“Hutch will come and meet us then.” He Wen glanced at the information on his personal terminal.
“Gurgle gurgle gurgle”.
“Eleph will also be coming, but he said he’s been having a bit of trouble lately.”
“Gurgle gurgle gurgle”.
“And then there’s Miao Xiaomi. Miao Xiaomi won’t come in person; he’ll probably send his Marshal instead.”
“Gurgle gurgle gurgle”.
He Wen paused here and looked at Lang Shiyi beside him.
“What’s wrong?” Lang Shiyi raised an eyebrow, seemingly not understanding why He Wen had stopped. “I’m listening.”
“Could you please stop scratching Yan Leyang’s chin?” He Wen looked at Yan Leyang, who had a satisfied expression, with mixed feelings. “Or you could try to control your voice.”
“Sorry.” Lang Shiyi released Yan Leyang and reached out to touch Yan Leyang’s stomach.
He Wen interrupted his actions: “You can’t even touch his belly.”
Lang Shiyi sighed regretfully. He had just begun to experience the pleasure of petting the big cat when he was interrupted so quickly.
After Lang Shiyi stopped, Yan Leyang started nudging Lang Shiyi with his head. He stopped making noises, but he still looked excited.
“Yan Leyang, can you control yourself? We’re about to start our operation.” He Wen clapped his hands, but Yan Leyang didn’t react. Instead, he fell to the ground and exposed his belly to Lang Shiyi.
Lang Shiyi frowned. Yan Leyang was usually a bit cheeky, but he wouldn’t act like this at such a crucial moment. Lang Shiyi grabbed Yan Leyang’s big head and stared into those green eyes: “Leyang?”
“Awooo.” Yan Leyang squinted his eyes in enjoyment, but Lang Shiyi’s expression changed. The problem of not being able to communicate in their beast forms had long since disappeared between the two of them. Basically, as long as Yan Leyang let out a howl, Lang Shiyi would know what he was thinking.
Previously, Yan Leyang had been acting cute and asking for petting, and the gurgling sounds he made didn’t seem to mean anything, so Lang Shiyi didn’t think anything was wrong until now.
He slapped Yan Leyang hard on the forehead and raised his voice: “Yan Leyang, wake up!”
“Awooo!” Yan Leyang jolted awake, glaring at Lang Shiyi before quickly transforming back into human form. He grabbed his clothes to cover his private parts, exclaiming, “Shiyi, you hit me?”
“Do you remember what just happened?” Lang Shiyi asked him.
Yan Leyang was stunned for a moment: “You were rubbing against my belly, and then suddenly you slapped me.”
“What time is it now?” Lang Shiyi asked again.
“It’s one in the morning in the Cat Clan’s capital city, I can’t tell exactly what time it is,” Yan Leyang answered truthfully. He remembered it clearly; at that time, he thought he was going to be arrested.
“But it’s eight o’clock in the morning.” He Wen reminded him, and then He Wen’s expression changed. “Have you been affected by the mother body?”
Influenced by the mother body? Yan Leyang frowned and began to get dressed: “Is there a gap in my memory?”
“There are signs of bestiality.” He Wen nodded, then suddenly remembered something: “Have you encountered the Mother Body before?”
“Ah, I ran into him.” Yan Leyang’s expression was not good. “He turned into a child and I killed him.”
Yan Leyang recounted in detail his encounter with the Mother Body, who was brought to his side by Seb. However, Yan Leyang felt that Seb might not know the child’s background.
After gaining his freedom, Seb truly left this place. He would never come back, nor was there any need for him to help the Matrix, since Seb genuinely loathed the Matrix’s existence.
“Logically speaking, the Mother Body shouldn’t be able to attack you.” He Wen was a little puzzled, after all, Yan Leyang still had human blood, and Yan Leyang was no longer a pure beastman, he belonged to the category of androids.
“If it was passive, then it’s not necessarily true.” Lang Shiyi’s expression had been rather grim. “What if the reason you transformed into your beast form was because you killed him?”
“He can’t attack you directly, but defensive mechanisms like self-destruction after death are hard to avoid.”
“It’s just that Yan Leyang’s behavior is too normal.” He Wen couldn’t help but sigh. Yan Leyang had this personality when he was in human form. Who would have thought that he would be like this in beast form?
Even Lang Shiyi didn’t notice anything wrong with Yan Leyang at first.
After all, Yan Leyang always liked to stick close to Lang Shiyi, and even after Yan Leyang transformed into his beast form, he still liked to stick close to Lang Shiyi…
Yan Leyang noticed the increasingly strange look in Lang Shiyi’s eyes and coughed twice: “Don’t look at me like that. Let me make it clear, my situation is perfectly normal.”
“Even a tiger wouldn’t go berserk and attack for no reason if it was well-fed and watered. Isn’t it normal for it to stay by its mate’s side and ask to be petted?”
“No cat is as clingy as you,” He Wen reminded him. “The reason you haven’t turned back into a pure beast is probably because of the human genes in your body.”
“So it’s because I’m not a pureblood beast?” Yan Leyang pondered for a moment, “I have one-quarter human blood and one-quarter lion cat blood…”
“Wait a minute,” Lang Shiyi interrupted him. “I remember your mother was a lion cat, how come you are only a quarter of a lion cat?”
“Ah, my maternal grandmother was a honey badger. She traveled all the way across the ocean to come to our place and fell in love with my maternal grandfather’s good looks.” Yan Leyang scratched his head. “Leo cats, to say the least, are all slender beauties. But my mother is a purebred Leo cat, the kind with heterochromia.”
He Wen didn’t have time to care about beauties or not. Honey badgers are notoriously stubborn, the kind that will attack anything that provokes them: “Have you ever had any impulsive thoughts like ‘I’m the best in the world’ before?”
Yan Leyang remained silent, recalling his foolish and naive youth, and decisively shook his head: “I’ve always been quite kind.”
Lang Shiyi saluted Yan Leyang with his attention.
Yan Leyang added, “I can’t really accept overly impulsive behavior, after all, I’m a cultural worker.”
“Oh, then you might have those kinds of thoughts later,” He Wen reminded him. “You will be influenced by your genetic lineage.”
“But I’m a cyborg now.” Yan Leyang still didn’t quite understand.
“Half,” He Wen corrected. “You haven’t undergone any physical modifications. You’re bound to Lang Shiyi, and your body organs are still original.”
“Moreover, viruses can be modified, so it’s possible that they could affect you.”
Yan Leyang and Lang Shiyi stared at each other, Lang Shiyi’s brows furrowed deeply: “Is it possible that Yan Leyang will gradually turn into a complete beast?”
“No, he doesn’t have that pure beast bloodline, so he can’t completely transform into a beast.” He Wen pointed at Yan Leyang. “In any case, the human part of Yan Leyang will not disappear. Nothing can completely disappear. Even if something is reduced to ashes, aren’t ashes still left?”
“Water evaporates and turns into fog. Yan Leyang’s human attributes mean he can’t completely become an animal. Because his human form cannot be erased genetically.”
Yan Leyang frowned in confusion: “But humans are just naked apes. They were like that before they evolved.”
“This toxin won’t work on humans,” He Wen said with certainty. “If what you’re describing happens, wouldn’t that just prove that humans and animals are no different? Why would the Mother Body do that? She has always thought that humans are superior.”
“Even so, Yan Leyang is rarely lucid.” Lang Shiyi was conflicted. “What if he suddenly loses his mind or transforms into his beast form while on a mission…”
“Then Yan Leyang should listen to you, right?” He Wen interrupted him. “Otherwise, we can test it out and see if Leyang really turns into a beast when he transforms.”
“Yan Leyang has a very mixed background, and no one expected this situation. We don’t know what will happen.”
….
When Hutch and the others received the news that Yan Leyang had been infected, they were quite surprised. Later, after learning that Yan Leyang was unable to fully transform into a beast, they felt a mix of relief and envy.
It feels like this guy’s luck stat is maxed out.
“So what are the results of Yan Leyang’s experiment?” Hutch asked the cat-tribe marshal beside him.
Miao Miaomiao was taken aback for a moment: “Ah, it seems that the human and beast forms are not affected, only the brains are affected. But it doesn’t seem to be very aggressive.”
“No aggression?” Hutch froze. He considered Yan Leyang’s nature and was deeply doubtful. “Are you sure?”
“It seems they said it has some aggression, but not much. That’s the conclusion they reached from their experiments. I don’t know the specifics of how they conducted the experiments.” Miao Miaomiao shrugged. “I don’t care about that. As long as we kill the mother body, that’s all that matters.”
How did you come to that conclusion? Hutch’s brows were practically knotted into a bow.
He felt that the method used to arrive at this conclusion must not be simple.
….
“I can’t hold on much longer.” Lang Shiyi cautiously backed away.
There was a large bed in the room, and lying on it was Yan Leyang, or more accurately, Yan Leyang who had lost his intelligence and whose thoughts had turned into beasts, but who still maintained a human form.
Yan Leyang winked at him, his smile was five stars sweet.
After noticing Lang Shiyi swallowing, Yan Leyang quickly patted the mattress beside him, his smile becoming even sweeter as he tried to seduce him.
“Yan Leyang, don’t do this.” Seeing that Yan Leyang was about to take off his clothes, Lang Shiyi quickly hid in the bathroom of the room.
“Damn it, I really can’t take it anymore!!” Lang Shiyi roared at He Wen over there, “He’s flirting with me!”
“Keep it up!” He Wen encouraged, “It’s a test to see if he’ll listen to you in this situation.”
No sooner had he finished speaking than the bathroom door collapsed… it had been smashed open by Yan Leyang.
After bursting through the door, Yan Leyang quickly looked at Lang Shiyi, then clutched his arm and became weak.
“This is bad.” Lang Shiyi took a deep breath.
He Wen quickly stood up: “What’s wrong?!” Is Yan Leyang starting to show signs of aggression?
Lang Shiyi was devastated: “He’s going to act cute towards me! He’s going to act cute towards me!” That feeling! That familiar scent, there’s no mistake!!
“Shiyi,” Yan Leyang said, sounding aggrieved, his pronunciation a little strange, as if he had just learned to speak not long ago, “I’m in so much pain.”
Sure enough! Lang Shiyi covered his face.
“It’s just her being cute.” He Wen breathed a huge sigh of relief on the other end of the line. “You just need to withstand this bit of cuteness…”
“I can’t take it anymore.” Lang Shiyi, in despair, stepped forward and hugged Yan Leyang, who had no bruises on his body.
“Huh? He’s just trying to gain your sympathy,” He Wen reminded him.
Lang Shiyi looked into Yan Leyang’s watery green eyes: “…I know.”
So calm down.
Are you calm?
“Waaaaah.” Yan Leyang weakly grabbed Lang Shiyi’s collar, buried his head in the man’s chest, and howled without squeezing out a single tear.
“I…” Lang Shiyi clenched his fist.
Yan Leyang hugged his waist and nuzzled his head against him.
“I can’t do it!!!” Lang Shiyi broke down. “I can’t stay calm!!”
