Although Gu Zhilin said that, Lu Jin'an felt uncomfortable at the thought of being observed like an animal.
He glanced away, not wanting to look at the room surrounded by glass anymore.
She didn't want to argue with Gu Zhilin about whether the people at the research center were going too far.
He turned around and walked in another direction.
Gu Zhilin, worried that he might act impulsively, immediately followed him: "I'm serious. The situation was special at the time, and they released me after confirming that I was alright. They even helped me apply for a house in the downtown area."
"I really owe a lot to their help during the first six months after I woke up."
Lu Jin'an knew that this person was trying to calm her down, so she couldn't keep a straight face and said calmly, "I understand. I won't cause trouble for the research center because of this."
The two continued walking forward, and Gu Zhilin suddenly spotted Zhou Muyun's figure.
His steps were hurried, clearly indicating that he was very busy.
"It seems a bit busy here, should we not bother them?" Gu Zhilin was afraid of causing trouble for Zhou Muyun and prepared to leave.
But Lu Jin'an frowned and said, "It seems to be a Martian assassin. Why don't you go back to Zhou Muyun's office first, and I'll go take a look?"
"Martian assassins?" Gu Zhilin was surprised that Lu Jin'an knew what had happened from so far away. "Can I come with you to take a look?"
Upon hearing this request, Lu Jin'an frowned slightly.
Just as Gu Zhilin thought his request was a bit excessive, he heard Lu Jin'an say, "The Martian assassin is very ugly. You should be prepared."
It turned out that he was worried about being disgusted by the Martian assassin's appearance. Gu Zhilin couldn't help but find it a little funny: "I didn't remember much when I watched Alien back then. A Martian assassin is no problem."
Lu Jin'an asked in confusion: "Alien?"
"That's a science fiction movie from the 21st century. The alien in it is an extraterrestrial creature imagined by humans in the 21st century," Gu Zhilin explained with a smile. "It looks really ugly."
“This time you’ve seen real alien creatures.” Lu Jin’an found it somewhat amusing and continued walking forward with Gu Zhilin.
When encountering places without access control, Lu Jin'an simply swiped his ID card to pass through.
"You actually have an access card for the research center?" Gu Zhilin was somewhat surprised. He had lived here for more than two months and gotten to know the people at the research center well, but he still couldn't get an access card that allowed him to move freely. He only had access to certain areas.
“The Life Research Center is funded by the military, so their authority is fully open to the top brass of the military. As a general, I naturally have that authority,” Lu Jin’an explained calmly.
When the two arrived outside the Martian Assassin's observation room, Gu Zhilin finally understood why Lu Jin'an had said it was ugly.
It was really ugly. This Martian assassin was pitch black, and its body shape was somewhat similar to that of an alien, but its face was more like that of a wild beast, with sticky liquid constantly dripping from the corner of its mouth.
Even through the glass, Gu Zhilin could smell a fishy stench.
"Do Martians all look like this?" Gu Zhilin asked. Could such a beast-like appearance really indicate intelligent beings?
“This is just what Martian assassins look like,” Lu Jin’an explained. “But Martians are only slightly better off than them.”
"Isn't being a Martian assassin a profession among Martians? And they even look different?" Gu Zhilin was genuinely surprised.
Just then, Zhou Muyun arrived: "Because Martian assassins are the result of forced evolution by Martians."
"Forced evolution?" This surprised not only Gu Zhilin, but also Lu Jin'an.
They had always thought that Martian assassins were a branch of Martian life.
“Yes, our research has revealed that this Martian assassin was likely stimulated by some kind of drug to evolve, resulting in a significant increase in both strength and speed.” Zhou Muyun said, looking at the enraged Martian assassin in the observation room.
There was no disgust in his eyes, but rather a hint of inquisitive excitement: "He should have been a normal Martian, but was transformed into this state by drugs over a few years."
"Drug modification?" Gu Zhilin stared in shock at the Martian assassin inside. "So the Martians are also conducting biological experiments? And they're even using their own kind for experiments?"
“Yes, but we don’t know exactly what kind of drug it is. Maybe there are different drugs on Mars.” Zhou Muyun seemed troubled by this matter.
Just then, the Martian assassin seemed to spot Gu Zhilin and became unusually excited. He charged towards Gu Zhilin but was ultimately stopped by the hard glass.
Even though the glass blocked his view, he still stared intently at Gu Zhilin, his beast-like eyes still revealing malice and excitement.
He kept banging on the glass, seemingly trying to shatter it to attack Gu Zhilin.
Lu Jin'an pulled Gu Zhilin behind her and coldly stared at the Martian assassin in front of her, trying to suppress him with pheromones.
Yes, but this habitual suppression was useless against the Martian assassin; on the contrary, it made Gu Zhilin feel somewhat uncomfortable.
"General Lu, calm down. It can't get out. Gu Zhilin can't take it anymore," Zhou Muyun quickly reminded him.
Lu Jin'an then noticed that Gu Zhilin's face was flushed, as if his legs were weak and he could hardly stand.
Zhou Muyun was supporting him.
Lu Jin'an wanted to reach out to help, but Zhou Muyun stopped him: "General Lu, don't forget you are Alhpa."
After saying that, she helped Gu Zhilin, who was now completely exhausted, to the other side.
Lu Jin'an wanted to chase after them, but was stopped by a look from Zhou Muyun.
This was the first time Lu Jin'an had been treated this way at the Life Research Center.
However, he couldn't find a single fault in the other person's actions.
"Dr. Zhou, shouldn't you give me an injection of an inhibitor?" Gu Zhilin felt hot all over.
He hadn't expected that Lu Jin'an's release of pheromones would have such a significant impact on him.
Zhou Muyun frowned and said, "Your pheromone compatibility shouldn't be reacting this strongly. I'll check your compatibility again later."
"Hang in there a little longer. I'll take this opportunity to extract some of your pheromones and study what's causing your heat cycle to be so intense."
Ignoring Gu Zhilin, who was already in so much pain that he wanted to groan, she pushed him into the observation room and extracted his pheromones.
Then they went to study pheromones.
Gu Zhilin, who had been induced into estrus, was left alone in the observation room, unable to do anything.
He couldn't even help himself relieve the pain.
Gu Zhilin covered his eyes with his hands, not realizing that perhaps he shouldn't have come to the research center with Lu Jin'an.
That's so embarrassing.
