mother of all races

"I know."

Lynch responded.

He found the man's suicide note from the drawer under the man.

The suicide note was in a photo album.

After Lin Xi opened the album, the first thing she saw was a photo of a man and a little girl.

Lin Xi pursed her lips when she found that the little girl in the photo was exactly the same as the tail of the monster they caught.

That girl's name is Alice...

And the man is her father.

Like most of the crew members on the Providence, when this man boarded the spaceship, his heart was full of yearning and longing for a new world.

It's just that after the arduous and long voyage and finally landed, things started to go very wrong.

One by one people started getting sick and dying...

This was already extremely frightening.

But soon, everyone discovered that death might not be the worst thing on this planet.

The worst part is... once you get sick, you will be transformed into another alien horrible creature.

Later, in order to control the epidemic on board, the central computer issued extremely harsh instructions to all members—all those found to be infected by heterogeneous species will be driven into the freezer, and after entering a deep sleep, they will be given humanitarian euthanasia.

And after this man followed the instructions of the central computer time and time again, killing hundreds or thousands of people, he finally went to a complete mental breakdown.

[I'm sorry, Alice, I brought you into this hell on earth, but I can't face it all.

I can't even give you a decent death because I can't...

There is no way I could put my beloved daughter in a freezer and kill her with my own hands.

I can only let you hide in my office, day by day, little by little, transforming into that horrible monster.

You're alive, but I know that, in a way, you're dead.

My indecision eventually desecrated your pure life.

...I don't know if God will forgive my actions]

Lin Xi calmly looked at the suicide note written by the man many years ago.

The man confessed what he had done, and mentioned his daughter over and over again... However, in the second half of the suicide note, Lin Xi saw a name that surprised him.

Scripps --

【...Yes, if possible, I hope to fall into hell.

I'll keep cursing in hell, I'll curse the world, I'll curse those who put us on board, I'll curse this steel coffin, and most importantly, I'll keep cursing that man— — Captain Scripps — I used to adore that man so much.

But that's what he did.

He's a total pervert.

His combination with the machine is completely against the will of God.He is an impure person through and through.

Perhaps it is precisely because of his twisted existence that God will bring such filthy evil to each of us...]

Lin Xi involuntarily looked at the most important sentence repeatedly.

Scripps meets the machine?

What the hell does this happen?Almost at the same time as seeing the word machine, Hal's rotten and distorted face appeared in Lin Xi's mind.

He couldn't help but fight a cold war.

The feeling of nausea became more and more intense.

【Scripps is not a hero of mankind, but a complete enemy of mankind. He is a devil, he is Satan, and he let the evil spirit take charge of this spaceship, and finally put us all in danger.

I curse him, I curse him forever in hell...]

Lin Xi hastily threw the paper full of obscenities aside. After standing there for a while, Lin Xi's eyes suddenly darkened. He squatted down and searched carefully around the office.

It didn't take long for Lin Xi to find the communicator that this man had used on the shelf in the office that had already been shattered.

This thing has been stuffed in the corner of the shelf. It is conceivable that after the mutation happened, people have long since neglected to wear communicators.

The appearance of the communicator appears to be very intact, but there is some dust on the surface.

Lin Xi tentatively turned on the communicator, but just as he thought, after so many years, the communicator has long been aging and unusable...

But at the moment Lin Xi thought so, a light suddenly flashed in the originally pitch-black control room.

"Buzz..."

This was followed by a particularly abnormal electrical sound.

Lin Xi raised his head in surprise and looked at the ceiling.

The lighting facilities, which should have been completely abandoned, turned on without any warning at this time.

Although the light was extremely dim and flickering all the time, this light alone was enough for Lin Xi to see everything around him clearly.

Immediately afterwards, the communicator in Lin Xi's hand suddenly lit up, and after flickering the red light indicating a malfunction several times, the communicator suddenly turned into an openable state.

All the passwords and confidentiality measures have completely disappeared. Lin Xi just touched this communicator, the conversations this man had with other people 300 years ago, his handling of work matters, and everything else. All are revealed.

Afterwards, several conversations between the man and other colleagues were specially selected, and without Lin Xi's consent, they jumped onto the screen.

Obviously someone was trying to make Lin Xi see something...

Lin Xi raised his eyebrows, he looked around, and then he raised his eyelids to look at the ceiling.

"It's you, right?"

he asked.

"Lin Xi?"

Seeing that Lin Xi raised his head and spoke to the lighting facilities, Xavier fluttered his wings a little uneasy...

But in the next second, something that surprised Xavier happened.

The originally dim light on the lighting facility flickered.

Lin Xi didn't say anything more, and after getting an affirmative answer, he immediately lowered his head and looked at the communicator in his hand seriously.

[...I really can't believe they really did this, are those guys crazy?They have kept us a secret until now? ! 】

This is a message from a male colleague.

Probably because the communicator itself is about to fail completely, all the messages are filled with a lot of unknown characters.

Lin Xi had to be extra certified in order to get key information from those complicated characters.

[Maybe it's just a rumor. Captain Scripps has completed countless legendary missions before this. How could he be a cyberman? Don't just listen to rumors. 】

This is the reply that the man sent to his companion.

Then there is a large line of words, all of which are the man expressing his admiration for Captain Scripps to his companions. The information Lin Xi came into contact with on Earth is not wrong...

Scripps, at least at the time, was indeed the idol of all men.

However, a few months later, in the message the man sent to other people, his attitude towards Captain Scripps changed 180 degrees.

[I really want to kill that group of people, how could they make such a decision?Even a small spacecraft for commercial use would not consider using a cyberman as the captain.These people who are not even physically developed should just lie in a wheelchair and get some government relief for the disabled... Scripps is a bastard, he is completely deceiving the world.If I had known that the spaceship Providence was actually captained by a cyberman, I would not have appeared here no matter what! 】

Lin Xi had just finished reading this message when another message popped up.

[Yes, yes, I went straight to the committee meeting of those bastards today.I filed a complaint directly in their face.Don't worry about me too much, I can still send you a message now to prove that the situation is not so bad. 】.

[Oh, yes, they gave me some preliminary answers. In fact, I should not have told you the information they told me, but this matter is related to the safety of all of us... God, you will never Believe what I hear, those cyborgs have been trying to invade human society since long ago.They even told me that there are many people who are anonymous and live with us ordinary people.It's just disgusting, I don't know what those people think.

Come on, are those cyborgs really people?

They are just some deformities who can't even take care of themselves.

They wouldn't even be able to survive if it wasn't for a high-tech combination of that garbage with some mindless machines.Guess what they said to me, they said that it is because of the complete integration of cybermen and machines that they can handle complicated affairs better than ordinary humans, and they will not be affected by human emotions... …

I really wanted to throw up, and they also told me that Scripps was a cyberman specially bred by the government for this plan.

Yes, they tell me Scripps is different - not one of those born with disabilities, but a special species that has been selected and bred from embryonic time for integration with machines.

You noticed my wording, special species, that's what they call the man.In fact, these people also know that the guy is not human at all, and he will kill us all. 】
