The Spider Queen

Chapter 663 An Abandoned Base



(Hydra Star System- Planet Eleron)

(Elite Student Housing Complex- Mansion 456Y)

Sophie closed her eyes and massaged her temples gently. Memories began to flow into her mind from the link between herself and her clone.

They were not pleasant ones.

The hybrid girl furrowed her brows as she experienced the sensation of having her ribs broken and then part of her body sliced off.

Not just part of her body… her entire lower half. Intestines fell out of her stomach as she lay helplessly on the ground.

No… that person was not her… it was her clone.

Deep breaths… deep breaths…

The memories ended with a loud booming noise and a feeling of intense heat when the clone triggered the explosive device.

Sophie opened her eyes and reached for the glass of water next to her chair. She took a small sip and enjoyed the cool liquid as it slid down her throat.

Rsychosis was indeed a powerful technique, but she would be lying if she said that it did not affect her when she received memories of dying in painful ways.

No wonder her mirror copies were always so unhappy when they were summoned. Most of the time their existence ended quite… painfully.

"You okay?" Cleo asked with concern evident in her voice. The princess walked over to her girlfriend and gently held her hands.

"Yeah… I'm fine. The mirror copy was just killed so I had to receive her memories," Sophie explained calmly.

Cleo's hand tightened its grip on Sophie's palm as the princess understood what the hybrid girl meant.

"Well… I did learn some useful information, but I definitely have more questions than answers," Sophie spoke while maintaining a thoughtful expression.

She powered on her wrist communicator and began to write out a message with the important information that she had learnt.

Fortunately, after a bug and virus sweep, it had been discovered that her wrist communicator had not been compromised so it was safe to send a message to her father.

"First of all, the location of their base should be somewhere around this region…" Sophie muttered as she inputted in a series of coordinates that were the middle of an asteroid field.

"They appear to have been conducting genetic experiments and have an army of qi spirit and qi tide cultivators."

"There was a single cultivator in the void stage, but it would be wise to assume that there may be more."

"Finally, the person behind this was someone who had the appearance of Prince Luke. It may be the real one, but further investigation is required."

"Prince Luke? Who is that?" Cleo asked with a bit of confusion on her face.

"He said that he's the full brother of the crown prince. They have the same mother and everything," Sophie explained as she finished writing up the message.

She took a moment to review all that she had written and filled out some additional minor details before sending out the message to her father.

With his strength and connections there was no need for Cleo and her to investigate the matter themselves.

In fact, it would be safer to just stay put on the main campus for now.

Zrudread University was one of the four great cultivation universities in the entire Federation.

There were guards and secret organisation employed by the college in order to keep the students safe from outside threats.

Of course, these individuals would not interfere when students went on dangerous missions outside of the university's territories.

Sophie powered off her communicator and pulled Cleo onto her lap. She wrapped her arms around her girlfriend's soft belly and hummed gently in her ear.

"I'm sure this is something to do with the ritual to become the next leader of the Imperial Family," Sophie whispered calmly.

"The sooner the winner is chosen… the better…" Cleo replied in a small voice as she looked off into the distance.

She was clearly distracted by something, but Sophie didn't pry. Sometimes it was best just to remain silent and enjoy the mood.

Several minutes passed in complete silence as Sophie relaxed with her girlfriend in her arms while Cleo appeared to be in a daze.

"If… if I was stronger… would you have supported me?" Cleo suddenly broke the relaxed atmosphere with an unexpected question.

"Of course, but I… I thought that you didn't want to become the next empress," Sophie replied with a puzzled tone.

Cleo nervously played with her fingers as she opened her mouth to confess the true thoughts in her heart,

"No… I mean the logical part of me knows that it is more trouble than its worth but ever since I was a little girl… my mother always drilled into my head that I would be the next leader."

"It was her dream and not mine but… after hearing it for so long. I would be lying if I said that a part of me wouldn't mind being the next empress.

"Well… if in a few thousand years later they hold the next leadership ceremony. You can count on me!" Sophie teased lightly.

"Unfortunately, I might be an old grey-haired woman so I don't know if my ancient bones will be able to help too much."

"You? Old? Hmm… I am attracted to young women not grandmas so… hmmm… we might have to break up," Cleo replied with a mischievous glint in her eyes.

"Oh really?" Sophie cocked an eyebrow and stared at her girlfriend.

She leaned forward and softly nibbled on her neck making Cleo squeal and squirm slightly in her lap.

Sophie's hands wandered downwards, and she gave Cleo's ass a playful squeeze and a firm slap that echoed through the room.

"How about your soon to be ex-girlfriend gives you a taste of what you'll miss when you break up with me?" Sophie hoarsely whispered as her golden eyes flashed pink.

Cleo felt a shiver of anticipation run down her spine as she stared into her girlfriend's hungry eyes that were full of lust and desire.

"Sure…" she managed to breathlessly whisper before Sophie picked her up in her arms and carried her to the bed.

The hybrid girl snapped her fingers and the automated light system in the room slowly dimmed.

She slid her fingers across Cleo's body with slow deliberate movements.

The princess smiled as her girlfriend playfully tugged and pulled at her clothes without actually taking them off.

"I don't have all day," Cleo winked slyly before using her hands to unbutton the top of her dress.

"I do apologise your highness…" Sophie said solemnly as she placed one palm on her chest and gave a short bow.

"Allow me to serve you as your loyal subject."

(Eight hours later)

Buzz! Buzz!

Sophie blearily opened her eyes and winced as she felt the harsh rays of sunlight fall on her face. Cleo's naked body was lying down next to hers and her girlfriend was still fast asleep.

The princess' body was covered in hickeys, love bites and her face was smeared with pussy juices from when Sophie had gotten a bit too enthusiastic last night.

The hybrid girl gently kissed the top of Cleo's shoulder and then got out of bed. She grabbed her wrist communicator that was on the dresser table nearby and checked her messages.

Buzz! Buzz!

Sophie opened up the inbox and saw quite a few messages from her father.

Apparently, he had sent out two scouting teams immediately following her report and they had managed to reach the base successfully.

The bad news was that the base had already been abandoned by the time they arrived and all that remained were broken glass containers and computer systems that had been intentionally damaged.

There was a hacker in one of the scouting teams and she was currently trying to salvage some data from the destroyed machines.

Sophie's dad promised to send her more information when it became available and then ended the message by wishing Cleo and her well.

Sophie's lips curved upwards as sent back a quick message of thanks along with a reminder to her father to keep safe on the battlefield.

She didn't know what the exact situation on the border between the Federation and Insectoid Empire was but if her father's strength was required…

It could not be good.
