Yue An checked the history of the Free Army.

It had to be said that even if the forces of the 18th Galaxy were chaotic and xenophobic, the people of the Army still did a very good job of intelligence work.

Yue An browsed through them, but he couldn't find anything useful from the war records.

He could only see that overall, the Free Army won more battles than they lost. For example, large-scale battles where they expanded their territory under the banner of liberation.

But small, informal skirmishes, such as coming to the seventeenth system to take advantage of the situation, often resulted in them being driven back to their hometowns.

Yue An didn't know how the Free Army sneaked into the heavily guarded G11 capital. According to the records of various surveillance and detection equipment provided by the local garrison, these machines didn't record any traces at all.

Yue An didn't find anything unusual. He rested his chin on his hand and sat cross-legged on the chair. He thought for a bit, took out the cat-shaped optical computer, and used Ji Xiuyun's authority to search.

Sure enough, Ji Xiuyun's authority was much more powerful.

Yue An saw the detailed information at the bottom of the addendum, which included text, pictures, analysis, and news reports from various parties. There were even one or two intermittent video recordings.

Yue An looked at the battle analysis and found that in all of the victorious battles, it was speculated that the commander behind the battle was the same person.

Most of the staff officers or generals who were able to take on the heavy responsibility of commanding battles had their own style.

For example, Ji Xiuyun would always be magnanimous as he rolled over his opponents. Marshal Kevin, on the other hand, was more inclined to take a detour and save as much energy as he could.

The reason why so many war analysts recognized that the commander behind those battles was the same person was because the commanding style of these victorious battles was very clear and precise. It was from the same person.

The Free Army recruited an incredible staff officer.

This staff officer's style could be summed up with one word – strange.

In the battle records and analysis of the victorious battles, people found that this staff officer, whose name and identity weren't announced to the public, was always able to send a few surprise troops to interfere and disrupt the situation at the most critical moment of the battle.

He especially liked to quietly sneak into the enemy's rear when the front line was fiercely fighting. He cut off the enemy's supply line and stole logistical resources. He even directly destroyed the enemy's command center.

This sounded simple, but it was very difficult to actually execute.

The route of the supply line was absolutely confidential, but this staff officer was always able to accurately deploy troops to ambush the enemy on the absolutely confidential route and take advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness to achieve victory.

Yue An clicked on the few intermittent videos.

He didn't know much about the concept of fighter jets, which required a lot of learning and experience. However, he was able to distinguish the rough array arrangement in the intermittent images.

He had a certain precognitive ability.

He knew how to arrange some crude and weak array formations.

He could only bully ordinary people who didn't know anything about the power of the mystical side.

Yue An repeatedly looked at the weak array formations a few times, and immediately felt relieved.

It was really difficult to catch him with this little ability.

The small accident from before didn't count.

Yue An turned his head and glanced at the holographic image of the street next to him.

This incomplete trapping array couldn't trap him.

That was why people said that this person was really stupid.

He used a few incomplete and rough arrays to bully ordinary people who didn't know anything. He became arrogant after winning a few battles.

Using this kind of trash to catch him, could it be that he was an idiot?

He didn't know where he got the guts from.

The only thing that Yue An couldn't figure out was why that person wanted to catch him.

It was possible that he wanted to make a wish for him, but it didn't make sense.

After all, other than himself and Ji Xiuyun, no one else knew that he was the Nine-Tailed Cat.

Yue An stood up and patted his butt. He decided to wait for the military's intelligence personnel to work hard to obtain the identity of the prophetic staff officer.

He had more important things to confirm at the moment.

The Marshal's cat finally didn't stay in the house today.

The soldiers were a little excited.

Yue An squatted by the side of the corridor. He didn't reject anyone who walked past him and touched him.

Yue An wanted to stroll to the science class and find some catmint to stimulate himself.

He didn't do it for anything else. He just wanted to figure out if something had happened to him recently.

Recently, whenever he was with Ji Xiuyun, he couldn't help but stare at him in a daze.

Yue An knew why he kept staring at Ji Xiuyun. He wanted to see Ji Xiuyun's bright and rich colors again.

However, after staring at him for a long time, Yue An realized that Ji Xiuyun looked very good even when he was focusing on his work with his eyes lowered.

The kind of youthful calmness that came from doing his best and doing his job with ease was completely different from the kind of procrastination monsters like them, who often slacked off halfway through their work.

In fact, monsters were very lazy when it came to other things, except for things that concerned their lives and power.

Perhaps it was because of their long lifespan. Unlike humans, who always had to race against time and were very sensitive to the passing of time, monsters had too much time.

With the efficiency of demons, the things that humans did in a day could be dragged on for more than a week.

They would rather spend their time eating, drinking, playing, and sleeping than doing anything serious.

The only thing that could motivate monsters to work hard was the sense of danger and the temptation of great power. There was almost nothing else that could motivate monsters to work hard.

However, recently, seeing how motivated Ji Xiuyun was, Yue An was horrified to find that he couldn't help but become diligent.

He wondered if he had been possessed.

He really needed to take a breath of catmint to calm down.

Yue An meowed at the soldier who was still touching him. The tip of his tail curled up slightly, swayed, and turned around to leave.

Just like how humans would speak the truth after drinking, they would speak their truest thoughts.

After taking a breath of catmint, the cat's brain would become excited. The things that he did and the words he said would be the portrayal of his inner thoughts.

Simply put, when he was extremely excited or not sober, regardless of whether he was a human or a cat, he would speak and do things without thinking. He would say whatever he wanted to say and reveal his inner thoughts.

That was why it was said that alcohol made people fearless.

Catmint made a cat fearless.

Yue An decided to take a big breath of catmint after Ji Xiuyun came back from the meeting. He wanted to see what his truest thoughts were.

As for Ji Xiuyun, at this moment, he was holding a stack of interrogation results regarding the few freedom army captives. He gently touched the paper in front of him.

"'Our goal is to revive the universe', what does that mean?" Ji Xiuyun frowned slightly.

"There is no relevant information." The First Army Commander shook his head. The projections of the other army commanders were also at a loss.

The Fifth Army Commander in charge of the interrogation paused and said, "They also said that it was to save all of humanity."

Ji Xiuyun didn't say anything. He looked down at the relevant information.

This stack of interrogation records seemed to be out of his expectations. Currently, he knew that the captives were the trusted aides of the so-called Prophet.

The Free Army was divided into two factions. One faction insisted on leading the 18th Galaxy back to the motherland. The other faction was the Prophet's faction. They said that they wanted to revive the universe and save all of humanity.

"Capturing Yue An was a special secret operation. The goal was also to revive the universe and save all of humanity." The Fifth Army Commander was helpless.

What did Yue An have to do with this?

However, these people seemed to have been brainwashed. They firmly believed in this point and believed in the prophet they spoke of.

"Let's not worry about this for now."

Ji Xiuyun put the information in his hands aside. "Old Six has already set off with a large amount of resources and reinforcements. Based on the Free Army's performance in the past few years, the person who will be waiting for us should be the advisor who hasn't shown himself yet. The reinforcements should be careful on their way here."

"Speaking of the advisor, Marshal." The First Army Commander took over and tapped on the interface in front of him a few times.

A few star maps appeared in the virtual conference room.

"Regarding the labyrinthine deployment method that Yue An gave us a few days ago, I discovered a … small secret."

The small secret that the First Army Commander mentioned was that they compared the complete array that Yue An gave them with the deployment information provided by the mysterious advisor.

They discovered that the deployment method provided by Yue An was highly similar to the advisor's. However, it was more complete, more flexible, and more hidden.

The First Army Commander asked directly, "Before Yue An was adopted, did he have any relationship with the mysterious advisor?"

"No."

Ji Xiuyun denied this point without even thinking about it. At the same time, he gave his cat boy a huge explanation. "Yue An has been researching the Free Army recently. He figured it out himself."

What an amazing talent.

The First Army Commander silently suppressed the question of access to the intelligence.

After all, in his eyes, the two of them were already dating. Yue An's current performance was truly outstanding. If the Marshal felt that it was fine, then it was fine.

In the end, the outcome of the war was still good.

After the meeting ended, Marshal Ji walked back with two guards behind him. He focused on thinking about the information provided by the Free Army captives.

Ji Xiuyun didn't see Yue An in the office.

He threw the documents in his hands on the small table next to the office door. He left the guards at the door and returned to his room.

As soon as he opened the door, the milky-white ball rushed out like a small cannonball and covered Ji Xiuyun's face.

Ji Xiuyun reflexively blocked the small cannonball. Then, he used his hands to support Yue An's butt. "What …"

"Meow ~" Yue An straightened up. He hugged Ji Xiuyun's head with his two front paws and rubbed his forehead with all his strength.

Marshal Ji's line of sight was blocked by his cat. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the bedding and pillow stuffing flying all over the room.

He also saw a small half of a test tube peeking out from under a pile of stuffing.

It seemed that Yue An was high.

The soft cat hair rubbing against his face felt great. Ji Xiuyun enjoyed the cat's initiative for a while. Then, he saved his head from the cat's claws and looked down at Yue An.

This was the first time that Yue An and Ji Xiuyun looked at each other for a long time.

The blue eyes of the cat were as wide as the blue sea. He stared unblinkingly at the pitch-black eyes that had troubled him for more than a week.

At this moment, Ji Xiuyun's back was against the light. His eyes, which were like the Milky Way, were now a silent black.

He stared intently at the cat in his hand. His usual cold and hard expression actually showed a trace of softness.

"Are you confused by the ugliness?" Ji Xiuyun asked.

"…"

Yue An wasn't that ugly.

Yue An lowered his head and buried his face in the pads of his paws. The tip of his tail curled up shyly and happily and wrapped around Ji Xiuyun's wrist.

Marshal Ji saw that Yue An had chosen to lower his head and not look at him. He couldn't help but touch his own face.

He seemed to have found the most fundamental reason why Yue An refused to date him.
