Chapter 109 The Truth

Mingyue was overwhelmed with joy at this moment, and she finally understood what Wu Mingyue meant when she said that when the person you like is in front of you, all the formalities don't matter.

She nodded gratefully in agreement. Marshal Ye put the necklace on her and then gave her a gentle hug.

"Wait a minute!" Mingyue struggled out of Ye Yuan's embrace. "You don't think that because I came to save you, you're so moved that you've decided to repay me with your body, do you? If that's the case, and you only feel gratitude towards me, there's no need for you to sacrifice yourself. As long as they are soldiers of the Empire, we will do our best to rescue them."

What Mingyue wanted was love, not this kind of emotional sentiment.

Ye Yuan flicked her on the head. "Silly girl, do you think I'm only touched? I prepared this necklace a long time ago. Didn't you notice that its design is a bit special?"

"What's so special about it, or is it particularly round?" Mingyue held up her necklace and looked at it.

"You, this is a full moon, okay? I designed it especially for you. The base is shaped like a leaf, and the full moon-shaped gemstone is the Heart of Moonstone. I designed this necklace myself and forged it myself! I originally planned to wait until after we won this battle to go back and confess my feelings to you!"

This was something Mingyue hadn't expected. She happily took her necklace and looked at it again and again.

"Wait, didn't you dislike me before?" He used to ignore her messages.

"Really? I never said that." Marshal Ye pulled Mingyue's hand and sat her down.

"Of course I did. When I messaged you before, your replies were all very formal."

"Before, I never thought about this; I just thought of you as a princess. Later, whenever you got something nice, you always remembered to send me a share, and you cared about me every day. Gradually, I started to think you were quite nice too. Until last time, when I went back, we danced and chatted, and I realized you were a very special person. I couldn't help but want to know about you, and that's when I realized I had fallen for you. That's why I prepared a gift, wanting to go back and get to know you better after the war. I just didn't expect you to risk your life to come to the rear to find me. At that moment, I was anxious, angry, and also a little sweet. Mingyue, thank you!" Ye Yuan held her hand, looked directly into her eyes, and dissected his heart.

Mingyue felt as sweet as if she had eaten honey as she listened to his words. It turned out that he remembered everything she had done.

She turned her head away shyly and said softly, "It's not as good as you say."

Ye Yuan smiled, "You're just that good in my heart!"

He reached out and pulled Mingyue into his arms, feeling her warmth.

The two embraced quietly, enjoying this moment of tranquility.

At this moment, Mingyue's personal terminal suddenly emitted an urgent sound.

She immediately released Ye Yuan and opened the message, "Finally found it!"

"what?"

"Traitor! Come with me, you have the right to know the truth!"

Mingyue led him all the way to Drake's command post, and when they opened the door, Drake was working.

“Your Highness!” Drake stood up.

"Marshal Ye, when did you get back!" Drake was somewhat shocked. Didn't Lieutenant Li and the others fail to find him a few days ago?

"It was Princess Mingyue's team that found us!" Marshal Ye didn't say, but Princess Mingyue also went there.

"Great! Marshal Ye, it's wonderful that you're back safe and sound!" Drake immediately exclaimed with delight.

"Do you really think this is a good idea?" Mingyue gave a wink, and her squad immediately stepped forward and detained Drake.

"Your Highness, what are you doing!" Drake struggled angrily.

Ye Yuan was also somewhat surprised, but he believed that Mingyue had her reasons for doing so.

"Should I call you Marshal Drake, or Zerg?"

Upon hearing the word "Zerg," Marshal Ye was somewhat shocked, and Drake stopped struggling.

"You know it all?"

“That’s right! Marshal Drake, do you know where you went wrong? You knew perfectly well that your mental power had been affected by the Zerg, but instead of reporting it to the military, you allowed the Zerg to devour your mental power in order to keep your position as marshal. Can you even tell whether you are an Imperial citizen or a Zerg?” Mingyue shouted.

Hearing Mingyue's words, Ye Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. He had thought that Marshal Drake was a Zerg in disguise. It turned out that his mental power had been affected. The mental power of warriors who were on the battlefield all year round was easily corrupted by the Zerg. However, everyone would use a potion to cleanse themselves after each battle. Therefore, Marshal Ye Yuan did not expect that Drake was corrupted.

Princess Mingyue was extremely nervous when she encountered Drake. After all, she had asked Lin Liuyi about the situation, and Lin Liuyi told her two possibilities: one was that Drake was actually a Zerg, and the other was that Drake's soul was a Zerg. She couldn't accept either of these possibilities.

If Drake really was a Zerg incarnate or his soul was Zerg, then Mingyue couldn't imagine how much the Empire had been infiltrated by the Zerg. Fortunately, after their meticulous investigation, they found that Drake's mental energy had only been corrupted.

Drake had stopped struggling and collapsed to the ground. "I didn't want to either. It told me it could make me a marshal, make me someone everyone would like. Once I became a marshal, once everyone liked me, I would purify it!"

"Now that you're a marshal, countless people admire you, but what have you done? You revealed Marshal Ye's plan to the Zerg! Drake, your mind has been taken over by the Zerg!"

"I didn't want to, I couldn't control myself! Marshal Ye killed too many Zerg. Every time I see him, I can't control myself. Yes, he shouldn't exist, he deserves to die!" Drake's aura began to surge violently.

"Send him to the medical ward immediately, and bring all the documents to the military court at once!" Mingyue made a decisive decision.

"Yes!"

"So it was him! But was it really the Zerg that influenced him?" Marshal Ye thought of his brothers who shouldn't have died, and his sympathy for Drake instantly turned into suspicion.

"That's probably true, but we can't rule out the possibility that he was jealous of you, which is why he left his mental energy behind under the influence of the Zerg."

Mingyue had some doubts before, but she had someone carefully study Drake's mental power and found that it was indeed corrupted. Some things may not have been done by his true intentions, but the consequences had already been dealt with, and he had to bear them.

"I never expected the Zerg to hate me so much!" Ye Zi mocked himself.

Mingyue rolled her eyes at him. "Brother, don't you even know how many Zerg you've killed over the years? Isn't it normal for them to hate you?"

"Drake will be court-martialed, and we still need you on this battlefield!"

Mingyue sighed. They had just gotten together, and now they were going to be in a long-distance relationship. She was not happy.
