Falling Into The Abyss - Vol 2 Chapter 110
Roland stood silently in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass of the Starwind lounge, looking at the seemingly motionless starry sky through the thick nanomaterials. The scarlet liquid swayed in the wine glass in his hand, sometimes flowing into his mouth, staining his lips red.
The starry sky looks so peaceful, who can think of the **** storm that blew between the stars?
At present, a terrible plague has erupted in the Earth Alliance. The infected person will grow a kind of black blisters all over the body at the beginning, and the whole person will become very bloodthirsty. If they want to eat raw meat, they will actively attack all living things and even Cannibalism. Later, their skin began to melt and deform, and tentacles-like organs would grow on their bodies. The whole person looked like a huge caterpillar crawling on the ground from a distance. In the end, most of them burst and died. Only a few survived, but all Can no longer be regarded as human. And anyone who is splashed by their body fluids will also be infected.
Infected Person Zero is a blond guard who is a survivor of a few underground massacres in the Forbidden City. Before he became ill, he said that he was caught by the “tentacles” of the “monster” Ethan, and another “tentacles” poured something into his throat. He went mad without warning, attacking several guards and inhumans, and those who were attacked by him were immediately infected. The plague first broke out in the forbidden city. The committee urgently dispatched troops to blockade the forbidden city, but it was too late. Some infected guards hid their injuries and took out the forbidden city and brought the infectious disease to other space stations.
Blocks of isolation have been set up, and the Earth Alliance is now the most vulnerable moment. The Ophiuchus Alliance, which claims to be a humanitarian star country, took the opportunity to send a rescue team to join the Earth Alliance with teams from other countries. This is one of the few opportunities to investigate the internal conditions of this closed country in an all-round way.
Fortunately, before the outbreak of the plague, the Earth Alliance wanted to secretly execute Chen Zeng and brought him out. It’s just that people were taken away by believers who had been prepared during the transportation. Behind all this is actually the Ophiuchus Alliance. Their informants reported confidential information like the time and route of Chen Zeng’s transfer, and they were responsible for disseminating the news to the believers in the Earth Alliance, and Provide them with weapons and equipment in the name of foreign companies. The outbreak of the great plague on the Earth Alliance further confirmed the so-called “four horsemen” in the bible quoted by the Benefactor’s Association that came before the end of the world-plague, war, famine, and death.
Now that the plague has begun, the war is about to start. Coupled with the fact that Ethan’s appearance at the time of mutation has been spread by many survivors of the underground massacre, people increasingly believe that the Great Evil God is indeed about to come. The believers of the Benefactor Society have increased rapidly, and the government of the Earth Alliance has also become increasingly nervous. The Earth Government explicitly prohibits people from collecting any propaganda brochures or books about the Benefactor’s Association. It is not allowed to talk about Chen Zeng, the Benefactor’s Association, the Great Evil God, or even any words about Christianity on any occasion. Anything that is monitored will be detained. value. The ethics court even encourages neighbors, friends and relatives to report to each other, and each person who reports can get a moral reward of about five points.
But the more suppressed something is, the faster it will grow. Especially religion, which is an irrational and inflammatory ideology. When people face the terrible plague, the fear of their dearest person desperately trying to eat themselves, the fear of seeing their children turn into a black bug, and the fear of being locked in a quarantine area and waiting to die Their fear and despair swallowed them. They couldn’t get redemption, and their hearts were full of resentment, so they had to seize the last trace of comfort, hoping that their sincerity could impress some power above all else.
Without this hope, people will go crazy.
Their informants said that at present, several space stations in the Earth Alliance have been completely isolated, and people on other space stations are panicking. The earth kept silent about the true situation of the epidemic, but said over and over in the news that “the plague is under the control of the epidemic control center, please don’t panic and actively cooperate with the management” such empty words that no one would believe. All those who have access are escaping to other star countries, and those who have no access have to gather in the middle of the night to pray to the gods and to the photos of Chen Zeng. Some people are even praying to the image of a man full of tentacles painted by an underground artist for forgiveness and pardon from the evil god. This image has become a representative of the great evil god, and the original form is obviously Ethan Eldridge.
Roland understood the importance of Ethan. And the Eve’s plan also learned a lot from Samuel. He did not believe in the religion of the Eve people, nor did he believe in nonsense such as Entropy God Order God. But he knew that other universes did exist, especially the second universe that had caused big trouble. The great plague is also real, and if the information is reliable, it will start from Ethan.
Roland sighed. When I saw Ethan for the first time, the other party was wearing a clean and tidy gray suit, with neatly combed hair and a pair of silver-rimmed glasses. He looked gentle, with a slightly introverted smile on his face. He never thought that this person would become a monster with tentacles on his body.
I still remember the sudden changes in Ethan’s body after he woke up from a coma yesterday and learned that the priest named Tanithel was dead. Thinking of it now, he would still be sweating, and I’m afraid he would have nightmares at night. Some black things flowed out of Ethan’s eyes, followed by a wailing like a wounded beast, almost at the same time, suddenly countless black tentacles shot out from behind him. Those things were covered with crippled barbs and flagella, and even opened and closed huge mouths at the top. He and Samuel were curled up almost at the same time, and then thrown out of the medical room. Then the door of the medical room was closed, and no one can open it anymore.
All the cameras inside the medical room were broken, and the last shot the crew saw was that Ethan was wrapping himself layer by layer with those tentacles. It’s like a cocoon.
Panic spread on the ship, and people believed that the “great evil god” was in their ship. Roland didn’t expect that their faith in the Benefactor Association planned by the Special Intelligence Bureau had already begun to spread in the Ophiuchus Alliance, and couldn’t help crying or laughing. However, he didn’t know whether Ethan was carrying a plague virus, and the situation was beyond his control, so he ordered Starwind to return to the Ophiuchus Alliance immediately.
He, who didn’t believe in the so-called Great Evil God, also began to waver.
If there is a super civilization that far exceeds any civilization in the galaxy in other universes, I am afraid that all star nations will face a catastrophe. They must put aside the historical conflicts and ideological confrontations between each other and prevent possible invasions of the outer universe.
And Ethan… should I get rid of him?
Roland has been trained by various terrifying agents since he was a child, and his heart has long been as cold as a rock. But pushing this man into the fire pit again and again made him feel a little bit intolerable and guilty. But he is just a weapon after all, and how to deal with Ethan in the end is still up to the superior.
“Report sir, our spacecraft will enter the port in an hour. The headquarters requires us to go through quarantine procedures and may be in isolation for a few days.” A beautiful female Omega officer reported to him.
Roland nodded and smiled charmingly at her, “I see.”
However, she didn’t leave immediately, she seemed to hesitate to ask something. Roland motioned her to speak with his eyes.
“Sir…that…thing in the medical room…everyone is scared…Should we use Robot 3 to enter for disinfection?”
Roland shook his head, “No, that person is very important. Keep the medical warehouse locked down, and someone will deal with it when the spacecraft arrives.”
At this moment, Samuel, who had been hiding in the corner quietly since just now, heard their conversation. He frowned, turned and left gently.
He didn’t know the past entanglement between Roland and Ethan, he just thought in his heart that the Ophiuchus people just liked to pretend to be friendly, in fact they were no different from the Earth Alliance.
Two Ophiuchus soldiers were guarding the door of Ethan’s medical room. Samus approached quietly and knocked one down. The other wanted to raise a gun and shoot, but Samus hadn’t even had time to aim. He seized the gun and stunned with the butt. Samuel took out a breathtaking ball from his arms, which was the same one that Tanithel gave him before.
He quickly got in touch with a person.
Derek, the face of the genius boy who has been quietly helping the Earth Alliance government, even though he was locked up in the forbidden city, appeared in mid-air and looked at him indifferently, “Where are you now?”
“It’s still the Ophiuchus Starwind, we are about to enter Hong Kong.”
Originally, it was impossible to realize real-time communication based on the distance between them, but fortunately, the advanced spacecraft of Starwind was equipped with a curvature information transmitter, and he only needed to find a way to remotely follow the same way as when he was on Eve. Just connect to the transmitter’s network.
Yes, in Eve, he has already used the Sphere of Life to get in touch with the Earth Alliance. And the reason why he was able to break into the basement of Tanithel’s house was because Derek was helping.
This time progress is also very smooth, the only risk is that it may be discovered by the Ophiuchus. So call quickly.
“Derek, I need the code for this door. It is the medical room, the one on the second floor of the Starwind.”
“Give me five minutes.”
The call was interrupted, and Samuel waited on his left and right for a while, and he heard the door click, and the fingerprint identification lock had been opened. He pushed the door hard, but found that he couldn’t push it at all.
what happened? Hasn’t the door lock been hacked?
The alarm sounded suddenly, and the main brain was instructing someone to try to break into the quarantine area. Samus knew that things had been revealed, but did not intend to give up. He tried his best to push the door, but it didn’t move as if it were sealed. Soldiers rushed over from both sides of the corridor. Samuel turned around and threw a punch, knocked down one in twos, and turned around, kicking and kicking the other. Roland rushed over, and as soon as the two met, they knew they had met each other. Samuel fisted fiercely, full of evil spirits, while Roland was cautious and steady, not showing any flaws. When the two of them fought, no one dared to get close at will, nor did they dare to shoot rashly, otherwise they might accidentally injure their chief.
“Samuel! Have something to say!” Roland shouted while defending.
Samuel sneered. “What do you want to do to Ethan?”
“It’s just that the government wants to inspect him. This is a routine matter!”
“Check? Did you use a knife to dissect and check it slowly? You hypocrites!”
Just as the two people both pulled each other’s wrists and were in a stalemate, suddenly the door of the medical room opened.
Everyone froze in place, and the faces of the soldiers showed panic and horror.
A slender hand stretched out from the crack in the door first, pushing the door wider, and then Ethan slowly walked out of the darkness. He wore the simple robe of the medical room, exposing a large area of ruddy and shiny skin, and the rosy emblem was still faintly visible on his chest. The original thin figure seemed to be reborn, returning to the place before entering the forbidden city. This kind of well-proportioned compact body, full muscles hung under the white skin, the sickly gray is no longer seen. His appearance has not changed, but his dark brown hair is neatly combed and shiny, his lips are more rosy, a pair of blue pupils are emerald-like secluded, and the slender pupils inside add a trace of magic.
He is still Ethan, but it feels different. He became unexpectedly good-looking, the whole person seemed to glow with a new life, and Roland and Samuel were also a little dumbfounded.
Ethan might have the best look, it should be like this now. After the cocooning period, the Tianqi star people will have a short and most beautiful time, probably now.
But he didn’t laugh, cry, or express any expressions, but looked at the chaotic scene calmly. Ethan felt that his body was full of vitality, full of new life, and he had never felt full of strength and potential like now. But there was still a dead silence in his heart.
“Samuel, don’t fight.” He said in a flat voice, “They want to check, so let them check.”
