Major General, a Male Zerg has been found on the battlefield!!

The mission was handed over to Zhuo Yan’s team, who had previously been to Qi County in Country C, and it went much more smoothly. They first searched the neighboring cities, then spent nearly five days using the thermal sensors provided by the Zerg to search in all directions.

Finally, in a cave deep in the mountains, the human soldiers found the severely injured, blood-deprived, and unconscious leader of the space pirates.

The guy was quite lucky. According to the military doctor, if they had been a day later, the man would have become a cold corpse, turning into food for the wild animals in the mountains, unnoticed by anyone.

“Did you get any useful information out of him?”

“I spent three days and nights on him, and the results were exactly the same as what that space pirate named ‘Chi’ said.”

No matter how much Rhys threatened or tempted him, the man’s answers remained the same.

According to the captured space pirate leader, the Zerg male they traded with was very cautious. He initially didn’t reveal any information, and even the labels ‘Zerg’ and ‘male’ were extracted by Fox-Eye during a task detail discussion, using some techniques while the man was relaxed.

So, the space pirates really only knew this little bit about their generous buyer.

“Forget it, we’re going to be on Earth for a long time. We can interrogate them from time to time. I don’t believe these space pirates can keep hiding the truth.”

“Yes.” Rhys helped the male put on an outer coat with a Zerg style and also took the ‘Zerg specialties’ the male zerg had asked to bring.

As one of the items on the reception checklist provided by diplomat Enzo, today, the male lord needed to represent the Zerg, while Rhys represented the Zerg military, to visit the military headquarters where the male lord had previously served and have a friendly exchange with the Chief of Staff of the Earth’s military corps.

“Why do I have to wear this outfit? It’s so uncomfortable.” He Qin fussed with the sleeves clinging to his skin, looking displeased.

He Qin had always hated the luxurious attire exclusive to Zerg males. Wearing something similar to the Rococo-style noble outfits of 18th-century European aristocrats always made him feel like a peacock in mating display.

A group of Zerg females under Barton’s command had spent a whole day nagging around him to accept the male’s attire, and He Qin finally agreed just to stop their noise.

Damn it, if he went ‘home’ dressed like this and ran into someone he knew, he’d be laughed at.

Rhys, however, loved He Qin’s outfit today. The red inner lining paired with a dark blue robe made the male’s skin appear even brighter. The exclusive stylist had tied the male’s medium-length hair into a small ponytail, leaving the rest to hang down his back. The silver tie fluttered in the air, reflecting the owner’s cheerful personality.

The male lord’s broad frame and the semi-exposed chest of the Zerg attire highlighted He Qin’s masculine hormones to the max, a blend of cheerful and wild.

The rarely exquisitely dressed male zerg really makes it hard for one to hold back!

“Just endure until the end of today, or those bothersome females will pester you again,” Rhys said, swallowing a bit of excess saliva unnoticed by the male zerg.

He Qin looked down, watching Rhys button up his loose cuff and smooth out the wrinkles in his clothes. The Zerg Major General, feared by others, was so gentle and obedient around him.

The male zerg’s mood shifted quickly. He Qin was soon all smiles again, even giving a generous kiss before heading out.

“Long time no see, Xiao Qin. Major General Rhys, welcome to our corps,” the human Chief of Staff greeted warmly, having arrived early at the corps’ entrance to welcome the Zerg.

He had served in the corps for over a decade, and as Chief of Staff, he needed to know every excellent soldier. In his memory, Xiao Qin was not only outstanding in overall ability but also possessed remarkable potential for development.

He wanted to give the young man more battlefield experience, hoping to groom him into a corps leader.

When he learned He Qin was a male Zerg, he felt shock and regret.

“Chief Lin, long time no see,” He Qin said, handing the man a box filled with Zerg specialties. These delicate Zerg pastries turned out to be quite useful.

“You’ve grown taller.”

“Yes, I grew a few centimeters during the transformation period.” Perhaps due to the thick fabric of the Zerg attire, He Qin’s cheeks flushed, though his skin wasn’t very pale, so it wasn’t too noticeable.

Despite being a Zerg, He Qin still felt a bit nervous when answering questions from his former superior.

“Major General Rhys, this is the training ground of the Earth Corps. Soldiers conduct combat training, shooting practice, tactical drills, and physical training here.”

“Hmm, one of the alliance matters we brought up is that if the alliance is achieved, the Zergs will provide builders to help Earth construct several training rooms equipped with our technology.”

Human technology is truly too primitive. Even the soldiers’ training grounds are mostly physically constructed. Soldiers training in such a single environment cannot simulate various enemies and extreme conditions.

Half a year ago, Earth was invaded by the Saranites. This means that this resource-rich planet has already been exposed to various higher beings in the universe.

“That would be wonderful. Thank you and your people very much.” To the Chief of Staff Lin, who only understands warfare, forming a friendly cooperation with the Zergs has no downsides.

If only things were as easy as Chief Lin said!

Several diplomats trailing behind the group felt like they were bleeding internally, though they still wore smiles on their faces.

Chief Lin, you have no idea. The technological support provided by the Zerg comes with trade-offs. Earth’s rich resources such as organisms, soil, minerals, coal, and more must be exchanged with the Zergs.

“Xiao Qin?”

As the group was about to follow Chief Lin into the weapons room, a familiar female voice suddenly reached He Qin’s ears.

At this time, the soldiers should all be in group training. He Qin turned around, “Sister Xiaoya?” Recognizing the woman’s face, He Qin almost ran over to her.

He Qin grew up in the military department. As a child, he was very mischievous around familiar people and often teased the few female soldiers in the army.

No matter how mischievous he was, the female soldiers couldn’t bear to scold him harshly when they saw his baby-fat face. Instead, they vented their anger on his teammates Roy and Alger who came to fetch him.

The motherly instinct in the girls was thus discovered, and they found joy in the dull military life by feeding little He Qin whenever they could.

“Xiao Qin, you haven’t contacted your sisters for so long, not even a letter. Since going to the Zergs, you’ve forgotten about us.” As she spoke, the female soldier’s eyes turned red, on the verge of tears.

He Qin couldn’t bear to see girls cry. He hurriedly explained, “No, no, it’s just that I couldn’t contact everyone from the Zerg. I haven’t even contacted Roy and the others.”

It was better not to mention Roy. Bringing him up made the female soldier even more emotional. “How dare you say that? You’ve been on Earth for so long and haven’t come to see us. I heard from the male soldiers that you even had a meal with them.” Tears streamed down her face like a breached dam.

“Ah, sister, please don’t cry,” He Qin took a handkerchief from his pocket, clumsily wiping her tears. “I’m sorry, sister, please forgive me…” He lowered his head, calling her ‘sister’ in a whiny tone, his voice trembling.

A handsome boy acting cute and playful just to make you happy—who could resist that?

The human side, composed of adult men, didn’t feel much about He Qin’s actions, but the all-female Zerg diplomatic team couldn’t stay calm.

The female Zergs widened their eyes, watching the little male act cute. Some even let important documents fall to the ground in their distraction.

“If you keep crying, Chief Lin will throw you out of the barracks.” Actually, after only two or three minutes of coaxing, He Qin felt very tired and decided to use this last resort.

Girls are just too emotional, unlike his Rhys, who could be easily cheered up with a simple pat on the head.

“Sorry for the disturbance, Chief of Staff,” Xiaoya realized she had interrupted a large group behind the young man, including several of her superiors.

“Hahaha, it’s fine, it’s fine. Are you heading to the medical office? Go ahead,” Chief Lin, unable to lose his temper in front of important guests, noticed the prescription in the female soldier’s hand and gave her an excuse.

“Yes, yes, I need to go to the medical office,” Xiaoya, with thirty years of experience, knew how to read the room.

She choked back her tears, giving He Qin a look as she left, as if saying, “If you don’t reach out to us soon, you’re dead.”

He Qin watched her trying to leave while maintaining her military demeanor, amused. Holding back his laughter, he returned to Rhys’s side.

Was it just his imagination? Rhys seemed to have a strange look in his eyes.

Chief Lin was passionately introducing Earth’s weapons, while He Qin sneaked glances at Rhys, wondering if he was overthinking. Rhys appeared fully engaged in the conversation with Chief Lin.

Rhys furrowed his brow, seemingly focused on the human’s introduction, but his mind was in turmoil.

The human that the male referred to as “sister” must be a female in human terms, similar to petite sub-females.

The fact that his lord was so friendly to another female, even wiping her tears, stirred a feeling in Rhys.

As Chief Lin delved into the most exciting part of his speech, reminiscing about the past, Rhys took the opportunity to turn and look at the little male, his eyes filled with a mix of anger and sadness.

Such a cute display from his male lord, rarely seen, was now shown in front of a dozen humans and females?

No, it was too much. Rhys couldn’t contain his feelings, his eyes reflecting his jealousy and hurt.

Ah, so he was jealous!

It made sense. While Sister Xiaoya was like a big sister to He Qin, to Rhys, it might have seemed like he was showing affection to another female.

Fully aware of what was bothering his lover, He Qin mouthed silently, “Sweetie, I still love you the most. I’ll explain everything when we get home.”
