Kyle received Helu’s body in the underground laboratory of Olympus. He bent down and put on gloves as he carefully stroked all parts of the corpse. Breaux couldn’t stand the other person’s touching the corpse and frowned, “Does this guy really have the first-generation God Sentinel gene in him? Don’t be swindled by that old woman.”
Kyle didn’t speak. His fingers lingered on a cross-shaped wound near Helu’s heart. After a while, he said coldly, “He underwent an implantation surgery, embedding a sealed tube containing the genes into his own body.”
“…” Breaux shuddered. “That’s truly… a bold move.”
Kyle smiled, “Helu is not at all as weak and incompetent as the rumours say. He is a great emperor. Whether he decisively abandoned Olympus to protect the Empire’s guide or created Moschery, every step he takes shows the calmness of an Emperor—courageous, ruthlessly sacrificial yet noble in dedication.”
Even if Kyle said this, Breaux obviously didn’t agree. He curled his lips in disdain and just asked with concern, “What should we do now?”
Kyle didn’t answer. He took the scalpel and carefully cut open Helu’s chest. When he touched the sealed tube, Kyle’s expression couldn’t help but be moved, “…He hid it in the heart.”
Breaux’s expression turned grim, “Is he crazy?!”
“I don’t know.” Kyle frowned. He also found it very unbelievable. The airtight tube was only half the size of a little finger, containing a few extremely fine black strands of hair. He squinted at it in the light for a moment, “It’s a little strange. We need to do a test first to check whose DNA it belongs to.”
Breaux said bitterly, “Not his own.”
Kyle shook his head, “No, Helu’s hair is silver.” He glanced at the person in the cryogenic chamber, “But I remember that his hair was very long…”
“Being an Emperor is so hard. It’s possible that all your hair will fall out.” Breaux mocked, and he glanced at the blood-stained sealed tube with disgust, “Please clean this thing up. It looks really disgusting.”
Bixi was wearing a camouflage uniform. She put on wristbands and carefully put her long silver hair into a hat.
Qin Yun’s expression didn’t convey agreement, but he spoke with as much patience as he could muster, “Would you wait here, please? I promise you, I will bring Helu’s body back.”
“It’s not just about the remains.” Bixi put on her military boots neatly and tied her belt, which made her body surprisingly petite and thin, “An SSS level guide belongs to the commander level. I should be on the battlefield; there is a place for me there.”
Qin Yun opened his mouth, and he realised that even if they were not related by blood, Bixi was the one who raised him. There was always a bit of her stubbornness and perseverance in his character.
“Don’t look like you’ve been abandoned.” Bixi pinched Qin Yun’s face jokingly, “My little guy, be strong.”
Qin Yun was silent. He held Bixi’s hand and was so sad that he couldn’t speak.
Bixi gently stroked the top of his hair. She looked at Qin Yun and said, “You have never asked me who your biological parents are… Aren’t you curious?”
“Maybe before, but not now.” Qin Yun said seriously, “You are the one who raised me. I’m very happy; having you is enough.”
Bixi laughed. She secretly wiped away the tears that overflowed from the corners of her eyes, stretched out her hands and hugged her son.
In order to save time, Moschery decided to divide his troops into two groups. Arthur, as the vanguard, was responsible for tearing apart Eta’s defensive fortress, followed by Skarter, who would then lead the army to attack Olympus directly.
“Chen Xiao is in charge of the raid. Are the Star Thief gang here?” Moschery had already changed into field uniforms. He bumped fists with Arthur and Skarter and jumped onto the wing with ease.
Qin Yun was checking the base below. He looked up and saw Moschery looking at him.
“What are you doing?” Qin Yun tilted his head, “Don’t stand so high… I can’t even see your face clearly.”
Moschery didn’t obey. He took a moment and replied, “I like it.”
Qin Yun: “?”
Moschery: “Because I can see you looking at me seriously.”
“…” Qin Yun said helplessly, “I am seeing you carefully every day.”
“It’s not enough.” Moschery jumped off the wing and rubbed the back of Qin Yun’s head roughly, “Your gaze should be more intense.” He paused and added, “You have no idea how I usually look at you.”
Qin Yun: “…How do you look?”
Moschery thought about it seriously, “The gaze of wanting to catch you anytime, anywhere.”
Qin Yun: “…”
Almost all the Star Thief’s members were dispatched. Qin Yun met Yaya, Ali and the twin brothers again. Moschery greeted them expressionlessly and faced his comrades who had been together through life and death with an expression of ‘you two liars’. Qin Yun could only stay and explain with a headache.
“We were in a special position at the time…” Qin Yun tried hard to think of an excuse, “We had to complete a mission…”
Ali frowned, “Were you married then?”
“…” Qin Yun choked, “No, not yet…”
Yaya gestured disbelievingly.
Ali translated, “He said that you smelled like the Emperor at that time…you had already made the final mark, right?”
Qin Yun: “…No.”
The twin brothers looked at each other, and the elder brother said, “But you have a good understanding.”
The younger brother nodded, “Sure enough, they are destined to be a match made in heaven?”
Qin Yun coughed awkwardly, “Y-you can put it that way…?”
Yaya snorted, and he gestured quickly.
Ali agreed: “Don’t show affection in front of us single dogs. You are so shameless.”
Qin Yun: “…”
Skarter’s troops were all excellent sentinels with extensive frontline experience. Most of them were very familiar with Qin Yun. Elberna even gave Qin Yun a hug directly in front of the Emperor.
Moschery squinted his eyes and stared at Elberna’s hand on Qin Yun’s shoulder, who was still reliving the comradeship without realising it…
“I think how good you were on the front line at that time. You were strong and durable.” Elberna sighed, “The high-level guides that were arranged later were like canaries… One guide and two Sentinels for protection, always crying, such a hassle.”
Qin Yun twitched the corner of his mouth, and Moschery glanced at him with interest.
Elberna: “Low-level guides are still better. I’m even thinking of proposing to Sennas, but you folks in the low-level guide circle are like mysterious creatures. It’s not easy to marry one.”
Qin Yun glanced at Sennas, who was offering paramecium for everyone to poke his belly in the distance and was speechless. He could only cough and ask, “Have you told him about this idea?”
“Talked about it.” Elberna frowned, “But he said that the Paramecium family is very large, and marrying him must be approved by all the Paramecia.” Sentinel paused and looked at Qin Yun with a hopeful look, “Didn’t you have a very good relationship with him at that time? Do you think there is hope for me?”
…Of course Qin Yun didn’t know if Elberna had any hope. After all, joking aside, how big is a single-cell population?! Excluding those that were not registered, every time there was a gathering in the low-level guide circle, the place was full of moths, and people could drown!
“We were actually worried that you wouldn’t be able to get married in the early days.” Elberna said sincerely. He looked at Moschery with admiration, “Although Qin Yun looks a bit rugged on the outside, tall and not soft enough, quite well-built muscles…basically, back then, no one would think of fvcking him, but many wished to be pinned down by him.” The more Elberna spoke, the more he felt sorry for His Majesty the Emperor, “You have worked really hard.”
Qin Yun: “…”
“It’s good to be firm.” Moschery chuckled, “Pert buttocks feel good in the hands.”
Because he had made the final mark, Moschery’s consciousness cloud was very stable and would not give people too much pressure because of his inability to control it. Qin Yun watched him naturally stay in the sentinel circle, although he was still silent most of the time. But Qin Yun could see that he was in a good mood.
“It’s really a sight I’ve never seen before.” Lin Dongliang sighed at the side, “Because His Majesty couldn’t control the pressure before, it was difficult to blend in even when he was with us.”
Qin Yun didn’t speak. He looked at his sentinel from a distance with gentle eyes. Moschery seemed to feel something and turned back to look at him.
Qin Yun: “?”
Moschery raised his eyebrows expressionlessly. He clenched his fist and beat his chest, then raised it and stretched it in the direction of Qin Yun.
Qin Yun understood. He smiled and made the same move as Moschery—the two fist-bumped like brothers.
“I love you.” His Majesty the Emperor mouthed, kissed his fist, and finally tapped his heart.
Qin Yun didn’t understand. He looked at Moschery, who was about to board the Imperial Starship, “What does that mean?”
Moschery did not answer directly. He stood on the Imperial Starship and looked down at all the soldiers who were about to go to the battlefield. His eyes slowly swept across their faces.
“From today on, you will all be the heroes of the Empire.” Moschery’s voice was deep and clear, “You will protect the land under your feet, protect your relatives and children, and protect your loved ones.”
The generals raised their heads and listened quietly, with solemn expressions.
Moschery pressed his fist against his chest, “If we return in triumph, the scars and medals will become our glory. If, unfortunately, we fall in battle…” The Emperor’s eyes passed through the crowd and looked gently into Qin Yun’s eyes, “My flesh and blood will rest in a foreign land with my love, while my soul will traverse the vast expanse of the stars and galaxies, returning to the side of my beloved, never to be alone.”
