The whole empire is bringing us together

Chapter 44 Ambush

When Quint woke up, the sky was already faintly bright.

He was leaning on Hyperion's body, resting on his shoulder, moved a little, and heard Hyperion's voice from the top of his head: "Are you awake?"

"Yeah." Quint rubbed his eyes and straightened up, saying that he would keep watch until midnight, and now it was dawn: "You didn't call me?"

"No, if you don't take a good rest after being exposed to the rain for a whole day, be careful not to get sick." Hyperion took out water and energy bars from his bag and gave them to him: "I have rough skin and thick flesh, and I can't sleep at all without sleep."

Quint took two sips of water and ate some energy bars. When Hyperion turned over his backpack, he could see clearly that there was not much food and water in the bag, so he had to save some: "Have you eaten?"

Alpha didn't rest all day and all night, and there was no sign of fatigue on his face: "I ate while you were asleep."

"Liar." Quint saw through his lie at a glance: "I have seen your bag, and there is nothing missing in it. Did you eat air?"

"Drinking the northwest wind." Hyperion didn't feel uncomfortable after being exposed by him: "I threw away the food on the way to lose weight, and I can go hunting at dawn and then pick some fruit to eat."

Quint stared at him for a few seconds, his lips were pursed into a straight line, he seemed a little unhappy: "Hyberian, I am not as weak as you imagined, now is the assessment period, we indeed confirmed the relationship yesterday, But first of all, I am a technical soldier on the same team as you, and a comrade in arms fighting side by side. The two of us are equal in every respect, so you don't have to wrong yourself to take care of me."

"Angry?" Hyperion was at a loss for a moment when he said it: "I don't mean anything else, I don't think you are weak, I just want to do my best to protect you. It's the first time I'm in love, I'm sure There are many things that are not done well, so don't be angry with me."

"I know, I'm not angry." Quint lowered his tone, softened his brows and eyes, and smiled at him: "So you eat a little too, and rest for two hours after eating, and I will watch over it when the rain stops. Set off."

"Okay." Hyperion obediently listened to him, took Quint's hand, ate the remaining half of his high-calorie energy bar, and licked the corner of his lips: "Then I slept for a while?"

"Go to sleep." Quint patted his thigh, motioned for Hyperion to lay his pillow on it, and covered him with a sleeping bag: "We may not be able to find such a suitable place to rest in the future, so hurry up and refresh yourself."

Hyperion lay down, pillowed on Quint's lap, watching him unwilling to close his eyes.Quint combed his short platinum-blond hair with one hand, covered his eyes with the other, and said softly, "One, two, three, sleep."

As his vision darkened, Hyperion closed his eyes, feeling Quint's fingertips massaging the top of his head, and the crackling sound of rain hitting leaves in his ears, and the faint smell of pheromones wrapped him up, making him For a moment, I forgot that I was in the perilous rainforest.

He almost fell into a deep sleep within a few breaths, and Quint's palm has been covering his eyes, blocking him from the brighter and brighter sky.

He stared down at Alpha's young and handsome face, just like his younger sister Liz, Hyperion's handsomeness was the type that was as stunning as the first glance no matter how you looked at it.In the last school year, he was once again voted the number one "Alpha Most Wanted to Marry" by the Omega Academy Forum. It's a bit embarrassing to say that, Quint even stayed up all night to vote for him.

Such an excellent person is actually his.Quint still couldn't believe it until now, he touched Hyperion's thin lips with the pad of his index finger, and then pressed it on his own, as if he had stolen a kiss from him.

After adjusting the sleeping bag to make sure it could cover the Highbury Security Department, Quint turned on the terminal to detect and analyze the location of the token they needed to find.

After two hours of non-stop busy work, the timer on the terminal suddenly jumped out, and Quint quickly turned it off before it rang for the first time. After waiting for another 5 minutes, he gently pushed Hyperion : "Hyperion?"

"Huh?" Hyperion was woken up by him. He was asleep in a daze, but soon remembered that he was still in the assessment, and instantly woke up.

He turned over while sleeping and became lying on his side, the tip of his nose was almost touching Quint's lower abdomen, and he could feel his abdomen rising and falling with the frequency of breathing.

Omega's abdomen contains glands, and Hyperion can naturally smell a stronger pheromone smell.He took a deep breath, locked the sweetness of lime into his lungs as much as possible, forced himself to sit up, reached out and rubbed Quint's strong thigh: "Is your leg numb?"

"It's okay." Being rubbed on his thigh, Quint only felt itchy, curled up his leg uncomfortably, and moved by himself: "The rain has stopped, let's go, I have already detected the vicinity, and the coordinates will be sent to you The terminal is on."

Hyperion looked at the map Quint sent him: "How many tokens do you have?"

"34, all of them were transferred to me when my former teammates quit." Quint showed him the interface showing the number of tokens on the terminal: "What about you?"

"21." Over the past few days, Hyperion has not deliberately searched for tokens. Rather than trying to figure out how to unlock the token box, he prefers to wait until the end of the assessment to find a few fat sheep for a friendly discussion. .

Kunt nodded. Hyperion's grades should be considered only mid-to-lower so far. He probably understood his plan: "If you want to block people, it's best to start in the last week. These days we can familiarize ourselves with the terrain and find more supplies. Make it easier to ambush later."

Hyperion untied the coat on the vines that served as a door curtain, wrung out the water and tied it around his waist. Quint walked out of the cave with a bow, and took a last look at this dark and inconspicuous cave.

It was just an insignificant corner of the vast world, but it was also an extremely important place in his memory.

When he turned his head, Hyperion was standing not far away looking at him, with a smile in his eyes, even though he knew that he already belonged to him, Quent would inevitably be moved by the look in his eyes.

Quint lowered his head and smiled, walked around the puddle of water on the muddy ground, followed quickly, and held the hand that Hyperion extended towards him.

The rain had stopped, but the water from the leaves was still dripping down continuously, which quickly wet the warm and dry clothes of the two of them.There was no food in Hyperion's bag, so they picked some edible fruit and caught an unlucky hare on the way to fill their stomachs.

The rabbit was baked by Hyperion. Quint sat on the big rock, wiped the oil from his mouth and said, "Let me try to make it next time."

"Okay." Hyperian gnawed off the last rabbit leg, gathered the bones into a pile and buried them: "Is it because I made them unpalatable?"

Kunt looked at him with his chin resting on his face, shook his head and said, "No, you can't just cook, I have some confidence in my skills, so let me do it next time."

Hyperion was so naive that he believed it until the evening when he ate the dinner baked by Quint. It was so delicious that his tongue almost didn't fall off—Quint obviously didn't say it was bad because he cared about his face.

So after the two caught any wild game, Quint would cook it by himself, but soon, they found a supply point, and finally Quint had his own backpack again, stuffing enough food for two people for three days. Energy bars still have a lot of essentials.

The young lovers were in the same team, and the assessment that should have been very difficult became very interesting. They worked together to crack the box and got another nine tokens.

On the seventh day they were ambushed.The ambushers were two teams united. One of the two mech soldiers entangled Hyperion, and the other rushed towards Quint. At that time, Quint was concentrating on cracking the token box in his hand, and waited until he heard Hyperion's shout to react. It was too late.

He was caught in the face, the smell of sweat from Alpha's body almost knocked him out, and he didn't know how his companions endured it.Quint yelled, and was about to kick him, but Alpha's knee pressed his thigh so hard that he couldn't move at all.

The Alpha forearm on his body squeezed his throat horizontally and touched the special black collar around his neck, and he didn't realize what it was.Quint couldn't breathe for a moment, he coughed in embarrassment, and when Alpha thought he would reach out in a hurry to break the arm that strangled him, the index finger and middle finger of his right hand suddenly stabbed Alpha's eyes!

"Let him go!" Hyperion was entangled by another Alpha and couldn't get away for a while, noticing the situation on Quint's side, his eyes immediately turned red. Alpha ignored Hyperion's roar, turned his head to avoid Quint's attack, grabbed Quint's wrist, and twisted it hard——

Quint snorted, subconsciously used the self-defense technique he had learned since he was in severe pain, raised his knee with all his strength, and slammed his knee into Alpha's crotch hard!

The Alpha was hit critically by an attack outside of his routine, and immediately roared, leaning down and sitting on Quint's body, the astonishing weight almost made Quent vomit blood.During the struggle, Quint's elbow was scratched, blood flowed out, with a strong smell of pheromone, and quickly drifted away.

Smelling the aroma of lime, Alpha sitting between his crotch was taken aback for a moment, the fist that was about to hit Quint's abdomen stopped in mid-air, and said in disbelief: "Omega?!"

But there was only a short moment left for him to be surprised, Hyperion, who violently knocked another Alpha to the ground, rushed over, roared, grabbed his clothes by the collar, swung him up, and slammed him hard. on the ground!

This blow was not unreasonable, mud and water splashed, and at the same time Alpha who had just been knocked over also rushed to strangle Hyperion's neck, which was punching his companion's mouth and nose.Two technical soldiers got out of the bushes, and while the three of them were inextricably fighting, they quickly dragged Quint, who was blushing from the suffocation and couldn't get up for a while, into the dense forest.
