‘Whoosh-whoosh.’

Sharp arrows covered them. The enemy was at a high place, and they were caught off guard and trapped in a narrow alley. They didn’t have any advantage.

Cecil was trembling with fear. He was afraid that Zhou Mian, who was carrying the ball now, would be injured, and he was also worried about Yi Lun, the three-legged cat kung fu guy. He shouted: “Get out! Don’t be obsessed with fighting.”

“Yeah!” Wang Zun’s kung fu is very good, and Cecil took the lead and rushed out. Although Zhou Mian has limited mobility and dare not make any big moves, he can still protect and help himself.

They tried their best to rush out of the alley.

“Ugh!”

The sharp arrows penetrated every hole. Even though Wang Zun was guarding Ilya, who had no strength to restrain, his arm still accidentally was grazed by the tip of the arrow.

“Ilya!” Wang Zun helped him.

‘Bang.’

Zhou Mian jumped up, stood in front of the two of them, and swept away the sharp arrows.

Wang Zun nodded quickly to Zhou Mian to express his gratitude.

The tip of the arrow was rubbed with poison, and Ilya had fainted. Wang Zun immediately picked him up.

With the cooperation of several people, they finally managed to break out of the siege.

“Follow me!” Cecil patted Wang Zun on the shoulder.

They got into Cecil’s car parked not far away. Cecil stepped on the accelerator and the car headed for the airport.

“Where are you going?!” Wang Zun hugged Ilya and turned around to see those Zerg warriors chasing after him in their aircraft, showing no intention of giving in at all.

‘Boom’

Cecil drifted, barely dodging the aircraft’s gunfire. Black smoke and fire exploded next to the car. Aeron held his head and yelled at Wang Zun, “Did you steal the Zerg Queen’s husband?”

What’s going on?

Aeron had previously thought that the Zerg got the news and knew that Zhou Mian and Cecil were out to assassinate them, but it seemed that even Aeron, a layman, knew that the Zerg were clearly targeting Ilya. Naturally, Zhou Mian and Cecil couldn’t just sit idly.

“It’s a long story. I’ll explain it to you later.” Wang Zun gritted his teeth and said, “I’m really sorry”

“It’s okay.” Zhou Mian held the car door and said, “Hold on a little longer.”

Cecil was very cautious for this trip because he was worried that something might happen to Zhou Mian. So he had the Twelfth Army nearby so that he could take help immediately if anything happened.

At this moment, Cecil had already conveyed the order to Casper.

Buzzing

Wang Zun was stunned when he saw a row of federal aircraft in the night sky not far away.

Wang Zun seemed to want to jump out of the car with Ilya in his arms, but after glancing at the people following them, he hesitated and had no choice but to follow Cecil.

This series of actions couldn’t escape Zhou Mian’s eyes, and he couldn’t help but be confused.

‘Boom’

The main battleship landed, the hatch opened, and Cecil drove his car directly onto the battleship, while the other aircraft rushed forward and fired at the Zerg.

“Arrest them!” Cecil grinned: “Catch them all as they come to your door!”

“Yes.”

And Ilya was sent to the infirmary.

Seeing the doctor was about to lift up Ilya’s sleeves for inspection, Wang Zun suddenly slapped the doctor’s hand away and said with a cold face: “Thank you for your life-saving grace. After the Zerg are repelled, we can go down and seek treatment ourselves.”

Aeron frowned slightly and said, “Don’t worry! They are the best doctors in the federation. It’s not a problem.”

Wang Zun stood in front of Ilya, his hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist and whispered: ” I’m sorry.”

“…Huh?” Aeron just thought there was something wrong with this person.

He glanced at Ilya’s pale face and couldn’t help but persuade him: “I think you can probably guess who we are. We promise you on the honor of the Federation that we will not harm you.”

If they don’t do anything for Ilya, something bad might actually happen to him!

Zhou Mian paused and said with a smile: “It doesn’t matter, we will not kill innocent people indiscriminately, including Zerg.”

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room was shocked.

Aeron looked at Zhou Mian blankly and said, “Zerg… tribe?”

Zhou Mian said, “Ilya is from the Zerg tribe, right?”

Wang Zun suddenly looked at everyone warily.

Cecil raised his eyebrows and said, “Don’t worry, you have helped us, and we also know that you are not bad people. We will not hurt you just because of the difference in blood.”

Wang Zun glanced at Ilya, whose face had turned green, and hesitated for a moment. He cupped his fists and said, “I believe you.”

The doctor stepped forward to treat Ilya’s injuries. Wang Zun stayed by his side, fearing something might happen to Ilya..

Seeing Wang Zun’s stance, Aeron also sat down next to him and asked, “Are you also a Zerg? Have you ever… experienced any harm or pursuit from the Federation before?”

Otherwise, you wouldn’t be so alert.

“I’m from the Federation.” Wang Shu said: “I used to be a frontier soldier, but I retired early because of serious mental injuries. Later, I rescued Ilya who was besieged by gangsters on a deserted planet, and that’s how we got to know each other.”

As if remembering the past, Wang Xun couldn’t help but curl up his lips.

“He is different from other Zerg I met on the battlefield. He is very kind and knowledgeable. It is he who made me understand that there are not only bad people in Zerg. There are Zerg who try to harm the Federation and cruelly eat people, but there are also good people. In the end, all problems are created by the superiors.”

Cecil and Zhou Mian looked at each other. After a pause, Zhou Mian smiled and said, “It makes sense.”

“Wang…”

Ilya woke up in a daze.

“I’m here.” Wang Shu immediately returned the hand that Ilya extended. After Ilya grabbed Wang Shun’s hand, he fainted again.

Aeron paused and asked: “Soldiers on the border…? Then do you know Gu Xingzhi, Major General Gu?”

Wang Shun was stunned and said with a smile: “Of course, I was one of his adjutants before, but I was injured. I will never be able to go to war again. Do you know him too?”

“…Yes.” Aeron gritted his teeth.

Wang Shu glanced at Aeron, frowned slightly and said, “Young Master, you don’t like him, do you?”

“What do you think?” Aeron gritted his teeth even more.

“Then I’m sorry…” Wang Xun shook his head and frowned, “You have no chance.”

“…Why?” Aeron’s face was expressionless.

Zhou Mian and Cecil couldn’t help but be astonished at the mention of Gu Xingzhi.

“Because…our Major General Gu has had a favorite since he was a child. He is the Federation Prince. Major General Gu wore the necklace given to him by His Highness the Prince whenever he goes to war. The necklace fell off once, and Major General Gu went alone. Regardless of the formation, he rushed into the enemy’s lair like crazy to get it back.”

Aeron was stunned.

Wang Zun continued: “You don’t believe it? The Major General likes his Highness the Prince. When he is drunk, he will keep saying his name and say… that he misses him very much. It had not changed after so many years passed.”

Seeing Aeron’s face pale and with a petrified expression, Wang Shu couldn’t bear it. He reached out and patted Aeron’s shoulder and said: “Don’t be too depressed. It’s not that there is no chance. After all, Major General Gu said that he and His Highness the Prince had no chance. His Highness is a prince, and Major General Gu is not willing to let him suffer with him at the frontier.”

“You…you shut up.” Aeron’s lips trembled and he pointed at Wang Shun and said, “Shut up!” After saying that, Aeron covered his face and ran away.

Wang Zun didn’t know why.

Zhou Mian said helplessly: “The real name of the person who escaped just now is Yi Lun.”

Wang Zun: “????”

Wang Zun: “…” He was wrong.

“Then you…” Wang Zun frowned, pointed at Cecil and Zhou Mian, and said, “You shouldn’t be ordinary soldiers, right?”

“Hello.” Cecil stretched out his hand to Wang Zun and said with a smile, “Let me Introduce myself again. I am Cecil, General of the Federation.”

Wang Zun’s eyes widened. This…

“Admiral…!” Wang Zun then knelt and performed a military salute.

“You should believe us now.” Cecil smiled: “We will not harm you. In the same way, we also hope that your purpose is pure.” “I guarantee with my life that as a former federal soldier, I will never do anything to harm the people of the Federation.” Wang Zun stood up straight and said, “Okay.”

But even so, Wang Zun still did not leave Ilya and still insisted on staying by his side.

Cecil and Zhou Mian temporarily left the infirmary. Zhou Mian frowned and said: “Wang Zun didn’t tell us about Ilya’s identity. I think he… is not just an ordinary Zerg.”

“Naturally. How can ordinary Zerg people do this? Let the Zerg royal family send so many soldiers to chase him?” Cecil smiled and shook his head: “If he doesn’t want to say it, forget it. Let’s see what happens when Ilya wakes up.”

Zhou Mian nodded in agreement.

“Now…you have to go to bed first.” Cecil knocked on Zhou Mian’s forehead and said, “It’s been a tiring day and the car ride was bumpy all the way. I’ll ask the doctor to check you out later.”

“Hey…it’s not that troublesome.”

“No trouble, just listen to me. Be good.” Cecil kissed Zhou Mian domineeringly, blocking out the rest of his words. Zhou Mian helplessly wrapped his arms around Cecil’s waist and let him take it.

After the two went back to the room to wash up, Zhou Mian lay on the bed and underwent a doctor’s examination.

“Nothing’s wrong, the baby is very healthy.” The doctor smiled and said happily, “Very healthy!”

“Thank you, doctor.” Zhou Mian lowered his eyes and was also happy.

“How is Ilya doing?”

“It’s not serious. The toxin has been removed. He can wake up after a night’s rest.” The doctor patted his chest and said, “Two admirals, please don’t worry!” After the doctor left, Cecil leaned next to Zhou Mian, reached out and touched his belly, and said with a smile, “A-Mian, we haven’t thought of a name for the baby yet.”

Zhou Mian raised his head and said, “What name do you want? We don’t know if it’s a boy or a girl. It’s not decided yet.”

“We can find names suitable for both.” Cecil hugged Zhou Mian and said, “Think more from now on! Anyway, it can be used in the future.”

Zhou Mian blushed and patted Cecil gently. “Cecil…” Zhou Mian leaned against Cecil and said, “I miss Xiaole.” It was originally agreed that we would only come out for two days.

“It’s okay. We’ll go back tomorrow night. Otherwise, we can take Xiaole over and play together.” Cecil hugged Zhou Mian and lay down together. “Go to sleep now. We’ll think about the rest tomorrow.” Zhou Mian plopped on Cecil’s arm and said softly “Hmm.”

The night was very gentle.
