Time flew by in a flash, and a month quickly passed. The day of departure for Earth’s ancient tomb finally arrived. Gu Bai packed up his things early and ran to the training grounds of the Imperial College to gather with the others.

This archaeological project was a grand affair. By the time he arrived, not only had the personnel participating in the archaeological work already gathered in the training ground but also the representatives of the king and various nobles as well as countless interstellar media.

When Gu Bai walked up to the queue of archaeology students, nobody greeted him. Everyone looked at him with looks of contempt and disgust.

Since this was a rare opportunity for students to follow along and study, all the students who were able to come were squeezed in based on their true abilities and achievements. However, the original host was able to join through connections, and he was not a student of the archaeology department, so naturally he would be rejected by everyone.

Also, the fact that he liked Han Lijun was known to nearly all the people of the Interstellar. Because there was no pursuer like him who went onto Admiral Han’s personal website to sickeningly express his love everyday and every interstellar year without rest.

Even though General Han had never paid attention to him, as the website only published some official information with no idol interaction whatsoever, he was very happy to guide himself and act alone. He occupied the headlines and comments of General Han’s website all year round. He was 100% an obsessed love-struck fool, a male obsessed love-struck fool!

In regards to the others’ gazes, Gu Bai ignored them all and was engrossed in his own mind, closing his eyes as to not waste a bit of time to cultivate. He didn’t stop until he sensed an incomparably familiar aura appear.

A hundred meters ahead, several men in military uniforms orderly walked, led by a handsome man about 25 or 26 years old.

Of course, in terms of the lifespan of Interstellar people, there was a big gap between their actual age and appearance. In the end, it was unknown how old the great Admiral Han actually was.

But that was not important. What was important was that this man was really handsome, the very masculine kind. His facial features were so handsome it was as if they had been carved by God’s knife. His entire body brimmed with captivating hormones, releasing a wild and overbearing type of handsomeness.

“Ah, ah, ah, it’s Admiral Han! The actual person is much more handsome than a projection in the StarNet! He’s so handsome!”

“Right, right, I’m going to die from his handsomeness. Why didn’t I try my best back then to get into the Imperial College so I could see the male god? Boo hoo, God, please let me die and come back again……”

The Interstellar network and the site were all heated. The serious archaeological departure ceremony turned into an idol meeting for a group of fans and a live broadcast program.

This was Admiral Han, the youngest Admiral in the empire. Not to mention his military power, that face was incomparable to those old generals with beards. Don’t be jealous; he was that good looking!

“Admiral Han, I love you!!!!”

Just as everyone was filled with excitement, an earth-shattering shout suddenly broke out at the site.

Yes, it was certainly earth-shattering. The shout was so loud that it stunned the lively crowd. Everyone quieted down and looked towards the source of the voice, then showed looks of speechlessness and utter contempt. Obviously, everyone knew of the original host, this love-struck fool.

Han Lijin also reflexively looked at the former. His gaze stilled and his breathing quickened.

Among the queue of students, a boy of about 17 or 18 years old stood at the end.

His fair skin resembled flawless jade, giving off a radiant luster, and his black eyes were brighter than the stars in the night. This youth had an utterly beautiful appearance, even better than those of the pretty idols on the StarNet.

At this moment, he was looking at him with a gaze full of passionate love. His courage had a soul-stirring charm.

Han Lijun felt like his heart was being ruthlessly hit. He wanted to pass by the youth, but he had to restrain the urge to go over and embrace that person.

Compared to his thoughts, Gu Bai’s actions were faster. He rushed directly out of the crowd and suddenly threw himself on his man’s body, continuing to talk excitedly.

“Admiral Han, I love you! I love you! I love you!!!”

Gu Bai was in a very excited mood. However, he couldn’t be blamed for showing this kind of obsessive and foolish love. The same old saying goes: at the initial period right after he entered the task, he would be influenced by the original host’s personality.

It just so happened that this time the original host was an extremely smitten fool. Adding in the hint of joy that emerged within his own heart, this mood broke out uncontrollably like flooding water from the Yellow River……

Although his actions were to throw himself onto his man, it was more accurate to say that he was hanging onto him. Due to his height, his feet could not touch the ground while wrapping his arms around Han Lujin’s neck. For the sake of convenience, he simply wrapped his legs nimbly around the other’s waist.

This kind of embrace made Gu Bai rather resemble a koala clinging tightly on Han Lijun’s body, and he surprisingly didn’t accidentally touch an important place of the other person.

As a result, the serious Admiral Han’s body suddenly stiffened in place, and then in a flash the entire site and the StarNet exploded.

“My god, who is he, who is he?! He actually pounced on Admiral Han’s body! Quick, someone tell me this isn’t real! Surely my eyes are playing tricks on me!”

“No, no, no, it’s real. Cries. He didn’t just pounce; he’s hanging onto the body of my male god! Cryy, I wish I could replace him! Let me worship my male god too!”

“I got it, he’s that Qiao Qi! All year round, he has occupied the comment section on Admiral’s homepage. He’s that big obsessive love-struck fool who sends sickening confessions everyday! Aaahhh, how dare he hold onto my male god! Who’s going to come out to pull him off and hack him to death?!”

“Yes, drag this silly idiot off and hack him to death +1!”

“Drag him out and hack him to death +2!”

“Drag him out and hack him to death +10086 for an interstellar year!”

Obviously, the majority of the interstellar netizens watching today’s departure ceremony on the StarNet were fans of the young and promising Admiral Han. Compared to the serious archaeological work, everyone cared more about the male god. The male god who was strict and untouchable belonged to everyone, so how could he be defiled by such an infatuated maniac!

The king also reacted and showed his displeasure. He had been too busy with other matters to know that the original host was a love-struck and obsessive fool.

However, in the midst of such a big occasion, Gu Bai went as far as to appear in front of everybody and scream, suppressing the entire audience. Furthermore, the love-struck fool even threw himself onto Admiral Han. They were currently being broadcasted live across the entire Interstellar. They had just lost face to all of the Interstellar.

The dean of the Imperial College couldn’t help but cover his face. He hurriedly made the soldiers deal with the situation. If he hadn’t owed the Qiao family a favor, he absolutely would have never permitted bringing a love-struck fool who specialized in chasing after men into the solemn archeological team!

The completely riled-up crowd had not yet noticed nor questioned how he, as a mere infatuated fool, managed to pounce and cross over the layers and layers of defense.

Even the brilliant military god Admiral Han hadn’t made the connection. However, at the moment, his mind had already lost the capability to think. While Gu Bai was hanging onto his body, he went rigid for a couple seconds and then involuntarily reached out his hand to hold up the young man’s ass.

Then he also involuntarily squeezed. A touch rich in softness and elasticity The feeling was truly wonderful. All of his attention was attracted to this feeling.

So much that when the soldiers came up to block him, for the first time ever, his serious face revealed a trace of a smile, and he defended Gu Bai, saying:

“He’s just overly excited. The soldiers of the Empire are only meant to confront the enemy. The people of the Empire should receive gentle and kind treatment.”

When those words fell, everyone present and the people on the StarNet all at once went quiet, then once again went up in flames.

Since this person never appeared in public, everyone in the Empire thought that Admiral Han was an unfeeling, unyielding, and unshakeable man, yet at this moment, it seemed that Admiral Han was actually this gentle!

The soldiers were also shocked by the change of expression on the always-serious Admiral Han. Was what they were seeing an illusion? Normally, the admiral wouldn’t allow strangers to get close to him. Where did their cold-blooded, merciless admiral go……

No matter how agitated everyone was, it was incapable of affecting Gu Bai’s mood at the moment. He was still excited, so excited that he couldn’t restrain himself.

This familiar aura was indeed his man’s. Did he come here to complete a mission? He was obviously here for a vacation! He wasn’t sure if this kind of task had been deliberately chosen by his man, that animal!

“Admiral Han, do you know how much I like you? I’m sure you don’t know, but I can tell you how much afterwards. My little heart is madly beating, ba-dum da-dum, for you right now. Could you please let me sit in the same airship as you during this journey? Otherwise, I’m definitely going to be tormented to death by my heart beating so much. Please……”

Though their itinerary was the same this time, the students who were following the study did not have the qualifications to follow the admiral and sit in the same airship as him. Gu Bai didn’t want to be separated from his man at all. Since he saw him, he would use his abilities to cling onto his man firmly.

With wet eyes, Gu Bai strove hard to seep out two drops of crystal clear tears, which slipped down his cheeks and hung on his chin. The request was so pitiful that it was hard to refuse.

Suddenly, the StarNet exploded once again.

“Aahh, in spite of everything, that infatuated fool Qiao Qi is taking advantage of the Admiral’s kindness, reaching out for a yard after taking an inch. Don’t be under the impression that the admiral is easy-going and approachable. He even went as far as to voice those sickening words of love written online in public! Does he have no shame?!!”

“That’s right! The important thing is that he’s still hanging onto my male god’s body! Is my male god’s chest so firm, so hot that you. Are. Drowning. In. Pleasure? Rooaarr! Come on, somebody pull him down! Give me back my male god!”

“Hearing upstairs roaring like a hot-blooded beast, but…… I very much approve of the last sentence one hundred percent. Let’s get this infatuated idiot out of here and give me back my male god!”

All kinds of roars were flooding the StarNet, and the Interstellar people were very worked up.

But fortunately, these people were only on the StarNet. The people at the scene were as stirred up as everyone else, but given the current situation, no one dared to act like Gu Bai.

After all, this was a live broadcast within the Interstellar. His Majesty was there too! Such a serious imperial-like departure ceremony turned into a little fan’s confession convention! What was going on?!

The tens of thousands of people at the scene and the billions of eyes on the StarNet all stared at the two of them. Gu Bai was completely unaware of them and continued to look at his man with a small begging expression. His captivating red lips which were protruding into an aggrieved pout gave Admiral Han the illusion of requesting a kiss.

The temptation was so overwhelming that Admiral Han, a ruthless and handsome tyrant, almost couldn’t restrain himself from bending down and kissing him. The man exhausted his self-control to put Gu Bai down and act properly.

“I’m very sorry. According to the regulations, you can’t board the military airship. The departure ceremony is about to start. Go back to your group first.”

After these words came out, everyone finally laughed. This was a normal reaction.

But the next moment, everyone was dumbfounded again. They saw admiral da ren actually rubbing the young man’s head gently with a pampering smile.

“However, the people of the Empire should be treated with tolerance. This admiral will absolutely not let such an adorable person be tormented to death by a wildly beating heart. Baby, tell me, what’s your name? I’ll find you later……”

Everyone: “……”

Where was their strong and cool admiral da ren?!


Then Admiral Han goes to the MC and papapapa. The end. zzzz *snores*

Well that’s all for me for HOMM! It was fun banding together with fellow CG staff, all fueled by spite. It was because of this project that I became a translator. I guess my skills were decent enough?? Lmaooo. Huge thanks to all those people in CG who gave me translation help and Mina, dandan, and THISBRO for the TLC for HOMM.
