Falling into the Abyss

Ethan had a dream, dreaming that he was home.The artificial sunlight of the fifth space station floats light and shadows, shaking on the walls of the villa composed of many white cubes. The daylilies in the garden are blooming, and yellow ones are clustered on both sides of the short path.From the window on the second floor, you can see my mother playing the cello, her face is rosy, and she doesn't look like she has cancer at all.Seeing him come back, she smiled at him, vaguely showing his youthful appearance.

Ethan felt a layer of warmth with a touch of sadness in his heart, his eyes were smiling, but he wanted to cry inexplicably.He opened the door of the house and saw his father, Adrian Eldridge, coming out of the bright kitchen with a coffee cup in his hand. He is still tall and handsome in his 50s, and his face is still handsome.He still had that unsmiling look, exuding a strong Alpha aura, and Ethan would still feel scared when his sharp gaze swept over him.

"Dad... I'm back."

Adrian didn't show disgust or anger like he imagined, he simply nodded to him like he did when he was a child, and said to him, "Your mother just baked blueberry pie, in the kitchen. Remember to wash your hands. "The tone was flat, as if it was just one day when he was a child, he just came back from playing crazy with the neighbor's children outside.

However, it was this flat tone that finally made Ethan unable to control himself and shed tears.

Then he woke up.Because he felt someone rubbing the corners of his eyes, he opened them exhaustedly, his brows were tightly furrowed, as if he was overwhelmed.A sharp and severe headache swept through his waking consciousness, and he let out an uncomfortable moan.

The memory returned to his mind, and he suddenly opened his eyes wide, unable to believe that he was alive.

A familiar Alpha scent lingered in his nostrils, and Ethan realized that there was someone beside him. Before he could turn his head, a puppet-like delicate face appeared in his blurred vision, and his golden curly hair was illuminated by the white light reflected on the ceiling. Into a silver halo.

"How do you feel?" Tanithel asked softly.

Ethan reached out and touched his forehead, feeling a thick bandage, "Headache..."

His voice was so dry and hoarse that he could barely recognize it himself.Tanisel walked away, but he didn't go very far. After his footsteps stopped, there was the sound of pouring water.Ethan sat up with his somewhat heavy body, and found himself lying on a clean hospital bed, surrounded by many medical machines, the arms of the medical robots hung from the ceiling and stood quietly aside, the iron-gray walls reflected Looking at the light cast from the ceiling, it is obvious that it is no longer the NO.18 pioneering base on the red earth.

"Where is this?" Ethan asked, took the water glass handed over by Tanisel, and gulped it down.

"We're on the mother ship," Tanithel said.

"Mother ship?!" Ethan let go of his hand, and the water glass fell to the ground with a crisp sound, "We succeeded??"

"That's right..." Tanithel didn't have much happiness on his face, but instead had a hint of preoccupied hesitation.But he quickly smiled at him again, "Thanks to you this time, otherwise we might not be able to drive away Sabnir, and I wouldn't be able to get some of her secretion samples."

Ethan's mind was blank, and he should have been happy, after all, he survived the catastrophe.But he couldn't laugh at all, and even felt a little disappointed for no reason.

He looked around, but didn't see the soldier or the chief of the guard with a gun. "Why am I here?" The implication is, why didn't he be locked up with other non-human beings on the warehouse floor below, just like coming here? same time.And... actually bothering the other party, the priest, to pour water for him himself. It seems that Tanisel has been by his side for a while.

Tanisel suddenly turned around, sat on his hospital bed, and turned to look at him, "Something happened while you were in a coma. We left the red earth in the spaceship we used before and returned to the mother ship, but The people on the mother ship have disappeared, and they may have been swallowed by Sabnir. Your companions have arrested your chief of guards, and they plan to flee."

escape?Escape from the Earth Alliance?

Ethan was so shocked by the news that he couldn't speak, a few words meant too much.No need to go back to the Forbidden City?become free?At the same time, can't go home again?

Tanisel didn't notice his thousands of emotions, "There are three of us Eve left, including me. We don't intend to fight against non-humans, nor do we intend to use the electric shock function in your collar to control You guys. But now there are several problems that have not been resolved. There are barren dead areas within fifty light years around the red earth. Our fuel is only enough for us to reach the earth. If we rush to other planets, we will face the exhaustion of fuel and be lost forever. dangers in the universe."

"Also, our collar and the ship itself have a tracking system..." Ethan whispered, "Can they remove the collar?"

Tanithel shook his head and replied casually, "There are less than ten of you who are not human. Otto, who is best at this technology, is dead. Derek has just hacked into the mastermind of the mothership and modified some The most basic instructions. But the higher central instructions have been encrypted with great complexity, and he hasn't made much progress yet."

"Then what's their plan?" Ethan was so nervous that he didn't realize that he was holding on to the priest's arm until his veins were exposed.Tanithel didn't care much, "They plan to fight it out and sail in the opposite direction to the star field of the Third Reich. And we Eves will temporarily go with you as hostages."

Ethan was stunned for a moment, then bent his knees, buried his head in his arms, and calmed down his thoughts seriously.He raised his head, his green eyes were dead silent, "I always feel that we can't run away."

Tanithel looked at him and suddenly asked, "What did you dream about?"

Ethan was taken aback, as if he didn't understand his sudden change of topic.

Tanithel leaned down slightly, staring at him with a deep and charming gaze, and gently slid his fingers from the corners of his eyes, "I sensed it when you were dreaming. Whether it was this time or before on the red earth you The time when you were controlled by the consciousness of the mother god. Your emotions are so rich...that I find it delicious."

His voice is full of seductive magnetism, and his breath blows in the ears, making the heart tingle.Ethan was at a loss, full of embarrassment.He didn't know how far Eve could perceive, could he see everything he saw in his dream?

This feeling of privacy being exposed made him very uncomfortable, like being stripped naked.He propped his body back a little bit, and countered in a serious and distant tone, "Do you Eve people always like to spy on others like this?"

"It's not us snooping, but the emotions of you people on Earth are too obvious, like an open book, you can't read it." Tanithel had a playful smile on his lips, "However, I don't want to read it." Deny that I like your emotions. Especially... what comes out after peeling away the layers of those emotions on the surface."

There was some inexplicable evil in his narration, which made Ethan inexplicably afraid.

Beneath the surface... what is it?

"I'm looking forward to your performance in the Forbidden City." Tanisel straightened up, put something on the quilt he was covering, and turned to leave.

Ethan's glasses were placed on the quilt. The lenses were obviously broken, but they were repaired with the nanomaterial repair machine on the mother ship.He picked up the eyes and put them on with trembling hands, and the world suddenly became much clearer.

Looking forward to his performance in the Forbidden City...

In other words, from the very beginning, the priests did not think that their escape would be successful.

Ethan's head was still a little dizzy, and he slowly walked out of the medical cabin of the mother ship while leaning on the wall.The entire giant island-like long-range spaceship——Magic Flute is now basically empty, and there is no one in the long corridor.Ethan saw some yellow-white mucus in a corner, he felt sick in his throat, and hurried away.

Most of the non-people are concentrated in the entertainment hall and restaurant. Some people are playing cards, others are playing games, or they are smoking in a daze.When Ethan appeared, Samuel was the first to spot him.

Omega immediately stood up from the chair, strode up to him, and pulled him into a tight hug.That was definitely not a warm hug, but a strong, possessive action.

Ethan was a little confused, and then thought that Samuel was performing, after all, his current identity is Samuel's "pet".

Feeling a lot of eyes on them, Ethan was a little uncomfortable.But he still forced himself to relax and let Samuel hold him.

Finally, the man distanced himself slightly, and raised his face with both hands, "How do you feel? Tanithel doesn't allow me to go in and see you, saying that you have been radiated by the egg of the order god, and I don't know if it will mutate .”

Variation?Ethan instinctively thought of that kind of strange insect, and his hairs stood on end.

God of Prologue...won't be as ugly as the heir of God of Entropy... He would rather hope that if he mutates, he can become a Superman or Spider-Man in the ancient legends of the earth.

"I don't feel anything." Ethan said dryly.

"It's fine." Samuel glanced aside, as if looking in Jiawen's direction from the corner of his eye, and then suddenly held the back of Ethan's head and kissed him.

Ethan instinctively pushed against the opponent's solid chest, but Samuel's strength from boxing training did not allow him to resist at all, brutally biting his lips and prying open his teeth.Ethan heard a few non-human beings whistling and booing and laughing, and he realized that Samuel probably did it for someone to see.

Did someone become suspicious of Samuel while he was in a coma?

So Ethan had no choice but to go all out. He closed his eyes and hugged Samuel's broad back with his back.He clearly felt the Omega's body pause slightly, and he was probably also startled by his cooperation.Ethan wanted to laugh inexplicably, but it was a pity that his mouth was tightly blocked, and the laughter turned into a sob, but he seemed to be enjoying it.

But suddenly, he noticed that Tanisel walked into the entertainment hall.He noticed that the priest was looking at them, his gray eyes narrowed slightly, and there was a trace of unpredictable coldness in his eyes.

At that moment, he suddenly became extremely flustered, with an inexplicable sense of shame.He quickly pushed Samuel's body hard, but the other party sensed his firm resistance and had to let him go.Anyway, the play was almost done, Samuel glanced provocatively in Jiawen's direction, then put his arms around Ethan's shoulders carelessly, and walked towards the sofa he was sitting on just now.Out of the corner of his eye, Ethan glanced at the priest who walked past the entertainment hall expressionlessly. For some reason, he felt like a student who had done something wrong and felt ashamed in front of the teacher.

It's really inexplicable, isn't it just pretending to kiss, and he's nervous?That priest has nothing to do with him?

Probably because...the priest had kissed him before, so he somehow felt betrayed by that kiss?

But...Taniser should just want to break him out of his self-destructive thoughts in that way. How could such a character really want to kiss him, a dull Beta?Why are you so passionate about yourself?Listening to Samuel's various yells while playing cards with another non-human, Ethan fell into deep self-spite.
