- Chapter 104 - Removing and Retattooing is Also a Virtue
Chi Yueshan felt like she might forcibly enter her heat cycle, even though it wasn’t due yet.
It was so painful. Which Omega with a partner has to take suppressants and still do it?
Is that even reasonable?
She was already this excited without being marked or bonded, how terrifying would true bonding be?
Am I going to lose my… you know what…?!
Chi Yueshan looked like she’d been fished out of water, drowsy even while showering.
The young lady wasn’t that lazy in this aspect; she just found it troublesome, suggesting they do it directly in the water next time to save the hassle.
Can this even be saved?!
Chi Yueshan was still a little dazed the next morning when Butler Li Rong asked which car she wanted to take. She didn’t react for a while.
She slept until noon, and Xi Zhoumeng, who had things to do the next day, showed no signs of waking up.
It gave Chi Yueshan the feeling that their secondary genders were reversed.
How can someone be so passionate during intimacy and then completely exhausted afterwards?
Chi Yueshan: “Then I’ll go first.”
After washing her face, changing clothes, eating, and packing her bag, she went back to the bedroom to take one last look.
Her girlfriend, wearing a camisole, slept soundly, with fiery red marks on her white neck.
Chi Yueshan fled in embarrassment, feeling a guilty conscience for seemingly getting something for free.
The Xi family treated Chi Yueshan like family. She was even provided with a private car.
Chi Yueshan had never ridden in a hovercar before, and today’s trip involved secretly leaving Xi Zhoumeng behind, so she wanted to be discreet.
“No need, I’ll take the public hovercar.”
Chi Yueshan refused Li Rong but still let him see her to the station.
The weather was cold, even though the Xi family owned a mountain, the streets below were still bustling, not giving off a secluded vibe at all.
As soon as Li Rong left, Chi Yueshan quickly opened her holocom and checked her tattoo appointment.
Oh no, I’m about to miss my appointment.
I shouldn’t have agreed to Xi Zhoumeng’s “try,” that “try” went too far.
So annoying, otherwise, I should be comfortably on my pre-planned route to the tattoo parlor.
Chi Yueshan was still searching for directions when Wen Xinghuo sent a message, “There’s a shop hiring here in the mechanical city, do you want to check it out?”
It was unclear how many part-time jobs Wen Xinghuo had a day. Her holocom feed looked like a general handyman’s, capable of doing anything.
Last time, she rescued some rich person’s cat that had climbed a power tower, even making the Starnet trending list.
The comments were mostly from Alpha girls praising her, saying she was great, asking if she offered private coaching subscriptions.
I wonder how much that pays.
Chi Yueshan felt she couldn’t climb that high, not to mention Wen Xinghuo was scratched by the cat several times.
Jobs in the mechanical city require skills, right?
Chi Yueshan replied, “Okay.”
[I’m going to the tattoo parlor now, can you wait for me, Senior?]
[Wen Xinghuo: Have you arrived at the shop?]
[Chi Yueshan: [Embarrassed] I just left and am taking a car.]
[Wen Xinghuo: Xi Zhoumeng let you take a car by yourself?]
Even without an emoji, Chi Yueshan felt Wen Xinghuo was scolding Xi Zhoumeng.
[Chi Yueshan: No, I didn’t want her to know.]
[Wen Xinghuo: I thought she asked you to get it removed.]
[Chi Yueshan: …]
She still didn’t tell her that Xi Zhoumeng not only didn’t ask but also found it exciting.
[Chi Yueshan: Navigation says it’s pretty fast, but getting a tattoo removed takes at least an hour, Senior, aren’t you busy?]
[Wen Xinghuo: Not busy today.]
[Chi Yueshan: Then I’ll find you later.]
The clients Chi Yueshan usually worked for at the academy were mostly those Zhou Fengqin had left her.
Just like when she had snuck into the Upper World and traded in the mechanical city, her clients were all Zhou Fengqin’s old clients.
Master always gave Chi Yueshan an unfathomable feeling, as if she was hiding many secrets.
Chi Yueshan looked at her notes. After changing holocoms, the original data had been transferred.
Zhou Fengqin’s notes had been backed up several times by Chi Yueshan.
There were many characters Chi Yueshan didn’t understand. Zhou Fengqin hadn’t explained them before, and Chi Yueshan hadn’t cared.
After Zhou Fengqin died, she regretted not asking more questions.
Chi Yueshan only learned about her serious illness when she was near death.
Incurable, she had been sentenced to death long ago.
She wondered why she chose to settle in the Lower World, why she possessed such advanced technology yet was willing to run an ordinary mechanical shop.
Even though Chi Yueshan was very talented, she still couldn’t understand some of the images and text Zhou Fengqin left behind.
She had very few opportunities to see real mechas. The mismatch between theory and practice made her realize she still had a long way to go.
With Xi Zhoumeng absent, her focus was much higher, the bookmark was on the page she had seen before.
The scanned page restored the original texture of the paper, including the coffee stains.
Zhou Fengqin’s handwriting was stern, completely inconsistent with her amiable Beta appearance.
No matter how many times Chi Yueshan looked at it, she marveled at the exquisite mecha designs on these blueprints.
Some might be copied from elsewhere, some were her designs, and some were modifications.
She also annotated the ratio of enhanced parts and conduit materials.
Chi Yueshan could recite these annotations.
There was also a mention of magnetar meteorites. She seemed to disapprove of the War God mecha’s perfection, instead advocating for soul binding to enhance the mecha, such as the Moon-Swallowing mecha from the same era as the War God mecha, considering this idea very advanced.
Chi Yueshan had seen these pages since she was a child, and Zhou Fengqin didn’t mind her looking at them.
She treated Chi Yueshan differently from the current students and teachers, and unlike a master and apprentice. She often left Chi Yueshan to her own devices.
She let Chi Yueshan climb and disassemble things, only intervening when Chi Yueshan couldn’t reassemble them.
Chi Yueshan would sit beside her and watch her restore them.
Chi Yueshan had asked Zhou Fengqin why the Moon-Swallowing mecha used magnetar meteorites.
Zhou Fengqin shook her head, picking up the Moon-Swallowing mecha design that Chi Yueshan had copied.
“This is an antique, the year of manufacture is untraceable. It should be a first-generation mecha, from the year the Insect Race first appeared.”
“During the experimental phase, the source of the magnetar meteorites is unknown. It’s such a clever design, using magnetar meteorites for the core energy would lower the probability of a match with the owner.”
Zhou Fengqin shrugged, “Besides, legend says that only those with ZR series soul chains can activate magnetar meteorites.”
She also felt helpless, “So, after the first owner died, the mecha wasn’t bound again.”
The first owner of the Moon-Swallowing mecha mentioned in history was the Empire’s first combat commander. Cooperating with the War God mecha’s owner, they ended the endless war brought by the Insect Race, but they didn’t eradicate them.
The Insect Race’s reproductive ability was too strong, it was too difficult to completely eliminate them. Later, it developed into regular Insect Race invasions and sporadic attacks from wormholes.
Chi Yueshan: “Then the War God mecha doesn’t use magnetar meteorites?”
Zhou Fengqin: “It has the same requirements as ordinary mechas, but S+ spiritual power is the threshold.”
Whether you can be chosen by this type of top-tier mecha is fate.
Chi Yueshan said “oh” at that time, pointing at the Moon-Swallowing mecha, “But it’s really beautiful.”
Most mechas have gold, silver, gray, and black paint, but this silver mecha has special patterns.
Zhou Fengqin neither confirmed nor denied it, “It’s said that the blueprints were made by that commander for the people of the U star system, so it’s more exaggerated. But unfortunately, the U star system no longer exists.”
Her brows furrowed, as if sadness was clinging to her, then she sighed——
“But that’s the battlefield, who cares how beautiful your mecha is?”
Chi Yueshan: “That’s right, ordinary soldiers wouldn’t like this flashy style, right?”
Zhou Fengqin: “I don’t know, anyway, no one has been able to bind with it for so many years, and the current Xi family commander hasn’t been able to activate her ancestor’s mecha, it’s a pity.”
The Beta, wearing glasses, sighed. Her holocom stored many mecha models, and Chi Yueshan could recite every part.
“Are they just gonna leave it like that?”
Chi Yueshan looked at it again, feeling a little pity,”Why not try with a few more people?”
Zhou Fengqin pushed her glasses, “Of course, some people have tried, even without complete binding, they can operate it, but it didn’t reach the level of going to the battlefield.”
“And its spiritual power requirement is even higher than the War God mecha.”
Chi Yueshan: “S+ is the highest level, can it be even higher?”
Zhou Fengqin’s eyes were gentle. The mechanical city in the Lower World was lit up all year round. The shop had a cramped living room, and Chi Yueshan slept in a small room the size of a bed.
She shared a desk with Zhou Fengqin.
When she wasn’t busy, Chi Yueshan would squeeze next to Zhou Fengqin to look at 3D models, her eyes shining with longing.
Zhou Fengqin sighed, “There will be, right? Maybe someone’s spiritual power is very high, it’s just that the highest level of spiritual power is only S+, for now.”
After saying this, she touched Chi Yueshan’s head, “Don’t look anymore, go to sleep.”
Chi Yueshan: “Then besides high spiritual power, does this mecha have other flaws?”
There were no flowers in the Lower World, but there were plenty of toys. Many were from the Upper World, this mecha was so beautiful it looked like a work of art.
Making the others look dull in comparison.
At that time, Chi Yueshan thought that the person who could control this mecha must be a very beautiful officer.
Zhou Fengqin: “Here…”
She pointed to the center of the silver rose, “Because of the emphasis on appearance and craftsmanship, there’s a flaw.”
Chi Yueshan looked for a long time before she saw it, it was just a little thin.
“It’s nothing, as long as the Alpha is strong enough, this flaw won’t be fatal.”
Zhou Fengqin smiled, “Not necessarily, the Insect Race is everywhere.”
When she mentioned the Insect Race, her eyes would be filled with deep sorrow. Chi Yueshan couldn’t ask anything, she could only change the subject, “Then can it be repaired?”
Zhou Fengqin: “It needs the same material and a highly skilled mecha engineer.”
Chi Yueshan: “Then Master? You’re so amazing.”
Zhou Fengqin shook her head, “The material can’t be found, the internal meteorite requires the power of the wealthy…”
She paused, “Master hasn’t seen this mecha either, I can’t guarantee it can be repaired, the plan in the notes is just my speculation.”
Chi Yueshan’s eyes were shining, “When can I become as amazing as Master?”
She sat cross-legged, the Lower World in summer was very hot, the living room was piled with things, like an animal’s nest.
The ceiling fan blades buzzed loudly due to high-speed rotation. Chi Yueshan’s face was pinched by Zhou Fengqin, “Yueshan is so talented, you’ll definitely be amazing before you reach Master’s age.”
The girl puffed her cheeks, “But I haven’t seen a complete mecha yet!”
Zhou Fengqin: “What I taught you doesn’t require seeing the real thing.”
Chi Yueshan shook her head, but Zhou Fengqin sent her away.
That year, Master’s ID card said she was thirty-seven, but half of her hair was already white.
The wrinkles when she smiled were deep, as if she had been ravaged by fate.
But when Chi Yueshan recalled Zhou Fengqin now, she thought of her composure at the moment of her death.
She only mentioned, “I’m very satisfied to die like this.”
Chi Yueshan reviewed her notes all the way to the tattoo parlor.
The tattoo artist was about twenty-five or six years old, a Beta with her hair tied up.
She confirmed Chi Yueshan’s tattoo again.
The tattoo parlor owner, who had worked her way up from an apprentice, was silent for a long time before asking the student Omega, who was still muttering about theories,
“Little sister, are you heartbroken?”
Chi Yueshan exclaimed, “No.”
She was wearing a lot of clothes when she went out, now she only had her undershirt left.
The female Beta owner had seen a lot, but she didn’t expect Chi Yueshan to get a tattoo there.
She said “oh,” “Most people here get tattoos because of relationships, they come back to get them removed after breaking up. That spot is very painful.”
Chi Yueshan: “I’m not in a relationship, it’s my idol’s name.”
She really regretted it, thinking her self-moved appearance back then was so funny.
Boss: “Idol? I don’t think I’ve heard of this name, which group? Or is she in a TV drama?”
Chi Yueshan: “A small idol, you definitely haven’t heard of her.”
The boss said “oh” and started preparing, she couldn’t help but chat, “Don’t you like her anymore? Or did you fall for someone else, are you getting the old one removed and getting a new one tattooed?”
Chi Yueshan: “No…”
She didn’t want to get another tattoo, it would be so embarrassing.
Sigh, what if Xi Zhoumeng gets jealous when she sees it?
That person would definitely say things like, “You’re clearly biased.”
Should I get a tattoo?
What should I get?
She suddenly remembered Xi Zhoumeng’s serious expression last night as her fingers traced her leg, one horizontal line, one vertical line, then another horizontal line.
Damn it, how can someone remember this kind of thing, and try to write it on my leg?
Do you think I’m here to repay a debt?
She even said, “If I were a cat, I’d press my paw.”
That kind of cat would be hard to raise.
Wait.
Chi Yueshan almost sat up, “Let’s get another one.”
The boss exclaimed, “You’re so fickle, are you changing your mind again?”
Chi Yueshan: “You don’t understand, this time it’s for my girlfriend!”
