108 “(Quick Travel) Meat-eating Journey” Chapter 107

Chapter 107 Science Fiction‧Prostitution Imperial Major General (1)

In the Kepler Port, the huge interstellar orbital warship was parked quietly at the dock. The hull of the ship was like a majestic mountain, glowing with an iron-gray metallic glow in the early morning sunlight.

This is the most ordinary day in the space city of Xuanning. This city located in the moon’s low-Earth orbit is sparsely populated. Except for the supply ships passing by along the way, only the troops stationed here will stop for a while.

The same is obviously true for the ship that is moored in the port. Under the command of the AI, the robotic arm continuously delivers boxes of supplies into the cabin.Several non-commissioned officers in black military uniforms were standing not far away, seemingly waiting for someone.

“Oh, she’s here.” The taller young sergeant raised his head and pointed at the tall figure walking towards him.

She was a woman in her early twenties. Her straight and solemn military uniform made her soft facial features slightly sharper. She had black hair and black eyes. Although she was a beauty at a young age, the pride exuding from her body made people dare not underestimate her.

The two noncommissioned officers gave her a standard military salute: “Lieutenant Ye, good day.”

“Good morning.” The woman’s gaze swept over the faces of the two people. Although it was the first time they met, she still called out their names accurately, “Corporal Hao Yang, Corporal Le Yiwen.”

This woman is naturally Ye Xuan. She graduated with first place from the Nebula Empire’s top military academy. With her outstanding performance, she was promoted from corporal to lieutenant in two years. She worked hard and worked hard. Now, she finally stood in front of the battleship she had dreamed of.

After saying hello, Ye Xuan looked at the ship in front of her.The battleship can be seen as far as the eye can see, and two powerful characters – Xihe – are engraved on the hull.

Xihe, the ace battleship of the Earth Military District of the Nebula Empire, is the only stellar-class orbital ship in the entire empire.It is a symbol of the imperial force, which has destroyed everything in countless battles.The soldiers who can serve on this ship, even if they are just orderlies, are the only elites in the world.Ye Xuan, standing here, is the newly appointed captain’s adjutant of the Xihe.

It is not accurate to say that she is the captain’s adjutant, because she is not serving on the Xihe.As an officer of the Fifth Army of the Earth Military Region, Ye Xuan’s immediate boss is Major General Ke Xiu, commander of the Fifth Army.It’s just that this major general is now serving as the captain of the Xihe and needs to lead the Xihe on a mission, so Ye Xuan rushed over from Earth without stopping.

Although she wanted to inquire about that person as soon as possible, Ye Xuan knew that it was not the time yet. She nodded slightly and said to Hao Yang, who was leading her to the ship, “Take me to see General Ke.”

The Xihe was so huge that in the wide white corridor, the only sound that could be heard was the thud of military boots hitting the ground.The news that the captain’s adjutant had taken office today had obviously spread. All the soldiers encountered along the way stopped and solemnly saluted Ye Xuan.

But this is completely different from the feeling given to her by the 112th Division where Ye Xuan once stayed. Although the army is a place with strict order, it also makes people particularly close to each other because of its particularity.The soldiers on the Xihe were reserved and distant. They were cold and arrogant, and they could not see the warm-blooded heroic spirit of soldiers at all.

But it was understandable that Ye Xuan sighed secretly. After all, 90% of the people on this ship were coordinators.Faced with herself as a natural person, the adjuster will not give her any enthusiasm beyond etiquette, even if she is a superior.Thinking that Major General Ke Xiu was also an adjuster and a pure-blood noble, Ye Xuan’s usually calm heart couldn’t help but beat up.

She went through all kinds of hardships to join the army, and then joined the Xihe ship, not for any lofty ideals such as defending her homeland and exploring the universe, but because the person she was looking for was once a member of the Xihe ship.No amount of suffering is bearable until you find that person.

“Here we are, Lieutenant.” Hao Yang stopped in front of a metal door.

“Thank you.” Although she knew that the gap between adjusters and natural humans could not be eliminated in a day or two, Ye Xuan still released her kindness as much as possible.

Hao Yang’s reaction was as she expected: “You’re welcome.” – his tone was flat and distant.

Ye Xuan smiled helplessly and turned her gaze to the pupil recognition area beside the door. There was a soft beeping sound, and the metal door opened in response.The space behind the door is large and open, and a whole section of the cabin belongs to the captain of the Xihe.There was a slight buzzing sound in the air, which was the buzzing sound from the integrated central AI.Just as Ye Xuan stepped into the cabin, the inorganic AI voice rang: “Good day, Lieutenant Ye, General Ke is in the war room.”

Following the three-dimensional projection arrow floating in the air, Ye Xuan walked through the corridor lined with exquisite vases and walked towards the war room where Ke Xiu was.Although she only glanced at them in a hurry, she was sure that each of those vases was worth a fortune and could even easily buy an asteroid.

This is how aristocrats behave, she thought with some disdain. Unlike most natural people, Ye Xuan despises the so-called pure-blood principles of the adjusters.Naturally possessing genetic advantages, and then naturally possessing power and wealth, the difference between this kind of adjuster and natural humans is a gap that natural humans cannot catch up in their entire lives.The so-called equality of all people has long become a joke in this cosmic era.

Ye Xuan stopped in front of the war room while thinking endlessly.Looking around, facing her was a huge holographic glass curtain wall. Outside the curtain wall, the stars were vast and bright, with countless sands in the Ganges River and eternal existence.The tall man was facing away from Ye Xuan, as if he was overlooking the beautiful space from 30,000 light-years away transmitted through electronic pulses. In the changing nebulae, he was like an unsheathed sword, glowing with a sharp cold light.

The careless thoughts in Ye Xuan’s head immediately disappeared. Although she had never met Ke Xiu, she knew how outstanding this major general, who was known as the Imperial Military God, was.Even though he was just standing casually without a coat and his shirt was tied loosely in his armed belt, the waist line outlined by the clothing and the slender calves wrapped in military boots all showed that he was a soldier full of strength.

Ye Xuan stood solemnly and gave a military salute: “General Ke, Lieutenant Ye Xuan, the adjutant of the captain of the Xihe and affiliated with the Second Division of the Fifth Group Army of the Earth Military Region, is here to report!”

Ke Xiu turned around after hearing this. His golden brown eyes looked clear and cold. He looked at Ye Xuan indifferently and said with a smile, “Good day, Lieutenant.” Then he paused subtly, and his mellow voice was as graceful as red wine. “Perhaps you can call me Your Excellency.”

In addition to the important position of commander of the Fifth Army, Ke Xiu also has a more prominent identity-Duke of the Garter, one of the only three dukes in the Nebula Empire.For pure-blood nobles, it is obviously their default etiquette to call them by title rather than by title.

If it were normal, Ye Xuan would probably be unhappy with Ke Xiu’s reaction, but she couldn’t care less now.The handsome face in front of her was so familiar that it gradually overlapped with her memory, re-outlining the slightly blurry figure in her mind.

How is it possible?!

Ye Xuan stared at Ke Xiu dumbfounded. Is he the person she has been looking for?!How could it be him, how could it be him!

“I think,” Ke Xiu said coldly, “it would be rude to glare at your superior like that when we first meet, right? Lieutenant.”

Only then did Ye Xuan react and quickly looked away: “Sorry, General Ke, I was rude.”

Ke Xiu glanced at her thoughtfully, as if he didn’t notice the slight disobedience shown by his subordinate: “You have eleven hours to get familiar with the Xihe. We will leave Xuanning at six o’clock tonight.” He turned around and focused his attention on the nebula outside the curtain wall again, “Then we will go to the destination of this mission, the Emerald Galaxy.”
