Lin Yi came back to his senses from his thoughts and his gaze fell on Qin Nuo's face which was frozen on the screen again.
He leaned his elbows on the sofa, his fingertips curled into fists, and supported his chin in a casual posture, still looking up at Qin Nuo who was almost in front of him. There was not much emotion in his eyes, but he revealed a little interest that he did not conceal.
Lin Yi looked at Qin Nuo with pure appreciation without considering the physiological mechanism. He saw from his slightly red lips to his emerald green eyes, as well as every inch of his heroic edges and corners, and his perfect body wrapped in the military uniform.
Lin Yi's fingertips unconsciously brushed across the soft surface of the sofa, and then he lowered his eyes to block the bright light inside, but a hint of joyful smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.
Qin Nuo, the first heir of the Williams family, the marshal of the First Legion, and the strongest alpha in the First Empire.
Any one of these colorful titles would be enough to make someone feel proud if given to someone else, but when they were piled on one person, Lin Yi couldn't help but be impressed.
He turned off the video and continued to move his eyes downwards.
There is obviously very little video footage of Qin Nuo. The following content is all video footage of several battles that Qin Nuo participated in.
Although there has been no major war threatening the empire in the past fifty years, there have been frequent conflicts with rivals from other countries on marginal planets. The barren planet where the First Legion led by Qin Nuo is stationed bears the brunt of the attack and is the rear base of the main battlefield.
Lin Yi clicked on one of them with a casual browsing mentality. He originally just wanted to take a look, but he didn't expect that as soon as he entered the video, the surrounding environment captured him deeply.
The reality experience mode of the video has not been exited yet. As Lin Yi clicked to watch, the room he was in turned into a battleship in an instant. Through the transparent window not far away, he could clearly see that there were enemy warships surrounding them in front of him. Without giving him any time to adapt, the five warships on the opposite side fired a cannonball at the same time, aiming at their warship.
The two soldiers in the cockpit did not retreat at all. They flexibly manipulated their warship and shuttled back and forth in the limited space.
However, even so, the battleship was hit by several shells, which seriously affected its flight speed. The impact of the explosion also caused the battleship to shake violently.
The space was pitch black, and the only light was from the enemy's warships and gun muzzles, like the horns of death. Two soldiers in the cockpit were concentrating on operating their aircraft, and one of them said calmly, "We're about to find their main battleship."
The other one was operating the joystick, looking straight ahead with a stern look on his face.
The battleship continued to shake, and the voice of the intelligent computer rang out in the cabin: "Safety warning, safety warning, all personnel in the cabin, please leave the battleship immediately."
The soldier driving the battleship looked up at this time. Lin Yi saw a young and resolute face. He said to the intelligent computer: "Activate the number three record and report the situation of the spacecraft to me."
The warning sound of the intelligent computer stopped, and it paused and said: "The spacecraft only has 10% of its power left. The outer defense has failed. Are you sure to activate the third backup?"
"yes."
"The self-destruct system has been activated, one minute countdown." The intelligent computer said, "Brave warriors, it is my honor to cooperate with you."
Another soldier who had been concentrating on the operating panel in front of him slapped the panel with joy at this time, "Found it."
Intelligent computer: "The battleship is advancing at full speed."
The badly damaged warship seemed to have regained its vitality at this moment, and plunged into the vast darkness, and then slammed into the tail of the enemy ship in a suicidal manner, and in a way that the opponent had never expected, it turned into two balls of fire that burned violently and exploded continuously in space.
Lin Yi's heart seemed to be hit hard, and gradually all that remained in his sight was the endless darkness of space.
The video ended and he exited the video automatically, but Lin Yi couldn't calm down. Although he knew that war was brutal, he had never witnessed the tragedy of war because he was born in a peaceful era.
In those few short minutes just now, he was actually standing in the cockpit, witnessing from a first-person perspective the choices made by the two soldiers under siege, and witnessed their fall and destruction with his own eyes. The impact of this feeling was so great that Lin Yi could hardly even describe it accurately in words.
The silence of space blended with the silent explosions of fire. With the surging emotions in his heart, Lin Yi sat on the sofa almost motionless for the entire afternoon, concentrating on writing this intense war song.
When he put down the virtual stylus, shook his sore wrists, and moved his stiff neck, the nutrient solution in his stomach had been completely digested. Fortunately, Little A was already standing by, chubby, with a cup of nutrient solution on his head.
Lin Yi picked up the nutrient solution and took a sip, then stood up, took the cup in his hand, and walked to the balcony.
At this time, it was already completely dark outside the window, and there was a half-real, half-fake moon hanging in the sky, which was most likely a fiction.
Lin Yi turned around and asked Xiao A who was following behind him: "Will the air outside be very harmful to my body?"
Lin Yi still remembered what Xiao A said in the morning. It said that the C-level air outside would pollute the indoor environment.
Little A hesitated, obviously not wanting to say anything, but since Lin Yi had asked it, it had no authority not to answer, so it could only slowly say, "C-level air will be a little drier, but it will not cause any substantial damage to the owner's body."
Lin Yi stared at Xiao A in silence for a while, then suddenly asked, "Did you deliberately scare me this morning in order to get me to buy a higher grade of air?"
See through it at a glance.
During the time that Lin Yi was staring at it, Little A had been silently backing away, as if it wanted to run away. The yellow waves on its round head were flashing quickly and regularly.
"Yes, Master." Xiao A said, and the tablet's voice seemed a little nervous. "Master, please don't blame me. That was programmed."
"Is the program set up to let the intelligent brain do sales?" Lin Yi asked back.
Little A was even more embarrassed, but after some hesitation he said, "Because... the owner bought the lowest-grade Little A, and it was during the discount period, so the system defaulted to the promotion program."
Lin Yi, who had forgotten how many times his intelligent brain had reminded him that he was a pauper, pursed his lips and looked at Xiao A speechlessly.
The speed of the flashing yellow electric waves on Xiao A's head slowed down a bit, but because he was unable to judge Lin Yi's emotions at the moment, he could only collect the reactions of the owners of the same type of intelligent computers when they encountered the same situation in the system. The results were either they were furious or angry, and some even smashed the intelligent computer's matching machine body on impulse.
As a result, facing the silent Lin Yi, Xiao A almost trembled.
Lin Yi took a step forward, bent his knees slightly in front of Xiao A, and half-knelt down, just at eye level with Xiao A.
Lin Yi stretched out his hand, and the little round head of A couldn't help but dodge downwards, as if afraid that Lin Yi would slap it and break it. Unexpectedly, Lin Yi just gently touched its head, and then said: "I know, I will upgrade your package when I have money."
Woo, little A felt relieved. If it was really the upgraded one, it would be so emotional that it would cry out.
Since the air outside was fine, Lin Yi prepared to go out.
He went back to the bathroom and looked in the mirror. Because he had eaten well and rested well, his complexion was much better than yesterday.
Lin Yi changed his clothes and put on a hat. It wasn't that he was overly cautious, but the original owner had a reputation of being hated by everyone. If he was recognized outside, he would probably be beaten up.
According to memory, there were gyms on several floors of the apartment. Lin Yi took the elevator to the designated floor and saw a gym. Through the glass, he could see many alphas working out. Lin Yi walked along the corridor and didn't see any omegas. There were only one or two betas, who were squeezed into a corner and showed uncomfortable expressions from time to time because of the oppressive aura of the alphas.
Lin Yi walked forward and naturally attracted many stares from alphas along the way. However, because there was no trace of pheromones on his body and he walked with a calm demeanor, no one recognized that Lin Yi was an omega. They just thought he was an inconspicuous beta who came here for exercise.
Lin Yi found a treadmill in the corner, set the basic data, and then started running slowly. Because he could not feel the pressure from those alphas unconsciously, Lin Yi did not feel any discomfort. It was basically like playing in the gym on Earth.
He did some exercises according to his plan and stayed in the gym for more than an hour before he was ready to leave.
Just as he turned his head to straighten his clothes, he saw several alphas nearby looking at him with contempt. When they noticed Lin Yi looking over, not only did they not look away, they even raised their voices and said, "Look at this beta's physique. How can he have the confidence to stand with us?"
Two other betas were standing in the distance, looking at Lin Yi cautiously, with sympathy on their faces but not daring to interrupt, for fear that the fight would shift to them. They all looked like they were being bullied.
Lin Yi placed his fingertips on his wrist and touched the switch of the intelligent brain, then raised his head and looked at the other party calmly: "Sir, may I ask if what you just said means that beta is not worthy of using this gym, or that beta is not worthy of being in the same room with alpha, or both?"
It was not the first time that those alphas with vicious smiles bullied people with words, but it was the first time that they encountered a beta like Lin Yi who was neither afraid nor panicked.
But betas are betas after all. It is almost their innate characteristic to have a low sense of presence and be easily bullied. Even the imperial legislation prohibiting related discriminatory behavior has not changed the situation.
Facing Lin Yi's question, the person who spoke confidently replied: "Both, how about it?"
Lin Yi smiled, "It's nothing, but my intelligent brain has recorded our conversation just now. I will file a lawsuit against you for your verbal bullying of Beta. I hope you are mentally prepared."
Those alphas who were originally looking at Lin Yi with a smile and provocation were stunned. This was not only the first time they met a beta who dared to talk back, but also the first time in their lives that they met a beta who dared to be so tough.
The key point is that the conversation that Lin Yi recorded just now can indeed constitute evidence for filing a lawsuit, and it is basically a sure thing that will be added to their credit files immediately.
"you!"
Lin Yi took a step forward, his eyes slightly stern, his smile also a little colder: "Apologize and make way, or wait to receive a penalty notice."
Several betas in the distance were simply stunned, in their opinion, this kind of verbal bullying was not a big deal at all, which beta had not suffered this kind of humiliation? Besides... in fact, beta and alpha standing together were not good enough anyway.
But they also had to admit that Lin Yi's approach was simply too cool, and they could feel the same way.
The alphas looked at each other, and then the leader who had been talking, although very reluctant, thought that his credit record might be damaged because of such a small matter, he still gritted his teeth and said: "We were wrong just now, I apologize to you."
Lin Yi then showed a gentle smile again, waved his hand and said to them: "Let's forget it this time, see you tomorrow."
With that he strode forward and left the gym.
Leaving behind him a few alphas who were still unable to react, and a beta standing in a daze in the corner.
See you tomorrow, you big head ghost!
The alpha who started the provocation came to his senses, and if his younger brother hadn't held him back, he would have been so angry that he almost smashed the gym.
