Chapter 2 has been resurrected!
In a special care ward at Fanchang Hospital, the sunlight streaming in through the window was warm and pleasant, yet not glaring.
The dust motes danced lightly in the light, seemingly enjoying the pleasant warmth of the sunshine.
Qi Min sat by the window, quietly watching the crowd below. His eyes looked calm, but upon closer inspection, one could still see the bewilderment in them.
In reality, Qi Min's mind was a complete mess regarding his current situation.
Qi Min remembered that at that time, after using the God-like Card to break through that instance space, just before the one-minute countdown was about to end.
He activated the dimensional card that guy had given him, thinking he could try to see if an independent space could withstand the consequences of the 'pseudo-god' and thus save his own life.
Even if I don't live long, it would be a real shame to die like this. If I can live, I'd naturally want to live.
But the current situation was completely unexpected; it felt as if he had entered another world.
A new world, quite different from my original one.
Could this be a hidden skill of the Dimensional Card?
That was the only explanation Qi Min could give himself.
Qi Min felt that his current situation was like that of a time traveler in a novel.
Hmm, it feels very novel, a bit like entering a new instance, but the difference is that it seems very safe here.
This world, a blend of technology and modernity, felt both familiar and strange to Qi Min.
The hospital staff said he was found in the central part of the Paka Forest.
He was in a deep coma at the time, his body was covered with gruesome wounds, his skin was torn and his body was covered in bruises, and his breathing was weak.
It was a female soldier on a mission who discovered him and rushed him to a hospital specifically built for male insects for treatment.
After nearly half a month of treatment, Qi Min gradually regained consciousness.
However, after searching and comparing the database, they found that there was no information about his identity in the database.
Therefore, Qi Min is now not only a pitiful injured person, but also an unregistered resident.
Furthermore, they now suspect that lawless individuals are privately breeding and trafficking male insects, which is very likely the recent incident involving the illegal sale of male insects.
The wounds on Qi Min's body were likely sustained during his escape.
After all, the central part of the Paka Forest is teeming with all sorts of extremely dangerous mutated beasts.
After all, due to genetic reasons, no female insect would attack a male insect.
Male insects have a natural attraction to female insects, especially given that each male is precious and rare.
In response to their suspicions, Qi Min could only remain silent with the cliché of amnesia.
After all, he is still completely unfamiliar with everything in this world.
He can't exactly answer, "Hello, I'm an alien. You're asking what a human is? Oh, a human from aliens."
According to Qi Min's first rule of survival in dungeons, in unfamiliar environments, you should try to remain silent and play it safe to increase your survival rate.
Based on the information they revealed, Qi Min pieced together a rough outline of this world.
This world is strange, unlike his original real world. There are no women here, only men.
No, that's not right, it's only male insects.
The people here aren't called people, they're called insects! They're further divided into male insects, female insects, and sub-females, with three different sexes.
Qi Min initially couldn't understand why there were three genders, since everyone looked 'almost the same'.
But Qi Min thought about it from a different perspective and felt he could understand it again. In his original world, there was also a third gender, caused by hormonal imbalance, resulting in the transformation into an apricot person.
However, they are not born that way but rather it is man-made, mainly in the country of Siam (another name for Thailand).
The rules and regulations of this world are also very interesting. Male insects are the most 'precious', enjoying various preferential treatments and benefits set by the government.
The male insect only needs to do two things: reproduce and periodically produce a small amount of pheromones.
According to Qi Min's personal understanding, pheromones are likely a type of sex hormone that is continuously secreted.
The primary function of pheromones is to soothe the minds of soldiers who require pheromone comfort.
Qi Min didn't quite understand the underlying principles.
It seems that one needs to accumulate a certain number of battle merits before applying for this, as the number is limited.
Speaking of which, it's worth mentioning that in Qi Min's original world, his country seemed to have a policy that allowed marriage without a household registration book; all that was needed was an ID card.
In contrast to the simplified procedures for marriage, divorce proceedings have become more complicated and difficult, with a cooling-off period, unlike marriage.
Qi Min personally felt that the procedures for marriage and divorce should be switched, which would better achieve the so-called goal of population protection.
Qi Min originally thought this was outrageous enough, but this world is even more absurd. After you become an adult, if you haven't found a marriage partner, the government will directly assign you a suitable candidate!
Oh, it's not just about assigning one person. If you don't meet the birth quota within the government-mandated time, you'll be assigned someone else. They say it's all for the sake of reproduction.
"tsk"
Qi Min couldn't help but click his tongue. This was just like the practice of taking concubines in ancient times, or even being forced to take concubines.
However, not all male insects accept only the mates assigned by the government; some male insects, in addition to marrying the assigned mates, also mate with other males.
Using the government's banner of procreation, they can continue to develop marital relationships with other people, which is not only not illegal, but the government will also support them.
Moreover, the laws here seem to be extremely biased towards males. No one thinks it's wrong to commit domestic violence; on the contrary, they think the one who was beaten is the one who is at fault.
Qi Min discovered this when he went downstairs for a walk after he had recovered somewhat.
When Qi Min returned from his walk downstairs, he saw a rather short man being escorted into the hospital by eight or nine other men of different builds.
One of the well-built men had traces of blood on his body, making him look like he was injured.
Although Qi Min was curious, he didn't go up to join in the fun.
Then a doctor walked over quickly, not even glancing at the blood-covered man.
Instead, she went straight to the shorter man, showing concern and gentle care, and even offered to treat the minor cuts on his fingers with a pained expression.
That's it? The bleeding has already stopped, what's there to do?
Qi Min stared at the wound that would stop bleeding on its own in a little while, his eyes full of confusion.
Qi Min looked around and found that not only the eight or nine men, but even the one covered in blood was frowning and looking at the person whose wounds were being treated by the doctor with a worried expression.
After the doctor finished treating the patient, he came out and gave the eight or nine men outside a good scolding.
Qi Min initially thought that the shorter person had some serious internal injury, but the more he listened, the more something seemed off.
It turned out that the man had been whipping his partner and had cut his finger, which led to the scene Qi Min was witnessing.
Qi Min frowned, finding it absurd. He looked around and saw that the people around him were showing a hint of anger towards the beaten man, as if the beaten man was the bad guy.
Domestic abusers are showered with concern and care, while victims of domestic violence are condemned by the public?
What kind of absurd world have I stumbled into?
Are there any normal people left here?
