The Indispensable Person
by M1zushiedited by Shay
After listening to the doctor, he took away the inhibitor for use. After leaving the private hospital of the Duke’s palace, Gu Huan fell in a little trance.
It turned out that his biggest challenge for survival was not to fight wits and courage with the Crown Prince and Imperial Uncle.
But himself.
He was not an alpha but an omega, and he had a really terrible feeling
Because the original owner’s memory was incomplete, when he read the novel, there was no such detailed reason for the original owner’s betrayal in the novel. He was very confused about why the general would betray the crown prince and turn to the Imperial Uncle. He thought it was the author’s forced setting.
After all, it is no coincidence that the original owner would become friends with the prince. The former owner was an orphan adopted by the current marshal of the empire, and the grandson of that marshal was the current crown prince. Because of the relationship with the old marshal, he and prince Chu Xinglin became friends.
He never understood how the original owner, who was both a child adopted by the old marshal and a friend of the crown prince, could be reluctant enough to go to the Imperial Uncle Huang and take the detour of Chu Fengyuan.
Now Gu Huan finally understood.
After the differentiation of the secondary sexual characteristics, the ambitious original owner hated his secondary sexual characteristic very much and did not want to be marked. An omega that was not completely marked was like a set time bomb in an army full of alphas. If he exposed that he was an omega, he could not continue to work in the army.
Therefore, in order to have the right to work in front of him, he could only risk following behind those who can help him illegally.
The Imperial Uncle is also a talented person. He could perform that kind of operation for the original owner.
After seeing the doctor, he went back to find the Duke again and fully expressed his intention to resign to him. Although the other party was very sorry, he unexpectedly agreed to his request to leave.
Whether it was really so easy to talk about or not, it seemed that the Duke had no intention of killing him for the time being, which was enough. Gu Huan asked in a low voice as he lowered his eyelashes slightly,
“Xiao Ling, has my resignation letter been sent to the military headquarters?”
“Successfully sent.”
Very good.
Whether he was an omega or not, it is always right to escape the story first.
After the letter of resignation.
Gu Huan was getting busier and busier. He simply stopped staying in the hotel and moved directly into the office of Jialin Military Region to continue to improve the planning of the army. He not only designed a complete training plan for the soldiers, he watched them practice their formation, and also let the captain lead the team in practice.
That level of seriousness made the higher officers in the army aware of some anomalies.
Finally, one afternoon.
Adjutants and first lieutenants rushed to Gu Huan’s office.
[Jialin Military Region]
The elevator in the central sky kept working. Soldiers in black uniforms came and went with cold faces. The debauchery of the banquet was nowhere to be seen and instead there was a sense of determination and solemnity.
On the floor above the large and small training rooms was the office where the most senior general of the legion was located. The external wall of the office was like a golden hollowed out bird’s nest. The metal used to build the bird’s nest was very special. It could flow. If it was attacked, its ductility could definitely surprise people, and it can be hardened instantly, impregnable and invulnerable.
A few minutes before the AI informed him that there was someone that wanted to see him, Gu Huan was still lying on the table and taking a nap. Now, he was sitting upright. His inorganic golden eyes were still a little sleepy, and seemed a little hazy, but were still surrounded by a cold temperament.
“Are you here for inspection?”
Hearing the general’s question, Yue Yang, who had rushed in one go, fell forward suddenly. Like a big balloon, he was punctured and deflated.
“This… this.”
Gu Huan saw that he did not answer and swept the two people standing behind him.
The character of Yue Yang was impetuous and straightforward. If he had an idea, he couldn’t sit still. But why did Mo Xiao, the always cold captain, and Keppel, the famous captain, come here? Gu Huan had a slight headache.
Mo Xiao was a female alpha with flaming red hair. Her personality and her hair color were just two extremes. She was very quiet. Seeing Gu Huan looking over, she made a military salute with no expression on her face and stood in a standard posture.
“General.”
“It’s OK to leave that matter to the Military Discipline Office. It’s just an inspection. You don’t have to be personally responsible for it. We didn’t come here today for this matter.”
Gu Huan pinched his eyebrows. Knowing that if Mo Xiao was coming, it would be hard to muddle through.
Sure enough, Mo Xiao soon cut into the topic.
“We just want to know how bad your situation is.”
“Everyone is saying that you are going to step down.”
“……”
Gu Huan’s eyebrows and eyes moved slightly.
The situation is bad to the point that an alpha will die soon. Can you say that?
Gu Huan’s silence made the other three acquiesce to their guess. Keppel closed his lips and blushed. He also stepped out and saluted.
“I’m very sorry, but I must report that I had been biased against you before.”
“I always thought that you were an airborne-related household, and we were just actors who existed to let you make military achievements. We thought that the command had no value of existence and it just went wherever it could make meritorious service.”
“……”
In fact, you are definitely not prejudiced.
“Before, I didn’t understand the significance of our existence. To attack a starfleet, artillery is more useful than mecha soldiers.” Keppel said excitedly, “But now I think our existence is indispensable.”
“If the army has to face the Zerg in the worm tide period, our small formation of mecha can better avoid the reaction of the Zerg than large warships, and is more flexible against the Zerg. It must be the best configuration to deal with that situation. The significance of our assault army is to fight against the Zerg.”
The Zerg, heard from Keppel’s mouth, were the main enemies of this interstellar humanity.
In the solar system where the Imperial Alliance is located, there was once only one intelligent race, the human beings. Later, for some reason, a large number of Zerg appeared suddenly. They plundered human energy, gradually developed and grew, and constantly threatened human security.
According to the research of human experts on the growth habits of the Zerg, the Zerg period can be divided into two time periods: the incubation period and the worm tide period. The Zergs in the incubation period are alone. Because they eat a lot of energy stones, they move slowly, and are easily killed by humans. The Zergs in the worm tide period are strong, appear in groups, and act quickly. Every time they appear, they will cause heavy casualties to humans. Every time the worm tide period comes, the planet’s protection mechanism will send an early warning to seek refuge and open the protective cover, resisting the Zergs from entering the planets inhabited by humans.
However, this strategy was not safe. In the original text, the Imperial Uncle used scientific and technological means to trigger an artificial worm tide in order to usurp the throne. The Star Empire Alliance had been comfortable for many years because of the existence of the protective shield. That sudden worm tide caught the Empire by surprise. If it was not for the supreme god talent of fighting of the main character’s mecha and the plot-armor aura, the Empire would have ended long ago.
If Gu Huan had not read the novel and foreseen the future danger, he wouldn’t have written a plan for rectification at this time.
When Keppel had said, the two people beside him were also nodding in agreement.
“Our army cannot do without you.”
“Colonel Keppel.” Gu Huan’s eyes were filled with cold light. “You should understand that an army that cannot run without a certain person is doomed to not be a good army.”
Keppel clenched his fingers.
The other two were silent.
Gu Huan was very pleased that they wanted him to stay. At least his efforts during this time were not wasted. But Gu Huan felt that they did not need to worry so much, because he had just submitted to the military headquarters the most perfect plan he could think of. If they really liked this plan, he believed that whoever took the plan could continue to complete his idea.
Gu Huan felt that it didn’t matter whether he existed or not, but he forgot that no matter how he removed the necessity of his existence from this plan, he was the one who wrote the plan.
[Capital Star Military Headquarters]
“Does such an excellent battle plan just happen to coincide with your idea?”
When the marshal was reading the plan, Chu Xinglin’s face was expressionless and silent. The sharp edges and corners of his outline were full of a male strength and sharpness, with a hint of unruliness. His blue eyes turned slightly, and he opened his lips in response.
“Yes.”
“He told me that he wanted to resign as the head of the regiment. I don’t know whether to approve it for him.” Seeing him nod, Old Marshal Gu Zehai shook his head again.
Of course, he didn’t want Gu Huan to leave. In his eyes, Gu Huan was a new star just showing its light. It was time to shine. It’s a pity to leave now. Although he wasn’t his grandson, he had been the one who picked up Gu Huan. Gu Huan had always called him a teacher, and he had always regarded him as his successor.
Chu Xinglin, who was beside him, knew that Grandpa was waiting for his opinion, so he suggested,
“I heard that he had a small-scale spiritual uprising in his residence. With his character of caring about meritorious deeds, he would not joke about his achievements. He really needs to take a rest.”
He not only heard about it, but also made a field trip. But Chu Xinglin suddenly didn’t want to tell the old marshal about this.
The old marshal shook his head and sighed.
“You know him the best, Xinglin.”
Chu Xinglin was silent about this. After a while, he said,
“If you don’t want Gu Huan to leave, you can let him have a rest for a while. Maybe if his mental strength improves, he will change his mind.”
The old marshal’s eyes brightened.
That’s a good idea. Who said that if he has mental problems, he will have to leave his post? He can take a break and come back.
After clearing up the knotty things, the old marshal grabbed Chu Xinglin and asked him about his health. Before leaving, Chu Xinglin turned his head, as if he had suddenly remembered something.
“Grandpa, I haven’t told anyone about the news that I came back alive this time. I hope you can hide it for me?”
“Of course.”
After getting a positive answer again, Chu Xinglin nodded slightly, turned and left the office of the old marshal, as if thinking about something. He untied the bandage on his arm in small circles until the bandage was peeled off, revealing the arm with smooth curves, and tried to shake it. He lightly turned his head and gave instructions with his deep voice to the Prince’s Special Guard around him.
“I want to know all the details of General Gu Huan’s actions after monitoring him.”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
