Chapter 314 - 8.41 First Blue Star - Guardian Class Zerg
The surprise of hearing that Feng Jing's chosen partner is Marshal Sirius had been outdone by the fact that Altair Sirius and Feng Jing are a fated pair. Everyone knows how rare a fated pair is. It can be said not everyone would be able to meet their fated pair in their whole lives and those who did meet can be considered a miracle.
A fated pair means their compatibility is 100 percent. The pair is able to share their spiritual energy with the other without any hindrance. It would be smooth sailing without any restrictions because of this their overall potential can be doubled. If the couple is both S ranks then they would be able to use the strength of a SS rank potential. They were like a cheat that the heavens love the most.
Learning that his adorable darling has a fated pair and it's the strongest yet youngest marshal famous for his beyond SSS rank potential, Alula Celeste was shocked speechless. Moreover, it is common knowledge that a fated pair's potential possessed close levels, Marshal Sirius is a famous SSS rank Sentinel which means Feng Jing has the same level of potential. A rare SSS rank Guide like he does.
Alula Celeste asked, "My darling are you an SSS Rank Guide?"
"Un. But I seem to have strength beyond SSS Rank. Sisi said so!" answered Feng Jing with a bright expression on his face.
"Amazing! As expected to our Xiao Jing!" said Alula Celeste as he finally put Feng Jing down from his embrace. He gently pulled the young man to sit with him on the couch which suddenly appeared in such a chamber. Then Feng Jing noticed the huge semi-humanoid Queen Bee Zerg bundled up its black silk string from a butterfly. Obviously, this is something Alula Celeste had done.
Feng Jing asked, "Grandpa Celes, is that the Queen Bee Zerg? Why is it that only her upper body is in human form but the lower half is still that of an insect?"
"Yes, she is the Queen Bee. The reason she is only half-human is that her royal bloodline is only half. Even her class is only semi-royal. You can kill her for points, she can be considered an upper-rank guardian class in points." said Alula Celeste.
Feng Jing said, "But this planet is supposed to be just an abandoned planet right? Why would there be guardians and royal classes zerg living here?"
"Well~ this is because they took this place as their vacation spot. It is near Zerg's territory and lots of human children visit here for training right? They treat them as precious snacks," replied Alula Celeste.
"Then how many are there in their whole race?" asked Feng Jing.
Alula Celeste answered, "As you know there are more than a hundred King and Queen Zergs. The one that leads and breeds them is a pair called Emperor and Empress Class Zergs, they possess strength that is SSS Class like humans. Those King and Queen Class are at SS rank. That's how it is normally but right now the Imperial Family of the Zerg Race now has two Emperor and Empress Class leading the whole race.
I pretended to be one of their children and was known as the sixth King whom they lost decades ago. They mistook me for one when they saw my merge form with my quantum beast. As you know I love to use my merge form when fighting and you know Little Blue loves to merge with me. This is why I chose to go undercover for the Empire. But right now even the Interstellar Federation is no longer safe. As there are spies from the zerg race pretending to be humans among the Elders.
Even though Lan had already removed the memories of me in the heads of those elders and also cleaned up my old records after my fake death, it doesn't change the fact that some spies had integrated themselves into the upper echelons of the Federation. I was planning on giving you the information I had gathered about the Zerg Race but upon hearing that you haven't visited your Grandpa Lan for a long time it would cause attention if you suddenly came visiting him all of the sudden. It's better for me to ask your partner for it."
"Eh? Why?" asked Feng Jing.
Alula Celeste said, "The said assassination and death of your Sentinel is even heard by the zerg race. That's how frightful he is for them. He had the strength to contend with the Emperor and Empress Zergs after all. It is also well-known that he and A'Lan don't get along with each other. Every time he came to meet A'Lan there would always be news of internal war in the Federation. Him coming over to meet your Grandpa Lan after his said death is more acceptable than you going to visit him after years of no contact.
At the very least the spies in the Federation wouldn't think that your Grandpa Lan is scheming something behind the back of the elders even put you in more danger. Once you revealed that you are a SSS Guide that is compatible with Altair Sirius the Royal Members of the Zerg Race would target you. They think that Guides are more dangerous than Sentinels. We can after all control the world's energies. They would think less if Altair Sirius is the one to meet your Grandpa Lan. Understand darling?"
"Wu~ I understand, Grandpa Celes," responded Feng Jing.
The Grandfather and Grandson spend a few more times talking with each other, especially about the decade they had spent unable to meet.
Meanwhile, at the Guardian's chamber, Qu Yeon and the other seven of the group had just finished killing the four high-level bees zerg they put under sleep. It still took a while for them to cut off their heads as the size was larger than them by a few times.
They are now taking a short rest before joining Feng Jing to the Queen Bee's Chamber.
Tang San, "Hah~ finally done!"
"Dismantling three building-sized zerg is really tiring," said Tang Yi.
Xue Ran saw Solaris Vega panting from being working with them nonstop for hours. He took out bottled water from his inventory, chilled it with ice essence, and passed it to Solaris Vega.
"Vega drinks this. I've chilled it for you," said Xue Ran.
Solaris Vega looked at the cooled bottle of water with his eyes full of thirst. "Thank you, Senior Ran!"
Seeing such an adorable state of his little junior, Xue Ran couldn't help but smile for a moment. Though it immediately disappears the moment he moves away from his eyes. When he turned around his head, Xue Ran saw the Twin Tang brothers looking at him while smiling as they held their warm bottle of water. Clearly, they all wanted to have their drinks cold like Solaris Vega.
STARES~
Tang San said, "Xue Ran~ can you please turn this cold too~" he is acting cute despite his large structure.
Xue Ran's eyebrow twitched when he saw two muscular men with the same face looking at him adoringly like an idol as they held their water bottles with two hands. Like those in a famous Japanese manga scene of a fangirl about to pass bottled water to their ideal prince. They both look hideous yet shameless. When Qu Yeon and Tang Si saw this they couldn't help but avert their eyes but didn't forget to roll over their bottles towards the twins as well.
Xue Ran couldn't stop himself from clicking his tongue, "Tsk!" with a wave of his hand the bottled water was cooled at the level that seems to have just been taken from a fridge. The other four happily drank their cold water as they even sighed with satisfaction.
SIGHS~
Bai Yuyan whispered to Feng Wu, "Sometimes they really don't act like seniors."
"That's normal. Just ignore... !!!!"
{Everyone activate your invisibility mode! Something is coming!!!} shouted Feng Wu through their mind.
This sudden exclamation from the current strongest guide in their group startled them but their hands moved faster than their brain and instantly turned on their invisibility mode.
They've all hid in some corner of the chamber waiting for something to come over but for a few minutes of waiting there is only silence in the area.
Tang San, "Junior Feng, did you feel things were wrong?" he asked.
"Shss, listen carefully," whispered Bai Yuyan.
Within that silent entrance, they had just used to go inside the chamber of the guardians and they suddenly heard the sounds of something flapping very fast. Yes, like how the sounds of insect wings flapping. When Everyone finally heard it, their expression turned serious especially for the Sentinels and Guides who are extremely sensitive to the other creatures' presence.
BUZZING~
The thoughts of Qu Yeon, 'What the hell is this aura? Some like this aren't supposed to be here in the middle region.'
Tang Yi murmured, "T-This... isn't this a Guardian Class Zerg. Yeon we need our mecha to fight this one."
"Any news from the leader, Junior Feng?" asked Qu Yeon.
Feng Wu shook his head and said, "There is none but... I was told we must clean up anything we will meet at the Guardian Chamber but he also told me to just leave everything about the Queen Bee Chamber to him and just focus on what is in front of us."
"Does he know there is a guardian class zerg in this hive? Wait! If this one here is really a guardian zerg doesn't that mean the one inside the Queen Bee's Chamber is a royal class one!?" exclaimed Tang Si.
Everyone showed a worried expression on their faces except Feng Wu and Xue Ran who knew the extent of Feng Jing's strength. He is a SSS rank Guide, even though his overall physical strength is weaker than an SSS rank Sentinel, his spiritual energy is stronger than an SSS rank Sentinel.
Xue Ran said, "Don't worry about Lord Feng. He is stronger than all of us. We should focus on defeating that Guardian Zerg. Vega, you'll go with me in my mecha."
Solaris Vega nodded his head in agreement as he couldn't really do anything but support the team with his talent as his fighting capabilities aren't even enough to protect the weakest awakened person.
"Okay but how about Wu-ge, Si-ge, and Yu-ge?" asked Solaris Vega worriedly.
Tang Si gently pats the innocent bun's head, "I will stay in the same mecha with A'Yeon. Thanks for worrying about me, Xiao Vega."
"I'm an S potential. I can control Mecha just enough. Don't worry Xiao Vega." said Bai Yuyan. Feng Wu didn't say anything but he at least nodded at the child.
Qu Yeon commanded, "Get ready your mecha we would drag the Guardian Class Zerg outside the hive and fight it there."
Solaris Vega said, "Please be careful everyone."
"We will. Let's go!"
Then everyone brought out their mechas. Tang Si went inside his partner's mecha while Solaris Vega went to Xue Ran's Mecha. Now, six mecha of varying color appeared out of nowhere which surprised the Guardian Class Zerg.
KKKKKKRRRRRRRRRRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!
