Chapter 58: Because… I am also a thousand

Translated by Addis of Exiled Rebels Scanlations

Editor: Mimosa

 

If a person was very powerful, then it was easy for those around him to generate a feeling that he is useless, such as Luo Futu at this time. In the past four hundred years, he rarely produced this feeling, he usually made others feel useless.

Zhou Yan flew A1 all the way to the location of the incident, and he was just in time as the head of the Lurian had not yet had time to make a show of power. Even before it found a crowded place, the A1 rushed over with a knife-like hand to split the top of the head. From the six organs from its stomach, the fishy smell suddenly drifted far away.

Luo Futu sat in the cockpit watching the scene and slightly inhaled before he sat and leaned on the back of the passenger seat.

“Spectacular.”

Zhou Yan subconsciously frowned. A1 obediently made a shaking motion to shake out the liquid stuck on his hands, “Disgusting.”

Luo Futu laughed, “You’ve killed Lurians before, aren’t you used to it?”

“Who would get used to this kind of thing?”

Zhou Yan said, as if suddenly remembering something, and made a side glance at Luo Futu, “I think I read in some doctor’s research paper before that Lurian’s brain waves are actually very close to humans. His research samples were naturally people on the Dense Cloud Planet, and basically everyone on our planet can drive a mecha, so I was wondering if implanting Lurian brain cells into the human body would give ordinary people the ability to drive a mecha.”

Luo Futu’s face was a bit unpleasant, “I advise you not to.”

Zhou Yan looked at him expressionlessly, “Wait a minute, I’ll go get some samples.”

“….”

Luo Futu sighed helplessly and propped his hand on the side of his face before he looked out. He felt that the problem now was not at all whether the experiment would work or not, but how to persuade others to implant these things of unknown origin after the experiment was successful. Even he, who had shared memories with Zhou Yan, couldn’t accept such a thing, how could others accept it?

Luo Futu stared at Zhou Yan when the latter had already returned with the “sample”. The mecha’s hatch opened and a cold wind swept in, taking away the heat inside the hatch. The moment he saw him, Luo Futu’s attention was not on the “sample”, but on something else.

“When is your estrus period?”

Zhou Yan was stunned by the question, and then gave him a blank look, as if he did not want to hear these words.

Luo Futu hooked his lips towards him and stretched out his hand, pulling Zhou Yan up, “Recently the smell of pheromone on you has become much lighter, are you using inhibitors again?”

Zhou Yan took his hand and climbed up the mecha, but did not answer Luo Futu’s question. The latter said to himself, “When did you do it? You obviously stay with me every day, but I have not seen you do it….”

“Why would I let you see it?”

Zhou Yan lowered his head to pull the lever, and Luo Futu obediently put his hand on the back of his neck, his fingers pressed on it while gently rubbing, “You simply do not need to use that now.”

He has already marked him, so why bother?

Zhou Yan was rubbed by him and shivered, “…. Hands off! How can you bother the driver like that? You should learn traffic safety.”

“Pfft.”Luo Futu came up to his ear, “So you’re disturbed? You’re not very stable.”

Zhou Yan glanced at him expressionlessly, “If you want to walk back by yourself, just say so.”

“….” So aggressive, he really was nearing his estrus stage, right?

Zhou Yan simply pulled his hand out of his collar, and Luo Futu reminded him about the estrus period…. It seemed that his estrus period was approaching, and the improvised inhibitors in his hands would probably not be very effective.

Zhou Yan did not have the ability to make absolutely effective inhibitors in such a short time. He used to use those with a strong and stable effect. Even during the estrus period, as long as he locked himself in the basement and slept for three or four days, there would be no problem. Now the conditions were limited, and the inhibitors used by Zhou Yan only appeared to be effective, but they were useless for him in the estrus stage. In fact, compared to the estrus stage, Zhou Yan was more worried about Luo Futu’s condition. If he remembered correctly, in the middle of each month, the curse would attack him internally. It was not far from the middle of the month, but this person…. But this man never mentioned this to him.

After Zhou Yan started the mecha, he hesitantly looked at Luo Futu, “Are you…. Are you okay?”

Luo Futu still had his hands on him, and because he had been scolded by Zhou Yan, he didn’t dare to move any more, so he just wrapped his arms loosely around him. His expression was relaxed, and at first he didn’t even react to what Zhou Yan was saying, but the two of them now had a heart-to-heart, and Luo Futu soon understood what Zhou Yan was worried about. He was a little uncomfortable because he had never discussed this matter openly with anyone before this. This was Luo Futu’s weakness and a scar in his heart, so how could he possibly bring it up for discussion?

The smile on Luo Futu’s face showed a hint of unnaturalness, “It’s nothing.”

“Don’t be shy about it. After four hundred years, there is no clear solution?”

Luo Futu raised his eyebrows, “It can only be suppressed with spiritual power, before my power was not enough to suppress it and it boils in my bones and blood day after day, those days are also over, then it happened only in the middle of the month…. The curse is the strongest at this time. Now it’s fine, just once a month.”

Zhou Yan was a bit depressed – he was right, once a month, Luo Futu’s situation was much drier than his own estrus period, which stretched for a long time and was plagued by pheromone. An omega’s estrus period was very much like the length of estrus in animals, there was a period of period of time where they would be plagued by hormones. Although they were only really plagued by pheromone for seven days to the point of not being able to live normally, the rest of the time would be very uncomfortable.

“Find a place to come out after a while, when we both have problems together, then it will look good.”

Zhou Yan, who had been torn in his heart for half a day, suddenly said this, and Luo Futu reacted for a moment before understanding what he was talking about, smiling a little wistfully, “What do you mean?”

“Of course, I mean don’t go back to the mine for the time being, when I make the results of the experiment, give it to Gabriel to mobilize them to transplant the warp, I am originally a researcher, dealing with people and promoting the product is not something I used to do.”

He said suddenly a little angry, his two eyebrows slightly standing up. His eyebrows were very beautiful, the ends of his eyebrows tapered in a very fairy-like way. When doing this expression with his eyebrows slanting into the temples, he appeared like an unsympathetic fairy. Zhou Yan looked at Luo Futu, “Or you come? But also, you are the best at compelling people, you can be a sales leader in our place.”

“Can you not mock me for one day?”

Zhou Yan wanted to not mock him, but he knew what Luo Futu was thinking. They had to find a place away from the crowd to spend this most difficult time. Luo Futu knew exactly that the two of them would be alone together, that’s why he teased him so much. He should have said to show him some respect, but Luo Futu really didn’t say anything disrespectful, and it was too strange to suddenly say such things to warn him.

In short, Zhou Yan was annoyed and angry.

Luo Futu did not realize the seriousness of the problem, but still persistently flirted with him. He came over and put his arm around Zhou Yan’s shoulders, “What kind of place do you like? I actually have a lot of applicable caves….”

Zhou Yan interrupted him coldly, “When the time comes, we will each find a place and not disturb each other.”

“….”

Zhou Yan saw him defeated, and his heart finally hurt. This bastard…. This bastard…. He’s not saying it, but he’s actually feeling it in his heart!

“I’m not sure you’re alone. I used to live quite well on my own in the basement, I don’t need you to be uneasy.”

Luo Futu froze for a long time before he leaned back in the passenger seat and let out a long sigh as if he was angry again.

Well, he now understood, he also knew that he was wrong. From now on, he would never tease Zhou Yan when he was feeling shy, otherwise it would easily turn into this kind of situation. This degree was really difficult to grasp, because sometimes he was shy and still teasing, but sometimes well…. It would turn out like this.

The mecha parked outside Zhou Yan’s house, and Zhou Yan did not speak. His face seemed to have a layer of frost. Since the accident where both of their neurons contacted, Luo Futu learned to see the essence through the phenomenon – looking at his current expression of strangers, it was very scary, but Zhou Yan was inside…. Just puffed up, like an inflatable blowfish.

–Don’t laugh out loud, or he’ll be finished.

After Zhou Yan stopped the mecha, he turned around and pushed open the hatch to go down, but Luo Futu grabbed his wrist and pulled him back. “Are you really going to ignore me to death?”

Zhou Yan looked at him expressionlessly, “Why does the High Priest say that?”

Luo Futu said seriously, “Whether you need it or not, I do need company.”

“You can easily get over it, what do you need company for? Oh yes, you have a right guardian, and your left guardian, summon them back.”

Luo Futu’s expression became more and more serious, “They are alphas, and not much to my liking. In front of me, they can only be used as a sandbag. And even if they are…. I don’t fully trust them, and I’m afraid I’ll kill people around me.”

Zhou Yan didn’t buy it, “Then take your time, you’ve been through this for 400 years, and now you suddenly need company?”

Luo Futu was waiting for him to say this, and he immediately pointed at him in shock, “You….”

“….”

“Do you know how I’ve been suffering for the past 400 years? It’s not that I don’t need company, I don’t have anyone around me. Or is it that in your eyes, my heart is made of iron and stone, and it won’t hurt even if you poke it at will.”

Zhou Yan regretted it when he said those words, and looking at Luo Futu’s expression, he seemed a bit hurt.

….

No, he was very hurt!

Zhou Yan licked his lips nervously, “I didn’t mean that….”

Luo Futu took a deep breath, and then turned his face aside. He didn’t go down to the mecha and ignored him with a frown and a pitiful look. He really got a great deal from this face, it was so appropriate to make such an expression as he looked so fragile that he seemed breakable at any time.

Zhou Yan was silent for a long time before he went over to take his hand. Luo Futu lightly withdrew his hand and dodged. Zhou Yan hurriedly grabbed his wrist and pulled his arm into his arms, “Okay, okay, I’ll stay with you, okay? From now on, I will accompany you.”

Luo Futu said coldly, “No, I don’t want to force you.”

“I’m not being forced.”

“In fact, you dislike me in your heart, you dislike my trouble.”

“I don’t…. What are you talking about?” Zhou Yan said and pulled his arm, “Come on, go home, it’s cold in here.”

Luo Futu looked at him sorrowfully, “I’ve been pestering you, you’re actually annoyed with me.”

Zhou Yan glanced at him, “I’m annoyed with you, and I let you mark me.”

“…. Didn’t I force you to do that?”

“High Priest has misplaced his position, who gave you the confidence to force me?” Luo Futu was hesitant to follow him when he heard Zhou Yan shouting at him, “You have two seconds to come out now, if not, I’ll really ignore you.”

…. When did he figure out he was acting? He clearly felt that Zhou Yan’s heart had softened. Luo Futu hurriedly jumped off the mecha, and he caught up with Zhou Yan before he asked, “You’re not going to back out, are you?”

Zhou Yan responded indifferently, “No.”

Luo Futu asked again, “Then did you willingly let me mark you? Not at all forced.”

Zhou Yan gave another “hmm”.

–He didn’t care, but now he’s asking, he’s asking for clarification.

“Why?”

“What why….”

Luo Futu was dissatisfied with Zhou Yan’s casual attitude so he grabbed his arm and pulled Zhou Yan back roughly. He did not allow him to escape anymore and let him look at him straight in the eyes, “I asked you, why are you willing to let me mark you?”

“….” Zhou Yan looked at him in silence for a long time and stammered, “Because….”

Luo Futu was about to lose his patience when he heard Zhou Yan whisper.

“Because, I am also a thousand.”
