Advent

The song is over...

Alan's back was covered with cold sweat.

Allen doesn't hate singing, but he may never be able to adapt to such an occasion surrounded by countless people and stared at by countless people.

Especially at this moment, the gazes of those people fixed on him were so hot that they seemed to have substance.

Allen could even feel the faint tingling of his skin from that gaze.

Even though he knew very well in his heart, the people outside the territory were completely different from those greedy and crazy fans many years ago.But with that look, Allen inevitably remembered many dark pasts.

【"Alan—Alan—"]

【"Be my man, Alan..."】

【"I am willing to give my life for you! Allen! I will prove it to you!"】

……

Allen shuddered.

Well, he has to admit that he lied almost subconsciously to those around him.

He doesn't feel well at all.

Obviously it was just a memory that passed through his mind inadvertently, but it still made Allen feel like he was falling into an abyss, and even his blood became extremely cold.

Thankfully, Raymond was by his side, and Ellen has never been more grateful for the presence of a man next to him.

The pale and tall Alpha is more silent than ever, yet that's why he seems so reliable.His arms were strong and firm, and he hugged Alan tightly.The unique scent of Raymond, turpentine, sea salt, mixed with some kind of green vanilla, poured into Alan's nasal cavity, which made Alan calm down somewhat.

Like a drowning man finally finding a piece of driftwood, Allen held Raymond's hand tightly.

only……

"It is he, yes, he has come to us..."

"It's Ellen Blythewell, it's Silver Star..."

"Old John is so happy..."

"It's so happy, he can finally go to heaven..."

…………

The small whispers pouring towards Alan from all directions, the common language mixed with a special alien language that he couldn't understand... still surging like a tide, almost drowning Alan.

Raymond looked terrible.

The squirming flesh and blood behind the pipes and walls was about to lose control, and the instinct from the White Emperor was stronger than ever.

The desire for monopolization and the desire to kill alternately emerged in the depths of the White Emperor's core, and the meat hidden in the metal plates and gaps also grew fine leather teeth and suckers, and the tentacles used to hunt prey seemed to grow like crazy The vines kept crawling in corners that the Outlanders could not see.

Pierce through those hard coverings, pour into this damn hall, and then devour all the fragile creatures that surround Allen and try to possess Allen!

All the people outside the territory focused on Alan, so no one noticed that Raymond's pupils had changed very, very small at this moment, and the color of the silver iris had become extremely light, almost blending with the whites of the eyes. One.This made Raymond's eyes look even colder, a cruelty that only cold-blooded animals can have.

Even, in the core of the White Emperor, he has already made a deduction for the next predation——

The first thing that needs to be done is to corrode the load-bearing beams supporting the space, and then some mechanical facilities fixed on the top, but with a little trick, He can easily fake a collapse event.

As a matter of course, he would notice something was wrong at the first time and quickly take Allen away. As long as the distance is a little longer, the creatures that are now filling his vision will be sucked into the mouth by the sudden pop-up hunting tentacles.

Under the action of the Bai Emperor, these people would not even have time to shed blood, unless the Bai Emperor deliberately left some corpses to disguise the scene.

……

Everything is so flawless.

Everything is so easy.

"Tick tock..."

The mucus slowly seeped down the beams and walls.

Some tentacles are already wriggling in places where no one is paying attention, but the pigment on their body surface changes, making them completely invisible in the messy environment without anyone noticing.

It's just that at the moment when Emperor Bai was about to strike, he suddenly stopped all his movements.

【Do not. 】

Emperor Bai thought to himself.

Then he turned his head and looked at the man beside him.

Allen naturally didn't know the "tragedy" that was about to happen, he just stared blankly at the old, weak, sick and disabled around him, his eyes filled with pity and intolerance.

【Allen...would never like this...】

It's one thing to kill the killer who attempted to attack "Raymond" and Allen.

It is also normal to control those researchers with ulterior motives in the base.

But, killing the group of mixed bastards he pitied in front of Allen?That's another story.

According to the information extracted from the brain of "Raymond" by the Emperor Bai, it can be calculated with a little deduction. Once this matter is known to Allen, the relationship between him and Allen may become very difficult. state.

Of course, Emperor Bai knew very well that the chances were very small, but the whole plan was still not foolproof.

He was even a little surprised, why did he suddenly become so impulsive and bloody just now, even to the point of being a little stupid?

Emperor Bai couldn't help frowning, and began to examine himself.

It seems that something has become a little bit wrong since just now.

Before, I was so immersed in Allen's singing that I didn't notice it, but now, it's easy to find something suspicious-the most obvious withdrawal is this group of people from outside the territory.

You know, in order to control the tyrannical emotions in his heart, the White Emperor released a very vicious and dangerous aura just now.

In the universe, even the huge star whale will follow the instinct to change the course directly to avoid danger after sensing the deterrent atmosphere of the naga.

But now, the deterrence released by Emperor Bai as the most powerful Naga has no effect on this group of people outside the territory.

Of course, it can also be considered that these people have been in such a bad and tragic fate since they were born. They face death almost every day, and suffer losses almost every day, so that they lose their sensitivity to danger.

But this possibility is also a little bit too small.

The Emperor Bai calmly examined this group of people from outside the region who were more or less strange in appearance. On the surface, they still obeyed Calvin's prohibition and did not get too close to Allen, but in fact...

There was a faint trance and fanaticism in the eyes of the crowd, and they inevitably gathered more and more around Allen.

That uncomfortable obsession also gradually became apparent.

"Alan, let's go back.!

Raymond's brows were almost locked together, and even his body was slightly deformed-if Allen focused a little more now, he might realize that Raymond's body was in addition to the original In addition to the smell of pheromones, there is also a little damp smell.

"...You don't need to worry about these."

Raymond whispered to him, and he hugged Alan tighter and harder.

Allen's lips fluttered together, and he was about to respond to the other party when the grandson and granddaughter of Old John's family suddenly squeezed in front of Allen.

"Thank you! Silver Star!"

The girl opened her eyes wide, with a joyful smile on her face, and she just yelled at Allen like that.

As for that boy, the tears on his face have not yet dried up, but the smile on his face is exactly the same as that of the girl beside him...

Obviously not long ago, they cried bitterly because of the death of Old John, but now, the old man who died peacefully seemed to them no longer despair and shock, but turned into some kind of great happiness.

"Thank you...thank you...star, great star, please take care of my grandpa, thank you..."

The boy stammered and repeated to Allen.

Taking this thank you as an opportunity, the extremely lucky death of the old man of the Casa family seemed to be a beginning.Before Allen was ready, the people around him had already started pleading with him.

"Silver star...can you sing a song for our child too...he is only 7 years old...the doctor said that he can't survive these two days..."

"Wuuuuuu...stars...Alan...I beg you, please sing a song for me...my mother, my mother is always afraid that she will not be able to reach heaven, she has been in pain for a long time, today I am afraid It's her last day...she's a good person and I can swear to you...please protect her...please take her away...uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…"

"Woo my husband, he needs your song too...great star...I will do anything for you! I will do anything! Just save him...take him to that wonderful place place, don't let him stay in this kind of place..."

……

In this "ward area", there are too many people staying here, silently bearing the fear of death.

The scene is so unsettling, and the pleas from relatives and friends are so heavy that people can't even breathe.

Allen's figure trembled slightly, and Raymond's voice became hoarse and deep.

"Let's go, Allen..."

As if he was enduring something, the voice sounded a bit strange.

Allen could hear Raymond repeating softly beside him.

But Allen didn't say anything.Although Allen knew very well that if he nodded, Raymond would be able to take him out of the crowd smoothly.

Allen can take it for granted that this group of outsiders who live with death all day long will be forgotten, anyway, he will be able to return to the office area soon.The identity that Rafael forged for him was an inspector—although it was only a false identity, it also provided him with enough protection.Even if he completely ignores these outsiders, he will not be punished in any way.

On the contrary, he can avoid a lot of trouble.

but……

Allen couldn't do that.

He glanced across the tear-eyed, expectant faces.

Even the beating of the heart became a little difficult.

Once you start admitting to lying, then the lies will only get bigger and bigger.

Just by listening to the pleas of this group of outsiders, they seem to really regard Alan as a god.

They seemed to genuinely feel that, with Alan's permission, their loved ones would be in a wonderful paradise, free from the pain of this world.

It's a pity that Allen is not the so-called god.

【...It's time to stop this mistake, if you stop everything now, it's still too late. 】

Allen could almost hear how his own voice persuaded himself from the bottom of his heart.

Become the idol of a group of people, become the so-called spiritual pillar...

In the end, they were completely swallowed up by those people's so-called love and obsession - obviously they have already learned a lesson once, obviously they have suffered enough.

However, his body seemed to have its own will, and Alan broke out of Raymond's embrace bit by bit.

These people need him...

Another voice in Alan's body, the one that drove him to the "ward" without hesitation, the one that made him involuntarily sit down beside the old man and sing for him, began to become louder and louder, so loud that Alan Totally irresistible.

"...If someone gazes at the starlight, why not walk with me? Turn into a silver star in the darkness, abandoning all pain and despair..."

"...the silver star beyond...the heaven of Eden in the distance...he who sees the starlight, why not become a silver starlight with me."

……

The sweet, ethereal, and sacred singing echoed once again in the ward area full of stench and pain...

The clamor and pain of the people suddenly stopped at the moment Allen's singing sounded.

The miracle that befell the old John of the Casa family once again befalls other people from outside the territory.

People in pain stopped crying, people in coma gradually relaxed their expressions, people who were dying showed smiles, and relatives and friends in despair forgot the pain and parting...

In this way, unknowingly, more and more people gathered around Alan with their surviving relatives and friends.

Just like before, in Allen's singing, everyone fell into a gentle and beautiful dream.

It was as if the heaven made of stars was really somewhere not far away, and Allen's singing was a guide, and he could take them to that pain-free paradise at any time.

……

Just when everyone was deeply immersed in Allen's singing and couldn't extricate themselves.

Above the "ward area", a dark figure was standing quietly on the top of the dome of the hall.

The entire "ward area" occupies a very large area, but after all, it is a crude site built by borrowing abandoned areas. The top of the hall looks like a mess, and there is not even a complete ceiling.There are only metal shelves full of dirt and abandoned wires and pipes hanging in the air.

There is dust, dirt and toxic substances leaking from the pipes.

Ordinary people... no, even people from outside the territory would never want to stay in this kind of place.

But now, there is a person standing here without moving for a long time.

Holding the metal structure enclosure with one hand, he stared obsessively at Allen, who was in the center of the crowd below.

The singing sounds a bit ethereal at this distance, but it still makes the man's skin burn and his heart beat faster...

Even in a trance.

Some chaotic and blurred pictures kept flashing back in his mind along with the singing.

black light.

Silver stars.

Ugly giant mollusks.

And himself—some hideous and terrible monster—

Accompanied by the memories that kept pouring into his brain, there was an almost tingling tingling on the man's back.

"Wujie Yada?"

At the same moment, among the crowd...

Sensing the familiar breath in the air, Belian, the Sioux priest who was in a trance listening to the song and was about to faint from the great happiness, suddenly raised his head and looked above him.

Then he spotted the familiar man above the roof at a glance.

Wujie Yada looks a little strange...

This was Belian's first thought.

Without the slightest hesitation, Belian got out of the crowd, then dexterously stepped on the small parts on the wall, and easily jumped onto the metal tripod above the roof.

Wujie Yada was still standing at the original position, but he seemed to be sideways—in this way, most of his body parts were hidden in the shadow of the roof.

In this shadow, only Wujie Yada's eyes are shining.

And the breath on his body...

His breath was even weirder than before.

Belian had just taken a step in the direction of Wujie Yada when he suddenly let out a gasp.

My arm hurts so much.

He couldn't help raising his hand to look at his arm. Under his skin, the veins belonging to the priest were burning hot.

However, the stinging pain only lasted for a very short time.Belian's face was tense, he was too worried about Wujie Yada, he didn't take the reminder brought by the sacrificial pattern to heart.After all, at this moment, all his attention was on Wujie Yada.

"Wujie Yada, why don't you go to Alan's side to listen to the song? His voice is so nice..."

Bellian asked quietly.

Even he himself didn't notice, out of a certain intuition, when he was talking to Wu Jieyada, his voice was deliberately kept very low.

just like……

As if afraid of waking up something.

But Wujie Yada didn't make a sound.

"Wu—wait, what's wrong with your back? Is it injured?"

Immediately after, Belian realized that Wujie Yada was really different from before.

There are some strange things rustling on the man's bare back.

Belian couldn't help but took a few more steps forward. At this distance, he finally saw clearly.

What was moving non-stop on Wuyu Yada's back turned out to be scales connected one by one.It suddenly looks like the feathers of some kind of bird, but after a closer look, you will find that they are hard scales that only cold-blooded animals have.

It is radiant and brightly colored, and there are densely packed poisonous glands under the scales. Those bright colors come from the highly poisonous stored inside.

The reason why Belian saw those things moving... was because those scales had just grown from Wujie Yada's back!

Wujie Yada, whose back was covered with scales, looked more powerful and majestic than ever before, and even... even had a strange beauty.

But for Belian, everything was so weird, he was restless, and he couldn't appreciate the scales and colors that Wujie Yada showed now.He always felt that there was an aura about Wujie Yada that he didn't like very much.

"Wujie Yada, what happened?"

Bellian asked persistently.

"I remembered many things..."

This time, Bellian finally got a response from his brother

It's just that the voice was gloomy and illusory. Although it sounded like Wujie Yada's voice, it seemed to overlap with another voice...

"Wujie Yada??"

Bellian was taken aback, he couldn't help but took a few steps back

A muffled smile overflowed from the depths of Wu Jieyada's throat.

"That's our Silver Star..."

"what are you talking about?"

"We finally found him—I finally found him, after losing him for so long..."

"Wujie Yada, don't do this, you scare me."

"This time...we will finally get his eternal love...eternal power..."

Wu Jieyada whispered frantically while staring at Alan below.

Allen didn't notice Wujie Yada.Instead, the guy next to Allen, the pale man, suddenly raised his head, and his silver eyes were aimed straight at Wu Jieyada.

From such a long distance, normal people probably would not be able to see clearly Wu Jie Yada who purposely hid his figure in the shadow.

But the man didn't seem to be hindered by the distance.

His eyes were sharp and stern, revealing an indescribable terror.

It seems that at that moment just now, he has listened to all the conversations between Wu Jieyada and Belian...

Wujie Yada's figure flickered suddenly.

If Belian hadn't suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Wu Jieyada, Wu Jieyada, the patriarch of the Sioux clan and the most legendary killer of Yuanxing, would have fallen directly to the dome because of such a stupid mistake.

"Belian?"

And when he stabilized his figure and turned his head again, the mysterious and gloomy aura that lingered on him before disappeared in an instant

He looked at Belian a little surprised, like he just found his brother by his side...

……

tick...

A few drops of viscous mucus slowly dripped from the grid above their heads...

……

If it weren't for Calvin's supreme authority in the autonomous region, I am afraid that no one would be able to bring Alan back from the ward area from the hands of the fanatical outsiders.

Even Calvin... almost took off a layer of skin after doing all this.

It is difficult to count exactly how many songs Allen sang for those people and comforted dying souls that day.Calvin only knew that after this night, for the people outside the territory—God had a specific face.

But that doesn't make Calvin happy.

On the way to send Allen back, he stared at the thin and thin figure beside him, with extremely complicated emotions.

What to say?

Thinking of Allen's dedication to appease the wounded and sick, Calvin felt deeply grateful to Allen, but at the same time, what emerged in his heart... was instead worry.

After all, while being moved, Calvin knew very well that Allen was not the legendary god.For the people outside the central axis area, "hope" is hope only when it is in a very emptiness and a very remote position.

But if "hope" has entered reality.

All expectations were completely destroyed.

The original "hope" will only turn into "despair" in the end.

That's why, since Allen came to the autonomous region, Calvin has been sternly warning all residents that they must never get close to Allen.

The external statement is of course that people from outside the territory cannot disturb Alan, but in fact Calvin knows very well that the reason for this ban is purely to protect his own miserable kind.

"God" will not stop for these lowly people.

It is also impossible for "God" to really redeem them.

"God" is just an ordinary person.

But the fact that has always been firmly believed, was shaken when he heard Allen's singing with his own ears.

Calvin saw with his own eyes how those people slowly fell asleep to Allen's singing...

When Allen sang, he was completely different from his usual appearance.

Calvin even felt as if he had returned to the festival of the Goddess Race he experienced when he was young.When the priest communicated with the gods, the whole world seemed to enter another dimension—beautiful, illusory, mysterious, and awe-inspiring.

It's just that the aura of "God" shrouded in Allen's body is far stronger than that of the priest in memory.

Even someone like Calvin, after hearing that part of the song, can't help but want to believe that maybe in the depths of the universe, there really is a legendary paradise.

Maybe the aliens with mixed blood flowing in their bodies can also find their eternal resting place in that starlight...

……

Only after the singing stops, the reason will slowly come back.

After all, Allen is just an ordinary person, he is not a god, and he has no way to satisfy the wishes of people outside the territory.

"I've troubled you."

Stopping in front of the tent, Allen suddenly turned to Calvin.

Calvin was taken aback for a moment.

"No, that's not trouble... we should thank you."

Calvin said quickly.

"Next, you may have to spend a lot of effort to convince those people that I can't satisfy their wishes like a god. I... I can only hope that my appearance will not interfere with your treatment and follow-up activities. I'm a little impulsive today." Allen smiled bitterly, "I just can't let it go... Those people seem to need my singing very much."

Allen murmured.

Calvin stared at the sadness and self-blame in Allen's eyes, his heart ached slightly.

"You did nothing wrong, Ellen...you saved us, you gave so many people a beauty and peace they could never have imagined in their lifetime. I think everyone here today will remember your singing... ..."

Even, they may fall into deep despair because of the shattering of the legend and the departure of the "god" afterwards.

Calvin said to Allen in an extremely complicated manner.

After he finished speaking, he turned around, he almost ran away, trying to escape from this sad discussion——

But Allen suddenly stopped Calvin today.

"I have a question I want to ask you..."

Alan asked.

"what?"

"How did you come to this place? How did you become the so-called... people from outside the territory?"

Calvin's eyes widened in astonishment after hearing Allen's question, and he stared straight at Allen, his gaze becoming sharper than before.

"What did that person tell you?!"

While speaking, Calvin's eyes turned straight to Raymond who had been guarding Allen by the side.

Raymond raised his eyebrows and looked back for some reason, looking innocent and naive.

Allen sighed...

In fact, the voice in his heart has been clamoring that he should not interfere with anything involving people outside the territory.

No matter from which angle, no matter what standpoint, he has no way to help or interfere with them.

However, he still couldn't control himself.

Because when he was singing for that group of people, he was extremely shocked to find that a line of clear writing was branded on the chests of these people.

That is the common English of the earth...

【UNOEATypeH:】

Followed by a series of numbers.

That is the United Earth Government Star Asset Number.

Just like the minerals mined from the mineral resource planet, just like the new breeds of livestock raised by livestock, these living people are imprinted with an indelible number representing "resources" that will never be erased.

"In the end what happened?"

Allen stared at Calvin, then asked again.
