After rushing out of the lavender atmosphere of Eve Star, several spaceships appeared from all directions to intercept them, obviously they had received the order to take off when they left the castle. Taniser couldn't get rid of them, and it was difficult to break through the encirclement no matter which direction he went. He gritted his teeth and decided to take the risk, ignoring the master's dissuasion, and rushed towards the ring of meteorites.
He ordered the mastermind to concentrate most of his energy on the shield, sweat oozing from his palms. Theo'Neill's call request appeared in midair again, flashing an urgent red light. He thought for a moment and agreed.
When Theonil saw him, his first words were: Tanisel! Are you crazy! Come back right away, I can spare you this stupid act!
Tanissell tightened his lips and shook his head firmly.
Theo'Neill's eyes gradually turned cold from anger. He seemed infinitely disappointed and sad, bowed his head slightly, rubbed his eyebrows with his hand, and had an unbearable headache. When he raised his eyes again, he looked a little tired and old.
"You fell in love with him?"
Tanisel didn't know how to answer. He has never loved anyone, and he doesn't know what it's like to fall in love with someone. He was lonely since he was a child, but he became a priest at an early age. Although in the years to come, he learned a lot about how to use his unique personal charm to guide the believers, but he never thought that he would have such a thing as love.
He feels that what he has now should not be love. Love should be pure and clean, full of passion, not deceived and exploited from the beginning, nor filled with some kind of faint sadness. So he didn't answer Theonier's question.
The teacher said, "I have taught you for so many years, what an unstable thing love is, any trouble, even time alone will destroy it. You are just an illusion of pity for him, so-called love may also be It is the guilt in your heart that is at work. Are you really willing to break the blood pact you made with Chaos for this illusion that will dissipate at some point? You will regret it soon, but it will be too late! Theo Niel paused for a while, and there was a sense of threat in his coercive eyes. "What happened to the last person who dared to fool Ambush Chaos, have you forgotten?"
Taniser certainly remembers that there was once a king in yellow, the sworn enemy of Nyarlathotep, the priest of the god of entropy, who tried to use the power of the king in yellow to trap an Iraqi who was said to be at the time. The identity of the Fu people haunts the prowling chaos on Eve, and the result is that his main god fails to protect him. In the village on the edge of the forest that night, someone had heard his shrill howl that was not like a human voice, and no one knew what Fuxing Chaos had done to him. When people found him in the forest, he had only one skin left, and his internal organs had turned into stinky corpse water. Thousands of maggots were squirming in the filth, devouring bits and pieces of meat.
Tanisel lowered his eyes, as if he was a little unsure. Theonier continued to persuade him, "Even without you, the spiritual fusion with Azathoth is his inescapable destiny, and he was born for it. You don't have to have any burden at all. Child, I have always regarded you as my own. Son, I don't want to watch you send yourself to hell!"
Tanisel closed his eyes, looking very distressed. Just when Theonil thought that he had finally talked Tanisel, he saw the blond priest move his hand and cut off the connection suddenly.
Then, on his screen, Tanethel's spaceship sprinted toward the planetary ring at a superspeed of ten percent the speed of light.
Countless stardust storms hit the outer cover of the spacecraft, the entire spacecraft shook violently, and the damaged warning lights shook dazzlingly. Tanissell staggered to his feet and walked to the sleeping chamber.
He stumbled, and had to keep his hands on the wall to barely hold on to his body. He felt a strong wave of anxiety in Ethan's heart. He seemed to wake up from a coma and was worried about him. He heard Ethan calling his name over and over in his heart, not even consciously, but instinctively. Even though he knew he was betrayed, Ethan's subconscious still trusted him, which made Tanisel's heart sour.
He finally came to the sleeping room. Samuel seemed to be persuading Ethan to lie down in the cabin, but Ethan was looking anxiously in the direction of the entrance. Seeing Tanisel, he seemed relieved.
"Okay! Let's come! Why don't you just lie down for Laozi?" Samuel pressed Ethan into the cabin, and some floating golden Eve characters appeared, making him somewhat at a loss. Tanisel came over and held his shoulder, "I'll do it."
Samuel snorted coldly, but got out of the way, took off his shirt and got into his sleeping compartment. Tanissell helped him set the sleep time, and the countdown began. Seeing that Samuel had closed his eyes and was about to fall asleep, Tanithel turned and walked towards Ethan.
Ethan looked at him with a very complicated look and asked in a low voice, "Where are you taking me this time?"
"Go to the end of the galaxy." Tanisel put his index finger into his mouth and bit it hard, then gently took off the coat that Samuel had put on Ethan's shoulders, and drew a strange emblem on his left chest. It appeared to be a branch with five branches, three on the left and two on the right. After painting, he put his palm lightly on Ethan's chest and felt the heart beating much faster than the average person.
Ethan looked at his lowered eyes, the dark tide surging in the silver-gray. The priest is not the same as before. He is no longer sure about his life, and he has lost a certain confidence in winning. But the smile at this moment is more real than ever, with an indescribable sadness.
"This Elder Sign may be able to protect you. It is said that this is the emblem of Nordens, one of the most powerful main gods in the pre-order gods. With it, Azathoth cannot hurt you. But I don't know how many such sayings are there. Authenticity..." He said, sneering at himself, how could the omnipotent core of the universe be afraid of a small emblem.
But... he painted it with the blood of Azathoth's servant, which should attract the attention of some of the Prologue. Perhaps, they will help Ethan fend off Nyarlathotep, but it is also possible that they will hurt Ethan, who is a descendant of Nyarlathotep.
He then put his hands on Ethan's shoulders and said seriously, "This emblem may help you block Nyarlathotep, but at the same time it is also very dangerous. If you see the Prelude in your dreams, you feel that they are going to hurt you. , just wipe it off immediately!"
"Um… "
Tanisel suddenly leaned over and kissed him lightly on his forehead, "I heard that the sunset on Moana is beautiful. Live well and take a look for me."
Ethan suddenly had an ominous premonition. Why did he think Tanisel was explaining his last words
But he didn't ask anything.
Time was running out, and Tanissell lay down on Ethan, closed the cover of the sleeping compartment, and set up the program. But he himself turned and walked out of the cabin.
When all the energy is used on the shield to resist the stars, the spacecraft master will definitely refuse to enter the curvature flight mode, which is a safety lock on every spacecraft to prevent the intelligent master from running out of control and performing suicidal behavior. After all, it is entering the curvature. At the moment of flight, there is a certain probability that the spacecraft will be penetrated by the stars.
So he had to temporarily shut down the main brain with the authority of his master and manually control the spacecraft to enter the curvature flight mode. That is, he will enter curvature flight mode in an awake state.
Even for humans with relatively weak mental strength, entering the curvature flight soberly is a suicidal behavior, which is prohibited by all star countries. The last time on the red earth, the inhuman who was punished by Samuel for bullying Ethan and entered the curvature flight mode in a conscious state seemed to have died when he was found. The walls were fused together, and after dissection, it was found that the brain was severely liquefied. I don’t know what kind of horror he experienced in that process.
Compressing the space and then making the spacecraft travel through the vast universe at a speed exceeding the speed of light is equivalent to briefly entering the universe of another frequency, and anything is possible outside the sleeping chamber.
Tanisel is not afraid of his heart, but even if he does not die now, in the future, if he falls into the hands of Nyarlathotep, he will probably only live rather than die.
He didn't even know if he regretted making such a crazy choice, just like he didn't know if he regretted choosing to be Azathoth's servant in the first place. He never thought about what would have happened if he hadn't made those choices, it would have been meaningless.
He could only go on down this dark and bumpy road to meet the possible end.
*********
A little bit of consciousness returned to his body, and Ethan tried several times to lift his eyelids, which were heavy with sleepiness. A strong cold made his whole body twitch uncontrollably.
The cold cut through his skin, and a wave of extreme discomfort and panic rushed over him. The glare of the light made him want to vomit, and any external stimuli made him doubly uncomfortable. He wanted to curl up, but the body that had just woken up from hibernation was uncontrollable and stayed in place stiffly.
In the chaos, he realized that his cocooning period was not over yet.
When he finally opened his eyes, he was shocked to find that he was not in the sleeping compartment, but lying on a medical bed. The ground is clean, the walls are white, and there is a faint smell of disinfectant in the air.
How is this going
He was extremely sad, unable to explain the sadness of the unknown. There is an empty place in my heart, like there is a hole, as if the most important thing has been lost, and even every breath hurts so much. He struggled to sit up, to find someone, he couldn't even remember that person's name for a while, he just remembered he had blond hair, remembered his gray eyes that always kept secrets, remembered His saving hand stretched out from the darkness.
He rolled over from the bed clutching his heart, and his body fell heavily on the ground, making a heavy sound. Although the light was bright and the surroundings were clean and tidy, he felt that there were unknowns and dangers everywhere. He felt that something he had always had on his body had disappeared, and he had become a lonely person, wandering in this dark and boundless universe. He was crawling, but his hands had no strength, and he tumbled on the ground like a fish, looking helpless and pitiful.
At this time, he heard a familiar voice, "Ethan!" Immediately after a pair of strong hands lifted him from the ground, Ethan opened his eyes slightly and looked into the other pair of deep eyes.
Roland
Why is this person here
After Ethan hesitated for a moment, Roland had picked him up and put him on the bed. He tried to ask in a somewhat unclear voice, "Where's Samuel?"
"He's safe, but your spaceship was badly damaged and was intercepted by our spaceship. Samuel has almost recovered and will come to see you in a while."
It seemed to be responding to his words, and just after he finished speaking, he heard a burst of hurried footsteps, and the door was slammed open. Samuel rushed over and pushed Roland away from the hospital bed with a protective gesture to block Ethan.
"Ethan! How are you!" Samuel asked.
Ethan blinked slowly and asked laboredly, "Where's Ta... Tanisel...?"
Samuel seemed to have suddenly become mute, his mouth tightly closed, and after a while, he said, "Let's talk when you're well."
Ethan suddenly grabbed Samuel's arm, and the strength was not as strong as what his current body could emit. The slender pupils in a pair of green astonishing eyes stared at him, "He... in... where?"
Samuel struggled for a while, but Roland behind him said, "He's dead."
Ethan's body trembled, but he still didn't let go of Samuel, "Impossible..."
"Your ship was so badly damaged, it jumped out of curvature flight mode and lost all power, and was pulled into the orbit of a planet. We only had time to rescue you and Samuel, not knowing there was a third person in the ship. ... that ship has now crashed on an asteroid on the border of the Third Reich."
Ethan looked at him blankly, as if he didn't understand what he said. Slowly, two lines of black things flowed from his unblinking eyes. The black blood and tears spread across his face, making his grief even more eerie.
Ethan finally knew what he was missing.
The soul bond between him and the priest was broken.
