Major General, a Male Zerg has been found on the battlefield!!

32



Today, Rhys didn’t stay at the military base all day handling official business. He specifically took half a day off, keeping it secret from his male lord, and came to the hospital.

The unusual thing happened a week ago. That morning, he didn’t wake up promptly as usual to prepare breakfast for his male lord. He slept until nearly late, only to be awakened by his male lord.

Rhys thought it was due to his male lord’s recent excessive demands, which his female body couldn’t bear, so he didn’t pay too much attention to it.

Over the following week, he found himself unable to concentrate during meetings and feeling lazy during training, always reluctant to move.

It was only when Jack noticed Rhys’s abnormality and asked if he was feeling unwell and needed to call the private doctor to check on him.

Rhys himself didn’t have an easily prone-to-illness constitution. It could be said that all female zergs in the higher zerg race wouldn’t get sick easily. They could maintain their optimal physical condition and continue fighting even when seriously injured on the battlefield.

The only thing that could make a female zerg weak was the possibility of having little zerg egg.

During the first two weeks of a female zerg carrying zerg eggs, the body would show a series of reactions, a reminder from the little egg suddenly appearing in the body to protect himself and the offspring.

This possibility caused Rhys’s adrenaline to surge. He hesitated for a few seconds and hurriedly found private doctor Baya’s contact information to make an appointment for this afternoon to go for a checkup.

Rhys didn’t want to cause a stir, but fortunately, zerg hospitals were never too crowded.

Before coming, Rhys changed out of his military uniform into a casual cloak-like outfit specifically to cover his striking silver hair.

Inside a clean and tidy room, Rhys nervously surveyed the various instruments.

He had been hoping to conceive a little zerg egg with his male lord for a long time. Now that his body finally showed a response, Rhys was still worried that it might be a figment of his imagination.

If it wasn’t, how disappointed his male lord would be!

Rhys dared not disclose any news to He Qin. He planned to inform his male lord of the successful conception only after receiving confirmation from the examination.

“Please lie down and lift your clothes up a bit.”

At Dr. Buya’s signal, Rhys raised his shirt to expose his abdomen. Dr. Buya was applying some gel onto Rhys’s beautifully toned abdomen.

The square-shaped probe head was placed on Rhys’s abdomen. As the cold metal surface of the instrument touched him, Rhys’s abdominal muscles tensed momentarily.

After a while, the green light on the instrument’s head changed to a blinking red light. “Congratulations, it seems the zerg egg has been developing for about two weeks.”

Buya pulled out a wet tissue from the side and handed it to Major General Rhys. He then tapped a few times on the machine. Subsequently, the results of this examination were transmitted to the major general’s mailbox.

“Major General, are you familiar with the basic physiology during pregnancy?” Buya didn’t know whether the major general was happy or not. From the major general’s perpetually icy expression, no emotions could be discerned.

“Yes, I’ve studied it before.”

Rhys maintained a cold demeanor, merely habitually protecting himself in front of outsiders. In reality, he was excited and at a loss inside.

Even his movement to get up from the examination bed was slower than usual. Yes, he was afraid that any sudden movement might frighten the zerg egg inside his belly.

“During pregnancy, remember to maintain regular contact with the male zerg, otherwise the zerg egg may not develop properly.” Facing the cold major general who was pregnant, Buya, as a doctor, reminded him in a timely manner before the major general left.

He Qin was now eagerly looking forward to the day he could go to Earth. Once he started anticipating certain things, time seemed to stretch endlessly.

Currently, he didn’t have much work and could only stay at home all day. Why not go find Rhys to play with!

During working hours, He Qin wouldn’t easily disturb Rhys out of concern for his work.

However, if the male zerg could go to the military base, the female zergs would only welcome him, not reject him.

Most of the military female zergs in the military base were single, and just seeing a male zerg or catching a whiff of a male zerg’s scent would excite them all day long. How could there be any foolish female zergs who would reject a male zerg’s arrival?

“Let me take you in, Your Highness He Qin.” The guarding military female zerg often saw this male zerg when Major General Rhys went to and from work. Today, since the major general wasn’t here, the responsibility to escort the male zerg fell on him, which was simply a dream come true.

This military female zerg held a higher rank than the other military female zerg and ordered his companion to temporarily change shifts. He warmly led He Qin inside.

“You may have to wait in the general’s office for a while. The major general took a half-day leave this afternoon and hasn’t returned yet.”

The military female zerg escorted him to the office building and then had to leave. Taking this time to spend with the male zerg was already not easy. If the majot general caught him leaving the post during guard duty, the consequences would be dire.

“Is he out?”

He Qin had been to this building several times before and knew the way to Rhys’s office well. He swiped the pass Rhys had given him at the elevator, which connected directly to Rhys’s office.

“Jack, is Rhys out?” Instead of entering directly, He Qin poked his head in and opened the door to Jack’s office area.

As the adjutant, Jack’s office was right by Rhys’s office door. The entire area was made of one-way glass so that as the adjutant, he could promptly distinguish whether visitors coming to see the major general were those the major general wanted to see.

However, this visitor was definitely someone the major general would be willing to see unconditionally.

“The major general had an external assignment this afternoon, but he should be back soon. Please go in and wait for him.” Jack scanned the pass on the keypad and opened the door for the male zerg.

As Rhys’s adjutant, Jack had to take good care of the male zerg for Rhys. However, his more important task today was to cover for Rhys.

Only Jack, a female zerg, knew that Rhys had gone to a private doctor for prenatal check-ups. Before the major general left, he specifically instructed Jack not to let anyone know what he was up to, especially Lord He Qin.

“Major General, Lord He Qin came to see you. I told him you were on an external assignment, and Lord He Qin didn’t seem suspicious.”

“When did he arrive?”

“Not long ago, about ten minutes ago.”

“Bring out the box of Earth sweets the general gave me this morning. I’m already on my way back.”

“Understood, Major General.”

Jack left and discreetly reported to Rhys. Rhys had very few contacts in his light-brain, with He Qin consistently occupying the top spot, followed closely by Jack.

Knowing that the male lord was waiting for news at the military base, Rhys pushed the aircraft’s throttle to the maximum. The female zergs on the way could only feel a strange gust of wind passing overhead. By the time they looked up, there was nothing in the sky anymore.

He Qin, holding a large blue metal box in his arms, was leaning over, earnestly rummaging through something when Rhys opened the door.

The click of the door startled He Qin, making him accidentally drop some chocolate chip cookies into the box. “Rhys? Do you want some?” He then fished out the dropped cookie from a pile of yellow cream cookies, his hand covered in cookie crumbs, reaching out to Rhys.

He Qin enjoyed sweets, and rather than the cream cookies, he preferred chocolate chip cookies. During Rhys’s return, He Qin had been diligently working through that box of cookies.

“First, wipe your hands.” Rhys pulled tissues from a nearby box and wiped the oily residue from the male zerg’s mouth and hands, then picked up the cookie crumbs from the sofa and floor one by one.

It seemed the male lord had started eating cookies at his desk but later found the position uncomfortable, so he moved to the left-side sofa while eating, leaving cookie crumbs scattered everywhere.

“Try this quickly. It’s an Earth snack; this piece of chocolate is the last one.” Like a child eager to share a toy with a friend, He Qin offered the cookie to Rhys’s lips.

Rhys glanced at his male lord’s face and opened his mouth to eat the cookie from his lips.

Females zergs didn’t like sweets, and Rhys was the same. He had never touched food with too much sugar since childhood, without exception. However, all principles were overturned in front of his beloved male lord.

Rhys licked his lips with his tongue, feeling the warmth left by the male zerg’s fingers on his lips. Only then did his body relax, and he let go of the vigilance outside.

“Have you been busy lately?” He Qin noticed the fatigue in Rhys’s eyes. In all this time, he had never seen Rhys so mentally fragile, which made him worried.

Between them, Rhys had always taken meticulous care of him, but he also placed Rhys in the most important position.

“Male Lord, do you like offspring?” Rhys nervously asked this question, too afraid to meet the male zerg’s gaze again, his eyes once again fixed on the floor beneath his feet.

During this time together, Rhys learned that He Qin was a male zerg willing to respect female zerg’s wishes. If he said he wanted this child, the male lord would not refuse.

Rhys believed that if this child was defined as an unwelcome offspring before birth, the child might as well not be born into this world.

“What did you say?” After returning from the K19 galaxy, He Qin did not know which switch had been turned on, and his emotional intelligence had rapidly improved. Now, he could directly discern the deeper meanings behind certain words.

“Did you just go to see a doctor, Rhys?”

He Qin’s gaze stopped at Rhys’s abdomen, “Are you pregnant?” His voice was extremely low, afraid that speaking too loudly would startle the seemingly nervous Rhys.

“Mm.” The male zerg’s tone was only surprised, not particularly happy, which made Rhys bow his head even lower.

Like awaiting judgment from the zerg Star, Rhys waited for the male zerg’s next words, even breathing lightly.

He Qin didn’t have a strong reaction, only because he was still digesting this news. “Rhys, I love you, and I look forward to the arrival of this child.” He embraced the female zerg, who had lowered his head, gently rubbing his face against Rhys’s.

In a place Rhys couldn’t see, tears welled up in the male zerg’s eyes.

Rhys was stunned by the male zerg’s sudden confession of love. Love? Since childhood, he had only known a female father’s love. At fourteen, he left his female father and joined the military. At that time, fighting desperately on the battlefield, he was not qualified to have ‘love’.

So he was loved too? “Male Lord, I love you too.” Rhys put his arms around the male zerg’s back and hugged him tightly.

“Then, is there already a child here? I really can’t imagine what it will be like when it’s born.” He Qin reached out to touch the still firm abdomen of the female zerg.

It was truly unimaginable that this flat area already held their offspring.

“Male Lord, actually, there’s only an unformed egg here, and when it’s born, it will just be an oval egg.” Rhys’s expression coldly shattered the male lord’s beautiful fantasy.

This was also the truth. The zergs were oviparous creatures, only able to leave the female zerg’s body in the form of an egg. Afterwards, there would be a month in an incubator before hatching could occur.

“So, I don’t have a child, I have an ‘egg’?”

No!!!

What he wanted to see was a little angel with fair skin, not a round, big white egg.

Outside, Jack heard the male zerg’s wailing from the major general’s office and quietly plugged his ears with noise-canceling earplugs.

Author’s note: Jack: Today am still a single female zerg who suffers abuse even through walls.
