Pheromone Recognition Disorder

Chapter 96 Ah Ci~

    In fact, after Jiang Ci became an adult, Zhou Jiuya, as a parent, actually thought about what kind of alpha his children would marry with in the future. However, in most of his imagination, Jiang Ci's favorite person should be someone like his brother Jiang.Jinsheng is such a person.

    Gentle, humble, and polite, people feel warm at first sight.

    After all, Jiang Ci only became slightly softer when he faced his biological father when he was a child.

    ——Not like Huo Xianfeng!!!

    A casual sentence can choke someone to death.

    Zhou Jiuya held it in for a long time and finally broke the topic.

    "...There are ruins everywhere in Mingcheng now. Where is the training ground?"

    "It's easy."

    Huo Xianfeng's tone was very casual, and he even glanced at Zhou Jiuya in surprise, as if he was wondering how he could ask such a stupid question.

    "——It would be nice to smash one out."

    Zhou Jiuya: "..."

    Generally speaking, mecha training grounds require a very large area, at least thousands of square meters, and there are also requirements for the flatness of the ground.Even building the crudest and simplest one will take several months.

    This guy actually smashed one out easily?

    At this moment, the young man suddenly stopped.

    Zhou Jiuya also stopped for some reason.But at this second, a terrifying chill suddenly shot up behind him.Because at this moment, Zhou Jiuya saw that all the surroundings were densely packed with huge compound eyes.

    Now, the legion commander came back to his senses and found that he had been following Huo Xianfeng's footsteps. Unknowingly, he had left the area occupied by the first legion and entered the territory of the Zerg.

    Zhou Jiuyao's whole body was tense. He knew that the other party would not attack, but the human instinct still made his hair stand on end.He saw Huo Xianfeng say a few words casually, and then roughly draw a circle.

    It was insect language, so the Legion Commander couldn't understand it.

    But soon, he knew what the other person was talking about.

    Because the moment Huo Xianfeng finished speaking, Zhou Jiuya's hair stood on end, and his dilated pupils reflected dense compound eyes.Countless Zerg crawled out of the ground.

    That scene was like a dense black tide emerging from the ground.

    This almost alarmed the entire First Legion. Most of them had fought against the Zerg before, and the terrible shadow in their hearts was evoked almost instantly.

    "The Zerg are moving! They are flying!"

    "What are they going to do?!"

    "Aren't you going to attack?!"

    "..."

    Countless soldiers and officers immediately picked up their weapons, their nerves instantly tense to the extreme, and they were even ready to rush to the battlefield at any time.But the next second, the voice of the legion commander came from the public communication channel. He issued an order to stay put and not to move.

    Therefore, everyone could only watch quietly and horrifiedly at this moment, with expressions of astonishment and fear, because at this moment, countless huge and terrifying monsters received the king's order, and they flew to high altitudes one after another, lined up neatly, hugeAnd the ferocious body almost covered the entire sky.

    Although humans call these monster races Zerg, it is mainly because they look very similar to insects on the earth, and there are as many types as insects, so they are named Zerg.

    But in fact, the difference between Zerg and insects on Earth is very huge.

    According to their different uses in the army, their external shapes are also very different. Some are as huge as military mechas, responsible for frontline attacks, and some are as mini as tennis balls, responsible for reconnaissance and spying. The cameras of the First Army were originally used by these little guys.It has eaten away the giant starry sky insect responsible for transporting soldiers. Its complete body is almost the same as the aircraft carrier of the First Legion.

    There are all kinds of other things, it’s all kinds of weird.

    But they also have something in common, such as unified compound eyes, powerful mouthparts, peritoneal membranes that vibrate and make sounds, and antennae receptors that receive information.Because the Zerg's main energy source is metal, their shells have a unique metallic luster. Generals like Osa, who are mainly responsible for attacking, look more like huge steel monsters.

    Its sharp limbs resemble a weird metal skeleton, and the bony wings behind it are similar to the skeleton shape of a Western dragon, but the center is filled with a cicada-like film, which is densely covered with red blood vessels like tree roots..

    All in all, the ferocious and terrifying appearance of the low-level Zerg almost perfectly fits all human imaginations of monsters and invaders. Even just one look at them will cause genetic instinct to produce fear and resistance.

    But at this time, the academicians who were inside the central temple did not notice what was happening outside at all.After nearly twenty hours of hard work, they simply pieced together the collapsed and dismembered upper part of the temple and repaired it.

    A white-haired old man was stroking the wall. The complexity and sigh in his eyes were simply indescribable.

    "The architect who designed this temple is really a genius. This structure is a bit like a mechanized mortise and tenon joint. It is usually indestructible and cannot collapse even in a magnitude 10 earthquake. But when the real danger comes, the temple will immediately collapse.Activate the disintegration mechanism, split into countless small parts, and then unfold the defensive shield to preserve the things and people inside as much as possible."

    "It's such a pity to be ruined like this..."

    However, due to its special structure, it is not particularly difficult to repair.So after arriving in Mingcheng, the academicians immediately repaired the upper half of the core of the temple. After reconstruction, it was almost fifty meters high.

    The top floor of the temple is where the Forbidden Abyss was originally restored.

    Jiang Ci is here, together with many academicians, to separate the little

    In fact, they were not very good at using many instruments, because the system frameworks and calculation models of the empire and the church were two completely different things.

    ——But Jin Yuan knew.

    Therefore, although their progress was not extremely fast, they did not encounter any major obstacles.

    "Ah Ci!!!"

    Bai Ze has been miserable for so many days and is so excited for the first time.

    "My outdoor unit repair is complete!"

    I have to say that the mecha repair laboratory on the top floor of the Central Temple is simply amazing. It is worthy of being the place where the 3S mecha Forbidden Abyss is repaired. The outer part of the mecha that Bai Ze was damaged by magma rays was repaired in less than five hours.Complete restoration completed.

    Even the charging speed reached 300%, and it was full in a flash.

    "okay."

    Jiang Ci was very busy, with a cold expression on his face, and just responded without raising his head.

    The restoration of the Forbidden Abyss is being done by the group of academicians. They gather together, discuss something from time to time, and then exclaim in bursts of exclamation.

    Jiang Ci has already written the separation program settings on the other side.

    On the control platform, there was a Forbidden Abyss Black Ring floating on the left, and Little X's mimic silver ring on the right.Between them is a one-way blue data link. The dense data flow is being stripped from the forbidden abyss and then transmitted back to Little X's mecha outer machine.

    Jiang Ci must have repaired Little

    The separation procedure is expected to take two or three days, so we can only wait.

    The core mastermind of the temple has been turned on, and another wave of people is tracking the latter's location through its signal connection with the Holy White Tower.This happened much faster than Jiang Ci imagined, because the private signal channel between Mingcheng and the White Tower of Holy Miracles was not closed.

    Have you forgotten?

    Or was it intentional?

    Jiang Ci thought of the pink-haired woman. Although Huo Xianfeng was interrupted when he mentioned her at that time because of the shocking privacy revelations about Pei Changyun and Huo Chao, the young man still explained to him seriously about Cecilia later.things.

    - That woman was his mother's apostle.

    It can probably be understood that the relationship is extremely close, and can even be called a confidant's existence.

    This also explains why Cecilia emotionally called him for mercy when she saw him.

    With this in mind, Jiang Ci could probably understand the woman's complicated emotions towards him. She seemed to have an almost paranoid yearning for his mother, but more importantly, she hated his father.

    ——It’s just that Jiang Ci couldn’t figure out the reason why Cecilia opened the signal channel for Pei Changyun.

    Is the other party on their side?

    Otherwise, why would he deliberately reveal the location of the Forbidden Abyss to him at that time.

    But this evidence is not sufficient. After all, no one in the Illusion God Sect can use normal thinking to infer.

    Illusion God Cult...

    Now every time he mentions these three words, Jiang Ci can't help but think of one person.He closed his eyes, feeling slightly blocked.

    ——He Zhun.

    At this moment, a beta young man wearing a white lab coat was in front of rows of basketball-sized petri dishes. He was holding an electronic version in his hand and carefully recording various new data.

    Inside the petri dish were golden stigmata, which looked like living tentacles or some kind of weird parasite.

    He Zhun still looked the same as before, with a pair of rimless glasses on the bridge of his nose, but this time, he wore a mask, covering his handsome face, revealing only a pair of amber eyes, slightly lowered, with reflections in the pupils.The densely packed various professional terminology symbols and data appear cold and calm.

    Every detail about him seems to fit all people's imaginations of a scientific research genius.

    However, He Zhun was not the only one in this culture laboratory. There were many, many people wearing the same lab coats as him, who were busy recording daily data.

    A few days ago, He Zhun caught the eye of Bernard, the person in charge of the Stigma Experiment, based on the paper he wrote using Badhua as the experimental subject.Successfully entered the Stigma Research Institute inside the White Tower of Stigma.

    Bernard found out his identity, He Qichu's son.

    He Zhun admitted frankly and reiterated that his purpose of coming here was to avenge Pei Changyun.It was obvious, but the other party did not believe him easily and only let him reproduce the lowest level of stigmata.

    So currently, He Zhun is just the outermost and lowest-status data recorder.

    But in fact, this situation was also expected by He Zhun, and he was not in a hurry, because Badhua's experimental body had already given him a lot of key information, such as the level of stigmata.The level of stigmata is related to the Zerg nerve fluid that feeds them.

    Ordinary believers are not actually golden, but rather dark yellow in color.

    The bishop is light gold, the archbishop is a more brilliant and bright gold, Elder Mandela is red gold, and as for Marshal Huo Chao, He Zhun heard Leinster say before that it seems to be black gold.

    It is obvious that the Pope controls the entire Illusion God Religion through the stigmata, so what method does the other party use?

    Will the Pope also inject stigmata?

    At this time, the mask on his face suddenly moved.

    He Zhun froze instantly. He gritted his teeth and closed his eyes, trying hard to endure the disgusting and creepy feeling of being parasitized and crawling in his body.

    Uncle Jiang...

    This disgusting thing reminded He Zhun of the man's dying appearance.

    Unlike Jiang Ci who completely missed his father's death, He Zhun witnessed the entire process of Jiang Jinsheng's painful death.

    At that time, Jiang Jinsheng was almost as thin as a skeleton. The golden holy marks extended from his heart and covered his body, which was ferocious and terrifying.

    The beautiful long silver hair turned into an old and twilight white, as if all the vitality had been sucked out of the whole person.Feili's eyes were dim and dull, but even so, Jiang Jinsheng still had to show a weak and apologetic smile.

    [Xiao...Xiao Zhun, I'm sorry...]

    [I must be frightened to see you like this...]

    […]

    He Zhun was indeed afraid.But that was not because he was afraid of Jiang Jinsheng's weird and terrifying appearance at that time.

    But he is afraid of losing the other person.

    Tuk, Tuk, Tuk——

    The sound of high heels made everyone stop what they were doing for a moment, and even He Zhun was slightly startled, and the thoughts in his mind suddenly stopped.

    In fact, you don't need to look to know who it is. After all, there is only one woman in the entire Illusion God Religion who can wear high heels in the Holy White Tower.

    He Zhun turned around and saw the enchanting and charming figure in the distance as expected.

    ——It’s Cecilia.

    She was talking to the person in charge here, holding a small metal box in her left hand.Then, the person in charge turned around, pointed at He Zhun, and motioned for him to come over immediately.

    "..."

    He Zhun knew the purpose of Cecilia's visit. It seemed that the latter had confirmed that Huo Xianfeng was not Huo Chao, but he didn't know whether the other party was coming to ask questions or had something else to do.

    It's just that the Omega Archbishop's appearance is not as refined as the last time we met. Her face is still beautiful, but the side face is a little pink. The color of the new flesh after the wound has healed, and her expression also looks a bit...tired.

    ——It seems that the archbishop's task is not very easy.

    He Zhun has been staying in the Holy White Tower and has been cut off from the outside world, so he still doesn't know about the fall of Ming City.

    "Lady Cecilia."

    The young man walked over, bowed his head and saluted, looking respectful and well-behaved.They met and talked in public, so the content could basically be heard by the people around them.

    "Well, it's been a long time no see, Xiao Zhun~"

    Cecilia's tone sounded very close to him, which made the people around her look at the young man a lot differently.At this time, the woman suddenly came closer, stretched out her hand, and casually opened He Zhun's mask.

    The covering was removed, and dark golden scars were clearly printed on the young man's pale side face.

    He Zhun didn't expect that she would do this suddenly, and his whole body stiffened instantly because the other party was so close, so close that it broke the proper distance.

    But He Zhun did not hide, but let her look.He has not fully adapted to the stigmata, so he cannot control it as freely as those believers, and he hides it perfectly in normal times.

    "Wow, it seems that what that guy Leinster said is true."

    Although she learned about it from Ace, in front of He Zhun, she had to say Leinster.

    Cecilia's tone was curious and exaggerated. She touched the side of He Zhun's face, and her fingertips could clearly feel the subtle squirming sensation under the other person's skin.

    The young man's eyelashes trembled slightly, but his tone was calm,

    "...Lady Cecilia, what do you want to see me for?"

    "Well, I have something to come to see Mr. Bernard, and I'll try to trouble you by the way."

    The woman smiled sweetly, not feeling that she was saying anything threatening at all.

    "That guy from Leinster thought I injected you with the stigmata, and he even fought with me fiercely. I just came back from Mingcheng, and you don't even know that guy is called Huo Xianfeng. He's simply scarier than Huo Chao."There are too many, and Leah and Elder Mandela combined can't beat him. He finally came back bruised and bruised, and he treated me like this because of you, Leah is very sad."

    ——Mingcheng fell!

    The meaning of this sentence is obviously this.

    He Zhun's pupils trembled suddenly, but on the surface he did not show too many emotions, he just apologized in a low voice,

    "I'm so sorry, Lady Cecilia, is there anything I can do to calm your anger?"

    "Well……"

    She climbed onto He Zhun's shoulder with the hand holding the small box, while the other hand caressed the side of He Zhun's face casually. Her fingertips slid down the young man's chin, and finally touched the slightly raised chin.He clicked on his Adam's apple and made it clear in a very ambiguous tone,

    "Then, Xiao Zhun, come to me at midnight tonight,"

    The charming omega tilted her head and winked at him,

    "By then, you will know how to make Leah happy."

    "..."

    He Zhun's Adam's apple moved slightly under the woman's fingertips. He lowered his eyes and responded obediently,

    "Okay, Lady Cecilia, I will be there on time tonight."

    As soon as these words came out, the sights that Ruoyouruowu glanced around him instantly became hot and complicated.

    No one expected that He Zhun had just broken up with Leinster and turned around to climb up to Cecilia.I don't know what this mediocre beta is capable of, and why one after another archbishops who usually have eyes in the sky like him.

    At this moment, the person in charge behind him reminded in a low voice,

    "Lady Cecilia, Mr. Bernard is already waiting for you inside."

    ——Bernard is the head of the Stigma Research Institute.

    "Okay, let's go."

    Cecilia stood on tiptoe and rubbed He Zhun's head. This action was full of love for pets, but when applied to people, it had an obvious sense of contempt and insult.But He Zhun accepted it naturally.

    Cecilia turned around, was led by the person in charge, and followed slowly further inside on high heels.

    He Zhun stared at Cecilia's beautiful and enchanting back, guessing the other person's purpose for asking him out tonight.

    He Zhun didn't think that the other person was as superficial as Leinster, but he just took a fancy to his body.After all, He Zhun still had some self-awareness. The other party probably wanted to get something or information from him.

    Countless doubts flashed through He Zhun's mind, but he didn't have a definite answer now.

    The young man closed his eyes, put on his mask, and returned to his workstation to continue his work.But after talking to Cecilia, he clearly felt that the eyes of the people around him had changed.

    At least, the rejection and hostility just now quickly subsided.

    He Zhun lowered his eyes, knowing very well that this was probably the olive branch thrown by Cecilia to him. This meant that for He Zhun, she would be a more suitable, safer, and more worthy person to cling to than Leinster.Tree.

    After all, since Leinster failed in his last mission on Asparagus and was sent to the Hall of Discipline, the Pope has obviously relied more on Cecilia.I just don’t know what impact this incident in Mingcheng will have on her.

    But at present, it seems that the Omega Archbishop is still highly trusted, otherwise she would not be qualified to enter here... But no matter how many guesses He Zhun has at this time, the final answer may only be to see Cecilia tonight.Just found out.

    The young man recorded the data one by one with an expressionless face and put the last stroke on the electronic board.

    despair

    His eyes were fixed on the time in the upper left corner.

    There are still ten hours until midnight.

    He Zhun thought of the box Cecilia was carrying just now.

    ——That is a box specially designed to contain and preserve genes.

    And she had just returned from Mingcheng.

    So this also means that Cecilia got someone's genes in Mingcheng.

    Could it be Huo Xianfeng's?Or is it from Jiang Ci?

    After all, the former is the person the Pope cares about, who is suspected of being Marshal Huo Chao, while the latter is the child of Her Royal Highness the Saint that Cecilia has always been obsessed with.

    And the important point is that according to the information collected by He Zhun so far, no one has seen the saint Bai Min with a holy mark on her body.But perhaps only Cecilia, Her Royal Highness's personal apostle, knows whether there is any.

    ——So these two are the most likely.

    If he could choose, He Zhun just hoped it wouldn't be Jiang Ci's.

    "Major General Jiang Ci——!"

    At the same time, in Ming City, in the mecha repair room on the top floor of the Central Temple, soldiers hurried in, looking horrified.

    "Outside……"

    Before he finished speaking, everyone heard a loud noise coming from outside.

    boom!

    boom!

    boom!!!

    The ground shook violently, and even the entire temple shook.It felt very much like an attack.

    "Enemy attack?!"

    "Quick, quick..."

    Before Jiang Ci was thirteen years old, he entered the juvenile class affiliated with the Capital Academy of Sciences. Coupled with Jiang Jinsheng's relationship, it can be said that all the academicians behind him can be counted as his teachers.

    Therefore, when they thought they were being attacked by an enemy, the first reaction of the white-haired old men was to protect Jiang Ci. After all, in their eyes, Jiang Ci was an omega and a child in his twenties.

    But at this time, Jiang Ci climbed over the fence with one hand, jumped off the repair control platform more than ten meters high, and strode towards the door with fast and steady steps, as if the shaking ground had no impact on him.He looked cold and solemn,

    "What's going on? Briefly report the key points. Was it an attack?"

    "no no……"

    Probably because Jiang Ci's calm and collected appearance infected him, the soldier quickly regained his composure.

    "It's the Zerg. The whole sky is densely packed with... But, they seem to be hitting the ground."

    Jiang Ci: "...?"

    As soon as he heard this, he knew that it was Huo Xianfeng who did it again.He strode out, intending to see with his own eyes what this guy was up to.Behind him, a group of white-haired old researchers also walked out.

    The moment they went out, the academicians were almost instantly shocked by the sight in front of them and a little afraid. Although they were briefly informed of the truth, their fear of the Zerg still did not disappear.

    Indeed, just as the soldier said, the sky was densely packed with Zerg, but the huge impact sound was no longer there.Because when they looked around, the place that was supposed to be ruins had completely changed its appearance.

    Those huge monsters smashed into a sunken semi-elliptical training ground. It was extremely wide and the surface was very flat. Although it didn't look particularly exquisite, in terms of quality, it could indeed be regarded as a qualified training ground.

    Zhou Jiuya controlled Wan Jiang to stand in the center of the training ground. He looked up and saw Jiang Ci surrounded by a group of old scholars. This familiar scene seemed to have happened a long, long time ago.

    Jiang Ci entered the juvenile class affiliated with the Capital Academy of Sciences at the age of twelve and showed unparalleled talent.Jiang Jin was alive and dead at that time, and Jiang Ci's appearance and talent made the old men at the Academy of Sciences want to treat him as a treasure.

    Just after turning thirteen, Jiang Ci suddenly decided to quit the juvenile class and prepare for the military academy, and no one could persuade him.Even later the emperor was harassed by academicians for several months.

    Pei Changyun had a severe headache and asked Zhou Jiuya to block it.

    The legion commander basically lived by orders for most of his life, following the orders of the marshal and the emperor, and giving orders to the officers.Of course, I don’t know how to deal with a group of old academics, so I can only say,

    [Jiang Ci is already preparing for the military academy exam. I will let him endure some hardships. If he finds that he is not suitable, he will come back.]

    Speaking of this, Zhou Jiuya felt that it would be difficult to explain to Jiang Ci if he really passed the exam, so he added,

    [To put it bluntly, if he really passes the exam, you all know Jiang Ci’s character. An omega will not stay in the alpha group for a long time, and he will always come back...]

    But I didn't expect that before I finished saying this sentence, it would instantly arouse the anger of the crowd.

    [What a hardship!!!Why does a minor omega have to endure hardship?!!]

    [Do you know how precious a good seedling is?Jiang Ci's talent is no less than that of his father!!!]

    [Zhou Jiuya, you will destroy him by doing this!!!]

    Speaking of which, this was not the end. The commander of the army, who was all-powerful in the military headquarters, was completely surrounded by criticism. A group of old men surrounded him and scolded him until he was bloody.

    [And what is Jiang Ci’s character?What's wrong with our Xiaojiang???]

    All of them felt that Jiang Ci's personality was good enough, but he just didn't like to talk and was a little introverted.This is absolutely normal for a genius!

    [——What genius doesn’t have a weird temper?]

    These people all have weird tempers.

    This is normal!!!

    Zhou Jiuya:...

    Zhou Jiuya went crazy.

    This was the first time in his life that he couldn't fight even if he was beaten, and he couldn't explain it.

    So later on, the Legion Commander simply hid.Jiang Ci was successfully admitted to the military academy, and the child began to make a name for himself in major military academy competitions and mecha leagues. Jiang Ci gradually transformed from the genius in the youth class of the Academy of Sciences, as people said, to the only member of the Empire's First Legion.An omega major general.

    When that time came, Zhou Jiuya stopped hiding.

    Because no one thinks that Jiang Ci can't do it anymore.

    No one knew that on the day Jiang Ci was awarded the rank of major general, while countless people cheered, a group of old men beat their chests and cried bitterly at the Capital Academy of Sciences.

    At this time, when everyone was stunned, they saw Wan Jiang standing fiercely in the center of the training ground, next to a huge Zerg monster that was almost as tall as him.

    At this moment, whether it was the soldiers of the First Legion or the old men on the top floor of the Central Temple, almost everyone's eyes were focused on the center of the training ground.

    Jiang Ci saw Huo Xianfeng on Osa's head, and he had a vague premonition in his heart.

    This guy isn't going to say anything dirty again, is he?

    Thinking of this, Jiang Ci quickly dialed Huo Xianfeng's communication. Because there was no Xiao X, he gave the other party a communicator.So now, the Major General dialed the other party's communication number almost as fast as he could in his life, and then lowered his voice and asked,

    "Huo Xianfeng, what are you doing again?!"

    The latter did not answer immediately, but slowly connected the communicator to the central temple's broadcast.He waved to Jiang Ci and said,

    "Ah Ci, it's time to rest. Take Bai Ze with you and come down to play——"

    The next second, the radio faithfully conveyed this sentence.

    "Come down and play -"

    "Come and play——"

    "Just having fun——"

    "Son..."

    Jiang Ci: "..."

    Zhou Jiuya: "..."

    The moment he heard the content of Huo Xianfeng's shouting, the legion commander standing on the ground felt that he was a fool.

    ——What a huge fool!!!

    He turned down so many urgent military affairs, but when Huo Xianfeng aroused him, he rushed here with a fever... to play?

    play???

    And it was in full public view, everyone saw it!!!

    Zhou Jiuya's head was pulsing with veins, and he quickly gave himself a breath to avoid being angry to death.

    Under countless scorching gazes, the Major General's face was expressionless, like a quiet and beautiful statue.Although he seemed calm and calm, in fact, all the cells in Jiang Ci's body felt the familiar embarrassment again.

    He discovered that when the other party called him Ah Ci, it was either in front of many elders, or when they were intimate.

    Huo Xianfeng would be unhappy if he didn't do something for a day!And it has to be such a big noise every time!!!

    But unfortunately, no one can cure him!

    Jiang Ci silently looked at the flamboyant and confident young man below, and finally couldn't help turning his head away, silently covering his face.

    How should I put it, he now has a kind of——

    The feeling of seeing your boyfriend standing downstairs in his house and shouting "Let's go out on a date".
