A few days later——
Earth Alliance First Sector
Snake Cave
"I understand. I will be careful. I think the Lord Snake will be fine."
"Thank you for your concern."
"Pheromone therapy...I will..."
"Yes, today... I volunteered, and I have no objection to this matter. Because I also hope that I can succeed in differentiation as soon as possible, so that Mr. Si's pheromone dependence should also be improved..."
…
"Okay, see you at the next treatment then."
Sitting on the comfortable and soft sofa in Miyuan, Su Liang felt muscle soreness because his body was too tense. After finally finishing the call with the medical officer, he breathed a sigh of relief, with a little cold sweat on his forehead.
The actual combat exercise of clearing out space pirates at the alliance border, code-named "Spring Outing", was successfully completed a few days ago.
The victims who had managed to escape from Farm N with great difficulty had regained basic emotional stability thanks to Su Liang's day and night efforts. After making sure that their bodies could withstand the long-distance flight, the Snake Cave's spacecraft left some combat units behind, while the main body took them quickly back to the First Star Sector for further treatment and investigation into what they had suffered.
This "spring outing" full of accidents ended successfully. After the Omegas who were basically in stable condition were handed over to the professionals at the Snake Cave Center, Su Liang, who had just visited the place, could finally put down the burden on his shoulders and relax a little.
This should have been a happy thing, but the situation was a little special for Su Liang.
Without a job, one has to face certain things that were originally put behind work in reality, such as the rare pheromone addiction of the leader of the snake cave, snake master Lu Taipan.
When they were still in Area 48, because the two were actually still on a mission, they did not receive treatment too frequently except for the first time. At least, neither of them had any more "deep" pheromone release treatments.
But after returning to the snake cave, this matter had to be put on the agenda.
The senior medical officer on the spacecraft even provided Su Liang with quite a few remote guidance via video calls.
Of course, this kind of guidance is not routine procedure.
The older beta medical officer originally had some confidence in the Lord of the Snake Cave.
At that time, Su Liang was still on the spacecraft and often had to go to the medical officer for routine check-ups. It was during a certain examination that Su Liang, out of excessive worry, asked the medical officer concernedly about Lu Taipan's pheromone addiction.
After learning how Lu Taipan relayed his symptoms and pain to the confused teenager, the medical officer's trust in someone seemed to have completely shattered overnight.
So much so that after that, this nagging and worrying medical officer kept trying to remind Su Liang in every way possible to be careful about Lu Taipan's situation.
He even looked worried.
Well, you could also say it's a guilty conscience.
"The situation between the two of you is indeed very complicated. If it weren't for Master Su Liang, you really needed an Alpha pheromone that is highly compatible with you to assist your physical development, I would strongly suggest that you separate from Master Snake."
When the two of them went to the medical room to listen to treatment advice, the medical officer had a stern face and spoke to Su Liang word by word in front of Lu Taipan.
Su Liang didn't know how to comfort this overly worried medical officer.
In fact, he felt that Mr. Si was completely different from other Alphas. The boy, who had experienced the snake master losing control many times, knew very well how strong this man's self-control was.
But no matter what, pheromone addiction is a fact, and it is also a fact that it needs joint treatment.
Even though it was a bit embarrassing, Su Liang still signed the treatment project confirmation form with a blushing face.
The first step in treatment is moving.
Yes, Su Liang will live with Lu Taipan for the next period of time.
It sounds a little ridiculous, but it is one of the official treatment recommendations given by the Medical Department.
The long-term sense of stability brought by living together and the comfort brought by the mutual blending of pheromones can very effectively alleviate the emotional problems caused by AO pheromone addiction.
During this process, Su Liang can also receive Alpha pheromones floating in the air through his skin and breathing, promoting the development of his body in a natural and gentle way.
Today is the day Su Liang goes to live with Lu Taipan.
"Living together...?"
Su Liang talked to himself, looking a little dazed.
He returned to his room and put the packed daily necessities and clothes into the suitcase. However, when he bent down, Su Liang couldn't help but stop moving because of a sudden soreness from deep inside his body.
"Master Su Liang, the time has come. Are you ready?"
The earnest voice of the artificial intelligence came from the headset. Su Liang straightened up suddenly, and his voice suddenly became calm and quiet: "Okay, we can set off."
As if that subtle feeling of emptiness and soreness had never existed, Su Liang walked down the stairs calmly. He pushed open the door and prepared to go directly to Lu Taipan's residence according to the schedule.
"Sorry, Mr. Butler, I kept you waiting..."
Su Liang said a little absentmindedly, then raised his head and met a pair of dark and deep eyes.
He nearly bit his tongue.
"Mr. Mi?"
The person who came to greet him was not the butler, but Lu Taipan himself.
Today, Lu Taipan was not wearing combat uniform, but a standard military uniform that seemed a little too formal for everyday wear. The pure black material, the tight belt, and the hard black combat boots that completely wrapped the calves had extremely smooth lines, perfectly outlining the unusually tall figure of the Lord of the Snake Cave, as well as the kind of figure that combined toughness, strength, and agility, like a wild leopard.
The long black hair was draped behind the man, loosely tied together by a silver hairpin.
Although most of his face was covered by the black alloy bite stopper, under the golden-red backlight of the setting sun, the Lord of the Snake Cave still looked incredibly handsome and evil.
...It's just like the kind of demon that knocks on people's doors during evil times and steals away souls.
Lu Taipan looked at the surprise and trance that flashed across the face of the young man in front of him with satisfaction.
Just because of Su Liang's eyes at this moment, he also felt that his behavior of ruthlessly depriving a certain artificial intelligence job opportunity was very wise.
"I'll pick you up."
Lu Taipan said lightly, then took the luggage from Su Liang's hand and held it in his own hand.
The slightly light weight made the man frown slightly.
But when he thought that the young man would have to stay in his place for a long time, Lu Taipan didn't say anything more.
Next, all of Lu Taipan's actions seemed particularly logical. While Su Liang was still not able to come to his senses, he naturally took Su Liang towards the aircraft.
It's like a considerate husband bringing his little wife home after she returns from an outing.
"Thank you so much for picking me up."
Su Liang felt a little flustered for some reason. He followed the man in a low voice and said.
Lu Taipan looked straight ahead, but the corners of his lips slightly raised for a moment.
“It should be.”
His tone was also very calm, as if the person who spent ten times more time than usual choosing this uniform today was not him.
However, after a brief pause, the Lord of the Snake Cave finally revealed a hint of irrepressible joy in his tone.
"After all, you are my roommate from now on."
…
Although he was recuperating in the medical center most of the time, Lu Taipan did have a real residence in the snake cave.
The secret living base code-named "Throne" is located in the deepest part of the Snake Cave. It can also be said to be the most heavily guarded place in the entire First Star Region.
Under the control of artificial intelligence, the aircraft flew steadily on the route to the "throne".
At this moment, Lu Taipan took out a black metal square box from his arms. The square box is made of metal, with a faint blue glow on the surface, and it does not look like an ordinary product from Earth. After entering a series of complex commands, the seemingly tightly closed small box suddenly opened up like a flower, revealing the microscopic suspension force field inside.
Inside the spherical halo, there is a translucent object floating that looks like a miniature snake.
"What's this?"
Su Liang looked at the "little snake" and asked.
Lu Taipan carefully took out the translucent "little snake".
"This is the 'Snake Scale'." Lu Taipan said, "You can think of it as a pass to the 'Throne'. Of course, it has some other uses, which you will discover later."
The man's tone was particularly gentle at this time.
And the look he gave Su Liang became particularly profound.
"Your information and permissions have been entered here. From now on, you can use it to enter and exit the Snake Cave freely. You can also call on the mecha, all the weapon systems of the Snake Cave, and the automatic protection system, which will also provide you with the first level of protection when attacked."
A smile appeared at the corner of Lu Taipan's mouth.
"I asked the engineering department to prepare long ago. However, there is still one last step before the 'snake scales' can be officially bound to you. It needs to collect your biological information, and then it will be fixed in your body in the form of a nanorobot. See-"
Lu Taipan raised his hand and tapped his earlobe.
As his fingertips passed over the originally smooth skin, a few bright red marks suddenly appeared.
"Generally, we implant the pass in the earlobe. Of course, you can also choose the fingertip. But no matter where you choose, there will only be a little stinging and bleeding, which will heal on its own soon."
"Then I'll choose my finger."
If it's the earlobe, I can't do it myself. Please, Lu Taipan is still a bit too ambiguous.
Fingertips would be more convenient.
Su Liang naturally chose a more secure position.
After saying that, Su Liang was about to raise his hand to take the "snake scales", but then his movements froze.
It turned out that the moment he nodded, Lu Taipan had already raised his hand and pinched his middle finger.
The next moment, the handsome and tall man in formal attire left his seat, and as if to facilitate movement, he knelt on one knee, with Su Liang's hand in his palm.
He raised his head and looked at Su Liang seriously. He was very close to Su Liang, so close that Su Liang could even clearly see his own reflection in those black eyes.
The breath of Alpha is becoming particularly warm and fragrant.
The damp moss and burning incense seemed to be there and not there, and the cold breath of ice and snow was like an invisible giant snake, tightly wrapping around the frail boy in the aircraft.
Lu Taipan's fingertips were slightly cold, but Su Liang felt his body suddenly become hot.
"let me?"
The slightly hoarse whisper seemed to be asking sincerely.
Su Liang's eyelashes fluttered, and after a pause of a few seconds, he heard himself speak.
"Thank you for your help."
The moment the words fell, Su Liang felt a very slight pain in his fingertips, as if being lightly pricked by a cold needle. Then the chill instantly disappeared in his pounding heartbeat and slightly panicked breathing.
The "snake scales" have been implanted into his body. Just as Lu Taipan said, the wound didn't hurt at all, just a little bleeding. But perhaps because Su Liang's fingertips were too white, the drop of blood became particularly conspicuous when it seeped out of the wound.
Before he could react, Su Liang saw Lu Tai climb on his lap and suddenly lean down.
The Alpha's scent fell on his fingertips.
The metal of the bite stopper was cold and hard.
But there was still a wet and hot touch coming out from the gap in the metal, greedily sweeping away the drop of blood that seeped out when the pass was implanted.
…
"disinfect."
Lu Taipan raised his head, and this posture allowed Su Liang to clearly see the rolling of the man's throat.
In the dim light, the man's eyes were surprisingly bright.
Even though he knew there was a bite stopper, Lu Taipan couldn't do anything to himself. But just being looked at by Lu Taipan made Su Liang start to tremble slightly because of that beast-like gaze.
The back of his neck began to feel hot, and his body...that embarrassing soreness deep inside his body once again came to cause trouble.
For some reason, he recalled the worried instructions given by Medical Officer Beta.
[The snake owner's self-control is indeed amazing, but... if the target is you, he may not be so trustworthy. 】
[You must be careful!] 】
Just when Su Liang began to get nervous, Lu Taipan suddenly sat back in his original position and distanced himself from him.
"Sorry, actually it's probably because of my pheromone addiction. I couldn't help it just now."
Lu Taipan quickly changed his words and began to apologize sincerely.
The tone is calm.
Seeing that Lu Taipan had restrained his aura that carried a strong sense of invasion and returned to his original restrained and polite appearance, Su Liang exhaled suddenly. He had been holding his breath involuntarily until just now.
The boy curled up his fingers belatedly, and the touch of the man's tongue seemed to still remain on his fingertips.
Su Liang glared at the man with a red face.
No matter how sincere and genuine the other person appears, some things still cannot be concealed.
…
“…Be careful next time.”
But it was not until a long time later that the boy's voice was heard from the aircraft.
