Chapter 132: My Wife Is Rich as a Country (Second Update)
Inside the aircraft carrier prison, Zhou Jiuyao was interrogating Cecilia.
There was a layer of special glass between them, and they sat facing each other.Cecilia's hands and feet were locked by mechanical locks. She changed into prisoner's clothes, but she still couldn't hide her superior figure.
However, becoming a prisoner did not seem to be a particularly bad thing for Cecilia. She still had the same enchanting posture and was playing with her beautiful nails leisurely.
"I'm not interested in you, Zhou Xiaoniao. Ask Pei Changyun to come in person."
Zhou Jiuya had a cold look on his face.
"Do you think you have the capital to negotiate terms?"
"Why not? Besides, is the secret I told you so important?"
Cecilia held the side of her face with one hand and drew circles on the table casually.
"The once beloved Saint has been imprisoned for more than two hundred years. Whose fault do you think it is?"
Speaking of this, she paused with her fingertips, and the lazy smile on her face suddenly turned cold.
"Jiang Jinsheng, a mere B-level alpha, clearly doesn't have the ability to protect her but he still wants to provoke her."
Back then, the Saint broke with the Pope and was imprisoned. As an apostle, Cecilia was naturally coveted by all kinds of people.Because she is an omega.And it's Class A.In such a difficult environment, Cecilia grew up rapidly.It took her more than two hundred years to finally carve out her own place in the church where the jungle prevailed.
She had tried every possible means and worked hard to repair the relationship between the Pope and the Saint.Even with little success, the jail order has not been lifted.But at least Bai Min was alive and her heart was beating.
And Jiang Jinsheng's so-called rescue caused her beloved Mingxin to die.
"Do you think their original plan was really perfect?"
Cecilia grinned in a very weird smile,
"The Pope's hands and eyes are open to the sky. There is nothing in the Holy White Tower that he wants to know but cannot know. Every believer, and maybe even more things you can't think of..."
"—It's all his eyes."
As she spoke, she suddenly opened her collar, revealing a large area of fair skin on her chest.
This woman's action was so unexpected that Zhou Jiuya was shocked and immediately looked away as if he was electrocuted.However, Cecilia was wearing a low-cut sling underneath. Apart from being sexy and beautiful, there was nothing vulgar about it.
Even though Zhou Jiuya quickly looked away, from the corner of his eye, he still caught a glimpse of the large blood-gold mark on the woman's chest that spread to her collarbone.
Before that, it should have been golden.
Zhou Jiuya frowned.
"you……"
"Oh, it's so rare for an old man to show such innocence."
Cecilia winked at him with a coquettish expression,
"Well, it's Leah's fault. I forgot that the Legion Master is still single. It seems that he hasn't come into contact with any omega in so many years..."
Speaking of this, Cecilia seemed to suddenly think of something surprising. She stared at the stiff man opposite, with a face full of narrow-mindedness and gossip.
"Zhou Xiaoniao, you're not over three hundred years old...you're still a baby bird, right?"
The legion leader was hit by an arrow in his knee: "..."
Following Ye Shu's stingy attack, Zhou Jiuya once again encountered malice from all over the world.
But the fact is indeed true. Ever since Pei Changyun organized a blind date a long time ago, he has never seen a normal, delicate and cute omega again.
Zhou Jiuya, on the other hand, is a straight-A, with a straight sexual orientation toward an omega, but he has no contact with the army or on the battlefield.In addition, his level is too high, and it is difficult to find a suitable pheromone match.But the most important thing is that he is Pei Changyun's confidant and the main commander of the imperial army. Once he really marries an omega, he will inevitably spend a lot of time on his family.
Zhou Jiuya was very busy. He was so busy that he regretted not being able to take good care of the young Jiang Ci. Naturally, he had no time to consider personal issues.
So one deal after another, one after another, one after another, and now we are alone.In addition, the legion leader has always kept himself clean and self-sufficient. He takes care of his physical needs by himself and won't look for some beautiful betas that don't need to be marked.So he became an old chick over three hundred years old.
Zhou Jiuya closed his eyes and decided to change the topic, but at this time Cecilia had already spoken first,
"It's better to ask Pei Changyun to come."
She smiled and directly suppressed Zhou Jiuya's refusal, and said meaningfully,
"Do you also want to listen to the whispers His Highness Huo Chao told his wife?"
"?!!"
The word wife shocked Zhou Jiuya. It took him a long time to react before he realized that the other person was referring to Pei Changyun.
"..."
Huo Chao's wife... Pei Changyun...
Although he had learned about the relationship between the Marshal and His Majesty the Emperor a few days ago, Zhou Jiuya still could not accept it calmly.At this moment, his scalp felt numb.
After a few minutes, the legion commander's brain quickly calmed down. He looked at Cecilia for a few seconds. Of course, he knew that Cecilia's words were 90% false.Because Huo Chao would not leave a message for her, but Cecilia kept asking to see Pei Changyun, and what he wanted to say was probably related to that person.
So Zhou Jiuya thought for a moment, took a step back, turned on his headset and told his subordinates outside,
"Go and invite your Majesty to come."
"yes."
At the same time, the diligent Emperor is still dealing with the affairs of Heng Yun Star.Last night's celebration party was nothing special to him. Pei Changyun had never been a teetotaler.
"Your Majesty, your breakfast."
The captain of the guard brought carefully prepared breakfast, but in fact it was just a better quality nutritional solution.
The Heng Yun star is also a life star. The seeds and animals brought from the earth can already start to breed. Therefore, in addition to the nutrient solution, it can also ensure a diet similar to that on the earth.But for Pei Changyun, he is too busy and only needs enough energy to support his work.
"okay."
Pei Changyun finished the drink in one gulp and motioned for him to go down.
"Your Majesty, you only slept for three hours last night. Do you want to rest...?"
"Need not."
Pei Changyun rubbed his eyebrows. He was just reading the report from Hengyun Star.Successfully suppressing the rebellion of the Third Legion does not mean that all dangerous factors have been eliminated.Moreover, the disappearance of the Holy White Tower also made him very concerned.
Now that he himself and the main force of the First Legion are on Saint Dew, it is possible that the church will turn around and attack Heng Yun.Although Pei Changyun didn't think that the other party had the strength to directly take over Heng Yun Star, but if they really had to fight to the death, the empire would definitely be hit hard.Therefore, the top priority is to find the Holy White Tower and make all defenses and arrangements for the capital star...
"His Majesty"
At this time, an alpha officer stood at the door,
"The female prisoner wants to see you."
His Majesty the Emperor didn't even raise his head: "No, let Zhou Jiuya go and interrogate."
He had nothing to say to Cecilia.
The officer was embarrassed and whispered,
"But, she said it was about...Marshal Huo Chao."
"..."
Pei Changyun made a move.
Ten minutes later, Pei Changyun sat opposite Cecilia. Zhou Jiuyao did not participate. He was guarding outside.The soundproofing here is very well done and the recording system is turned off.
In other words, only Pei Changyun and Cecilia knew the content of the subsequent interrogation.
His Majesty the Emperor looked at her intently for a few seconds, and his eyes swept over the holy mark spreading up on her neck. It was red gold and getting redder, like a gorgeous flower branch growing up.
His Majesty the Emperor moved his eyes away, his voice was steady and calm,
"Say it."
"I thought you wouldn't come."
Cecilia tilted her head and smiled sweetly,
"After all, you have stayed in Hengyun Star for the past three hundred years, like a turtle shrinking into its shell without even showing your head."
"..."
Pei Changyun didn't answer.
——Because it is.
Since the earth became a death star, Pei Changyun has never left Hengyun Star.Later, the alliance was completely overthrown, the empire grew stronger and stronger, and its territory began to expand crazily, and he never left.Even when countless people went to Earth to pay homage to Huo Chao, even the Pope went there, Pei Changyun never went there even once.This is also one of the evidences used by those who previously slandered him.
For three hundred years, Pei Changyun has been guarding Hengyun Star.
The imperial dictatorship system gave him supreme power and also made him the heart and brain of the country.Therefore, Pei Changyun cannot be in any danger.Because if he dies, the Illusion God Religion will invade again without any scruples, just like they did when they controlled the alliance.So he can't die.
"Yes, you can't die."
Seeing that the other party didn't answer, Cecilia nodded to herself,
"After all, Your Majesty, you are dead and have no heir."
"..."
Pei Changyun stared at her coldly.
"You came to me just to talk nonsense?"
"I haven't seen you for so long, your attitude is really cold, Xiao Yunyun~"
"..."
Pei Changyun tapped behind his ear and told the guard,
"Go and borrow Chengyue and let the best mecha technician change the outer coating."
Chengyue's exterior machine coating was painted by Bai Min and Cecilia.
"yes!"
The guard was about to leave, but suddenly he heard a sharp alarm from the mechanical lock.
boom!
Cecilia slammed her fist on the table, like a lioness that was suddenly enraged.
"Pei Changyun, how dare you!"
"Why don't you dare?"
His Majesty the Emperor raised his eyebrows, then turned his head, his emerald eyes extremely cold.
"So capture Cecilia, can you speak properly now?"
"..."
The woman stared at him coldly, then sat back down again.
"Ha, threaten me... Pei Changyun, you think you're hiding your tail well."
The tail refers to the handle and weakness that can be used to threaten.
Just like Pei Changyun can threaten him with Bai Min, Cecilia can also threaten Huo Chao.
"No need to hide."
His tone was calm,
"already dead."
And unlike Bai Min who left Cheng Yue for Cecilia, Pei Changyun had nothing, so he had no tail, no handle, and nothing related to that person that could make him threatened.
"..."
Cecilia was silent for a few seconds, then spoke,
"What if I said, that person can survive."
"Don't use the same move on me twice."
Pei Changyun lowered his head and straightened his sleeves with a cold expression.
"It's just a fake, it's dirty my hands."
"Oh... you don't believe it. It seems that Zhou Jiuya has a lot of things that he hasn't told you. Even His Majesty the Pope has been investigating this secret for more than two hundred years. It's normal that you don't know."
Cecilia nodded in understanding. She held the side of her face with one hand and showed a meaningful smile.
"Well, our Highness Huo Chao did not die in a nuclear explosion."
She looked at Pei Changyun, whose body froze for an instant, and tilted her head in his suddenly cold gaze.
"I should have died in that nuclear explosion..."
"——It's Huo Xianfeng."
At the same time, Huo Xianfeng was flipping through the study materials and highlighted the knowledge about omega's milk increase during pregnancy and subsequent lactation.However, it seemed that he saw something he couldn't understand. Huo Xianfeng sat by the bed and asked questions seriously.
"Jiang Ci, why does it only say that during pregnancy, the omega uses pheromones to soothe the alpha, and nothing else?"
The Major General, who was shocked by the breastfeeding period, came to his senses, wrapped himself in a quilt and came over to take a look and nodded.
"Yes, because after every omega gets pregnant, the empire will immediately assign professional nannies to take care of the whole process. They usually choose female betas with rich experience and gentle personalities. So alphas only need to be comforted by pheromones regularly."
"..."
Huo Xianfeng couldn't understand.
Although he understood human society, the matter of giving birth to offspring was of little help to him, so he did not study it in depth at the time. But now that he looked at it, he found it very strange, and he couldn't help but confirm it again.
"So, Alpha has no other duty of care? Even after the cub is born, it will be taken care of by Omega and some kind of nanny?"
"right."
Jiang Ci nodded.He also had a nanny when he was a child, but he didn't like it. He spent more time in the laboratory with his father and Xiao X, but then He Zhun came. Jiang Ci deliberately made trouble in the laboratory in order to attract his father's attention. Jiang JinSheng Wenwen tried to reason with her many times but failed, and then he was banned from entering.
Looking back now, it seems that no alpha can take care of an omega like Huo Xianfeng, and it can be seen from Marshal Huo Chao's previous star blog that Huo Xianfeng is even good at taking care of children.
"Are you Zerg different?"
There are only male and female genders in the Zerg race, and it seems strange that Huo Xianfeng, as the king, can take care of children.Jiang Ci's thirst for knowledge came over. He ate while holding Can Guan, rolled up the quilt and moved over, stared at Huo Xianfeng and asked,
"Then what is your general process for raising cubs?"
Huo Xianfeng thought for a while and replied,
"When the female of the advanced insect race is responsible for gestating the insect eggs, the male must be responsible for fulfilling the obligation of full care. Including protection, feeding, taking care of emotions, and preparing everything to deal with all possible accidents. After the eggs are laid,It’s a recovery period for the female body, so the male is responsible for incubating the eggs and taking care of the young.”
"Such a clear and engraved instinct in the gender gene can maintain the stability of the partnership to the greatest extent and improve the survival rate of the cubs. We confirm that there is no concept of 'marriage' in a partnership, nor does it exist in similar relationships.It is said that an omega gives birth to a child for an alpha. The cubs are the cubs of both partners. In the Zerg’s understanding, it is natural that both parties should contribute and raise them together.”
"..."
Do you have a duty of care to your pregnant partner?Still have to hatch eggs and take care of the babies???
Jiang Ci was stunned when he heard this.
"But Huo Xianfeng, aren't you the king?"
Do you have to do this for such a top position?
"Yes, I am."
Huo Xianfeng nodded.
"But this is determined by gender genes and has nothing to do with whether it is a king or not. The king of the Zerg race is not limited to gender. If a female is the king, then she is the one responsible for breeding the eggs."
But Huo Xianfeng is a male, so he has to fulfill his obligation to take care of his wife when she is pregnant with insect eggs.Because of this, he didn't quite understand that human beings' so-called care for alpha was just pheromone comfort, and what comfort was, to put it bluntly, physical intimacy and bonding, how could it be considered care.But he went through all the information and found that in human cognition, alphas do not need to be able to take care of their partners.
Of course, there are a few alphas who will take care of their wives during pregnancy, but some small things that should be obligations in Huo Xianfeng's eyes will be taken out and warmly praised by everyone in human society.
"It is normal and natural for an omega to give birth to a child, but for an alpha to take care of a pregnant partner, in the eyes of the public, he has put in a lot of effort, which is a great thing that deserves to be praised... So Jiang Ci, don't you think this is strange?"
Moreover, the omega responsible for nurturing offspring in humans is still very weak, and is completely inferior to the strong women of the advanced Zerg.
"..."
Jiang Ci was stunned. He felt that Huo Xianfeng's words were so special, but also very... very reasonable.He was silent for a moment, nodded,
"It's...a little strange."
He looked down at the jars in his arms and suddenly realized something. Then he raised his head and asked Huo Xianfeng,
"So yesterday, your temperature started to rise, you showed aggression towards outsiders, and you were a little...sluggish, was it because you had begun to instinctively fulfill your duty of care?"
"right."
Huo Xianfeng nodded, then he was silent for a moment and replied,
"But...this state is not instinctive. I will adjust quickly. Tomorrow at the latest."
"No, no, no, no hurry, no hurry, take your time."
Jiang Ci couldn't hold back his smile. The more he looked at Huo Xianfeng in this state, the more cute he felt. He even couldn't help but go up and kiss him.
"Take it easy."
Wang, who was kissed by his wife again: "..."
In the past, Jiang Ci rarely took the initiative to kiss him, but it seemed different now that she was pregnant.Huo Xianfeng silently made a note, adding one more item to the omega's pregnancy habit:
——Like kissing him.
Wang's lips curled up.
Yeah, that's a nice hobby.
Jiang Ci finished all the "jellybeans" in the jar, and finally felt seventy-eight percent full.Although he didn't know how much energy these were, Jiang Ci calculated the nutrient solution he just drank and found that it was originally enough for him for three months.Therefore, it is speculated that the energy of these light yellow gummy things made of honey is definitely an extremely exaggerated number.
At this time, Jiang Ci was finally able to empathize with Huo Xianfeng.At that time, Jiang Ci thought it was an exaggeration when the other party ate nearly a month's worth of food at once in the cave.Now he felt that Huo Xianfeng had to endure a lot silently by himself.
It turns out that it wasn't that he didn't have any pregnancy reactions before, but that he was delayed.
"Will I always eat this much in the future?"
"Well, maybe a little more."
Huo Xianfeng helped Jiang Ci put the jar aside.
"The light of the egg cubs was not bright enough before because of the lack of energy. I speculate that maybe it is because you are not carrying a fetus but an insect egg, so your body has not yet reacted to the pregnancy. The mother's body and the insect egg will affect each other. Therefore.The mental power threshold that has been skyrocketing before must also be affected by pregnancy."
Just like some human pregnant women will grow taller after pregnancy, it is not impossible for Jiang Ci's mental power threshold to increase.
Huo Xianfeng's IQ was still online, and he quickly clarified all the previous problems on the first night he learned that his wife was pregnant.
"...So that's it."
Jiang Ci immediately understood.The Zerg are much stronger than humans, so when he was pregnant, he did not enter the weak stage like a normal omega, but moved closer to the Zerg.
Huo Xianfeng brought the clothes over, then lifted the quilt and put it on his wife.
"Get up when you're full. Let's go find Dr. Wen and ask about your lactation period and other related matters."
Jiang Ci: "..."
It was okay not to mention lactation, but when he mentioned it, he suddenly felt that his chest seemed to be a little swollen.
Omega milk will increase during pregnancy, regardless of men or women. A few will start to increase during the third or fourth month of pregnancy, and most will occur after the seventh or eighth month.After delivery, omega will feed the baby, so milk will also be produced.
This is common sense, Jiang Ci knows it, but his subconscious doesn't want to face it.Because he had seen a breastfeeding omega, and it was so embarrassing.
"No!"
Jiang Ci took Huo Xianfeng's hand and spoke very fast,
"No need to go, I've studied it, I know everything, I can handle it myself!"
"...?"
Huo Xianfeng looked at him steadily for a few seconds, then reached out to button his shirt.
"What are you going to do about it?"
"..."
Jiang Ci looked at Huo Xianfeng intently, suddenly feeling that he had suddenly transformed from the peacock with his tail open some time ago into an extremely gentle and virtuous husband.But before Jiang Ci could think of how to reply, he suddenly felt the other person's hand touch his chest, then he rubbed it tentatively, and then squeezed it.
"It seems, better than last night..."
Jiang Ci instantly covered his mouth, and immediately took out Huo Xianfeng's hand.
"No! These are chest muscles! They are chest muscles!!! I have been training harder recently, so... my chest muscles are better trained."
The genes of omegas naturally determine that they will be weak, so Jiang Ci has been training hard for more than ten years, but he only has some muscle lines and has not been able to develop the exaggerated muscles like those alpha officers.
Huo Xianfeng's logical thinking is very clear. He believes that it is impossible for Jiang Ci to suddenly develop full chest muscles recently.
"oh……"
However, Jiang Ci has a bad temper during pregnancy, so she has to go along with it.So Huo Xianfeng was stunned for a few seconds, and then nodded.
"Well, everything you said is right, I believe you."
Jiang Ci: "..."
He grabbed the clothes and pants from Huo Xianfeng's arms, then shrank into the quilt and put them on as quickly as possible, and quickly changed the subject.
"Then what...take the two cards and the Forbidden Abyss from yesterday."
"Um."
Huo Xianfeng didn't move. He rolled his tail and "took it" over.
Jiang Ci: "..."
In a sense, Huo Xianfeng's tail is really convenient when not used as a weapon.
"Because you don't have official imperial citizenship and can't open a new bank account, so I can only transfer the money in the two cards to my personal account, my salary and the money my father left me.They’re all in there too.”
"oh."
Huo Xianfeng counted a series of zeros. The first time, he thought he counted them wrong. Then he counted them again and found that even billions were not enough.
The Jiang family has been a wealthy family since the alliance era.The wealth accumulated was countless, so after the Dawn Legion left the alliance, most of the military expenses were supported by Jiang Jinsheng alone.
After the founding of the empire, basically all military industries belonged to the Jiang family, and in order to support the development of other industries, the Jiang family basically allocated money to become shareholders in all walks of life.
Later, although more than half of the military industry was handed over, there were still many assets in other industries.Even when Ye Shu built the underground city on Tiandong Star, Jiang Jinsheng secretly funded a large amount of money.Before his death, he had already arranged management personnel for all the properties, so Jiang Ci inherited a lot of shares and did not participate in management. He could squander it for several lifetimes just by relying on annual dividends.It is no exaggeration to say that he is the second generation of the richest people in the empire.
At this time, the top rich second generation of the empire took Huo Xianfeng's hand and put the black ring on him.
"I have also bound my personal account to Forbidden Abyss. You can use it as you like in the future."
Generally speaking, the payment method for citizens of the empire is to use optical brains, but for those like them who have S-class or above mechas, the AI in the mechas can already replace the role of optical brains.
Jiang Ci still remembered that Huo Xianfeng cheated him out of money when he was at Tiandong Star. He felt angry at that time, but now he feels so pitiful.At that time, Huo Xianfeng was still picking up garbage and selling it at the recycling station. He drank industrial liquor. For money, he had to accommodate himself, who had such a bad temper at the time. Even before he found his own tribe, his clothes could only rub against his.
In short, everything can show that Huo Xianfeng is very poor, and he now has to raise an army. If Mingcheng hadn't happened to be captured, a bunch of bugs would have starved to death.
Probably because he had been with Nora and Huo Xianfeng for a long time, Jiang Ci now began to develop a filter for the ferocious-looking Zerg.He thought about it for a while, and then calculated it carefully.
"When the war is over, if you want to occupy Holy Dew as a new base for the Zerg, it shouldn't be a big problem. It's just that there aren't many minerals on this planet. I still have a dozen small mineral planets under my name, which should be enough by then.Feed your people.”
"……good."
Huo Xianfeng nodded. He had always known that Jiang Ci should have a good family background and be very rich, but now his perception of Jiang Ci's wealth had changed from the one he had taken advantage of in the past to that of a rich man from a wealthy family.
He thought for a while and began to explain his assets.
"The Zerg are self-sufficient in food, clothing, housing and transportation, and are distributed according to status levels. In addition, they do not communicate with other races. Therefore, the Zerg does not have the same currency system as humans. Theoretically, everything belonging to the Zerg belongs to the king.of."
Huo Xianfeng actually felt that he should still have a few planets, but they were not in this star field. However, after three hundred years, he still didn't know what the insect star was like, so he didn't say anything.
Jiang Ci extracted the key information. The Zerg has no currency system, and everything in the Zerg belongs to the king.so it is……
——Huo Xianfeng has no money to hammer.
Jiang Ci nodded in understanding,
"Well, it doesn't matter, my money will be your money from now on."
If it weren't for Huo Xianfeng's possible alpha self-esteem, Jiang Ci would have wanted to say, "It doesn't matter, I will support you from now on."
Tuk Tuk——
There was a knock on the door outside.
Jiang Ci watched Huo Xianfeng open the door, said something to the messenger at the door, and then turned around.
"Pei Changyun has something to do, I'll go out."
"good."
Jiang Ci nodded.Since His Majesty the Emperor did not ask him to come with him, he would not go.Jiang Ci can still distinguish between public and private matters.Not to mention, he has other things.
Watching Huo Xianfeng leave, Jiang Ci subconsciously touched the pendant around his neck, but found nothing. He rubbed his swollen chest and started looking for his mecha.
"White Pond?"
At this time, the pendant in the corner of the door floated faintly, and his tone was resentful,
"Ah Ci, have you finally remembered me?"
"……Feel sorry."
Jiang Ci stood up and took out the electronic board and connected it to Bai Ze.
"Log in to the army's internal system and help me find information."
"Ding, personal account login successful."
Bai Ze projected the page of the internal system and found that Jiang Ci was inquiring about various regulations and rules in the army.The Major General quickly browsed through the densely packed regulations, seeming to be looking for something seriously.
Bai Ze felt strange,
"Ah Ci, what are you looking for suddenly?"
"Hmm... Huo Xianfeng's situation should not pass the ordinary political review, so we have to check in advance to see if there are any special channels."
Bai Ze didn't understand: "Ah? What kind of special passage?"
Jiang Ci pursed her lips, but couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.
"——Marriage application report."
White Pond:"……"
So you think of me because of him, right?
Chapter 132: My Wife Is Rich as a Country (Second Update)
Inside the aircraft carrier prison, Zhou Jiuyao was interrogating Cecilia.
There was a layer of special glass between them, and they sat facing each other.Cecilia's hands and feet were locked by mechanical locks. She changed into prisoner's clothes, but she still couldn't hide her superior figure.
However, becoming a prisoner did not seem to be a particularly bad thing for Cecilia. She still had the same enchanting posture and was playing with her beautiful nails leisurely.
"I'm not interested in you, Zhou Xiaoniao. Ask Pei Changyun to come in person."
Zhou Jiuya had a cold look on his face.
"Do you think you have the capital to negotiate terms?"
"Why not? Besides, is the secret I told you so important?"
Cecilia held the side of her face with one hand and drew circles on the table casually.
"The once beloved Saint has been imprisoned for more than two hundred years. Whose fault do you think it is?"
Speaking of this, she paused with her fingertips, and the lazy smile on her face suddenly turned cold.
"Jiang Jinsheng, a mere B-level alpha, clearly doesn't have the ability to protect her but he still wants to provoke her."
Back then, the Saint broke with the Pope and was imprisoned. As an apostle, Cecilia was naturally coveted by all kinds of people.Because she is an omega.And it's Class A.In such a difficult environment, Cecilia grew up rapidly.It took her more than two hundred years to finally carve out her own place in the church where the jungle prevailed.
She had tried every possible means and worked hard to repair the relationship between the Pope and the Saint.Even with little success, the jail order has not been lifted.But at least Bai Min was alive and her heart was beating.
And Jiang Jinsheng's so-called rescue caused her beloved Mingxin to die.
"Do you think their original plan was really perfect?"
Cecilia grinned in a very weird smile,
"The Pope's hands and eyes are open to the sky. There is nothing in the Holy White Tower that he wants to know but cannot know. Every believer, and maybe even more things you can't think of..."
"—It's all his eyes."
As she spoke, she suddenly opened her collar, revealing a large area of fair skin on her chest.
This woman's action was so unexpected that Zhou Jiuya was shocked and immediately looked away as if he was electrocuted.However, Cecilia was wearing a low-cut sling underneath. Apart from being sexy and beautiful, there was nothing vulgar about it.
Even though Zhou Jiuya quickly looked away, from the corner of his eye, he still caught a glimpse of the large blood-gold mark on the woman's chest that spread to her collarbone.
Before that, it should have been golden.
Zhou Jiuya frowned.
"you……"
"Oh, it's so rare for an old man to show such innocence."
Cecilia winked at him with a coquettish expression,
"Well, it's Leah's fault. I forgot that the Legion Master is still single. It seems that he hasn't come into contact with any omega in so many years..."
Speaking of this, Cecilia seemed to suddenly think of something surprising. She stared at the stiff man opposite, with a face full of narrow-mindedness and gossip.
"Zhou Xiaoniao, you're not over three hundred years old...you're still a baby bird, right?"
The legion leader was hit by an arrow in his knee: "..."
Following Ye Shu's stingy attack, Zhou Jiuya once again encountered malice from all over the world.
But the fact is indeed true. Ever since Pei Changyun organized a blind date a long time ago, he has never seen a normal, delicate and cute omega again.
Zhou Jiuya, on the other hand, is a straight-A, with a straight sexual orientation toward an omega, but he has no contact with the army or on the battlefield.In addition, his level is too high, and it is difficult to find a suitable pheromone match.But the most important thing is that he is Pei Changyun's confidant and the main commander of the imperial army. Once he really marries an omega, he will inevitably spend a lot of time on his family.
Zhou Jiuya was very busy. He was so busy that he regretted not being able to take good care of the young Jiang Ci. Naturally, he had no time to consider personal issues.
So one deal after another, one after another, one after another, and now we are alone.In addition, the legion leader has always kept himself clean and self-sufficient. He takes care of his physical needs by himself and won't look for some beautiful betas that don't need to be marked.So he became an old chick over three hundred years old.
Zhou Jiuya closed his eyes and decided to change the topic, but at this time Cecilia had already spoken first,
"It's better to ask Pei Changyun to come."
She smiled and directly suppressed Zhou Jiuya's refusal, and said meaningfully,
"Do you also want to listen to the whispers His Highness Huo Chao told his wife?"
"?!!"
The word wife shocked Zhou Jiuya. It took him a long time to react before he realized that the other person was referring to Pei Changyun.
"..."
Huo Chao's wife... Pei Changyun...
Although he had learned about the relationship between the Marshal and His Majesty the Emperor a few days ago, Zhou Jiuya still could not accept it calmly.At this moment, his scalp felt numb.
After a few minutes, the legion commander's brain quickly calmed down. He looked at Cecilia for a few seconds. Of course, he knew that Cecilia's words were 90% false.Because Huo Chao would not leave a message for her, but Cecilia kept asking to see Pei Changyun, and what he wanted to say was probably related to that person.
So Zhou Jiuya thought for a moment, took a step back, turned on his headset and told his subordinates outside,
"Go and invite your Majesty to come."
"yes."
At the same time, the diligent Emperor is still dealing with the affairs of Heng Yun Star.Last night's celebration party was nothing special to him. Pei Changyun had never been a teetotaler.
"Your Majesty, your breakfast."
The captain of the guard brought carefully prepared breakfast, but in fact it was just a better quality nutritional solution.
The Heng Yun star is also a life star. The seeds and animals brought from the earth can already start to breed. Therefore, in addition to the nutrient solution, it can also ensure a diet similar to that on the earth.But for Pei Changyun, he is too busy and only needs enough energy to support his work.
"okay."
Pei Changyun finished the drink in one gulp and motioned for him to go down.
"Your Majesty, you only slept for three hours last night. Do you want to rest...?"
"Need not."
Pei Changyun rubbed his eyebrows. He was just reading the report from Hengyun Star.Successfully suppressing the rebellion of the Third Legion does not mean that all dangerous factors have been eliminated.Moreover, the disappearance of the Holy White Tower also made him very concerned.
Now that he himself and the main force of the First Legion are on Saint Dew, it is possible that the church will turn around and attack Heng Yun.Although Pei Changyun didn't think that the other party had the strength to directly take over Heng Yun Star, but if they really had to fight to the death, the empire would definitely be hit hard.Therefore, the top priority is to find the Holy White Tower and make all defenses and arrangements for the capital star...
"His Majesty"
At this time, an alpha officer stood at the door,
"The female prisoner wants to see you."
His Majesty the Emperor didn't even raise his head: "No, let Zhou Jiuya go and interrogate."
He had nothing to say to Cecilia.
The officer was embarrassed and whispered,
"But, she said it was about...Marshal Huo Chao."
"..."
Pei Changyun made a move.
Ten minutes later, Pei Changyun sat opposite Cecilia. Zhou Jiuyao did not participate. He was guarding outside.The soundproofing here is very well done and the recording system is turned off.
In other words, only Pei Changyun and Cecilia knew the content of the subsequent interrogation.
His Majesty the Emperor looked at her intently for a few seconds, and his eyes swept over the holy mark spreading up on her neck. It was red gold and getting redder, like a gorgeous flower branch growing up.
His Majesty the Emperor moved his eyes away, his voice was steady and calm,
"Say it."
"I thought you wouldn't come."
Cecilia tilted her head and smiled sweetly,
"After all, you have stayed in Hengyun Star for the past three hundred years, like a turtle shrinking into its shell without even showing your head."
"..."
Pei Changyun didn't answer.
——Because it is.
Since the earth became a death star, Pei Changyun has never left Hengyun Star.Later, the alliance was completely overthrown, the empire grew stronger and stronger, and its territory began to expand crazily, and he never left.Even when countless people went to Earth to pay homage to Huo Chao, even the Pope went there, Pei Changyun never went there even once.This is also one of the evidences used by those who previously slandered him.
For three hundred years, Pei Changyun has been guarding Hengyun Star.
The imperial dictatorship system gave him supreme power and also made him the heart and brain of the country.Therefore, Pei Changyun cannot be in any danger.Because if he dies, the Illusion God Religion will invade again without any scruples, just like they did when they controlled the alliance.So he can't die.
"Yes, you can't die."
Seeing that the other party didn't answer, Cecilia nodded to herself,
"After all, Your Majesty, you are dead and have no heir."
"..."
Pei Changyun stared at her coldly.
"You came to me just to talk nonsense?"
"I haven't seen you for so long, your attitude is really cold, Xiao Yunyun~"
"..."
Pei Changyun tapped behind his ear and told the guard,
"Go and borrow Chengyue and let the best mecha technician change the outer coating."
Chengyue's exterior machine coating was painted by Bai Min and Cecilia.
"yes!"
The guard was about to leave, but suddenly he heard a sharp alarm from the mechanical lock.
boom!
Cecilia slammed her fist on the table, like a lioness that was suddenly enraged.
"Pei Changyun, how dare you!"
"Why don't you dare?"
His Majesty the Emperor raised his eyebrows, then turned his head, his emerald eyes extremely cold.
"So capture Cecilia, can you speak properly now?"
"..."
The woman stared at him coldly, then sat back down again.
"Ha, threaten me... Pei Changyun, you think you're hiding your tail well."
The tail refers to the handle and weakness that can be used to threaten.
Just like Pei Changyun can threaten him with Bai Min, Cecilia can also threaten Huo Chao.
"No need to hide."
His tone was calm,
"already dead."
And unlike Bai Min who left Cheng Yue for Cecilia, Pei Changyun had nothing, so he had no tail, no handle, and nothing related to that person that could make him threatened.
"..."
Cecilia was silent for a few seconds, then spoke,
"What if I said, that person can survive."
"Don't use the same move on me twice."
Pei Changyun lowered his head and straightened his sleeves with a cold expression.
"It's just a fake, it's dirty my hands."
"Oh... you don't believe it. It seems that Zhou Jiuya has a lot of things that he hasn't told you. Even His Majesty the Pope has been investigating this secret for more than two hundred years. It's normal that you don't know."
Cecilia nodded in understanding. She held the side of her face with one hand and showed a meaningful smile.
"Well, our Highness Huo Chao did not die in a nuclear explosion."
She looked at Pei Changyun, whose body froze for an instant, and tilted her head in his suddenly cold gaze.
"I should have died in that nuclear explosion..."
"——It's Huo Xianfeng."
At the same time, Huo Xianfeng was flipping through the study materials and highlighted the knowledge about omega's milk increase during pregnancy and subsequent lactation.However, it seemed that he saw something he couldn't understand. Huo Xianfeng sat by the bed and asked questions seriously.
"Jiang Ci, why does it only say that during pregnancy, the omega uses pheromones to soothe the alpha, and nothing else?"
The Major General, who was shocked by the breastfeeding period, came to his senses, wrapped himself in a quilt and came over to take a look and nodded.
"Yes, because after every omega gets pregnant, the empire will immediately assign professional nannies to take care of the whole process. They usually choose female betas with rich experience and gentle personalities. So alphas only need to be comforted by pheromones regularly."
"..."
Huo Xianfeng couldn't understand.
Although he understood human society, the matter of giving birth to offspring was of little help to him, so he did not study it in depth at the time. But now that he looked at it, he found it very strange, and he couldn't help but confirm it again.
"So, Alpha has no other duty of care? Even after the cub is born, it will be taken care of by Omega and some kind of nanny?"
"right."
Jiang Ci nodded.He also had a nanny when he was a child, but he didn't like it. He spent more time in the laboratory with his father and Xiao X, but then He Zhun came. Jiang Ci deliberately made trouble in the laboratory in order to attract his father's attention. Jiang JinSheng Wenwen tried to reason with her many times but failed, and then he was banned from entering.
Looking back now, it seems that no alpha can take care of an omega like Huo Xianfeng, and it can be seen from Marshal Huo Chao's previous star blog that Huo Xianfeng is even good at taking care of children.
"Are you Zerg different?"
There are only male and female genders in the Zerg race, and it seems strange that Huo Xianfeng, as the king, can take care of children.Jiang Ci's thirst for knowledge came over. He ate while holding Can Guan, rolled up the quilt and moved over, stared at Huo Xianfeng and asked,
"Then what is your general process for raising cubs?"
Huo Xianfeng thought for a while and replied,
"When the female of the advanced insect race is responsible for gestating the insect eggs, the male must be responsible for fulfilling the obligation of full care. Including protection, feeding, taking care of emotions, and preparing everything to deal with all possible accidents. After the eggs are laid,It’s a recovery period for the female body, so the male is responsible for incubating the eggs and taking care of the young.”
"Such a clear and engraved instinct in the gender gene can maintain the stability of the partnership to the greatest extent and improve the survival rate of the cubs. We confirm that there is no concept of 'marriage' in a partnership, nor does it exist in similar relationships.It is said that an omega gives birth to a child for an alpha. The cubs are the cubs of both partners. In the Zerg’s understanding, it is natural that both parties should contribute and raise them together.”
"..."
Do you have a duty of care to your pregnant partner?Still have to hatch eggs and take care of the babies???
Jiang Ci was stunned when he heard this.
"But Huo Xianfeng, aren't you the king?"
Do you have to do this for such a top position?
"Yes, I am."
Huo Xianfeng nodded.
"But this is determined by gender genes and has nothing to do with whether it is a king or not. The king of the Zerg race is not limited to gender. If a female is the king, then she is the one responsible for breeding the eggs."
But Huo Xianfeng is a male, so he has to fulfill his obligation to take care of his wife when she is pregnant with insect eggs.Because of this, he didn't quite understand that human beings' so-called care for alpha was just pheromone comfort, and what comfort was, to put it bluntly, physical intimacy and bonding, how could it be considered care.But he went through all the information and found that in human cognition, alphas do not need to be able to take care of their partners.
Of course, there are a few alphas who will take care of their wives during pregnancy, but some small things that should be obligations in Huo Xianfeng's eyes will be taken out and warmly praised by everyone in human society.
"It is normal and natural for an omega to give birth to a child, but for an alpha to take care of a pregnant partner, in the eyes of the public, he has put in a lot of effort, which is a great thing that deserves to be praised... So Jiang Ci, don't you think this is strange?"
Moreover, the omega responsible for nurturing offspring in humans is still very weak, and is completely inferior to the strong women of the advanced Zerg.
"..."
Jiang Ci was stunned. He felt that Huo Xianfeng's words were so special, but also very... very reasonable.He was silent for a moment, nodded,
"It's...a little strange."
He looked down at the jars in his arms and suddenly realized something. Then he raised his head and asked Huo Xianfeng,
"So yesterday, your temperature started to rise, you showed aggression towards outsiders, and you were a little...sluggish, was it because you had begun to instinctively fulfill your duty of care?"
"right."
Huo Xianfeng nodded, then he was silent for a moment and replied,
"But...this state is not instinctive. I will adjust quickly. Tomorrow at the latest."
"No, no, no, no hurry, no hurry, take your time."
Jiang Ci couldn't hold back his smile. The more he looked at Huo Xianfeng in this state, the more cute he felt. He even couldn't help but go up and kiss him.
"Take it easy."
Wang, who was kissed by his wife again: "..."
In the past, Jiang Ci rarely took the initiative to kiss him, but it seemed different now that she was pregnant.Huo Xianfeng silently made a note, adding one more item to the omega's pregnancy habit:
——Like kissing him.
Wang's lips curled up.
Yeah, that's a nice hobby.
Jiang Ci finished all the "jellybeans" in the jar, and finally felt seventy-eight percent full.Although he didn't know how much energy these were, Jiang Ci calculated the nutrient solution he just drank and found that it was originally enough for him for three months.Therefore, it is speculated that the energy of these light yellow gummy things made of honey is definitely an extremely exaggerated number.
At this time, Jiang Ci was finally able to empathize with Huo Xianfeng.At that time, Jiang Ci thought it was an exaggeration when the other party ate nearly a month's worth of food at once in the cave.Now he felt that Huo Xianfeng had to endure a lot silently by himself.
It turns out that it wasn't that he didn't have any pregnancy reactions before, but that he was delayed.
"Will I always eat this much in the future?"
"Well, maybe a little more."
Huo Xianfeng helped Jiang Ci put the jar aside.
"The light of the egg cubs was not bright enough before because of the lack of energy. I speculate that maybe it is because you are not carrying a fetus but an insect egg, so your body has not yet reacted to the pregnancy. The mother's body and the insect egg will affect each other. Therefore.The mental power threshold that has been skyrocketing before must also be affected by pregnancy."
Just like some human pregnant women will grow taller after pregnancy, it is not impossible for Jiang Ci's mental power threshold to increase.
Huo Xianfeng's IQ was still online, and he quickly clarified all the previous problems on the first night he learned that his wife was pregnant.
"...So that's it."
Jiang Ci immediately understood.The Zerg are much stronger than humans, so when he was pregnant, he did not enter the weak stage like a normal omega, but moved closer to the Zerg.
Huo Xianfeng brought the clothes over, then lifted the quilt and put it on his wife.
"Get up when you're full. Let's go find Dr. Wen and ask about your lactation period and other related matters."
Jiang Ci: "..."
It was okay not to mention lactation, but when he mentioned it, he suddenly felt that his chest seemed to be a little swollen.
Omega milk will increase during pregnancy, regardless of men or women. A few will start to increase during the third or fourth month of pregnancy, and most will occur after the seventh or eighth month.After delivery, omega will feed the baby, so milk will also be produced.
This is common sense, Jiang Ci knows it, but his subconscious doesn't want to face it.Because he had seen a breastfeeding omega, and it was so embarrassing.
"No!"
Jiang Ci took Huo Xianfeng's hand and spoke very fast,
"No need to go, I've studied it, I know everything, I can handle it myself!"
"...?"
Huo Xianfeng looked at him steadily for a few seconds, then reached out to button his shirt.
"What are you going to do about it?"
"..."
Jiang Ci looked at Huo Xianfeng intently, suddenly feeling that he had suddenly transformed from the peacock with his tail open some time ago into an extremely gentle and virtuous husband.But before Jiang Ci could think of how to reply, he suddenly felt the other person's hand touch his chest, then he rubbed it tentatively, and then squeezed it.
"It seems, better than last night..."
Jiang Ci instantly covered his mouth, and immediately took out Huo Xianfeng's hand.
"No! These are chest muscles! They are chest muscles!!! I have been training harder recently, so... my chest muscles are better trained."
The genes of omegas naturally determine that they will be weak, so Jiang Ci has been training hard for more than ten years, but he only has some muscle lines and has not been able to develop the exaggerated muscles like those alpha officers.
Huo Xianfeng's logical thinking is very clear. He believes that it is impossible for Jiang Ci to suddenly develop full chest muscles recently.
"oh……"
However, Jiang Ci has a bad temper during pregnancy, so she has to go along with it.So Huo Xianfeng was stunned for a few seconds, and then nodded.
"Well, everything you said is right, I believe you."
Jiang Ci: "..."
He grabbed the clothes and pants from Huo Xianfeng's arms, then shrank into the quilt and put them on as quickly as possible, and quickly changed the subject.
"Then what...take the two cards and the Forbidden Abyss from yesterday."
"Um."
Huo Xianfeng didn't move. He rolled his tail and "took it" over.
Jiang Ci: "..."
In a sense, Huo Xianfeng's tail is really convenient when not used as a weapon.
"Because you don't have official imperial citizenship and can't open a new bank account, so I can only transfer the money in the two cards to my personal account, my salary and the money my father left me.They’re all in there too.”
"oh."
Huo Xianfeng counted a series of zeros. The first time, he thought he counted them wrong. Then he counted them again and found that even billions were not enough.
The Jiang family has been a wealthy family since the alliance era.The wealth accumulated was countless, so after the Dawn Legion left the alliance, most of the military expenses were supported by Jiang Jinsheng alone.
After the founding of the empire, basically all military industries belonged to the Jiang family, and in order to support the development of other industries, the Jiang family basically allocated money to become shareholders in all walks of life.
Later, although more than half of the military industry was handed over, there were still many assets in other industries.Even when Ye Shu built the underground city on Tiandong Star, Jiang Jinsheng secretly funded a large amount of money.Before his death, he had already arranged management personnel for all the properties, so Jiang Ci inherited a lot of shares and did not participate in management. He could squander it for several lifetimes just by relying on annual dividends.It is no exaggeration to say that he is the second generation of the richest people in the empire.
At this time, the top rich second generation of the empire took Huo Xianfeng's hand and put the black ring on him.
"I have also bound my personal account to Forbidden Abyss. You can use it as you like in the future."
Generally speaking, the payment method for citizens of the empire is to use optical brains, but for those like them who have S-class or above mechas, the AI in the mechas can already replace the role of optical brains.
Jiang Ci still remembered that Huo Xianfeng cheated him out of money when he was at Tiandong Star. He felt angry at that time, but now he feels so pitiful.At that time, Huo Xianfeng was still picking up garbage and selling it at the recycling station. He drank industrial liquor. For money, he had to accommodate himself, who had such a bad temper at the time. Even before he found his own tribe, his clothes could only rub against his.
In short, everything can show that Huo Xianfeng is very poor, and he now has to raise an army. If Mingcheng hadn't happened to be captured, a bunch of bugs would have starved to death.
Probably because he had been with Nora and Huo Xianfeng for a long time, Jiang Ci now began to develop a filter for the ferocious-looking Zerg.He thought about it for a while, and then calculated it carefully.
"When the war is over, if you want to occupy Holy Dew as a new base for the Zerg, it shouldn't be a big problem. It's just that there aren't many minerals on this planet. I still have a dozen small mineral planets under my name, which should be enough by then.Feed your people.”
"……good."
Huo Xianfeng nodded. He had always known that Jiang Ci should have a good family background and be very rich, but now his perception of Jiang Ci's wealth had changed from the one he had taken advantage of in the past to that of a rich man from a wealthy family.
He thought for a while and began to explain his assets.
"The Zerg are self-sufficient in food, clothing, housing and transportation, and are distributed according to status levels. In addition, they do not communicate with other races. Therefore, the Zerg does not have the same currency system as humans. Theoretically, everything belonging to the Zerg belongs to the king.of."
Huo Xianfeng actually felt that he should still have a few planets, but they were not in this star field. However, after three hundred years, he still didn't know what the insect star was like, so he didn't say anything.
Jiang Ci extracted the key information. The Zerg has no currency system, and everything in the Zerg belongs to the king.so it is……
——Huo Xianfeng has no money to hammer.
Jiang Ci nodded in understanding,
"Well, it doesn't matter, my money will be your money from now on."
If it weren't for Huo Xianfeng's possible alpha self-esteem, Jiang Ci would have wanted to say, "It doesn't matter, I will support you from now on."
Tuk Tuk——
There was a knock on the door outside.
Jiang Ci watched Huo Xianfeng open the door, said something to the messenger at the door, and then turned around.
"Pei Changyun has something to do, I'll go out."
"good."
Jiang Ci nodded.Since His Majesty the Emperor did not ask him to come with him, he would not go.Jiang Ci can still distinguish between public and private matters.Not to mention, he has other things.
Watching Huo Xianfeng leave, Jiang Ci subconsciously touched the pendant around his neck, but found nothing. He rubbed his swollen chest and started looking for his mecha.
"White Pond?"
At this time, the pendant in the corner of the door floated faintly, and his tone was resentful,
"Ah Ci, have you finally remembered me?"
"……Feel sorry."
Jiang Ci stood up and took out the electronic board and connected it to Bai Ze.
"Log in to the army's internal system and help me find information."
"Ding, personal account login successful."
Bai Ze projected the page of the internal system and found that Jiang Ci was inquiring about various regulations and rules in the army.The Major General quickly browsed through the densely packed regulations, seeming to be looking for something seriously.
Bai Ze felt strange,
"Ah Ci, what are you looking for suddenly?"
"Hmm... Huo Xianfeng's situation should not pass the ordinary political review, so we have to check in advance to see if there are any special channels."
Bai Ze didn't understand: "Ah? What kind of special passage?"
Jiang Ci pursed her lips, but couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.
"——Marriage application report."
White Pond:"……"
So you think of me because of him, right?
