"Do you know you are wrong?" Xia Lian asked.

Mercury was silent for a moment and said: "There is indeed a misjudgment. I should leave faster and avoid causing unnecessary losses and expanding the impact."

"The impact you have caused is not small." Xia Lianda said.

"I am willing to accept punishment." Quicksilver said.

Xia Lian closed his eyes and murmured softly, "Let's talk about it after I wake up."

But after a few minutes, he opened his eyes again and said doubtfully: "Why can't I fall asleep at all despite being very sleepy?"

He looked at Mercury on one side.

Mercury glanced through the data in his mind, "Psychologically speaking, this is a manifestation of your anxiety."

"How to relieve it?" Xia Lian closed his eyes and said, "I remember that AS can regulate dopamine to relieve stress."

"Then it's best to use it when necessary." Mercury said, "Too many artificial adjustments will cause people's emotions to become weaker and weaker, and it will also be harmful to the body."

“So how do I relieve my anxiety?”

Mercury didn't answer, but Xia Lian could feel someone crawling beside his bed. He opened his eyes and looked to one side in shock.

Mercury was lying on his pillow, looking at him with a pair of clear and watery eyes.

The eyes of both sides are less than twenty centimeters apart.

"What are you doing?" Xia Lianda said.

"The way to relieve emotions is usually to find ways to let the brain naturally secrete dopamine." Mercury said seriously, "Hugging is the best way to secrete dopamine."

"Is that so..." Xia Liandao, "Then turn around."

Mercury turned around silently.

Xia Lian got a little closer to her, put his forehead on her back, put his right hand around her slim waist, and closed his eyes.

"It feels... it seems to be of some use. Did you spray some perfume? You smell so good..."

After Mercury was silent for a moment, she said, "That is the hormone emitted by the mimic organ, a kind of pheromone. It has no smell, but can be sensed by people."

"This is...surprising to me..."

"When the human transformation project was established, it was very controversial because it was an unethical experiment, and the researchers were also deeply tortured.

They have tried every means to allow the transformed people to live as normal people at any time."

"Yeah...."

The voice of the person behind him became smaller and smaller, and his breathing gradually became calmer.

Mercury also gradually fell silent, her eyes quietly looking out the window not far away, a little confused in her eyes, and she was communicating with another self in her brain.

【Turn on body self-check.】

[Body self-examination in progress...The body is in good condition.]

【Why do hormones emit?】

[It is initially determined that the intake of pheromones produced by male hormones stimulates the host's central nervous system and begins to secrete dopamine and endorphins, producing star impulses.

Star impulse causes the estrogen index to rise and emit higher amounts of hormones than normal, which is the normal physiological operating mechanism of the body in normal mode.

The host can satisfy the hormone through starvation or directly regulate hormones.】

Mercury was about to reply that she would undergo hormone adjustment, but then she seemed to feel something uncomfortable and twisted her body awkwardly.

"Your Highness..."

"Don't move, it will be worse if you move." Xia Lian whispered softly.

"mercury."

Xia Lian opened her eyes, "I'm not anxious now.

But the embarrassing thing is that now there is another emotion that makes it difficult for me to sleep, what do you think I should do?"

Mercury turned on the scanner with some confusion and scanned Xia Lian's status, and then she said, "It may be that you have taken in too much female pheromones, which stimulated your central nervous system.

Wait while I adjust your and my hormone levels."

"I think there is actually another way to solve it." Xia Lian leaned against Mercury's hair and whispered in her ear.

"Mercury, remember today's lesson, never climb up on your own initiative in the future."

Mercury turned his head and looked at Xia Lian who was close to Chi Chi, with a bit of confusion and uncertainty in his eyes.

....

"Everything has been cleaned thoroughly. No dust is allowed in any corner. There will be many important guests coming here in a few days."

Teresa walked on the corridor and said to the maids who were cleaning around.

The maids mopped the floor, carefully wiped the vases, and cleaned the corners of the palace. Although in terms of title, Xia Lian was only a grand duke.

But in terms of size, it surpasses any emperor on earth. This new summer palace, both in size and internal luxury, far exceeds any palace in the earth's era.

So cleaning is naturally troublesome.

Theresa walked on the corridor and soon reached Xia Lian's room. She stretched out her hand to open Xia Lian's door, but stopped halfway.

She raised her head and looked at the door with some confusion, as if she wanted to see what was going on in the room through the door. Some melancholy sounds came to her ears.

She retracted her hand very wisely, and then said to the other maids.

"His Highness's room will be cleaned tomorrow. Before that, don't go in."

"yes."

....

Xia Lian slept very comfortably that night. She slept until dawn, and the warm sunshine shone on Xia Lian's body through the gauze curtains.

He leaned on the bed and quietly looked out the window at the entire Sun City.

After the space route was opened, some spaceships could still be vaguely seen sailing in it. They were guests preparing to attend his enthronement ceremony.

Xia Lian silently touched the short silver-white hair of the sleeping man next to him.

"You understand psychology." Xia Lian whispered.

He did sleep well last night.

She was still sleeping quietly. Although transforming a human being did not require a long period of sleep, the brain was still a living organism and sometimes needed rest.

Moreover, if you don’t rest for many days, fatigue will gradually accumulate.

Then, Xia Lian turned his head and looked at Mithril standing beside the bed.

When Xia Lian woke up, she was standing beside the bed.

"What's wrong?" Xia Lian asked.

"Mr. Einstein is looking for you. There is some trouble in the frozen soil." Mithril said.

"What trouble?"

"I'm not sure. You may have to go and see for yourself."

Xia Lian frowned and thought for a while. Then, he yawned slightly and got up from the bed. The micronano particles began to expand from the bracelet on his hand, and then spread to all sides, gradually forming clothes to cover him.

He got off the bed and walked towards the portal...

Not long after Xia Lian left, Mercury also gradually woke up. She got up from the bed with some confusion. The sheets slipped off, and the spring light appeared, and her collarbone was delicate and attractive.

But she didn't care. Instead, she subconsciously searched for Xia Lian's presence. She looked around.

"Where is Your Highness?"

"Going to Yongyexing."

Mithril said, she looked at Mercury and asked with some doubts.

"Is there something wrong with your body?

I just searched your body and found that your brain had a big burst of dopamine not long ago, and your brain state was similar to when you took hallucinogens.

Then, the dopamine state drops, and your brain begins to secrete oxytocin again, which makes you very relaxed and releases a large amount of endocannabinoids and prolactin, which is why you fall into a deep sleep.

Were you accidentally injected with drugs? Or did the last injury damage your brain?"

"None of them." Mercury said.

Mithril tilted her head in confusion.

But Mercury didn't answer her. Instead, she stepped down from the bed. The micronanometers quickly filled her body and followed Xia Lian into the portal...

When Xia Lian opened his eyes again, he was standing on a wooden platform.
