Damn, what kind of fake friendship is this? Even a small cookie is better than this.
"No, you have to let me try it right now!"
Mu Yu: "No way, we agreed to break up, I'm not sharing with a rabbit who isn't a friend."
The two, a human and a rabbit, started arguing childishly.
Ruan Mingchu just enjoyed it.
The space patrol team discovered a mermaid with a human body and a fish tail in the triangle area. After reporting it, Meng Shuo and Run Yu confirmed that it was Galo.
When he was discovered, Galo was engaged in a space battle with hundreds of mechs.
The pilots of the mechs were members of the Miracle Organization. They were ordered to hunt down Galo and retrieve the divine artifact. They thought that it would be easy to capture Galo if a few hundred people surrounded him.
In the end, hundreds of people were played by Galo and their lives were in constant danger.
The leader wavered between retreating and continuing, and finally made up his mind to retreat, but was discovered by the space patrol team, and could no longer retreat.
This is the scene that Nguyen Minh Thu and his group saw when they arrived.
Galo was surrounded by hundreds of mechs in the center, and the mechs were surrounded by a ring of space patrol warships.
If you didn't know better, you'd think it was some kind of performance art.
Ruan Mingchu and Mu Yu, along with several other members of the space patrol team, landed on the main ship and met with their captain.
The captain said, "That mermaid refuses to communicate with us, so we're stuck here."
I can't contact Galo, and if I attack him head-on, I might hurt him.
Ruan Mingchu glanced at Galo on the screen, who had managed to stay in space for so long without wearing any equipment. Just as Meng Shuo and Runyu had said, Galo was very strong.
"It's okay, let's clear out these mechs first, they won't hurt him."
The captain looked at Mu Yu, knowing that Ruan Mingchu, an Omega with no status, obviously had no say in the matter.
Mu Yu said, "Listen to him."
Meng Shuo and Runyu echoed, "Lord Galo will be fine."
The captain rolled his eyes inwardly, but since someone else was taking responsibility, he could do whatever he wanted.
"Pass down the order to seize the mechs."
The patrol ships went to deal with the warships, while many mechs flew out from the warships to fight the mech horde.
Space mech combat is the most common form of battle.
In a warship battle, the outcome depends on the performance of the warships more than 99% of the time. However, in most cases, the performance of everyone's warships is similar, and whoever has more ships has the advantage. Moreover, warships are very expensive to build, and no one dares to treat them as expendable assets.
Mech battles rely more on the pilots' skills. So it's a common understanding that warships fighting warships are just a friendly spar, but mechs fighting mechs is a fight to the death.
Of course, the above only applies to humans. When facing star beasts, do whatever it takes to kill them.
Ruan Minhchu glanced at the battle situation, then stopped paying attention to the seemingly invincible battle.
He looked at Meng Shuo and Runyu: "Is there any way to contact Galo?"
Meng Shuo: "Lord Galo should sense us. Let's wait for him to contact us."
Ruan Mingchu: "Should?"
Tu Aotian was more direct: "What if he doesn't want to talk to you?"
Runyu: "We're all of the same clan, how could that be?"
Although he spoke loudly, Mo lacked confidence.
Lord Galo is a well-known lone wolf.
Ruan Mingchu decided to have a closer conversation with Galo.
He asked Meng Shuo, "Can you expose yourself directly to the universe like he does?"
Meng Shuo shook his head, but he could only last five or six minutes.
Ruan Mingchu borrowed a spacious mech from the patrol team and approached Galo with Meng Shuo.
Galo is a silver-haired, golden-tailed mermaid with a stern face and an aura of holiness and solemnity.
Ruan Mingchu opened the mecha's external speaker channel and let Meng Shuo speak.
Meng Shuo swallowed hard, his whole body tense; it was clear he was very nervous.
"Lord Galo, I...I am Meng Shuo, from the Blue Tail Clan. May I...may I board the warship?"
Meng Shuo was somewhat incoherent; he was just too nervous.
Galo seemed to think for a minute, and then he nodded.
Meng Shuo breathed a sigh of relief, but still stammered, "You, you come with me."
Galo is not difficult to communicate with, at least not with mermaids. He will talk to Ruan Mingchu, a mermaid-hybrid, but he completely ignores humans.
After Ruan Mingchu explained the situation to Galo, Galo took out a four-pointed star-shaped stone.
"It told me that the wormhole would reappear in ten days and that it could help me locate it. But this would be the last time, after which it would lose its effectiveness."
Ruan Mingchu: "So it's best to find other mermaids within ten days."
Galo corrected, "It is necessary."
“I will find them myself. You don’t need to interfere. I will come to you before the wormhole appears.”
Meng Shuo and Run Yu only dared to nod, not daring to say a word. They showed none of the arrogance they had shown in front of the researchers, looking more like lambs encountering wolves.
After speaking with Galo, Galo chose to leave, jumping off the warship and quickly disappearing from sight.
Meng Shuo and Run Yu watched him go with bated breath, and only relaxed after Galo had really gone far away.
Meng Shuo stretched and said, "Let's go back. It's so good not to have to worry about it."
Runyu nodded in agreement. "The research institute is great. It's even more comfortable than the life of a prince in the palace."
Mu Yu looked at Ruan Mingchu, who tiptoed and tapped his forehead: "We're doing our own thing, what does it have to do with him?"
Mu Yu sighed, "Okay then."
Now, the mere thought of Gao Bugui makes him want to vomit, and he hopes that when he meets him in person, he can refrain from punching him.
When they got back inside, the air was filled with a rich, sweet aroma. Rabbit Aotian flew into the house with his ears like propellers, shouting, "The cookies are mine!"
Mu Yu hurriedly chased after him, shouting, "Stop right there! That's mine!"
The human and the rabbit started arguing again over cookies.
Menhao finally got enough sleep and got up to join the cookie-grabbing frenzy.
Ruan Mingchu smiled and took out her notebook, making some changes to what she had written.
2. Finding Galo (1/1)
3. Head to Mermaid World (1/1)
He didn't expect that the fourth problem, which he thought would be very slow and would take at least three or four years to solve, would be resolved so quickly.
He didn't know what he would encounter in the mermaid world, or how long he would stay there. In these ten days, he had to arrange matters for the next two or three years.
In truth, without knowing how to return, Ruan Mingchu rationally didn't want to take any risks. These were turbulent times, with various problems surfacing, and he felt more at ease staying here.
But a voice from the depths of his being kept telling Ruan Mingchu to hurry over, or it would be too late.
What's too late? It can't stay like this forever, can it?
Ruan Mingchu smiled at himself. He had grown two centimeters in the past six months, and even if he didn't go, he should be able to recover in a dozen years.
5. Talk to your father before going to the Mermaid World (0/1)
Nguyen Minh Thuc wrote this line in his notebook, though he felt his father would likely refuse his request.
Touching the box in his pocket, Ruan Mingchu's restless heart calmed down.
Gao Bugui himself is rarely on the Imperial Star. His job at the Education Bureau is to receive a salary but do no work. He only shows up occasionally when he needs to exercise the power of the deputy director.
Ruan Mingchu and Mu Yu came to a hot spring star to find him.
Hot Spring Star is a famous health resort. It is one of the few multi-star system joint operation sites and receives many dignitaries from various star systems every day.
Most of the powerful and wealthy people on the imperial star own property here.
Meng Shuo and Run Yu also came with Ruan Mingchu, but their main purpose was to soak in the hot springs.
I'm about to go home, so I have to try all the delicious things I haven't tried here yet!
Rabbit Aotian also insisted on soaking in a hot spring, so the first thing the group did upon arriving here was to book a hot spring at the highest-rated hot spring resort.
Thanks to his mother's influence, Mu Yu successfully booked a stay at a themed hot spring.
When choosing a theme, Mu Yu accidentally let Tu Aotian submit the theme of "Romance".
Looking at the vibrant sea of flowers filling the screen, Mu Yu fell silent.
Ruan Mingchu patted his shoulder, "It's okay, we're just soaking in the hot springs."
He didn't like these fancy things either, but he had already made the choice and couldn't back out.
Mu Yu's silence wasn't because he disliked it, but because he was thinking about something he couldn't say.
The hot spring pool is for mixed-gender bathing, and although there are towels provided, Mu Yu still felt his blood boil just thinking about it.
Mu Yu patted his face to calm himself down.
