Honey, let's lay an egg

Chapter 39 The Sudden Transformation Period

"Your Highness, the commander invites you to go over."

"Understood." Looking at the person who contacted him, Gu Qing nodded.

"Help me take care of Ke Liya, I'll be back soon." The first sentence was addressed to Lan Ya, and the latter sentence was naturally addressed to Ke Liya.

When she got to the central control room, she looked at the commander of the entire fleet in front of her. The other party had received the mission and escorted her.She is not very familiar with the other party, at least not as familiar as Gu Shuang.

"Your Highness." The other party said to her.

"What's the matter?" He specially asked her to come over. On this spaceship, she might be the most useless person.

"There is something that needs to be notified to you." The other party said.

"It's about going to the tenth star field. We will not directly reach the blue sea galaxy in the tenth star field, but will go to the ninth star field first, and finally from the ninth star field to the tenth star field." Go forward on the interstellar channel to the tenth star field."

"Didn't you say you went directly to the tenth star field? Why did you suddenly change the route?" Lu Qing frowned, she didn't know that she could change the route midway.

"This is His Majesty's order, and we are only carrying out the order. In addition, regarding this matter, His Majesty also said that we will notify you when we reach the space jump point."

"I see. Is there anything else?" She said, thinking about what her mother was going to do, but she didn't tell her about it until she had to go. Could it be that she was afraid that she would run away halfway? .

It has to be said that Lu Qing really thought about this problem, but finally gave up.She absolutely cannot escape the empire's search. Even her third highness may not be fully aware of how powerful the empire is.

Being able to intersect with several civilizations with ease, is definitely not as peaceful as it appears on the surface.

When Lu Qing went back, he didn't find Lan Ya in the original place. After asking Luo Xing, he found out that Lan Ya had brought Ke Liya back to the room.

"What happened?" she asked.

[I don’t know, Miss Lan Ya directly took Miss Ke Liya back, and Miss Ke Liya seemed to be in a coma. ] Luo Xing reported to her what happened after she left.

Lu Qing's expression was not very good, but this time it was so bad that people dared not stand in front of her when they saw it.

She strode towards the room assigned to her and Ke Liya, walking in a hurry, and her shoes made a sound of bumping on the ground.

"Lan Ya, I just heard Luo Xing say that you brought Ke Liya back? What's going on?" As soon as she entered the room, she saw Lan Ya standing by the bed, and asked anxiously.

"It should be considered good news." Lan Ya glanced at her, "Don't be so anxious, since I didn't let Luo Xing notify, it's not a serious matter."

"Good news?" She didn't understand.

"Keliya started to enter the metamorphosis period. During this period, she will adjust her body. When she wakes up, the metamorphosis period is over." Lan Ya spread her hands. It was the first time she met a mermaid who entered the metamorphosis period so quickly.

There was simply no warning at all.

"It scared me to death." She breathed a sigh of relief, and sat on the edge of the bed and looked at Ke Liya who seemed to be asleep. "How long will she sleep like this?"

"I'm not sure, the transformation period of each mermaid is different, but basically they all wake up in the first few days of adulthood, and then better adapt to the body after transformation."

"So during this time, Ke Liya can only fall asleep." Lu Qing looked at Ke Liya, could it be that during this time, she could only stay by herself.

At first, she thought that at least Ke Liya would be able to accompany her, but now it seems that there is no drama.

"Well, you don't know much about Ke Liya's situation. I'll help take care of it. It's because Sevis was thoughtful. She left me some things before she left, which can come in handy now." Lan Ya nodded .

"As for you, Ke Liya can't feel the outside world during this period. If you want to talk to her or anything else, you can only wait until she wakes up after the transformation period has passed."

"I see." Hearing what she said, Gu Qing felt a little disappointed. It seemed that she could only spend these boring two months by herself.

"I hope Ke Liya won't be too surprised after going through the transformation period." Lan Ya raised her hand and brushed the hair next to her cheek, with a playful smile in the corner of her eyes.

That's gotta be fun.

Of course, Gu Qing, who had already left the room, did not know what Lan Ya said.

"Luo Xing, you have heard those words just now, those in the central control room." She asked Luo Xing, with Luo Xing here, she didn't have to worry about anyone being able to watch her here.

[Yes, Your Highness. 】

【Why the sudden change of direction is not clear to Luo Xing. 】

【Just one thing, I think I should also tell you, it was explained by Miss Yunyan. 】

"Sister-in-law? What did she tell you?" Gu Qing was a little surprised what Mu Yunyan and Luo Xing said.

[Miss Yunyan said, you must be careful when you leave this time.In addition, according to the updated database before leaving the empire, the sixth star field is not very safe, and the star field executive officer of the ninth star field seems to have close contacts with the tenth star field. 】

Luo Xing said, she is just a brain, she can only sort out these materials, the key is to see if Lu Qing sees anything.

"I always feel that this trip will not be too easy." She sighed.

[Your Highness, do you remember when His Highness Gu Lan asked you to practice. 】Luo Xing really couldn't stand Gu Qing's forgetfulness, so he had to remind him.

"Cultivation or something, haha, I don't think I'm really that material." Lu Qing's whole body is not well, she really doesn't like to exercise mental power or physical exercise at all.

So her current mental strength is exactly the same as it was a few months ago, with little growth.As for her physical ability, she only has a natural foundation. As for her acquired hard work, she hasn't worked hard for a long time.

"Gu Qing, I knew you were like this. This sentence is not a reminder but a warning. The tenth star field is very chaotic, and the place in the Blue Sea galaxy is even more chaotic. If you continue to play me a fool, Gu Shuang can help you. You once, but I can’t help you forever. You’d better think clearly for yourself, you’re not here to play this time, and if something goes wrong, it’s not your own face that will be lost.” Gu Lan’s voice didn’t know where it came from Where did it come from, the tone was very serious, and there was no sign of joking.

"Luoxing, was it you just now?" Hearing Gu Lan's serious voice, Gu Qing, who was conditioned to stand up straight, waited until the voice disappeared, and asked with a frown.

[This is what His Highness Gu Lan said before, if you forget, Your Highness, let me play it for you. 】

"Turn your elbows out, you know, you know, I can't do it." Lu Qing muttered, a little bit aggrieved, but she also knew that Gu Lan was really doing it for her.

What kind of madness did mother go to throw her there? Is she just blocking her eyes like that?

------

empire

"Mother, I still can't understand why you let Gu Qing go to the tenth star field." Gu Lan still doesn't know what kind of virtue Gu Qing is.

Even if you really want Gu Qing to do something, you can put it under your nose and watch it, and put it in such a distant star field.

More importantly, the situation in that star field is still so difficult.

"You think that Gu Qing can't cope with such a situation, but I don't think so." Gu Jue drank black tea, the rich aroma was lingering, her eyebrows and eyes stretched, and she didn't worry about Gu Lan's question at all.

"I think she was too indulgent in the first 20 years, and she should have been given a high-pressure education earlier. Lu Qing is simply wasting her talent, eating, drinking, and having fun despite repeated admonitions." Gu Jue said with a smile.

Gu Lan coughed twice when she heard the words. What her mother said was completely correct, and she had no position to refute.

"Didn't she go out to exercise before, and after returning from her disappearance, her strength has increased by a little bit compared to before. I think it would be good to let her go out to exercise." Gu Jue pursed her lips and smiled.

"Gu Lan, don't always treat her like a child. She is your sister, but she is 21 years old this year, not one year old. Haven't you had enough of following her to deal with the mess?"

"Well, don't worry, she is also my daughter after all. I will never give her something that must die, so you don't have to worry about it. What you should focus on now is how to deal with the mermaid civilization. .”

"They are really difficult to deal with." Gu Jue said lightly.

Gu Lan wanted to say something, but gave up after thinking about it.After her mother said that, Gu Qing thought that there shouldn't be anything life-threatening.

"Yes, mother. Then I will go back immediately, and I will take care of this matter." She looked at Gu Jue, said and backed out.

Sitting alone, Gu Jue looked at the star map in front of him, which was the partial star map of the tenth star field.There was a meaningful smile on the corner of her mouth, the tenth star field, it's time to return to the empire's control.

Twelve star fields, even if Gu Jue spent nearly 30 years, he only dealt with the first few star fields.Those star fields after that are beyond reach, at least not so easy to reach.

Gu Jue was the youngest child of her father. During the last 30 years of her father's rule of the empire, the star fields behind were almost about to break away from the empire's control and become independent star fields.

If she hadn't tried her best to turn the tide, there would be no obvious twelve-star field in the empire, and it would have become a civilization with countless internal divisions.

Those secrets back then, Gu Jue didn't mention them to his children very much, it's not that he thought it was shameful to talk about them.But those things at the beginning were not so easy to explain clearly. It was not only her who was involved, but also many people and things that were not easy to talk about.

Gu Qing worked very hard.

She was exercising very hard, exercising her mental strength, exercising her body, and even entered the virtual mecha training center of the spaceship to learn how to control the mecha.

She has reached the standard in terms of physical and mental strength, and it would be a waste not to learn mechs.

At least that's what those teachers who knew her physical and mental potential had said. After all, if she doesn't want to exercise, who can force her.

Therefore, Lu Qing, who has been coming here all these years, has enjoyed a lot of pain.

When watching other people's mecha training and being beaten, she laughed so happily.When she was pressed and beaten, she couldn't cry anymore.

"Your Highness, it's wrong for you to do this. You should have raised your leg and dodged sideways." This mecha warrior named Ling Yin was specially assigned to her as the instructor of His Highness, who was said to want to learn how to drive a mecha.

The opponent's strength is said to be very powerful, and Gu Qing can't see it, but it doesn't prevent her from intuitively seeing how good she is when she is beaten by the opponent.

"Take a rest, take a rest." Gu Qing yelled, and retreated from the simulated training cabin. The whole person seemed to be picked up from the water, and the hair on his forehead was stuck to his forehead .

She never knew that manipulating a mecha would consume so much energy, she felt that she would collapse every time after training.

"Your Highness, your mental strength is still not enough to adapt." Ling Yin also retreated from the cockpit, and walked over to help her up.

"I haven't played this game for a long time, at least give me some time." She twitched the corners of her mouth and showed an ugly smile.

Her previous major wasn't that violent at all, okay? She's always been just a quiet spectator about mecha combat, okay?

Ling Yin brought water to her, and one of them was lying on the ground with no image, and the other was sitting on the side, showing the demeanor of a soldier.

Gu Qing turned his head and looked at Ling Yin who was sitting very upright, "Is there anyone else who needs to sit upright now?"

"I'm used to it." Ling Yin smiled. She didn't look very good-looking, but she was very attractive.

"How long have you been in the army?" Gu Qing sat up and unscrewed the bottle, taking two sips of water.

"It's been more than six years." Ling Yin replied, the order she received was to meet all of Gu Qing's requirements as much as possible within the allowed range.

Of course, it's not that Gu Qing, the formerly dandy Highness, can have such a big face, but that someone has greeted him before.

"Really, my second sister is about the same as you in the military department, maybe I have a chance to meet her this time." Lu Qing said casually, shaking the water in the water bottle.

"In that case, it's really great. I'm an admirer of Your Excellency Gu Shuang." Ling Yin smiled.

"I can't see it." Gu Qing chatted, "However, her admirers probably spread all over the army. Before, I was threatened that if I was disobedient and joined the army in minutes, someone would come out and teach me how to behave."

"Your Highness, you are so humorous."

"What's humorous? Gu Shuang said it himself. But I didn't join the army, so I don't like so much restraint. I don't like training or anything like that." Gu Qing laughed at himself.

"I admire people like you, but I can't become a soldier." She glanced at Ling Yin, "You don't want to know why I am suddenly interested in training."

"What Your Highness wants to say, Ling Yin will listen to it. If His Highness doesn't want to say it, Ling Yin won't ask." Ling Yin when she wasn't fighting with Gu Qing was gentle enough to make Lu Qing feel that during the duel practice, she would beat her hard. The Ling Yin she picked wrong was not the one in front of her at all.

"The tenth star field, the sea blue galaxy, isn't it clear enough? I don't want to go at all, but I have to go." She thought about it, and it was not easy to find someone to complain about.

Lan Ya didn't know what she was doing every day, but she was also practicing.But mermaids are different from humans, and it's not easy for her to peek.

Ke Liya sleeps every day, and there is no response to talking to her, but she is singing a one-man show alone.

Not to mention Luo Xing, chatting with her is very tiring.Anything can be related to data and other things.

She never felt that one day she would feel too lonely to be alone.It may be because no matter what happened before, there was always Ke Liya by my side, or else there was at least Lan Ya to talk to.

Simply, she also started training.No matter what kind of situation you will face after arriving in the blue ocean galaxy, or to pass the boring time.

On the spacecraft, there is only a local area network, and even the interstellar network cannot be accessed.Because they are still traveling in space and are on their way to the ninth star field.

"I once served in the tenth star field." Ling Yin said suddenly.

"Hey, tell me what it looks like there. I have never been there, and the information I found is very ambiguous." Gu Qing became interested and wanted to know the situation of the tenth star field, so he asked Ling Yin about it. The ones that have been there are not more detailed and clear.

"The tenth star field is a very prosperous star field."

"Fan Hua, I heard that I am not this." Gu Qing muttered for a while before asking back.

"It's actually no different from other star fields, but I served in the central star field of the tenth star field, and I have never been to the Blue Sea galaxy. In fact, if it is the situation of the Blue Sea galaxy, I think, It can't answer His Highness's doubts." Ling Yin said apologetically.

"It's okay, I'll know sooner or later anyway." She smiled and said nonchalantly.

After more than a month, Gu Qing arrived in the ninth star field.

The footprints of human beings have gone far enough to the star field, but compared to the entire universe, it is still as small as a drop in the ocean.

They received a very warm reception, at least in Gu Qing's view.

"What the hell are you humans doing?" Lan Ya stood beside her. Ke Liya hadn't woken up yet, so besides Lan Ya, there was also Ling Yin standing beside her.

"Don't pay attention to her words." Lu Qing looked at Ling Yin and said.

"I haven't received any notification from An Ran about this matter." An Ran is the commander this time, with the rank of major general.That is, the person who told her that he would stay in the ninth star field more than a month ago.

"This is His Highness the Third Highness." The consul of the star field who was talking to An Ran stepped forward, saw her showing a warm smile, and reached out to shake hands with her.

"Hello, hello." Lu Qing stretched out her hand and shook hands with the other party. Now she represents herself, but represents the empire.

In such a formal occasion, if something goes wrong, she can't afford it.

An Ran walked over with a distant yet polite smile on his face, "Your Excellency Kars Consul, I think we can leave here first."

Surrounded by the media, and some people, all onlookers.

An Ran's words touched Lu Qing's heart, she was not interested in being treated like a monkey watching.

"Sorry, let's go now." The middle-aged man called Kars smiled and greeted them into a car.

The consul who can work a star field came out to greet him, what did An Ran and the others bring.Lu Qing was puzzled in his heart, but he didn't show it.

She is actually not very familiar with the situation of the ninth star field. The previous plan to visit all the star fields of the empire had problems in the fourth star field.

The consul's mansion is gorgeous, at least her house is not so beautiful, it is simply a complex of buildings.Tsk tsk, it looks like being the consul of the star field is not bad.

Gu Qing looked at the building in front of him. As for Kars, he was talking to An Ran all the way.Except for saying hello to her at the beginning, I didn't pay much attention to her after that.

That's right, she is just an imperial daughter, and she has always been famous for being inconspicuous before.No matter how you look at it, he doesn't look like a serious person.

What's more, this time I came here mainly because of the order An Ran received.

Kars arranged a room for them to live in. After all, Ke Liya couldn't move, so she didn't take her down.Because according to what An Ran said, they will stay here for a week or so at most before leaving.

For her safety, Ling Yin directly assigned her as a bodyguard, no, it was a bodyguard.

Lan Ya also followed her. Her current identity on the surface is the subordinate assigned to Ke Liya by the mermaid civilization, and it is no problem to listen to her.

"The Ninth Starfield looks good." Thinking of the scenes I saw along the way today, the people are living well and peacefully.

"Surface skills." Lan Ya said sarcastically, "You humans seem to like doing this kind of thing very much."

"It's not necessarily superficial, maybe it's true." Regarding Lan Ya's sarcasm, Gu Qing laughed dryly, "At least the Gulin galaxy in the center of the ninth star field is still very good."

In front of outsiders, no matter what, you have to protect your own face.

"Your Highness, if you have nothing else to do, I want to leave first." Ling Yin looked at her and said.

"If you have something to do, go ahead. I don't have anything else to do here. I really do. Isn't there still Lan Ya here?" Lu Qing waved his hand, and let her go without asking her what the matter was.

"You are so forthright, what do you want to do." Lan Ya looked her up and down with suspicion.

"What can I do? After staying on the spaceship for more than a month, my bones are almost rusted. Of course I went out for a walk." Gu Qing was very innocent.

"It's rusty, maybe Ling Yin didn't strike hard enough, we can try it next time to help you enrich your life." Lan Ya smiled, "If you want to go out to play, just say so."

"Well, let's see if there is anything interesting, and I can help Kolia pick out a gift by the way." She stroked her chin and smiled.

"I thought you forgot about Ke Liya." Lan Ya's tone changed a little, "I'm with Ling Yin every day, maybe I'm making an old mistake again."

Gu Qing, who was about to speak, almost bit his own tongue when he heard her words, "What are you talking about, do I look like that kind of person!"

You must explain this matter clearly, otherwise Lan Ya will definitely make a small report when Ke Liya wakes up.Lan Ya had hoped that Ke Liya would leave her voluntarily for a long time.
