Amid the sound of the steel crumbling like a landslide and thunder, and the shudder from the despair of the end to the numbness of the blank mind, the expected severe pain that was smashed and swallowed by the distorted space did not come. The high-pitched tinnitus was accompanied by a strong dizziness that passed through the body like an electric shock. After that, the deafening noise suddenly subsided quickly, leaving only a little lingering harsh friction. The temperature in the air also seemed to have changed subtly, the smell. The sour and rotten smell that had been pervading in the middle disappeared, replaced by a familiar faint warmth.
Ethan opened his eyes sharply. The surroundings were still filled with ominous red, the upper right corner of the room was distorted, and the walls made of the most advanced super carbon fiber material harder than steel were pulled together like thin paper balls that had been smashed together, and the color was burnt black. And it is covered with holes of different shapes and sizes, as if eroded by acid. The entire room was stretched toward the upper right corner, and Ethan was standing in the farthest corner, so the ground under his feet was only slightly deformed, and it didn't seem to have much impact on him.
After a long time, he finally made sure that the corruption and distortion did not continue to expand. Only then did he feel pain in his chest, and a breath of breath that had been held in his chest for an unknown time was slowly exhaled. Only then did he realize that he had forgotten to breathe all the time.
He turned sharply and saw that the computer screen behind him had gone black. He looked around at a loss, and tentatively walked out of the room.
The main road of the wide space station outside was no longer recognizable, and there was only a mass of things that were fused together by countless substances, tightly collapsing, like a huge uneven wall standing in front of him. Even the corridor he was in that had not been "infected" was deformed, as if being stretched, and bulges appeared in some places like boiling, the walls were broken and staggered, and the ground was meandering. with huge cracks. Ethan simply doesn't know why the space station hasn't lost pressure and sucked them all into the universe.
He slowly looked down at his body. Since the surrounding substances are deformed before infection, what about people
He hurriedly undid the buttons of his shirt and examined his body carefully. After not seeing anything abnormal, he was slightly relieved, but the back of his neck was always itchy for some reason. He reached out and scratched, and found a patch of skin that was a little hard and dry near the hairline.
At this time, from a distant place behind him, there was a faint voice of a person. His mind was still a little numb, and he turned around and walked in the direction of the voice. He only had one thought at the moment, to leave this place and go to a place where there are people. He moved faster and faster, and finally ran.
The mechanical door that separated him from the other inhumans was still closed, and he rushed over and slammed the door with his fists, opening his mouth and shouting loudly. When he got here, he suddenly couldn't hear any sound. He panicked in his heart. He quickly found a seat that was lying on the ground from nearby, and lifted it up and smashed the door hard.
Suddenly there was a series of mechanical movements on the door. Ethan's movements stopped in mid-air, as if he couldn't react, watching the door slowly rise inch by inch.
The man standing behind the door was blond in white, with burning gray eyes.
Ethan let go, and the chair fell to the ground with a thud, echoing in the wide corridor that was deformed and broken. He opened his eyes wide, suddenly moved his feet, rushed forward in three or two steps, and hugged Tanisel.
It was at this moment that he finally realized clearly that he was saved.
In the last lesson, they pulled the space station back.
It was Tanisel who saved him, and again.
The priest was stunned for a moment, his gray eyes lowered slightly. The person in his arms is taller than human beings, but in front of this Eve Alpha, he can only reach the height of his cheeks. At this moment, he put his forehead on the shoulder of the priest, and the hands around his waist were tightly grasping his back. clothes, as if afraid that he would run away.
Tanisel's heart softened for a moment, and he also reached out and hugged Ethan's waist firmly.
The two of them just stood quietly in a mess, like an oil painting full of decadent and dark style.
Ethan raised his head, squinted slightly to look at Tanisel due to his shortsightedness, and then seemed to have suddenly regained his sanity. embrace, but don't want to retreat too far.
"I want to get out of here..." he whispered urgently.
Tanissell took the initiative to take a step forward this time, took off the outermost white long coat, and draped it on Ethan's shoulders with a hula. When the warmth came, Ethan realized how cold he had been before, but the biting coldness that belonged to Neptune was ignored in the face of the fear of death. Tanithel stretched out his long arms around his body to keep him warm, and whispered, "I'll take you out."
All the way fast, occasionally staggering. When the existential crisis fades, all sorts of previously ignored feelings flood in. His ribs and stomach hurt so much that he might have been injured, and even moving a muscle on his face would make his expression distorted in pain. The only thing that was dispelled was the chill, and the temperature on Tanisel's body, even in the fringes of the solar system, was like a furnace, making him so comfortable that he wanted to sigh.
Coming to the unloading port behind the space station, Ethan saw some soldiers with guns, and the remaining eighteen non-humans were lining up to board a military spacecraft. Ethan thought he should also go over and line up. After experiencing the life and death disaster just now, seeing those people again made him feel a cold hatred from the bottom of his heart, but after all, he was still one of them, and he should take the initiative to pass. What's more, he didn't want Tanisel to send him there.
But just as he was about to move, he found that the strength of Tanissell's arms around his shoulders did not relax.
"You go with me," said Tanisel cut short.
The soldiers didn't stop him, even Gray Mao only glanced at him from a distance, and the snake-like gloomy eyes were still like thorns on his back even at a distance.
Taniser took him to another small spaceship, during which the two did not say a word. As the spacecraft left the space station, Ethan turned his head to look at the scene behind him projected on the ship's bulkhead.
The original spinning wheel-shaped space station has completely changed its appearance, and its original shape cannot be seen at all. The west wing completely collapsed into a cratered piece of indescribable color, and the east wing was more than half destroyed. The huge and solid space buildings had all turned into strange and twisted appearances, like a large piece of melted plastic, only The last section can still vaguely see the original cylindrical corridor.
Neptune reappeared in the universe, along with the massive Tenth Space Station and the starship trails across the night sky like shooting stars. The faint blue light soothed his nerves that were too tense and nearly ruptured. Unconsciously, Ethan fell asleep.
After turning on the autopilot system, Tanissell turned his head and looked at Beta, who was sleeping soundly in the co-pilot, and frowned tightly. The third eye on his forehead was half-open, scanning Ethan's body.
There doesn't seem to be any major variation, but still needs to go back and do some checks.
He had no idea that Ethan would be sent to perform such a mission. He had already negotiated with the Earth Alliance. If he wanted to reopen Project Zero, he would need to keep Ethan. While the Mortal Court of Morality refused to revoke Ethan's inhuman status, at least he was allowed to raise Ethan whenever he needed assistance.
On the red earth, Ethan was irradiated by the egg of the order god, and then came into contact with the god of entropy, which was already very dangerous. Fortunately, there was no irreversible mutation. But this time he was sent to a universe dominated by the power of the entropy god, and he didn't know how much the laws there affected him.
The third eye closed, he didn't feel anything worth noting, Ethan's body structure didn't seem to have changed, but his sixth sense was still hanging in the air, as if trying to remind him, What to watch out for.
But what should we pay attention to
*********
Ethan twitched violently, then woke up.
He had a nightmare, dreaming that he went home, only to find that his house, like a space station, was twisted into a mass of melted plastic. In the clump of plastic, he could still hear his mother playing the cello, while his father stood on the rubble, looking down at him like death, expressionless. Then, his body quickly bent back and stretched, letting out a howl of pain.
His eyes were wide open, and what he saw was the slowly rotating image of the northern lights at the top of the sleeping chamber.
The mattress under the body is soft, the quilt is clean, and it smells a light and warm sandalwood fragrance. He remembered that this was the smell of Chitanisser, and if it weren't for the nose of the Esterman that day, he probably wouldn't have smelled it. He liked the smell, it smelled warm and clean, reassuring.
Looking up slightly, he could see that his pair of glasses, which had been hung up and repaired twice in a row, were placed on the partition at the head of the bed.
He put on his glasses, reached out and scratched the itchy back of his neck, lifted the quilt and got up. Apparently this is a makeshift reception room, with standard space station hotel arrangements - a sleeping pod, a couch, a translucent electronic table with a slight angle, a smart wardrobe built into the wall, and… The bathroom with the door closed.
And, there was an uproar of water coming from the bathroom.
Ethan swallowed.
Who is in the bathroom? Tanisel
Why did he bring himself here? Wasn't he doing a detailed physical examination, writing a report, interviewing him, and then sending him back to the forbidden city
While hesitating, the sound of water suddenly stopped. Ethan's heart sank.
When Tanisel came out of the bathroom, there was only a bath towel around his waist, wrapping his narrow waist and abdominal muscles, and framing his firm buttocks. Wet drops of water dripped from the ends of the slightly curled blond hair, fell on the white and strong chest muscles, and slid down the seductive forbidden fruit.
Ethan felt his cheeks get hot and his throat was dry. He quickly turned his eyes away and cleared his throat, "This is your house?"
Tanissell replied normally, "Yes."
"Why? What about other non-humans?"
"You're welcome."
"what?"
Tanissell stopped wiping his hair, raised one corner of his mouth, and laughed teasingly, "Don't you thank me for saving you first?"
Ethan rubbed his nose.
At this time, Tanisel made another amazing move. First, he threw the towel that wiped his hair aside, and then casually pulled the bath towel around his waist, revealing two straight and slender legs and... That The organs that once conquered his entire body.
Ethan widened his eyes and opened his mouth. After three seconds, he hurriedly turned around and studied the starry sky projected on the wall with great interest. He deliberately raised his head slightly, afraid that it would be too embarrassing to accidentally bleed from his nose.
"You are probably too nervous. You haven't eaten or drank for nearly two days. You fell asleep on the road, and you can't wake up. I personally performed a body check on you. From the results, you have no signs of infection. , the body has not changed significantly, except for a few bruises on your face and body, there is no particularly serious injury." Tanisel seemed to turn a blind eye to Ethan's embarrassment, or deliberately pretended not to see, As he spoke, he put on a dark red silk nightgown, and the soft silk draped down the curve of his body. Ethan was full of thoughts about the night he was on the mother ship.
On the one hand, he was intoxicated in his mind, and on the other hand, he slapped himself hard. Can your mind be clearer, now there are more important things to ask, don't just look at the beauty and drool...
"What do you... want from me?" Ethan clenched his fists and asked as if he had suddenly made up his mind.
Tanisel didn't seem to expect that Ethan's next question was this, and raised his eyebrows slightly unexpectedly.
Ethan pursed his dry lips and pushed his glasses nervously, "In the beginning, on the ship to Red Earth, it was obvious that you were more interested in Samuel. Why did you after that conversation on Red Earth? Suddenly interested in me? I know we had a night, but I'm sure it's just getting what you want. I can't think of any reason why you should rush to Space Station Ten to save me."
