Chapter 69
"Lance, don't go!" Concubine Qi sat up suddenly, her chest heaving violently. He got up from the ground in a panic, but suddenly touched a warm body, looked down, and then held Lancelot tightly. Holding her in her arms, she was still trembling with lingering fear.
Concubine Qi murmured in Lancelot's ear: "Don't go, don't go..."
Lancelot was so sleepy all afternoon that he let out a murmur, wrapped his arms around his waist unconsciously, and replied half asleep, "I didn't leave..."
After a long while, Concubine Qi came back to her senses, only to realize that everything before was just a dream, and a trace of cold sweat broke out on her forehead.
A kiss was placed on Lancelot's forehead, and Concubine Qi stroked his back with her cool palm up and down, enjoying the rare warmth.
The next day, as the morning light rose slightly, Concubine Qi picked up the clothes scattered around, jumped onto a towering tree with a wider view, and observed the surrounding terrain. The scene in the movie is very similar, no wonder it gives him such a real feeling.
After choosing a direction, Concubine Qi picked up Lancelot who was still asleep and walked out. Lancelot woke up frowning during the bumpy journey. He wrapped his arms around Concubine Qi's neck and rested his head on his shoulder. He asked in a hoarse voice, "Where are we going?"
"I don't know, let's talk about it after leaving this forest. Are you thirsty?"
"Yeah." Lancelot moistened his lips with his tongue.
Concubine Qi put him down, then took out a bamboo tube from her waist, uncovered the plug on it and brought it to his mouth, Lancelot drank several sips with his help, and finally felt that her throat was not so stinging up.
"Does this look like a tropical rainforest on Earth?" Lancelot smiled lazily.
Concubine Qi hugged him again and joked: "Do you think we will fall to the earth?"
The Earth and the Floating Star Field are separated by [-] light-years, even if the wormhole needs to jump several times, how could it land on the Earth?
Lancelot glanced at him sideways and said calmly, "What do you mean?"
"What can I mean? It's just a joke." Concubine Qi said with a smile on her lips.
"You seem to be very calm, and you don't wonder why we came to this place suddenly?" Lancelot asked, "No one has escaped from the black hole yet."
"We are the precedent." Concubine Qi smiled, "There is no one before or after."
"Can your skin be thicker?" Lancelot rolled his eyes blankly.
Concubine Qi said with a deep smile: "How can I catch you if you are not thick-skinned."
Lancelot: "..."
"Does your head still hurt?" Lancelot asked, changing the subject.
Concubine Qi said sweet words: "With you here, there will be no pain."
"...So it still hurts?" Lancelot frowned.
After walking for a whole morning, the two finally walked out of the primeval forest. Of course, Lancelot was always hugged by Concubine Qi.
After watching Concubine Qi put him down, Lancelot kept rubbing his arms, with the corners of his lips slightly hooked, and said without back pain while standing and talking: "It must be very tiring to walk such a long distance with me in your arms, right?"
"It's okay." Concubine Qi naturally lowered her arms and smiled, not acknowledging such a shameful thing.
Lancelot sneered, "It deserves it!"
Concubine Qi: "..." Where did he provoke him?Is it reasonable to carry him all the way?
... Well, it seems that it is indeed because of what he did too much yesterday, but the physical recovery ability of aliens (before fully merging, Concubine Qi would sometimes involuntarily think in the way of earth humans) has always been very good. Tough, how can I not be so tired, I haven't fought for [-] rounds...
"What should we do now?" Lancelot stood by the sea and asked loudly against the sea breeze.
Concubine Qi noticed Lancelot's body trembling coldly, frowned and hugged him into her arms, and shouted loudly in his ear: "First find out what this place is."
"This seems to be a deserted island." Lancelot also roared into his ear.
Her eardrums trembled, and Concubine Qi quickly moved away to save her ears from the fire and water. Although the waves and wind were strong, the alien's hearing was still very good: "Stop shouting, it's so stupid."
Lancelot didn't hear clearly and looked at him suspiciously.
Concubine Qi pulled him away from the seaside, shook the gravel on his body, and said happily, "If we can't go back, can we live here?"
"Just the two of us?" Lancelot stared at him strangely, "You really have leisure and elegance, you don't want your general status and earl noble title?"
"Those are not important." Concubine Qi looked at him tenderly, eyes full of affection, "It is enough to have your company in my life."
Lancelot blushed, looked away uncomfortably, and tried to cover up: "Who wants to accompany you forever."
The front is the sea, and the back is the towering forest. There are no villages or shops in front of this place, and there are no communication tools around the two of them.The warship broke into pieces the moment it was swallowed by the black hole. Although the optical brain on the wrist is still there, it has failed due to the influence of the black hole's magnetic field.It took Concubine Qi a long time to turn it on. Although it was still unable to send messages to the outside world, at least it was not in a completely scrapped state. Even so, it could only be used to tell the time. The direction indicator needle was shaking erratically. Not to be used as a guide.
In desperation, Concubine Qi had no choice but to walk along the beach with Lancelot to see if they could find a place to live. On the way, the two caught a small carnivore at the edge of the forest and solved the hunger problem.
Concubine Qi said happily: "I know what this place is."
Lancelot's spirit was not as good as his, and he was biting the meat one bite at a time. He just rolled his eyelids lazily when he heard such exciting news, and asked casually, "Where is it?"
Concubine Qi didn't notice that his mood was a little low, and she replied with a smile: "When I caught this animal just now, I thought it was a little familiar. Now I eat its meat, I finally remembered it. Do you still remember that there is a small animal called a mud rabbit?" Carnivore?"
"So?" Lancelot raised an eyebrow.
"This is the mud rabbit." Concubine Qi said while eating, "In my impression, the mud rabbit seems to be an animal only in the southeastern part of the Tali Empire. Based on what we have seen at the present stage, I guess we have Possibly on the planet Betalia in the southeast of the Tali Empire."
"So sure?" Lancelot looked at him in surprise and suspicion.
Concubine Qi smiled softly, bent her fingers and flicked his forehead, and said, "Have you forgotten my identity? Know yourself, know your enemy, and win every battle. Although the Tali Empire is an ally of our country, you still need to know what you should know. This There are no permanent enemies or permanent friends in the world, and when it comes to land resources, energy development and other interests, allies can become enemies in a blink of an eye."
"Planet Betalia seems to be relatively backward?" Lancelot pondered for a long time.
"Well, that's why we haven't seen a single person after walking for so long." Concubine Qi nodded.
"In fact, Betalia can be very rich." Lancelot said, "This planet is a bit similar to Earth. If we follow the development and utilization of energy by people on Earth, not to mention high-level planets, at least they can be promoted from low-level second-level planets to mid-level ones." planet ranks."
"Don't you think about why the Tali Empire would give up such a good energy development planet?" Concubine Qi asked back, "Although Betalia is only a low-level planet, the high-level officials of the Tali Empire have a soft spot for it. Do you know why? ?”
"I'm not a child, so I want you to fool me?" Lancelot said speechlessly, "Betalia is rich in products, whether it is marine or terrestrial animals, it is rare and delicious food, and the people of the Tali Empire are very fond of food. I have a special liking, so I value it very much. The reason why it is sparsely populated and even becomes a barren ball is that the danger of Betalia planet is as famous as its food, and according to statistics, human participation will lead to Betalia. The ecological balance is disordered, and for decades this planet almost became a veritable barren ball, so the empire has not allowed residents to live here."
"Honey, you know a lot." Concubine Qi leaned over to kiss him, but Lancelot avoided her.
"Can you be serious?"
Concubine Qi coughed, blinked innocently, and said, "It's already very serious."
Lancelot narrowed his eyes and asked, "What time is it?"
Concubine Qi knew what he wanted to express, looked down at the date and time, and replied: "The imperial merchant ship should land on Planet Betalia in two days."
"Oh." Lancelot murmured.
Concubine Qi finally noticed his strangeness and asked, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Lancelot moved towards him, then leaned his head on his shoulder, and said with rare humor: "I don't know, I'm a little bit unmotivated, it seems that I've been scared by the black hole and have a nervous breakdown."
"Didn't it be fine before?" Concubine Qi said worriedly, "Could it be that I went too far?"
"...Get out!" Lancelot sat upright, then pushed him aside, turned his head and ignored him.
Concubine Qi hurriedly crawled over and took his hand, put it on her lips and kept kissing, and said with a smile: "Baby, don't be angry, I said something wrong, am I worried about your body?"
"Since you're worried about my health, why did you know why?" Lancelot sneered, "I think you were very energetic yesterday."
"Isn't that too exciting?" Concubine Qi looked at him with "you have to understand my mood".
Lancelot sneered, as if the strength in his body had been exhausted because of the action just now, he fell softly into Concubine Qi's arms again. Concubine Qi hugged his body, her cheeks kept rubbing against the top of his head, and there was something in her eyes. worry.
The two-day wait was long, and Lancelot's health was sometimes good and sometimes bad. Concubine Qi was so anxious that she almost grabbed a bird from the primeval forest in order to leave the planet.
Lancelot joked with a smile: "Then you must be the most embarrassing and weirdest general in the empire. It's nothing to lose your own face. It's really stunning if you lose the face of your own country."
It was rare that Lancelot was still in the mood to tease him, and Concubine Qi was almost weeping with joy. Amidst the ups and downs of worry and joy, the merchant ship from the Tali Empire finally arrived late.
These merchants who come to planet Betalia to collect ingredients and hunt wild animals have signed contracts with the empire, which is a mutually beneficial cooperation. They will come every half a month. Although they return with a full load every time, they have to supply more than 20 planets of the empire. The amount of it is still a fantasy, so in fact, Betalia's products can be regarded as rare delicacies, which cannot be afforded by non-nobles and rich people.
But because of the rarity, the prices of the products are sky-high, so the merchants can make a lot of huge profits from them. However, the empire is not a fool, and every time it takes nearly [-]% of the profits from the caravans. complain.
Fortunately, the empire has restricted access to Betalia. Caravans without the permission of the empire cannot go to planet Betalia to collect supplies. Military measures will even be taken against those traders who violate the order, thus better guaranteeing the safety of the contracted caravans. Benefit.Of course, by doing so, the empire also earned more profits for itself from the side.
Fortunately, although the lions in the empire opened their mouths, even [-]% of the profit merchants still made money without losing money, so the merchants would rather be dumb and eat coptis than give up such a good opportunity to make money.
The place where the caravan landed was not far from Concubine Qi and the others, but Concubine Qi knew that she would definitely arouse suspicion if she stepped forward so rashly, and might even cause conflicts, so she planned to quietly approach the merchant ship when those people were scattered.
Probably the people in the caravan did not expect that there were other people on Planet Betalia, so they left the merchant ship at the landing place without even a guard.
There is more than one caravan signed with the empire. In order to ensure their own interests, they basically all come here at the same time. Although they are very competitive, they still coexist peacefully. There are no problems such as internal strife. They can help each other in times of danger.Of course, they can't afford a big conflict, mainly because of their relationship with the empire. After all, they are all allies, and it's not good for anyone if they get stuck.
As a soldier, Raphael is actually a very upright person.
Concubine Qi originally did not expect to steal a merchant ship, but it is not normal for him and Lancelot to appear here. No matter what explanation he gives, it is impossible to win the trust of the caravan. If he and Lancelot If Te's identity is discovered, maybe it will rise to an issue between empires, and it will be a big deal.
So Concubine Qi simply stole a merchant ship and unloaded the radar systems, communication instruments, and energy devices of other merchant ships before leaving, so as to ensure that she would not be hunted down in a short time. as a result of.He roughly estimated the time, and by the time these merchant ships discovered and repaired the merchant ships before chasing him, he had already reached the border between the Tali Empire and the Gamma Empire.At that time, the message he sent had already reached the Gamma Empire, and the Tali Empire could do nothing to him, the worst thing was to compensate the caravan for some losses.
Concubine Qi's plan is very good, and he has successfully stolen a merchant ship. To his surprise, the merchant ship has the stealth function that only belongs to warships. It seems that this caravan is not as safe as imagined. points, but this is also a matter of the Tali Empire, and even if something happens, he will only be happy to see it happen.
The stealth function is simply God's help to Concubine Qi.He activated the invisibility function, and quietly left the planet Betalia from under the eyes of the businessman.
It's just that Concubine Qi's mood is not happy because of this, because Lancelot's situation has not been very good since they left Planet Betalia.
