Chapter 117

The Pheromones and the Pheromone aura they created have been resolved.

He, Earthling, now faces the third step in disguising himself as an Alpha: no Heat Period?

It doesn't matter.

Qin Su looked in the mirror and manually pinched the area on the back of his neck where there were no Glands, causing it to swell.

When pinching, Qin Su was particular about the force and method to avoid leaving obvious pinch marks. He used his fingertips to pull the skin around the 'Gland' from the periphery towards the center.

The world has changed. Whether in the Real World or the Comic World, the world is a huge circle of friends where people share their lives anytime, anywhere. Naturally, different people post all sorts of content online.

In the Real World, some people post content online about coin making, handcrafting weapons, autopsies, shooting tutorials, and so on.

In the Comic World, even though the Heat Period is a very private matter in the traditional interstellar concept, countless Alphas and Omegas have carefully shared their feelings during the Heat Period, and even detailed descriptions of when Betas were overwhelmed by Alpha and Omega pheromones.

Thanks to his 'global network of friends', even though he actually had no idea what it felt like for an Alpha during their Heat Period, he found a great deal of 'detailed instructions' about Alphas during their Heat Period.

Qin Su, who had been 'reading and memorizing the entire text,' only put down his hand when he saw the 'Glands' showing the redness and swelling that the enthusiastic netizens had described.

Great, he pinched it until it turned red and warm.

Out of caution, Qin Su did not take his eyes off the 'Glands' in the mirror, observing them intently.

During the thirty-second observation period, Qin Su watched as the area he had pinched swelled up gradually softened and became less swollen than before.

Qin Su: "..."

This won't do; it doesn't resemble the description in the 'instruction manual' of 'the first three days of Alpha's Heat Period, during which the Glands are uncontrollable, causing high fever and swelling that won't subside.'

Qin Su's gaze shifted from the gradually fading redness on his skin in the mirror to his own hands.

It's all because he's ruthless towards others but meek and soft-hearted towards himself.

Adhering to the idea that 'using props directly eliminates the worry of not being able to be ruthless to oneself,' Qin Su turned and left the restroom. He opened the wall-mounted Refrigerated Cabinet and ran his fingers over the neatly arranged, densely packed syringes of various shapes and sizes. Qin Su finally selected and pulled out two tiny syringes, each three centimeters long and less than one centimeter in diameter.

Depending on the state, the concentration of Pheromones to be 'released' and the pressure to be created are different. The rows of densely packed 'Glands' in the refrigerator can cope with different situations.

He strode back to the mirror and pricked the center of his Gland 'Qin Su twice.

As the two-centimeter-long needle tip pierced the center of the 'Gland,' the entire dose of medication was injected through the deeply inserted needle tip. Clean.

The injection has an immediate effect; the wound is deepest in the center of the 'Gland,' and the redness and swelling on the skin surface naturally spread from the inside out.

Now he couldn't help it? Wouldn't he be exposed in front of his classmates? The bone-chilling cold emanating from the wound made Qin Su forcefully suppress the urge to shiver.

Qin Su pulled out the two used syringes, put them into the Waste Disposal Box, pressed the disposal button, and smelled a faint 'Alph' scent, which matched the description in the 'instruction manual' that a slight Pheromone scent would also occur after taking inhibitors.

He had originally planned to lightly spray some Pheromones on his body, but plans don't always go as expected.

In short, he is now in a situation where, after taking inhibitors, he has not only temporarily suppressed his Heat Period and can appear normally in front of his classmates without affecting them.

After completing the disguise, and with the time roughly as he had anticipated, Qin Su sat back in his chair, turned on his Optical Brain, and quickly reviewed all the data of the students in Class 6 of Class of 25 in the dormitory.

He made the Optical Brain "wake up" so early so that there would be no mishaps during the exchange between the two classes later, and to get a comprehensive understanding of the information of the students in Class 6 of Class of 25 in advance.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Qin Su endured the fact that even after more than an hour the effect hadn't diminished much. He estimated that the dosage of the two injections hadn't gone wrong and that he could withstand the cold weather today. He then applied the Alpha Pheromone Blocker Patch, left the dormitory with satisfaction, and headed to the location mentioned in the class schedule that the Class Advisor had posted in the group chat yesterday afternoon.

The Pheromones are fake, the Glands are fake, the inhibitors weren't administered, and there was no Heat Period. The only real thing is the Pheromone -blocking patch. Applying it is the same as not applying it at all.

As he walked, Qin Su noticed that the chill and slight Pheromone scent emanating from the 'Glands' on his body caused by the injection had not disappeared at all.

Having not seen their classmates for two months, most students arrived at the classroom early to meet their classmates beforehand.

Qin Su was used to arriving late, so he was already late for class. At this time, the entire Train was empty. After entering the Train, he looked around and saw that he was the only person on the entire Train.

Qin Su: "..."

It seems he won't be able to observe how the other students react after receiving inhibitor injections near their 'Heat Period' before officially meeting them.

At this moment, Qin Su deeply sympathized with the Alpha Pheromone Blocker Patch attached to the 'Gland' area.

Like it, the moment it was pasted, it searched everywhere for the source of the Pheromones in preparation to 'seal' it, but found nothing. It drew its sword and looked around, feeling lost.

--

CH-2902 Classroom.

Even today, even those who followed the trend and volunteered at Funeral Homes, working from beginning to end, still have different thoughts because of what they saw in the small Funeral Home, and their initial doubts remain unanswered.

Wanting to see Qin Su, in case someone from Class 6 asks Qin Su about the Funeral Home... With these buffs stacked up, even though He Muzhi said yesterday that today is Qin Su's Heat Period, there is a 90% chance that Qin Su will not appear. A small number of students from Class 6 of the Class of 25 and Class of 26 classes arrived at the classroom early.

As the start time of the class drew closer, everyone's eyes were drawn to the entrance, and the murmurs among them grew louder.

"How about we bet on whether Qin Su will come today?"

"Why gamble? Isn't it obvious? Today is Qin Su's Heat Period. He Muzhi Class 6 the Class of 26 cohort didn't come today."

"Support them? They keep saying that Qin Su cares about them and that their Class of 26 (Class 6) holds an unshakeable place in Qin Su's heart. In my opinion, it's all self-promotion, just like the hype on the StarNet. If Qin Su really cared about them, why would he spend an entire holiday with so many eyes watching and not a single person saw Qin Su at the Funeral Home where their Class 6) works?"

"It's said that He Muzhi, the person Qin Su is rumored to value most, has never even met Qin Su. Since he's not here today, the chances of Qin Su showing up are even slimmer."

The students of Class of 26, Class 6 listened to the loud crickets of the seniors from Class 6 of Class of 25, who were not holding back at all and seemed to be deliberately talking to them. They did not give in at all and retorted with even louder crickets.

With Qin Su gone, they couldn't let themselves be bullied.

"Are all the Class 6 of Class of 25 cohort jealous today? Why does the air smell so sour?"

"No, no, no, they clearly ate garlic and didn't rinse their mouths," Raymond said seriously. "Otherwise, how come everyone has such bad breath? You can smell the stench from far away. They have no personal hygiene at all and don't deserve to be near our fragrant Brother Su!"

"Oh, they're so envious! Qin Su has nothing to do with them, so the only way they can prove we're on the same level is by showing that the Class Monitor doesn't care about us. Hehe, how pathetic."

"I'm just being sarcastic; they'll never have our kind of luck in their lives, haha."

The two Class 6) went from loudly chirping with their mouths covered to face-to-face, separated by a channel, with each side keeping to their own boundaries, shouting at each other while Passageway.

The two homeroom Class Advisor had unknowingly found themselves on opposite sides, seemingly smiling and friendly at each other, but in reality, their eyes were filled with daggers.

'This concerns Qin Su; they will not allow any concessions.'

[It's strangely neat, but it looks like two packs of dogs arguing.]

[Dog: Is that polite?]

[Smells delicious? This little glutton can't live without food, can he? (laughing and crying)]

[Raymond's mouth is really going to annoy people. Look at the looks in the eyes of the previous students. Those guys who kept talking will probably get sacked after they finish.]

[We're all from Class 6, why are we fighting each other so fiercely?]

[We suspect this kid's been reading space-themed farming novels lately.]

[Classmates from different years, guys, give me a piece of your mind! We, Class 6 of 26, are not cowards!]

[What kind of personal agenda are you trying to pull in from the Real World? We're from completely different dimensions.]

With three seconds left until nine o'clock, Qin Su sensed that the cold air and Pheromone scent emanating from him hadn't diminished much. In order to make sure his classmates saw him before he entered the classroom and to create the illusion that his 'aura was so strong that they could sense him before he even arrived,' he didn't try to quiet his footsteps.

Tap, tap, tap...

The familiar footsteps, accompanied by a familiar chilling aura, caused the students from the two Class 6) who were cricketing enthusiastically and not giving an inch to each other to involuntarily shut up and turn their eyes to the entrance of the classroom.

The moment everyone looked over, their pupils all reflected the same image: a tall figure dressed in simple black, standing against the light...

"!!!"

The familiar figure that appeared in their field of vision as expected caused everyone's mind to go blank for a moment, and they forgot to speak.

The Fourth Military Academy did not have the custom of having all students meet with their Class Advisor before the start of the semester. Qin Su thought that this was the first time he had met with his classmates from Class 6) in two months.

He Muzhi, like himself during his Heat Period, was very likely absent today. Qin Su, unable to get any screen time from the main character, had to resort to Comic Capture Camera himself.

Only...

Can anyone tell him what the students are doing?

He appeared during his Heat Period precisely to surprise and unexpectedly satisfy the long-awaited expectations of Viewers both on and off screen, making everyone happy.

Moreover, today is an exchange meeting between students from two Class 6). As the Class Monitor of the Class of 26 Class 6), his presence here is equivalent to taking responsibility for the duties of the Class Monitor.

No one dislikes someone in a team who has a sense of responsibility and accountability.

The behavior that occurs even when he is taking suppressants during his Heat Period will only garner him more attention and favorability.

Qin Su was quite certain that he hadn't revealed his whereabouts beforehand, and now it was clear that people weren't welcoming him with open arms.

In this situation, Qin Su, who appeared calm and collected but whose mind was racing with thoughts, experienced a brief moment of mental blankness.

I'm a little confused.

Qin Su was filled with questions but couldn't find answers, yet his steps didn't falter for a moment. He seemed oblivious to the strange positioning of the two classes of students, appearing unmoved, but in reality, he had no choice but to respect the students' actions despite not understanding them. With a composed expression, he continued to walk unhurriedly towards the position of the Class Advisor, Zhang Minglang.

According to the assembly rules, as the Class Monitor, he was ultimately supposed to stand not far from Zhang Minglang to gather the students.

When in doubt, the Class Monitor should always move closer to the Class Advisor.

Upon seeing Qin Su, Zhang Minglang raised an eyebrow in surprise, then smiled and took two steps forward, "Qin Su!"

Anyone could hear the joy in Zhang Minglang's voice.

Zhang Minglang's voice brought the students, who thought it was a hallucination, back to their senses.

Their stiff necks were all turned toward Qin Su, and the suppressed excitement in their voices was no less than that of Zhang Minglang.

"Qin Su!"

"Ahhh, it really is Qin Su! My eyes aren't playing tricks on me! Qin Su has appeared during his Heat Period!"

"I knew it! Not being proactive in class means there's something wrong with your thinking! I guess I'm getting the benefit of arriving early today!"

"Why is the air a little chilly as Qin Su passes by? And there's a faint fragrance in the air..." After sniffing, Anthony's restrained voice was filled with ecstatic joy as he whispered eagerly, "It's Qin Su's Pheromones!"

"Did you guys see that? Brother Su's nape is clearly red and swollen, typical of his Heat Period. The first day of his Heat Period is really powerful; even with Pheromone- blocking patch, it can't be hidden. I want to touch it... cough cough, I mean, I want to feel how it's different from other Alphas Heat Periods."

"Oh dear, what are you saying? You've revealed your true thoughts, haven't you? I won't even call you out on it."

"Hehe, what does this mean? It means that Qin Su was willing to take suppressants and suffer so much just to meet us! Everyone who sees this will say that Qin Su cares about Class 6!"

While saying these boastful words, the students of Class of 26, Class 6 kept glancing at the students of Class 6 of Class of 25. Although they didn't say they were proud, their eyes were full of smugness.

According to the Fourth Military Academy's previous management practices, this year marks the second year of the Class of 26 of students' enrollment, Class of 25 of students, who were senior to the Class of 26, will need to interact with the Class of 26.

The interaction includes communication in all aspects, and the first 'refinement' for the Class of 26 of students to choose a major that matches their strengths and dreams for the next semester.

In order to avoid wasting time, in previous exchange activities between the previous and next cohorts of students, each cohort that had been 'the previous cohort' simply and crudely divided the students into classes.

If there are more classes from the previous year than classes from the next year, the remaining classes from the previous year will be randomly selected to be classes from the next year, and will interact with the students from the next year along with other classes from the previous year.

Conversely, multiple classes in the next grade will exchange with a single class in the previous grade.

Previously, the freshmen of Class 6 of Class of 25) scoffed at this rule. Now, they have benefited from this default rule and witnessed Qin Su appearing during his Heat Period. They were able to share a room with Qin Su, feel the chilling aura that Qin Su as he passed by, and smell the Alph scent that they could only detect by sniffing hard because they had been given inhibitors.

Now I find it sweet.

They were so happy that they could temporarily ignore the sarcastic remarks made by Class 6 of the Class of 26 cohort.

'With Qin Su here, they couldn't be bothered to even glance at anyone else.'

'Besides, there are two classes in this classroom now. It's uncertain whether Qin Su came for Class 6 of the Class of 26 or for their Class 6 of Class of 25.'

While everyone was fighting back, Raymond secretly sent a message to He Muzhi, telling them that Qin Su had appeared in the classroom after taking an inhibitor.

After sending the message, Raymond's eyes were immediately glued to Qin Su without a second's delay.

He posted it; whether He Muzhi sees it or not is entirely up to fate.

Hearing his classmates trying to lower their voices, but failing due to their overwhelming emotions, Qin Su, "..."

There's absolutely no need for that.

He did get an injection, but it wasn't an Alpha Suppressant; it was a drug with a slight Pheromone odor that also functioned as Cold Blast Bomb.

It's no surprise that his classmates felt cold, because after receiving two injections, his body was as cold as an icebox, so cold that he felt dizzy and his bones were trembling when he walked.

If he weren't so used to being resistant to freezing and had so much experience, he would have already crawled into the Hibernation Pod and electrocuted himself to end it all.

Unfortunately, he couldn't. In order to achieve a significant increase in his Life Points, he had to risk everything.

[!! Boss 1]

[Ahhh, my Su Bao! It's been so long, I've missed you so much!]

[I'm totally swearing to him! My boyfriend seems even more handsome, aloof, and charming now! (starry-eyed)]

[God knows how I've survived without you, sob sob sob! Baby 1, promise me you won't disappear for so long again, okay? I really miss you so much.]

[@He Muzhi, you miscalculated, that unlucky kid, hahaha]

The rumor that Qin Su didn't want Class 6 and disappeared at the start of the new semester has been debunked.

[To be honest, I also want to touch the back of this Boss 1's neck when he's in his Heat Period; it must be so hot!]

[It must be so uncomfortable to have such swelling and redness (take the opportunity to hug and comfort her)]

[Even those who need suppressants come here, so we don't need to elaborate on the status of Class 6, right? (Grinning)]

Am I the only one who thinks Qin Su looks unusually cold today? He seems very unapproachable.

[This is an Alpha in his Heat Period, he's very irritable. When has my boyfriend ever been easy to mess with? (covers mouth and giggles)]

While listening to his classmates' voices and glancing at the comments on the screen, Qin Su stepped forward and responded at the opportune moment after the Class Advisor finished speaking, "Teacher Zhang."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Su stopped at a normal social distance of two steps from the Class Advisor.

As Qin Su calmly scanned the students from the middle of the Passageway where the two groups of students were facing off.

He Muzhi did not come.

Qin Su entered the classroom at exactly nine o'clock. Thirty seconds had passed since then. Zhang Minglang nodded and smiled in response to Qin Su's voice, then said to Qin Su, "Have everyone gather together first."

"Good."

Qin Su responded calmly, then turned to face his classmates.

Zhang Minglang has become the Class Advisor of Class 6 of Class of 25.

The Class Monitor of Class 6 of Class of 25, also had his students gather together.

Seeing that Qin Su's gaze never lingered on the students of Class 6 of Class of 25, the students of Class of 26, Class 6 were slightly relieved.

The students of Class 6 of Class of 25 were not very happy. They secretly harbored a strong desire to beat Class 6, Class 6 of 26, when they ostensibly exchanged ideas but actually showed the younger students different professional operations, so that the students would realize the results of 'refining' their majors. They wanted to show Qin Su that if anything needed to be done, it was still better to have their experience.

After both classes finished assembling under the guidance of their respective Class Monitor, the two Class Advisor had already discussed the procedures for the following period.

Because Qin Su and Zhang Minglang were the oldest students here, the Class Advisor Class 6 of Class of 25, gave the opportunity to 'host the speech' to Zhang Minglang.

Zhang Minglang stood between the two class lines, habitually glancing at the two Class Monitor who were in the first position in the first row of their respective classes, near the middle gap, before turning his gaze away and speaking.

"Through our discussion, Teacher Lu and I agreed that today's exchange and interaction between students from different years will begin with Mecha Operation Drill."

"The rules are the same as in previous years. The two classes will be on opposing sides, and each class will have one minute to decide which student representative to send out for a PK."

"Each project, each class, and each student can only have one rehearsal opportunity."

"Students from both classes, please take your time to discuss and select suitable classmates. The Countdown begins."

As soon as Zhang Minglang finished speaking, without wasting a moment, he opened his personal Optical Brain interface, and the Green √ 60-second Countdown began to decrease steadily.

The time was short, and Class 6 of Class of 25 already had an experience. Logically speaking, they had already discussed the candidates in private. However, because of Qin Su, there was more than one person who was excellent in Mecha, so they inevitably started to compete for the position and expressed in low voices that they were more suitable to carry out the exercise.

The students of Class of 26 Class 6, naturally knew who was the best in their class, and that was Qin Su.

But here's the problem: their class is outstanding in every aspect, the absolute top student in their class. They're unsure whether Qin Su, currently in Heat Period, will make a move this time, and if so, on which project?

These all need to be confirmed with Qin Su.

Filled with many questions, the moment the Countdown began, their eyes fell on Qin Su without any hesitation.

Heat Period, emotions fluctuate greatly, and various aspects of the body are easily affected, even impacting judgment and actions. It is completely unsuitable to carry out any activities, which is why the Heat Period is generally considered a holiday, and you can simply not come without asking for leave.

Faced with the inquiring gazes of his classmates, Qin Su did not hesitate, and calmly declared, "I'll do it."
