A secret meeting is taking place in the first space station, the central provisional government of the Earth Alliance. There is only one large round table in the empty and clean conference room, and around it are eleven comfortable and spacious chairs. In each chair sits a solemn-looking congressman. There are only two chairs. empty.
Among the two empty chairs, sitting on the largest chair is just a projection, the projection of President Abiya. Her real person is far away in a safe fortress outside the solar system, unable to attend the secret meeting in person.
A black-haired female Beta member is speaking: "The messenger of the Eve Sequence God faction has set off with a sufficient number of Sequence God eggs, which are expected to arrive in the next two days. The military is ready, snake The gene tracking system of the Husbands Alliance has also reached the border. As soon as the messenger arrives, it can be launched as soon as possible."
Another Alpha Senator, who was older and looked dignified, said, "I still oppose this plan. The Progenitor's Egg is so powerful that no one knows how much radiation it will cause, and I'm afraid our entire Earth will be doomed by then! "
"Is the situation on Earth better than what you call 'finished'?" Female Beta said coldly, "Besides, you also heard about the situation on the Ophiuchus Alliance side, Ethan Eldridge can't use ordinary method of execution."
"But the earth is the origin of the civilization of the entire galaxy, how can it be destroyed like this?! Not to mention the tracking system provided by the Ophiuchus Alliance, who knows if they have evil intentions!"
"Sean." The President asked the opposing Alpha Congressman in a matter-of-fact tone, "Is there any other reason for your objection other than the fact that the earth is the origin of civilization, which has no practical significance? If so, Do you have any other better solution?"
Senator Sean stared at the President with an incredible look. As the chief senator, the entire family has a lot of power in the government. Even the former president has never spoken to him in such a tone. However, the new president never seems to think that she needs to respect him, The questions she asked him always made him think she was mocking him, which made him very angry, but he couldn't let it out.
Maybe it's time to consider embracing a new president? He thought angrily, but still couldn't answer President Abiya's question.
"Now there is a lot of evidence of the existence of super civilizations, and the president of the Ophiuchus Alliance is not an idiot. They will not come to us at this time. What's more, they are in our territory, if this situation can let them If something goes wrong, it shows that we are all trash, and it is not surprising that this government will collapse." Her voice was crisp and her eyes were sharp, and none of the members present dared to refute.
"That's it, keep a close eye on the earth and let me know if there is any change." After she finished speaking, the image disappeared instantly.
The remaining nine members breathed a sigh of relief and chatted with each other in a low voice.
"I heard that the situation inside Eve Star is also very tense. The heir to the throne has disappeared, and the next successor, Archduke Sagalore, is a goddess. The relationship with the current King Eve is quite tense. I don't know about King Eve. Will the entropy sect headed by it make trouble?"
"The Sagalore family's influence in the royal family should not be underestimated, and recently Eve's domestic public opinion has a lot of opinions on the current King Eve. After all, there is still a minority of entropy beliefs there. In addition, this aid is a referendum on Eve star. As a result, King Eve should not be able to do anything."
"I heard that the gods worshiped by the priests of the Predator sect have manifested to them or something? If their Entropy God can make a monster like Ethan Eldridge, wouldn't the Predator also make some monsters? Bar?"
"Better if they both lose. Otherwise... I always feel precarious when I know those things exist..."
*********
For the first few seconds, Ethan looked at Tanisel in front of him, as if suddenly stupid. As soon as he loosened his hand, the sheets of paper with ancient characters written on them were scattered in the wind.
Tanisel also stared at him with an almost insane gaze, walking towards him step by step. He wasn't sure if he was hallucinating until the priest's hand lifted up and gently stroked his black-lined profile.
Taniser's hand warmed his icy skin. He had done this action to him several times, and it was familiar to him after a long time. Ethan raised his hand and pressed it on the back of Tanisel's hand, and black tears drew long lines from the corners of his eyes.
"You... you're really not dead..." Ethan's voice was a little choked up, a little choppy. In an instant, he seemed to have changed back to the ordinary man who was easily frightened in the forbidden city, instead of the monster that threatened the entire Earth Alliance and even the Milky Way.
Tanissell's eyes were also filled with a dash of moist tenderness. He wiped Ethan's tears with his thumb with pity, as if he didn't mind that his fair skin was stained with the unclean black: "I miss you."
Ethan suddenly stretched out his hand and hugged Taniseer tightly. The familiar smell of sandalwood flowed into his nostrils like a spring, and his broad chest was like a sea of tranquility. The skin under the clothes is tough and real, and the sound of the heartbeat has never been so beautiful.
For a split second, Ethan even had a thought to die now. That way he would never lose Tanithel again.
Tanithel stroked the hair on the back of his head, his sun-like clean and warm breath wrapped around his body, as if driving out the endless darkness in his body. The black lines on Ethan's face gradually faded away, turning into his original face little by little.
"Are you really back?" His voice came from the priest's clothes, a little childish. The priest chuckled, "Yeah, I'll come back to pick you up."
Ethan let go of the priest a little and looked up at the still delicate and perfect face, "Pick me up?"
"Well." Tanisel smiled softly, "Is there nothing worth lingering about here?"
Get out of here, get out of this nightmare, and follow the man who redeemed him.
This is too perfect.
Ethan suddenly had some doubts, "You... don't want me to complete that seance?"
"I've betrayed my beliefs. I'm free." Tanisel traced his brow softly, "I just want to be with you now, to a faraway safe place."
"But... where have you been all this time? I've been looking for you..." Ethan murmured, a deep dull pain in his heart. He thought of his father, of the bone-crushing loneliness he had experienced during this time. This kind of loneliness will make people give up all hope. If he hadn't seen Tanisel again, he wouldn't have known that he was like a walking corpse before, living for a crazy goal.
He wanted to use the so-called acceptance to induce Nyarlathotep to show up, and then use everything he had, including the army he was gathering little by little, to force the Ambush Chaos to take his Tanethel, his his father returned it to him. He knew that even if he was really the son of Nyarlathotep, it would be foolish to really defeat an ancient god that had been in stock for hundreds of millions of years, so he also planned for the worst: if he had to use himself in the end As a sacrifice, as long as he could see Tanisel again, he decided to agree.
At that time, he was not afraid that his original soul would be swallowed up when he was under the spirit of Azathoth, and he didn't think he had much soul left anyway.
But the moment he saw Tanisel, he knew that he had never really lost this last ray of hope. Once Tanithel was seen, he was no longer willing to give his body. Countless hopes, like the new green shoots after the wildfire ignited the prairie, flourished in an instant, and the blood that stopped flowing also ran back into the blood vessels.
He wanted to believe, he didn't want to doubt any longer. So before the priest answered, he had already decided that he would believe what the priest said.
"I remember I went into curvature flight mode and what happened after that I was very confused, I felt like I was caught by something horrible... and then I woke up to find myself in a quarantine area near the Earth Alliance tenth space station. On an asteroid, some Earth Patrolmen from Space Station 9 rescued me, saying that I floated out of Space Station 10. I guess, I may have entered the second universe during the curvature flight, and again It fell out of a crack in the tenth space station."
At this moment, a loud bang suddenly sounded not far away, and at the same time, the flames and airflow of the explosion spurted out from the waste city where non-people lived. Ethan was stunned for a moment and said in a low voice, "Damn it!
Just now Samuel said: If you still treat me as a friend, don't go to those inhumans.
He added: "Those people deserve to die.
How could he not have thought of it? Samuel is planning to avenge his father and Schneider!
Maybe that's why he appeared so close to the Forbidden City, because he was going to find Chen Zeng in the first place!
Ethan hurriedly said to Tanisel, "Samuel! I have to find him!"
Tanisel nodded, "I'm with you."
He rushed towards Rafal Jr. The giant worm also seemed to be frightened to a certain extent, shaking its head uneasily towards the place where the explosion occurred. Ethan jumped nimbly on its back, and reached out to Tanithel. The priest had a surprised look on his face, but still took his hand and sat behind him, "This is... hatched from Schneider's body?"
"Um… "
"It grows really fast." The priest sighed, "As long as another queen hatches, the prophecy will really be fulfilled."
"prophecy?"
"The prophecy of Azathoth's coming. For the core of the universe, there is no sequence of time and cause and effect. The circumstances under which he will come are already determined, and they are all recorded in the holy book of the descendants of the entropic god. Before I That's what was taken from the Fauna. But it doesn't matter."
Although the little Rafael looks bulky, he moves at an amazing speed. But it was too late when they reached the area where the inhabitants lived.
The ground was full of stumps and broken arms that had been bombed beyond recognition. The smell of gunpowder smoke made people unable to open their eyes, and the flames ignited into the sky, dyeing the sky red. After the smoke and flames, gunshots and screams continued. Ethan's mutated sharp vision penetrated the smoke barrier, and saw Jia Wen and others hiding behind a broken wall with guns at the benefactor. People shoot.
Apparently they had premeditated and smuggled bombs on them. But the number of believers is still too large, and they have gradually been pushed back into the corner.
"Stop!" Ethan yelled.
The smoke gradually dissipated. Surrounded by the raging fire, Samuel firmly grasped Chen Zeng and stood on a collapsed rubble, with a knife across the latter's throat. Samuel's eyes were fierce, full of wolf-like brutality and murderous intent.
Little Rafael below Ethan let out a whimper for some reason.
"Don't move!" Ethan's heart tightened, he stood up, and shot dozens of black tentacles from behind him, showing off in the sky like a demonstration, while shouting at those inhumans, "Put down your guns! "
"Great Teacher!" The faithful believers saw that their soul teacher's life was hanging by a thread, and they didn't listen to Ethan's threat, and pointed their guns at Samuel.
Ethan immediately let out a strange howl, and suddenly there were thunderous echoes from all directions. It was thousands of humanoid insects, and they were approaching by the king's order. Ethan's tentacles crossed the sky, and everyone with guns was rolled up by him. The cowardly inhumans have already fled in fear, and the rest are either too frightened to walk, or still want to protect their great master.
"Samuel..." Ethan looked at the Omega who had lost everything but was still strong, hesitated for a while, and finally said, "If you want to do it, do it quickly!"
Samuel seemed surprised that Ethan wasn't going to stop him. He looked down at the ordinary man whose life was in his hands but still didn't seem to have much fear, and his inner anger grew even stronger.
"That's what your followers were like, killing Schneider." Samuel gritted his teeth and said in Chen Zeng's ear.
"I'm sorry." Chen Zeng closed his eyes and said calmly, "But that's not my intention."
"Hahahaha... It's not your intention... You control people by sucking their fears, you are the real monster!" Samuel's words were full of hatred, but his face was filled with tears, "Die!"
His dagger sank into the skin of Chen Zeng's neck, blood gurgling out. But at this time, a believer who was on fire rushed out of the fire, and rushed towards Samuel like lightning. In an instant, Samuel's body lost its balance and fell to the scorching flames below. However, even so, he still did not let go of Chen Zeng. Together they fell into the sea of fire.
"Samuel!!!" Ethan hurriedly stretched out his tentacles to drag Samuel out of the flames, and the man immediately jumped off little Rafael and rushed to Samuel's side. However he stayed.
Samuel had the dagger stuck in his chest, the dagger he used to slit Chen Zeng's throat just now.
How could this be? Didn't he save him already
"No no no..." Ethan hurriedly held down the bloody dagger with his hands, but he also noticed that the color of the blood was a little black.
Samuel held his hand quietly, and a faint smile appeared on his face stained by the fireworks, "Don't do it, it's my own choice."
Ethan was stunned. He shook his head vigorously and said hurriedly, "Tanither is back, he will save people, he will save you!"
"Ethan, after my father died... I was bitten by an infected while escaping from the third space station." There was no fear of dying in his voice, and there was even a light smile, "I I don't really want to be so ugly. Besides, I have nothing to miss." He said, coughing violently, and more blood poured out. He looked at Ethan's face, and suddenly became a little sad, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have betrayed you... I shouldn't want to use you for revenge... I was... I just hated it so much... I hated everyone... Hate this to take everything away world… "
Ethan's lips trembled, speechless.
Infection, infection of his own making...
First Father... Then Samuel...
Maybe... the one who should disappear the most is him...
He held Samuel's hand tightly, watching the Omega, who had been pretending all his life and had been strong in suffering all his life, struggling to breathe, every sip might be the last.
"But... Ethan, I'm glad... to meet you as a friend..."
After saying this, he squeezed Ethan's hand as if he wanted to get up, and coughed hard. Unconsciously, little Rafael climbed behind Ethan, the front end slightly raised, as if looking at the dying man on the ground.
Samuel's eyes also focused on the giant worm for the last time. For some reason, his eyes suddenly widened.
In the end, his expression settled on a slightly surprised expression.
And Ethan didn't know what he saw at the end.
