Falling into the Abyss

Vol 2 Chapter 18: Atonement: Red Earth (16)

Tanithel picked up a military dagger from the ground that was probably dropped from a soldier and pinned it to his waist. "We better get out too."

Obviously knowing that the base is not safe anymore, but facing the closed door, Ethan is still hesitant and hesitated to step forward. The door had obviously been opened with brute force, and a gap emerged between the two doors.

There was a grieving scream from the depths of the corridor, and Ethan saw a man quickly running out of the darkness, his face completely distorted by fear. It's Otto.

And behind him, there was a flowing black tide. Ethan lighted the flashlight out and shone it on the black liquid, only to realize that it was not liquid at all, but thousands of wriggling monsters. They twisted their swollen faces, scrambling to crawl on the body of the same kind, converging the illusion of flow.

The monsters swallowed up the terrified Beta who had spoken to them just now. They could hear the scream of the poor man, and they could vaguely see him tumbling under countless monsters. Miserable.

"Run! Run!" Otto shouted hoarsely. Tanithel immediately rushed to the door and tried his best to buckle the crack of the door that opened slightly. Ethan also used force in the opposite direction, using all his energy to suckle. In the face of the threat of death, he exploded with a powerful force that he could not normally use, and the gap between the two people's fingers widened little by little. Otto rushed out directly, Ethan followed closely, and after Tanithel squeezed out, the gap narrowed slightly, but he couldn't stop the monsters with extremely soft and flexible bodies.

The first door had obviously been blasted open by the soldiers before, and a cold and sour smell came along with the howling wind. The outside world was pitch black, but a thin outline was illuminated by a blue light source from nowhere. The chunks of meat tumbling in the sky hung down and slowly moved past. Numerous strips as thick as the waists of people hung down from it and hung down to the ground, like thin sticky threads pulled out. Those tentacles were winding and twisting on the ground, rolling up the plants and animals on the ground again and again. Those cylindrical alien creatures wailed and were pulled into the sky. However, there were some strange threads in their bodies that connected to the earth of the entire planet. When they were pulled halfway, they fell down one after another, and hurriedly fled on the ground. .

It turns out that this is why there is only this planet in this dead star field that still has life. All plants and animals are all connected to this planet, and the monsters on that day cannot easily pull them up. .

Suddenly exposed to the entropy **** that shields the sky and the sun, people are as small and fragile as mayfly, not worth mentioning. A certain low sound wave trembled in the air, stirring up the deepest fear in people's hearts. Ethan saw some inhumans running wild in the wilderness, seeming to want to rush to the two spaceships in the distance. They tried their best to avoid the tentacles that were groping everywhere, but they were still rolled up one by one, and they were pulled into the sky into small dots, only the screams echoed, and finally, they were pulled into the heavy ones. Within the meat block.

Ethan was dumbfounded. There were tentacles everywhere in front of him, and even the roof of their base was entangled with tentacles. They will be rolled up anytime! At present, their only barrier is the black sap on their bodies, but it is obvious that the non-human beings who are rolled up know that it is not foolproof.

Otto took a deep breath and swears, "How the **** is this fun!"

After Tanisel turned his attention to the main building, Ethan noticed that the three wireless signal transmitters were all emitting a strange layer of blue. That faint light came from there, and strangely, There were almost no tentacles around the three launchers, and the tentacles that had fallen from the sky bend one after another, as if trying to avoid them.

"Just keep ten more minutes." Tanithel pointed to the three transmitters, "Let's go over there!"

This section of the road is not long, but the black tentacles are densely packed with all the buildings, and there are not many gaps left on the ground. The closer the distance is, the tentacles can be seen clearly. The skin covered with unidentified mucus is very hard and flexible, with hairy barbs and circles of flesh-pink suckers. Those suckers are like small mouths, each wriggling, spitting out more mucus. Those mucus covered the buildings and the ground, making a hissing and burning sound, and the black spread out little by little.

"Hold your breath in the past, try not to breathe!" Tanithel finished speaking, and rushed forward first. His posture is extremely agile and vigorous, just like a real warrior. The blonde hair was flying in the wind, and his light footsteps passed through the gaps between the tentacles. Otto was also dumbfounded.

"My mother, this little white face really has two things."

Ethan took a deep breath, then held it back firmly. Saying "fight" to myself, he also rushed out. However, his movements were obviously not as coherent and proficient as Tanisel, and he hesitated every step. However, those tentacles will constantly squirm left and right when they feel the changes in the airflow, and they may touch Ethan's feet at any time, and dangers are everywhere along the way. When it was the last two steps, those tentacles suddenly waved, like countless giant pythons dancing in front of him, blocking the way to death, and pressing down on him.

At that moment, Ethan had only two words in his mind: it's over.

Just as he closed his eyes and waited for the unknown to come, he suddenly heard a clear drink. He opened his eyes, but he just saw Tanisir leaping up in the sky, and the military dagger in his hand was flashing with a layer of the Egg of Order God The blue light with similar light slammed into the uppermost tentacle.

Suddenly, the tentacles contracted quickly like eating pain, and the other tentacles also retreated. Tanithel grabbed him by the collar and dragged him over, rushing through the encircling circle of the tentacles. Ethan was in shock, but he saw Tanisel panting slightly, his expression firm and calm, and he looked like a soldier at this time.

Is he really a priest?

At this time, Otto was also in trouble. He calculated the wrong position during the last jump and stepped on a tentacle. The tentacles immediately curled up, wrapping around his waist layer by layer like a python. He screamed in fright, scratching his hands in the air. Seeing this, Ethan rushed over and grabbed his hand, but the strength of the tentacles was so strong that Ethan gritted his teeth and creaked, but he was still dragged forward by the strength of the tentacles, and his heels pulled out two lengths on the ground. Long traces.

Otto seemed like a drowning man clutching the last straw. He always looked like he was not afraid of the heavens, but he cried like a child at this moment, "Save me! Save me! Save me!"

Ethan had already used his whole body's power, not only was he unable to pull Otto down, but his whole body was being lifted by the power of the tentacles. Seeing that his foot was about to be lifted off the ground, he suddenly hugged his waist with a strong force and pulled him off. However, this one also made his hand slip, and finally did not grasp Otto's hand.

He only heard the red-haired, always-sufficient, stubborn man let out a long wailing, and was instantly pulled into the air by the tentacles, and was wrapped up and swallowed by countless black meat.

Otto's screams still echoed in his ears, Ethan sat on the ground with his eyes wide open, his mouth opened but no sound was heard. Tanithel suddenly grabbed the clothes on his shoulders and lifted him up. Grey eyes stared at him with a bit of anger, "Next time someone gets caught up, don't do such stupid things again! You think you can grab him Have you ever had Sabnier!"

Ethan felt uncomfortable, and pursed his lips, "Thank you..." He knew that Tanithel was right, but he leaped forward to grasp Otto's instinct. The man couldn't tell him that he had any friendship, but after all, when he was threatened by Tanithel, the man helped him out, and besides Samuel, he was probably the person who talked to him the most in the forbidden city.

After all, he has just become an inhuman, and he still can't get used to many things.

There were actually two Eve soldiers under the first launcher. Obviously, they sensed the power of the Order God's Egg, so they took the lead in hiding. And the other two people were Samuel and the chief of guard.

Seeing Tanisel, the two soldiers immediately showed joy, as if they had seen the backing. Ethan was surprised to see that the two soldiers actually depended on a priest so much. Could it be that spiritual teachers are so much needed in such a strange situation?

Samuel was disappointed when he saw Ethan and Tanithel. Ethan guessed that Samus probably felt that if the two of them died, no one would know his secret as an Omega... Although it was understandable that he thought so rationally, Ethan still felt as uncomfortable as eating a fly.

However, the next moment Samuel’s disappointment turned into some kind of relief. He strode over and pulled Ethan away from Tanithel, "Where did you go!"

Ethan didn't know where to start, but just glanced at Tanisel, then whispered, "Otto is dead."

Samus frowned, and was speechless for a moment, his fists clenched tightly and punched the solid metal body of the transmitter.

Around them, a faint blue light diffused into a small island of security in the dark. Outside that aperture, countless dancing tentacles filled the space between the heavens and the earth, searching for all possible food hungry. The original beautiful beige hair of the two Eve soldiers was messed up at the moment, and they were talking to Tanithel in Eve language with some kind of panic. Tanithel put away the cold expression previously exposed, softened his empty gaze, gently pressed the shoulder of the female Alpha soldier, and replied a few words in Eve.

Has he always been like this? Switch freely between different emoticons?

Sometimes compassion, sometimes gentle, sometimes cold, sometimes... even evil.

Which one is the real Tanithel?

Ethan heard the priest mention the name "Shabnier", and then the two Eve soldiers looked even more desperate. One of them even knelt down and buried his head in his arms. Tanithel persuaded him in the galactic lingua franca, "Don't be afraid of the goddess of genitalia. Even if the **** of entropy is difficult to measure, it is our other half of the faith. If you are not afraid of the **** of order, why should you be afraid of the **** of entropy?"

Yes, why are people longing for order by nature, but so afraid of the unknown and chaos? Maybe...is chaos good?

Maybe, after death, will you really go to a better place?

The security chief suddenly looked at Ethan, interrupting his thoughts floating in an unknown direction, "Hey, you, do you know what's going on?"

Ethan glanced at Samuel, who nodded slightly at him, indicating that he could tell the chief of guard. Ethan then briefly talked about Tanisel's theory of the **** of entropy and his plan to expel Sab Nicholas with the egg of the **** of order. The chief of the guard's brows tightened as he listened, and finally muttered, "What kind of mess..."

Ethan asked Samuel, "What about the others? Are they all dead?"

"I know that Chen Zeng and Jiawen also escaped with their people, but I don't know where they went." Samus said in a flat tone.

But at this moment, Tanithel's whole body suddenly stiffened, and the other two Eves also changed their faces at the same time.

Ethan suddenly felt that the Eve people were like weather forecasters, and every time they showed this expression, it was nothing good.

Looking along the eyes of the Eve people, they saw that in the sky not far from them, the black flesh began to squirm, twist, shrink and hit violently. Then... the sky slowly opened, as seen in the video.

It's like a huge mouth slowly opening.

However, when it opened wider and wider, Ethan realized that it was not a mouth.

The black meat hovered up, and in the innermost part was a dense, protruding red thing that was constantly swaying and twisting in all directions in an abrupt way, reflecting a disturbing crystal luster. Somehow, Ethan also thought of the compound eyes enlarged by the fly, but every small eye in the compound eye was movable.

This imagination suddenly made him realize that this might be just an eye.

An eye of pure evil and chaos.
