Do Aliens Also Have Arranged Marriages? - Chapter 4

Chapter 4 – “Admiral Shen, Congratulations On Your Marriage”

Shen Yan connected to the captain of Team 1 and the call was quickly connected.

“Shen Yan, are you okay?” The hurried tone was full of worry.

Shen Yan ignored the meaningless question from the other side and said coldly: “Captain Feng, Area C3 has been cleared. Please ask Team 1 to withdraw from the high-risk area and stand by. I will go to check the situation in other areas.”

“… Got it.” Feng Qi had just spoken when he noticed a “beep” interruption sound from the other end of the conversation.

“…Fuck you!”

Feng Qi stared at the black screen of Star Brain and couldn’t help but curse.

‘This kid is becoming more and more ruthless.’

The expression on Feng Qi’s face changed, and finally all his emotions turned into a helpless sigh.

Ever since that transformation experiment, Shen Yan has become a completely different person from the friend he remembered.

Six years ago, the research institute discovered that all alien species carry “seeds” in their bodies. The “seeds” are believed by the doctor to be the key source of viruses that transform humans into alien species. However, as long as the activity of the “seeds” is reduced and implanted into the human body, humans can acquire some of the alien species’ abilities.

At that time, the Central Base had a large population and always attracted waves of alien species. Just to resist the alien attacks, a large amount of resources and weapons were consumed every day.

After obtaining the latest results from the research institute, the command center proposed an “Eradication Plan”, which aims to transform humans from passive defense to active elimination of alien species by establishing a special army with alien abilities.

Shen Yan was one of the first people to participate in the experiment, and he was also the only successful experimental subject in the first batch.

At that time, the means of reactivation had not yet been fully perfected, and the “seeds” were easily affected by individuals and were often in a highly active state. Most of the experimental subjects of the same period could not bear the pain brought by the process, nor could they resist the emotional changes brought about by it – tyranny, bloodthirstiness, and hunger.

In the later stages, those failed experimental subjects became the same as those outside – alien species with only the desire to eat and kill.

Only Shen Yan held on, and as a data reference, the activity of the “seeds” implanted by the later transformers was also more stable.

However, because the “seed” in Shen Yan’s body is highly active, the power it displays is very different from theirs.

In others, the functions of the “seeds” are mostly physical or auxiliary, such as self-healing, agility, and enhancement of the five senses. The alien ability in Shen Yan is very offensive and is also an important force for eliminating alien species.

With the establishment of the special extermination force, Shen Yan also became the commander of the special extermination force and the youngest general in the base.

The people in the base gave Shen Yan a nickname- Sword Officer.

Exchange the bloody blade for rebirth at dawn.

But at the same time, he has another not-so-nice nickname——

Butcher.

It is said that it was spread by a member of the search team who was rescued from the aliens by Shen Yan.

That person spread the news everywhere in the base, saying that their admiral had grown a black weapon on his back that looked like an arthropod, and that when he was slaughtering alien species, he looked crazy and had no rationality at all. He was not human at all!

The rumor that Shen Yan was about to turn into an alien species had been quietly spreading in the base recently, causing panic among the entire base.

Feng Qi knew how strong that man’s self-control was, but with Shen Yan almost losing control several times before, and even completely losing contact like today, everything seemed to represent some kind of ominous sign.

Feng Qi’s mood dropped.

He didn’t want that day to come when Shen Yan would completely lose control and become an alien that they would have to deal with with guns.

There were not many alien species on Team 2 and Team 3’s side, and when Shen Yan went there, it was already in the final stages.

As the sky darkened, the three teams that went on missions today returned to base.

Central Base.

Isolation room.

“Please briefly describe your identity.”

“Shen Yan, commander of the special extermination force at the Central Base.”

“Are there any abnormalities in today’s mission?”

Shen Yan: “Everything is normal. The cleanup mission was completed smoothly as planned.”

Across the glass, the man in a white coat on the other side held his forehead and smiled bitterly, and had to interrupt him: “Admiral Shen, your mental power value today showed a very strong fluctuation in the monitoring.”

Shen Yan lowered his eyes and said in a cold voice: “Team 1 encountered a group of alien species, and some members were injured…” He paused, and then said: “I received a distress signal, I killed the aliens.”

The words were concise, but Lin Xun could already imagine that not-so-nice picture.

He turned the pen tip and added in the blank space at the bottom of the record book:

【Emotional retention (good)】

【Emotional out-of-control (frequent recently, is there a chance that the degree of alienation will increase?)】

After completing the tedious process, Lin Xun put away the record book.

Shen Yan needed to be isolated longer than others, so Lin Xun sat down and prepared to chat with him for a while.

As Shen Yan’s monitor, Lin Xun had of course also received some news, with a teasing expression on his face: “Admiral Shen, congratulations on your marriage.”

Shen Yan raised his head and looked at him through the glass. There was no emotion in his eyes, but Lin Xun smiled awkwardly: “Don’t look at me, it has nothing to do with me! I don’t have the ability to force an Omega to marry you. I can’t even find a wife myself!”

After the disaster, the survival rate of Omegas was very low. In the population ratio of the Central Base, Alphas accounted for 60%, Betas accounted for 30%, and Omegas accounted for less than 10%. There were too many wolves and too little meat, and most alpha could only form a partner with Betas. Lin Xun even heard that there were many AA relationships recently.

But no matter which method is used, Alpha’s long-term difficult-to-appease mental power and pheromones are a problem, especially for a transformer like Shen Yan. Even if he is unwilling to admit it, his mental power is facing the risk of getting out of control.

Only an Omega has the ability to soothe Alpha’s mental strength.

“Admiral Shen, I think this is a good thing. You should try this method.” Lin Xun’s expression became more serious. “If your mental power gets out of control again, no one knows what will happen.”

Maybe, it will completely become an alien species.

Shen Yan lowered his eyes. Even though Lin Xun didn’t say the last sentence, he could understand what he wanted to say.

Recalling the previous scene, he was also a little confused.

Shen Yan understood that he needed to stabilize his emotions and control the fluctuations of his mental power. After all, he was always fighting for control of his body with that thing inside his body.

But when he received a distress signal from Team 1 and rushed to the scene, and saw densely packed alien species frantically biting the team members’ bodies, the bloodthirsty brutality within him was instantly ignited.

After a moment of silence, Shen Yan asked: “Where is that Omega now?”

Lin Xun shrugged: “How would I know where your Omega is? I heard that he just arrived at the base today. I guess he was arranged to live directly in your apartment.”

Lin Xun lowered his head and glanced at the time.

“Time is almost up.” He notified the medical staff to come in and gave Shen Yan an injection of stabilizer.

Seeing the transparent liquid injected into the blood vessels, Shen Yan’s tense expression relaxed a little, but the monitor on the opposite side spoke at this time:

“Admiral Shen, this is the last stabilizer you will use.”

The cold amber eyes suddenly raised.

Lin Xun spread his hands, indicating that he could not help: “It’s still what the superiors meant.”

When he came out of the isolation room, it was already completely dark.

Shen Yan had to be isolated longer than others, so when he came out, he was the only one there.

He returned to the military apartment, opened the door, and immediately noticed a strange smell in the room.

He paused, without turning on the light, and walked into the living room in the darkness.

With the faint seeping through the floor-to-ceiling windows, Shen Yan narrowed his eyes and saw the Omega sleeping soundly on the sofa.

The young man had delicate and harmless eyebrows and eyes, and good facial features, but his face looked like it had been rolled in dust and mud. His black hair that went past his neck looked unkempt and looked slightly curled, blocking his face. His bare ankles showed a white complexion.

Shen Yan’s eyes turned to the coffee table in front of the sofa. On the table were a few biscuit packaging bags whose printed words had blurred because of how old they were.

It was clear that the Omega was already trying hard to reduce his presence, curling up his body, occupying only the space that was suitable for him on the sofa. However, this was unbearable for the man with a severe obsession with cleanliness.

After seeing the Omega’s condition clearly, Shen Yan’s cold expression turned completely gloomy.

So dirty.
