Shafulai dragged his injured leg to the door as fast as he could and took the medicine from the butler.
Facing the worried look in Butler Vaino's eyes, Shafley didn't bother to say anything more and just told him not to worry.
After closing the door, Alpha immediately turned back. Chen Nian was curled up in the quilt, crying silently. It was obvious that he had been abandoned.
The price was too heavy, and it made it hard for him to breathe. The yellow, bloated, and inelastic raft was floating on the turbulent sea as the storm approached, and he could only watch it leak air and quickly collapse. It would sink in the next second and he would drown.
Shaflay opened the medicine box and found that in addition to the inhibitors needed by both sides, there were also many various auxiliary supplies.
Shafulai forced himself to ignore them and took out the Alpha inhibitor to inject himself. Oral medication was no longer effective at this moment. He had to hold it in, no matter how strong the desire was.
He could make Chen Nian utter a desperate plea for mercy, or even force open the deepest part of her reproductive cavity, but not now.
Shafley opened the pheromone masking spray again and sprayed himself from head to toe.
The Alpha's pheromones were blocked and could no longer be captured by the Omega. Something suddenly pierced the raft and he fell into the freezing cold, hopeless deep sea.
"Shafulai..." Chen Nian called his name in despair. Shafulai quickly opened the Omega inhibitor and was about to inject Chen Nian.
As soon as he picked up Chen Nian, he was grabbed. Chen Nian's knuckles turned white from the force. Shafulai was back again, and this time, he must not let him leave again.
Shafulai unbuttoned two buttons of Chen Nian's shirt, revealing the shoulder with the moon birthmark, but heard the boy sobbing and speaking incoherently:
"…Do you want to do it? It's hot in here now, it will be very comfortable."
Shafla couldn't figure out whether Chen Nian was delirious because of the fever, or whether he really thought so in his heart, and that deep sadness reappeared.
How helpless and poor must one be to come up with such a way to compensate him when one is sick and has a fever?
"No, I won't touch you until the situation gets better. Listen to Chen Nian, feelings don't have to be expressed through those things, do you understand?"
Chen Nian thought dully, but apart from his body, was there anything else about him that would satisfy Shafulei?
The boy calmed down, and Shafley took the opportunity to inject him with an inhibitor. Chen Nian had just passed the official fever period a week ago, so if he was treated properly, there wouldn't be any big problems.
What he needs to pay more attention to is the fever caused by illness.
Shaflay gave him another dose of antipyretic medicine, and this time Chen Nian opened his mouth obediently. When the pill was brought to him by Alpha's fingers, Chen Nian resisted the urge to hold it in his mouth and simply swallowed the medicine.
He felt very uncomfortable, the double fever was tormenting his body, and he wanted some comfort, any kind of comfort, no matter how rough or gentle, he could not bear it anymore.
Shafley's attitude was firm: No.
Chen Nian frowned, trying to endure it, and then he heard Shafulai leave and come back again. He was walking all the time, is his leg okay?
Then the body was propped up again, and the bottle of nutrient solution was brought to his lips: "Drink it. You haven't eaten much all day, you won't be able to handle it."
Chen Nian tasted the nutrient solution. The sweet white peach flavor was diluting the bitterness in her mouth. She wanted to lick his wrist and hold the round and protruding ulna in her mouth. She wanted to...
So embarrassing.
The image he had worked so hard to maintain for so long was completely shattered at this moment, becoming fragile and difficult to deal with. Would Shafley find it disgusting to see him like this?
Chen Nian's clothes were soaked with cold sweat, and Shafulai was afraid that he would feel uncomfortable, so he wanted to change his clothes.
Shafulai took out clean clothes and was about to take them off the Omega. He unbuttoned his shirt very smoothly, but when he was about to touch his abdomen, Chen Nian suddenly reacted and held him down.
"No, don't."
Chen Nianhun tensed up and held Shafulai's hand tightly to prevent him from continuing. "I, I can do it myself."
Shafulai was a little confused. When he was unbuttoning the other buttons for Chen Nian just now, the boy was completely indifferent. Why did he suddenly care so much?
Is it because you are afraid that you will see the scar on your belly?
Shafley did not insist and turned his back on his own initiative. He heard the rustling sound and waited until everything quieted down before turning back.
Chen Nian has already changed her clothes.
Shafley: "Take some sleep, and you'll feel better when you wake up."
Chen Nian nodded lightly and said nothing more. He lay on his side on the bed with the quilt pulled up to his chin, then lowered his head and buried his nose in it.
Shafley sat beside him by the head of the bed. He neither said anything nor looked at the terminal to kill time. He stared silently at a certain point in the empty air. Only when Chen Nian's breathing gradually became steady did he look at the young man.
Chen Nian's face was abnormally flushed, and even when he was asleep, his brows were tightly furrowed, with messy black hair tangled at his brows. He didn't look carefree and cheerful as usual at all. Shafulai suddenly missed the way he smiled, with his eyes curved and amber-colored.
Shafulai reached out his hand and gently smoothed Chen Nian's brow.
Alpha let out a long breath. Even though he had taken an inhibitor, he was still very uncomfortable with Chen Nian. During the days he had been with the boy, Shafla had become accustomed to enduring it. He also knew that holding it in for too long was bad for his health, but what else could he do?
Now that he had finally settled down, Shafley remembered that he seemed to have received a message just now. He opened the terminal and saw the message from Chen Ci.
The coordinates point to an unknown server site?
Shafley carefully looked at the photo sent by Chen Ci. The logo of the Electric Fantasy Kingdom was clearly drawn on the paper, and several rows of numbers were written vertically at the bottom. It looked very much like the small advertisements posted in the past. If necessary, he could tear off a copy of the vertical strip with the contact information and put it in his pocket and take it away.
Shafulai saved the picture and forwarded it to Baige Yingtao, asking him to check it out first, and then posted:
[Sorry, I was busy just now and only saw the message now. ]
Chen Ci quickly replied: [No problem, are you free now? ]
Schaffley: Yes.
Chen Ci: [Something seems to be broken on the server, can you help fix it? ]
Shafley: [How's the signal over there?]
Chen Ci: [Not bad.]
Shafley: [Then turn on the video.]
Shafley made a video call to Chen Ci. He was very careful to turn the camera to a deserted place. The moment Chen Ci answered the call, he immediately turned off the camera on his side.
If it was just Chen Ci, their video would have nothing to do with each other, but Fu Tianhe was also there.
It is obvious that Chen Ci does not want to reveal his identity yet, so he has to help keep it secret. I just don’t know how Fu Tianhe will react when he finally knows Chen Ci’s true identity.
I hope I don't end up like myself.
Although he had only met him briefly in the game, Shaflay began to sympathize with this strange Alpha who might be in the same situation as himself.
Although if you really want to argue about it, Fu Tianhe has actually cheated him the biggest cuckold.
Chen Ci understood why Shafley turned off the camera. As long as he could see the status of the server through him, it would be fine.
He held up the terminal, came to Fu Tianhe's side, and said, "He picked up."
Chen Ci did not reveal anything. Fu Tianhe thought Shafley was just a friend who was good at computers, and he greeted him warmly:
"Excuse me, brother. I'm an engineer and I don't know anything about computers. I suddenly encountered this situation and I can't solve it. Fortunately, you can help me. By the way, my name is Fu Tianhe, what's your name?"
"My name is ..."
Shafley paused. He could have called himself Vicha, but then Fu Tianhe would know that he was actually Bengche from the game who had escaped. He was worried that the more information he revealed to Fu Tianhe, the easier it would be for his identity to be guessed.
"My name is Big Injustice."
"Big...huh?"
Fu Tianhe was stunned, thinking he had heard wrongly, and subconsciously looked at Chen Ci. Chen Ci thought he hadn't heard clearly, and repeated intimately: "He said his name is the big wronged."
Fu Tianhe was stuck for a moment. He uttered two "hmm" sounds helplessly and asked, "Then...Brother Yuanzhong, can you take a look at what's going on first?"
"Move the camera closer so I can take a look."
Chen Ci stepped forward to allow Shafley to better observe the set of servers that were specially marked by the blue droplets.
Shafley frowned slightly. He could tell that they were models from the previous generation. These servers must have been in operation for at least thirty years.
Servers are power-hungry monsters that generate enormous amounts of heat when in operation. How to successfully dissipate the heat and ensure the normal operation of the unit becomes a major challenge.
Microsoft, once the Internet giant, sunk a data center consisting of 846 servers into the deep sea in Scotland in order to achieve a good heat dissipation effect. The temperature on the top of the snow-capped mountains is below freezing all year round, which is also very suitable for placement.
The beacons themselves are the largest supercomputers ever built, with their CPUs located at their bases, surrounded by a condensation layer filled with seawater to dissipate heat.
As for why other places need to set up such a large-scale server group, it is actually easy to explain, because beacons need to be able to back up data and share it with other peers, which is the so-called cloud.
