This lesson was forced to last for a full day and night.
Chi Ying was repeatedly ravaged by him, transitioning from furious curses at the very beginning to weak, powerless pleas, until he couldn’t even manage a whimper in the end.
When his consciousness blurred for the final time, he saw the corner of the man’s mouth curve upward, which instantly infuriated him.
He grumbled a few unconvinced words and bit down hard on the shoulder muscle right below the man’s chin, refusing to let go until he tasted blood in his mouth.
However, this kind of tickle-like attack was no different from flirting to a strong, well-built alpha; it only made him increasingly excited.
Huo Shiyan lowered his gaze to look at him, his eyes intensely intimidating, the slightly darkened silver pupils making no attempt to conceal his burning desire.
I don’t know how much time passed.
An urgent report came from the adjutant outside the tent, claiming some enemy was attacking, and the man reluctantly and hastily left.
Before leaving,
he playfully patted Chi Ying, left behind a “Wait for me to return,” leisurely put on his military uniform, and strode out looking like a human-shaped beast.
Chi Ying, who had been thoroughly tormented, finally caught a moment to breathe. He gritted his teeth and cursed in a low voice before his head slumped sideways and he lost consciousness completely.
When he woke up again, the sky outside had already turned dark, and bonfires were blazing all around the camp.
He propped up his sore, aching body, scanned the interior of the tent, and discovered that that bastard Huo Shiyan had not yet returned. A desire to take the opportunity and escape instantly welled up in his heart.
However, the moment he rolled off the bed and onto his feet, his legs turned to jelly and he collapsed straight to the floor, making him instantly understand the phrase: The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.
He remembered that this ABO setting was extremely perverted and anti-human.
Not only were there things like a rut cycle, a heat cycle, and marking, but it was also a society fully ruled by oppressive attribute-based hierarchies.
And he had turned out to be the weakest kind of omega!
Thinking back on this entire day and night of humiliation, Chi Ying hammered the ground hatefully, causing a sharp flare of pain in his freshly reset wrist:
“Damn it! Everyone else who transmigrates gets a cheat code; why don’t I get one? This isn’t fair at all!”
[Ding—!]
[Detected a desire for fairness. Bestowing upon you the cheat code: ‘Trial Court’.]
“???!l”
Just as Chi Ying was stunned, a trial court appeared within his mind. Inside the circular chamber was a sealed space.
On the desk at the judge’s bench sat a thick notebook, a black fountain pen, and a black-and-white gavel.
Chi Ying looked around and found that he was the only one here. He asked hesitantly, “Are you my cheat code?”
[Trial Court: Yes.]
An ethereal, gender-neutral voice suddenly echoed through the chamber, wrapping around the space without any discernible direction, emotionless and hollow.
“A cheat code?!”
Upon hearing this, Chi Ying instantly flew into a rage, sitting up abruptly from the floor:
“It’s already been two fucking days! You only show up after I’ve been raked over the coals? What kind of cheat code is this?!
“Everyone else starts off invincible, or else they get to act cool and slap faces like a badass, and you give me this?!”
After a long silence with no response, he looked around the chamber and shouted, “Hey, say something!”
[Trial Court: Should I leave, then?]
My—!
Chi Ying was instantly choked up. Swallowing back the curses he wanted to hurl, he forced an ugly smile:
“Hey, wait! Don’t leave, my bad, okay?!”
Damn it, in this unfriendly B-world, having a cheat code was still better than having nothing!
Suddenly, the roar of a car engine echoed from outside the tent. Chi Ying struggled to his feet and peeked out, watching Huo Shiyan step down from a vehicle. His backside involuntarily twitched.
“Shit, he’s back! Hurry, get me out of here! If he torments me anymore, I won’t be dead, but I’ll be crippled!”
[Trial Court: Detected that you have not unlocked the escape skill. Would you like to complete the activation task?]
Chi Ying was dumbfounded. “What time is it, and you still want me to do a task?!”
[Trial Court: Considering the emergency, the initial trigger task is simple: just loudly curse Huo Shiyan three times.]
Chi Ying didn’t quite understand, but he was willing to accept it.
Disregarding everything else and adopting a reckless, broken-pot-to-shreds attitude, he raised his head and cursed loudly: “Huo Shiyan, you big piece of shit! You big piece of shit! You big piece of shit!”
Huo Shiyan: “…”
All the soldiers: “???!l”
[Trial Court: Congratulations on completing the task. Unlocking escape skill: Shadow Gate (Beginner). Would you like to use it immediately?]
Hearing the sound of military boots drawing closer, Chi Ying grew anxious as a raging fire. “Stop talking nonsense—use it!”
Right as the words fell,
a dark portal of spatial travel materialized out of thin air in front of him. Enduring the aches and discomfort all over his body, he grabbed his clothes and ran right through it, and in the blink of an eye, the portal vanished.
Meanwhile,
outside the tent, Huo Shiyan listened to the cursing, suddenly sensed that the pheromones inside the tent had vanished, and strode inward with a gloomy expression. The interior was already completely empty.
That omega had also vanished without a trace.
He reached out and touched the messy bedding, which still retained his body heat, picked up a discarded pair of underwear with his fingertips, and let out a scoff:
“Hé, looks like he left in quite a hurry.”
The adjutant standing beside him twitched the corners of his mouth slightly at the sight, never expecting that the usually composed and ruthless young marshal would actually make such a frivolous gesture.
Could it be that once he broke his abstinence, his mental channels got unblocked too?
“Young marshal, should we still catch him?”
“Catch him.”
Huo Shiyan’s silver eyes flashed with a cold light. An omega he had already marked actually dared to think about resisting and escaping? That was nothing short of wishful thinking!
…
Chi Ying didn’t actually run very far. The distance covered by a single use of this so-called beginner escape skill was only a few hundred meters, barely enough to clear the perimeter of the camp.
It took him a few tries to master the technique, after which he sneaked quietly into the forest. Suddenly, a chill ran down his spine, feeling as though he had been targeted by a wild beast.
Following the direction of that oppressive aura, he saw Huo Shiyan standing outside the tent, his silver eyes staring directly toward this side, gazing like a hunting beast and precisely locking onto his location.
Chi Ying’s movements came to an abrupt halt, his heels inexplicably turning weak. “He’s this far away, no way?”
To his horror, the moment those words left his mouth, Huo Shiyan chuckled and waved his hand. A fully equipped combat squad swiftly swarmed around to encircle his position, scaring him into turning tail and running.
“Damn it, how did he know?!”
Suddenly, Chi Ying had a moment of realization.
This was a world with an ABO setting. At this distance, which wasn’t considered all that far, the other party must have caught his scent!
“Is he a dog?!”
He sprinted all the way through the forest, coordinating his movements with the Shadow Gate, which finally allowed him to successfully widen the distance.
However, his mental energy fell into an extreme state of exhaustion, making him feel dizzy and lightheaded.
It was only then that he realized this Shadow Gate could not be used infinitely; it likely exacted a toll in the form of mental energy consumption.
After careful deliberation, he had no choice but to endure the discomfort in his lower body and slowly make his way deeper into the forest.
