Beta Just Wants to Pilot Mechs

[Completed]

Lin Yi is a once-in-a-century mech genius. Although he's an Imperial second lieutenant, all he cares about is researching mechs. He has no interest whatsoever in the power struggles among the nobility.

But after being framed, Lin Yi is accused of murdering an Omega prince. To investigate the truth and get close to the prince's life, Lin Yi has no choice but to disguise himself as an Omega.

He resolves to be a weak and inconspicuous Omega, but not long after enrolling, Lin Yi runs into an Alpha going berserk during a heat. To protect his roommate, he's forced to pilot a mech and defeat this legendary genius.

From then on, Lin Yi not only earns his roommate's admiration, but also makes a name for himself at the Imperial Military Academy.

Lin Yi, awkwardly: I'm really weak, actually.

The students, speechless: ...You mean the kind of weak that can defeat an S-rank Alpha?

As the investigation deepens, Lin Yi grows troubled. It seems more and more people are always gathering around him, including quite a few people he knew before.

The rumored cold-hearted son of a marshal, an Alpha, blushes and stammers out a confession: "I like you."

Lin Yi pats him on the shoulder. "You like my combat skills? I'll teach you sometime."

The arrogant, refined young Omega grabs his sleeve, looking on the verge of tears. "I want to keep following in your footsteps..."

Lin Yi gives him a thumbs-up. "Good ambition. Then start by aiming to win the Interstellar Mech League."

After meeting so many people, Lin Yi nods in satisfaction. "So many people like piloting mechs."

Everyone, gritting their teeth: ...I hate that you're such a blockhead.

Meanwhile, the supposedly cold-blooded and ruthless youngest colonel in the Empire, an Alpha and Lin Yi's closest companion, glares at him and demands, "When did you get involved with all these people?"

Bonus scene:

Disguised under his secret identity, Lin Yi becomes the most popular person at the Imperial Military Academy. Yet there are still people who mock him. "No matter how good this Omega is at piloting mechs, he's still no match for Second Lieutenant Lin Yi."

Later, the Zerg invade the Empire, and countless mutated creatures surge in, tearing through space itself. The others fight for a long time but remain powerless to stop them.

Just as everyone falls into despair, Lin Yi appears in his military uniform, his expression composed, piloting his one-of-a-kind 3S-rank mech.

In the blink of an eye, every Zerg within five miles is reduced to ash, while dozens of other people barely manage to block a single creature's attack.

The crowd stares in shock. So this Omega is actually their idol, Second Lieutenant Lin Yi!

An S-rank Alpha who learns mechs to win his love, a double-standard, love-struck gong x A mech genius and oblivious heartthrob, a Beta shou forced into a love-triangle nightmare

A preview of an upcoming novel: "The Straight-Laced Dragon Protagonist Transmigrates into a Harem Protagonist's Furnace"

Ning Xun likes playing a massive cultivation RPG. He completes every secret-realm dungeon, romances every important character, and finally grinds his way to becoming a max-level dragon protagonist.

Then one day, he transmigrates into the game and becomes a lowly furnace in the Hehuan Sect.

The good news: He knows how to switch back to his main account.

The bad news: He has to cultivate with a man to accumulate spiritual energy.

Fortunately, they can cultivate together through skin-to-skin contact.

Ning Xun immediately runs away from the Hehuan Sect. When he learns that his old buddies have become big shots and are desperately searching for him, he's overjoyed. He gets ready to reveal his identity and mooch some spiritual energy, but then...

The gentle and refined senior disciple, head of the immortal sect, points his sword at Ning Xun's brow. His gaze is cold and distant. "My heart already belongs to Xiao Xun. Please conduct yourself with dignity."

His old friend, a capricious former companion who is now a revered Demon Lord, grabs his face and studies him with narrowed eyes and a faint smile. "You do look a little like Ning Xun. Why not stay by my side and be his stand-in?"

Ning Xun's eyes widen in shock. Bro, are you in or not?

To protect his chastity, he can only nervously keep his secret identity hidden.

With nowhere else to turn, Ning Xun sets his sights on the dragon-protagonist junior disciple he happened to save. This guy doesn't know Ning Xun is his senior brother, and he has no improper thoughts about Ning Xun's main account.

To absorb spiritual energy, Ning Xun shamelessly pins him to the bed every day and snuggles up to him.

The junior disciple not only doesn't mind Ning Xun's furnace constitution, he even lets Ning Xun interlace their fingers. His ears turn scarlet, his lashes tremble, and he stammers, "You saved me, so... I should repay your kindness."

Ning Xun is moved to tears. A true friend shows himself in hard times. Once he gets his main account back, he'll make sure to repay his junior disciple properly.

One night, with his spiritual-energy meter almost full, Ning Xun cheerfully plans out his wonderful future, when he'll get his main account back and rule the cultivation world.

Outside the window, the pressure of the immortal sect's senior disciple and the Demon Lord suddenly descends.

Ning Xun is horrified and about to run when the junior disciple behind him, who is holding him and transferring spiritual energy, casually raises a hand. In an instant, he crushes the oppressive force.

Ning Xun turns back in shock. The junior disciple takes the opportunity to kiss him. His ears burn red, but his eyes hide a deep possessiveness. "Shixiong, don't mind them. We've already cultivated together. It's time we decided to become Dao Companions."

The smile freezes on Ning Xun's lips. "Wait, what did you call me?"
