Chapter 1: Becoming A When I woke up, the artificial idiot said that I changed from O to A. …
"Hello, audience friends, this is the site of the Interstellar Pheromone Symposium (hereinafter referred to as IPS) in Mingsha City, Z-91 Star."
“After three months, IPS has been successfully concluded today.”
“Today we are honored to have a special guest for the interview: he is from the Lehman Empire and is the youngest scholar invited to attend the IPS since its inception. He is only 23 years old this year!”
"He was born on a C-class planet. He was admitted to the Royal Omega Academy of the Leman Empire at the age of 18. In the same year, he became the first civilian chief of the Royal Omega Academy! He..."
"boom--!"
The projection screen vibrated violently, and the reporter's voice became intermittent: "...because of its achievements in pheromone research...it has benefited billions...it has been decided...to compile it into...textbooks..."
“BOOM BOOM——!!”
Outside the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, the vast dark universe has been dyed red by the flames rising into the sky.
In the luxurious first-class cabin covered with thick snow-white natural fur carpet, an elegant young man was standing quietly by the window, squinting at the densely packed crimson starships in the distance with a frown on his face.
In the gap between explosions, on the flickering light screen, the reporter's intermittent voice finally returned to normal temporarily, "He is the national treasure-level researcher known as the Omega Star of the Leman Empire - Shen Qingzhu!"
Hearing his own name, the young man by the window finally took the time to glance at the projection screen, and happened to meet his own eyes in the center of the screen, with black hair, green eyes and a gentle smile on his face.
——That was the interview he gave a month ago, before the research team left Z-91 and returned.
After a flash of thought, Shen Qingzhu did not waste any more time. He quickly went to the cloakroom, took off his solemn and luxurious casual clothes, and took out a simple dark black outerwear from the safe deep in the closet.
Two minutes later, the tightly closed first-class door opened silently.
Shen Qingzhu used brain waves to ask the portable AI Sunjian: [Have you got all the surveillance outside the door? ]
Sunjian: [Of course, Master. Please trust my expertise.]
Shen Qingzhu, dressed in black and wearing black gloves, flashed out and ran quickly towards the lifeboat in Area B.
At the same time, the tip of the bamboo shoot was constantly informing him of the real-time situation of the starship: [Master, the energy cabins of the Apollo starships 3, 4, 7, 9, 10, and 15 have all been destroyed, with a damage rate of 37%, and the damage rate of the starship propulsion device is 45%. ]
[Based on the current results, Apollo will lose all its defense capabilities in 13 minutes.]
[By then, the Crimson Pirates will successfully land and hijack the Apollo. ]
[And you, my elegant and noble master, will become the most valuable captive of the Crimson Star Pirates on this trip—an SSS-level Omega with supreme beauty and super mental power. ]
Shen Qingzhu: [Shut up.]
Shoot tip: [Okay, Master, but before you shut up, I have one more thing to report to you. ]
Shen Qingzhu, who had just taken out a flying skateboard from the hidden door of the starship's bulkhead, said: [Speak.]
Sunjian: [After the first explosion three minutes ago, the Great Prince has sent you 33 communication requests and 127 star messages.]
When Shen Qingzhu heard Sun Jian mention the eldest prince, a hint of impatience flashed across her emerald eyes, but she still asked: [What did he say? ]
Sunjian: [The eldest prince asked you to stay in the first-class cabin and not leave. He has notified the nearest imperial legion to come and escort you.]
Shoot tip: [He deceived you again. ]
Sunjian: [According to my surveillance, since the explosion, he has not sent any request for help to any military, and has only initiated communication with an unknown target.]
Shen Qingzhu raised his eyebrows slightly, and did not let Sunjian track the unknown target. He only asked: [What did the eldest prince say? ]
Sunjian: [He said: Leave Shen Qingzhu to him.]
"Tsk." As soon as these words were spoken, Shen Qingzhu instantly understood that the group of space pirates outside who dared to hijack the empire's official scientific research delegation might have something to do with the eldest prince.
But how can I say it? Shen Qingzhu was not surprised at all that the eldest prince could do such a thing.
[Where is he now? ] Shen Qingzhu asked calmly.
Sunjian: [Since we have not received your reply for a long time, the eldest prince checked the surveillance and found that all the surveillance in the first-class cabin area has failed. He has personally led people here.]
Shoot tip: [In addition to the eldest prince, there are thirteen Alphas on the Apollo who have sent you communication requests and are now rapidly approaching the first-class cabin area.]
Shen Qingzhu: ???
Where did thirteen come from? The total number of Alphas he knew on this starship was less than ten!
But at this moment, the danger level of those Alphas may not be less than that of the pirates outside.
Shen Qingzhu has met countless Alphas over the years and has no expectations for the lower limits of most Alphas.
The eldest prince is the witness.
Shen Qingzhu: [Change the route. We will not go to Area B, but Area D. Sunjian, re-plan the route.]
All the Alphas on the starship are concentrated in the first class cabin and area A. If they don't do anything unnecessary, Shen Qingzhu can easily reach the lifeboat in area B.
But they were all on their way to the first class cabin at the moment. If Shen Qingzhu went to area B again, he would most likely run into someone.
Shen Qingzhu was running for his life and had no time to deal with them.
Bamboo shoot tip: [Good master.]
Sunjian: [The new route has been planned. Use the flying skateboard to get to the lifeboat in Area D. It will take 7 minutes at full speed.]
Bamboo shoot tip: [There are still 12 minutes until the star pirates land, please leave immediately. ]
When he finished speaking, Shen Qingzhu had already stepped on his flying skateboard and disappeared in the interconnected corridors of the starship in the blink of an eye.
7 minutes later, Shen Qingzhu arrived at the D area lifeboat on time.
During this period, he had sensed the auras of different Alphas more than once, but he dodged them all perfectly without leaving a trace.
Because the Apollo's energy module and power system were severely damaged, the starship has automatically opened the lifeboats in various areas to allow passengers to escape.
The Apollo is filled with the Empire's top talents in pheromone research. They are all treated as VIPs and mostly hang out in the first class and Area A. The starship staff mostly hang out in Area E, and Area D is empty at this time.
In this way, Shen Qingzhu was able to enter the lifeboat unimpeded and quickly lie into a capsule egg.
After the capsule egg closed, Shen Qingzhu's body was quickly filled with soft, odorless, shock-proof gas.
Bamboo shoot tip: [The capsule egg is in good condition. To avoid physiological discomfort after the capsule egg is launched, a sleeping pill will be released from the capsule egg in one minute.]
Bamboo shoot tip: [Master, please get ready. ]
Bamboo shoot tip: [When the external environment is confirmed to be safe, the capsule egg will release the awakening potion again. ]
Although it was the first time that Shen Qingzhu was hijacked by space pirates and was about to fall asleep in the capsule egg, wandering alone in the empty universe, not knowing when he would wake up, he was not panicked, but rather a little nostalgic.
Unlike his usual gentle and smiling appearance, Shen Qingzhu had a resolute look on his face at this moment, and he did not look like the perfect Omega who was longed for, cherished, and admired by all the Alphas in the empire.
It was pitch black inside the capsule egg. Shen Qingzhu's thoughts drifted away for a moment, as if he had returned to the equally dark and quiet capsule egg many years ago.
"boom--!"
There was another violent vibration, and the Apollo's starship intelligent system issued a shrill alarm, "Beep-beep-beep! The energy cabin is 98% damaged, the power system is 100% damaged, and the starship defense system will be shut down in 30 seconds!"
Sunjian: [Master, I just received a communication signal from the Third Army of the Empire. The Third Army is on its way and will arrive at the Apollo in thirty minutes at the latest.]
Shen Qingzhu: The Third Legion of the Empire?
The only time Shen Qingzhu realized that the Third Legion was not under the command of the eldest prince was before he suddenly felt heavy in his head.
The tip of the bamboo shoot also reminded in time: [The sleeping potion has been released, please relax and fall into a deep sleep. ]
[The capsule egg is about to enter the ejection track, and the cloaking device has been activated. ]
Shen Qingzhu only had time to remind him: [The capsule eggs are fired in the direction of the Third Legion...]
My thoughts suddenly became fragmented and sank into a sea of silence.
…
"Ding - good morning, Master. It is now 8:30 a.m. on Thursday, 14th of the 1066th year on Planet C-07. I will give you today's weather forecast..."
Shen Qingzhu was awakened by a soft music and the slightly dull voice of a child from a nearby school.
His head felt dizzy and a little painful, so Shen Qingzhu immediately used his brain waves to say to Sun Jian, "Don't talk for now."
The sound of the bamboo shoots did not stop, "Surface temperature -35℃ to 43℃, air quality D-, southwest wind 17-18. Please pay attention to cold and heat protection when traveling, and wear a filter mask."
Shen Qingzhu:?
His eyes suddenly opened, and Shen Qingzhu finally realized that something was wrong.
Since entering the Academy Star and becoming a student of the Royal Omega Academy, Shen Qingzhu has not been to a planet with such a large temperature difference between day and night, air quality below A, and such outrageous wind speed for several years.
It’s not that his Omega physique couldn’t bear it, but the people who had been following him wouldn’t let him go back to C-07.
So he is on C-07 now?
Shen Qingzhu sat up and looked around the room carefully.
This was a small, windowless, dark and cramped room of less than ten square meters. The only furniture was a single bed under Shen Qingzhu and a small dark gray table next to the bed that was barely big enough for one person.
Both the small table and the bed are made of the cheapest recyclable materials, and judging from the degree of wear and tear, they have been used for at least thirty years.
Although the material of the bedding is better, the texture is still very rough. For an Omega with delicate skin, even a slight turn over could cause red marks.
Shen Qingzhu: ...
So, who put him in such a room?
If he remembered correctly, before falling into sleep, he had clearly reminded Sunjian to launch his capsule egg towards the Third Legion.
Is the Third Legion so strapped for cash that it can only provide him with a room like this?
Or was his capsule egg intercepted by someone on the way? Which bastard has locked him up in the dark room now?
As his thoughts raced, Shen Qingzhu casually raised his hand, wanting to see if his fingertips, which had just twisted the bed sheets, were red.
Seeing this, Shen Qingzhu's heart suddenly jumped and he opened his eyes wide suddenly - his fingers were almost one knuckle longer than before he fell asleep!
Also, why is his skin so dark? !
"Shunji, turn on the light!"
"Yes, Master."
A faint light suddenly came on. Although it was not too bright, Shen Qingzhu could still clearly see that her exposed skin was almost brown.
Shen Qingzhu's pupils suddenly trembled, but he forced himself to calm down and focus on his arms and legs, which were much slimmer than before.
His head was buzzing. Although he had seen many storms over the years, Shen Qingzhu had never encountered a situation like this.
It was obvious that the tip of the bamboo shoot could not receive his brain waves. Not knowing if something went wrong during his sleep, Shen Qingzhu could only ask again, "How long have I slept?"
As soon as he said this, Shen Qingzhu finally noticed that there was something wrong with his voice. It was clearer and stronger than before, and did not have the weakness and hoarseness that comes from waking up from a long sleep.
Shen Qingzhu: ...
Everything in front of me was weird and absurd.
Sunjian's answer made everything even more awkward, "Master, you slept for 8 hours last night."
Shen Qingzhu: This is obviously not what I want to ask.
How come when I woke up, the bamboo shoots felt a bit like the artificial retardation they once had.
It was obvious that asking this would not get him any results, so Shen Qingzhu got out of bed swiftly, put on black cheap slippers, and quickly found the even more shabby bathroom in this shabby little house.
Fortunately, the place was relatively clean and there was no peculiar smell. After instructing Sunjian to continue turning on the lighting system according to his movement route, Shen Qingzhu quickly looked at the half-person-high mirror on the bathroom wall.
The person in the mirror was estimated to be about 1.8 meters tall, with a thin build, long bangs that covered most of her face, shoulder-length curly black hair, which was dry and frizzy, and it was obvious that it had not been properly taken care of in a long time.
Pushing her bangs back, Shen Qingzhu stared at the brown face and emerald green eyes in the mirror.
The light was dim and the lighting conditions were too poor. His skin color was too dark now. Shen Qingzhu looked for a long time before he was sure that the face in the mirror was indeed his own, but the contours were much clearer than before. When his face was expressionless, there was a sharpness that he had never had before.
Shen Qingzhu tilted his head slightly and squinted at the slightly unfamiliar self in the mirror - the bamboo shoot tip was still there, and he was still himself, so what was so strange?
"Shunjian, report your physical data."
Even if it is artificial intelligence now, this most basic function must still exist.
Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, Shen Qingzhu heard the tip of the bamboo shoot reporting his current physical data one by one:
"Name: Shen Qingzhu
Race: Human
Gender: Alpha male
Age: 18
Height: 181cm
Weight: 68.5kg
blood type:……"
Shen Qingzhu didn't think about what Sunjian said next at all.
His mind is now filled with that sentence - Alpha male and 18 years old!
Is this some new kind of prank show?
But Shen Qingzhu has strong mental strength and has always been extremely sensitive to cameras and other people's sight. He is very sure that there is no surveillance equipment in this room.
Moreover, given his current status, it is impossible for the program crew to dare to play a prank on him.
Furthermore, his extra 7cm height, obvious changes in body shape and skin color are not fake.
But how could he, an Omega who had already completed secondary differentiation, become an Alpha after just one night's sleep? !
As a well-known scholar in the research of AB pheromones, Shen Qingzhu was well aware that the possibility of such a mutation was extremely small, and he had never had any tendency of pheromone mutation before.
However, age aside, if you want to determine whether he is really an Alpha now, there is actually a very simple way:
As we all know, Alpha has a physiological structure that is completely different from other genders.
He/she has one more bone than Beta and Omega.
In a cavernous body that cannot be described in a straightforward manner.
The reason why Alpha can complete the lifelong marking of Omega is precisely because of the existence of that bone, which is the reproductive bone.
As an elegant and reserved Omega, although Shen Qingzhu had full theoretical knowledge in the past, he always kept his distance from all the Alphas that appeared around him.
When he was taking the physiology and anatomy class, his instructor did not allow him, an Omega, to come into contact with cadavers of gender A.
So, to this day, Shen Qingzhu has never touched that bone in Alpha's body.
He has always been a very curious person.
so.
In order to confirm his true gender now, Shen Qingzhu quickly returned to the bed and silently pulled down his pants.
