Chapter 15 – The Admiral Activates the Mecha

　　One minute left.

　　Glenn closed his eyes and forced himself to think calmly.

　　It is impossible to start the mecha. One minute… no, after forty seconds, the constant temperature system and security system of the entire mecha hangar would restart.

　　He had to escape, but how?

　　The mecha slots on both sides of the East 3-E warehouse were full, and the mecha level was advanced B-level. It would take no more than fifteen minutes from the detector alarm to the guards’ arrival. He had to destroy a corner of the mecha hangar within fifteen minutes, and set up a high-level B-level mecha to fight against more than three-digit interstellar pirates, and escape alive.

　　‘God of the Universe, this is a fucking joke.’ Glenn pulled the corner of his mouth and breathed a sigh of relief.

　　Since there is no way out, there is nothing to be afraid of.

　　Glenn stared at the communicator screen calmly, and one second before the alarm time he had calculated in advance, he manually opened the cockpit door of the mecha again.

　　The Imperial Admiral leapt steadily to the ground.

　　•=|=•

　　Nothing happened.

　　There was no shrill alarm, no familiar low temperature and infrared rays, and no imagined commotion among the guards— the mecha hangar was reopened within just one minute after he entered the S-class mecha cabin?

　　Glenn looked up and confirmed that the mecha hangar door was still tightly closed, like the tightly closed mouth of an octopus.

　　The black-haired admiral stood straight, enjoying the familiar metallic smell in the mecha hangar for a while. He did not turn around, his ears trembling slightly, and he said in a calm and deep voice: “Come out.”

　　”Heh…” A chuckle came from the corner.

　　Glenn wasn’t surprised at all.

　　Joshua used to joke that Glenn’s animal-like instinct for danger might be due to his keen sense of smell, and Glenn never denied it.

　　He was very sensitive to other people’s pheromones, even the faint pheromones of Beta could be amplified geometrically in his nasal cavity. It was also because of this that whenever the admiral faced Miranda’s erotic smell or Victoria’s ink smell, he always had a headache and wanted to find a mask to wear, but unfortunately he couldn’t.

　　For example, right now, he felt like he was in a coffee shop with a poor air circulation system. Fortunately, apart from this large coffee bean, other odor sources were more than ten meters away.

　　——As a member of the Immortal Clan favored by the Creator, he was really confident.

　　”Long time no see, Admiral. How did you get yourself into such an embarrassing state?” The young man’s voice was clear and bright, with a subtle tone between androgynous, but the sentences he uttered were not very appealing and there was not a trace of sincerity in it.

　　”I accidentally fell.” Glenn nodded calmly.

　　As long as the highest authority holder of the mecha hangar inputs manual commands, the opening and closing of the mecha hangar and the activation of the security system are all simple matters that can be handled with just a few clicks.

　　This was probably a trap.

　　White’s face hidden in the darkness flashed before Glenn’s eyes.

　　Hawthorne was wearing normal boy clothes today, and the brimmed hat with long bird feathers on his head announced his identity as the leader of the interstellar pirates. He was slender and walked slowly out of the shadows, and the shadow he cast behind him was not even half as wide as Glenn’s.

　　”Are you trying to do something to my beauty?” Hawthorne’s leather boots scraped against the metal floor. “It doesn’t look like it’s going to be very successful.”

　　Glenn put his right hand behind his back and said calmly, “I have always wondered why the House Empire, which is closest to Jinlu Star, tolerated the existence of the Gray Pigeons. Now I seem to understand.”

　　Hawthorne raised his hand and touched his nose.

　　Although Glenn’s deduction process may be incorrect in half the steps, the conclusion he finally reached is really irrefutable.

　　How to explain it tactfully: Yes, we have been colluding with the House Empire for many years and have also snatched an S-class mecha, but the S-class mecha was snatched! We almost had a falling out after snatching it! And it’s not the one in front of you!

　　However, Hawthorne really didn’t intend to explain. He just said “huh” in an ambiguous voice: “I told Victoria, that stupid woman, not to trust you easily. I told her not to be bitten back. It turned out to be true.”

　　Glenn didn’t like the metaphor very much: “I’m just a soldier.”

　　”Yeah,” Hawthorne licked his lips, “It’s probably the nature of soldiers to be obsessed with weapons… You might consider throwing that laser gun aside, and then we can sit down and talk. Okay, Admiral?”

　　Glenn looked deep in thought for a while, then frankly threw the weapon in his right hand to the ground.

　　The crisp sound of a heavy object falling to the ground echoed softly in the quiet mecha hangar for a while. Hawthorne half raised his eyelids to take a look, and his beautiful phoenix eyes immediately widened, and Glenn’s arms had already wrapped around him.

　　The upright imperial admiral adapted well. Being a hostage was something he wanted to experience just once. Another time was not necessary.

　　Just as Hawthorne’s eyes moved away from Glenn, Glenn quickly flashed in front of the pirate leader, and the muzzle of the laser gun was aimed steadily at the back of the Immortal’s head.

　　The communicator on the ground vibrated, and a screen of light popped up automatically:

　　“Bon voyage. By: Mr. Black”

　　”That son of a bitch White.” Hawthorne grinned, his expression extremely excited.

　　Glenn ignored him— this Mr. Hawthorne was not an honest hostage. He suppressed Hawthorne’s small movements with one hand and slowly approached the mecha behind him step by step.

　　”You don’t dare to kill me, Admiral.” Hawthorne said cheerfully, “A prisoner who can be killed has no value. You should know that.”

　　”No, I dare.”

　　Glenn was succinct.

　　The interstellar pirates who were lying in ambush not far away rushed out instantly, forming a concentric circle of moderate size with Hawthorne and Glenn as the center. Well, there was a gap, and the gap was the useless, unusable silver-white mecha.

　　Hawthorne’s young body provided Glenn with some convenience. Even though the Immortals were stronger than ordinary people, the one he was restraining was still underage after all, and his weight would not change due to the amount of muscle strength. So after the first moment, Glenn’s movements were getting closer and closer to the direction of pulling the naughty child. Note that he was pulling the back of his clothes and gesturing with a gun next to his head.

　　The interstellar pirates who passively watched the entire process were in great pain, and their expressions were indescribable.

　　They always felt that their second leader would kill them when they went back. What should they do?

　　Glenn held Hawthorne hostage and leaned against the right leg of the mecha. He waited silently for a while and said in surprise, “It seems that this beauty’s husband is not you either.”

　　Hawthorne was hit in the sore spot and replied unhappily: “You are not the Alpha of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince either.”

　　Glenn: “…” Don’t talk about emotional topics during a battle.

　　Hawthorne couldn’t use his voice to activate the S-class mecha, that meant that the mecha did not belong to anyone present.

　　Glenn’s mind moved and he reacted quickly according to his judgment.

　　He pulled the trigger and fired four shots at the boy in front of him without hesitation. Hawthorne cried out in pain, and his white cuffs and trouser legs were instantly soaked with blood.　

　　”You fucking bastard!”

　　”Let go of the second leader!”

　　”Fuck, you hypocrites of the Empire!”

　　This sudden change came suddenly, and the interstellar pirates were caught off guard. They could only jump to their feet and shout and curse loudly.

　　Glenn had no intention of getting entangled any further. He used Hawthorne as cover to move to the side of the mecha’s cabin, threw the severely injured captive into the crowd that was getting closer, and quickly entered the mecha’s cockpit again.

　　The pirates had no scruples this time. The light sounds of the laser gun’s condensed energy came one after another. Glenn staggered, closed the well-reinforced door of the cockpit with a cold sweat on his head, and locked it manually from the inside.

　　His upper arm, left shoulder and thigh all had abrasions of varying degrees. The most serious injury was on his left calf, which was a penetrating wound from the laser gun, and it was not certain whether the bones were injured.

　　Glenn moved his left leg, and the tearing pain forced him to let out a low roar, then he sat in the driver’s seat with a stern face.

　　”It’s really unlucky.”

　　The self-healing ability of the Immortals is four times that of the Planet People. Those four shots couldn’t delay him for long. Perhaps he should have killed him.

　　After all, the situation can’t be any worse than it is now.

　　Plan B left for him did not include the current situation. According to the plan, Joshua would approach Jinlu Star after dawn.

　　——At this time, there were still four hours until dawn.

　　Glenn smiled bitterly and reluctantly touched the driving equipment of this S-class mecha.

　　This was the first time he had seen an S-class mecha in his life.

　　What a pity.

　　•=|=•

　　Glenn was concentrating on imagining what it would be like to own an S-class mecha and wreak havoc on everyone. His thoughts were so far away that he couldn’t be pulled back.

　　At this moment, a drop of blood flowed down his rough fingertips, across the joystick, and slowly flowed into the circular groove below.

　　The mecha cabin suddenly lit up, with lights of various colors projected from the operating keyboard. The automatic safety device secured Glenn’s waist, shoulders and neck, turning into two holographic safety belts that looked like two beams of light.

　　At the same time, a mechanical female voice sounded without any emotion.

　　”Good evening, sir. Black is here to serve you.”

　　Glenn was stunned for a moment, and set the weapon mode in a half-awake state.

　　”Black, destroy this mecha hangar from the southwest corner. Set the subsequent route… Set sail 24 stars outside Thunderstone.”

　　”yes.”

　　•=|=•

　　Hawthorne almost fainted from the pain and had to bite his lips to prevent himself from crying out in pain.

　　Apart from the strange clothes he was forced to wear, the second in command of Gray Pigeon was indeed a tough guy, a real tough guy. But Mr. Hawthorne was afraid of pain, very, very afraid of pain.

　　Through his physiologically blurred eyes, Hawthorne vaguely saw the silver-white steel giant soar into the air, with a series of smooth and agile movements. With the huge roar of the particle cannon, the steel fortress that held the mecha shattered into a terrifying gap, and the night wind with heat waves rushed in.

　　The silver-white S-class mecha disappeared from the crack in an instant as if it was unmanned.

　　The interstellar pirates opened their mouths or glared, and no one’s expression was calmer than the other, except for the leader.

　　”That bitch lied to me.” Hawthorne muttered to himself.

　　”She colluded with my people to deceive me?”
