Falling into the Abyss

Chapter 17 Atonement: Red Earth

Ethan's mind was chaotic and dazed, and his spirit was in a trance.He tightly grasped the priest's arm, struggling to return to reality from the nightmare or sweet dream just now, and return to the reality that was more terrifying than the nightmare.It wasn't until those crazy thoughts finally settled that he finally became soberly aware of his current situation.

He was standing in a corridor, and the walls on all sides were covered with dense black spots, especially at the seams and corners.And he was being surrounded by Tanithel's gentle arms, and a firm hand was behind him, patting his back in comfort, just like when his father comforted him who was too scared to sleep because of hearing horror stories when he was a child like that.Thinking of his father and mother, Ethan felt a sudden soreness in his heart, and blinked vigorously a few times before finally suppressing the turbulent emotions.

Controlling his emotions is the most important thing for Beta, he was taught this from a young age.But since coming to this weird planet, his self-control has become worse and worse.

Is this also the influence of the so-called reproductive mother?

He pushed Tanithel's shoulder, and broke free from the nostalgic tender embrace.He pushed his glasses a little embarrassedly, "Why are you here? Where's your quail egg?"

Tanithel did not correct the nickname he casually gave to the holy object of Eve Star, and even smiled, "The launch is already in progress, and it will take a while to have an effect. I sense that something happened outside. , I found you first."

"Where are the others? Did you know that Jeff ran away? He's in this building now!" Ethan suddenly remembered everything that happened before he was affected by Sabnir's power, and quickly looked around, "We have to Find him quickly! And can you use your quail eggs to restart Gina? Gina will definitely find him, and we may be able to fix the communication system and ask the mother ship for rescue!"

Hearing him talking like a cannonball, Tanisel still seemed not arrogant or impetuous, "It's not enough now, we have to wait until the launch is completely completed. Moreover, I also doubt how much the mother ship can help us."

The second half of the sentence made Ethan's heart tighten, "What do you mean? Does the mother ship even care about you?"

"Did you forget? After the collective disappearance of the pioneer members, the first rescue team also disappeared after arriving. Generally speaking, the rescue team stops the mother ship in low-earth orbit, but the people in the mother ship are also different from those on the ground. People disappeared together."

"But isn't the Magic Flute parked in a far-earth orbit? That kind of distance shouldn't be affected at all? Even if there is any accident, it can accelerate away from the gravitational pull of the red earth in time."

"These are all theoretical statements, but in front of the entropy god, all theories are untenable. Because they are chaotic in themselves, there is no way to control and predict." Tanithel looked up at the gloomy ceiling, "In fact, just now I have already heard it, and other people should be able to hear it if they are not infected by now. There is a heavy muffled sound in the sky. It seems that the mother ship is firing laser weapons at Sabnir. They will open fire, it must be out It's over."

The hope in Ethan's heart has become more and more dim. Hearing what Tanithel said at this moment, his shoulders gradually collapsed.

If even the mother ship is gone, even if they want to escape, where can they escape?

Why don't you just surrender?Why not just accept it?Fusion?

Just like what Roland said, even if he went back, he would just be thrown into the Forbidden City again.Anyway, his father said that he would never admit his son again, and no one would wait for him on earth anyway, so why did he try so hard to survive?

Instead of being so scared and so tired, accept it.

As if grabbing a crack in his consciousness, similar thoughts flooded into his consciousness once again.Seeing that his green eyes were swollen and gradually began to be covered with a layer of light gray mist, Tanithel knew that the situation was not good.In fact, he himself is constantly being invaded by the consciousness of the reproductive mother, and even because of his strong perception, the consciousness he feels becomes larger and more complex, but he has trained himself for many years to maintain a strong consciousness and mind Integrity is the only way to barely support and keep a clear consciousness.

Even so, he occasionally fell into a dark frenzy.

But these earthlings have never been trained at the level of consciousness. For those with strong perception, such as the female Beta, her spirit will be crushed into powder by the consciousness of the genital goddess immediately, and she will be completely dominated by her power.In the period of time just now, probably because of the perception of the existence of the power of the egg of the preface god, the power of the consciousness of the god of entropy suddenly increased geometrically.When he came out of the central control room, he heard continuous gunshots and screams coming from the direction of the lobby.

In addition to what Ethan said, Jeff's body disappeared... I don't know how many inhumans are still alive.

And now, Ethan was clearly reaching his limit.His mental force field weakened and cracks began to appear.

Tanithel shook his heart, and suddenly pressed Ethan against a wall that hadn't been corroded by too many black plaques. He supported Ethan's cheek with one hand, and lifted Ethan's face forcefully with the other hand. face, and kissed it hard.

Ethan was dumbfounded.

The green pupils widened slightly, forgetting to breathe for a moment.

what happened?what happened?

What is the priest doing?

The lips were plundered by the hot breath, and the domineering tongue pried open his teeth and invaded his mouth, teasing his clumsy tongue wantonly.He wanted to struggle, but the priest's hand pinched his cheek domineeringly, and his body, which was much taller than him, pressed his body tightly, making him unable to move an inch.

Finally, Tanisel let go of his lips, and the saliva stuck together into a silver thread for a moment between the two.The priest's silver-gray eyes looked deeply into his pupils, capturing his mind completely.

"You..." Ethan couldn't continue, he didn't even know what the situation was, he didn't know whether he should express anger or other emotions, but the reality was that his mind was blank.

Tanithel looked at him intently, soft blond hair fell on his brows, as if affectionate, "Don't give up so quickly! I don't want you to become like Jeff! I don't care so much about other non-human beings, but I don't want you to become like that!"

Yisenran, he didn't quite understand why the priest had to save him.From the very beginning, it was obviously Samuel that Tanisel noticed, didn't he?Why do such a thing suddenly? "Why? I'm just an ordinary Beta, useless. I can give you those passwords, anyway, once the communication is restored, it will be useless."

Tanithel frowned tightly, looking very angry.He had never seen Tanithel showing such a deterrent scowl before, his eyes seemed to be burning, "Do you think our priests of Eve Star are cold-blooded animals full of calculations? Could it be that I Can't you simply hope that a person can live well?! If you want to hear what I say, I think you are special. Don't think about it, because you, me, and everyone are nothing special. But isn't it special, that is Why did you give up? I thought you would at least not be a coward!"

Hearing the disappointed tone, Ethan felt extremely guilty and ashamed.It was because he was too fragile to give up so easily.He didn't know that this was the influence of the entropy god on him, but he just felt that he was really a waste.

But the priest in front of him, who was as gorgeous and dignified as sunshine, made him inexplicably feel confident again amidst despair.The touch of that strong kiss still lingered on his lips, and he suddenly didn't want to disappoint Tanithel very much.

Consciousness regained its stability, the ravings that had been invading his mind disappeared, and even the tinnitus that he had gradually gotten used to was much weaker.Ethan took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "We have to find Samuel and the others. It's not safe here, the God of Entropy has already started to come in, we may have to abandon the base..."

Hearing what he said, Tanithel's stern expression finally eased a bit.He picked up the flashlight that was dropped by Ethan on the ground, and stuffed it back into the opponent's hand.The corridor is much familiar now, and it is three corridors away from the medical warehouse. No matter how much Ethan thinks about it, he can't figure out where he got separated from Samuel.

Ethan walked ahead with a flashlight shining around, and Tanithel followed behind him.Soon, something appeared in the corridor.

It was a person, four people who were shot in the abdomen and bled all over the place. Looking carefully, it was the old man in his 70s.

Ethan had just helped him write the letter he wanted to send to his daughter not long ago.He stopped in front of the old man's body, squatted down and searched in the old man's arms for a while, found the letter and put it in his arms.Tanithel silently watched him do all this without saying a word.

Immediately afterwards, two more bodies appeared, but they did not die.One of them had already grown the strange insect curled up in the air with a human face, and seemed to have lost consciousness. The other was ripping off his clothes, and kept scratching while screaming in horror. holding his stomach.He is clearly an Alpha, but his belly is as swollen as a seven-month pregnant Omega, with many irregular bumps rolling under the skin, and his hands and face are also covered with dense bumps.

The infection has spread.

The Alpha who kept scratching his stomach saw Ethan reaching out to grab him, but Ethan dodged it.

"Help me! Help me! There's something in my stomach...in my skin!!! It hurts! It hurts!" The man's face was distorted and deformed, and at this moment it looked surprisingly similar to the strange insect, with folds stacked and twisted out of pain In the faint light of the flashlight, it looks like a ghost.Ethan didn't dare to look at him too much, and didn't answer, so he could only walk away quickly.

The further they went, the more similar figures appeared. Some of them lost all their hair, their clothes began to dissolve, and their bodies began to glue together like melted wax into the shape of insects.

And the worst thing is the lobby, where there are dead bodies all over the place.A shivering Beta hiding behind the sofa said that the wounded soldier suddenly started to twitch, and then many bumps began to grow on his skin.Several people in Jiawen said that he had a virus and wanted to throw him out. Another Earth soldier shot impulsively, killing an Alpha leader.So the two sides got into a mess, and the daring non-people rushed up to fight the soldiers, and many were killed, and then everyone ran away. "

This is really the worst situation, Ethan continued to ask, "What about Samuel? What about the Chief of Guard?"

"I don't know where they went. I saw a very large, hairy black bug crawling across the wall over there, the size of a human being. The chief of the guard fired several shots at it, but It couldn't be killed at all, and then the chief guard and Samuel retreated while fighting, and disappeared after a while." Thinking of the bug, the non-human trembled uncontrollably again, and pointed in the direction of the gate, " They seem to have retreated over there."

Tanithel said softly beside him, "Isn't it already forced out?"
