had come and immediately went to greet them.
We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.
But the owner of that mecha did not stay among them.

“Mental riot?”
“Why… why can’t I contact Xingxing, why can’t I contact Xingxing.”
“Xingxing’s mecha isn’t here either…”
“Nie Chuan, calm down a bit, Xingxing isn’t that fragile.”
Nie Chuan covered his head, his eyes flickering with a golden light for a moment and then being suppressed again.
He reached out and pressed the emergency button.
He knew that his mental power had already exceeded the range he could control, so he had to take the opportunity while he still had his senses to shut down the mecha in mid-air and not fly around everywhere, thus enhancing his chance of surviving.
Lin Shuyan rushed over in another soldier’s mecha.
Ignoring others’ attempts to stop him, he jumped from one mecha to Nie Chuan’s.
There was an emergency exit on the outside of the mecha, and as long as that was opened, the person inside could be taken out.
“Therapist Lin. You can’t go up there, you’re an omega! You can’t withstand such dangerous mental power!”
“Let me up quickly. Nie Chuan must receive mental therapy immediately!”
Not only because he had once loved Nie Chuan… but also for the future of this Empire! Nie Chuan absolutely couldn’t die here!
“No, Therapist Lin.”
“What are you doing?”
When He Qixing flew out in his mech, he happened to see the two mechas suspended in the starry sky.
He recognized one of the mechas.
Lin Shuyan’s eyes brightened when he heard the voice, wiping away the tears in his eyes and immediately opening the communication channel of the mecha.
“Major He, General Nie Chuan’s mental power is about to go out of control. I need to give him mental therapy immediately. Can you get General Nie Chuan out?”
He Qixing’s brow tightened fiercely when he heard this. He just realized that there were many messages from Nie Chuan in his communication channel…
The place he had just entered was a pirate’s den.
The pirates in the den had already evacuated, and the released Zergs were baits to deliberately disrupt their pursuit.
Because there was a concealed shielding device outside the den… even their military communication channels were blocked.
“Okay!”
Seeing He Qixing coming over, Lin Shuyan immediately gave up his position, letting the more capable He Qixing stand in front of Nie Chuan’s mecha. He watched as He Qixing opened the emergency passage and took the person out from the mecha, then quickly asked a soldier beside him to spread out his palms to create a platform.
The situation was critical, and he needed to treat him on the spot.
He had come along just in case, so there was a mental treatment device in his dimensional space ring.
He Qixing helped to undo Nie Chuan’s clothes and connected him to the stabilizing mental power device. Lin Shuyan stayed further away because his physical constitution was not strong enough to withstand the spatial distortions caused by an alpha’s mental power riot.
He Qixing remained quiet; his military uniform was torn into tatters by the air blades and hung on him like rags, and he had also suffered quite a few internal injuries.
Originally, he had been staring at Nie Chuan, but then he seemed to think of something and his eyelashes trembled slightly. He looked over at Lin Shuyan, who was working hard to stabilize Nie Chuan’s mental power, and spoke.
“Sure enough…he still needs you more.”
“What nonsense are you talking about? If you hadn’t brought General Nie Chuan out, I wouldn’t have been able to treat him at all.”
He Qixing pursed his lips, lowered his head again, and looked at Nie Chuan.
“Without you… even if I brought him out, we would only die together.”
Upon hearing He Qixing’s words, Lin Shuyan first froze, then chuckled self-deprecatingly.
“Rather than accepting my treatment, he would rather die with you.”
“…”
“The General’s mental state has been unstable for quite some time… he just kept it secret from you.”
“Do you know why?”
He Qixing shook his head lightly and asked back.
“Why?”
“Because there has been only one method to stabilize his unstable mental power from the beginning…”
“Marking me and letting me stabilize his mental power with my omega pheromones.”
He Qixing’s pupils suddenly contracted.
“So, when you confessed to him back then, was it also for this reason?”
“Yes, although it’s only a temporary solution, it’s definitely much better than the current situation.” Lin Shuyan nodded.
“And… I do actually like him.”
This matter was considered beneficial both publicly and privately. He thought that by proposing this, Nie Chuan would agree.
But he didn’t expect to be decisively rejected by Nie Chuan.
This dealt a heavy blow to his confidence.
After all, he was a high-quality omega, and the other party was an alpha who had once secretly admired him. He had mustered the courage to confess, only for that person to refuse to be with him even at the cost of his own life.
“You can guess the results.”
“He knew that if you had known about his unstable mental state at that time and that there was only one method to save him, you would definitely impartially let him choose that only method. So, he didn’t tell you, but secretly let me treat him.”
He Qixing lowered his gaze, grabbing Nie Chuan’s clothes with some force.
“But now he doesn’t need to worry about that anymore. There’s a new method to treat his illness now. He probably also wants to explain to you why he always stayed with me before.”
“When we go back this time, you must carefully persuade him not to delay the operation any longer. If you keep dragging on like this, he might die before becoming a marshal. It’s not worth it.”
Lin Shuyan paused for a moment and continued.
“I believe… he will listen to your words.”
[Hospital]
“Xingxing… Xingxing…” Nie Chuan lay in bed, his head wrapped in bandages, murmuring continuously.
He Qixing’s hand was held tightly by Nie Chuan, and he fell asleep deeply with his pillow beside the hospital bed.
Suddenly, the hand connecting the two trembled, waking him up. Before he could fully lift his head, he was suddenly embraced tightly.
“Xingxing! Xingxing, you’re not dead, I thought you were dead!” Nie Chuan’s voice was still hoarse, the joy of regaining what was lost bringing tears to his eyes.
He Qixing initially wanted to say something comforting, but quickly grimaced.
“You… You’re almost strangling me, idiot!”
He Qixing pushed Nie Chuan away, then adjusted his crooked glasses.
“I’m not dead, it’s you who almost died.”
“Operating a mecha while your mental powers are unstable, idiot.”
Nie Chuan rubbed his nose.
“Xingxing, why do I feel… you’re so fond of scolding me today?”
Although he wasn’t as sharp-witted as He Qixing, he was now a capable general in his own right. Being called an idiot shouldn’t be relevant to him.
“You are…”
He Qixing dangerously curved his lips. “Lin Shuyan has told me everything, don’t think you can hide it from me.”
Nie Chuan recoiled, his expression fearful.
“He told you… he told you…”
That I like you?
Did he say that too?
He couldn’t do this; he himself has to confess his feeling.
“I can’t be with someone who risks self-destructing for no reason,” He Qixing said, turning his head away.
“Don’t say that. He didn’t tell you how deeply I feel,” Nie Chuan desperately said, very self-conscious.
“You have no idea. Lin Shuyan and I match perfectly in terms of pheromones, one hundred percent, it’s incredibly rare. I couldn’t even move when I saw him at the military academy. I rejected such an omega for you.”
Nie Chuan’s expression came off a bit too strong, causing He Qixing to look at him coldly.
“Hmm, since you’re such a perfect match, you should just stay with him then.”
Nie Chuan scratched his head, suddenly feeling the situation escalating.
He grabbed He Qixing, who was about to leave, and hugged him tightly again, his slightly prickly black hair brushing against He Qixing’s fair ear.
“It’s not like that.”
“You know what I mean…”
He Qixing’s ears turned red from the scratching, or perhaps because of his hair, or perhaps for other reason.
“The one whose pheromones match mine the most is Lin Shuyan, but the one who matches me the most is you.”
“I just wanted to prove…”
“Even if it goes against my nature, against my instincts, I will still choose you.”
He Qixing clenched his fingers tightly and finally stood up.
“Then let’s treat the illness.”
Nie Chuan lay dumbfounded on the bed. It took him a moment to react, and when He Qixing was about to reach the door, he stumbled over and leaned against the door.
“So, if my illness is cured, you’ll be willing to be with me… is that it?”
With his back to Nie Chuan, He Qixing hmm’ed and nodded.
The air fell silent.
He Qixing’s face gradually turned red, and after waiting for a while, he finally turned his head to see Nie Chuan’s expression.
But as soon as he turned his head, the alpha who had confessed to him so vigorously just moments ago suddenly collapsed to the ground.
He Qixing’s pupils contracted, and he turned to open the door, shouting:
“Doctor! The patient fainted!”
After calling out, he knelt down and performed standard CPR on the unconscious Nie Chuan.
Nie Chuan, lying on the ground, was awakened by the chest compressions, blinked his eyes, and reached out to grab He Qixing’s neck, turning the ordinary CPR into a deep kiss.
“…If my first kiss was artificial respiration, then it’d be a pity,” Nie Chuan muttered.
The beta doctor who was called over was trembling.
Nie Chuan, holding his head as if repenting, sat curled up on the ground, resting his head against his knees. He Qixing stood by, arms crossed, wiping the glasses that had been thrown to the ground due to the kiss.
“Nie Chuan… General Nie Chuan is fine, but his body hasn’t recovered yet and he passed out when he was excited.”
He seemed to have witnessed something extraordinary.
Would this high echelon alpha couple silence him? Probably not, right?
Marshal Gu Huan and Crown Prince Chu Xinglin’s marriage was viewed by everyone as an alpha-alpha marriage, so there was nothing wrong with a genuine same-sex relationship within the military. He completely agrees, truly.
Nie Chuan x He Qixing (End)
