1. Ive Been Captured ?

Transfer to the new world complete. Memory transfer in progress.

This time, Xie He transmigrated to an interstellar world. However, this interstellar world was not at all peaceful. This was because there was a huge, extremely terrifying monsterthe Empire! Wherever the Empire went, they would enslave all life and plunder all resources. No one could fight against the iron fist of the Empire. It mercilessly engulfed everything in its path to expansion. It suppressed all rebellion. The entire galaxy was enshrouded by its horrifying shadow.

In this world, Xie He was an ordinary ex-officer of the Sea-Blue

Planetary Systems

royal household named Loren. His life had been ordinary and steady, but was all destroyed ten years ago when this isolated, idyllic land of beauty was invaded by the Empire. That moment was like the arrival of the end of the world.

Sea-Blue Planetary Systems royal family fought to their deaths, but, they could not stop the Empires encroachment. In the end, the royal family initiated the self-destruction sequence of their entire planetary system so that the Empire would not be able to seize their resources. Very few people managed to escape from this gigantic explosion. Loren was one of them.

He had lost his country, his friends, and his family. He had lost everything and escaped. During this difficult escape, Lorens genes awakened and he became an Evolved Humanan evolved being that stood at the pinnacle of all lifeforms!

Because of Lorens evolution, he was able to successfully lead his group of survivors in evading the Empires pursuit time and time again. After being on the run for six years, he was finally admitted into the Hope Federation.

There were innumerable planetary systems that had been crushed by the Empires iron fists, and from these planetary systems, there were always a few survivors. These people gradually gathered together to form the Hope Federation. In order to fight and overthrow the Empires oppressive regime, they accepted all refugees that had no home to return to. They incessantly fought to the death against the Empire as well.

As one of the few Evolved Humans, Loren not only had an immensely strong physique and tenacious mind, but he could also use the most powerful mechas and wars.h.i.+ps. He very quickly became the most famous soldier in the Hope Federation. Every time he led a platoon to ambush the Empire, they would be able to successfully escape retaliation. For a while, his reputation was explosive. He became the number one G.o.d of War and received strong support from the Hope Federation. He was the star of the Federation.

Although Loren was formidable, in front of a colossus like the Empire, his strength was actually insignificant. The main reason why the Hope Federation hyped him up so much was because they wanted him to instill hope in everyones hearts, to tell everyone that the Empire wasnt invincible, and that no matter what despair they face, they should not abandon hope and resistance!

Xie HeBaby.

444Im here! ()/ Host

dada

, have you finished combing through your memories?

Xie HeYes. Whos my target this time?

444The Empires Crown Prince, Lance!

Xie HeHehe.

444Wh-whats wrong? (:)_When he hears Host dada go hehe, he feels really afraid!

Xie HeNothing. I like challenges. ?

Xie He stood up and discovered that he was in a room constructed from a silvery-white metal. It was a room within his wars.h.i.+p.

Yesterday, the Hope Federation had received a message from a secret spy that was hidden within the top stratum of the Empire. The fleet that was to be sent on an expedition to the Nara Planetary System would be personally led by Crown Prince Lance. For Lance to leave the Empires Capital Planet and come to the distant Nara Planetary System was a golden opportunity bestowed to them by Heaven itself. If they took advantage of this opportunity and killed Lance, it will be a heavy loss to the Empire! The Hope Federation would certainly not let go of this great opportunity to attack the Empire. They made a prompt decision to dispatch someone to kill him! Loren volunteered to lead the mission without any hesitation. He tailed the Empires fleet from behind. Right now, he was on his way to a.s.sa.s.sinate Lance.

444RightHost

dada

, theres something important that I need to tell you!

Xie HeTell me, Baby. Smile.JPG

444This is a higher plane! If you successfully capture your target, you will receive three times the experience points. Thats 30,000 experience points! ()/

Xie HeOh? I dont remember you telling me this before.

444I also only found out after arriving in this world. Before, I didnt have any experience in higher planes either.He had never come out to play before. Host

dada

was his first host. QAQ

Xie HeI understand. ?

The corner of Xie Hes lips rose. This was good news. Moreover, it just so happened to confirm his conjecture: This immense interstellar world was not the same as the previous lower planes. Therefore, the experience points earned would naturally not be the same. It seemed that he could reap a good reward this time.

He entered the washroom and looked into the mirror. Before him was a tall, handsome man with sharp features. He had soft, short brown hair and blue eyes like the sea. He gave people an impression of being a resolute and firm man. When he didnt smile, he looked solemn. When he did, it was like suns.h.i.+ne emitted from himhe was like a gentle spring breeze caressing your face.

Xie He raised a hand and took a look. His hands were slender and powerful. His honey-coloured skin was smooth and s.e.xy. However, when he opened his palm, he discovered that he had thick calluses. Although he had a handsome appearance, at the core he was a soldier willing to risk life and limb. Xie Hes expression changed. He grabbed a metal cup on the washroom counter and used a bit of strength in his hand. The metal easily bent. This was an Evolved Human, ah.

Truly rare Xie He raised an eyebrow. He left the washroom and turned on a holographic recording. This was the top-secret footage that the spy in the Empires upper stratum had sent. All of the information pertaining to the members of the Empire was extremely cla.s.sified, let alone the most n.o.ble Lance. The spy had recorded Lances image so that the Hope Federation could succeed in killing Lance. Xie He thought that this spys ident.i.ty wasnt simple. Dont just think of this as a trifling recording. They were even able to smoothly send this to the Hope Federation. One should not look down on their ability.

Before he could think more of this, a holographic image appeared in the middle of the room. Xie He was a bit excited when he saw it.

Before him was a man in a white

changpao

that was inlaid with gold. His long, black hair reached his waist. There was a callousness and fickleness in his long and narrow golden phoenix eyes. He was as handsome as a deity. When he looked at you, you could not conjure up any thoughts of resisting or blaspheming him. However, this didnt include Xie He.

As soon as he took sight of the other, Xie He wanted to press this little vixen down. He was really to his liking!

This was his type.

After transmigrating through so many worlds, he would finally capture a target that was really his type. Xie He felt very gratified.

To tell the truth, he was a bit worried in the beginning. After all, this interstellar world had all sorts of strange and novel races. If the target was someone he really wasnt attracted to, it would be troublesome. After all, his only criteria when choosing bed partners was their face But after looking at the recording, Xie He had no more concerns. He was eager to go!

Xie HeBaby, is this world my reward? Smile.JPG

444(v) Hm?Why couldnt he understand what hes saying?

Xie HeTheres only one bit that I feel regretful over.

444What?

Xie HeNot telling you. ?

444_(:)_

The only thing he was feeling regretful about was that Loren was a straight male. Moreover, even if he were to bend, he would absolutely have no interest in Lance. This was truly a tragic story.

Only, Xie He had always been adept at adjusting himself. Although he felt a bit regretful when thinking about his future s.e.x life, at the very least, the others appearance suited his tastes. He felt very enthusiastic just by looking at the others face!

Xie He familiarized himself with his body. He was just about to go out when his communications device sounded. He picked it up and saw that it was Lorens good friend, Cecil.

Cecil was one of the Hope Federations five great

Representatives

Although the Hope Federation was a resistance organization, no matter what kind of place it was, there would still be a division of power. Some of the planetary systems and kingdoms that had been destroyed by the Empire were weak, like Lorens Sea-Blue Planetary System. However, there were also very formidable ones like Cecils planetary system, Lat. As the only surviving Prince of the Lat Kingdom, Cecil had entered the Hope Federation with his army after being forced to leave his home. His resources and extremely big military expanded the Hope Federation. Very soon, he became the youngest to become a Representative of the Federation.

After Loren entered the Federation, he very quickly made his excellence known. After fighting side-by-side once, he and Cecil became best friends. Cecil had been against Loren taking on this dangerous mission. He thought that it would be too dangerous. However, Loren was firm in wanting to do this. Moreover, there was indeed no one more suitable for this than him. Cecil could not stop him and could only watch as Loren left.

The call came through. A young man with grey hair and eyes appeared in the video feed. He wasnt particularly good-looking, but people couldnt help but develop goodwill towards him. He had the charisma of a natural leader. He looked at Xie He profoundly, a heavy concern within his eyes, Loren, are you there yet?

Xie He said, Yes.

Cecils lips parted but he seemed to hesitate. He said, If you cant do it, come back, ba. After all, your life is more important. Dont try to show off.

Xie He looked at him, expression changing. He suddenly said, Are you that worried about me?

A suspicious flush appeared on Cecils face for a moment, Yes. Arent we good friends? Youve also saved my life and youre also very important to all of us. If you cant do it this time, there will always be other chances later.

Xie He gave him a look and corrected him, No, there will never be another opportunity like this.

Cecils eyes dimmed. There was extreme reluctance in his voice, But Im really worried about you.

Im heading out soon. Xie He paused and then fixed his eyes on the other with a smile. If I dont come back alive, can you send my remains back to the Sea-Blue Planetary System? Even if theres nothing left there, it is still the only home Ive ever known.

Cecil pursed his lips tightly. It seemed like he wanted to say something.

However, Xie He had already hung up the phone with a bang.

There were some things that you should only touch upon, rather than expand on. If you said too much, it wouldnt be as moving.

Xie HeBaby, could you see his Favourability Value through video?

444Yes. Cecils Favourability Value is 80.444 thought that he was becoming more and more awesome, ne. Even without Host

dada

asking him, he gave him the answer he needed. ()/

Xie HeVery good.

Loren was pretty slow in this aspect. He had always considered Cecil to be his comrade-in-arms, but Cecils intentions towards him were obviously not as simple.

Only, Xie He could not go back. If he missed todays chance, it would be an extremely difficult task to approach Lance. Obviously, he had to take the initiative to send himself to his door, heh.

Therefore, he hadnt been lying when he said that there would never be another chance like this again.

Xie He left the cabin and headed towards the control station. His second-in-command, Walker, nervously told him, Captain, were extremely close to the other party!

Can we get just a bit closer? Xie He narrowed his eyes slightly.

Walker looked hard-pressed. The other partys detector is much more advanced than ours. If we get any closer, well be discovered.

Xie He muttered to himself. The Empires arms and technology far surpa.s.sed that of the Hope Federation. If they used brute force, they would have no chance of winning. It seems that they only had that one choice.

Loren had seized one of the Empires high-level mechas in the past. He had used a special method to block off its signal so that the Empire wouldnt realize that they had already lost it. He could maneuver that mecha and pretend to be a part of the other party. He would then be able to noiselessly infiltrate the Empires fleet. Only, he would have to do this alone.

Ill go, Xie He said in a low voice, Wait here for me. If I dont return in half an hour, leave immediately!

Walker had been with him for a long time. He could instantly tell what Xie He was planning. He immediately refuted, How could we do that?! Its not the same this time! Since the Empires Crown Prince is there, the security will certainly be even tighter than it has been in the past. Its too dangerous for you to go alone!

Its not all that different, and this is also our only choice. Xie He stared into the distance, expression resolute. He said to Walker, And its easier to escape if Im on my own.

But Walker was still unsure.

Xie He looked at him. Unless you have some other plan?

Dejection appeared within Walkers eyes. They couldnt even get close to the others fleet.

Xie He laughed. Relax. I will come back this time, just as I have before.

After saying this, he took big strides towards the weapons bay.

Within the weapons bay was a line of mechas. Amongst them, the pitch-black mecha with an insignia of a two-headed snake was the most eye-catching. This was the Empires high-grade series mecha. It was the mecha Loren had seized when he led an ambush on one of the Empires bases.

Xie He looked at this huge, ice-cold metallic creation that was bursting with power. He felt a small surge of emotion.

All men revered power. When he was in the hospital in the last world, he had watched a drama from an interstellar world. Now, in this world, he could personally lay his hands on these steel toys. A light flashed through Xie Hes eyes. He kicked off the ground with great force and directly jumped four or five metres into the air. He grabbed onto the mechas arms and climbed up, nimbly jumping into the c.o.c.kpit! He caressed the control panel. Because he had received this bodys capabilities and memories, everything was very smooth and easy for him. It wasnt difficult at all.

Walker stood below. He watched, and as Xie He was about to leave,suddenly shouted with tears in his eyes, Captain, you will definitely come back! Right?!

Xie He nodded. Right.

After he said this, he closed the door to the c.o.c.kpit without hesitation. He turned on the invisibility system and quietly left the stars.h.i.+p.

Xie HeBaby, when you levelled up to level 4 last time, you unlocked a few store items. Help me exchange for one of them.

444OK. Which one do you want? O(_)O~

Xie HeThe Current World 99% Pain Barrier.

444( |||)That one? Its really expensive, ah! It costs 5,000 experience points!

Xie HeIts because you can only block out 40% of the pain, ah, Baby. Smile.JPG

444

444But all the systems are like this, ah. Its only the legendary level 10 systems that can block out 100% of the pain. /(o)/~~

Xie HeBaby, Im not blaming you, ah. I just want you to help me exchange for it. Dont worry. Its just 5,000 experience points, thats all. Ill earn much more back. ?

444(v) Mn! Exchange complete The Current World 99% Pain Barrier!

Xie He didnt say anything else. He had no interest in the systems regulations. No matter what it was, nothing can be accomplished if there were no rules in place. Besides, for most people, a 100% pain barrier would only hamper their acting skills.

Only, this system store was still committing daylight robbery, making big bucks as usual. At most, the system store only provided a 99% pain barrier. Moreover, it was only effective for a single world. Even so, it was very expensive, costing 5,000 experience points. Only a level 10 system could provide a true 100% pain barrier. However, level 10 systems According to what 444 had said about how they required double the experience points for every level up, it would require 5,110,000 experience points to reach level 10. That was obviously a distant goal.

Although 5,000 experience points was a bit expensive, this was a higher plane. If he wanted to obtain rewards, he had to be willing to spend. Xie He would never be one to hold such laughable thoughts as wis.h.i.+ng for a freebie when he was unwilling to invest. He could only pay a higher capital to reap a higher reward.

Xie He maneuvered the mecha, soundlessly infiltrating the others fleet. He successfully arrived at the mothers.h.i.+p. However, just as he was about to approach the s.h.i.+p gate, he was blocked by a patrolling mecha. The other sent a communication request.

Xie Hes eyes darkened. However, he only hesitated for a second before accepting the request decisively.

A stern voice came through the communications device, Which squadron do you belong to? Why have you come to the mothers.h.i.+p?

Xie He remained calm as he said, Im part of the third squadron. Captain Saka ordered me to come over.

The other side asked, To do what?

A cold light flickered through Xie Hes eyes. He hadnt planned on really being able to persuade the other. He had only done this to buy time! Xie He suddenly activated his thrusters to the max. At the same time, he aimed his laser cannon at the mothers.h.i.+ps weakest transport pa.s.sages gate and shot at it! The mecha that had intercepted him didnt have time to react and the laser shot through it!

Xie Hes mecha heavily knocked against the damaged gate. Immediately after, he jumped out of the c.o.c.kpit, abandoned his mecha, and directly rushed through the transport pa.s.sage.

He had only left his mecha for one minute when the remains of his mecha were surrounded by the Empires soldiers! At the same time, an ear-piercing alarm could be heard everywhere!

Xie He stealthily knocked out a soldier and put on their clothes. He put on the helmet and then calmly turned around and left.

He had chosen to use brute strength to barge in because there had been no other choice and also because he wanted to use this chance to ascertain where Lance was. This mothers.h.i.+p was immense. He didnt know the layout well. If he searched blindly, it would not be possible to find Lance in a short period of time. Moreover, there was no way he could conceal his ident.i.ty for long. His disguise would be uncovered very quickly Therefore, he might as well alert his enemy. The Empires military would then immediately go to protect the most important person.

Indeed, very soon, from Xie Hes communications device came an order, Attention all units, quickly proceed to the third bridge! Quickly head to the third bridge!

Xie He followed the crowd without any hesitation. No one suspected him.

Only, when he was near, he finally encountered someone that interrogated him. That person took a look at Xie He and asked, Which squad are you from? Whats your name?

Xie He was just about to respond when there suddenly came an intense explosion from behind! That person interrogating him was immediately distracted. He didnt pay much attention to what Xie He said and waved his hand, Quickly, go! Next one!

Xie He lowered his head and went through. That was his mecha. Before he escaped, he had turned on the self-destruct sequence. It would help him divert attention and delay for time.

Everything occurred very smoothly. Xie He had only taken a few steps when he saw a big group of soldiers who were wearing the same uniform as him gathered outside. Meanwhile, on the s.p.a.cious ground before them, a group of high-ranking officers escorted an extremely handsome man through.

The man wore a silver-lined uniform with his collar raised. It was well-fitted to his tall and slender body. His black, wool cape fell onto the floor; his long black hair was tied behind his head; his lips were raised into a smile that was not quite a smile; and his golden eyes swept across the scene. Everyone couldnt help but lower their heads. The mans face had no fear or dread. It was like he was only going for a leisurely stroll.

Meanwhile, the high-ranking military officers at his side were all donning expressions of terror!

Xie He narrowed his eyes. Suddenly, his right hand trembled! An alloy bow instantly appeared in his hand. There was no hesitation, no uncertainty! If he waited any longer, he would not have another chance like this! Before the people at his side could react, Xie Hes arrow pointed at Lance!

Lance seemed to sense something. He turned to gaze over there nearly at the same time! For a moment, their eyes met!

Xie He looked at the other. The only thing revealed under the helmet was a pair of eyes coloured like the deep sea. It was like there were stars twinkling within them. They were so bright that one could not look away. The corner of his lips raised, and his finger moved. A sharp arrow shot towards Lance at the speed of light!

This arrow directly pierced the shoulder of the officer who s.h.i.+elded Lance! Then, it continued through towards Lance as if un.o.bstructed! A glint of some unclear emotion flickered through Lances eyes. His slender, pale fingers made a clenching motion and actually managed to grab hold of the arrow! A crack, and the incomparably solid alloy arrow was broken into two as it fell to the ground.

He was also an extremely powerful Evolved Human!

Everything had occurred in an instant! Only after the dust had settled did the group of officers escorting him react. There was horror on their faces!

This arrow was Xie Hes only chance Actually, this ending was not unexpected. As the Empires Crown Prince, how could he be delicate? The Empires internal struggle within the royal family was a bloodbath. Only the strong would survive.

In reality, Loren also knew this. His a.s.sa.s.sination would very likely end with his death. This was why Cecil didnt want him to come. However, even if it was like this, he would not retreat in fear. People would not fear death and would instead fight because of their faith!

He turned around and tried to break through the crowd. These soldiers could not stop Xie He. However, he was in the enemys nest, after all. Very soon, his body fell to the earth, unable to endure the countless shots fired at him. Because of the pain barrier, he didnt feel much.

Xie He knelt on the ground with one knee. One of his hands pressed against his abdomen. Blood flowed through his fingers Everyone suddenly fell quiet. Xie He looked up and saw that the crowd had divided into two as if controlled by Moses.

Lance leisurely walked over to Xie He. He lowered his head and gazed at the man half-kneeling before him. Like an Emperor inspecting his knight, he raised a hand to gently take off Xie Hes helmet. He then raised the others chin. There was an apathetic, cold glint in his golden eyes. He smiled. Isnt this the Federations star? An honourable guest has come to visit. Dont worry Ill make sure to entertain you well.
