Falling into the Abyss

Ethan returned to the apartment in a trance, always feeling that what happened 10 minutes ago was too unreal and not quite like reality.

Isn't this unreasonable?A priest of Eve was the least likely person to appear in the Forbidden City, and he couldn't think of any reason for Tanisel to come to the Forbidden City.

Anyway, it must be impossible to just come to see him.

Ethan laughed at himself, and didn't even notice that when he walked into the room, the dazed look fell into the eyes of Samuel who came back a step ahead of him.The latter's eyes were cold, and when he laughed at himself, it could be described as sharp eyes.

"Look, make you happy." The mocking tone came into his ears, and Ethan saw Samuel squinting at him unhappily while he was shining his shoes.Ethan asked, "Did you see Tanithel too?"

"Such a big movement, who can not see it."

"What do you think he's here for?"

"None of my business."

Ethan was also a little annoyed by him, "Hey, can't you talk properly? Don't be like a cannon barrel all day long."

Samuel threw away his boots, took out a cigarette and lit it, "Don't listen to it if you don't like it."

Ethan tilted his head and raised his eyebrows, "I said, every time I mention Tanithel you are like this, and you beat someone last time, don't you like him?"

It was the first time that Samuel, who had been smoking for nearly ten years, choked on cigarettes, coughed a few times in embarrassment, and stared at Ethan threateningly, "Don't fucking guess, please."

However, his stern eyes had no effect on Ethan. Beta began to talk to himself, "Yeah, this can explain why your temper was so bad before. I thought it was because of endocrine disorders, but your estrus is coming recently. Symptoms shouldn't have appeared so early."

Samuel couldn't bear it anymore, picked up the boots that had just been polished on the ground and threw them over.

It has been a week since Tanithel appeared in the Forbidden City, and every day Ethan walked on the road with some inexplicable hope in his heart, always feeling that he might meet that blond man at the next corner.This little hope made his day-to-day heavy and dirty work less unbearable, and even his steps became a little lighter.

But in fact, Tanisel never showed up again.There are some rumors about him among non-human beings, saying that their Eve star and the Earth Alliance are secretly cooperating in an experiment, and they are likely to select people from the Forbidden City as experimental subjects.

At the same time, another rumor about the red earth was also quietly circulating.There are rumors of detailed but totally inaccurate vivid descriptions of the genital goddesses on the Red Earth, as if everyone spreading the rumors has seen them with their own eyes.It is said that she is a hundred stories tall and has countless tentacles. She likes to eat her victims and then turn them into strange creatures without consciousness. As her offspring, she sometimes separates from her and sometimes merges with her.It is said that she will travel across the universe to the earth, because she is the other side of God who created the universe, and his apostle, who came to devour the solar system that has completely abandoned the belief, and then expanded to every corner of the galaxy.

Ethan guessed that Chen Zeng spread the word, but he didn't know what Beta, who always seemed kind and moderate, wanted to do.Is there any point in developing such apocalypticism in the Forbidden City?

As for Tanisel... He must have obtained permission from the government to appear in the Forbidden City.I don't know if this has something to do with the fact that the inhuman punishment for them has not come down.

Samuel's estrus is coming soon. Originally he still planned to use inhibitors, but considering that long-term use of inhibitors may have an impact on human health, after discussing with him, Ethan decided to use Ethan's estrus as his Alpha Samuel You have the obligation to take care of him, so you can ask for three to four days off.The two started saving their daily rations several weeks in advance, storing food and water under the bed, and then locked themselves in the house for three days, and no one knew who was in heat.

However, the plan could not keep up with the changes.

During breakfast one day, Ethan and several other inhuman numbers were read.He was sitting with Samuel for dinner at the time, and the names he had originally read were 240 and 250, but Ethan alone was read not only with a number, but also with a name.

Samuel's face changed slightly, Ethan just stood up, but he grabbed his wrist. "There is a problem. Usually the number is read, unless someone is personally designated by the higher-ups or the chief of guards."

Ethan smiled bitterly, "Do you think I can't think of it, but I have to go, right? Besides, I may not be chosen, don't worry." He took two steps, turned to look at Samuel, and said seriously, "What if I If you don’t come back, take care of yourself. If it’s not possible, you can pretend to be sick and go to the clinic.”

Samuel frowned thickly, but he could only watch Beta's peaceful back drifting away.The secretary's ability to adapt to the Forbidden City is surprisingly strong. From the trembling at the beginning, he can still laugh after being beaten up. Knowing that there is a conspiracy, he can still be so calm, and even has the leisure to comfort and tell him.

That's probably what Ethan looked like when he was working in the government.

This time there was no truck to pick them up outside the cafeteria, probably because the task was not urgent, and non-people were required to walk near the high wall to listen to the task.Dozens of non-human beings lined up in a row, and there were silent robot policemen gliding slowly.Ethan noticed with anxiety the tall and strong figure in front of him that was no less than Samuel's—Jarvan, he was Samuel's deadly enemy, and he had been pretending to be Samuel's Omega. I am afraid that I will inevitably be made things difficult.

All he could do now was pray that it was Tanithel who named him.

However, when he saw the gray-haired Vasiliev sitting comfortably on a chair drinking coffee, he knew that his illusions were completely disillusioned.It turned out that being beaten up by the guards before and being assigned to work in the stinky sewer pipe was nothing more than a small fight by the vengeful second in command.

I'm afraid this mission is the highlight...

The gloomy gaze of a gray-haired snake swept across the non-people lined up in front of him, but did not look at Ethan clearly.But Ethan could smell malice.

But he still had a little fantasy, hoping that Tanisel would appear quickly... Although he didn't know what the use of his appearance was, although he also knew that the possibility of this was almost zero.

The huge horn on the steel city wall suddenly sounded a piercing noise, and a male voice with a mechanical and metallic taste said, ""Atonement mission code name: Beetle, score: five. "

Hearing that it was a five-point task, Ethan was slightly relieved.However, the non-human around him seemed unhappy, muttering, "It's a fucking five-point task, it's hard work and you don't get much points, it's not worth it."

"Mission content: Participate in the military experiment at the tenth space station. Departure time: Immediately."

The tenth space station, a space station located near the orbit of Neptune, is a military fortress, and most of the civilians living there are military families or office workers.There are many examples of military experiments using non-human subjects. It is hard to say how much risk there is. There are simple three-point tasks and terrible ten-point tasks.

With so little information given, it was difficult for Ethan to deduce what the so-called experiment was.

After the broadcast was over, Gray Mao stood up with his baton and asked in a drawn out voice, "We need twenty people, who wants to be a volunteer?"

Jiawen and three or four other people stood up, and the others looked at each other in blank dismay, silently bowing their heads.Gray Mao then turned the baton in his hand and started to walk in front of rows of inhumans.Every few steps, he randomly poked a person's chest with a baton, and the person who was poked had no choice but to walk out with a sad face.

Ethan was actually a little surprised. It is understandable that there are not many volunteers for the ten-point task, but why are there fewer people for the five-point task?

Just thinking that Huimao had already walked in front of him, his footsteps paused slightly.Gray Mao pulled the brim of the police cap, and said in a voice that was so flat that it was hair-raising, "I said, don't let me find out that you are lying to me." Then, he poked his chest with a baton.

Ethan swallowed, his heart sank to the bottom of his feet.His back was a little stiff, but he could only walk out of the queue.He saw Jiawen looking at him, grinning one corner of his mouth at him with a certain provocative malice on his rough face.

There are wolves in the front and tigers in the back.It is obviously a five-point mission, but why does it seem to be more dangerous than a ten-point mission?Ethan thought dully.

Maybe he should also learn from those followers of Chen Zeng, pray and worship God for nothing, and change his luck...

Like the last time, everyone was put on electric shock collars, and then a simple spaceship carried non-people for a short curvature flight, and arrived near the tenth space station early the next morning.In the dark and endless universe, the huge ice-blue planet occupies the entire field of vision, and three light blue rings like the Milky Way slowly revolve around the star 17 times the mass of the earth.

Because it is very far away from the sun, only a small part of the sunlight reaches here, so everything looks dim and cold, but there is a clear brilliant star in this darkness, which is a building made of many huge steel rings interspersed with each other. Although the man-made "planet" has no spherical appearance, the living space inside is no less than a quarter of the earth.

Around the tenth space station, there are many cruising starships slowly passing through the dark sea of ​​stars. It is said to be slow, but in fact they are all traveling at a limit speed close to the speed of light.Illuminated by a blue light, their spaceship slowly entered a raised dock door.The space behind the door is extremely high and wide, and many small spaceships shuttle back and forth like warblers and birds.

The spaceship is moored at a port suspended in mid-air, and a long bridge leads to huge doors on the high wall.After getting off the boat, a biting chill instantly made all the non-humans shrink back and curse.This kind of cold is different from that on the earth, it is a kind of deathly coldness, which penetrates from every pore everywhere, as if even the heart is frozen in an instant.

Ethan found that the air he exhaled quickly formed fine snowflakes and flew away. He hugged his body and huddled together. Together with other non-humans, he followed Huimao, who was wearing a thick winter suit, across the long bridge and entered those majestic ferries. door.There are many soldiers in thick flight suits coming and going. Although their faces are hidden by scarves, masks, sunglasses and hats, they can still feel a lot of curious eyes.Especially when some companions pass by them, they will make a vicious gesture of wiping their necks. If some timid non-humans show a shrinking expression, they will laugh out loud.

Ethan lowered his head, although it has been so long since he entered the Forbidden City, although he understands that many people's obvious expressions of disgust are actually just hoping that his condemnation of sinners can be seen by ubiquitous surveillance, and slightly improve his moral value by a few tenths , but every time he encountered such blatant disgust, he still felt mortified and felt that perhaps he should really be hanged.But another voice in his heart was resentful again, thinking that as long as those so-called legal citizens were given the right opportunity, wouldn’t they be able to brutally torture an Omega like Taifeng like the guards in the Forbidden City?

Unknowingly, the scenery of a corner of the space station has been spread in front of him. It is obviously a ring-shaped space station, but it walks on the ground under the action of gravity.The earth in the distance lifted slowly, and turned upside down completely in the distant sky. Buildings and trees hung upside down, separated by misty clouds.

A transport spaceship brought them to a military base, and all the non-humans were driven into an empty military dormitory. There were rows of bunk beds, although there were no bedding, at least there was a layer of mattresses, which made them sleep for a month. Hardboard's Ethan was almost moved to tears.

Gray Mao leaned against the door frame, chewing gum in his mouth, and knocked on the metal on the wall with his baton, and all the non-human beings fell silent in an instant.

"Listen well, the experiment will be carried out tomorrow. Your task is very simple, that is, to stay in an isolated mini space station, and report the situation in the station when necessary, until they let you out. Don't make trouble for me, I'm not Schneider, I don't have that much patience."

Ethan knew he shouldn't talk, but he couldn't help it.He needs to know what kind of revenge Gray Hair has prepared for him, "Excuse me, what kind of experiment is it?"

Gray Mao's eyes slowly turned to him, the corners of his mouth slowly opened, and he smiled creepily.

"An experiment that sends you to hell."
