    Chapter 95: Zerg 28 “If I don’t do this, where am I going to find them…”

    After a moment of silence, Arnold ultimately chose not to continue hiding the truth. He knew Alvin’s temper; if he didn’t tell him, Alvin likely wouldn’t agree to submit the application for using a mech.

    Moreover, there were some intentions he couldn’t quite explain… A touch of nostalgia gradually crept into Arnold’s eyes.

    He remembered the evening breeze of that time, how gently it caressed their bodies, just like the golden-haired youth’s tender movements, bringing an unprecedented shiver to his body, and those beautiful eyes, like the world’s most precious sapphires, which should have been filled with starlight, but only reflected his figure alone.

    Only then did Arnold realize how deeply he remembered that night of pleasure five years ago.

    Amoris had become a part of his life.

    Facing Alvin’s urging gaze, Arnold finally slowly revealed the truth: “The person from five years ago…”

    “He… isn’t a male.”

    “? Arnold, are you kidding me?” Naturally, Alvin didn’t believe him. He frowned, thinking Arnold was being evasive.

    Besides a male, who else could heal a female’s mental sea riot?

    Moreover, given Arnold’s condition, ordinary males were useless; it would have to be at least an A-grade male.

    And in such a short time, probably only an S-grade male could do it.

    That was why he had always assumed that Arnold and Kaster had secretly gotten together, although now it seemed that wasn’t the case.

    “Alvin, sub-males can also possess mental power.” Facing Alvin’s doubts, Arnold didn’t show any panic. He simply stated the facts as he knew them. “It’s not unheard of in the history of the Zerg. You should know that too.”

    Alvin was speechless.

    Indeed, there had been cases of sub-males possessing mental power in the history of the Zerg. But what a small probability was that? And Arnold just happened to stumble upon it?

    Moreover, those few sub-males in history who had awakened mental power all had the lowest grades, D and E. Those two grades were absolutely incapable of healing Arnold’s mental sea.

    Absolutely impossible! Not to mention healing, even making Arnold feel a little better was completely impossible.

    But looking at Arnold’s expression, he didn’t seem to be lying. And Alvin had known Arnold for so many years, and he considered himself to understand him, knowing that Arnold wasn’t someone who would lie about something like this.

    And even if he were going to fabricate a lie, there was no need to make up such an unlikely event; it was too clumsy and completely meaningless.

    But if it wasn’t a male, who exactly was this person?

    Suddenly, a particularly handsome face flashed through Alvin’s mind.

    He hadn’t seen the person in person, but he wasn’t unfamiliar with the name. Why else would Arnold have brought someone to his house to stay for over a month?

    Alvin apologized to his past self for actually thinking they were just relatives.

    But if his guess was correct, and it really was this person… Thinking of the current situation, Alvin’s expression didn’t improve; instead, it became even more worried.

    “Then he… could he be…” Alvin didn’t know how to continue. Arnold’s confession connected all the clues, and everything became clear. Others didn’t know the reason for Arnold’s changes in recent years, but now he did.

    Everything stemmed from that accident five years ago. Thinking of the twisted and terrifying scar on Arnold’s back, Alvin was afraid that saying that name would evoke Arnold’s sadness.

    Judging from the fact that Arnold had never chosen to remove the scar in the past five years, he hadn’t let go of that person.

    Seeing Alvin’s expression, Arnold knew that he had probably guessed the answer, so he didn’t hide it anymore, nodding to confirm Alvin’s thoughts:

    “That’s right. He is… Amoris.”

    This almost taboo name was mentioned in such a way for the first time. Without the imagined excitement, Arnold instead felt an unprecedented calm.

    Amoris was like a brightly colored poisoned wine. Knowing it was poisonous, he still resolutely raised his glass and sipped. Now, with the passage of time, this beautiful poisoned wine had not lost its flavor, but had become even more mellow.

    But Alvin was in trouble.

    A general of the military and an SSS-level wanted fugitive – no one would believe such a combination if it were spread.

    But the person who could heal Arnold’s mental sea riot was Amoris.

    What to do?

    Alvin felt that he was worrying about things he shouldn’t be worrying about for this salary.

    Arnold didn’t continue to pay attention to Alvin’s complicated thoughts. He had said everything he needed to say, and now it was Alvin’s turn to fulfill his promise.

    “Send my order. From now on, Raymond will lead the team to guard the Kaon Route, you will lead the team to be responsible for the Deno Route, the Siobot Route and the auction venue will be my responsibility, and Kaster will lead people as a mobile force to be ready to support at any time.”

    Einos Star has three space ports, corresponding to three routes. Among them, Einos Space Port has the largest traffic, corresponding to the Siobot route, which is the one that Amoris previously entered Einos Star from.

    As for other ways to leave Einos Star, it’s not like there aren’t any, but there are too many gravels near Einos Star, and there are several extremely unstable spaces. If you are not careful, you will hit them, and the risk factor is too great. But just in case, Arnold still arranged for Kaster to lead the team to support their actions.

    “Yes!” Alvin saluted and was about to go out to give the order when he suddenly received a communication.

    After reading it, his eyebrows were twisted together, looking quite comical.

    Seeing his expression, Arnold asked, “What’s wrong?”

    Alvin’s expression became even more complicated.

    “Received a message that the Second Prince and the Third Prince will arrive tomorrow.”

    Three days later.

    Amoris, located in the third-floor box of the auction venue, stood in front of the huge window. From here, he could see everyone in the venue except for the others who were in the box like him, but others could not see his figure.

    Seeing a familiar silver color appear in the center of the lobby on the first floor, the corners of Amoris’s mouth could not help but curl into a smile, but his face became even more gloomy.

    Arnold had come after all. It seemed that his previous feeling was correct.

    At this moment, another playful voice came from his back: “He is Arnold? He’s quite good-looking. You won’t soften your heart, will you, Amoris?”

    The person who came, who was also Phil, stepped out of the darkness and walked to Amoris.

    The huge glass reflected the figures of the two. Compared to five years ago, Amoris was a little taller, and his hair was also much longer, from the position of the collarbone to the waist now. As for the bangs, perhaps because they haven’t been taken care of these past two days, they are slightly blocking his eyes, making his face look even more sharp and profound.

    Amoris ignored Phil’s teasing words, his sight unchanged, while reaching out his right hand towards Phil: “Where’s the potion? Give it to me.”

    Phil heard the words and put away his previous frivolous look. He took out a dark red potion from the space item he was carrying, which was contained in a syringe. On closer inspection, something seemed to be moving inside the potion, as if it were alive. Coupled with the strange color, it didn’t look like a good thing.

    Phil handed the syringe forward, but when he was about to touch Amoris, his fingers turned and took the syringe back.

    He frowned slightly, his tone was unprecedentedly dignified and serious: “Are you sure? No one has ever used it, and even I don’t know what side effects this potion will have.”

    “Once it’s injected, there’s no room for regret.”

    Amoris didn’t comment, but his right hand, which he still hadn’t taken back, silently expressed his determination.

    Helpless, Phil solemnly handed the syringe to Amoris.

    Amoris took the syringe from Phil’s hand. He held the syringe in the air, staring at the ominous liquid inside, and then exhausted the air inside.

    A drop of red liquid overflowed from the tip of the needle, then slid down the needle to the ground.

    Amoris’s expression remained unchanged, as if the person who was about to inject this potion was not him.

    Then, he unbuttoned the top two buttons of his shirt.

    The auction had already begun.

    In front of the huge glass window, the golden-haired man stared at the front, and the glass window reflected his shadow, as if twin children were facing each other from afar. He stuck the syringe into the artery located on his neck, and he didn’t even blink his eyes, slowly pushing all the liquid into his body.

    Then, he pulled out a sarcastic smile on his lips as light as cherry blossoms, and the voice as beautiful as a mountain stream slowly sounded in the room:

    “If I don’t do this, where am I going to find them an S-class male?”
