Zhuang Li didn't care how the Lord God's script was written.
He launched tens of thousands of nano-aircraft into the sky, letting them fly freely in the city, collecting as many different smells as possible and bringing them back for his own research.
He analyzed the structure of these odor molecules through a detector and said nonchalantly, "How the world operates is not dictated by your Lord God, but by the laws of nature. Not even gods have the power to tamper with anything in nature. Nature is a higher being than the gods, the cradle that nurtures gods, and more precisely, the mother of all living things. When a son, out of greed, attempts to kill his mother, he will inevitably be retaliated by the laws of nature."
Zhuang Li picked up his notebook and filled in the experimental data. He coldly asserted, "Your Lord God is playing with fire. Those who play with fire will get burned. Why is he so eager to devour other parallel universes? Judging from his plundering methods, it's easy to guess that his own universe must have been completely devoured. Only after devouring it did he realize that the universe that gave birth to him was the source of his power, right?"
7480: “…”
"Having lost his source, he's become increasingly weaker, right?"
7480 knelt silently.
"If he gets any weaker, he will disappear, so he came up with the idea of killing other gods and devouring other universes. To put it bluntly, he is just a stupid and pathetic wanderer. He exiled himself, and there is no turning back." Zhuang Li's face was full of contempt.
7480 lowered his head, actually feeling ashamed for his former master.
Zhuang Li continued to observe Chen Jingliu's scent molecules and sneered, "I finally understand why the Lord God chose this person as the Child of Destiny. His scent molecules are extremely active with estrogen and can combine with any male hormone to produce a strong and psychedelic scent. In other words, his compatibility with any alpha is 100%."
7480, who had already read the script, became even more silent.
"System, you're right. Chen Jingliu is a charmer. As long as he deliberately releases his pheromones, all alphas will go crazy for him. And this world is ruled by alphas. In other words, Chen Jingliu, who can easily confuse all alphas, is the ruler at the top of the food chain. As long as he wants, he can subvert this world."
Zhuang Li once again reviewed the electron microscope footage and exclaimed, "This game is getting fun. I like Chen Jingliu's design. Unlike other omegas who can only be marked by one alpha, he can be marked by all alphas, yet he's unaffected by them. Once they have sex with him, those alphas will immediately be controlled by his pheromones, just like a drug addict cannot live without drugs."
"Interesting! So interesting!" Zhuang Li clapped his hands lightly. "System, I like this world more and more."
7480 felt a chill in his heart. He bet that the host's words of love this time were definitely not good words.
"Chen Jingliu's pheromones are the biggest bug in this world, more powerful than any golden finger. Master, you have to be careful, he is very difficult to deal with. As long as he releases pheromones, all the alphas in the world will become his puppets. It is difficult for you to be an enemy of the whole world." 7480 warned cautiously.
"I know this is a world of scent. Pheromones have replaced the brain, controlling most of human thought and behavior." Zhuang Li said nonchalantly, "For Chen Jingliu, dominating this world is not difficult, because his pheromones are the most powerful."
"But for me, it's also easy to control this world." Zhuang Li input the experimental data into the computer with a nonchalant look on his face.
He didn't take Chen Jingliu seriously at all.
7480 issued another warning: "Master, don't underestimate Chen Jingliu, or you'll be in big trouble! He has many lovers, and all of them are powerful figures in the empire."
Just at this moment, a nano-aircraft returned to the laboratory and input the collected odor molecules into the detection equipment.
Zhuang Li immediately examined the structure of these odor molecules and asked, "System, do you know how many kinds of smells there are in the world?"
7480: "...Master, have you forgotten the nickname you gave me? I am a little idiot, Master."
Zhuang Li was amused and explained in a cheerful tone, "Actually, I don't know how many smells there are in the world, but I do know that there are only a few molecules that make up a smell. This is too profound, and you might not understand it, so let me describe it this way."
Zhuang Li projected a picture of oysters onto a screen and slowly explained, "The odor molecule that makes up the distinctive mushroom and citrus flavors of oysters is 1-octan-3-one, which also contributes to the smell of sardines. Meanwhile, the distinctive seaweed flavor of sardines is made up of trans-2-, cis-6-nonadiene. These two odor molecules are also the hallmark scents of fresh oysters."
"The umami flavor of fresh oysters is made up of dimethyl sulfide molecules, which are also present in ketchup and spoiled refrigerated chicken; the main odor of farts caused by eating too many beans is dimethyl sulfide, which is also responsible for the smell of feces or French fries.
"Another major odor molecule in feces is dimethyl trisulfide, which also contributes to the aroma of fish sauce and wine. Fish sauce and wine contain cis-rose oxide, which in turn contributes to the fruity aroma of fresh lychees. Fresh lychees also emit a unique woody aroma, which is composed of 1-octen-3-ol, the same molecule that contributes to the aroma of oysters."
Zhuang Li projected pictures of mushrooms, citrus fruits, sardines, seaweed, ketchup, chicken, feces, French fries, fish sauce, wine, lychees, and other objects onto the screen and asked, "System, do you see the problem?"
7480 held his round head and groaned, "Master, I'm dizzy! What the hell are you talking about? Why are you going around in circles?"
Zhuang Li stretched out his slender fingertips, strung the images together into a circle, and chuckled. "System, you've discovered the key point. Yes, these odor molecules always circulate between different objects. We started from the oyster and ended up back at the oyster."
"So you see? Just five simple odor molecules make up the vast majority of the world's scents. Even feces and perfume contain the same odor molecules. Nature is very frugal. It always uses the same elements to create different things. This is true for chemical elements, and it is also true for odor molecules.
"The six degrees of separation theory tells us that we can get to know everyone in the world through six people; in the world of smell, this theory still applies. Six odor molecules can make up almost all the basic smells in the world."
Zhuang Li pulled up the trajectory of the tens of thousands of nano-aircraft he had released from his brain and instructed, "See? My little darlings are helping me collect scent molecules.
"I don't need super-strong pheromones like Chen Jingliu's. I just need to combine these odor molecules in a certain way to form a specific fragrance, and then integrate them into artificial hormones, and I can replicate any pheromone in the world.
"I can even copy Chen Jingliu's pheromones. Everyone's pheromones are unique because of their different scents, but in mine, that uniqueness has been eliminated."
Zhuang Li sat in a wobbly swivel chair, smiling contentedly, "System, this world doesn't belong to Chen Jingliu, nor to the Lord God. It's mine."
7480 knelt down with a plop and said flatteringly, "Master, do you think my kneeling posture is standard?"
Zhuang Li was amused again and hummed, "Not bad. I'll feed it to you when I get Chen Jingliu's golden finger."
7480 patted his shoulders and saluted like a little eunuch, deliberately making his voice shrill: "Thank you, Master, for the reward!"
The master and the servant were chatting and laughing when Zhuang Li's smart computer rang and the page displayed a string of numbers 000-000-000.
The king’s public contact number is 111-111-111. Who does this contact number, which is even more special than the king’s, belong to?
Yun Ming's image immediately surfaced in his mind, but Zhuang Li waited a full thirty seconds before answering the phone. He said nonchalantly, "Hello, who are you?"
A deep and rich voice sounded: "Excuse me, is this Mr. Zhuang? Hello, I am Yun Ming."
"It's you." Zhuang Li feigned surprise, but a hint of interest curved his lips. "What do you want to talk to me about?"
"First of all, I want to apologize to you," Yun Ming's voice was a little nervous. "I asked your eldest brother for your contact information without your consent. I was presumptuous."
Zhuang Li asked the same question: "What do you want to talk to me about?"
Yun Ming didn't get any further response from him, and his voice became dry. "I saw the comments you posted online, and I also saw Wu Yuhuai's attacks on you. Your glands have been damaged, and your body has fallen into irreversible failure."
Having said this, he had to pause for a moment because he was too sad to speak.
The sound of heavy breathing echoed in the microphone, revealing his inner restlessness.
Zhuang Li silently waited for his comfort.
However, the expected comfort did not appear. Yun Ming took a deep breath and said firmly: "I want you to marry me."
Zhuang Li: "..."
This time, he was truly surprised by his lover. He didn't understand how the topic had turned to a proposal.
After pouring out the most pressing desire that had been suppressed in his heart, Yun Ming's tone became more resolute: "I was born unable to smell pheromones, so my endocrine system has always been unbalanced. If it weren't for my 4S constitution that has kept me going until now, I would probably have died long ago. I also only have five years left to live, so I wonder if we can support each other in the next five years?"
Yun Ming took a deep breath and said, as if taking an oath, "After marriage, I don't require you to prioritize me over everything, nor do I require you to give up your career. I will not hinder you from doing anything you like. You will still be you, and I will still be me. We each have our own independent space, but together we form a complete world. Is this the equality and freedom you seek? If not, you can point it out, and I will correct it."
He paused for a long time before adding with great caution: "I long to live with you."
Zhuang Li remained silent, but the smile on his lips gradually deepened.
He thought his lover would slowly approach him and express her feelings after they got to know each other better, and that this process would be very long. However, his lover hit him straight away.
He didn't have much time left, so he didn't want to waste a single second.
It is because of his sincerity, passion and fearlessness that this relationship can stand the test of time and space.
Zhuang Li covered half his face and laughed softly, tears glistening in his dark eyes. No matter how many small worlds he had experienced, he was still deeply moved every time he felt this moment.
Yun Ming's heart tightened when he heard this ambiguous laughter.
"Could you please give me a chance?" he pleaded, the fear of being rejected making his voice hoarse.
"Okay." Zhuang Li agreed unexpectedly.
Yun Ming was stunned and his breathing became heavier.
After a long while, he asked cautiously, "You agree, don't you?"
"Yes." Zhuang Li responded with a chuckle.
Yun Ming confirmed again: "Did you accept my proposal?"
"That's right." Zhuang Li nodded firmly.
"Thank you," Yun Ming said incoherently, "Thank you for your consent. Oh no, I mean, when should we go to register? Is tomorrow okay? Or should I come pick you up now? I will submit an application report to the military right away. Do you think it's appropriate? I have filled out all the forms, please take a look."
He sent a military marriage application form, and the date was the day they first met.
Zhuang Li couldn't stop laughing. He signed the form, entered his fingerprint, iris, and DNA information, sent it back, and said simply, "Submit it."
Yun Ming submitted the application immediately.
The next second, Zhuang Li received a receipt from the military, saying that the review results would be out within three days.
At the same time, those alpha keyboard warriors began to frantically @Zhuang Li and sent a video like this.
In the video, a top-tier omega went into horny rage in the street, causing a commotion. While other alphas lost control, an exceptionally large alpha calmly approached the top-tier omega, decisively knocked him unconscious, and rushed him to an ambulance capable of blocking out odors, thus averting a disaster.
He was completely unaffected by the pheromones.
Above the video, an alpha keyboard warrior proudly wrote: [See? We alphas can totally resist the temptation of omegas! We're not inferior animals who act solely on smell and instinct!]
The hero alpha in the video was Yun Ming. As soon as his face appeared, the number of likes began to climb wildly.
Yun Ming is the idol of all alphas, the dream lover of all omegas, and the god of war of the empire. His existence proves that alphas are the most outstanding species in the world.
After hanging up the phone with Yun Ming, Zhuang Li happened to see this Weibo post and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
He was about to reply when Yun Ming circled the post with his own account and bluntly stated, "I'm not affected by pheromones because I was born unable to smell them. My excellence stems from my flaws. Within the same ethnic group, no one gender can be superior to the others. I only have five years left to live, but I still believe in freedom and equality."
Yun Ming’s declaration was like a huge slap in the face of those alphas who thought they were superior.
Zhuang Li couldn't help but laugh, presented a picture of a beating heart, and said bluntly and boldly: "What should I do? I seem to love you more and more."
