Lexie sighed inwardly, ‘How many years would it take for huma technology to get this advanced? As a total tech newbie, this kind of high–tech stuff is just something I can’t even imagin

Right now, Lexie felt like a beggar stumbling into some ultra–luxurious mansion. If it weren’t for the awkward timing and her current status, she would’ve just yelled, “Holy crap!”

Austin could clearly see the shock written all over Lexie’s face. His battleship was definitely fancy, but folks in this era. weren’t exactly clueless hicks who’d never seen luxury before.

Even if people would admire his ship, nobody would be as blow away as Lexie was.

Austin wondered, ‘Where did this artificial female bot even come from? Everything about her just screams out of place.

However, he couldn’t make a move on her until he had some real evidence.

So, with both Lexie and Austin wrapped up in their own though, they headed to the mess hall together.

As soon as they walked into the mess hall, Lexie was totally stunned. The place was massive, and it was packed wall–to–wall with all sorts of gorgeous guys.

Lexie couldn’t help but blurt out, “Wow!”

There were so many hotties around that it felt like she’d stumbled straight into a romance comic. Every single one was built like a superhero, had a perfect face, and carried himself with than irresistible dream–guy energy.

Even though they all wore the same uniform, each guy had his own unique style. Some had that cool, minimalist vibe, others looked like actual royalty, but every one of them oozed their own brand of charm.

Lexie felt like she was drowning in a sea of eye candy. Every glance and smile made her heart skip a beat.

She couldn’t help sneaking a peek at Austin, only to find him giving her that cool stare. The moment their eyes met, Lexie whipped her gaze away, not daring to look around anymore.

She refused to let herself get swept up by all these handsome faces. She took a deep breath, trying to steady herself. She reminded herself, ‘It’s just a meal, Lexie. Don’t let all this eye candy mess with your head.

However, her heart kept pounding, and that rush just wouldn’t fade.

Lexie yelped inwardly, ‘Oh my goodness, I’ve totally landed in a hest of super hunks. I’ve never seen so many absolute stunners all in one place.

Just as Lexie was spacing out, totally lost in all the hot guys, Austin finally spoke up, “Lexie, just go get whatever you want from the food counter up there.”

“Oh, okay. Marshal Drake, how about I grab something for you? Lexie asked.

“Nah, I’ll get my own,” Austin replied.

Seeing how scrawny Lexie was, Austin couldn’t help but think, ‘With her skinny frame, how could I possibly ask her to do anything for me?

After Austin shot her down with that icy reply, Lexie didn’t dare ay another word. She just followed behind him, making her way to the food counter.

When they got to the food counter, Lexie took a look and saw that the menu was super basic. There were basin–sized slabs of meat and a bunch of veggies she couldn’t even recognize.

Lexie wasn’t about to touch any of that. Instead, her eyes drifted to a big box off to the side, stacked with vials of nutrient fluid that everyone else seemed to be ignoring.

Seeing the nutrient fluid, Lexie glanced nervously at Austin and sked cautiously, “Marshal Drake, can I have some nutrient fluid?”

“You’re not going to eat any real food? Just going for that?” Austin asked, his voice low and a bit incredulous as he glanced at the mid–grade nutrient fluid off to the side.

After all, in the Aetherion Interstellar Zone, natural food was way more precious than nutrient fluid. Even here on the battleship, the crew hardly ever got to enjoy anything fresh.

With all these mouthwatering dishes laid out, she actually chose the basic nutrient fluid over real, delicious food. Honestly, Austin just couldn’t figure her out.

Under Austin’s probing gaze, Lexie could only mumble, “Um, I just want some nutrient fluid. Can I?”

“Take as much as you want, but don’t waste it,” Austin said coolly

“Got it. I won’t waste a drop,” Lexie replied.

With that in mind, Lexie poured herself a glass of water, then marched right up and piled her plate high with more than a dozen vials of nutrient fluid.

Seeing that stack of nutrient fluid on Lexie’s tray, Austin couldn’t help but frown.

Just one bottle of mid–grade nutrient fluid was enough to cover all the energy a beastman needed for an entire day. Normally, a beastman would never drink more than one in a day

But seeing Lexie grab a whole bunch of mid–grade nutrient fluid at once, Austin wondered, ‘Can such a petite female really handle all that?‘

But then Austin remembered that Lexie was an artificial female Bot. She’d probably burn through more energy than most in a day, and that was just normal for her kind.

Thus, Austin didn’t bother to say anything more. He picked out is food, grabbed his tray, and headed straight for a table off to the side.

Seeing Austin walk away, Lexie didn’t dare stick around. She trailed right behind.

But as she walked past one of the beastmen, Lexie’s eyes went wille when she spotted the huge, fluffy tail swaying behind

him.

‘Holy crap, is this guy doing some cosplay or what?‘ Lexie thought, totally stunned. “That tail looks insanely real, and it actually moves!

Honestly, Lexie was itching to reach out and grab that tail, just to see what it felt like.

But then she remembered she didn’t even know the guy. She didn’t want the guy to get mad.

Lexie forced herself to resist the urge, quickly turning away and heading over to where Austin was sitting.

Austin had noticed Lexie’s odd reaction earlier, but he just figure it was the artificial female bot’s built–in soothing function kicking in.

Whenever they spotted a beastman who was going out of contr their companion and soothing functions would automatically activate, trying to calm the beastman down.

So Austin didn’t pay Lexie’s strange behavior any mind. He just cused on his meal and kept eating.

And since it didn’t cost her a dime, Lexie just chugged them down one after another. In no time at all, she’d wiped out more than a dozen vials of mid–grade nutrient fluid.

After chugging down all the nutrient fluid she got, Lexie felt totally refreshed. She licked her lips, staring at her empty tray.

She hesitated for a second, then peeked up at Austin sitting across from her, her voice barely above a whisper.

“Marshal Drake, is it cool if I grab a few more nutrient fluid?” Lexie asked.

“You still aren’t full?” Austin couldn’t help blurting out, his voice inged with disbelief.

He stared at the row of empty vials lining the table, then looked at Lexie, his eyes wide with genuine shock.
