Chapter 75

Chapter 075. Wilderness Group Training

After reaching his climax in Caesar's hand, Lin Yuan nestled into Caesar's warm embrace. Just like a fully sated cat, his whole body was lazy and did not want to move. The lingering bliss of that intense pleasure was like a tidal wave that slowly washed through every pore on his body, making Lin Yuan's whole body feel incomparably nice and relaxed.

Probably because he had been injected with inhibitors from a young age, Lin Yuan had been unusually apathetic towards desires and after growing up, he had very rarely m.a.s.t.u.r.b.a.t.ed. His interests were all placed in mech operation and all kinds of military matters in history. In this field, he is very inexperienced. And so today, the both strange and intense pleasure that Caesar brought about in his body when he helped him with his hand was just like suddenly opening a door to a new world in front of Lin Yuan's eyes.

—This sort of experience is very new and exciting.

His heartbeat is still just as excessively as fast as before. Lin Yuan took in a deep breath and settled his mind. He adjusted his posture a bit and had just been about to go to sleep when he suddenly felt a hot and hard thing poking right against his abdomen. Through his military pants, that hard thing is like a trapped beast, and when he gets close, he can even feel the fierce throbbing from it.

Caesar's lower part has long-since been achingly hard. Poking against Lin Yuan's lower abdomen separated by his pants, Caesar restrained himself from giving in to the impulse to push the little guy down in front of him. Lightly holding Lin Yuan's hand, he guided his hand and placed it on top of that place. He said in a low voice: "Help me, okay?"

Lin Yuan: "......"

Caesar's deep and low voice reveals a wisp of strange hoa.r.s.eness, which sounds especially erotic in the quiet tent.

The palm of his hand can feel the distinct outline of his hard length. Lin Yuan hesitated for a moment, then he imitated Caesar's actions and gently reached out his hand to remove his leather belt.

In Lin Yuan's views, no matter if it is a friend or a lover, both of them should treat each other fairly and with reciprocation. Caesar had just helped him a moment ago. He should also help Caesar once. It is best for the two to help each other and not come to mutual grief.

Lin Yuan made a firm resolution and carefully undid Caesar's leather belt.

Since this was the first time he did this kind of thing, Lin Yuan's movements seemed somewhat shaky. He clumsily pulled Caesar's underwear down. His stiff erection immediately sprung out from inside. The scalding heat and the intimidating size made Lin Yuan's scalp burst into a fit of numbness. But he nevertheless bore with the strange feeling of discomfort and lightly held Caesar's length.

While they both have the same equipment, an Alpha's will be much bigger than an Omega's. Lin Yuan nearly couldn't hold it with only one hand, the raised veins and blood vessels exposed on his scalding shaft vigorously pulsated in the palm of his hand. Holding the other side's sensitive region— this sort of feeling is very magical.

Lin Yuan lightly touched it somewhat inquisitively, then imitated Caesar's actions and began to rub his hand along up and down.

—Caesar's whole body was as frozen as a statue.

Past all his expectations, with a casual "help me", Lin Yuan really helped him to his surprise......

This Omega's line of thinking is obviously out of the ordinary. In his view, there is probably no such thing as "shyness". Fellow cla.s.smate Lin Yuan is very straightforward, calm, and brazen. In an oversimplified and crude way, he completely comprehends this as a type of "fair principle"—since you helped me, then I will help you too. If we help each other, no one will suffer.

He did not know how much sweetness and torture this kind of action had for Caesar.

Caesar's breathing almost immediately grew heavy.

His erection was being lightly gripped by the Omega he liked. Just imagining that image is enough to make Caesar endlessly stirred up. Let alone that Lin Yuan also has a very high spirit for exploring to learn from Caesar's movements just then. He kneaded his b.a.l.l.s and touches the front end for a while, his slender fingers hold his shaft and rhythmically slide up and down. He very earnestly and very patiently moves to win Caesar over.

—Caesar is nearly losing his mind.

His scalding length was being held in Lin Yuan's slightly cooler hand and Caesar felt that he was simply on the brink of the border between heaven and h.e.l.l.

At first, it was very hard to restrain himself. Lin Yuan's actions were like he was scratching the wrong itch. Surprisingly, however, it caused Caesar's desire to grow even more past what he was capable of enduring. Even his breathing grew heated, filled with impa.s.sioned l.u.s.t.

Lin Yuan tormented him for quite a while yet he found that Caesar hadn't released his desire at all. To his surprise, the thing in the palm of his hand was inconceivably swelling up another size. Lin Yuan almost couldn't wrap his hand around it and his wrists were also a bit sore, but that place of Caesar's didn't give him any face and grew increasingly harder.

Just when Lin Yuan embarra.s.singly didn't know what to do, Caesar suddenly grabbed Lin Yuan's hand gently, whispering: "Xiao Yuan......"

His deliberately lowered voice makes it seem as if he was putting forth his utmost effort to endure something.

Lin Yuan wanted to loosen his hand, but he suddenly tightened his grip on him.

Caesar tightly held Lin Yuan's hand and immediately sped up the rhythm. Lin Yuan's movements just now were too gentle, it was only tickling him. It was simply more than Caesar could bear! He naturally understands that of his own body very well, he has mastered the intensity and frequency of his movements very skillfully. Only, today's "self-comfort" is completely different than what he is used to. Although he is leading the movement, the layer of Lin Yuan's hand still stands between his hand from his hard-on.

Lin Yuan's hand is still the one in direct contact with his erection.

He was grasped on that place by the slender fingers of Lin Yuan, Caesar felt so pleasurable that he almost wanted to come immediately. He even wanted to directly overwhelm this thick-skinned little guy to eat him up clean on the spot. However, considering the following training a.s.signment, Caesar nevertheless ultimately used his extremely strong self-control to restrain his urges.

Caesar tightly clasped Lin Yuan's hand and set off into rubbing up and down, letting the youth's slender fingers stroke his scalding length over and over again. Only until Lin Yuan's palms were nearly bursting into flames by the violent friction did Caesar suddenly arch his back and finally release.

Lin Yuan's hand was immediately covered with a sticky fluid and an awful lot of it. It almost dirtied his whole palm and some shot at Lin Yuan's lower abdomen.

Caesar caught his breath for a moment, then let go of his hand and took out the communicator to switch on the light. He found a towel and pulled Lin Yuan's hand up. He carefully wiped away clean the stuff he had left behind.

It was very quiet inside the tent, it was so quiet that you could practically distinctly hear the sound of the wind and the cries of the insects outside.

Under the warm yellow light, the male student lowered his head carefully as well as conscientiously wiped his fingers clean for him. A single drop of sweat flowed down the contours of the sharply cut outline of the profile of his face, it looked handsome and sensual.

That picture abruptly made the bottom of Lin Yuan's heart faintly stir. Beyond any reasonable explanation, he extended his only other unoccupied left hand and softly placed it on the top of Caesar's head. Then...... petted him rather like a house pet and gently stroked Caesar's hair.

Caesar was suddenly struck dumb. He raised his head up and was met with Lin Yuan's shining jet-black eyes.

The youth's face still bears a slight trace a red from the post-haze of desire, his face is reflected in his clear eyes. At this moment, he is earnestly as well as single-mindedly looking at himself, the corners of his lips wear a shallow smiling expression. He appears to have something on his mind.

Caesar asked in a soft voice: "What are you thinking about?"

Lin Yuan sincerely said: "I'm thinking that you don't resemble a prince one bit."

Those legendary stories and the royal princes in TV shows which are aloof and remote with awe-inspiring authority and prestige, while Caesar, however, was so low-key and steady. Just now when he injured a part of his leg, he kneeled down on one knee and applied medicine for him. After they finished solving their physical problems, he also attentively found a towel and helped him wipe his hand. If this scene was seen by others, they would definitely think that Lin Yuan was the prince and Caesar was merely the most loyal bodyguard at his side.

Human hearts are not made of stone. How can Lin Yuan not be moved when Caesar treats him like this?

Seeing Caesar's appearance as he lowered his head in front of him, Lin Yuan couldn't help but reach out and touch his head to show encouragement.

This kind of comforting action similar to "smoothing hair" is greatly heartening to Caesar. While Caesar pretending to be undisturbed on the outside, in his mind however he was actually endlessly stirred up.

Lin Yuan finally got things straight and also learned to respond at last.

So, this is the so-called happiness of "the adjoining clouds will eventually scatter to reveal the bright moon"?

(TN: I liked the imagery it had going on in the original Chinese better but the English equivalent would be "a rainbow comes after every storm.")

***

That night, the two men held each other as they slept in a small tent. It was probably because their bodies had been thoroughly exhausted following their o.r.g.a.s.ms, but both of them slept very well, and throughout the night they dreamlessly slept until daybreak.

When Lin Yuan woke up, Caesar had long-since gotten out of bed. He lifted the tent flap open to go out and right away was met with the sight of Caesar preparing to light a fire to roast fish. Seeing Lin Yuan, he smiled and said: "Go wash your face real quick and come eat breakfast."

A light gust of wind blew directly at his face, the early morning air of the forest was exceptionally fresh and clean. The melodious trills and calls of the encompa.s.sing little birds, the sound of the water in the river flowing to the side, and the rustling sound of the breeze blowing through the tree leaves blended together, making the whole world seem full of life.

The bustling image of Caesar in front of the bonfire nevertheless adds a touch of comfort and warmth to this lively morning.

Lin Yuan turned and walked to the riverside, he took a deep breath of the forest's fresh air. He then crouched down and used the river water to wash his face.

The cold water splashed across his cheeks, his tiredness evaporated and he immediately became full of energy. The smell of roasting fish came from the nearby fire. Although it was wilderness training and so early, Lin Yuan feels it was exceptionally beautiful this morning.

Walking over to the side of the bonfire, Caesar has already finished roasting the fish and habitually handed Lin Yuan the biggest one.

Lin Yuan walked to his side and took a seat. He accepted the fish he had pa.s.sed over and tore off a chunk of meat and popped it into his mouth— why does he suddenly think that the fish that Caesar personally roasted in the wilderness was even more delicious and tender than the various kinds of simmer-fried and steamed fish in the dining hall?

The two hurriedly ate their fill and then sorted out their luggage before continuing on their way.

Walking forward side by side, they didn't walk for more than a few steps before hearing a peal of sounds, reminiscent of the sound of some animals running. The sounds grew louder and louder, they were quickly getting closer to here, Lin Yuan vigilantly halted his footsteps, Caesar also came to a stop at the same time. The two men stood in their current position back to back with a tacit understanding and clenched the military knife tightly in their hands.

After a short period of time pa.s.sed, they only saw a herd of white antelopes appear in their field of view. The antelopes seemed to be having a morning exercise session. They disinclined to even glance at the two people and ran straight by the two of them, completely ignoring these two humans.

Lin Yuan: "......"

Caesar: "......"

Until the herd of antelopes faded away into the distance, the two men embarra.s.sedly glanced at each other face to face and couldn't help but simultaneously fall into laughter.

Lin Yuan withdrew the military knife and smiled, saying: "We are too tensed up. I already heard that the most dangerous thing in this forest is the poisonous snakes. Other animals such as reindeer and antelope will not attack humans at all."

Caesar also smiled and said: "En, let's continue on forward, be careful of the ground."

Lin Yuan nodded. "You be careful too. The dead leaves here are very thick. There might be a snake hidden underneath."

Unlike yesterday's heaviness, today's atmosphere is clearly a lot better. Lin Yuan also takes the initiative to talk with Caesar. After going through their exchanges last night, the two seemed to become more deeply connected. When they ran into a few viper attacks along the way, both of them coordinated with each other and averted disaster without a hitch.

By the time it was noon, Lin Yuan and Caesar had already completed walking nearly 90% of the distance they just had the final more than ten kilometers left before they could reach the exit.

The midday weather was sizzling hot, and Caesar suggested they take a quick break. The two found a big tree and sat down in the shade. The roasted fish made by Caesar in the morning that was put in some vacuum-sealed packaging in his backpack was just taken out for lunch.

In the wilderness, they can only be self-sufficient with their food. After eating fish for two days in a row, the fish meat that he had just begun to think was delicious and tasty was also becoming bland as he ate it now. But it is already pretty good that he is able to fill his stomach. Lin Yuan is not picky about food either and swallows a few mouthfuls of fish meat down to quell the emptiness of his stomach.

After half an hour of rest, their physical strength almost fully recovered, and the two got up and started their journey.

Lin Yuan stood up and patted the dirt on his trousers. He suddenly heard a "ding" sound coming from underneath his feet. It seemed that he had stepped on something. Lin Yuan distrustfully used the branches to poke away the thick leaves on the ground. The only thing hiding underneath the cover of the dead leaves was an unmoving circular metal object lying still on the ground.

Lin Yuan squatted down to take a closer look and finally recognized it—

A military badge.

On the backside of all the badges will have the flying eagle logo of the Emperor's XX Department engraved upon it, which is naturally the symbol of the Emperor's XX Department. But the decorative design on the front side of the badge varies greatly legion to legion. For example, the Hydra Legion will have a dark green serpentine totem engraved. The badge of the Rose Legion will have a white background with a platinum-gold trimmed j.a.panese rose flower. The badge of the Glory Legion has a golden sun design engraved on it......

At present, the badge that Lin Yuan saw is a dark purple on the front side and is engraved with the logo of thunder and lightning. The edge is plated with gold that glistens under the light of the sunshine. The craftsmanship of the badge is very fine. Even though it has been left behind in the forest for many years, after wiping it off, it will be just as bright as before without the slightest signs of rust.

A purple badge...... This should be the hallmark of the Thunder Legion.

For what reason would a badge of the Thunder Legion appear in this forest?

Seeing that Lin Yuan squatted down and was looking at something there, Caesar walked up to his side and asked, "What's going on?"

Lin Yuan stood up and pa.s.sively picked up the badge on the ground and pa.s.sed it over to Caesar, "I found this on the ground."

Caesar took it and gave it a look, he said in confusion: "A badge of the Thunder Legion? What is this doing here?"

Lin Yuan also said in confusion: "I think it is a bit strange too, I remember that the Thunder Legion has always been stationed in the Capital Star, isn't that so?"

Caesar slightly pursed his brows.

There are quite a few large galaxies administrative regions in the Empire, and each of the six major legions is responsible for their own duties. The Glory Legion led by Rosen is responsible for warfare on the front line. General Auguste Orlando of the Thunder Legion and General Udir Shaman of the Rose Legion have always led their troops to be stationed in the Cepheus Galaxy, and several other legions also ordinarily station themselves in their respective galaxies.

Each soldier of the Empire should receive the badge of a Legion after he or she officially becomes a member of the Legion. He or she is required to wear it on their military uniform to mark them as a member of the Legion. This kind of badge hold extremely important significance to a soldier, it is absolutely impossible for it to have been voluntarily abandoned.

Caesar looked at the badge in his hand and was silent for a moment. He said in a low voice: "Let's look around in the nearby vicinity, there might be other discoveries."

Lin Yuan also has this intention, the two looked at each other face to face, and no longer spoke any superfluous words. They very well-coordinatedly went to individually look around

A moment later, Lin Yuan found another badge in the gra.s.s three meters away in the underbrush, and Caesar also found one under a tree.

The two met up once again and put the three badges together. Neither of them said anything for a short while.

—These three badges are like carbon copies, all of them are the badges of the Thunder Legion. The purple front side and the golden bordered rim are luminously dazzling, shining under the rays of light. Because badges of legions do not change easily, they can't make out which period of time these badges are a part of.

Caesar was silent for a moment and whispered: "There are two possibilities. First, several soldiers of the Thunder Legion accidentally left their badges here when they pa.s.sed by, however, there are three badges. The probability of three people simultaneously leaving them behind is honestly way too low...... Second is that the owners of the badges deliberately or possibly were compelled by circ.u.mstances to leave them behind here."

Caesar paused, "If it is the second case, then owners of these badges...... it all probably points to disaster."

Lin Yuan thought about it and felt that Caesar's inferences were very reasonable.

The probability that three people lost their badges in the same place is honestly way too small. Unless there something had happened here, such as fighting, possible dangers, or even a danger to their lives, that would be the reason why the badge that soldiers regard as their convictions would be simultaneously left behind.

Lin Yuan looked to Caesar and said: "But the Thunder Legion has always been stationed in the constellation of Cepheus. Could anyone have come to the Po Military Starfield?"

Caesar twirled a purple badge gently between his fingers, he was also pondering over this issue. The Legion Administration is very strict, why would the badge of the Thunder Legion appear in the Po Military Starfield after being stationed in the Capital Star for such a long time?

Ever since he was able to coherently think, he has never heard of the Thunder Corps ever coming to Po Military Starfield.

As a military base, the Po Military Starfield has always been supervised by the Hydra Legion. The Hydra Legion is also in charge of each military exercise. Not too long ago, Udir suddenly came here with the Rose Legion. Apart from this, none of the other legions should have crossed over here.

Could it be that it had been many years ago? Such as...... before I was born?

In the eyes of Caesar, an intuitive gleam suddenly flashed in his eyes. His fingers holding the badge slightly tensed up. Turning his head back to look at Lin Yuan, he said: "19 years ago, Suzaku arbitrarily escaped from the constellation of Cepheus. It was precisely the Thunder Legion and the Phantom Legion with their two S-Cla.s.s mechs who were in charge of hunting it down!"

Lin Yuan's stare went blank and he immediately came to a realization, "That's right, Suzaku told me that the two mechs are called Comet and Phantom, respectively, belonging to the Thunder Legion's General Auguste Orlando and the Phantom Legion's General Ivan Stork."

Caesar nodded and said: "In the process of their punishment at that time, in addition to the two Generals' S-Cla.s.s mechs, there were still innumerable warships from the two Legions that followed and provided support. Suzaku ultimately used up its power-source under the joint pursuit and attack of the two mechs. The placement of the landing...... was the Po Military Starfield."

"......" Lin Yuan was momentarily silent.

Although Suzaku had swept past this memory, sketching it out in light shades, Lin Yuan could nevertheless guess that during those years when its Master had committed the so-called "great crime", it had also been sentenced to life imprisonment. It had continuously fled from the constellation of Cepheus to the Po Military Starfield where it had then been hopelessly cornered into a dead end by the joint pursuit of the two S-Cla.s.s mech's.

In those years, Po Military Starfield was the end of its flight.

After Suzaku was arrested, there would inevitably be new problems that would crop up out of nowhere, and so the two generals just directly used the top floor of the museum as Suzaku's prison.

Lin Yuan looked at the badge in Caesar's hand and asked with a complicated expression: "Do you mean that the owners of these badges might have something to do with the matter of Suzaku being put under arrest all those years ago?"

Caesar nodded, softly saying: "This is just my conjecture. Since as I remember it, the Thunder Legion has never been to the Po Military Starfield before. It was only when Suzaku has hunted down 19 years ago that some soldiers and officers followed along and came here together with General Orlando. "

The two men were mutually silent for a moment, Caesar lightly put his hand on Lin Yuan's shoulder and turned his head back to look at him, "Don't worry, put away the badges first. After we go back, we can ask Suzaku. If it's really related to it, we will find a way to get to the bottom of this matter."

Lin Yuan nodded and carefully put the three badges away.

***

At that same moment, inside the highest level confidential meeting room of the Emperor's XX Department.

Because every General of the major legions are presently in different areas and each is also preoccupied with military affairs, it is indeed way too troublesome to hold a meeting in the Capital Star. This upcoming meeting has employed the method of a long-distance network meeting. All of the regimental commanders of the military use the highest authority pa.s.sword to directly enter into the closed virtual network meeting room for discussion.

At 4:30 in the afternoon, the heads of the six major legions of the military eventually are all punctually present.

There are two main driving points for this meeting. One is the application General Udir submitted to transfer the Rose Legion to the Po Military Starfield, and the other is the proposal Rosen put forward to recapture the jurisdiction and authority of the Isville Galaxy right after the anniversary of the Empire.

The Isville Galaxy is enriched with natural resources. Its various kinds of minerals and raw material reserves even surpa.s.s that of Cigar Galaxy by double the amount.

Because this galaxy resides on the common boundary at the junction between the Federation and the Empire's Administrative Region, both sides want to fight over it. Nineteen years ago, the previously appointed Marshal had dispatched Ling Yu to lead the Dark Night Legion to mount a sneak attack on Naomi Star. But somehow, the Federations hostile forces had heard the wind of it in advance. The Dark Night Legion led by Ling Yu was met with an ambush near the Naomi Star. Fortunately, Rosen had good foresight to come to the scene without delay and a.s.sist Ling Yu. Even though Ling Yu was on the verge of collapse due to the failure of his inhibitor, he nevertheless still relied on his last bit of calm to let the Dark Night Legion successfully withdraw.

Since then, the Isville Galaxy has been occupied by the Federation Legion.

Over the years, Rosen has always wanted to seize the Isville Galaxy, but it has been delayed for various reasons. The other legion commanders of the military each stick to their own opinions and argue to no end. This proposal has never been pa.s.sed either

This time, after the 600th Anniversary Celebration of the Empire, Rosen once again raised this proposal to campaign for the Isville Galaxy.

In addition to the rich energy reserves being a great a.s.set for the Empire, there is another reason—

The campaigning mission for Naomi that Ling Yu had not complete back then, this is the biggest regret of Ling Yu's military career.

—If he did not complete the mission, then give it to me to complete.

Rosen's gaze unhurriedly swept across the faces of his five colleagues and he calmly began to talk: "About my proposal, we will initiate the voting process now."

(TN: And so the next arc begins... Who can guess will be in the spotlight this time~? And on the other hand. The name has been like officially changed? It went from 軍校生 (Cadets) to 在校生 (Students in School)? Or maybe (Enrolled Students)? Whatever. Something like that. We got three options here. Tell me what you think. I'll do what the ma.s.ses want don't be afraid to call me dumb for even fretting about this. I don't bite, that's Caesar's job.)

1. Just change the name, it's not a big deal!

2. Leave it how it is, just make a note of it somewhere!

3. Waver between these options. You don't know anything. You are a fool. Steep in all of the terrible decisions you could be making by deciding. Suffer.
