Falling Into The Abyss - Vol 2 Chapter 124

On the Apocalypse, Ethan did not expect that he would encounter Taifeng.

He hardly needs to sleep now. When the people in the spacecraft enter the sleep period, he will walk alone in the light and shadow corridors, smelling the unique scents that permeate the air from each human being.

Humans don’t know that when they have different emotions, they taste different. But in this spacecraft, it seems that people’s tastes are contagious, and the difference between each person is much smaller than the previous seventh space station. It is a unique one, mixed with fierceness, dependence, strength, strong happiness and hatred, and the helplessness and fear that dominate all of the above under the concealment. This is probably the taste of the so-called human faith?

If the worship of the Eve people of West O’Neill for the **** of entropy is truly crazy belief, the belief here is to paralyze their own drugs when facing unknown fear and despair.

But the taste of this impenetrable faith is not static. Occasionally, he will smell doubt. That’s how he found Tai Feng.

The most important place in the Apocalypse is probably the chapel in the middle of the spacecraft. The big benefactor at the forefront stood a crucifix under the cross, but after the crucifix there was a black octopus-like figure standing, probably the image of the great evil **** they imagined. Looking at the tentacles and the human-shaped body in the center, Ethan had to suspect that the image was based on him.

There are no chairs in the chapel, and everyone kneels on a square cushion to worship. The chapel was usually empty at that time, but Ethan smelled a familiar smell inside.

The unique smell of Omega.

Tai Feng stood motionless in front of the statue, as if in a daze. Ethan walked slowly behind him.

“I didn’t expect that you also joined the Benefactor’s Association.” Ethan’s voice was a little cold.

Tai Feng slowly turned around, his beautiful face was calm, as if he had expected to see him a long time ago, “Nowadays, people who want to survive can only join them, and I just want to survive.”

“Where are the other people in the forbidden city?”

Tai Feng lowered his eyes, “Since your accident underground, the plague first broke out in the forbidden city. The government decided to isolate the forbidden city, and Vasilev began to massacre people who might be infected in the city. Everyone was afraid of being infected. Even people who just have a simple cold will be reported. Only those from the Benefactor’s Association were given preferential treatment and were given a period of observation. So most people converted to the Benefactor’s Association. Later the plague spread throughout the earth. In order to control the epidemic, the alliance put the entire planet into a quarantine zone, and the forbidden city is almost no one. Now it is the base camp of the Benevolent Association.”

“All the guards are withdrawn?”

“No, there are still many guards stationed in the forbidden city, but most of them are believers of the Benevolent Church, and even Vasilev is along with Chen Zeng.”

Thinking back to the chaotic and dirty place in the Forbidden City, Ethan’s heart was mixed. Before he paced to the altar, he picked up the silver wine glass enshrined on it, which was full of red wine like blood. He shook the liquor and asked, “Did you be tortured to extract a confession when you betrayed Samuel and the Chief Guard?”

There was finally some sadness and shame on the face of Tai Feng. He lowered his head. “Vasilev had already obtained the security chief’s DNA at the time, even if I didn’t tell him, he would be over… They said that as long as I was willing to testify, I could give me fifty points of moral value…”

fifty points……

Even if it was a mission like Red Earth, which had no return, it was nothing more than ten.

Ethan laughed low, his laughter was a little sad, “Fifty points, it turns out that the friendship between us helping each other is worth so much.”

Tai Feng murmured, “I just want to live, I can’t stay in the forbidden city”, and he didn’t know whether it was for Ethan or for himself. Ethan raised his head and drank the red wine. The red color ran down the corner of his mouth, as if he was drinking blood. He drank the whole glass in one fell swoop, threw the silver wine glass to the ground, and turned to stare at Tai Feng, “You know I’m on the boat, why don’t you hide? Do you think I will miss my old feelings and forget your betrayal?”

Tai Feng looked at him not without fear, but more tired. He looked older and thinner than before, and he could no longer see the proud light in his eyes when he was in the Energy Bureau.

He said, “I’m not that naive. I also heard about what you did, knowing that you are now different from before. I just want to tell you… I’m sorry.”

Ethan stared at him with an unwavering gaze.

If it weren’t for him to inform, the identities of Schneider and Samuel would not be exposed, they would not be arrested, and the benefactor would not be arrested and lynched, and he would not become that way, and there would be no plague. There will be nothing that happens on Eve, no adulthood, no loss of Tanithel, no father infected, no shot…

But on the other hand, if Vasilev really had Schneider’s DNA long ago, then his whistleblower would be just icing on the cake, and it would not change the ending whether or not he had it.

But even so, such betrayal cannot be forgiven.

The huge black shadow behind Ethan rose up, and the powerful tentacles suddenly wrapped around Tai Feng’s waist. Omega’s heart beat so fast, his body trembling in dying fear, but he didn’t struggle.

“I’m sorry…” he whispered, slowly closing his eyes, “I’m tired of escaping… I knew I couldn’t get out of the forbidden city. I wouldn’t do it… I’m willing to pay for my life…”

“Loyalty without choice is not loyal at all.” Ethan looked at him with a compassionate look, “Give you another chance, and you will still betray us.”

After finishing speaking, another weird tube-like tentacles stretched out from behind him and slammed into the mouth of Thai wind forcefully. Omega’s body twitched uncontrollably in his confinement, and thick black liquid was poured into the opponent’s slender throat.

He heard the sound of Tai Feng being choked, and saw the rising fear in the opponent’s eyes.

He did not intend to kill Tai Feng.

Since that Omega wants to live so, he will fulfill him.

After a minute, he finally let go of Tai Feng, who immediately fell to the ground like a puddle of mud, clutching his throat and retching on the ground. But nothing came out.

“I probably won’t see any changes in the first few days, and I probably won’t feel too comfortable for a while.” Ethan looked down at him and said, “You will leave the forbidden city, and in the future, you will never betray me.” He passed by the poor man trembling like leaves in the wind, and left the chapel.

**********

After three days, they were close to the earth.

Obviously, this Apocalypse has a strong stealth system, and it has not been discovered by several monitoring satellites scattered in the solar system and has attracted chasing troops.

From a distance, the blue planet that is still beautiful but no longer rich is still spinning tirelessly in its orbit. Ethan looked at the cradle of civilization in the universe through the thick nanoglass, a touch of unbearableness rose in his heart.

If the director is really found, if the director is really Nyarlatotepu, if he really accepts the fate he arranged for him.

All this will cease to exist.

Earth, space station, Eve star, Milky Way…

This place will become as dangerous and deserted as the second universe, the stars are rare and far away, and the universe is only filled with endless darkness.

But what does it matter, he doesn’t care. Is existence better than nonexistence?

“Eldridge.” Chen Zeng walked to him slowly, with a polite smile on his face, “Good news, the person you are looking for has gone.”

Ethan rolled his eyes and asked him with his eyes.

“Abel Rose. Because of your involvement, the position was frozen before, but it seems that there are some important decisions to participate in the Energy Bureau. He also disappeared after you disappeared from the forbidden city. Some people say that he was assassinated by the Earth Alliance. . But just a few days ago, someone saw him outside the quarantine area of ​​the Tenth Space Station, when he was riding a spacecraft and seemed to be about to enter the area infected by the Second Law of the Universe.

Tenth Space Station…

Ethan still remembered watching the space twist in front of him, watching the terrible sight of people falling apart and turning into a pool of fleshy water in front of him.

“Then where is he now?”

“No one will see him after the tenth station.”

Ethan looked at him with sharp eyes, “Did you call this found?”

“People who have entered the quarantine area of ​​the Tenth Space Station have never been able to come out.” Chen Zeng said.

Ethan laughed, “The problem is, he is not human.”

**********

When the spacecraft landed, no one knew that the infection had begun to spread quietly among believers.

What Ethan injected into Tai Feng did not mutate as quickly as the one injected into the blond guard before. On the contrary, this infection was more patient and more pervasive. When he coughed, the parasitic spores would follow his breath and float in the air, quietly digging into the body of every believer nearby.

Ethan doesn’t know what this kind of thing will bring. He just relied on an almost primitive instinct to release the rapidly generated things in his body, and pour them into the mouth of Thai wind.

He hopes that these spores will make more people become his kin, and those who call him monsters become his kind.

The spacecraft landed in the desert near the forbidden city, and the black outline of the sin city could be seen far away. There was a faint rancid smell in the air. It used to be very disgusting, but now it smells a little kind. It’s as if he originally belonged to this taste.

The gates of the forbidden city opened wide, like welcoming warriors returning home in triumph. Many inhumans gathered under the heavily guarded city walls. They stared at the people who came back with panic or hollow eyes, and the air over the city was terribly silent.

The atmosphere in the forbidden city changed. Obviously there are no garrison guards from the Earth Alliance, but some kind of suppressed air has become more and more solemn. Ethan saw many faces on both sides that he had seen before. Those people were originally noisy gangsters who grew up on the street. Now they are standing on both sides of the road respectfully, with a humble and cautious look.

But obviously, the fear of Ethan cannot be concealed. They dared not look up at him, and even shrank their shoulders, as if they wanted to retreat.

This feeling of being feared and respected is unexpectedly good.

No wonder people always want to step on other people to climb to the top of power. No wonder even those who are kind-hearted will become tyrants once they get this power of life and death.

Ethan looked around at the people around him, and suddenly said to Chen Zeng, “Where is Vasilev?”

Chen Zeng seemed a little surprised that he would ask Gray Mao, “You want him?”

“Well. I want you to tie him up and bring him in front of me. Also, right here, give me a gallows.” Ethan said, showing a dark and evil sneer, “Don’t you say, I Is it the messenger who brought the doomsday judgment? Then I will be welcome.”
