Quick Wear Dream Qiqi

Meng Qiqi stood in the center of the cabin, and the ring light above her head cast the shadows of the three people on the metal wall.

Lu Jiuyuan's leather jacket smelled of gunpowder and rust, Xiao Yu's black and gold armor shone with a cold light, and the faintly visible mechanical patterns under Su Yan's silver-gray uniform flashed with data streams. The three of them were like three beasts ready to attack, trapping her firmly in the middle.

"Enough!" Meng Qiqi suddenly clapped her hands, the crisp sound breaking the stagnant air. "Instead of being on the verge of a fight here, why not discuss how to deal with the Shadow Alliance?"

She shook the star core in her hand, and the dark blue light reflected different expressions in the eyes of the three people - Lu Jiuyuan was determined to obtain the possession, Xiao Yu was an emperor's desire for control, and deep in Su Yan's eyes behind the lenses, there was a concern that only she could understand.

"The star core stolen by the Shadow Alliance can awaken the ancient star beast." Su Yan pushed his gold-rimmed glasses. His mechanical prosthetic limbs swept across the surface of the star core, and a complex genetic map suddenly emerged on the holographic projection. "According to my calculations, they need at least two more star cores of the same type to complete the ritual."

He suddenly turned to look at Meng Qiqi, his silver-grey eyes narrowing slightly. "You said before that you found similar energy fluctuations in the Zerg King?"

Lu Jiuyuan suddenly pulled her behind him, the chain blade under his leather jacket humming: "Su Yan, just talk, don't stare at her like that!"

His amber pupils swept over Xiao Yu's hand on the lightsaber, and he sneered, "And you, the Royal Guards, why don't you stay in the palace and come to my territory to show off?"

Xiao Yu's deep purple eyes flashed with coldness, and the two-headed dragon emblem on his waist flickered under the light: "Lu Jiuyuan, the interstellar pirates detained the citizens of the Empire without permission. I will settle this account with you."

His gaze passed over Lu Jiuyuan's shoulder and fixed on Meng Qiqi's blood-stained bandage. His voice softened unconsciously, "Major Meng, come back to the Imperial Military Headquarters with me. The medical conditions there are..."

"No need." Meng Qiqi dodged Lu Jiuyuan's arm sideways, but bumped into the energy capsule handed to her by Su Yan.

The scientist's fingers were slender and cold, and the blue light reflected from his mechanical eye swept across the red tip of her ear. "Taking it sublingually can relieve mental exhaustion."

He suddenly leaned closer and lowered his voice so only the two of them could hear, "Next time you take risks, remember to notify me in advance."

系统提示音在脑海疯狂炸响：苏砚好感度+5，当前98/100；萧御好感度+3，当前93/100；陆九渊好感度+2，当前97/100。

Meng Qiqi resisted the urge to hold her forehead, and complained furiously in her heart: These are not targets for capture, they are clearly three powder kegs!

If they continue like this, they will be able to blow the star field to pieces without the Shadow Alliance having to do anything!

"Stop!" She raised her hands in surrender. "We're all on the same page now."

His eyes swept over the three people's tense jawlines, and suddenly an idea came to him, "How about a competition? Whoever finds the whereabouts of the Shadow Alliance first, I will..."

Before he could finish his words, three completely different pairs of eyes lit up at the same time.

Lu Jiuyuan pulled off his broken goggles, revealing the scar at the end of his eye: "My little beauty, you must keep your word."

He turned his wrist and nailed the chain blade into the bulkhead with precision. "My intelligence network is all over the black market. By tomorrow at the latest..."

"The Interstellar Research Institute's quantum radar can scan energy fluctuations within a hundred kilometers." Su Yan interrupted him and synchronized the star core data to the holographic screen. "As long as the Shadow Alliance dares to initiate the ceremony, I can..."

"The Empire's star-track satellite system has already locked onto the suspicious star region." Xiao Yu raised his hand and summoned a virtual map. Dozens of red dots flashed at the edge of the Milky Way. "My Royal Guards are ready at any time..."

The voices of the three people intertwined into a vortex of quarrel, and Meng Qiqi took the opportunity to retreat to the corner.

Looking at them at this moment, they are like children fighting over toys, which makes me feel helpless and funny.

She called up the system panel and stared at the three people's favorability levels, which were about to reach the maximum, and fell into deep thought.

According to the rules, completing all the strategies will unlock the permission to return to the system space, but when this moment really approached, she felt an inexplicable sourness in her chest.

"So, you guys are planning to make so much noise here that the star core becomes ineffective?" She suddenly spoke, successfully quieting the three of them.

He walked to the holographic projection and ran his fingertips across the dark purple area representing the Shadow Alliance. "This is the meteorite belt in the Beta Sagittarius region. That's where Gu Xingyao escaped last time."

His eyes swept over the three of them one by one, "Why don't we split up? I'll go with..."

"No!" Three voices sounded at the same time.

Lu Jiuyuan directly lifted her onto his shoulders, his mechanical prosthetic limbs firmly grasping her waist: "Little fox, you can only be with me!"

Xiao Yu's lightsaber was unsheathed half an inch, and a dangerous aura emanated from his body: "Major Meng is the imperial military advisor and should obey my command."

Su Yan stood silently in front of her, his mechanical prosthetic eye emitting a stream of data: "She needs professional medical protection."

Meng Qiqi was left in a state of confusion by the sudden scramble. She struggled to pat Lu Jiuyuan on the back and said, "Put me down! If you keep making such a fuss, the Shadow Alliance will have finished the Star Core Ceremony!"

Her words calmed the three of them down a little, but the tension in their eyes was still strong when they looked at each other.

In the end, with Meng Qiqi's insistence, the three of them reached a temporary compromise.

Xiao Yu was responsible for mobilizing the imperial fleet to blockade the star field, Su Yan led the research team of the Academy of Sciences to analyze the star core data, and Lu Jiuyuan led the pirate group to search for intelligence in the black market.

Before leaving, the three men surrounded her without any prior arrangement.

"You must send me your location every day." Lu Jiuyuan pinched her chin domineeringly and kissed her forehead.

Xiao Yu placed a communicator with a two-headed dragon engraved on it into her palm. "Activate it immediately if you encounter any danger. My fleet will arrive within ten minutes."

Su Yan handed her an exquisite metal box containing a customized mental stabilizer. "Take one pill every four hours. Remember to eat on time."

Watching three spaceships of different styles disappear into the starry sky, Meng Qiqi slid down to the ground against the hatch.

The system panel popped up again: "Are you sure you've completed the strategy?" She watched the three dots of light gradually recede, her fingertips hovering over the "Confirm" button, hesitant to press it.

----

In a dark matter rift at the edge of the Milky Way, a rusted and abandoned colony ship is violently trembling with gravitational waves.

Gu Xingyao curled up in the incubator covered in mucus. Her originally fair skin was covered with purple veins, and dark matter formed a strange vortex around her.

Ever since she was defeated by Lu Jiuyuan last time, she has been like a trapped beast in the abyss, planning the most crazy revenge in the secret base of the Shadow Alliance.

"Miss Gu, this is the genetic modification fluid brought by the Zerg envoy." The snake-masked Shadow Alliance member pushed a test tube emitting a faint green light into the cabin. "Once injected into your body, you will gain the power to control the Zerg swarm."

Gu Xingyao held the test tube tremblingly, her nails had transformed into sharp claws.

She remembered how Meng Qiqi was surrounded by everyone - Lu Jiuyuan was furious for her, Xiao Yu pinned the medal of honor on her chest, and even the usually indifferent Su Yan looked at Meng Qiqi with a special tenderness.

Jealousy was like a termite, gnawing at her last vestiges of sanity.

"I'm going to make her lose everything!" She screamed and stabbed the test tube into her neck, and green liquid spread along her blood vessels.

Severe pain instantly swept through her body. She felt her bones twisting and reorganizing, and countless tiny creatures surging under her skin.

Outside the incubator, Shadow Alliance members excitedly recorded data: "Gene fusion rate 30%... 50%... Zerg Queen characteristics appear!"

During the three days and three nights of transformation, Gu Xingyao experienced inhuman torture.

Her spine split into bony wings, her eyeballs turned into multi-faceted compound eyes, and even her vocal cords were modified to emit high-frequency sound waves.

When the liquid in the incubator was drained, the once innocent girl disappeared, replaced by a monster emitting a foul odor—a huge cocoon grew from her back, and ten arthropod-like tentacles waved in the air.

"A surge in mental power has been detected!" The Shadow Alliance members retreated in horror. "She...she is devouring the energy of the entire base!"

Gu Xingyao let out a shrill scream, and the sound waves shattered all the instruments.

Her consciousness vacillated between madness and clarity, but was always occupied by one obsession: to destroy Meng Qiqi.

The moment the Zerg genes were fully awakened, she established a spiritual link with the Zerg nest deep in the Milky Way. Countless star beasts surged in like a black tide at her summons.

"Long live the Queen Mother!" The remaining members of the Shadow Alliance knelt on the ground. Their bodies began to be parasitized by the Zerg, and lumps of flesh bulged and squirmed under their skin.

A dark red light flashed in Gu Xingyao's compound eyes. She raised her hand and summoned a hundred-meter-long mantis insect, its sharp claws tearing through the void. "Target, Meng Qiqi's location."

At the same time, Meng Qiqi's Star Blade fighter was flying through the asteroid belt.

The system suddenly issued a shrill alarm: "A large-scale Zerg jump has been detected! The energy reaction exceeds historical records!"

Her pupils suddenly shrank, and on the holographic map, tens of thousands of red dots were converging at an astonishing speed.

"It's Gu Xingyao!" Su Yan's voice came from the communicator, with unprecedented shock, "Her brain wave frequency... is exactly the same as that of the Zerg Queen!"

Lu Jiuyuan's pirate ship was the first to face the insect swarm, and the chain blade split a flying mantis insect in half: "Little beauty, this time I will see who dares to touch you!"

Xiao Yu's royal fleet followed closely behind, and the energy net formed by the lightsabers temporarily blocked the insect tide.

But everyone discovered to their horror that the regeneration speed of these Zerg was far beyond their imagination, and their destroyed bodies were quickly reassembled.

Gu Xingyao hovered in the center of the insect swarm. The cocoon behind her split open, and six wings covered with spikes grew out.

She looked at Meng Qiqi fighting below and laughed twistedly: "You took everything from me. Now, I want you to watch the entire galaxy buried with me!"

She raised her hand and summoned a giant king insect, the eggs in its abdomen were enough to hatch millions of fighting insects.

Meng Qiqi gripped the laser dagger tightly, and the infrasonic transmitter was overloaded: "Su Yan, do you remember our plan in the laboratory?"

She pulled up the energy map of the star core. "Using antimatter and Zerg bioenergy to create resonance might destroy the Queen Mother's spiritual connection!"

Su Yan's mechanical eye flashed wildly: "But this requires precise calculations. If there is even a slight deviation, the entire star field will be annihilated!"

"It's worth a try." Meng Qiqi looked at Lu Jiuyuan and Xiao Yu who were fighting in the insect swarm. "For them, and for all the innocent lives."

When the star core and antimatter device exploded in front of Gu Xingyao, the entire universe seemed to stand still.

The Zerg Queen's screams tore through space, and her body began to disintegrate, turning into countless glowing particles.

Before Meng Qiqi lost consciousness in the blast, the last thing she saw was three figures breaking through the insect swarm and desperately flying towards her...
