"You're not allowed to talk nonsense."

The person buried their face in the shoulder and neck spoke in a muffled voice, with a faint sob in their tone.

"water."

Zhou Siyu didn't want to comfort his injured friend, whose neck was practically steaming and he was having trouble breathing. Yu Wei was still holding him tightly, almost breaking his ribs.

As if receiving a command, Yu Wei quickly released Zhou Siyu, took out drinking water from the storage system, and handed it to Zhou Siyu's lips.

Having just gone through such an ordeal, he felt completely exhausted and all he wanted was to find a place to get a good night's sleep.

Yu Wei fed him half a bottle in one go, blinked at Zhou Siyu, and cautiously asked, "I added some functional ingredients to the water, does it still hurt?"

Looking at the pitiful-looking man in front of her, who resembled a big dog with its tail drooping, Zhou Siyu couldn't help but tease him: "It hurts so much!"

"Really?" Yu Wei sat on the ground, placed Zhou Siyu's head on his lap, and massaged his temples. "Are you still in pain?"

"It doesn't hurt anymore." Zhou Siyu propped herself up and kissed Yu Wei's face. "It hasn't hurt for a long time. I was just lying to you."

Yu Wei nodded emphatically, gently hugged Zhou Siyu, and kissed him on the forehead. "Don't lie to me, I'm scared."

He was genuinely afraid—afraid that Zhou Siyu would leave, and even more afraid that something might happen to Zhou Siyu because of him.

Zhou Siyu suddenly saw something incredible, patted Yu Wei on the shoulder, and pointed behind him: "How much pheromones did you just release?"

"Um?"

Yu Wei turned his head in confusion, and a large group of people walked towards him from not far away.

Upon closer inspection, they would find that this group of people resembled unconscious puppets, with lifeless eyes, twisted limbs, and stiff movements like zombies.

Their faces all wore the same expression: intoxicated, obsessed, their bloodshot eyes like those of a wolf that had been starving for a long time, ready to devour its prey.

The person in front lunged at Yu Wei, but was kicked away. The person seemed to feel no pain, got up, and continued to lunge at Yu Wei.

The air was filled with pheromones of various scents, making people dizzy and lightheaded.

"Walk!"

As more and more people rushed towards them, Zhou Siyu patted Yu Wei's shoulder, leaned against the wall and stood up unsteadily. He hugged Yu Wei's waist, spread his wings and flew into the air, landing on a surviving tree.

Actually, Yu Wei hadn't released any more pheromones since Zhou Siyu woke up; he had just released too many, and they couldn't dissipate immediately.

What happened to them?

“I don’t know.” Zhou Siyu shook her head. “Their behavior seems to resemble that of an Omega in their fertile period, but…”

"Logically speaking, it's impossible for so many Omegas to enter their susceptible period at the same time."

“They were fine just now.” Yu Wei frowned. “They seem to have been poisoned.”

Fragments flashed through his mind, and Yu Wei felt a chill run down his spine. The way these people looked resembled how he looked after being infected by the Kao virus.

"Poisoning?" Zhou Siyu stroked his chin. "Never mind the cause for now, check if you have any usable medicine in your pharmacy."

Yu Wei searched for a long time, then looked up, "There are no inhibitors or sedatives..."

"What use are you?" Zhou Siyu rolled her eyes, tossed Yu Wei a short distance away, left a "wait here" message, and flew back into the air above the crowd.

The intense fragrance of orchids overpowered all other scents, and the powerful pressure gradually calmed the frenzied crowd.

The pheromones of high-level Omegas have an innate deterrent and oppressive power over low-level Omegas; the king's aura is enough to make all low-level Omegas submit.

His amber pupils slowly turned deep purple, and his clear, cold voice was like celestial music from deep space, majestic and holy.

"Disperse."

Zhou Siyu waved his hand slightly, and the gathered crowd dispersed like puppets on strings.

The orchid, which can induce hallucinations, is not necessarily a poison.

“Their condition is very abnormal.” Zhou Siyu walked to Yu Wei’s side and leaned wearily on his shoulder. “Did the personnel who came to meet them have medical personnel with them?”

“Yes, the spaceship can provide testing equipment.” Yu Wei nodded, put his arm around Zhou Siyu’s shoulder, and said, “Sleep, I’m right here beside you.”

Zhou Siyu nodded, closed his eyes, and suddenly felt a throbbing pain in his head, as if a hand was stirring it.

"Hold on a little longer, I'll go get you some medicine."

After what had just happened, Yu Wei dared not release pheromones casually and could only hold him.

Opening the remote transmission panel, Yu Wei quickly entered the required medicine. Lin Ling had previously extracted some of it from his blood, which should be usable.

Fortunately, there was still one vial of blood extract, which was quickly delivered to Zhou Siyu via long-distance transmission. After using it on Zhou Siyu, her condition seemed to improve slightly.

"pain……"

Zhou Siyu curled up in Yu Wei's arms, tears streaming down her face, quickly soaking Yu Wei's clothes.

"Hold on a little longer, the spaceship will be here soon."

Looking at the fragile Zhou Siyu, Yu Wei felt heartbroken.

But there was nothing he could do except offer useless words of comfort.
