The abyss is an idea, an ultimate virus, a destructive tendency that infects all.
It is not only the sworn enemy of life, but also the destroyer of non-life.
Not only animals and plants can be alienated and distorted under the influence of the abyss, but even mountains, rivers, earth, rocks and oceans without thoughts will go crazy in the face of the erosion of the abyss. When a planet is completely eroded by the abyss, its biggest reaction is self-abuse. Extreme masochism, the masochism that makes every madman terrified, it will fall into storms, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis, orbit changes, and even a man who hits the sun to go crazy, the idea of destruction will control everything, even the entire planet will not be spared .
For example, the earth king in the world of "School of the Dead" now.
This is something that finally dawned on me, but why didn't I think of it at first
Rampaging dead bodies, frequent earthquakes and tsunamis around the world, thunderstorms, typhoons, crazily self-abuse, and the Lord Earth who has fallen into a pattern and cannot extricate himself, aren't these the living manifestations of being polluted by the energy of the abyss
I didn't think of this at the beginning. There are many reasons. The first is naturally because I haven't dealt with the abyss for a long time, so I have forgotten my virtue. The second is the current experience in the world of "School of the Dead". The abnormality of the abyss is actually different from the normal abyssal infection.
According to the knowledge that Sandora once forcibly instilled in me, if the entire celestial body falls into a disaster-prone state under the influence of the abyss, it only means one thing: the infection it has suffered has reached its limit.
The so-called extreme infection is a very abstract concept. To describe it requires more than 300 subjects that I have never heard of and about 700,000 to 800,000 key values that almost made me schizophrenic. Beast can order a set of thirty copies of the "Encyclopedia of the Abyss" from the Ministry of Culture of the Empire, but all you need to know in front of the monitor is one thing: in this case, everything will be ruined, especially life—if If there had ever been life on its surface, they would have perished completely within the first twenty-four hours of extreme infection, not even a clump of protein remained.
But the state of this blue planet under our feet is a bit strange: it has frequent disasters, the sky is falling apart, and it cannot be extricated, but the life on its surface is still alive and kicking. Of course, this needs to eliminate almost all the dead human races.
And there is another point, which puzzles me the most, that is, until now, the Admiral's energy-sensing radar that is painfully accurate has not found any abyssal reactions on the "Earth", making the entire planet self-abuse. So, there is no abyssal energy here
This is not in line with Abyss' usual flirtatious character! They seem to be the kind of people who are afraid that others will not know their arrival, and they will have black smoke wherever they go. ", but why didn't we find any trace of abyssal energy this time
Today is the second day of coming to this strange world, and also the second day of the rescue operation of human civilization. How should I put it, the situation is not optimistic.
Hundreds of New Eden Federation servant battleships brought by the Imperial Fleet, including a large number of Terran battlecruisers, Protos aircraft carriers, and Hercules-class transport ships, have all landed on the earth now, and millions of search troops And nearly 100 million intelligent probes searched the entire planet almost like a dragnet, but after two full days, the number of human survivors we searched and rescued was less than 270,000.
And there are 270,000 dying people.
I can't even imagine what a bleak hell we would face if we came to this world two days later.
Is this human luck or misfortune? I feel very messy and tangled now, just like Prince Hamlet who studied death or life in the middle of the night.
But there is a good thing: as long as the seeds exist, civilization is not extinct, even if it turns into another weird look in the end, at least it still exists tenaciously, maybe the earth civilization will end here, but human civilization may be You can still stand up again. The most important thing for us now is how to let the 270,000 human survivors who are trembling, and more than half of them have been insane, also establish such values. This is not easy. I think we need Some chaplains.
So now I really miss Lilina who traveled through time and space and got lost in a certain corner—of course, what I miss is not her wicked ideas that are naturally dark to the bone marrow, but that girl who can fool Tang Seng into Yihong Courtyard small mouth.
Speaking of which, I don’t know if Elder Tang is used to living in Shadow City now. It is said that he ran into Laura Stewart who came to sell the Bible on the second day of his stay. Blood splattered five steps, I have experienced the almost paranoid piety of that Laura guy—eh? Isn't that forever seventeen-year-old girl bishop the best chaplain
And she absolutely loves to preach to the 270,000 lambs who have just experienced the destruction of racial civilization and are seriously confused. This job has low risk and high success rate, and once it is done, it will be a great achievement. The racial beliefs of the new civilization, this guy is absolutely rushing to do it, so she shouldn't blame Elder Tang who finally took a rest on the way to learn the scriptures.
Just do it when you think about it, and you are idle anyway. The emperor’s special cabin has all kinds of functions, from the 600-inch holographic Tetris projection to the fitness equipment that requires more than ten tons of radial force to pull apart. A well-fed homeless woman prepared everything, and one of the functions is to directly connect to the coordinate-free transmission system of Shadow City: a thing that directly pulls people in Shadow City to her side , I used it to tease little bubbles before, but the result was that it took about two hours to coax the little princess who was scared to cry by myself.
"Lola, Lola? Stewart, your boss has something to do."
"Ah?" The startled voice of a certain "girl" rang out in a hurry, I can almost imagine the look of that fox girl who was startled by the voice that suddenly sounded in her head and looked around blankly, "My lord? Are you here?" Call me? Didn't you go to another world?"
"That's why I called you—are you free now? There are more than 270,000 lost lambs here who need you to redeem. Your task is to fool them into believing that the world is still beautiful, and that human beings are not extinct."
Laura replied very happily: "Of course, Laura will serve her master at any time..."
"Okay, start the teleportation"
"Teleport? Oh wait, I'm…"
A white light flashed.
What did you think of at this time
Combining the words "wait" and "I am" above with the YD gene in the bones of the general public, I estimate that more than half of them have thought of: there should not be a blond beauty soaking in the bathtub* Female, or is it the biggest bishop who is humming a ditty all over his body
If so, it's really worth looking forward to-but unfortunately, this kind of cheesy but equally loving killing scene is not for me...
What appeared in front of him was a... cocoon, to be precise, a large golden cocoon.
If there weren't a pair of girl's feet and a pair of arms holding a comb protruding from under it, I would have thought that a gourd baby would stand up after the thing was broken—in other words, the gourd baby shouldn't have come out of the cocoon, right
"Where is this evildoer?"
At the beginning, I didn't expect how this thing appeared, even ignoring the almost completely covered bare ankle at the bottom, pointing to the cocoon that suddenly appeared in front of my eyes, my first reaction was: huh? Have you traveled through here? Is this a young Pokemon
"My lord, if you have time to laugh at your servant, why don't you come and save me..."
Laura's muffled voice came from the monster's stomach, "I was combing my hair just now..."
Cough cough, in short, dozens of minutes later.
"Lola, let me tell you something." It took a lot of effort to smooth someone's 2.796 Pandora-long hair, and I said righteously, "Your hair really should be cut."
The other party pretended not to hear.
Forget it, I don't have any hope for this great bishop who is seriously inconsistent with the original, and may even come out of a secondary setting.
I simply told Laura the current situation. Although the other party didn't quite understand what Resident Evil and attributes were, she quickly understood what I meant.
"That's it. Now we have found 270,000 survivors. If there are no accidents, this may even be the sum of all human beings in this world. Moreover, their condition is very bad. It is not unreasonable to say that they have a collective mental breakdown. However, at least half of the people we found were mentally ill. The self-mutilation and mutual harm caused by various insanity could not be stopped. Many refugees firmly believed that they would suddenly become dead bodies sooner or later when they were with so many people. So desperately trying to kill the 'excess people' around, they have no trust in our psionic protection force field - of course, this is normal, I just hope you can solve this problem, even if it is to calm them down temporarily That’s right, I don’t want my spaceship to become the last lunatic asylum on Earth, to be honest, I still expect these last people to rebuild their civilization with their own hands.”
"So that's it, I understand." Laura listened to me quietly, with a calmness on her face that I had never seen before, even the faint smile that I called a fox smile that never disappeared. The smile was gone now, and after looking at me silently for a few seconds, the scheming archbishop suddenly lowered his head and clasped his hands in front of his chest.
"kindness??"
"Praying... that's all." After a long time, Laura raised her head, "Pray for those who have died. Maybe in your eyes, the living are more important than the dead, but for me, at least pray for them , After all, this world probably no longer has a home for their souls."
I must admit that this is the first time in my life that I saw sincerity and sadness in the eyes of this fox-like older "girl".
"Huh, anyway, thank you for your hard work."
Suddenly, I faintly felt that maybe this task was not something to be excited about for Laura.
She is a devout believer, no matter how dark she is, this is the only thing that cannot be denied, even if she has a lot of hypocrisy, at least she always follows the teachings of Christianity.
It would be insulting to think that such a person is going to rejoice at the extinction of humanity and the opportunity to preach for himself.
"This is your favor," Laura said calmly, "Seeing that you are working so hard for the strangers in the distant world, I should not stand by anyway—then, please take me to see those poor people Bar… "
Take Lola to the refugee gathering area on the Admiral of the Empire—almost half of the refugees have gathered here, and the most annoying group of people is also inside. They are separated by isolation gratings, and each has its own small area. It makes these people who suffer from severe crowd phobia feel better, but their external aggressiveness still exists.
"I want to take a walk here first to see how they are doing," Laura said in a low voice. "You don't need to worry about my safety. No matter how powerful humans are here, they can't hurt the chief bishop of the Puritan Church in England. You just need to prepare for me." Just a few helpers, such as my attendants left in Shadow City."
I scratched my hair: "I thought you could handle it by yourself."
Laura: "Jesus used twelve"
As a Christian, Aunt Laura, you are too fierce.
According to Laura's request, after arranging to send a group of Christians to help, I left the refugee area, took a taxi and returned to the command hall—eh? By the way, why do suspicious things like taxis appear in my flagship
Although a long axis is hundreds of kilometers, most places need to rely on space transmission to complete the movement within the ship, and occasionally need to take individual fighter planes to the command center next door for meetings. Even a "space warship logistics department" will have "urban planning and construction" The giant Battlestar "Space Department" is full of all kinds of complaints, but the taxi Shenma should not appear in this kind of military ship in theory, right
Which army was the soldier who was renting out to earn money at Lila, the flagship of the Interstellar Alliance just now... Um, well, I guess there is no one else except Sikaro's heavily armored defense corps.
"It seems that you are a little upset, stupid human being," I just complained fiercely about the unscrupulous soldier who was renting out taxis in the spaceship to kill time, and a somewhat cold and alienated voice suddenly sounded in my head. At the beginning, I saw the mercury lamp falling from the sky, and then I sat on my shoulder accurately, "I don't like that woman named Laura."
Alas, just now I was expecting to see the beautiful scenery of the gods and horses, but later I thought, what do I expect from a doll... Although Luo Zhen's figure is realistic, I don't think it is as evil as those wretched houses, so look at it The moment I got a pair of safety pants one size smaller, I was completely calm.
Also, is the mercury lamp used to sit on my shoulder now? Obviously at the beginning, he had to forcefully hold her down.
"Lola, indeed, is a very invisible woman, and it's normal if you don't like her," I helped tug at Mercury Lamp's wrinkled dress skirt, "But she can do it well in most cases. The task—it’s you, it’s the first time I’ve seen you come to me, should I feel honored?”
"Stop being sentimental, idiot," the doll girl raised her head proudly, completely unaware that she had subconsciously positioned herself in the position of a doll, "I just came to inform you that something happened Very unpleasant thing."
The thing that pissed off Mercury Lamp
Sorry, that was too much, because a grumpy puppet mostly has a grumpy expression.
"Hey, what's the matter with your impolite eyes?" "Bang bang bang bang"
This guy is really amazingly sharp, and the little paws are getting more and more skillful in slapping my head. I don’t know if it’s an illusion. It seems that the current mercury lamp has changed a lot from the beginning, although it is still the same. Habitually put on a bad face, especially towards me, she always shows alienation and mean attitude, but it seems that she was just now... expressing her dissatisfaction coquettishly
It's really an alternative way, and I'm afraid she didn't even notice it, well, maybe I'm overthinking it, after all, the other party is the first one I've ever seen who can't get into it under the halo of a dad characters.
Under the "I'm very angry" expression of a puppet, I also roughly knew what the unhappy things about Mercury Lamp were.
To put it simply, it is human survivors, a group of survivors who suddenly emerged from the ground.
After the disaster, 99% of ordinary people on the earth can only choose to wait helplessly to die, but human beings will never lack that one percent of "elites". Without the knowledge of ordinary people, Some long-standing super shelters and some special bunkers built in a short period of time have been activated to protect the so-called "key figures" who are at the top of human society.
This is understandable. When a race is facing the crisis of the destruction of civilization, using this method to preserve the last hope can even be called farsightedness. Even Sandora will praise those who have always been "not The "medium-use" human beings finally made a favorable choice this time. In fact, when the landing force discovered such an ultimate bunker, they were still alive in the bunker (most of the people in this kind of shelter were already dead due to the high density) Turned into a dead body, or turned into organic fertilizer in the earthquake and magma, but a small number of shelters are quite small, even only a few dozen people, and the geographical location is superior, so that the people in them can be separated from the dead body. Many people who survived the "airborne infection" and geological disasters) were brought back to the spaceship by the overjoyed Marines, including a large number of scientists and scholars in various industries. These are the cornerstones necessary for the existence of a civilization , and in the current situation where most of the survivors we found have mental problems, these healthy people are even more precious.
What Mercury doesn't like is the presence of a different kind of person among these survivors...
The elite, of course, includes a lot, um...the so-called high-ranking people, such as politicians, wealthy, successful people, leaders... Although after the end of the world, politics and money have become waste products, but after the disaster broke out In the early days, these people still had a chance to find a way out for themselves, so they were excavated now, and then disgusted to the mercury lamp.
