Chapter 69: ABO
Fuck.
Ge Xiu cursed inwardly.
The sound of the hard forelimbs and claws of the insects digging through stones was coming from behind, breaking the silence. The sound of the glass breaking above became clearer, as if the Zerg had broken in through the windows of other floors.
Time was running out, he couldn’t delay for a second.
Ge Xiu glanced at the amount of fuel remaining in the mecha, and his heart tightened slightly.
—There was no other way.
Ge Xiu parked the mecha in a relatively narrow and closed space.
He severed the neural link between himself and the mecha, opened the cockpit door, and jumped out with difficulty.
The moment his feet landed, Ge Xiu’s legs softened and he almost fell to the ground.
He gritted his teeth and stood up, stumbling toward the surgical equipment area—collecting scalpel, sterilizing alcohol, towel, hemostatic and suturing equipment.
After everything was collected, Ge Xiu returned to the mecha, and then mobilized all of the running energy of the body to reach the defense cover.
The light in the cockpit dimmed instantly, and only the virtual screen in front of him remained lit up.
Several bugs have broken through the weakest part of the outer wall, rushed in, and then pounced on the mecha, and began to break through the outer defensive cover with sharp claws.
An ear-piercing screeching sound filled the cabin, and it sounded eerie in the cramped cockpit.
Ge Xiu’s expression sank like water.
He placed the equipment in front of him one by one, then called up the monitor in the cockpit and aimed it at the back of his neck, so that the image of that piece of his skin would appear on the virtual screen.
He was very clear about his situation. This time, no one will come to the rescue.
The original body came here concealing his identity, and no one knew the illustrious family background and astonishing wealth behind him. Even if he died here, the report would be nothing but a cold number.
Even more so, Ge Xiu could be sure that the army he was in before may have already regarded him as a dead person.
No one takes risks for the dead.
The duration of the estrus caused by the differentiation period can even last for more than a week, which varied according to each person’s physique.
On this planet occupied by the Zerg, he was like a lamp in the dark, attracting countless Zergs moths to him.
And he had no inhibitors.
—This leaves only one option.
Ge Xiu stared at the back of his neck on the screen very calmly, gripping the scalpel in his rubber-glove covered hand, the tip of the blade flashing a sharp silver light.
His hands were steady.
The tip of the knife cut through the skin, quickly creating a smooth cut, and bright red blood gushed out along the incised wound, instantly soaking the combat uniform he was wearing and dyeing it a deep dark red.
The muscles on the back of Ge Xiu’s spine tightened uncontrollably.
He clenched his back molars tightly, not allowing himself to make any sound—that piece of skin was so sensitive that even slight rubbing on it would cause severe numbness and pain, as if the pain sensors there were enhanced a hundred times.
However, anaesthesia couldn’t be used.
The back of the neck was close to the spine and it had dense nerves. Once under anaesthesia, he wouldn’t be able to control the force and accuracy of his scalpel at all.
There was an even more frantic scratching sound from the Zergs above his head.
They seemed to smell blood combined with the strong pheromone smell and they became doubly manic and ravenous.
However, the place where the mecha stayed was narrow and enclosed, and it could only accommodate three or four bugs at a time, and the mecha shield put with full energy was enough to resist those attacks.
The sound of scratching the metal plate above his head became more and more noisy, but Ge Xiu didn’t even move his eyes, and only stared at the bloody picture on the screen.
The fingers that were dyed bright red penetrated into the wound, looking for something.
A small gland was hidden in the muscle and was forcibly torn out—
the blade of the scalpel turned, and the cold snow-white light swept across, cutting off the dense nerves connected behind the round gland, Ge Xiu’s eyes went black, and the pain that was almost suffocating came like a tsunami, his hand couldn’t help but soften.
“Clang——”
The blood-stained scalpel fell to the ground, bounced twice, and didn’t move.
Ge Xiu was panting violently, his body already soaked in the cold sweat, he blinked a few times forcefully, trying to blink away the blurry dark spot in front of him.
He slowed down, raised his hand, picked up the hemostatic agent on the side, and stared at the edge of the wound.
Immediately afterwards, Ge Xiu picked up the suture tool.
The sharp long needle penetrated the sensitive skin, and every time the needle went down, his body would involuntarily tremble slightly, but his fingers still held the long needle tightly, steadily and slowly, once after another, one after another.
Every second seemed to be stretched out into a terrifying century.
Hot sweat dripped from his hair and forehead, and fell on the trembling black eyelashes. Every time he blinked, a drop of sweat fell, and soon a small area on the ground was wet.
Finally, after an unknown amount of time, Ge Xiu stopped.
On the screen in front of him, under the slender neck, there was a bloody sutured wound entrenched on the pale skin, which looked even more shocking in the dim light of the cockpit.
He let out a sigh of relief, and his two aching arms fell down. The hands that were stable just now without the slightest tremble were now shaking violently.
Ge Xiu’s entire face was completely wet with sweat, pale as if a shimmer of light pierced through the night, but his eyes were still absolutely awake and calm, bright enough to make one’s heart tremble.
He lowered his eyes and glanced at the gland that had been forcibly removed from his body.
It was only the size of a little fingernail, and the outside was covered in blood, but it was still a pale flesh pink.
Ge Xiu felt that the fever in the depths of his body began to gradually subside, and the strange emptiness gradually disappeared.
——Such a small thing, but it could cause so much damage.
Later troubles ruled out.
Ge Xiu looked up at the magnified face of Zerg insect on the hatch glass overhead, and raised the corners of his pale lips under the stare of the other’s ugly compound eyes.
Now it’s time to deal with this horde of ugly bugs.
The blood-stained fingertips still trembled physiologically, but they were already skilfully and smoothly controlling the virtual screen in front of them.
“Energy transfer.”
“Extending all weapons in the mecha.”
“Optical weapons are fully charged.”
“The mecha’s deep shield is activated.”
At the moment when the synthesized electronic sound fell, the dazzling laser exploded in the narrow area. The nearest Zerg was directly evaporated into carbon powder by the high heat generated by the explosion of huge energy.
The huge impact shook the entire crumbling building.
“Kacha——” “Kacha——”
Huge cracks quickly appeared on the mottled wall, and the whole building crashed down, burying and crushing all the Zerg who were too late to leave the hospital.
The silver-white mecha surface was covered with thick dust, and all the light completely disappeared from it.
However, in the next second, the hatch made a rattling sound, as if it had been rusted, and it lifted up slowly with difficulty.
A slender figure covered in blood climbed out of it, then rolled over and fell to the ground.
Ge Xiu let out a groan.
He slowly swallowed the bloody taste that came from the depths of his throat, then struggled to look up in the direction the mecha arm was pointing.
A shimmer of light shone through the gaps between the rubble, illuminating countless dust flying in the light.
When he released the laser cannon just now, Ge Xiu was not aiming blindly.
Each shell was aimed at the pre-designed position. In addition to knocking down the entire building and clearing the Zerg tracking him, it also left an extra round of ammunition to clear the escape route for itself.
He braced himself with difficulty, crawling among the rubble and the shattered remains of buildings.
The sound wave from the explosion just now caused his ears to bleed, and the warm blood ran down the side of his face into his collar, making him shudder.
The soft and delicate skin of this body had scratch marks everywhere from the sharp stones around it. From the forearm to the calf, the skin was all covered with scars, and the blood stained the short distance he climbed.
Ge Xiu felt his consciousness quickly leaving his body.
——shit.
After experiencing the hormone fluctuations during the estrus period and the severe pain during simple surgery, complied with the huge impact on this body when the photon shell exploded, this omega body had long been overwhelmed. If Ge Xiu had not been using his willpower all the time, he wouldn’t have been able to hold on until now.
However, human willpower had its limits.
This body could no longer bear more ordeals, and the physical exhaustion made him finally unable to move forward.
The dim light shone on Ge Xiu’s profile covered with blood and dust, his eyelids trembled twice, everything was spinning before his eyes, but he couldn’t hear a sound in his ears.
The darkness engulfed the light, and Ge Xiu fell into a coma.
Everything was so quiet.
It was as if his ears were filled with countless noises.
Sound of water.
The endless sound of water.
It was as if waves of distant tides were rushing towards him, and he was pulled by gravity, sinking into the abyss where no light could be seen, and the bubbles and foam swept past his ears and floated towards the sea surface above his head.
In a trance, Ge Xiu saw the blurred face of a man.
The man stood far away and he could not see his features clearly, but his eyes—still clear even from that distance—were so silent and sad.
—even so familiar.
Ge Xiu felt his heart clench.
Suddenly, a sound of rubble rubbing and colliding came from a distance, and vague words overflowed into the dream, as he was grasping the fleeting fragments:
“…Good looks…someone…”
“The pheromone remains…Go and find… …”
The light covering his face suddenly expanded, Ge Xiu was pulled back to reality at that moment, everything seemed to be spinning silently, he struggled to lift his eyelids, but all the pictures in front of him were blurry.
“…Defective product?”
“Price…won’t…”
Vague words flooded into his mind.
In the next second, the black shadow suddenly pressed down, blocking the faint light in the distance, and then, Ge Xiu felt a sharp pain come from his neck, and a cold liquid poured into the body instantly.
So he fell into a coma again.
However, this time, Ge Xiu didn’t have any dreams.
·
Not sure how long it has been.
Ge Xiu woke up again and he blinked slowly, his vision gradually becoming clearer.
As his reason returned to the cage, he found that he was curled up in a small cage where he could barely stand upright. The surroundings were dark and damp, and he could barely see anything further away.
There were also a few similarly disgraced and ashen people curled up beside him, and soft weeping echoed in the narrow space, the atmosphere was stagnant and depressing, entirely lifeless.
This was… where was he?

Omegas: *weak and vulnerable in heat*
Ge Xiu: I don’t have such weakness *un-omegas himself*
.
Bamboo has something to say:
Ge Xiu doesn’t need a certificate. A certificate needs Ge Xiu.
He can and will be a mecha driver and a surgeon at any moment if given occasion. Also, he lucked out with this ABO world, in another ABO novel removing glands during heat can kill you, and in another removing glands cuts down your life expectancy to 50. Not like Ge Xiu actually gonna live that long though…
