Volume 1 Fateful Encounters Chapter 47 Departure
Shiraishi managed to buy for a week, and Morningstar didn't ask for any reason. Although during this time, it may lead to more people getting sick and even dying, in the absence of treatment, even if Morning Star leaves immediately, at most it will only make these people die in a different way. Morning Star is still practicing with Bai Bai Yi and some soldiers every day, and the powerful force suppression has now changed the atmosphere of the entire military camp a little. At first, the soldiers who were full of violent tendencies were dismissive of Morning Star, but in the course of one defeat after another, these people gradually developed admiration for Morning Star. Even in the interstellar age, many characteristics of human beings have not changed, and worship is one of them. If a person has feelings of admiration for someone, he will inevitably be influenced by that person's thoughts. If the worshipper is the first thing to be admired, the worshipper will gradually accept it, even if it is initially opposed. There is such a trend in the current shelters.
These things are in Shiraishi's eyes. It stands to reason that a soldier from the other camp has such influence in his own barracks, and as the commander of the army, it is unacceptable in any way. But he didn't know that for the sake of it, Shiraishi had an inexplicable trust in Morning Star.
Finally, on the evening of the fifth day, Morningstar received a message from the Queen's Eyes. Anshidal has succeeded, and therapeutic drugs have been successfully developed. The effect of the drug is not perfect, it can only be used to treat people who do not have the disease, if you have to describe it, this treatment drug is more like a vaccine. There is really no way to deal with those who are already sick.
Another night passed, and the first batch of healing drugs from the Queen's Eye had successfully arrived at Haven Star. Anshidar is indeed a meticulous person, and the first batch of treatment drugs sent has been made into fingertip-sized capsules, which can be used with ordinary injection instruments to inject tendons and veins. Along with the arrival of the medicine, there was also a formula, which Anshidar gave to Helen without reservation, following Morningstar's instructions.
When Morningstar handed the formula to Helen, the beautiful and sexy medical officer's face flushed. Seemingly ashamed of her previous suspicions about Morningstar, Helen said sorry instead of thank you after receiving the formula.
……
Morningstar and his party finally set off, and the aircraft that Shiraishi had rationed for them was a medium-sized aircraft with great firepower. Although the flight speed is not fast, it has a good carrying capacity. Although Shiraishi didn't say it, Morningstar also understood that Shiraishi was expecting him to bring back more survivors. As he drove out of the shelter, Morning Star's last sight was of people busy inside and outside the city walls, with expansion and renovation already underway.
On the plane, Morningstar is lying on Quinn's lap on his back, and Quinn is delivering pieces of cut fruit to Morningstar's mouth, but Norin Hill is hammering Morningstar's legs like a little maid at the moment. Ever since leaving the Asura Field that day, Norin Hill has been clinging to the Morning Star. In front of people, she was still the noble and holy white girl, and after people, she became a shy and obedient little girl. For the first two days, Morningstar enjoyed the change, but as she turned it over, something was wrong, and the girl had lost herself. Tried to talk to Norin Hill seriously, and the elf said yes, but when he turned around, there was still no change. Until later, Quinn didn't know how to learn the truth. It turns out that the starry sky elves are very few in number, and the male elves are even rarer. In that polygamous social system, the female elves who later entered the family would be extremely obedient to the first wife of the male elves, and they would also be obedient to the male elves. Morning Star, who learned the so-called truth, was a little crying and laughing, it turned out that the starry sky elf group was still in the feudal society period of mankind, isn't this the story of the eldest woman and the house-filling. Morningstar and Quinn have also tried to dismantle Norin Hill together, but to no avail. The idea of a deep-rooted map cannot be changed overnight, and Norin Hill, despite his painful experience, has not been able to break away from the traditions of the community. In the end, Morning Star reluctantly accepted this reality, after all, it is not necessary to separate overnight, and slowly change.
Finally reaching the first target location and setting up the ship's automatic defense state, the three of them entered a high-rise building. The scene was somewhat tragic, with the ground littered with human corpses from the onset of the disease. After searching several times and wasting a whole day, until late in the evening, there was still no survivor found, and after the undying Morning Star returned to the aircraft, he turned on the low-altitude mode, and repeatedly played the voice in the lingua franca, and scanned a large area, but it was still a dead silence.
"It seems that the teacher is not good, the people in the first stronghold are already dead. We're still late. Morning Star, who returned to the aircraft, was a little sad, although he had imagined the scene after the mass illness countless times in his mind, but seeing it with his own eyes was a different feeling. Morning Star can take the lives of five people without blinking an eye, and that's because the other party deserves it. But for these civilians who just wanted to survive, Morning Star couldn't see what happened to them so tragically.
Without stopping, Morning Star and his party took advantage of the darkness to rush to the other two strongholds provided by the Third Fleet for him that had sent distress signals, and what they saw was still the same dead silence as the first stronghold. The same method was used, but instead of getting a reply from the survivors, it even provoked a few insects lurking in the shadows to grin at the aircraft.
This situation lasted for 3 days, and the situation encountered was basically the total destruction of the survivors, but one of the pieces of information was discovered by Quinn. While it's a bit inappropriate to call this message good news, it's really the only piece of good news compared to what happened to them before. Judging by the stiffness and decomposition of the corpses of the sick humans, Quinn surmised that the time between the deaths of these people was gradually shortening as the Morning Star and his party deepened. It is a bold guess that the contagion of the dead plague spread along the route of the Morning Star and his party. Morning Star, who got the news, decided to speed up the pace, relax the search efforts, and advance as quickly as possible.
After two more days of chasing, Morningstar finally met the living creature. The reason why it is said to be living creatures is that the people in this gathering place are no longer human. Different degrees of morbidity have made these people's bodies more or less proliferate, and the few people with mild symptoms have also reached the stage of irreversible. Although these patients did not have any aggressive tendencies towards Morningstar and Quinn, they all attacked her like crazy after seeing Norin Hill. The lesser of two evils, in order to protect Norin Hill, Morningstar once again went on a killing spree. When Cheng Cheng's former person fell in front of Morningstar, Morningstar was so tired that he couldn't stand still. After a long journey, I was tired from a long journey, and my body had not been well rested since I set off, and I was already a little overwhelmed by such a long battle. Quinn once wanted to help Morningstar, but was rejected by Morningstar. Perhaps it was affected by Shiraishi's words, or it was because he didn't want Quinn's hands to be stained with too much human blood, but Morningstar was still alone with this double blow of body and mind.
Quinn had tried to persuade Morningstar to summon a trap for a wide range of strikes, but Morningstar also refused. Quinn can vaguely understand Morningstar's thoughts, this indescribable pain may be addictive, and one more point of bearing can make the soul more tenacious.
Although it wasn't accurate enough, Quinn guessed roughly. Morningstar no longer knew how many weapons he had replaced, and the constant slashing caused the long knives provided by these alliances to break, curl, and break. In the end, in order to increase efficiency, Morningstar simply switched to dual-wielding weapons and lost his shield. Even the most skilled butcher in the human camp had never had so much blood on his hands in such a short period of time. Morning Star was numb, and there was only one belief left in his heart: since he has become a butcher, then take all the sins on himself, and let himself become a real butcher!
The mountain of corpses and the sea of blood is the best description of the morning star that has come along the way. Norin Hill once tried to explore the thoughts of the Morning Star with his telekinesis, and the feedback he received made the starry sky spirit recognize the Morning Star a lot. It was endless pain, and every kill, full of self-blame, but had to continue.
Just when Morningstar had become numb and Quinn was already worried about whether such behavior would change Morningstar's temperament drastically, the dawn of hope finally appeared. This glimmer of light is a family of three holes, a man with his wife and young daughter. I don't know if it's because the body's resistance is relatively strong, or for some other reason, this family of three did not get sick. When the man shot with a firearm in his hand, shouting "Demon, butcher" and rushing towards the Morning Star, Norin Hill immediately controlled him. Just as Morningstar finished the work at hand, walked up to the man, and raised his chin with the tip of a knife to inquire, the woman rushed out with her infant child in her arms, kneeling in front of Morningstar and begging for forgiveness.
Of course, Morning Star will not kill the killer, although this man still stubbornly expressed his disbelief after Morning Star's explanation, did not believe that the Alliance would give such a vicious order, did not believe in the tragic situation on Haven Star, and still spoke ill of Morning Star, but Morning Star smiled, without any malicious intent, because the man in front of him who was hostile to himself was the hope in Morning Star's heart, redeeming the sick and redeeming himself at the same time.
The killing stopped for a while, and with hope came everything. Placing the family of three in the ship's transport compartment, providing them with food to drink and rest, and injected with drugs, Quinn no longer senses the existence of the dead plague.
Morning Star, who returned to his own small world, ate a lot of military rations provided by the alliance hungrily, but looked at Quinn like a little milk dog. Of course, Quinn knew what he was thinking, and said that after the mission was over, he would cook more for Morningstar, which made Morningstar's eyes normal.
Filling his stomach, Morningstar expressed his state of mind directly to Quinn for the past few days. Sure enough, as Quinn guessed, Morning Star really almost fell into the abyss, if it weren't for the appearance of this family of three, the little man in front of him who was honest with his heart might really become a butcher.
Quinn didn't give any answer to Morningstar, she just took Morningstar's hand and walked into the bathroom of the flying machine. In the most flavorful age of human women, Quinn knows how to please and enlighten men because of her life experience. Quinn, who has energy, ideas, and yearning for a stimulating life, knows the preferences of the little man Morning Star very well. Stripped of each other's clothes, the gentle Quinn is softer than the water in the bathtub.
……
Morning Star and Quinn, who landed from the peak, were about to score a brace, but they were surprised to find that Norin Hill had been standing by the door as a spectator. Rising from the water, Morningstar leapt to Nolyn Hill's side. The bun on her head was untied, her long hair slipping down like silk, and her two pointed ears leaked out of their original appearance. Gently rubbing Norin Hill's ears, Morningstar said, "Don't hide them in the future, I know you're uncomfortable like this, I have the strength to protect you, don't be afraid of being recognized." ”
Norin Hill, who had changed back into her daily white dress, had a little more sparkle in her eyes, and she didn't answer Morning Star's words, but slowly lowered her body.
Quinn was lying on the wall of the bathtub with great interest, looking at the muscular Morning Star, stroking Norin Hill's long hair with his hand, and a picture could not help but appear in his mind - the demon who seduced the angels and fell.
