Alien in captivity

--15--

Chen Yuanxing asked Eden not to reveal his identity to outsiders unless their lives were threatened, and anyone who had seen Eden's identity could not stay.

This is also the choice of Eden in the previous life. After Chen Yuanxing learned all the truth about the matter, he had a rough prediction of Noel's ending in the future, so he wanted to avoid potential threats from the beginning.

Eden had no objection to his opinion, and after the two of them prepared, they went downstairs to Zeng Xiurong's residence.

They didn't take the elevator, they chose the stairs, and the neighbors didn't move, maybe they haven't noticed anything unusual yet.

Going down the 26th floor was not easy, so Chen Yuanxing didn't hold back his pride and asked Eden to carry him downstairs.

He carried two knives with him, both of which were military knives that Eden found from a special source. They were electroplated and made of hard chrome alloy, which was highly resistant to corrosion and wear.

Although the gun was not found, it had already stepped on the spot of a nearby shooting club.

Eden didn't feel tired carrying him on his back, and walked downstairs like flying. There were bloodstains in the stairwell, and sometimes he could faintly hear screams coming from the corridor.

When they were about to reach the underground garage, a mutant who still retained the basic human characteristics but most of the skin was covered with swollen black pustules suddenly jumped out of the corridor. Eden kicked him against the wall, making a loud bang.

Eden exerted all his strength, and the wall was smashed into a half hole. The mutant twisted his body against the wall and howled, and blood and green liquid began to ooze from all over his body.

Eden didn't leave immediately, but stared at it in place.

Chen Yuanxing got down from it, pulled out the saber tied around his waist, and didn't urge him: "Go and have a look."

Iden walked over silently, reached out and grabbed the mutant's jaw, and didn't shy away from the pustules with stinky green liquid on his face, so he grabbed it in front of his eyes to take a closer look at its condition.

It didn't take long for it to stand up, and Chen Yuanxing shifted his eyes to it warily, and asked, "How is it?"

Eden wiped his hands on its clothes, and shook his head calmly: "It's true that the fusion failed."

Guessing that the final decision is made at this time, Eden will not be entangled in this matter.

Chen Yuanxing approached it, and under the gaze of Eden, he accurately pierced the heart of the mutant with fractures all over his body. Then he pulled the knife out of it, and regardless of the blood splashing on his hand, he moved his body and started to limp. Down the last floor: "Let's go then."

The underground garage was pitch black, but it was quiet and there was nothing unusual, but the smell of blood in the air also indicated that a murder had occurred here not long ago.

Eden's vision was not affected in the dark, so he drove the car, picked up Chen Yuanxing whose vision was blocked, and exited the garage.

Originally, Zeng Xiurong planned to go home after he got married, but Chen Yuanxing begged for a long time before agreeing to stay for a while, which saved him a lot of trouble now.

The morning mutation had killed so many people in their homes that the driveways were empty, but soon after they reacted, it would be a dumping ground for cars.

On the road, I met many screaming people fleeing from their homes in embarrassment, and most of them were followed by mutants who had not yet completed their mutation.

Chen Yuanxing took out his mobile phone to record the video with a calm expression.

At a corner, a terrified girl in pajamas rushed out head-on.

Eden stepped on the brakes just in time to avoid crashing.

Chen Yuanxing frowned, and didn't let Eden get off. He took out a spare knife in the car. As soon as he got out of the car, the girl rushed up, clutching his clothes tightly and crying for help.

"My dad...he...he turned into a monster!"

Chen Yuanxing broke off her fingers one by one, put the knife into her hand, and just looked into her teary eyes: "The weakness lies in the head and the heart, what to do is your own choice."

He put aside the girl's hand that wanted to continue asking for help, ignored her helplessness and crying, and let Eden drive past the girl.

The girl tried desperately to grab the car door, but fell heavily to the ground because she couldn't keep up with the speed of the car.

Arms and legs were dyed red in an instant, the girl trembled with pain, she tightly squeezed the dagger that the strange man gave her, tears fell down, she stared at the car that was gradually going away, she She couldn't believe that such a cold person existed, but what happened next made her ignore them.

Her "father" had stiff limbs and walked towards her slowly. Behind him grew more than a dozen sticky black tentacles of various thicknesses. Each tentacle had layers of sharp teeth covered with bright red flesh. Foam and blood, that's her mother.

The injury on her leg made her unable to escape, she didn't understand why everything changed drastically when she got up in the morning, she was still tired of the same life last night, now she hopes to pray that all this is just her dream.

Dad's complexion was pale, his eyeballs were protruding, and his gaze was dull. It made a hoarse and long, vague sound, and the girl vaguely felt that it was calling her name.

She was terrified by the stimulation, screamed and struggled to get up and run away, but was tied up by the tentacles and dragged to her father.

She struggled frantically, instinctively wielding the knife she held tightly, and with the sensation of inserting the knife into her body one after another, as well as the warm blood continuously spraying on her body, she gradually regained her senses.

She looked at the scene in front of her with trembling hands in horror. Her father was already devastated, his face was bloody and bloody from the thorns. While the girl was crying and saying sorry, the tentacles wrapped around her body gradually lost strength and changed with her father's death. Into a cold corpse.

She fell to the ground, choking out of breath, clutching the knife tightly and never let go, finally propped up her body and staggered away from here.

Eden glanced at the girl's disappearing figure in the rearview mirror: "Is that all?"

Chen Yuanxing said, "I'm not a good person, and I'm not interested."

Eden didn't think much about Chen Yuanxing's choice, but just asked casually, human beings are not as good as pregnant bodies in its eyes, and it wouldn't save it if there was no reason.

Chen Yuanxing thought about it but couldn't sit still: "Think I'm cruel?"

Eden nodded sincerely, then shook his head again.

Chen Yuanxing glared at her, and Eden quickly explained: "Dong Jiangkai's moral values ​​seem to be quite indifferent, but I don't feel that way. In my eyes, human beings are just a race to live in, and we have no obligation to save her."

The man sitting in the co-pilot stared straight at its face, making Eden restless, afraid that he might say the wrong thing.

It took a long time for Chen Yuanxing to speak: "The truth? Did you lie to me?"

Eden fingered the steering wheel, his tone slightly dissatisfied: "When have I ever lied to you?"

Chen Yuanxing touched the ring on his hand, and the irritability in his eyes faded a little. He turned his head and looked out the window: "I will do more cruel things in the future."

It stopped the car at once, and Chen Yuanxing turned his head in confusion, his eyes met Yiden's.

It asked, "What are you worried about?"

Chen Yuanxing's body was slightly stiff, he avoided his eyes awkwardly, crossed his hands in front of his chest, and plucked at his sleeves restlessly with his fingers, and finally said in a compromised way: "I'm afraid you think I'm indifferent."

Although he was indeed indifferent, even if he did it all over again, his choice would still remain the same.

Through this, he felt the increasing weight of Eden in his heart, and the emotion he had never had before made him inexplicably anxious.

Eden's eyes are very sharp, and he can always see through his emotions. Thinking of the decision he had made in his heart, he had to be honest with Eden, but he still couldn't adapt.

After hearing this, Eden didn't react, but leaned over, wrapped his arms around the side of his neck, kissed him on the lips, and then restarted the car: "Then I'm just like you, who was watching from the sidelines, what right do I have to think that You're cold and we're all bad people."

The atmosphere in the car eased slightly, Chen Yuanxing snorted: "You are the only one who can speak."

Eden couldn't help laughing.

Zeng Xiurong's current residence is only a 10-[-]-minute drive, but it seems like several hours have passed. Many people who wanted to ask for help were encountered on the road, but they were all ignored.

When they arrived at their destination, they parked the car. Eden prepared the tools he would use later, and went upstairs with Chen Yuanxing.

The mutants encountered during the period were all dealt with by Chen Yuanxing, and he was already stained with a lot of blood by the door.

He rang the doorbell, waited a few minutes for no response, and then made way for Eden to break open the door.

Eden's right hand started to become black and swollen from the fingertips, and finally turned into a giant hand with rough skin. With a loud noise, a hole was punched in the wooden door. Eden reached in and twisted the handle to get out open the door.

Chen Yuanxing went in first, and Eden was alert at the door.

He went straight into the bedroom, and when he opened the door, he saw Zeng Xiurong who was unable to move on the bed.

Zeng Lu was sleeping soundly beside him, Zeng Xiurong's vision was slack, slight changes had occurred in his skin, vomit kept overflowing from his lips, his body was shaking and convulsing, his appearance caught Zeng Xiurong's attention, but it was only the rolling of his eyes.

Chen Yuanxing hugged Zeng Lu aside, sat next to Zeng Xiurong, took out a tissue to wipe off the vomit overflowing from her lips, and briefly explained the current situation with lowered eyes: "Generally speaking, the outside has become a mess now. .Maybe you don’t believe it. This is the second time I’ve witnessed the beginning of this chaos. Last time I failed to keep my agreement with you and protect Lulu, but this time I won’t let go. give it to me."

Zeng Xiurong's face was twitching, her body was constantly mutating, her skin seemed to be being eroded by lava, the severe pain made her unable to concentrate, and a painful moan came from her throat. She heard Chen Yuanxing's long words in a daze, and tears suddenly overflowed from her eyes.

Pustules had begun to grow on the arm, and they ruptured on their own. The sticky tissue that flowed out slowly grew into a soft net-like substance along the skin, and stuck to the clothes. Chen Yuanxing knew that Zeng Xiurong would only live in this room in the near future. Here, type 3 of the whole body mutation.

If possible, he would like to end Zeng Xiurong's life here, let her keep her human body, and end this painful mutation.

Zeng Xiurong's painful moans seemed to be muffled, and Chen Yuanxing hurriedly moved close to her mouth, barely able to hear some words: "I...will... die...Lu, Lu...he..."

Chen Yuanxing squeezed the quilt under his body, feeling a little out of breath, he didn't answer the question: "I will protect Lulu well."

Zeng Xiurong suddenly became excited, her protruding eyeballs stared at Chen Yuanxing forcefully: "No...not..."

She tried her best to grab Chen Yuanxing's clothes: "Don't...leave him alone...protect...yourself, you must...survive..."

"Promise...I..." She choked with sobs: "Quick... Hurry up..."

Chen Yuanxing froze, Zeng Xiurong's completely different request from the previous world made him wonder how to react, but Zeng Xiurong couldn't hold on anymore, the hand holding Chen Yuanxing's clothes fell down weakly, she gasped for breath, her chest heaved violently.

Chen Yuanxing could only respond again and again, Zeng Xiurong heard the response was satisfied, his tense nerves relaxed, and the neglected pain came again, and he no longer had the strength to speak, so he could only whine uncontrollably.

The constant wailing in his ears stimulated him to make the next plan as soon as possible. Chen Yuanxing made up his mind to draw out the saber and pressed it against her chest.

Zeng Xiurong's eyes moved to his chest following his movements. She vaguely understood Chen Yuanxing's thoughts, and raised her hand again, and put it on the hand that was clenched on the handle of the knife.

Finally, under Chen Yuanxing's heavy farewell, she stopped the pain.

When Chen Yuanxing came out holding the sleepy Zeng Lu, Eden knew the matter was over.

They will take Zeng Xiurong's body back, cremate and bury her.
