The Males Were Reborn After The Female Ruler Was Scumbed [Quick Transmigration] - Chapter 7

Manager Geli said that Area D was a very dangerous place, with countless factions, extremely complex, and chaotic.

It was home to strange alien races, bug races forced to relocate due to the late stages of mental power riot/instability, and noble descendants sent here by their families after causing trouble…

When moving around in Area D, no bug knew what they might encounter.

Fortunately, most of these bugs lived in clusters with fixed residential areas, and the boss’s friends were not dangerous individuals and didn’t live within those areas. Therefore, as long as Lu Qing avoided these places on the road, the possibility of encountering danger would be significantly reduced.

Before he left, Manager Geli even gave him a “D-Area Survival Guide”, as if he weren’t going to deliver takeout, but to survive in a war zone.

Lu Qing was very scared, and the System was even more terrified. If the host died just like that, it would have to rewind and start over.

Fortunately, the journey was largely without mishap. In the one hour and twenty minutes of riding after Lu Qing got off the flyer, nothing major happened, apart from accidentally stumbling into an alien shootout, encountering two berserk high-ranking female soldiers causing chaos due to mental power instability, and almost being scraped off his feet by a male bug speeding on a motorcycle flyer in the city.

However, Lu Qing’s courier career was somewhat affected.

For example, right now, Lu Qing silently stared at the stone wall in front of him.

His terminal glowed faintly blue, and the cold, mechanical voice reported coolly: “Please continue straight—”

Lu Qing: “…………”

Are you okay??

Open your dog eyes and see clearly, this is a dead end.

To avoid the two berserk female soldiers, Lu Qing had to deviate from the main road and turn into a narrow, deep alley.

Now, he couldn’t tell whether the female soldiers had gone berserk, or the navigation had gone berserk.

Once or twice was fine, but this was the third time tonight. Don’t you understand the saying ‘bad things don’t happen in threes’, dammit!!

“Continue forward—Please continue forward—”

Lu Qing: “…Shut up.”

They were in the interstellar era, but the navigation was still so useless and unreliable.

Lu Qing decisively extinguished the screen and calmly said, “System, give me directions.”

This kind of dead-end alley surrounded by three walls was a high-risk accident zone in novels. Lu Qing had a vague, ominous feeling and needed to leave immediately.

The System appeared with a swoosh. Its multicolored light dispelled the darkness, but what it said was ruthless:

“Host, I already told you when I first misdirected you for the second time, didn’t I? The System’s role is only to regulate the host’s behavior. I can’t provide help to the host with other matters.”

Lu Qing was unconvinced. “But you found me a vehicle before.”

The System: “That was to ensure you work properly! I spent my precious 1 point out of my own pocket.”

The System was still heartbroken about it, sucking air through its teeth. Those points were saved from previous missions and were extremely valuable.

Lu Qing glanced at it. “Fine. But if I can’t deliver the meal because of this crappy navigation today, I’ll definitely lose my job. A person with no job has no income, and no income leads to bad intentions… don’t blame me for being a scumbag then.”

The System: “…………”

Bastard, he’s threatening me.

The System turned into a colorful prickly ball, looking as if it wished it could stab Lu Qing to death. “Turn around ahead!! Turn right!!”

Lu Qing rubbed his ears. “Thanks, my dear little System—”

Lu Qing turned the vehicle around, just about to ride, when he suddenly heard the sound of chaotic footsteps.

Roughly estimated, there were at least four or five people.

The footsteps were clearly divided into two groups. One seemed a bit thin, clearly at a disadvantage, while the other group’s steps were steady and powerful, well-trained.

Lu Qing twitched his lips. He knew he shouldn’t linger in this place; the high-risk accident zone was not lying.

A rough voice laughed, “Bug God bless, no way out, haha—”

Another voice was noticeably calmer. “Be careful, he’s carrying a gun…”

The rough-mannered bug was unconcerned. “What’s there to be afraid of? We have K2 energy guns…”

Lu Qing paused imperceptibly, pretending not to hear, and nimbly swung onto the vehicle, pedaling hard.

He hadn’t pedaled two steps when the System stopped him. “Are you just leaving?”

Lu Qing had been in the underworld for so many years and knew that he shouldn’t meddle in unnecessary business; it only brought trouble. “What else?”

Moreover… Lu Qing narrowed his eyes. K2 energy gun… ordinary bugs wouldn’t have this thing.

If Lu Qing remembered correctly, this was a new weapon developed by the Military Department, which would be cataloged into the military’s data arsenal and equipped to all female and male soldiers in one year.

Before that, this item was only equipped to some high-ranking generals or military-political families.

Even if this group of bugs wasn’t from the Military Department, they were definitely intricately related to it. Wouldn’t he, an E-rank male bug, be seeking death by going up against them?

The System was incredulous. “Those bugs clearly intend to kill someone. Are you just going to stand by and watch, doing nothing?”

“Who said that?” Lu Qing felt insulted and lit up his terminal to show it. “I’ve already reported them to the police. Officer Uncle will be here soon.”

The System: “…” W-well played.

Lu Qing spoke earnestly and long-windedly: “A gentleman doesn’t engage in the courage of a mere man. Rushing in when you can’t win is recklessness, understand…”

His self-righteous and matter-of-fact demeanor was so convincing that if the System didn’t know him, it would have been fooled. “Say that again. Who can’t you beat?”

“Don’t think I don’t know, you were evenly matched with a male soldier from the Special Forces in your previous life!!”

Lu Qing was furious when he heard this. “Did you snoop on my memories again?!”

The System: “I didn’t snoop. I watched openly!!”

“Hurry back—” The System quickly pushed him back. “Host, this is a matter of life and death. Stop pretending. It’s time for you to act heroically!!”

“If nothing else, have you forgotten our original intention? The Good Citizen Award bonus!!”

Lu Qing blinked, stopping his steps, only belatedly realizing this angle. Yes, he desperately needed the Good Citizen Award bonus.

However, he had been good for many years and no longer fought. Even if he won now, it would be a pyrrhic victory.

Lu Qing pondered for a moment. “Alright… but military bugs are really terrifying. How about you give me a golden body that grants immunity to damage?”

The System burst into crackling sparks, its spikes gleaming with cold light. “I can coat you with electricity. Do you want that?”

For a host who was such a filial son under the stick, reasoning was useless; force must be applied.

Hearing this, Lu Qing spoke with righteous indignation: “…I appreciate your kindness. I’ll go right now. Don’t get agitated, please don’t get agitated.”

Lu Qing reluctantly shuffled into the alley. The closer he got, the clearer the voices became.

The rough voice was very excited. “His energy shield is about to fail—!!”

The calmer one was clearly more cautious, not letting the imminent victory cloud his judgment. “Once the energy shield fails, execute him immediately. Be careful not to cause further trouble.”

With everything still unknown, Lu Qing didn’t want to needlessly sacrifice himself.

“System, what’s the situation inside the scene now?”

He was on this side of the alley. If he suddenly popped his head out, he would definitely be discovered by the enemy. The task of reconnaissance fell to the System.

Looking twice is at most observing the environment and doesn’t count as helping Lu Qing. Mainly, if it didn’t help, it was afraid he would act up again, so it had to reluctantly comply.

“Host, four A-rank male bugs, one S-rank male bug.”

Lu Qing nodded. “This lineup… is quite tricky.”

“How about the hostage?”

The System turned its gaze to the bug tightly protected by an energy shield in the corner of the alley. “…”

Lu Qing: “System?”

The System blinked. “Host, he’s fine, it’s just… this bug seems to be your ex-husband.”

Lu Qing: “…………”

“Say that again?!”

The sub-male was completely wrapped in a soft white energy, clutching his right arm, the white sleeve stained red with bl00d.

He was dressed almost raggedly, but his expression was surprisingly calm, seemingly not taking these bugs seriously.

“You can still smile at a time like this? Are you an idiot?” The rough-mannered bug looked as rough as his voice sounded. You look so good, why does your brain seem a bit slow?

“I don’t understand why Young Master is so keen on eliminating him…”

The S-rank male bug frowned, scolding, “How many times have I told you, don’t mention anything related to ‘him’ outside. Do you want to die?”

The rough bug sheepishly said, “He can’t escape anyway…”

The sub-male, who had been silent, finally spoke. “Young Master… refers to Ceth · Eidri, right?”

It was clear why that S-rank male bug was the leader. Despite the target having nowhere to retreat and the mission being accomplishable as soon as the shield dissipated, he remained cautious and did not answer.

But he had a pig teammate. The robust male bug seemed very surprised. “How did you kno…”

“Hankin!! Shut up!!” The S-rank male bug was both anxious and angry. “Are you crazy?!”

Lan Xi seemed amused, his eyes curving. “Then, honestly, I’m very pleased to hear that answer.”

The S-rank male bug warily watched his every move. “If you die, what does it matter if he’s suspicious?”

“…At this time, no bug can save you.”

Lan Xi smiled good-naturedly. “You are right.”

The S-rank male bug looked at the sub-male’s appearance, but an indescribable oddity persisted.

Since receiving the news, everything tonight seemed too smooth.

Smoothly receiving news of him coming to Area D, smoothly ambushing him at his residence, smoothly separating him from his escort, smoothly delaying General Crete, and forcing the sub-male to this location…

The male bug looked at the frail sub-male in front of him, frowning. It’s come to this; I can’t worry about it anymore.

Seeing the white energy surrounding the sub-male gradually dissipating, Lan Xi checked his terminal. The time was just about right.

Lan Xi subtly rubbed the silver signet ring on his index finger. This was a small gadget he had tinkered with a few days ago, a quite useful killing weapon.

It could lock onto a target and perform a precise kill over a wide range. As soon as these bugs appeared at the hotel, they were locked onto. Within range, one hit, one kill.

Delaying until now was merely to make the show more realistic.

His purpose had been achieved, so these bugs could now go meet the Bug God.

They were right. If he died, what did it matter if his “good brother” didn’t admit it?

As the energy shield protecting the sub-male completely dissipated, the five male bugs simultaneously raised their guns, the dark muzzles aimed at the sub-male’s head.

And in a place no one could see, five hard-to-detect white light dots were also aimed at the male bugs’ hearts.

“Then, goodbye, Excellency Lan Xi—”

“Bang—”

However, in the next second, several male bugs consecutively let out angry curses.

It turned out that the male bugs’ guns had somehow slipped from their hands and fell all over the ground.

“Sh1t, what’s going on?!”

“Damn it, who, who hit me?!”

A very annoyed voice sounded, mixed with intense displeasure. “Of course, it’s your dad—”

Lan Xi raised an eyebrow, stopping the hand rubbing the ring.

—Is that him?

The male bugs looked with surprise and anger towards the source of the sound. They saw a tall bug standing at the alley entrance, dressed in black clothes and black pants, his face obscured.

As everyone’s gaze focused, a colorful light suddenly lit up behind him, then illuminated the little black figure’s face—

A paper bag with two holes poked in it, printed with four large characters: 【Ugly Group Takeout】.

The five male bugs: “…………”

What kind of idiot is this???

Lan Xi: “…………”

For some unknown reason, amidst the absurdity, he found it somewhat reasonable.
