Just as Ethan lifted the injection and was about to press it on his arm, Adrian, who had been quiet all along, suddenly let out a terrifying roar like a furious lion, and suddenly rushed forward. His outburst was unpredictable, frighteningly powerful, and happened at a moment when everyone's attention was on Ethan. One soldier clutching the chains unguarded and let go, while the other soldier was turned over by a belt.

Adrian threw down Congressman Aguda, and bit the seam of the protective suit and helmet on the Congressman's neck, and it was torn apart at once. The congressman, who had been calm and composed, let out a harsh scream, unable to get rid of the man who was like a mad dog no matter what. It all happened so quickly that the tentacles behind Ethan pierced the throats of the five soldiers who were trying to shoot Adrian.

But at the same time, several snipers in the distance also fired.

Adrian's body trembled violently, he was shot several times, collapsed and was turned to one side by the congressman, and black blood spread from under his body. However, Ethan screamed in fear as if he had been hit, and threw himself up to block a few bullets for Adrian with his body. When the shooting finally stopped, Ethan dared to move slightly, turned to one side, and gently shook Adrian's shoulder.

The congressman shivered like a frightened little girl and crawled to one side, clutching the crack in the protective suit, crawling up and running away. And Ethan didn't even bother to pay attention to her.

Father lay motionless on the ground, not knowing whether he was dead or alive. Ethan didn't know that his hands were shaking, he picked up his father, carefully placed his head on his lap, and gently stroked his father's cheek with pity, his mouth trembling like his hands. The voice called, "Wake up...don't die...don't die...wake up!"

He didn't dare to look at the multiple bloody bullets on his father's body, but his father's blood was spreading on his legs and seeping through his clothes. His tears fell on Adrian's already swollen face, drawing black traces. Like a miracle, Adrian slowly opened his eyes, and in the depths of those dull and dull eyes, there was still a trace of familiarity that belonged to people. He looked at the child he raised with black tears on his face. Even though he knew what terrible things he had done, he still cried like he did when he was a child.

His tongue was swollen and clumsy, and it was already difficult to speak clearly. The bone-chilling cold gnawed at his skin, as if it would freeze him into ice. He raised his hand, grabbed Ethan's hand, touched it, and said, "Flee..."

This was the last word he uttered in his life.

After that, he took a few quick breaths, frowned as if in pain, scratched like a spasm in his hand, and then he let out a long sigh and stopped breathing.

Ethan noticed that something in his pupils was frozen, and his body seemed to have suddenly lost its support and slumped, and his hand that held Ethan tightly also fell. Ethan couldn't believe this for a moment, his father Adrian Eldridge was dead. Obviously, the memory of his father taking him to the aquarium on his tenth birthday is still as vivid, but in a blink of an eye, his father's body, which had begun to rot and deformed long before his death, was lying in his arms.

Ethan hugged Adrian's body tightly, swayed his body back and forth slightly, and let out a suppressed and at a loss. He hadn't had time to ask anything, and there were so many things that he hadn't made clear to his father, had not had time to apologize, had not had time to ask where his mother was buried.

He didn't even have a chance to call the man in his arms again, Dad.

But in just a few seconds, he even lost his last relative in this world.

He raised his head and let out a mournful howl. Black tears stained his face, making him look terrible and pitiful.

But at this moment, an injection emitting a faint blue glow shot out from the house opposite and pierced Ethan's neck. A burning pain quickly spread throughout his body, and Ethan had to let go of his father and hurriedly pulled out the injection on his neck. Lying in the palm of his hand was something similar to an anesthesia needle, except that it contained a light blue solution of the Sequence God's Egg.

In the pain that quickly burned through his body, he hissed angrily, and then collapsed to the ground unwillingly. After about ten minutes, a team of special forces soldiers approached cautiously, holding a blue-glowing net similar to before. The leader of the team reported to the person at the end of the headset, "He seems to have passed out."

"Very good, give him a full injection right away and bring him back."

When a special soldier walked up to Ethan, holding a thicker injection to give him an injection, suddenly a tentacle covered with thorns shot out from the back of Ethan's neck, which should have passed out, and it pierced instantly. The soldier's face pierced through the back of his head, his brains blooming like blood in the air.

Suddenly, the soldiers backed away in horror, firing at Ethan at the same time. I saw Ethan slowly stand up from the ground, his face covered with black lines, and his slender pupils stared at them with some kind of crazy anger. Behind him, many terrifying tentacles like thorns and giant pythons waved, he slowly raised a finger, the black curved nails like claws pointed at them, "Who shot just now?"

No one spoke, apparently the captain was going to cover the escape of the other soldiers, shooting him nonstop. The bullets went into his body, sending out a stream of black blood. The blood dyed his clothes completely black and gathered together under his feet, but he approached the soldiers step by step as if he could not feel anything.

"I said, who shot my father just now!" There was not much anger in Ethan's voice, but he didn't know why even a powerful Alpha like the captain of the special forces had a chill in his heart.

The tall, brave man shouted angrily, "Go to hell! You disgusting monster!"

Ethan rolled him up high with his tentacles and cut his lazy waist in half in mid-air. Then his tentacles quickly and precisely grabbed the fleeing special forces one by one. Some were directly swallowed by the giant mouth at the end of the tentacles, others had their heads twisted off, and some bodies were pierced from the bottom up. Now, blood and screams were scattered all over the sky.

He was actually very painful. The sequence force and entropy force in his body were fighting fiercely. He felt that he was on fire from the inside out, and the more he used the black power in his body, the more painful it was. But anger and sadness made him ignore everything, he needed blood, he wanted to make these people regret what they did to his father, what they did to him.

He wanted these bastards to be buried with his father.

Hatred filled his body with a layer of black smoke, which seemed to be some kind of substance emanating from his body. All the flowers and plants he stepped on quickly rotted away, all the land he walked on could no longer grow plants, and the bricks and stones he touched were shattered into dust, and steel turned into rust.

Within a few minutes, a team of more than a dozen special forces was almost slaughtered by him.

When his tentacles wrapped around the neck of the last Beta soldier, who looked probably not even twenty years old, his mind suddenly tensed when he heard the poor big boy cry and call "Mom" at the end. He thought of his mother's rotten face, and the way his once-beautiful mother was playing the violin in the sun, and the pain that had been ignored all of a sudden came over him like a mountain. He let go of his tentacles, letting the soldier slump to the ground in fright, and even wet his pants. And he himself fell to his knees, the world in front of him was spinning, and a sense of exhaustion and depression gradually covered his eyes.

Although he didn't want to throw in the towel, to be knocked down by that horrible pain. But after all, he was injured too badly. The solution of the Sequence God's Egg prevented him from healing quickly, and the black blood dripped into a long line behind him.

He lost consciousness.

*********

He woke up, the sun was shining outside the window, the snow-white curtains fluttered in the faint golden beam, and the sun was warm on the eyelids. There is a comforting smell of fish or kelp in the air, and the sound of the waves crashing on the sand like eternal background music. He stretched lazily on the bed, sat up, and put on his glasses from the bedside table, and everything in front of him became clear.

A clean and warm bedroom with a large double bed and soft white bedding. There are unfinished books and a cup of cold black tea on the bedside table, and a rattan laundry basket with dirty clothes is placed next to the wardrobe. The pillow behind him was soft and familiar, while the sheet next to him was slightly wrinkled and had a person's body temperature. Two pale golden hairs remained on the pillow.

He leaned down slightly, sniffing the pillow. The faint smell of sandalwood made him feel so comfortable that he wanted to sigh. A warm throbbing filled his body spread through his body, causing him to smile involuntarily.

Suddenly, a white cat with black spots jumped onto the bed, meowed twice, stepped on his thigh a few times as if looking for a comfortable spot, and finally lay down gracefully and lazily, Start licking your paws to wash your face. Ethan looked at the white cat with some kind of surprise, as if he had never seen it. He tentatively mutes its head while it snorts familiarly, squinting under Ethan's touch.

Outside the window, the beautiful blue sea is slowly shaking at the end of the golden sandy beach, the blue sky is like washing, and the seagulls are flying in groups. Such a dreamy and beautiful scene, but it is normal for him, after all, this is his daily life.

He was suddenly a little lost because he had just had a long, evil and terrible dream. He wished he could hug the person sleeping beside him and find some comfort.

But at this moment, a person walked in through the open bedroom door. He was wearing a comfortable white nightgown and pajama pants, showing a strong, snow-white chest, and in his hand he held a plate with freshly toasted slices of bread, ham, cheese and fried eggs, and two hot cups of coffee, Fuzzy smoke came out, filling his delicate face like a porcelain doll. His blond hair seemed to have just been washed, and the tip was still slightly damp, clinging to his forehead. His gray eyes were slightly curved, and his smile was bright and innocent.

"Slacker, finally can't bear to get up?"

Ethan looked greedily at Tanisel, as if he hadn't seen him in a long, long time. But they live together every day don't they? They came to Armonia a long time ago and bought this cabin. He worked as a secretary at a spacecraft manufacturing company, while Tanisel was a teacher of interstellar anthropology at the university. They adopted this little tabby cat a year ago, and they are discussing whether to adopt another puppy these two days.

Tanissell turned and sat down on the other side of the bed, carefully placing the plate on the quilt. Seeing that Ethan was still looking at him, he couldn't help smiling dotingly, reached out his hand to gently lift Ethan's chin, and gave him a quick kiss on the lips, "What's the matter, you're fascinated by me again? "

Ethan pretended to be angry and clapped his hand away, rolled his eyes, "I just dreamed that you were dead."

Tanisel laughed, "I heard that there is a saying that dreams are a way to fulfill wishes that are difficult to achieve in reality. Don't you want me to die so that I can be a rich widow?"

"First of all, you're not very rich as a teacher." Ethan waved his finger at him with a reasonable gesture, "Secondly, I don't plan to be a widow."

"Oh? Is there anyone but me who can satisfy your masochistic bed hobby?"

Ethan picked up the pillow behind him and smashed it. Tanisel was beaten and laughed, unable to resist. The two nearly overturned the plate. Tanisel grabbed his wrist, pressed him on the bed, stared at him in a very charming way, and said in a sexy voice, "Early in the morning, do you want to eat, or do you want to be eaten by me? ?"

"Why don't I eat you instead?" Ethan also bent his mouth without giving in.

The atmosphere between the two of them gradually became ambiguous and sticky, but at this moment, they heard Xiaobao—their cat licking their mouths, and when they turned their heads, they saw that Xiaobao had already taken the initiative when they were making a fuss. ate ham.

Tanisel let out an annoyed cry, "Ta Xiaobao! Shut me up!"

Xiaobao showed his airplane ears, jumped out of bed like an arrow, and ran out of the bedroom.

"It's all your fault, you see." Ethan regretfully picked up the ham that Xiaobao had bitten. Tanisel approached nonchalantly, and took a bite on Ethan's hand, "What's the matter, you usually hug and kiss it, do you still despise it?"

"...Are you jealous of it?" Ethan asked back with a smile, looking back at the alarm clock on the table, "Oh, it's already so late! My parents will be here at 2 o'clock in the afternoon, and they have to go to the supermarket later. I'm running out of laundry detergent."

"Shall I drive you?"

"You don't have to change the student's paper?"

"I changed it all day yesterday, and I almost died of anger. You want me to change now, won't you really want to murder my husband?" Tanisel said and made a grievance. Gesture, pursed mouth and looked like she was about to cry.

Ethan smiled and shook his head, took a sip of his coffee. The bitter aroma traveled all the way down the throat to the stomach. He turned to look at Tanisel who was smearing jam on the slices of bread, and suddenly wanted to cry for some reason.

And he actually cried.

Tanisel turned to see him, with a strange look in his eyes.

"Darling, there seems to be something... strange things coming out of your eyes?"

Ethan raised his hand inexplicably to wipe his tears, and when he put it in front of his eyes, he suddenly froze.

Those tears were black.

"Is this your wish?" Suddenly, a terrible voice that did not belong to anyone fell from the sky, and everything around him was frozen.

The wind stopped blowing, the curtains stopped moving, the sound of the waves disappeared, and the coffee stopped smoking.

Tanisel is gone.

Ethan couldn't move, like falling into an ice cave. His hands loosened and the coffee cup fell on the bed, but no coffee came out.

He put his head in his hands and shook his head as if evading, "Impossible...Impossible...I don't want to go back...I don't want to go back..."

"I don't want to go back!"

He woke up shouting this.

Around him, a group of people surrounded him. A candle was dyed in their hands, and they wore the emblem of the Benefactors on their chests.

Right in front of him, Chen Zeng was wearing a black robe, with a genial smile on his face as always.

"Welcome back."
