Chapter 709: 13.10 – Missed Star – Dragon Cosmos
In Dragon Cosmos, Long Xie was listening to his people’s report and the group of doctors who are assigned to do his treatment. His treatment was delayed until today as the doctors said that his mind was not in stability and waited three more days before they began his treatment.
Subordinates:
“Other than Zhi Wei whose family is a noble under the Empire and three federal Military divisions, the Beta Constellation and East Cross Constellation have all shown intention of cooperating with Dragon Cosmos. It seems that General Autumn had held their chains well.”
When the subordinate mentioned General Autumn, they didn’t notice Long Xie’s hand shaking.
“The second batch of funds was in place. Today we passed six A-level projects on the gene industry and new energy...”
“And... someone said that Feng Mo has been seen at the Federal Borders.”
Long Xie’s eyes were indifferent when the name Feng Yu was mentioned, “Strengthen the guard.”
.....
His subordinates saluted before taking their leave as they finished their reports.
Now the doctors led by Professor Sian reported.
“Everything was prepared in place. Since your mental state stabilized, we can begin the second room of your Gene unlocking.” Said Chen Sian.
Long Xie said, “Whatever you do.”
At this time, He Yuu entered the room with urgency. “My Xiao Ru finally sent a message!”
Long Xie’s indifferent eyes finally showed a glint of emotion that startled the doctors in the room when they noticed it, but their head professor gestured for their silence.
Long Xie asked, “What did he say? How’s Qiu’er?”
“That... Xiao Ru finally pulled his boss out of his office. He said... they will attend the special training scheduled by the company.” Said He Yuu.
Long Xie asked. “Where?”
He Yuu pointed to the ground with a huge grin. “Here... in our Dragon Cosmos Military Training Field!”
Following day. Outside Dragon Cosmos. The space vehicle took the trainees’ stop by the harbor of the cosmos. One by one they went down to the car. The players were currently wearing their casual clothes.
Ye Wusheng was wearing a simple black shirt and charcoal gray pants with a sleeveless gray hoodie on top of his shirt. Lou Ye was wearing a sleeve white shirt revealing his muscles and a plaid shirt. He is completely in summer wear attire. Lin Lan was wearing a loose thin polo navy blue shirt and black pants. He looks neat and smart.
On the other hand, holding Wusheng’s arm Tu Zise is wearing a rabbit-eared white sleeveless hoodie and brown shorts, he looks like an innocent young man going on vacation. Most players were in summer attire too. The last ones to go down from the suspension car are Tang Ruan and Ye Qiuji.
Tang Ruan is wearing a pastel gray polo shirt and a white blazer on his face is black-rimmed glasses to hide his eyes. Following behind is Ye Qiuji wearing huge black hoodies with a wide hood that hides his whole face paired with tight charcoal gray pants that shows his slender long legs and plump butt.
The guards on the harbor couldn’t help but look at Ye Qiuji’s sexy body in the distance, even though they couldn’t see his face behind his hood, just the perfect shape of his body took the attention of the people who noticed him. To guard him properly Tang Ruan pulled Ye Qiuji’s hood even lower.
Very soon the person responsible for them also arrived at the port, handing each of them a mask. He then started his explanation.
“Foreign Visitors need to go and do a customs registration. After arriving in Jialong City there are three identities to choose from. Without a mask, you are still you. When you put on your mask, no one will look into your past. For clients participating in the training programs, we generally recommend keeping your identities confidential.”
Tu Zise asked a question. “What about the third identity?”
The guide raised their eyebrows, “Third kind are those protected by the glory of the Jialong City. They can move unhindered in the city and are respected in all ways one can imagine. See that badge? That’s their identification token.”
Tu Zise and the rest looked in the direction the guide pointed. A silver dragon glowed in the virtual projection.
Lin Lan asked, “Sir, is there any meaning behind the mask?”
Hearing such a question, the Guide showed a grin. “Of course! There’s a reason. Don’t you know that Jialong City is also known as the City of Mask? There are many people that give up their identity here. Removing the masks has special meanings.”
Tu Zise asked innocently, “Special Meanings?”
The guide said, “Taking off another person’s mask represents accepting everything about that person, including their mask. Allowing one to take off one’s mask represents honesty and honor.”
Meanwhile, Tang Ruan pulled his boss and showed a special badge of the same dragon motif but gold in color. This is a badge his fiancé, He Yuu, gave him as a marriage token. The Gold Dragon badge means he has a familial relationship with the gold dragon of Dragon Cosmos.
Special Dragon Badge:
0 – Crimson: Long Xie
1 – Black: He Ling [Long Xie’s Confidant & He Yuu’s older brother]
2 – Gold: He Yuu
3 – Gray: Cao Jun [Subordinate of He Ling]
Once the guide saw the golden dragon badge on Tang Ruan’s hand, he and the other people in the crowd immediately saluted in front of him.
Guide greeted him respectfully. “Welcome! Your Excellency.” He saluted before Tang Ruan while eyeing the hooded man standing beside him waiting for him to bring out his badge.
“Stop peeking. Unless you wish for this king to dig your eyes out.”
Whispered Ye Qiuji, only a short glint of crimson eyes froze the guide in fear.
Tang Ruan had played the middleman role, “Do guide us to the customs.” The guide flinched and did his work while trembling a bit at every step while moving away from Ye Qiuji.
After passing the customs, a suspension car came over and quietly picked up the group of trainees. The base for the special training was located in a huge building ten kilometers away from the harbor. There are other similar training clients waiting in the hall when they arrive. Fat, thin, tall, short, they were all different, but they all wore the same matted white mask.
Before stepping officially into the hall, the trainees were to wear the mask, there were at least six to seven hidden buttons and the material is soft which is also closely fitting to the shape of the face of the wearer. Tang Ruan and Ye Qiuji tried to minimize their presence as they didn’t alter their faces this time because they were required to wear masks most of the time.
Ye Qiuji still kept his face completely hidden under his hoodie. Their instructor finally arrived. He is wearing a gaudy pure gray mask on his face. This instructor is called Cao Jun, as he spoke, they could hear him talk a bit coquettishly.
Instructor Cao said, “Now, open the concealed compartment on the right arm of your combat suit. So, you see the black device? It’s the pop-up life-saving capsule. The first thing to do is to pull out the power from the life-saving capsule.”
The trainees except for Tang Ruan and Ye Qiuji moved to follow the orders. The two didn’t move because their battle suit never had a life-saving capsule installed in it. When Cao Jun noticed them not moving, he especially mentioned them.
Cao Jun spoke, “The two hiding beauties at the rear. Are you not going to follow this instructor’s orders then you-”
“There’s nothing to pull. Our battle suit never had a life-saving capsule installed in it,” replied Tang Ruan as he personally revealed that his current battle suit is his own one and a customized version of a military division. Cao Jun noticed that and realized that the two beauties at the rear may be hidden warriors.
“OH~ forgive me for that. Next, line up and come in with me one by one for your evaluations. You will then be assigned, one-on-one drill masters. The two at the rear let’s begin with you. The one in a black hoodie.” Cao Jun said.
“I wish to go in with him.” Said Tang Ruan.
Cao Jun chuckles. “What are you afraid of? it’s like I will eat your friend.”
“You will die if you try to do so.” Replied Tang Ruan coldly.
Ye Qiuji said. “Enough, Ruru. Stay outside. I’m okay.”
Inside the room, Instructor Cao spoke without lifting his head, “Remove your combat uniform. Report your weight and height.”
The sounds of rustling were heard, Cao Jun glanced up and froze at the scene. “...188...71...[Height and weight of Ye Qiuji]”
Skin white as snow. Solid abs, small navel, and sexy V line exposed. Ye Qiuji is halfway about to remove his clothes when he notices a passionate gaze on him making him pause for a moment wanting to glare at the perverted instructor behind him.
Gulps~
A faint green sheen flashed through instructor Cao’s eyes, his gaze practically gluing itself to Ye Qiuji’s body.
Cao Jun gulping... “L-Little student, your drill master has been determined. Come here and let’s-” the next words got stuck in his throat as someone entered the room forcefully and gently helped Ye Qiuji to pull down his clothes back on.
This newly arrived man looked similar to He Yuu but there is no hint of silliness in his whole being, just seriousness, and maturity. This man is named He Ling, he is He Yuu’s elder brother and Long Huangdi’s close confidant.
He Ling respectfully bowed in front of Ye Qiuji, the very same gesture he gave to his Emperor. “Please wait for a moment. I will teach this trash some manners before this subordinate properly greets Your Highness.”
Ye Qiuji knew why he was being treated like royalty in Dragon Cosmos because this land is owned by his husband. He nodded his head to show agreement. Once he received permission the paled Cao Jun looked shocked to the point of death when looking at Ye Qiuji shaking like a chicken to be slaughtered in disbelief. He let He Ling grab him by his collar and beat him half dead outside the room. Tang Ruan entered the room with a masked He Yuu.
“Aaaaahhh~~ I’m sorry! I really didn’t know... oh God! Stop hitting, I’m dying!! It’s your fault! Why did you show up late!?”
“NO~ don’t tell the lord!? I’m going to die~ I’m really going to die!!”
After a while, He Ling returned to greet Ye Qiuji properly. He fell on one knee and saluted Ye Qiuji. He Yuu and Tang Ruan followed after He Ling after all he is still their senior and Ye Qiuji is still their boss’ other half (boss). “Greetings, Your Highness General Autumn. I am surname He and birth name Ling.”
With apathetic eyes, Ye Qiuji commanded them, “Stand. Your greetings are accepted.”
“Thank you, Your Highness.” Replied He Ling.
The half-dead Cao Jun is currently crawling on the ground but still watching the whole scene. Most of his bones were intentionally dislocated by He Ling which is why he is still on the ground motionless. He then saw Ye Qiuji lowering his hood revealing his masked face.
Cao Jun instantly fell in trance with his tempting beauty, but he was instantly pulled back to reality when he noticed the crimson-colored dragon-shaped earring on Ye Qiuji’s right ear. Crimson Dragon, these earrings are something special within their cosmos. Only their lord’s other beloved possesses the other half of the crimson dragon earring.
Seeing it handing on Ye Qiuji’s ear, he finally realized what kind of scary identity this divine beauty has. Not only he has an ethereal appearance even his strength was famously known by everyone in the realm.
