Chapter 78#
World 3: Everything You Snatch Is What I Don’t Want#
A spaceship slowly landed on the ground.
Yan Yufei led Qin Gantang down the gangway, holding his hand.
“You will live here from now on.” He stuffed a ping-pong ball-sized compressed suitcase into Qin Gantang’s hand.
“Here?” Qin Gantang looked around in panic.
This was an extremely barren planet. Due to excessive exploitation, the atmosphere had been severely polluted and damaged. Smog that never dissipated shrouded the gray sky, and the burning wind carrying a strong smell of sulfur blew everywhere on the wasteland, emitting terrible shrieks like evil ghosts.
Qin Gantang, who was originally fair and clean, stood in the wind for only a while, and his face was covered with black stains, his nostrils filled with fine sand.
He kept looking into the distance, but all he saw was a Gobi desert, with no vegetation, no water source, and no food.
“What is this place? I don’t want to stay here! Yan Yufei, take me to Planet Hailan! Please!” Qin Gantang cried out in anxiety.
“This is the Exile Star.” Yan Yufei said lightly.
“What? You actually brought me to the Exile Star!” Qin Gantang’s eyes turned red with anger.
“You are an escaped prisoner. You can only avoid police arrest by staying in this kind of place. Get in this flying car, drive twenty kilometers north, and you will see a city. The city has everything. Once you go there, you can survive.” Yan Yufei clapped his hands, and a flying car slowly descended from the cargo hold of the spaceship.
“But the people in the city are all exiles! I am an Omega, I will die! Qin Qing’s potion is not sold in this kind of place!” Qin Gantang grabbed Yan Yufei’s arm tightly.
Only now did he suddenly realize that Qin Qing’s pills were not only to protect alphas but also to protect Omegas like him.
Yan Yufei hooked his lips sarcastically, then pretended to think for a moment as if in a dilemma, and then took out a pill from his pocket: “This pill is the first pill made by Qin Qing. It has not been diluted. After taking it, an Omega will release pheromones that perfectly match all alphas, and the concentration is dozens of times higher than Qin Qing’s pheromones.”
Before Yan Yufei finished speaking, Qin Gantang’s eyes lit up.
He immediately let go of Yan Yufei’s arm and almost pounced forward, trying to snatch the pill. Because of his excessive desire, he even showed a ferocious expression.
Yan Yufei had long been accustomed to his ugly state, but was still disgusted by his stupidity and greed.
“This pill is very dangerous. After taking it, all alphas will be extremely obsessed with you. Its effect is comparable to poison gas. Are you sure you want to take it?” Yan Yufei held the pill high and asked cautiously.
He confirmed Qin Gantang’s wish repeatedly not out of kindness, but out of mockery.
Watching this person jump into hell impatiently, he felt very happy.
“I’m sure! Give me the medicine quickly!” Qin Gantang stared at the pill, his eyes flashing with extremely greedy light.
The scene of Qin Qing wantonly controlling everyone on the round platform kept flashing in his mind. As long as he possessed the same pheromones, he could become like that too! He wanted to become like that!
He wanted to be the person who dominated everything and possessed everything!
Yan Yufei smiled and handed the pill to Qin Gantang, whose eyes were red.
Qin Gantang carefully peeled off the plastic film and couldn’t wait to stuff the pill into his mouth. Without needing water to swallow, he swallowed it forcefully, not caring even if his throat hurt from scraping.
He started coughing, then sweated a lot, his body alternating between hot and cold flashes.
Yan Yufei pushed him into the flying car and said with a smile: “I have already set the navigation for you. You will arrive at the destination in ten minutes. This medicine takes exactly ten minutes to take effect. Once you enter the city, you can become the king there. Good luck.”
Yan Yufei thoughtfully turned on the autopilot system.
“Thank you, Yan Yufei. I didn’t expect that the only person who truly loves me is you.” Qin Gantang stuck his sweaty head out of the car window and said in a hoarse voice.
He shed a few tears.
These were tears of being genuinely moved.
At this moment, he felt he had understood true love.
But this didn’t affect him taking the flying car towards the City of Exile at all. He knew that the people in the city were all heinous criminals. By controlling them, he could find someone to kill Qin Qing!
Yan Yufei was amused. At this moment of parting forever, he didn’t disguise himself, so he really laughed out loud.
He laughed so hard he leaned back and forth, clapping his hands repeatedly, tears coming out of his eyes.
“I really love you, haha, I really love you…”
He kept repeating this sentence, his tears soaked with mockery and pain.
Seeing his “sad and reluctant” look, Qin Gantang felt even more satisfied, so he said gently: “Thank you, Yan Yufei. Goodbye, I will return to the Imperial Capital Star soon, you have to wait for me.”
“Okay, I’ll wait for you!” Yan Yufei waved his hand with a smile.
The flying car went away. Yan Yufei slowly walked onto the spaceship, but didn’t fly away immediately. Instead, he hovered in mid-air.
He turned on the nano-monitor stuck on Qin Gantang’s body and began to watch Qin Gantang’s ending. He poured himself a glass of wine as red as blood, sniffed it gently, and took a shallow sip.
What was happening on the light screen was a movie he arranged, titled “Revenge”.
The flying car took Qin Gantang into the City of Exile.
Sweating all over, Qin Gantang walked out of the car with weak limbs. He raised his arm and sniffed, then revealed a smile of ecstasy. He indeed possessed pheromones stronger than Qin Qing’s!
However, he didn’t know that once the fragrance of this pheromone exceeded a certain critical value, the effect it brought was not foolish infatuation, but crazy passion.
To what extent of love?
Without destroying the pill, Yan Yufei did a small experiment.
He knew that it was love to the point of thirst, love to the bone, love to the point of merging into one.
How can one person merge into one with another? That naturally is…
Yan Yufei drank the red wine in the glass in one gulp and smiled happily.
A group of alphas first looked at Qin Gantang foolishly, and then ran towards him. In the alleys, in the shacks, in the burrows, all the criminals hiding in the dark now all came out. They were like a group of maggots, surrounding Qin Gantang layer by layer.
Qin Gantang, who was originally smiling calmly and proudly, now let out a scream of fear.
“I want you all to back off, back off quickly! Don’t come over! You dare not listen to me! I will punish you! Ah, why did you bite me? Ah, help! Yan Yufei, help! Yin Bozhou, help! Song Yuanyang…”
Trapped in the very center, Qin Gantang called out the names of everyone he could ask for help.
Finally, he even shouted Qin Qing’s name.
How he wished Qin Qing could appear like a god and sprinkle pills that suppress spiritual riots like rain. Only in this way could he be saved!
“No! No! It hurts! Wuwuwu…”
Qin Gantang cried bitterly, but what covered his face was not tears, but blood.
How does a group of maggots eat? They use their mouthparts to nibble away the dirtiest things in the world bit by bit, sucking even the juice dry with thirst.
Unknown how long it took, the chaos finally ended.
Where Qin Gantang originally stood, not even a bone was left. The blood spilled on the ground was also licked away, leaving only a string of messy footprints.
The nano-camera floated in the air, looking down at this dilapidated and dirty city.
But now, it finally became a bit cleaner.
Yan Yufei put down the wine glass, sighed with satisfaction, and then took out the gun he had prepared long ago, aiming at his temple.
At this time, he didn’t think about anything. He didn’t even dare to recall Su Su’s face, because that was a defilement.
“Qin Gantang, I will wait for you in hell,” he murmured, and then chuckled.
He didn’t deserve to find Su Su, but he wouldn’t let Qin Gantang go even in death.
A loud bang came from the distance, followed by a firework blooming straight into the sky.
Qin Qing shrank his neck in fright, eliciting a low laugh from Yin Bozhou.
“Scared?” He hugged Qin Qing from behind, asking in his ear, his fingertips smoothing Qin Qing’s hair stroke by stroke.
Qin Qing was wearing a pure white sweater with a loose collar. Yin Bozhou pulled down the collar, exposing half of Qin Qing’s shoulder, and kissed the fiery red rose tattooed there at some unknown time with his hot lips.
Qin Qing trembled slightly from the heat, turned his eyes sideways and smiled, “Not scared, just had a premonition that Qin Gantang has run far away.”
“I will catch him back.” Yin Bozhou comforted.
“Maybe you will never catch him.” Qin Qing looked at the fireworks outside the window, a strange smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.
Many years later, Qin Qing, who had reached the end of his life, returned to the Main God Space with 996.
The Main God emitted a faint light, asking him for the Origin Fragment.
Qin Qing stood on tiptoe and handed over a small pure black mecha.
However, when the mecha was about to be swept away by a winding stream of light, Qin Qing snatched it back and covered it in his palm.
“Can I exchange it for two wishes?” he asked.
996 was stunned, then nervously pulled at Qin Qing’s trouser leg: “Don’t negotiate with the Main God! Be careful not to anger the Main God!”
However, the soft light in the miniature universe flickered and actually agreed.
Qin Qing clenched the mecha and raised his voice: “The first wish, I hope the world restarts, allowing Su Su to live again. I hope this new world will never have such a thing as pheromones again.”
The Main God listened silently, the soft light flickering continuously.
He did not refuse, which meant He agreed.
Qin Qing looked down at 996 and said gently: “The second wish, I hope 996 can also be seen by people in the small worlds. I hope it won’t be lonely anymore.”
996 was stunned.
Unknown how long passed, tears fell from its round big eyes.
Unable to be seen by people, although it could steal food unscrupulously, most of the time, it was really lonely. Only a very few small animals with spiritual intelligence could see it, and the little male or female cats it fancied couldn’t see it every time!
It couldn’t even fall in love; only Qin Qing understood its bitterness!
“Qin Qing! Meow-woo! I love you so much Qin Qing! You are my best master!” 996 hugged Qin Qing’s calf and cried excitedly.
Qin Qing couldn’t help laughing, then turned to look at the huge miniature universe: “Do you agree?”
The miniature universe responded to him with brilliant starlight.
The time-space tunnel suddenly opened, sucking Qin Qing and 996 in. The next second, the two landed on the ground, looking around in confusion.
“This seems to be a gym.” 996 pointed to a treadmill not far away and said.
But Qin Qing was looking in another direction.
It was a boxing ring. A fair-skinned boy with soft curly hair stood on the ring, talking to a tall, strong man with a handsome face.
Qin Qing walked over slowly, his eyes full of nostalgia. As he got closer, he heard the boy say with disgust: “Coach, don’t touch me, okay? I don’t like people touching my neck casually.”
The handsome man said grumpily: “If you don’t let me touch you, how can you learn self-defense? Okay okay okay, is it okay if I touch you like this?”
The man put on boxing gloves, hit the back of the boy’s head, and then kicked the boy’s butt.
Only then did the boy know the bitterness of speaking without thinking. After taking several hits, he finally gave up his weird principles and cried out bitterly: “Coach, stop hitting, I was wrong!”
The man took off the boxing gloves, grabbed the boy’s arm, twisted it behind his back, making the boy let out a miserable scream.
“Stop twisting, stop twisting, Coach, I really know I was wrong.” The boy wailed repeatedly, tears streaming down from pain.
“If anyone touches your neck again in the future, use this grappling move to twist his arm. Alright, that’s all for today. Get lost.” The handsome man stood up and kicked the boy’s butt gently.
The boy pretended to be hurt by the kick, covering his butt and grimacing, but his soft eyes were full of happy light.
Qin Qing stood under the boxing ring, watching and smiling.
“Is that your friend?” The handsome man pointed at Qin Qing and asked.
The boy turned back to look, first said no blankly, and then revealed a nostalgic smile for some unknown reason. He suppressed his agitated heart, walked slowly to the edge of the boxing ring, and bent down to look.
“Hello, do you know me?” he asked with a smile.
“We don’t know each other. It’s my first time here to work out, and I wanted to find someone to ask about the situation. Can you show me around? My name is Qin Qing.” Qin Qing looked up and smiled.
“My name is Su Su. Is that your cat?” Su Su pointed at 996 squatting by Qin Qing’s feet and teased: “It’s so fat!”
“You are the fat one!” 996 rolled its eyes and retorted in its heart.
Su Su shouted in surprise: “It can roll its eyes! It really looks down on us humans!”
Qin Qing picked up 996 and laughed happily. Such a carefree, lively and cheerful Su Su was really cute.
The two walked around the gym, then ran to the street outside to buy three cups of milk tea, chatting while drinking.
“I’m a sophomore now, studying medicine. But I want to join the army next year.”
“That’s great. Whether studying medicine or joining the army, as long as you like it, it’s fine.”
“My family says joining the army is a waste of youth.”
“How can that be? Joining the army is to protect the country.”
“Right? I also think this responsibility is greater. Your cat is drinking milk tea! Stop letting it drink, it will get sick!”
Qin Qing patted 996’s head gently, reminding it to pretend to be a normal fat cat.
996 rolled its eyes at Su Su again, making Su Su laugh out loud.
Just then, an umbrella-shaped cloud suddenly floated in the sky, slowly shrouding over Qin Qing’s head. Qin Qing felt something in his heart, immediately stood up, and looked at the horizon solemnly.
Sensing something unknown, he suddenly exclaimed: “Sky-Covering Sun-Blocking Umbrella?”
996 also sensed the strangeness of this umbrella cloud and was so scared its fur stood on end.
It was clearly a sunny day, and everywhere else was bright as fire, but the corner where Qin Qing was located was dim and windless, as if sealed.
“Qin Qing, this is—”
996’s question was interrupted by a stream of light shooting straight at them. The stream of light took the shape of an arrow, aimed at Qin Qing’s heart.
“Qin Qing, dodge quickly!” 996 shouted anxiously.
Qin Qing’s body swayed, but then stood still. He used his chest straightly and without dodging to catch the arrow formed by the stream of light.
“Using sacred artifacts like the Sky-Covering Sun-Blocking Umbrella and the Arrow of Time to kill me, isn’t it too wasteful?” Qin Qing covered his chest and asked in a hoarse voice.
A figure gradually condensed under the umbrella cloud, revealing a face as holy as the morning light.
996 was stunned. This person was actually as beautiful as Qin Qing. The difference was that Qin Qing’s beauty carried worldly desires, while his beauty was like snow covering a sacred mountain.
The comer answered with a question: “Why didn’t you dodge?”
Qin Qing shook his head and didn’t speak.
The comer looked at Su Su protected behind Qin Qing and chuckled: “Because if you dodged, this mortal would die? Qin Qing, do you remember what I told you?”
“I remember. If our race develops love, we will definitely die for love.” Qin Qing took a short breath and mocked: “But I didn’t die for love, I was killed by you.”
“To protect a mortal, forcefully taking the Arrow of Time, this is worldly love. Qin Qing, the mortal world is too bitter, I come to help you find release.” The man smiled, and his holy face blurred in the mist.
Qin Qing asked urgently: “How did you find me?”
“Because his blood flows in your body, he will always tell me where you are. I waited a long time for this opportunity, how could I miss it. Qin Qing, after this parting, I’m afraid we will never meet again.”
The man’s face disappeared in the mist, and the umbrella cloud overhead also dispersed.
996 looked at Qin Qing anxiously, wanting to ask, but Qin Qing waved his hand, revealing a comforting smile.
He turned back to look at Su Su, whose time had been frozen and who was completely unaware of anything strange, and said: “Do you like this world?”
Su Su was baffled, but still smiled and nodded: “Of course I like it. Living here is very free, and there are so many delicious things in the university town! After serving in the army, I will come back to study.”
Qin Qing was infected, so he also revealed a gratified smile.
He covered his severely painful chest and said calmly: “I have something urgent, I’m leaving first. Goodbye.”
“Leaving already? Alright then, goodbye!” Su Su waved reluctantly.
Qin Qing slowly left the noisy street and came to a secluded alley. 996 was crying anxiously, constantly looking up to check Qin Qing’s increasingly pale and transparent face.
“What is the Sky-Covering Sun-Blocking Umbrella, what is the Arrow of Time? Who was that man? You took an arrow, will you be okay? Qin Qing, I’m really panicked now!” 996 hugged Qin Qing’s calf.
Qin Qing slowly squatted down, rubbed the little fat cat’s head, and smiled gently: “Goodbye 996, nice to meet you. Tell the Main God, I like this new world very much, don’t destroy it.”
“What?” 996 blinked its big tear-wet eyes blankly.
Qin Qing supported himself against the wall and stood up. A ball of pale light suddenly erupted from his chest, tearing his whole person apart. Many pink petals scattered in the air, blown everywhere by the wind.
996 looked at these petals in disbelief, murmuring helplessly: “Qin Qing!”
Qin Qing disappeared! Like a flower, scattered by the wind!
He was born for love, and died for love.
996 looked at the petals carried away by the wind and let out a shrill cry: “Qin Qing! Come back! Qin Qing!”
The sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds. Countless thunderbolts traveled through the sea of clouds like giant dragons, emitting roars that could destroy heaven and earth. The whole world began to shake, as if the sky was about to collapse and the earth was about to sink.
It was the Main God. He sensed Qin Qing’s disappearance, and He wanted to destroy this world!
996, who still remained in this world, would also be destroyed together!
“Don’t destroy it, Qin Qing said he likes this world very much, don’t destroy it!” 996 jumped onto a high wall and shouted at the sky. It didn’t know if this sentence was useful, but these were Qin Qing’s last words!
The Main God should listen to the last words of His most loyal subordinate!
Pedestrians on the street looked up at the sky, showing fearful expressions of impending disaster.
However, the next second, the dark clouds disappeared, the thunder rumbled away, and a torrential rain disappeared inexplicably before it could drown the world.
Many light clusters wrapped the scattered petals and 996, taking them into the time tunnel.
The dizzy 996 fell on the floor. As soon as it raised its head, it saw Qin Qing’s scattered petals being sucked into the miniature universe and swallowed by different stars.
Qin Qing’s main body, that milky white seed, rotated in the center of the miniature universe. A drop of blood slowly oozed out from inside the seed, suspended in the air, and was burned into a wisp of black smoke by the Main God’s monstrous anger.
The plump seed slowly became withered and shriveled, as if losing the ability to sprout again.
Is it dead? Is Qin Qing dead?
996 watched all this anxiously.
A ball of golden light wrapped the seed and pulled it into the depths of the universe. Stars flickered one after another, as if a vast and boundless power was searching for an extremely tiny thing among them.
996 waited anxiously. It felt that the Main God must have a way to save Qin Qing.
“Lord Main God, don’t forget that Qin Qing was killed to prevent others from stealing your luck. You can’t burn the bridge after crossing it!”
In the past, 996 would never dare to say such offensive words, but for Qin Qing, it risked everything!
A golden light suddenly shot out from the miniature universe and hit 996. A majestic voice like a sacred decree echoed like a bell: “Find him, protect him!”
“What? Find who?” Before 996 could recover, an irresistible divine power pulled it extremely fast, throwing it into the time tunnel.
With a thud, 996 fell to the ground.
Immediately after, there was another thud. A thin, dark-skinned boy was also pushed to the ground, his hands supporting the ground full of gravel, branded with blood marks.
“It hurts!” A familiar voice rang in the ear with cowardice and sorrow.
996 immediately opened its eyes, quickly looked around, and then ran quickly to the boy.
“Qin Qing, you are still alive! That’s great!” 996 shouted happily with its mind.
The boy was scared stiff, looked down at the kitten pouncing into his arms, and asked in disbelief: “Did you, did you hear this cat talking just now?”
996: “…Qin Qing, are you fucking stupid? You don’t even recognize me?”
The boy blinked, his eyes blank for a moment, as if he had forgotten everything, but a familiar feeling rose and lingered in his heart. Under the cover of overly dark skin, no one noticed that his facial features had undergone earth-shaking changes.
He turned into a person with a completely different appearance from before, but no new memories were generated in his brain. He was Qin Qing, the most noble Little Marquis of the Great Yan Dynasty. He came to the county office to be a groom because he had a secret crush on someone.
