Do Aliens Also Have Arranged Marriages? - Chapter 5

Chapter 5 – The Alien Butcher

Jian Ning slept very soundly.

After coming in the afternoon, he found that the owner of the house was not at home.

His stomach growled with hunger. Jian Ning hesitated for a moment and looked around the empty room.

There was no edible food anywhere within sight.

In order to live in harmony with this marriage partner whom he had never met before, Jian Ning tried her best to be polite and did not move things in the house.

He took out his food supplies from his backpack.

The backpack was filled with loose biscuits. After tearing open the packaging, most of them were in a crushed state and were too rough to swallow, but Jian Ning had already gotten used to it.

After traveling to this world for a year, he filled his stomach every day with these biscuits that have been expired for who knows how long.

Jian Ning sat on the sofa, chewing dry biscuit crumbs.

He had no expression on his face, looking as dead as alive.

Why after sneaking into the base, he can only eat these expired cookies!!

Oh, forget it, he just has to endure it.

Really delicious.

He hypnotized himself silently.

After filling his stomach, Jian Ning finally had the energy to do other things.

Jian Ning turned on the Star Brain and followed the staff’s previous instructions. After a blue light scanned his pupils, he was soon prompted that the registration was successful.

A light screen the size of a tablet was projected above the Star Brain:

【Welcome user 6486477 to log in】

Jian Ning tried to move his index finger on the light screen and found that the homepage was filled with some basic functions similar to those of a mobile phone. Skipping these, Jian Ning saw an APP called “Z Forum”.

He suddenly remembered the word “Omega” that Talia mentioned in the car before, and his gender in the little red book was inexplicably written as “Omega”, but until now, he still didn’t know what this word meant.

He tried to type “Omega” in the search box, and soon, a lot of posts popped up:

【My Omega wife seems to have another A, what should I do? 】

【Omega Second-hand Clothing Sales Concentration Camp】

【One Hundred Ways to Pursue Omega】

【Ranking of Omega’s favorite pheromones】

For a moment, Jian Ning was dazzled by all the strange titles, and he clicked on the first post.

【1L: Help! This is what I mean. My wife O and I have been childhood sweethearts and got married as soon as we reached marriageable age. But recently, I found out that he seems to be dating another A. What should I do? Should I talk to him about it?】

【2L: Stay calm, it’s time now, this is normal. A should be more generous and give other A’s a chance, okay?】

【3L: I agree with the above poster. The poster should be content to have O as his wife! Just pretend you don’t know about this kind of thing! 】

【4L: No, the above person has some problems with his values, right? Are people who cheat on their spouse so arrogant now?】

【5L: I bet that the 4th floor will remain single for life.】

A huge quarrel broke out on the floor below.

“…”

Jian Ning took a look and found that all the replies were anonymous. He skipped the complicated emotional entanglements in the main post and asked directly at the bottom:

【167L: Excuse me, what is Omega?】

Someone quickly responded:

【168L: Is the person upstairs playing with abstraction?】

【169L: …How old is the guy above? Do schools in the base no longer teach physiology?】

【170L: Omega… Of course they are sweet and soft, the wife that all A’s will fuck hard in their dreams every day!】

The subsequent replies gradually developed in an improper direction.

Jian Ning’s expression changed again and again, and he vaguely realized something.

Until finally a kind-hearted person sent a message that seemed to be copied from a textbook. The huge rock hanging above Jian Ning’s heart instantly smashed his fragile heart into pieces.

Jian Ning read it several times and his eyelids began to tremble unnaturally.

After being in this world for so long, he finally realized what kind of world he had come to.

Simply put, in this world, male and female are only the primary gender, and everyone’s secondary gender is further divided into Alpha, Beta and Omega.

Beta is similar to normal humans in his previous world, but their physical fitness is only at an average level, and their fertility is low.

Alpha and Omega are like some kind of alienated branches. They have glands on the back of their necks that emit pheromones with different smells. Alpha and Omega with a high degree of pheromone matching will have a strong attraction to each other.

Alpha has stronger physical fitness and mental strength. High-level A can naturally suppress low-level Alpha or Beta with mental strength. The high concentration of pheromones released will lure Omega into the estrus period.

Omegas are physically fragile, but have a very high pregnancy rate and possess the ability to soothe the mental strength of Alphas.

Before the catastrophe, the population ratio of Alpha and Omega was equal, and most of Omega were in a disadvantaged position.

But in the world after the catastrophe, Alphas with stronger physical fitness accounted for the majority of the surviving population, while the fragile Omegas mostly died in the mouths of those alien species outside.

Therefore, the population ratios in the base vary greatly, and the surviving Omegas, although still fragile, have become extremely scarce and precious.

There are even some Omegas in the base who do not want to get married. Without them having to do anything, a large number of Alphas are willing to provide various resources just to get a little bit of pheromone comfort from the Omegas.

After reading this, Jian Ning’s face was bleak and his worldview was greatly impacted.

He touched the back of his neck. Under the flat and smooth skin, he had never realized that there was something called a gland.

‘Omega? Estrus? Conception?’

‘…You must be kidding.’

After a moment of trance, Jian Ning exited the post, and was very skeptical about his so-called “Omega” gender.

His hand trembled and he accidentally clicked on another post on the homepage.

The post title only contains the word “Butcher”, but it is very popular.

Jian Ning looked down absentmindedly and saw the latest floor that was rapidly refreshing on the screen:

【985L: “Butcher” is taking people on a mission again today?】

【986L: I think so. I seemed to see them go out today.】

【987L: Hey, will we ever be able to kill all the aliens? There is still no conclusion to the matter of Base 107.】

【988L: Hehe, the Central Base will end up the same sooner or later. Let’s destroy it quickly. Everyone will become aliens in the end anyway.】

【989L: @Administrator, report the extreme remarks above.】

【995L: But speaking of which, have you heard of that rumor?】

【996L: Which one? 】

【997L: The military district is conducting random experiments, and the extermination troops are all aliens? This has been circulating in the base recently. A friend of mine once told me quietly that he saw with his own eyes that the “Butcher” had obvious alien characteristics…】

【998L: I accidentally opened this post. What is this post talking about? What butcher?】

【999L: The information above is too outdated, it’s just “that person”…】

【1000L: ? ? ? Who?】

When Jian Ning thought of someone who was called “Butcher”, the first person he thought of was the person he had met before.

It was a day not long after Jian Ning came to this world.

He sensed the danger and hid in an extremely small and secluded hiding place in advance.

Hearing the sharp screams of the terrible aliens outside as if they were undergoing some cruel torture, Jian Ning, who was hiding in the ruins, trembled with fear.

Jian Ning huddled himself into a ball out of fear, not daring to look up to see what was happening outside. But he could vaguely guess that the scene must have been very shocking for him to see.

When everything was over, the alien species outside were completely silent.

After a brief silence, a man’s voice was heard outside. He seemed to be communicating with other people through a walkie-talkie or something. The voice was so cold and sharp that it was hard to imagine that it was the same person who had just killed the alien in such a terrible way.

Curiosity drove Jian Ning to take a look outside secretly——

A pair of cold amber pupils instantly noticed something, as if they penetrated countless obstacles and looked at him.

Jian Ning almost thought that he was discovered at that time. His heart was so nervous that it was about to jump out of his chest. He froze in place and dared not move.

But after staring in his direction for a while, the man indifferently withdrew his gaze.

After the man left, Jian Ning hid for a while. After making sure that no one would come back to attack him, he carefully climbed out of his hiding spot. The scene outside was unforgettable for him.

The ground was littered with the remains of sliced and chopped alien bodies.

He had no doubt that if he had been discovered by the man at that time, he would probably have suffered the same fate.

Coming back to his senses, Jian Ning suddenly saw that in the latest reply someone had sent a photo.

He clicked it, and only had time to see clearly that the man was wearing a black combat uniform, with the zipper pulled up to the highest position, covering his slender, cold white neck. He had an embedded black earphone on his left ear, and his cold amber pupils were looking towards the camera.

The next second, the entire post was deleted.

! ! !

Jian Ning didn’t see the man’s face clearly at that time, but the pair of icy amber eyes seemed to be deeply engraved in his memory.

Sure enough, the scary man he had met was the “Butcher” mentioned in the post.

Jian Ning just looked at the photo, and the fear he felt at that time seemed to rise again.

He must be careful not to run into this person in the base.

Jian Ning then browsed through the forum again. The excessive amount of information had already given him too much of a shock, and the tiredness from not having a good rest before came up again.

He curled up on the sofa, turned off his brain, closed his eyes and fell asleep again.

Until a cold breath suddenly appeared.

Jian Ning woke up in shock.

In the darkness, he vaguely saw a tall figure standing at the entrance, seemingly looking at him coldly.

Jian Ning got goosebumps all over his body and climbed up from the sofa with a “whoosh”.
