Chapter Volume 2 54





As soon as he entered the door, a white ball of hair immediately threw itself over to him and pulled down at his trousers, crying and whimpering. Only then did Brian remember that he had been busy all day and he actually forgot to give Lil\' Hobby some food. This little guy is probably starving to death.


In any case, the banquet is overly crowded with people. It doesn\'t matter if you bring in a house pet too. Brian walks up to a corner with Hobby in his embrace, picks his favorite cheese, and sits down to the sofa on the side to feed him.


Just as he began feeding him, the little guy in his arms suddenly shrunk back his head in fear, grabbing his pair of big ears to obstinately shelter his face.


Brian somewhat confusedly poked his ears, "Hey, what are you doing? Encounter a natural predator?"


Hobby trembled while trying to cover up his face.


Just then, a gentle and steady voice suddenly sounded on the top of his head: "Brian, is this a pet you\'re keeping?"


Brian suddenly looked up with a sudden realization and saw that His Majesty Trent was standing right in front of him, bearing a bit of a smile on his face. Furthermore, coming along with him to his side is his grandfather, Aston. Evidently, the two has just happened to be passing by here.


The white ball of hair in his arms shook even more terribly.


Brian hurriedly stood up and respectfully made his salutations and said: "Your Majesty, this is my classmate\'s pet, I am temporarily taking him with me to look after for a couple of days."


Trent reached out and lightly stroked Hobby\'s ears, complimenting with a low voice: "It\'s pretty cute."


Hobby: "..............."


Only until after His Majesty Trent turned around to leave did Hobby lift up his head trembling with fear, tearfully looking at His Majesty\'s retreating figure.


His Majesty didn\'t capture and take him back?


⁠—Didn\'t he clearly recognize him just now? Could he be going back to go tell the Queen to dispatch other people to catch him?


The more Hobby thought about it the sadder he became and he fearfully pulled back his head in Brian\'s embrace.


The party that lasted for a whole day was finally over and the guests that came left just as fast. After no more than ten minutes of the production ending, the hall that had just been clamoring with noise immediately became deserted.


Brian arranged several robots to clean the hall, holding Hobby he went back to his room, he poked its ear while he asked: "Hey, Lil\' Hobby, what was up with you just now? When you saw His Majesty you were so scared, do you know him?"


Hobby hung his head, very aggrievedly on the screen wrote: "I was originally Queen Anna\'s pet, the Queen wanted to take me to breed a small litter...... I secretly ran away, after which I was taken in and cared for by my Owner."


Brian froze a moment and then very bluntly laughed out loud.


Hobby looked up and glared at him with his red eyes brimming with tears.


After Brian laughed to his satisfaction he then poked his belly and said, "Give birth to a small litter? That\'s a pretty good idea! Quickly go give birth, however many you give birth to, give them to my family with Snow to raise. Just give birth to white ones, Snow will definitely like it."


Hobby: "..............."


Hobby aggrievedly turned his head, no longer paying attention to Brian.


After Brian teased him enough, only then did he put away his smiling expression and place Hobby back in the temporarily-built nest and turn around to go to his bedroom.


When he brought up Snow, in the bottom of his heart, there was an intense longing suddenly rising from the bottom of his heart, that intense longing resembled gradually surging tides, rapidly flooding all the way throughout his entire heart.


—It\'s already been several days without seeing him, I don\'t know if Snow is doing alright or not?


After coming back to the capital star, Brian was constantly occupied preparing for the upcoming birthday party and only occasionally found the time to get in touch with Snow, but his communicator was always shut off. Brian thought he was experimenting in the laboratory and he did not go bother him for the time being.


His father, Drew, is busy with military affairs and his Dad, Berg, is also not good with these dinner parties. It can be said that for this birthday party, Brian had been concentrated on it from beginning to end. Every element of the setup, every name on the guest\'s list, and even every single menu had been personally looked over by him. Actually, this had also been General Drew\'s idea, he wanted his good-for-nothing sole son to learn from experience for a bit.


Fortunately, Brian did not let his father down. He usually laughed and joked with no seriousness, however this time he surprisingly managed it in a very proper manner. His Grandfather\'s birthday banquet this year is also very respectable, the place was not lacking in any manners, to say the least.


Finally, when the all-day-long birthday banquet was over, Brian immediately felt that the stone that was pressing on his heart drop to the ground, incomparably relaxing and carefree.


Sitting down on his bedside, he took out his communicator and input the number that he practically knew by heart, he wanted to have a nice chat with Snow. The spherical communicator began to spin at high speed and after a while, it sounded an "unable to connect" speech. Brian frowned and entered the number again. The result was still "unable to connect."


Brian couldn\'t help but wonder a bit, what is Snow doing? Why can\'t he get through?


When he tried calling him a few days before it was during the daytime. Switching off his communicator in the lab was justifiable. But now it is at 11 o\'clock in the evening. His daily life schedule of working and resting is very regular. He should be in the dormitory at this time, right? Could he be taking a shower?


He somewhat anxiously waited for a few minutes, and once again dialed and was still unable to connect. A trace of unease suddenly rose from the bottom of Brian\'s heart and the thought about the circumstance of him not being able to contact him for the past few days, the uneasiness became even more enlarged like vines rapidly spreading in his heart.


Brian\'s face slightly sunk and switched to dialing Senior Shirley\'s number.


A beautiful schoolgirl soon appeared in front of him. She had just been in the living room watching TV. She immediately got up and went to the balcony after receiving the video. Her thick curls appeared extraordinarily charming as they bounced on her shoulders while walking.


Shirley faced Brian, looking at his face which seemed down in the dumps. She smiled and said: "Hey, Brian, ah. What did you call me for?"


Brian then asked bluntly: "Where is Snow?"


Shirley was surprised all of a sudden, "Snow? You\'re not still eating our vinegar, are you? You have been together with Snow for so long. Don\'t tell me he didn\'t tell you that he was just playing pretend with me?"


Brian said in a low voice: "Cough, of course, I believe that there is nothing between you and Snow. I just want to ask my Senior Sister, how has your experiment\'s progress been in the past few days? Are you both staying in the lab all day? How can I keep getting in touch with him?"


Shirley stared blankly, "What progress of the experiment?"


Brian doubtfully asked: "Your graduation project is in the final stages. Isn\'t he experimenting together with you?"


Shirley also doubtfully said: "I went home to see my parents during my vacation. I haven\'t been doing experiments together with Snow, ah...... Did you misunderstand something?"


Brian suddenly froze and was silent for a moment, and then said: "It\'s nothing, Senior Sister, I\'ve bothered you."


After switching off his communicator, Brian sat back on his bed, his heart is both ice-cold and mixed with a violently strong fury!


⁠—Snow actually lied to him!


What wanting to stay behind at school for a few days to do experiments during vacation, what Senior Shirley\'s graduation project is in the final stage and must stay behind as an assistant, these are total lies!!


The more Brian thinks about it the angrier he is.


The two of them have been together for a month, yet Snow is always mysterious and secretive, never taking the initiative to look for him, and never actively talking to him. Brian is more than happy to warmly stick himself on him and would be exceedingly happy at the smallest response from Snow. He had thought that Snow being frigid and quite emotionally passive was the cause. Now that he thinks about it......


This is not passive, it is simply not taking him seriously!


For Snow, this boyfriend called Brian is a completely dispensable existence. Not to mention seven days apart, even seventy days or seven hundred days apart, Snow wouldn\'t take the initiative to contact him regardless.


When he thinks of it, it makes him angry while at the same time Brian feels that there is also a bit of unspeakable grievance at the bottom of my heart......


Snow, do you really not like me even a little bit? You didn\'t tell me where you went nor did you want to get in touch with me at all for these past few days.


But...... I miss you so much......


Dialing his communicator several times in a row, he is still unable to connect. It was finally more than Brian could bear. He stood up and said: "Little Blue!!!"


"......here!", Little Blue who was just in hibernation mode was scared by his master\'s loud bellow of rage that almost caused its mind to short circuit. He hurriedly came out from the space button trembling with fear and seriously asked: "Ma-Master, what is your order?"


Brian said with a steady and collected face: "Give me the detailed coordinates of Night Snow\'s position!!"


"......understood!"


Back when Brian made Night Snow, although the first order issued to Night Snow was to always be loyal to it\'s Master, Snow, however, the appearance of unexpected circumstances couldn\'t be helped. He installed a location tracking system in Night Snow\'s body. As long as Night Snow does not actively shield the tracking, Little Blue here can locate its detailed coordinates.


Brian ordered Little Blue to immediately launch the tracking system and it quickly calculated the coordinates of Night Snow within thirty seconds.


Little Blue seriously replied: "Master, Night Snow\'s current coordinates are Cepheus Galaxy in the capital star, -145."


Brian\'s face goes slightly ridgid⁠—


He is actually in the capital star? !


Moreover, his current coordinates are even at a negative value? Is this underground??


Could someone have locked him up?!


At a single thought of the possibility that "Snow is in trouble", Brian\'s heart felt like it was being harshly gripped by someone! He usually places Snow at the bottommost point of his heart, there wasn\'t even any time left to feel hurt. If Snow is ever hurt anywhere, Brian would absolutely suffer even more pain himself than being stabbed with a knife by someone!


Brian no longer hesitated and immediately left the Bayh residence together with Little Blue.


At the door of his house, he suddenly ran across General Drew who had just seen off His Majesty. Drew saw his son hurriedly rushing out and couldn\'t help but frown. "Brian, where are you going in the middle of the night?"


Worried that Snow had come into trouble, Brian already quickly becoming panicked and couldn\'t explain it to his father for a while and only half-heartedly spoke just to get him out of the way: "I made an appointment with Caesar. It\'s a bit of a pressing matter so I must......"


As Brian stopped speaking he moved to leave but Drew blocked him. With a cold face, he said: "I just saw Caesar. He said that he would be going back to the hotel first and to have me to tell you he\'d see you later."


When all is said and done, he was his own flesh and blood son, Brian\'s half-hearted attitude and obvious lies made Drew deeply frown, "It\'s the middle of the night and you\'re hurriedly rushing off, what are you doing? Get back here!"


Brian: "......"


Drew furiously said: "Little Blue!!"


Little Blue: "......"


—If Little Blue was a human being, it would have long since been frightened into having a heart attack. When this pair of father and son yelled, each one was scarier than the other.


The father and son became deadlocked right at the door when a cold and gentle voice suddenly came through from the side, "What is this?"


Brian\'s eyes lit up as if he had met a savior, he immediately smiled and hid behind Berg saying: "Pa, I have a bit of an urgent matter I must attend to. I have a classmate coming to the capital star. I have to go to the Space Station to pick him up. Father is blocking my path and won\'t let me go......"


Berg raised his eyebrows and looked over at Drew.


The anger on Drew\'s face vanished like smoke in thin air and he smiled and walked over to wrap a hand around his wife\'s shoulder. He softly said: "Cough, what are you doing out so late at night, it\'s too cold outside, your body also isn\'t good...... Quickly go back." As soon as he finished speaking he took off his coat and draped it over him.


Berg looked at Brian and asked: "Go and pick up a classmate?"


Brian hurriedly said: "This is his first time coming to the capital star, he\'s not familiar around here, I will pick him up and see him off to the hotel!"


Berg nodded and calmly said: "Go, but come back early."


Brian probingly looked at his father. Drew gave him a fleeting glare, "Don\'t return too early, fuck off!"


Brian was more than happy to fuck off and immediately piloted Little Blue away.


Only until that blue mech disappeared from his line of sight did Berg say in a soft voice: "You follow after him."


Drew became surprised all of a sudden and looked back at the man protected in his embrace, and said unconvinced: "Follow after him...... That\'s not necessary, right?"


Berg said seriously: "Our son\'s behavior these past few days is a bit strange. He said he wanted to make a healing-type mech out of the blue and he\'s even been preoccupied all day long. Then, in the middle of the night, he runs out saying he has to pick up a classmate without rhyme or reason. Do you really believe it?"


Drew: "......"


Berg looked at him from the side of his eyes: "Still not willing to go?"


Drew hurriedly smiled and said: "Okay okay, I\'ll listen to you. Quickly go back inside the house, I will go take a look."


Only then did Berg nod his head and turned around to go back inside the house.


The four-star general of the Hydra Legion, General Drew Bayh, under the command of his wife, went to tail his own son in the middle of the night.


The S-Class mech Viper was summoned and released from the space button by its master and immediately enabled its invisible anti-tracking function. It then soared up high, rising up in the air and quickly caught up with Brian.


***


Brian anxiously flew towards the coordinates as if he was on fire.


He was completely unaware that the mech of his father, Drew, was placing his two eyes on him, monitoring from a high altitude of several kilometers above his head.


Inside Little Blue\'s cockpit, the silver location point of Night Snow is getting closer and closer and Brian\'s heart also grows more and more shocked!


—What is this dead city?!


The field of nearly 100 kilometers is desolate and uninhabited, the ground is covered with weeds more than one foot high due to there being no one to care for it, all kinds of trees grow particularly thick and in a jumble too. There are also almost no air suspension traffic lanes here and there are also no decent streets on the ground. The streets are like a primitive jungle that has already been abandoned and uninhabited for a long time.


Nearby there is a very large castle, it seems to have a dead atmosphere, there is not an inkling of bright light from the entire castle...... You can only roughly see the silhouette of the castle through the moonlight and the high wall erected from the outside casts an immense shadow on the ground. Occasionally, there are crows flying overhead in the sky, making this dark lacquered castle seem even the more eerie and frightening.


Brian soon had Little Blue stop at the entrance of the castle, zooming in on the navigation map near the coordinates and the silver target point on the screen began to light up. Clearly, Night Snow is in this castle!


—Why is Snow here? What is he doing running off to this ghastly place?!


Brian wrinkled his brows and piloted Little Blue to the entrance of the sealed-off castle.


The entrance to the castle was completely sealed off and could not be entered at all. Brian ordered in a low voice: "Little Blue, look up and investigate the history of this castle."


Little Blue immediately began to check out the query and after a while, it concluded: "Master, according to the geographical location of this castle, it should be the former Locke Castle."


—Locke Castle? I have never heard of it!


Brian walked up to the dashboard and carefully looked at the information that Little Blue had transferred from its network database.


The pictures on the screen are of Locke Castle, which are more than fifty years old. Although it was not regarded as flourishing, it surprisingly appeared to be bustling with noise and excitement. According to the data, there were nearly 20,000 residents here. More than 50 years ago, a kind of virus called SAV-II spread rapidly in this castle, causing residents in the city to become infected by the virus and die within a short period of time. The originally bustling and lively place became a dreadful hell overnight.


Thanks to Locke Castle being rather far away from other cities, the virus did not spread out in a short period of time. The military feared that the virus would continue to spread so immediately after they heard about it, they sealed off the castle, cut off all communications and network links between the castle and the outside world, and cast down a large number of biological and chemical weapons to exterminate the virus from high up in the air.


Since then, the castle has been uninhabited and became a real "City of the Dead."


After such a long time passed, the castle was encompassed with overgrown weeds, trees that reached the sky, a towering city wall, and human bones piled up outside, revealing a chilly sinister forest in the dead of night.


It was more than fifty years ago, it\'s no wonder that Brian had never heard the name of this "Locke Castle."


—What is Snow doing here? Did he come on his own or was he snatched by someone?


The more Brian thought about it, the more worried he became, after being silent for a moment, he suddenly ordered: "Little Blue! We\'re going in to take a look!"


During the time he was at home these past few days, he just happened to modify Little Blue in accordance with his previous train of thought and had put an upper garnet on its body. The large wings are made of blue metal and are ordinarily retracted in its shoulders and will unfold like a wing when the flight system is started!


Little Blue has never flown before, hearing the master\'s order, it immediately opened its wings with excitement and rose up high in the air, it had just barely flown into the castle when it suddenly saw a large mech across and facing them, obstructing their path!


He only saw that the shape of the mech was like a Hydra, the whole body was dark green, the huge head had a pair of green that faintly flashed with strange cold light, and the myriad of scales erected on its body were like the sharpest knives. As the tail swayed back and forth, the surrounding air was brought up in a terrifying burst of a whirlwind!


—It\'s Viper! General Drew\'s personal S-Class mech!


In front of him, General Drew\'s face appeared full of anger on his communicator, "Go down!"


He violently shouted, not only was Little Blue scared without end and almost crashed, even Brian was frightened into startled into a jump.


His father\'s S-Class mech Viper actually went so far as to directly interfere with Little Blue\'s intelligence center by employing electromagnetic waves to forcibly invade the mech\'s internal communication system! Brian completely did not expect that his own father would keep behind him and follow him!


Drew looked at his son\'s shocked face in front of him and in a stern voice said: "Is this the place you should be at? Why haven\'t you fucked off yet?!"


Brian, who was used to being yelled at by his father since he was a child, remained greatly unmoved with General Drew\'s bellows of rage. He raised his head up and directly met his father\'s gaze and stubbornly said: "Don\'t you stop me! I need to go in and save someone, I have a friend who is still inside the castle!"


***


In the underground city of Locke Castle, Snow finally woke up.


Looking up at the harsh incandescent lamp from the top of his head, Snow couldn\'t tell where he was for a moment.


Night Snow\'s voice came from inside the space button on his chest: "Master, are you alright?"


"En...... I\'m fine..."


Snow had a bit of a headache pressing against his temples. According to his physical condition, the trace of neuro-anesthetic he was given stupefied him. Recalling the scene at the time, except for the man\'s dark blue military boots and his cold and faint scent, he did not remember anything else.


—Who could that have been?


Snow wondered with some doubts that back then, a portion of the members in the Undercurrent Organizations was hunted down and imprisoned during the large-scale pursuit by the military, while the other portion of them secretly went into hiding. Who would return to this underground city? Would their purpose to come back also be an inhibitor?


He doesn\'t know how long he has been unconscious. Luckily, he hasn\'t been injured. It seems that person doesn\'t have any ill intent against him.


Snow massaged his aching head and neck then stood up and quickly went through some medicines in the large freezer from memory. He called Night Snow out and put them in its storage space and also brought some pharmaceutical equipment in passing. Then he turned and walked to the door.


When he walked to the door, he realized that the door had been locked in......


It seems that person who knocked him out must be a member of the Undercurrent. Locking in the door to prevent others from walking in was actually a kind of act of protection.


An inexplicable trace of warmth emerges in his heart.


The Undercurrent Organization had been destroyed long ago, the Omegas can only survive living in the cracks of society, they will have a very special feeling of affinity for one another.


Snow opened the door and sped walked to the lift. When he walked into the corridor, he constantly felt a little strange. This underground city undoubtedly only has three levels. Why does he always feel that there is something under his feet? Occasionally, he can even hear the sound of machinery revolving?


However, time is of the essence, it is also not good for Snow to stay here any longer. He no longer hesitates to take the lift and leave here as soon as possible.


***


Outside the city, the father and son, Brian and Drew sharply fought.


Drew blocked Brian\'s path and wouldn\'t let him enter, but Brian was dead set on breaking into the dead city. The two were stuck in a deadlock when suddenly, they saw a figure up on the side of the castle! They could only see that the person was thinly built and their movements were dexterous. He decisively leaps few times without hesitation and then jumped right onto the highest city wall, quickly going down the length of the wall and slid down, steadily landing on the ground!


The silvery-white moonlight draped over that person\'s body with a soft layer of light and shadow. The youth who leaped over the side of the castle was as lithe as a soaring skylark. The pale skin complexion is almost transparent under the illumination of the moonlight, and his thin lips tightly pursed together, revealing an aloofness with a touch of arrogance and indifference.


Brian: "........."


If he didn\'t recognize his figure and body shape at a glance, the silver space button on his chest with Night Snow, Brian would have even mistakenly thought that it was a ghost crossing over this dead city!


After a moment of being shocked, Brian no longer quarreled with his father and decisively landed on the ground, and exited out the cockpit of his mech, rushing to throw himself on Snow and hold him in his arms like a large dog, because of his worry, his voice was slightly trembling, "Yo-You are you okay?"


"........." Snow was suddenly frozen where he stood.


Just as he climbed over from inside the castle, a large pet wasted no time throw itself on him in a head-on collision. Snow was frightened and flinched. After realizing it was Brian, his complexion went to an even fainter white.


—Brian? Why is he here?


Snow still hadn\'t managed to respond as General Drew also landed and came out of the cockpit. He walked up to face the two, frowning slightly.


Brian perceived his father\'s approach and immediately turned to defensively keep Snow behind him. He smiled and said: "This is my classmate. I will take him back to the hotel first, ah. I will explain it to you later......"


Brian\'s intuition told him that this castle had some sort of secret, it was extremely unusual for his father to stop him from entering so resolutely.


He also doesn\'t know what Snow was doing coming out here. He wore a strange black attire and leather boots, and an enormous hood that completely covered his hair up. Although his manner of dressing has a sort of sexual appeal in it\'s suppressed sensual passion, but...... Wearing this style of dress coming out from a castle in the dead of night like this, isn\'t it also way too suspicious?!


Regardless of Snow\'s purpose for being here, Brian\'s first thought was to protect Snow first and foremost.


Brian pulled Snow and was about to leave, but he heard Drew sternly shouting: "Halt!"


The two simultaneously stopped in their steps, Snow\'s back became even stiffer in an instant.


—Was he found out? The man in front of him is wearing a military uniform, is he a military officer? Will he arrest him?


Snow\'s thoughts were in a whirl, there was even a layer of cold sweat on his palm.


Brian perceived the trembling fingertips of the young man to his side and immediately held his hand in comfort.


Drew\'s penetrating gaze focused solely on Snow and he sternly asked: "Who are you? What are you doing at Locke Castle?!"


General Drew had a straightforward temperament and was only relatively gentle and soft in front of his wife, Berg. Ordinarily in front of his Legion and his subordinates, and even in front of his own son, Brian, his whole manner was serious and upright. Brian was used to being yelled at by him since he was little to point where it no longer mattered, but Snow, he himself would hate to speak such harsh words to Snow, how could he let him yell at him like that?


Brian was very upset and at last, he couldn\'t help but say: "Old man! Don\'t you be so vicious, that behavior is out of the question, alright?! This is your daughter-in-law!!"


Snow: "........."


Drew: "........."


Snow felt that he has never been so embarrassed in his entire life.


The author has something to say: Bubu completely inherited his father\'s loyal dog personality, in front of his wife, wagging his tail and kissing up to them and what not is my favorite ^_^


(TN: Whelp I started school, hate it, what else is new, huh? I\'ll translate with my free period and lunch and all, but I\'ll still be a bit slower than I was before. Forget about all of that boring droll stuff though, Brian and Snow are finally starting to get some more action and yet another terrible first meeting of the father lmao. Old Man Drew v.s. Papa Rosen, hate to see them get in a fight lol.)
