Falling into the Abyss

Vol 2 Chapter 67: Atonement: Faun (16)

As soon as Ethan and the priest came out of the room from the window, the doors of many rooms suddenly popped open. People have not seen them yet. There are already network-intensive laser beams shooting from each room to the Earth Army downstairs. However, the Earth Army also seemed to be prepared long ago, and immediately found cover and began to fight back. In the rain of bullets, Tanithel was guarding Ethan, bending over and rushing all the way to the corner of the stairs to catch his breath. Ethan saw the rosy red on Tanisel's shoulders becoming more and more diffuse, and the whole heart seemed to be drowned on a stove, but the priest seemed to feel no pain.

"Why did the Earth Army come? Are they here to catch the Ophiuchus or us?" Ethan whispered nervously.

"I hired a local horn to report the letter, saying that there are Ophiuchus's work here. I guess they probably won't let us leave easily, so I kept a back hand." Tanisel's tone was slightly hasty. Said, "The front door has been blocked by the Earth Army. Let's find a way from behind."

Ethan nodded and dashed down the stairs behind the fast-paced priest. There was chaos in the ears, and there were shouts that couldn't tell whether it was anger or pain accompanied by the hissing of the laser burned the masonry ground and even the human body. At the end of the stairs, there is a corridor across the entire Hui-shaped building, which looks like an exit. But as soon as they arrived downstairs, the door at the end of the corridor was kicked open, and many Earth soldiers flooded in. Suddenly seeing Tanisir, the Eve, they were all a little stunned.

Tanithel suddenly opened his eyes on his forehead and said in a calm voice, "The Ophiuchus spy you are looking for is inside."

The soldiers looked at both of them strangely, and then they passed them in file and rushed into the hotel.

Ethan never knew that Tanisel's mental power was suspiciously affecting more than a dozen people at the same time, but when he looked closely, he found that Tanisel, who was still walking at a fast pace, was a little blue, his lips pressed tightly and his hands He pressed hard against the injured shoulder and seemed to endure hard. Ethan became anxious, "We have to go to the hospital! You need to stop the bleeding!"

"It's not in the way." Tanisel simply asserted, "It's not safe here. Let's leave here."

They quickly merged into the bustling market. The stalls were crowded with each other in a disorganized manner. In the narrow aisles, people buying vegetables, shopping and transporting goods were standing next to each other, and in the middle were a bunch of smiling little horned people digging through people's overlapping legs. They were mixed in the crowd, moving little by little in the direction of the crowd. Tanithel’s injury occasionally drew a few strange or alert eyes, but fortunately, it did not cause any commotion. Most people just do their own thing and never notice whether people or pigs pass by. .

They flashed into a narrow alley that could only accommodate two people passing side by side, Tanithel leaned against the wall, and the beautiful facial features finally twisted into a trace of pain. Ethan was at a loss and wanted to check his injured shoulder, but he shrank back when he touched the priest. Ethan was so distressed that he took Tanisel's hand and asked softly, "How far is it?"

"Passing through this alley, you will see a stone bridge. I hid the aircraft under the bridge." Tanithel took a deep breath and stood up straight again, "Let's go."

Ethan nodded and helped Tanisel to stagger through the dark alley. However, when he reached the center of the laneway, Tanithel's breath ball suddenly began to flash with a lavender light, floating in front of him with a sense of urgency, as if urging him to stop. The priest waved his hand irritably at first, as if he wanted to ignore the urgent call, but the ball of life seemed to have suddenly rebelled, blocking him time and time again, preventing him from moving forward.

Tanisel couldn't, so he had to give an order: agree to call.

A stream of light shot out from the sphere of breath, forming a humanoid image in mid-air. He was also an Eve, a little taller than Tanisel, and seemed to be slightly older, with a handsome face, long dark brown hair and eyes, and pointed ears similar to Tanisel. And the third eye. He also wore a snow-white priest's clothing, but the collar and cuffs were covered with purple ribbons, which Tanithel did not have.

It seemed that this was also a priest, and seeing Tanithel lowering his arrogant head to him in a proper manner, he was probably still a priest of high status.

"Priest." He turned sideways slightly, as if trying to hide his injuries.

The Eve, who was called the "priest", looked at him with almost stern eyes, and then moved his gaze to Ethan again. Ethan had a creepy feeling that even his soul was seen through.

"Tanisel, where are you now!" the chief priest shouted.

Tanithel lowered his eyes, paused and replied, "Fun."

"I got the inquiry information from the Earth Alliance before. I can't believe it. You are too brave!"

The heavy questioning made Ethan think of his father... but apparently this man cared more about Tanithel than his father.

Tanithel finally raised his head, his eyes respectful but firm, "I have something to do."

"No matter what'must' you do, stop now!" The chief priest looked at Ethan with a cold gaze without any emotion, but he still said to Tanithel, "You are arrogant too much this time. Now, if we lose another Order of God’s egg, our entire temple will be unable to explain. Give this human to the Earth Alliance and come back soon!"

Tanithel said, "I want to take him back to Eve."

The chief priest suddenly changed his expression. If it was just a cold anger, now it was mixed with consternation, "What did you say?! Are you crazy! He is inhuman, and you want to bring him to Eve Star." Will we destroy our relationship with the Earth Alliance?!"

"He is no longer inhuman. They thought he was dead."

"They may have thought so before, but no matter what you two did just now, obviously you have already exposed him. The Earth Alliance asked us about your whereabouts not long ago!"

"Then tell them that I am dead!"

"You!" The chief priest suddenly closed his eyes, seeming to stabilize his emotions. After a long while, he opened his eyes again, and he had recovered his original calmness, or coldness, "Tanithel, are you forcing me to drive you out?"

Tanithel's eyes widened slightly, and he probably didn't expect that the opponent would threaten him with expulsion.

Ethan took a step forward at this time and interjected cautiously, "Tanisel...or else, go by yourself."

Tanithel pushed him away without even turning his head, "Don't make trouble." He continued to say to the chief priest in purple clothes, "You should know why I insist! You agree!"

"Yes, but I didn't expect you to be so paranoid and crazy! Even the royal family can no longer ignore your nonsense, how can I protect you!" The chief priest rubbed his temples with his hands almost disappointed, "You immediately Hand in Ethan Eldridge, otherwise, you don't have to come back." He paused, and added, "This is the order from the temple, you better think it through."

After speaking, the communication was cut off.

Tanithel stared at the dark void in front of him, without speaking for a long time.

Ethan looked at him worriedly, not knowing what to say. However, the priest quickly looked back at him and said lightly "Let's go."

They walked in tandem and finally left the alley that was too long. A narrow embankment outside the alley, a shallow, dry river, and under the stone arch bridge that seemed to have not been repaired for many years, there is really a vaguely opened aircraft with stealth function. It looks likely to be the Ophiuchus vehicle borrowed from the Horned Tribe.

Although Tanithel was pale due to excessive blood loss, and his steps were vacant, he still walked very firmly in every step. Ethan looked at his back, sourness in his throat.

Was this proud and beautiful priest willing to be banished for such a useless monster?

Sure enough, no one in the world treated him as kind as Tanithel. How can he, Ethan, and how can he bear such affection?

Tanithel opened the cockpit of the aircraft and sat in with great effort, only to find Ethan standing a few steps away from him, looking at him faintly.

"Why are you in a daze? Come in!" Tanithel's reproaching voice was also a little faint because of lack of strength.

Ethan suddenly smiled at him, his eyes slightly bent, looking a little tired, but a little childish. He took a step back, then suddenly turned around and ran in the opposite direction at the fastest speed.

"Ethan!!! You come back to me!!!" Tanithel's frustrated voice came from behind, but Ethan knew that the priest was exhausted, he had lost a lot of blood and wasted a lot of mental energy. I can't catch up with myself.

As long as they leave in large strides, the priest can safely return to Eve.

Whether he is cowardly or selfish, he cannot be the reason for Tanithel's exile. He could feel a huge hole in the priest's heart that he couldn't reach, and inside was a dark chaos that couldn't see his fingers. If there is no **** of the temple, he will be completely lost in the endless darkness.

Just like himself, if it weren't for the light in the darkness of the priest, he didn't know at this moment whether he had become a murderous monster, swallowed by the countless darkness surging deep in his heart.

Although he really wanted to leave all the nightmares with the priest, bathe in the beautiful violet sky of Eve, travel in the cantilevered galaxy opposite the Milky Way, and see the huge black hole in the center of the Milky Way.

But he didn't want Tanithel to become as lost as himself.

Because of this, he rushed to the oncoming pair of earth soldiers and raised his hands.

"I am Ethan Eldridge, an inhuman from the Forbidden City of the Earth Alliance."

The author has something to say:

Comrades, Ethan’s last name hasn’t been changed, it’s entirely because I changed my writing in the middle of the night and my mind was trembling..._(:з」∠)_
