I Have a Date with a Thousand-year-old Female Corpse-Chapter 1313: The Invitation from the Military Department

Chapter 1313: Chapter 1313: The Invitation from the Military Department

In terms of academics, you achieved exceptionally outstanding results. You cracked some expert-level CO codes in just half a month, earning a scholarship of 300,000 Galaxy Coins from the school and receiving an invitation letter from the Galactic Alliance Army.

According to the information you obtained, the Galactic Alliance Army has been progressing smoothly at the frontline, capturing nearly half of the New Moon Galaxy’s territory in just a month.

However, one puzzling thing is that the Galactic Alliance Army’s forces are gradually expanding. With the war nearing its conclusion, they are aggressively conscripting soldiers, causing neighboring star systems to heighten their vigilance. This is especially true for the Utopia Galaxy, which has long-standing grievances with the Galactic Alliance. The residents of the Utopia Galaxy differ significantly from humans in form, and they possess super warriors that strike fear into the Galactic Alliance. It is said that the most powerful warriors can destroy a small asteroid instantly.

While the Galactic Alliance continued its invasion of the New Moon Galaxy, the New Moon Galaxy sent representatives to offer territory in exchange for peace. In response, the Utopia Galaxy issued a warning to the Galactic Alliance, stating that if they continued their aggression during peace talks, they would assist the New Moon Galaxy in resisting the Galactic Alliance.

To all of this, you sneered, "Hmph, so-called peace talks are just empty words. The Galactic Alliance would never pass up such a golden opportunity. The great war is imminent; it seems I can’t stay here any longer."

"You, are you leaving?" Upon hearing that you were leaving Zhonghua Star, Pang Qin’s face was filled with reluctance. Over the course of the past month, she discovered that her heart had slowly gravitated toward you.

"Yes, I have to leave." You were already packing, though there wasn’t much to pack aside from a few books.

"Will you come back?" Pang Gaozhu had gone out, leaving only you and Pang Qin at home. You originally planned to tell Pang Gaozhu, but speaking with Pang Qin was the same.

"Probably not." Your tone of voice seemed as unchanging as ever.

"You, I..." Pang Qin stared straight at you, while you, with your back to her, continued packing your books.

"What? Do you have something to say?"

"I... I like you!" Pang Qin shouted as she ran out.

Hearing Pang Qin’s words, your hand visibly trembled for a moment, but you still maintained a composed demeanor.

It’s just a game, isn’t it?

Moreover, you can no longer distinguish who your real wife is.

This is the deadliest aspect of this game. Thus, unless absolutely certain, you would never allow yourself to become emotionally involved with anyone.

You didn’t say farewell to Pang Qin but chose to leave alone.

Two neighboring planets can transport people through a transmission center, such as Mars and Earth, but this is limited to individuals. You, however, need to travel to the Otto Star System under the jurisdiction of the Galactic Alliance. The Otto Star System, located at the edge of the Milky Way Galaxy, has only two habitable planets; the rest are energy development planets. To reach Otto, you must take a spaceship, and at this moment, you are heading to the Zhonghua Star Spaceport.

"Stop." Your taxi was intercepted by guard soldiers.

"What’s going on?" you asked the taxi driver.

"No idea," the driver shook his head.

"Please show your ID cards." A soldier saluted the two of you at the window, and after inspecting them, he said to you, "Apologies, the Military Department has issued a travel ban on you. You are not allowed to leave the country at this time."

"Why?"

"I’m not certain either; it’s an order from above. If you have any questions, you can inquire directly with the Military Department."

You exhaled deeply and said to the driver, "Take me back."

Upon returning to the dormitory, you found the door slightly ajar. Entering your room, you heard the sound of a girl crying from Pang Qin’s room. Alarmed, you immediately knocked on the door, "Pang Qin, are you in there?"

At the sound of your voice, the crying stopped abruptly. The door opened, and Pang Qin threw herself into your arms, clutching you tightly and crying out, "I thought you left! You all don’t want me anymore!"

Your hands remained suspended in the air, hesitating to make any move, yet you couldn’t bring yourself to harshly reject Pang Qin. You let her hold you as tears streamed down her face and onto your clothing.

After a long while, Pang Qin finally let go and stepped back a few steps. Her eyes continued to glisten with tears, her expression pitifully melancholic. Unable to bear it, you gently wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes. Misunderstanding your intentions, Pang Qin once again threw herself into your arms, crying even harder this time. Helpless, you slowly allowed one of your hands to pass around Pang Qin’s slender waist, gently patting her back.

"Don’t cry anymore." At this moment, that’s all you knew to say.

"Brother left, and now you’re leaving too. I thought you all didn’t want me anymore," Pang Qin said through her sobs.

"Where did Gaozhu go?"

"He joined the army. He said he owed you too much, and given his current situation, there was no way he could repay it. So, joining the army was his only option." As she spoke, her tears began to flow again, "Brother Mu Yun, I’m so scared. Please don’t leave me."

You began to understand Gaozhu’s reasoning, and you sighed slightly in your heart.

Based on what you inferred, Pang Gaozhu’s enlistment served two purposes: First, to find an opportunity to turn his fortunes around. Second, he believed his sister Pang Qin had fallen for you, and his departure would facilitate your relationship.

Although you felt some aversion in your heart, you didn’t voice it.

"Don’t worry. While your brother is away, I will take care of you," you sighed inwardly.

"Is anyone home?" A male voice sounded from outside the door. Pang Qin immediately disentangled herself from your embrace, her face flushing red, and ran into her room.

You smirked. From Pang Qin, you didn’t feel any significant emotional fluctuations. Thus, she likely wasn’t your wife, which you kept in mind quietly.

"Yes, I’m here."

"Hello, I’m Lieutenant Jialin." The man was a soldier, appearing to be around twenty-five years old.

"Hello. Who are you looking for?"

"Are you Mu Yun?"

"Yes," you nodded.

"This is an invitation letter from the Military Department. It’s issued to you by the nation, rather than the Galactic Alliance," Jialin said with a smile.

"Makes no difference to me," you replied without accepting the letter. "Please relay to your superiors that I will not work for anyone, whether it’s the military or the state."

Jialin still maintained a smile as he said, "No, I think you misunderstood. This invitation letter comes from the National Academy of Sciences. The Singapore National Science Institute boasts the most elite team of scientists not only in the Milky Way Galaxy but across the entire universe. By working there for just over ten days, you can enjoy the social benefits granted to the highest-ranking regional administrators."

You paused in thought, then nodded and said, "Alright, I accept."
