Falling into the Abyss

Non-people started asking questions. They were no longer satisfied with the perfunctory remarks their "boss" told them. They wanted to know what happened, especially after finding out that Jeff had been ordered to quarantine by Ethan. The ten inhuman bosses who had talked with Tanithel's secret were so exhausted by the question, they had no choice but to smoke with their partners. Cowardly non-people gathered around Chen Zeng, talking about the weird dreams they had had during the short two or three hours of sleep.

Ethan sat in a hidden corner behind the sofa with his knees on his knees, quietly listening to the conversations of the Betas. He found that many of these inhumans were complaining about having nightmares and not sleeping well, saying that they saw a place like an extremely huge ancient city in their dreams, and they would fall into the abyss if they walked in it accidentally. Chen Zenggao said inexplicably not to believe what he saw in dreams, because when people are weak, they are most easily controlled by the devil. Believe in the Lord's care for them.

The woman Beta, who had been unstable before, was lying alone on the sofa, mumbling to herself, holding something that seemed to be a pendant tightly in her hand. If you get closer, you will hear her muttering the same words all the time: she is coming, she is coming, she is coming...

Ethan felt very tired. The long-term anxiety and nervousness made him overwhelmed, and he almost hoped that everything happened quickly, so that at least he didn't need to worry anymore. He wondered why Gina still considers him the highest authority owner. Didn’t Derek fix her communication system last night?

Or... Derek didn't really fix it? Or is it deliberately not repaired?

He couldn't help but glanced at the big young boy who didn't know where he found a game helmet and was playing fighting games in the lobby. He recalled that he had tried to merge his brother's consciousness with the robot dog's consciousness. Incredible. Why would such a talented teenager do such terrible things? What a pity...

But after another thought, maybe this is what the government wants? In this way, they are tantamount to having a genius, and they can make him do things without paying him money.

And the priest...

He is always attracted to that priest, but on the other hand, he is afraid of him.

It's not that he has never seen the priest of Eve before, after all, the Eve-Speaking Earth Alliance has a good relationship. Every time an envoy wants to visit some resource development zones on the earth, they must accompany him. The priests are also tall and beautiful, and they speak elegantly, just like Tanisir, but there is something unfathomable and evil in Tanisir. It's not clear that the way is unknown, just hanging above his perfect appearance. The layer of veil, sometimes makes him feel that it is just his own illusion.

It was just by chance that the enthusiasm that burst out from those ethereal silver-gray eyes did not belong to an ordinary priest.

Samuel has passed on the word, and everyone stays together. Once they noticed something abnormal in the sky, they immediately applied the foul sap they collected last night to their bodies. Each of them was holding a bottle of that liquid in his hand, and a few words about the huge monster in the sky had leaked out, and they were panicked. At this moment, all non-human necks received subtle electric shocks, and at the same time the communicator in the ears sounded the voice of the chief security officer, "We have landed, and are now coming to Base 18, ready to give us Open the door."

Ethan ordered Gina to turn on all the cameras facing the outside of the base. The scene of the red field was mapped on the smooth and white walls of the hall, and even the image of the red herb plants was projected on the floor, making them seem to be outside. In the distance of the wilderness, another saucer-shaped spaceship was added to their original small spaceship, and a dozen small spots were coming towards them. Since Derek hasn't fixed the communication system yet, they can't see their appearance, but they are almost certainly the soldiers and the chief of guards who are responsible for looking after inhumans.

Ethan was about to order Gina to open the door, but was held on his shoulder at this moment. He looked back, but Tanithel did not know when he came behind him.

"listen."

Seeing the flash of excitement in his eyes once again, Ethan had an ominous premonition. He listened attentively, and finally noticed the subtle sound disturbing in the scope of infrasound, which was as difficult to detect as uninterrupted tinnitus in the ears. But the voice was getting stronger a little bit, and gradually made him feel a little dizzy.

It's as if something is getting closer.

He couldn't distinguish the source of the sound. It came from all directions, permeating from between every molecule in the air and from the ground under their feet. Suddenly, a series of unfamiliar images flashed across his consciousness suddenly.

The huge city lost in the ancient times, the weird sharp-cornered buildings that do not belong to any planetary style, the blood-red sky has some huge black shadows slowly moving by, and the dark green creatures in the city are all scattered and fled. In a huge swamp, countless frog-like creatures stretched out their hands towards the sky, greeted the arrival of something with a sharp, piercing ecstatic voice. They shouted repeated syllables: ah-ga-ha-shha-bub-ga-neh-gahha-sa.

These images of inexplicable invasion made Ethan cold into his bones. The huge stone walls that stretched to the sky at an impossible angle were full of evil symbols. He saw the limbs of the green men bulging and ragged, and the green blood flowing in the street. , Flowing like a river, flowing into the huge torn mouth in the distant sky...

He whispered, and tightly covered his ears with his hands. The other non-humans have obviously heard it too. Many non-humans with weak willpower are already limp on the ground, and the others are also covering their ears. Even if they are as powerful as Samus, they look around in horror, and their shoulders can't help but shrink. Only Chen Zeng still showed amazing composure, although a cold sweat appeared on his forehead.

Tanithel, his perception ability is several times that of humans. At this moment, he has no expression of fear. On the contrary, his face is cheerful. The gray eyes that originally appeared ethereal seem to be in some kind of intoxication at this moment. In the dream. Ethan heard him murmur, "Sabnir...the great mother goddess..."

Almost at the same time that the images of the invasion went out, the sky in all directions suddenly began to dim rapidly. The red seemed to be absorbed by something, and clusters of black quickly penetrated and spread. On the distant horizon, huge black masses surged behind the silhouette of the mountains, as if they were gushing out at any time.

Samuel Otto Derek and the others yelled almost at the same time, "It's started! It's started! Put it on!!"

Ethan immediately opened the cap of the bottle in his hand, and the strong smell of carrion suddenly made him unable to open his eyes. He took off his glasses, poured the liquid in the bottle into the palm of his hand, and smeared it on his face and body. The oily liquid was sticky and slippery, dripping all over his body, and instantly he smelled like a rotting corpse for more than a month.

Others who were more straightforward just picked up a bucket and poured it out, some who couldn't react but were still stunned. I saw Chen Zeng carrying a bucket of black liquor in one hand, and throwing his hand at the silly person, this behavior was very efficient, and it also made the entire hall a mess.

Ethan looked back and saw that Tanisel hadn't done anything yet, and quickly picked up a bucket of unused black liquor, followed Chen Zeng's hand, and smeared it on the priest's face. For a moment, the priest seemed to be drenched with ink from head to toe. His body stiffened, and after a while he slowly raised his hand and wiped his face, revealing a pair of eyes that had restored their usual appearance, and stared at Ethan angrily, "You ..."

Ethan looked at the glamorous priest with a smug look at this moment with dirty water that smells worse than stool, and finally felt that he had reported the grudge he had in the sample analysis room before, and he was so refreshed that he wanted to laugh a little. But reason told him that first of all, they were dead, and second, the priest seemed to be angry, so it was not appropriate to laugh at this time anyway. He resisted, threw the bucket away and yelled, "Who makes you look foolish all the time."

At this moment, the entire sky has rapidly dimmed. Accompanied by the piercing long sound, the surging black thing burst into the air like lava from a volcanic eruption, rolling and squirming across the entire sky.

Now they finally knew what was in that video.

It is not dark clouds that obscure the sky, but a solid, fleshy thing. It doesn't have a fixed shape. In some places, it's jelly-like jelly, gurgling softly, and in other places it looks very hard and dry, with traces of cracks. Some sarcomas continue to protrude and shrink back, and some faint red, dark light penetrates the black and gray skin, and the spreading network of black blood vessels carries a certain vigorous pulse, spreading all the way to the horizon.

At this time, the mother ship in the far-Earth orbit also observed a mass of black things spreading rapidly on the surface of the red earth. The speed had broken the laws of physics, and the formation seemed to envelop the entire planet. The experts in the mother ship had their mouths grown and couldn't believe what they saw.

It... seems to have suddenly appeared from the surface of the Red Earth. At that moment, the magnetic field of the Red Earth was disturbed, and a strong earthquake occurred locally. Then the thing seemed to be squeezed out of a non-existent point near the surface.

It is not that people can't see these naturally, they just watched in amazement as the vast sky above their heads was completely covered in a few minutes, Hera's red light was completely blocked, except for the red light between the huge tumors in the sky. , Only the headlights built around the base are lighting up. At this time, at the edge of the headlights' reach, they saw someone running in the direction of the No. 18 Pioneer Base.

Those reinforcements!

They were yelling something, running so fast, it was not as fast as humans and Eve people could reach, turning back while running.

They are running for their lives, something is chasing them?

Ethan's eyes widened and saw a black striped object suddenly leaning over behind a soldier running at the back, hooking his waist. In the next instant, the soldier didn't even have time to make a sound, and was drawn into the endless darkness behind him.
