Falling into the Abyss

After asking these words, Ethan felt like a heart was **** with a thin silk thread and held in the air. The sensitive flesh and blood and nerves are tightly restrained, unable to beat. He was a little afraid of the answers he might hear, but could he not ask.

Although he has nothing, he still fears that history will repeat itself. Such outstanding Alpha like Roland and Tanisel suddenly favored him such a plain Beta. It will make him flattered as if in a dream, but it also often means that this favor may not be because he is a good person. Charismatic people. He also held the delusion of a young man, comforting himself that there is an Alpha who likes Beta like him, and believing that he is the lucky exception.

Then reality slapped him fiercely, opened a **** hole, and swallowed his entire life.

Tanisel took out a bottle of whiskey from the freezer hidden in the wall, and two glasses automatically filled with ice cubes. The amber liquor made the ice cubes rustle in the glass. While pouring the wine, he said, "Because you are important to me. When I was helping you and Samuel, I said that one day I will need you to do me a big favor. That's not empty talk. Now I It’s just like borrowing money to help you, and you will have to return it to me one day."

Ethan frowned and shook his head, "But I'm just an inhuman, and I don't have any special skills. I am not as good as Derek in terms of brain power, and I am not as good as Samuel in terms of reaching out. I can't think of what I can do for you."

The priest handed a wine glass to Ethan, and the latter couldn't refuse the leisurely action.

"Project Zero, must be a name you will never forget, right?"

Ethan's hand holding the wine glass trembled, and his lips moved slightly in confusion.

Mass production of antimatter has always been a dream of every star country in the galaxy, but has always been strongly opposed to it. The energy released by a small cup of antimatter is enough to surpass the current most powerful nuclear weapons. Using it as a raw material, a weapon can be manufactured that can destroy stars in an instant. And its use is not only limited to the military, with antimatter, people can break through the current speed limit of curvature, rush out of the galaxy and expand into the far-reaching universe. It can replace nuclear energy, and only a little bit is enough to maintain the energy consumption of a star country for a year, greatly alleviating the energy crisis. It's a pity that the process of extracting antimatter is too complicated and expensive, and its efficiency is extremely low. So even if the research on antimatter began in ancient times, there has been no progress until now.

In fact, every country is secretly looking for a breakthrough. The Southern Star Nation, headed by the Ophiuchus Alliance, promotes in media advertisements that anti-matter weapons are evil and cause world destruction and should never be developed. In fact, they just don't want others to develop it. It's just that they are now one of the most powerful star nations in the galaxy, with many alliances, so no one dares to question them.

However, the Earth Alliance has never bought the account of the Ophiuchus Alliance. Matter itself has no good or evil. What gives them moral meaning is human behavior. If one day such a terrible weapon is mastered by the enemy, it will be the real doomsday. Therefore, under the order of the Council of State, the Energy Administration submitted a plan for the development of antimatter and its application to President Abia in the form of a five-level secret. After approval, it named Project Zero and began to build an experimental base inside Mars.

Any information related to Project Zero, including minutiae such as the names of cleaning personnel in the experimental base, is an absolute state secret. After all, if the Ophiuchus Alliance has any real evidence that the Earth Alliance is secretly manufacturing anti-matter weapons, there are reasons to ask the Galactic Arbitration Tribunal to intervene and unite the southern star states to pressure the Earth Alliance and even impose political, economic or military sanctions. Even more dangerous is that if the results of the experiment are stolen, the other party may even be the first to make anti-matter weapons.

This is the most important plan of the Energy Administration in the past five years. However, under strict confidentiality measures, except for the President himself, the top ten members of the State Council, researchers on Mars, first-level officials of the Energy Administration, and senior officials like Ethan Secretary, no one knows the existence of Project Zero.

However, the wind still leaked out. Ethan still does not know how Ophiuchus was aware of the intentions of the Earth Alliance, and quietly sent a top spy that they had placed in the Third Reich for many years, came to the Earth Alliance as a Third Reich mineral researcher, and A possible weak link has been found in the careful secrecy chain-Ethan Eldridge.

Ethan's vigilance abruptly, and the knuckles holding the wine glass turned white. He murmured, "Why would the Eve people know Project Zero?"

"It's very simple, you people on earth told me." Tanithel sipped a sip of cold wine, and made a motion to switch the projection. As a result, the image of the nebula originally mapped on the wall changed and became the real scenery around the building-the criss-crossed sky towers of the Tenth Space Station and the dreamy blue planet that occupies half of the sky.

Tanithel continued, "Eve has always had a close relationship with the Earth Alliance, probably because our way of governance is very similar? The Ophiuchus Alliance has obtained all the important information about Project Zero. The current situation is, either Close the Project and wait for the Ophiuchus Alliance to develop an anti-matter weapon, or bite the bullet and hold on to break the research bottleneck in the shortest time. Obviously, you chose the latter and chose to cooperate with Eve. Probably because of you The chief of guard reported the Egg of Preface to an important person. In short, they hope that Eve can rent the Egg of Preface. The reward is to share the research results with us. And I am to ensure that this transaction is smooth and fair. messenger."

"That's why you suddenly appeared in the Earth Alliance... But what did you do in the Forbidden City? What does this have to do with me?"

"You are the only earthling besides the Eve people who have not died or mutated due to excessive radiation after directly contacting the eggs of the Order God. Even the Eve people have to be trained before knowing how to control the Order God’s egg. The egg, when can you touch it, and when you can’t, otherwise it will be life-threatening. But you don’t seem to be affected by it too much, and the power of entropy doesn’t affect you much, even if you touch it. Up to a little bit of entropy god's descendants will be infected and mutated, and you will not have either.

Perhaps it is because you have the lineage of the Celestial Stars in your body. Some ancient books record that although the Celestials seem to be thin among the interstellar races, they are very resistant to various viruses and bacteria. The aging method of Sirians is completely different from that of ordinary interstellar humans. Their growth is phased and non-linear. Compared with mammals, they are more like insects such as silkworm moths, as long as they do not develop to the final "adult" stage. , It's like never getting old. But once they reach adulthood, they will rapidly age and become fragile, and even small diseases like cancer can take their lives. Sorry, I seem to be pulling away, in short, you are a very useful existence. From your blood, we may be able to extract ingredients that prevent human body mutation. "

Indeed, just like a mother. Ethan’s mother from childhood to big memory has always been the same beautiful, with green eyes, dark brown curly hair, confidently holding a music theory book and walking down the beautiful ginkgo forest aisle of the Fifth Space Station University. She is always energetic. She is clearly in her fifties, but she still looks like she is in her twenties or thirties. She wears the latest skirts and brightly colored lipstick.

But one day a year ago, my mother suddenly seemed to be a different person. She locked herself in the room and didn't see anyone. She didn't even drink water and didn't eat food. Sleeping was just one week. During that time, he repeatedly tried to call his mother out, and even thought of forcibly opening the door, but his father stopped him. He would always remember the sad look in his father's eyes at the time, he didn't even know that his father could show such a fragile look.

"Your mother is about to enter the next stage of life, don't disturb her." His voice trembled imperceptibly, as he said to himself, "I just didn't expect to come so soon."

When she woke up, she changed. Overnight, she seemed to be ten years old suddenly, her skin turned dull, with a certain blue-gray color, her green eyes were muddy, and there were even fine lines on the corners of her eyes. She no longer laughs brightly, no longer poses to the music, or even plays her cello. Her eyes became dull, her actions were slow, and her hair became dry and gray, as if she had exhausted all her vitality.

He no longer dared to look her eyes directly because he was afraid. He is afraid that he himself, who has a quarter of the bloodline, will enter this final, ruined and terrifying "adult period" on an unknown day.

Ethan listened to the other side's whisper, seemingly well-founded, but he always felt that something was missing, "The last time you went to the forbidden city to make sure I was still alive?"

"You can say so." Tanithel walked into him slowly, walking very close, and stopped until Ethan even felt a certain sense of oppression. With his beautiful eyes down, he said in a slightly hoarse low voice, "There is still a little bit of selfishness, after all, the night on the Magic Flute was rare even for me...happy. "

Ethan could smell the extremely faint sandalwood scent from his body, and felt his shadow and his breath and his light was constantly pouring down towards him, making his whole skin seem to be burning. The priest's neckline was half open, exposing a large piece of milk-like smooth and warm skin, and his jaw was so beautiful that he wanted to kiss it gently...

However, Ethan tried his best to control himself, who was easily confused by beauty, and refused to meet the priest's eyes. "So... I'm just a blood bag?"

"To me your value is far more than that, but I can only tell you so much at the moment."

"..."

"You don't have to think too much, or even believe me. We are just using the relationship." If it should be unfeeling, it became some kind of weird and twisted love word from the full lips. , Hovering like a feather on the edge of his ear, "Anyway, you have nothing to lose. As long as you remember that I am using you, and you can use me to protect you at any time, you won't feel hurt."

Ethan was chewing his magic words in a daze, feeling the bright heat that filled him. He raised his head and looked at the bewildering pupils.

"Pure use of relationships..." he muttered to himself, as if hypnotized, and laughed bitterly, "That's right, it's simple, there is not so much ties. Besides, I have no choice."

The word selection was engulfed in Tanithel's soft lips, and the priest lifted his face with one hand, looting his lips domineeringly. The scent of strong wine permeated this long swallowed kiss, and he heard the voice of the priest chanting a spell in his head, permeating behind his closed eyes.

Sacrifice yourself to me, I will control your body, conquer your will, take you beyond temporary pain and happiness, and lead you to see eternity.
