Three days later.
The first oasis, Lucui Sanatorium.
For some unknown reason, Shen Que, who was suddenly being closely watched by the maids, finally found an excuse to go out alone.
"It is indeed a living pheromone memory stone."
Charles Excuse Lee returned the white stone to Shen Que.
"Among the things produced by the Sea of Life, pheromone memory stones are relatively common, but they are still very rare. You can't buy them on the market, but you might be able to find them on the black market."
“Pei Ji did say he bought it on the black market,” Shen Que said.
In order to hide his identity, he wore a cloak today, made of fine white cotton with golden patterns embroidered on it.
"This brat...his luck has always been so good...he actually recognized this thing."
Charles was rarely envious.
Everything produced by the Sea of Life is a valuable research sample.
Although the research institute also has pheromone memory stones, it requires signatures from three or more honorary professors before it is possible to apply to use them for research.
It must also be ensured that there is no damage at all.
It cannot be broken or tested.
What's the point of researching that?
Charles reluctantly withdrew his gaze from Chen Que's hand.
"Doctor Li, how long can this stone preserve pheromones?" Shen Que asked.
"Not necessarily. It could be a day, a month, or forever," said Charles.
"permanent?"
Shen Que was a little surprised.
Charles nodded.
"I've read several papers on memory stones, but there's no research yet to confirm how these stones store pheromones."
"Based on existing cases, most cases are kept for six months to a year."
"But there is one case..."
Charles recalled.
"It's an AO couple. The husband is terminally ill, and the wife doesn't want the mark cleaned after his death."
"You know, if an Omega who has been completely marked loses their Alpha, they will experience both physical and mental torture. Their estrus will never be relieved, and they will never be comforted by pheromones, until they die or go mad."
"In order to prevent his wife from suffering like this, the husband did everything he could, spending all his savings to obtain a pheromone memory stone. Before he died, he stored his pheromones in it."
"That stone is preserved forever."
He stared intently at the stone in his hand.
Charles glanced at him.
"This case has caused quite a stir in the academic community. Many scholars have tried to analyze it, but none of them have a reasonable explanation. There is one theory that is... quite unscientific."
"Unscientific?"
“Yes, it’s unscientific.”
Charles frowned, as if he strongly disagreed with the idea.
"The person who made this claim was a senior researcher who was quite famous at the time. Later, I don't know what happened, but he was expelled from the Academy of Sciences, all his research results were invalidated, and there is no record of him in the database."
Shen Que heard another meaning from this sentence: Charles had tried to find the achievements of this predecessor, but failed.
"He said...the Memory Stone relies on emotions to preserve pheromones."
"The longer the emotion the depositor holds when leaving the pheromone behind lasts, the longer the pheromone will remain."
"When the husband died, his guilt, worry, and love for his wife were forever frozen in that moment, so the stone preserved his pheromones forever."
"Not even death can end it."
"It's indeed unscientific." Shen Que commented.
"Yes," Charles nodded in agreement. "Sounds like a fairy tale."
"Personally, I prefer to believe that the Memory Stone relies on some substance within it to preserve pheromones, and how long they last depends on the concentration or other properties of that substance."
"pity."
He sighed.
"It's impossible to confirm."
He turned to Shen Que and said, "But these are not important. Now that I have obtained a piece, I will use it to treat the disease."
"Your previous doctor and I both agree that prolonged exposure to highly compatible Alpha pheromones can help treat your pheromone disorder symptoms."
"This should also be the Queen's original intention in marrying you here."
Shen Que nodded.
After listening to the instructions about paying attention to diet and avoiding bumps, before leaving, Shen Que suddenly asked Charles:
"Doctor Li, do you know of any good craftsmen in the First Oasis?"
"Demi should know more about this kind of thing, right?" Charles recommended subconsciously.
He suddenly noticed that there was no servant following Shen Que today.
Going out alone?
He frowned disapprovingly.
"Demi is out today." Shen Que's eyes flickered, "Anya happens to have other things to do."
"Given your physical condition, it's best not to go out alone." Charles started nagging again.
Shen Que listened patiently and asked his question again at the end.
The kind and elegant Dr. Alpha, with the mentality of taking care of all the patient's needs, replied:
"I don't know much about these things, but I heard students mention a store that seemed okay."
…
An hour later.
Shen Que finally got lost in the rainforest city where the treetops were intertwined.
It’s not accurate to say that I’m lost.
Because the aircraft's automatic cruise has a precise positioning system.
Even without automatic cruise control, as a person who can accurately locate coordinates in the universe, Shen did not think he would really get lost.
No one with poor direction can be a commander.
