Falling into the Abyss

The cave where the non-human beings were held was a place specially used by the horn people to detain criminals and sacrifices, but now it is also filled with a strong smell of blood and some indescribable excrement smells. There are not many corpses left by the non-human beings. Huge worms that emerged from the ground got into this deep and secret cave, and devoured all the people inside, whether human or non-human, leaving only sporadic stumps and broken arms.But the strange thing is that they didn't touch Taifeng and Jiawen, and they didn't hurt Samuel and Derek who escaped from the altar.

It was as if everyone Ethan was familiar with had escaped this catastrophe.

Holding the long tentacles behind him, Ethan slowly moved into the depths of the cave.There is no ray of light in the darkness, and even without glasses, he can see everything clearly for some reason.There were so many vivid colors in the darkness, and the beautiful colors that had never been seen flowed between the dried blood and meat on the ground. The smell was so sweet after a long time, it actually made him hungry stand up.

He hasn't left this cave for three days. The outside world scares him, but the coldness inside also makes him despair.He opened his green eyes wide to the darkness, as if he could see his humble life flashing before his eyes.He was afraid of sleeping. In his dream, he would return to that ancient and huge city, and his body would be lifted into the air by countless huge tentacles.He saw the endless black ocean beyond the end of the city in the distance, and there was a huge black shadow with an octopus head appearing on the horizon in the distance; he also saw on the other side, above the endless desert, a sky-like A yellow figure as tall as a column looms in the wind and sand; a spider with a height of hundreds of stories trudged through the undulating city ruins, and the hard boulders crumbled to ashes at its feet; there is also a disgusting toad covered in hair, It opened its foul-smelling maw to the emerald sun.

Countless ancient Zergs with higher intelligence than humans crawled on the streets of the city. They hissed and screamed at the feet of those huge monsters, and they were crushed and crushed. The slime of different colors dyed those weird and crazy buildings. It is colorful and magnificent.But they didn't flee, instead, they kept worshiping towards the huge cone-shaped temple in the center of the city.The ground under his feet roared, like invisible giant hands beating drums, and there was a piercing music that sounded like fingernails scratching on a blackboard echoed in his ears.

It was obviously the craziest nightmare, but Ethan in the dream felt at ease.The black cone-shaped pyramid fascinated him, and something surged inside him, urging him forward... forward...

Then the black man appeared, standing a few steps away from him, smiling at him with a weird and evil smile, holding a black thing that looked like a book in his hand.

"Eternity is coming to an end, and the sleeping king is about to wake up," he sang in that melodious deep voice, with maddening swirls in his golden eyes, "Sacrificial lambs, prepare for the last carnival! "

At this time, Ethan's nightmare scene will suddenly change, turning into the blue lake, towering ancient trees with heart-shaped leaves, and fish shadows moving under his feet.The wind blows the white silk ribbons hanging between the branches, causing faint ripples on the water.Ethan never saw Tanithel here again, but Tanithel's breath is everywhere here.With the scary tentacles gone behind him, he would lie on the water with the wind blowing gently on his cheeks, and only then could he take a little breath and know he wasn't mad.

But how far is it?It has become like this...

Afraid to fall asleep, Ethan began to hallucinate when he was awake.In the hallucination, he saw his father walking in from the cave, looking down at him with some kind of cold and disgusted expression.

His heart ached like it was about to split open, but he could only curl up his dirty body.

From childhood to adulthood, no matter how hard he tried, his father always looked cold and alienated.It seemed that no matter what he did, he couldn't make his father proud of him.Just to get an approving smile, he has been living according to the track set by his father. He became the assistant secretary to the director of the Energy Bureau at a young age, and later climbed all the way to the position of secretary general.But he worked hard for 30 years, but he still lost all his father's love the moment he was convicted.

If that love ever existed.

He remembered clearly that after the verdict was pronounced, in the empty hall of the Moral Tribunal, his father looked at him with a cold look at a stranger, and said to him indifferently: From now on, don’t say you are my son.

If the father sees him now, will he regret having his son, or will he show a disgusted and frightened expression and run away like everyone else?

Ethan felt hungry again, and one of his tentacles stretched out as if it had its own consciousness, devouring the not-decomposed corpse in the corner.The sound of chewing flesh and blood in the dark was the only sound, which made Ethan numb and at a loss.

One day, he heard voices coming from the entrance of the cave.He thought it was his hallucination again, but he was a little worried if some horned people came in.He raised his body and saw a beam of light seeping into the impenetrable darkness little by little, hurting his eyes.He stretched out his hand to block the light source, but a faint scent of bitter sandalwood entered his nostrils through the heavy stench.His heart was beating violently, and his cat-like pupils gathered into a thin line.

He heard the sound of approaching footsteps, turned a corner, and he knew that he had been exposed to the too dazzling light in the hands of someone who came.

He heard the sound of gasping, and then the breath stagnated, as if someone had forgotten to breathe.

Ethan was suddenly ashamed and ashamed.He crawled backwards, trying to cover his body and face with his tentacles.

The person who came did not speak, but silently turned off the too bright light source in his hand, leaving only a little weak blue light slowly spreading in the stone room.The dusty beauty of Tanithel becomes more and more distant in such light, which makes people yearn for it.Ethan looked at him through the gap between the tentacles, wanting to reach out and touch him.He longed for the feeling of being touched, the feeling of being hugged, but he didn't dare.

There was no disgust or fear in Tanisel's gray eyes, but there was deep distress.It was different from the compassion that often appeared on the faces of the priests in the past, but a very human intolerance and sadness.He was getting closer and closer, and he didn't care if his white robe was stained with blood on the ground. He knelt down in front of Ethan, and reached out to touch the group of intertwined and wriggling tentacles that wrapped Ethan.

Tanithel's touch caused Ethan to shrink back as if he had been scalded, revealing a green eye of surprise.That tangible touch made Ethan know that he was not dreaming, and Tanithel had actually appeared in front of him.

"Ethan, come out." Tanithel persuaded with a voice like coaxing a child, "I'm here, haven't I?"

The mass of black tentacles squirmed again, like countless black pythons twisted together.Not long after, a human face with thin black lines spread out from it.

Ethan opened a pair of strange cat-like pupils, but he dared not look at Tanithel for a long time.

The priest sighed softly, regardless of the dirt, reached out and touched Ethan's cheek lightly, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, "I like you now, you are beautiful."

Ethan quickly raised his eyes to give him a glance, lips trembling, unable to speak.

He never expected the priest to say that he is so beautiful.

Is it to comfort him?Why is he so gentle to him... Ever since Ethan mutated, even when he was abandoned by Samuel and others in this dark cave, he never wanted to cry.He himself didn't know why his eye sockets were so dry.But now, he felt his nose sour, and thousands of unspeakable grievances and fears welled up in his heart.

"I killed a lot of people..." Ethan heard his voice so dry that he could hardly recognize it, "I'm a monster."

"What a man has to do in order to survive, no matter how cruel, cannot be regarded as evil."

"Aren't I evil like this? Do you know how many people I killed? I almost killed Samuel!" Ethan suddenly yelled loudly, "I know I should die! But I'm afraid of death !"

Beta's desperate roar was like the cry of a beast in a desperate situation.Tanithel's deeply buried heart trembled amidst the mourning.

He has never seen a living human being mutate so successfully in his life. That not-so-strong body can carry so much evil power beyond human imagination.Tanithel wiped away the tears from the corners of Ethan's eyes with his thumb, "Didn't I tell you not to keep alive, fool? If word of your mutation gets out, you will be in danger."

Ethan laughed bitterly.Does he want to say that there is any need to hide?Anyway, he has become like this, unless he rots and dies in this hole, he will definitely be found.

He even regretted why he didn't hide just now, and why he was greedy for Tanithel's warmth.Died quietly in the darkness like this, at least Tanithel would not know how ugly he had become.

However, when he saw Tanisel take out three syringes filled with blue sediment, he couldn't help but hold his breath.

Are the priests serious?So far, is the egg of the preface god still useful?

Seemingly aware of Ethan's doubts, Tanithel said, "Indeed, the chances of success are slim, and it will be very painful, ten times more painful than before. Do you want to try?"

Ethan stared blankly at the syringe in his hand.As long as there is still a glimmer of hope to return to normal, he is willing to endure no matter how painful it is.He nodded vigorously, as if he was afraid that Tanisel would repent.

"Come out then, I need to see your neck."

Countless black tentacles stretched and receded, revealing Ethan's body covered with black fine lines little by little.Tanithel moved closer, his white hands tracing the lines that meander down.And then stretched to the back of Ethan's neck, feeling those crowded tentacles stretching and shrinking behind his back.

Ethan hesitated and grabbed Tanithel's hand, as if he didn't want him to touch those disgusting things.But the priest not only didn't feel disgusted, but there was a kind of intoxicated light in his eyes, and the movements of his hands were as cautious as touching a work of art.

"You don't know how beautiful you are now. It's a pity that you can't keep walking on the earth like this." Once the whispered words fell, the three injections suddenly pierced Ethan's shoulder and neck.Blue was quickly pushed into the blood of black.

Then Ethan goes through real hell.
