The tide ebbs and flows, the stars move, and the sky becomes dark again.
It rained all day and many outdoor activities were forced to cancel.
People living in the City of God are very cautious and never go out on cloudy or rainy days.
When the lights were on, there was a dilapidated pickup truck parked next to the street with two water tanks filled with sea water.
In the cabin on the left is a young man covered in snow-white body.
The shirt was hung loosely on his body, wetted by the sea water, and outlined on the young man's slim and slender body, making him particularly attractive.
He was lying on the edge of the water tank with his hands folded, his frozen indigo eyes unfocused and falling on a certain point in the air.
In the water tank next to him, a bloated alien creature sank to the bottom of the water. Only its dark brown eyes were round and bright.
Two creatures with extremely different appearances were staring not far away.
Looks very sad.
In the church in the city center, carols are sung every evening led by the pastor.
Tall and magnificent buildings are the center of the city and also landmarks, standing where every inch of land is precious.
People in this city, regardless of high or low, can come to pray and worship the God they believe in, but not everyone can enter the church.
Two figures squatted next to the magnificent building.
Tang Rou stood on the edge of the wall and listened.
There is a metal interlayer in the thick church wall, which is extremely strong and well-defended. The entire church is made of such sandwich steel plates, making it very solid.
It cannot withstand the terrifying toxins of the moon.
The thick wall was corroded to create a long cave, which was enough for Tang Rou to see clearly what was inside.
She observed it for a while and then turned around.
The boy's indigo eyes looked through the crack in the back door of the pickup truck.
Tang Rou felt strong love, and...
Moving her gaze downward, she looked at her good friend's profile, and couldn't help but ask, "Atherland, why are you involved?"
"What?"
Aslan raised his eyes with a suspicious look on his face.
"I released the 230,000 living experimental subjects in the Tower of Babel, and the Federation will not let me go. They want to use me to control Alphinaud and the others. I have no choice but to continue on this path.
choose."
"But Aslan, you can obviously live an easy life. The Tower of Babel is gone. You are no longer an engineer and can live any kind of life you want."
Ever since the Tower of Babel came down, it collapsed.
The bioengineers and scientific researchers who were originally affiliated with the Tower of Babel dispersed like birds and beasts.
When the tree falls, the monkeys disperse, and almost no one can continue to use the name of bar engineer.
Microbial Chemistry Technology Rush.
But Aslan still persisted. Even though he could throw up his sleeves and leave, he insisted on following the task force.
Take the road to Hotdam that seems to never end.
Aslan snorted, his usual heartless tone.
"What's the reason? I'm a bioengineer. Of course I have to follow this line. I'll go wherever there are biological abnormalities."
Tang Rou suddenly said, "Lie."
"Huh?" Aslan tilted his head and looked at her, "Why did you say I lied?"
Tang Rou also frowned.
Because she felt that her tone just now had a very familiar feeling, much like Sea Hare.
Sea Bunny once lied to Tang Rou with such determination.
What was Tang Rou talking about that time? She regarded sea rabbit as a relative.
"I'm serious." Aslan said in a casual tone, "Everything is for science, everything is for human progress."
"you are lying."
Tang Rou became more and more determined.
Aslan didn't bother to answer her, and stretched his head to look at the hole in the wall.
Tang Rou asked, "Asselan, do you want to find Xiao Ning?"
The air became eerily quiet.
Aslan bent over and didn't move for a long time.
After a while, he turned around, his smile disappeared and the corners of his mouth straightened.
"Why am I looking for him? He's a scumbag who left me without saying goodbye."
Tang Rou sniffed and said, "You want to find him, right?"
Carols rang out in the church.
The vocal chorus is ethereal and soothing.
There is a weird religious atmosphere.
Tang Rou's gentle words were mixed in, stating the facts, "Xiao Ning's assignment stated that the location was in the jurisdiction of Hotdam, so you voluntarily joined the formation two months ago and wanted to go to Hotdam."
Aslan looked at her and said calmly, "Yes, I want to find him."
"Have you ever thought about what if you can't find it..."
"I want to give him a slap." She interrupted Tang Rou, "I want him to pay a price for leaving without saying goodbye, but, Xiaorou, we have been here for two months and we haven't even reached Hotdam yet.
.”
Anomalies occur frequently in the world, and alien creatures invade.
Tsunami, hallucination, virus.
There are also inexplicable strange changes in the observation area.
Everything happened one after another like dominoes, allowing them to walk for two months without even reaching the halfway point.
Even trapped in this city of god, unable to get out.
Where is God?
Is there really a god in this city?
"I was the only one in this city some time ago, and I was thinking about what I would do if I died." Aslan raised his lips and smiled coldly, "Will he be sorry when he hears the news of my death?"
Tang Rou frowned, "You won't die."
"Xiaorou, I can."
Aslan's eyes were red, and the tip of his nose was red. He looked very embarrassed. "I'm not you. I don't have those experimental subjects who cherish me as if they were my blood, and I don't have those powerful aliens to protect me from wind and rain. If I encounter
It’s dangerous, the probability of my death is very high.”
To die is to die.
Death is a very common thing for human beings.
In this world, people are saying goodbye every minute.
When you turn around and leave, who would know if the side you just saw will be the last side you will see for the rest of your life?
"Or, he will never know that I am dead." Asselan's voice was soft and calm, as if he was discussing someone else. "I also expected that he might already have a new girlfriend, and maybe he wouldn't even remember me.
Who is it?"
"He won't." Tang Rou immediately denied.
"How do you know he won't?"
"You didn't believe that he would dump me before, but that's not it." Aslan wiped his tears and said with a smile, "If you don't love me, you don't love me anymore. He doesn't like me anymore, and he doesn't even want to say it in person.
Breakup via text message, that’s all.”
There was a faint sense of sadness in the air, like crushed fruit, sour and astringent.
Tang Rou wiped away the tears at the end of her eyes and asked softly, "Have you ever thought about how someone like Xiao Ning could break up via text message? It's not like him..."
"Whatever reason he has!"
Aslan was emotional, "Rou, no matter what reason he has, he shouldn't leave me like this, you know? I almost..." a few days ago
The breath of fear came.
Tang Rou hugged her shoulders and felt a slight tremor coming from the skin under her hands.
She is afraid.
With her eyes closed, she leaned against Tang Rou's arms and whispered, "Rou, if the monster hadn't saved me, I wouldn't be alive now."
That day was so terrible that she didn't even dare to recall it.
Everyone was killing each other like crazy, with blood on their faces. They were like Shuras who had torn open hell and walked out. They were immersed in the feast brought by the blood and lost all sense.
That day, there were alien species in the sea and humans covered in blood on the shore.
Athelan really thought he was going to die.
But it blocked it, and half of its ugly body was shattered, making it look even more ugly.
Aslan was not a conscientious person. Even if he risked his life to save him, his first reaction was to run without looking back, trying to escape from the city.
It also wants her to escape.
But by some strange coincidence, Aslan looked back.
After being injured, the ugly monster did not leave. He lay on the shore and looked at her with sad eyes and blood all over his body.
Behind them are the flames soaring into the sky, and humans fighting desperately.
"It and I almost died together." Aslan trembled with his eyelashes and whispered, "Looking back, I really can't let it go."
"Xiaorou, I suddenly figured it out."
"So, I don't want to find Xiao Ning now."
"Okay, let's talk about it later." Tang Rou wanted to stop her.
Because she smelled the breath of sadness, and that emotion made the tip of her nose sore.
