Chapter 261 The Asteroid That Swallows Everything (1/2)
Chapter 261 The asteroid that swallows everything
No matter how slowly the asteroid moves, more than 7,000 years is enough time for it to move a certain distance.
In fact, the asteroid's speed was quite slow at first, but it kept accelerating, and then before he knew it, Fennelly discovered that it was very close.
Over the years, Finney has used various means to observe it, explore it, and prevent it, but none of them have any real effect.
"Decide, should we evacuate here?"
Fennelly asked other scholars, and they all seemed to be in bad spirits.
"I think we should retreat. It's too tortured. Lately, my dreams have been about that asteroid. It's become like a nightmare. I haven't slept in decades. Even entering a deep sleep state can't stop my nerves. to think.”
"Me too. No matter what kind of weapon it is, its speed is not that fast after all. If you can't offend it, why can't you hide it?"
"Perhaps we should understand its nature, but it is definitely not now. There is no need to force something that cannot be done. After all, now is not a time of life and death."
Everyone seemed to agree to leave.
Fennelly thought so too.
Not in the past few decades, in fact the issue of asteroids has become his inner demon hundreds of years ago, preventing him from focusing on other things.
And not only officials and scholars like them, but ordinary citizens in Star City also feel the oppression of the asteroid. Over the years, more and more citizens have left Star City and dare not stay here any longer.
This relieved some of the transfer burden for them.
"Then let's avoid it for now. We can change the direction. SC-102 is good."
After making the decision, everyone started scheduling.
Fennelly was walking on the streets of Star City, and he noticed that many people on the street looked up at the starry sky, in the direction of the asteroid.
Too many people care about that thing, after all, it threatens their own safety.
But he might actually have to thank that asteroid. If it weren't for that asteroid, he would have died long ago because his lifespan was exhausted.
"I don't know if it's luck or misfortune."
Immortality is a good thing, but you have to endure the pain of losing family and friends around you. Fennelly has experienced it many times, and every time he feels like he can't breathe. That feeling is simply more painful than dying directly. For this reason, I have some chronic diseases. Fortunately, technology is very advanced today.
Recently, he had this feeling again. Every day he not only dreamed about the asteroid, but also dreamed about his dead family members and friends.
He was feeling very depressed, so he decided to take a walk on the street.
Although he has lived for such a long time, he has never really taken a good tour of Star City.
"ah!"
Just as he was walking on the street, a scream suddenly came from the distance. He looked over there and found that it was a being from the Kate tribe who was chasing a life from the Lelera tribe with a weapon. That guy In full view of the public, he chopped off the head of the Nalerela tribe with a knife.
As the blood stained the Nakate's body, he became even crazier, and Fennelly noticed that his eyes were red.
He directly took out the small laser weapon on his body and shot it at the Kate, instantly piercing the Kate's body.
At the moment of killing the opponent, Fennelly felt that there seemed to be a happy feeling in his heart. His pressure was really too much, and he was extremely eager to kill to calm the pressure.
"Maybe I should see a psychiatrist."
In the Federation, there are both mechanical and biological psychiatrists, and they are all relatively high-income categories of doctors. There is a strong demand for these in the Federation today.
The living environment has become diverse, which means more problems will arise. There are reliable reports that the pressure of this generation is 17 times that of the previous generation. The generation here is calculated in thousands of years.
As an old guy who has lived for more than nine thousand years, Fennelly is more aware of the gap.
With still some time left, Fennelly headed toward the hospital, where he had an appointment.
When he arrived at the hospital, he pushed open the door in a familiar manner, but the smell of blood instantly hit his senses. He walked towards the source of the smell of blood, and the mecha had already covered his body.
Then, in an open door, he saw a Light Wing clan inside putting a piece of the Royin clan's internal organs into his mouth. The body of the Royin clan had been partially mutilated, and the Light Wing clan's abdomen was bulging high.
"Dr. Bilosi?" Fennelly shouted in disbelief.
The light-winged tribe turned to look at him, and the other party said calmly: "Oh, it's Intelligence Officer Fennelly. Are you here for consultation? Wait in a cleaner room next to it. I'll deal with the situation here first. matter."
Fennelly found it unbelievable that the other party dared to eat other citizens so openly in front of him. Although everyone's race itself is different, due to the long-term racial integration and the upgrading of the current definition of human beings, there is actually no racial barrier in most lives. , even extreme racists cannot accept this kind of taking the lives of other races.
"Don't you have anything else you want to say to me?"
Bilosi thought for a moment after hearing Fennelly's words, and then asked: "Do you want me to see your mental outlook? With all due respect, Intelligence Officer Fennelly, your complexion is worse than when you came last time." A lot, I guess I haven’t had much rest recently.”
"Your eyes seem to be a little red. You should pay more attention to them recently. Maybe you can force yourself into a deep sleep state. This will be good for you."
Biloxi said as he put the viscera of the Royin tribe into his mouth.
Fennelly felt like vomiting, and seeing Biloxi's nonchalant look, a surge of anger rose from his heart.
"Don't you think you've violated federal law?"
He yelled.
Biloxi was stunned for a moment, then said, "It seems so, but I don't know why, I think I should kill him and eat him, and he's delicious, isn't he?"
"Mad man!!!!" Fennelly's mecha transformed into a hand knife and approached Biloxi to kill it.
At this time, Biloxi's body suddenly expanded and turned into a huge black demon ten meters high, with three pairs of crow-like wings.
Sequence [Evil of the Fallen Angel]
Ordinary people cannot get sequences, but it is easy for popular industries such as psychologists to buy good sequences.
Biloxi's body was gradually covered with mechas. He looked down at Fennelly and shouted angrily: "What do you want to do? Do you want to kill me? Even if you are the highest official here, you don't have such power, you murderer."
Fennelly's anger was hard to suppress when he was called a murderer by a murderer.
His body gradually became larger and eventually turned into a human palm. The palm was spread out, and there was an eye in the palm. The eye was extremely dark and deep, like an abyss, and at the bottom of the abyss was a faint blue color, as if there was a spring rippling in it.
Sequence [Bill's Broken Hand]
This is a fourth-class sequence, while Biloxi's [Fallen Angel's Evil] sounds very powerful, but it is actually the twelfth-class sequence. There is a huge gap between the two.
Fallen Angel's Evil stayed in place when he saw Bill's Broken Hand's pupils. Bill's Broken Hand went forward to grab the Fallen Angel's Evil and crushed it, even if there was a mecha's protection, because Fennelly's mecha was better.
The battle was fleeting.
After returning to his original body, Fennelly immediately asked the mechanical guards of Star City to take over here, and he no longer had the idea of seeing a psychiatrist.
"Something is wrong!"
He felt something was wrong.
The whole Star City seemed to have an indescribable sense of weirdness.
Fennelly decided to go and discuss it with others.
...
He flew directly to a high-rise building in the center of Star City without driving.
Fennelly entered the elevator and pressed the 1839th floor.
This is the highest-end residence in Star City. Each building is 70,000 meters high and each floor is 30 meters high. The higher it is, the more expensive it is. The price per square meter here is more than 3,000 energy coins, and there is no unit less than 2,000 square meters. In other words, each house is at least 6 million energy coins.
Although the purchasing power of energy coins has depreciated compared to ten thousand years ago with the strength of the Federation, the purchasing power of these 6 million energy coins is still equivalent to about 1 billion US dollars for humans in the 21st century.
In fact, it is not expensive. There are many houses in the core area of the capital that cost 20,000 to 30,000 energy coins per square meter. Of course, the services there are comprehensive and the area is larger. I heard that there is no house below 10,000 square meters.
When facing this problem, the most hurt ones are the War Beasts. The huge physical activity space of the War Beasts is at least 50,000 square meters.
For Fennelly, sitting in a 25-meter-high elevator seems a bit too empty.
The elevator uses a magnetic system. The speed of up and down can theoretically be supersonic. Generally, the low floors are 20 meters per second, the middle floors are 100 meters per second, and the high floors are 200 meters per second. Soon he arrived at the 1839th floor.
There is no need to knock on the door. Naturally, there is an AI housekeeper to announce that someone is coming to the room, and it can identify who it is.
In the past, it was basically a second to enter the door, but this time the door opened automatically after a while.
Fennelly walked in and saw Doc coming to greet him.
"What brought the intelligence officer here?"
Working together over the years has made Fennelly and Doc good friends. Doc has traveled to many places before. Although he may not be professional in areas other than quantum physics, he is a well-informed person.
"Have you felt that there is something wrong with Star City recently?"
Doc was stunned when he heard Fennelly say this, and then said: "You are too nervous, right, about the asteroid."
"Because it can't be removed, this matter has basically become a knot in the heart of every life. It will become a disease after a long time. This is normal."
"Do you know the moon?"
Fennelly nodded.
"The moon is a companion star of the original home star of the human race. It plays the role of a god in the growth of human civilization and is endowed with unique meaning."
"This looks like a naming game, but it does affect some lives. For example, the full moon night is the peak period of human murder and suicide rates."
"Sometimes if you care too much about something, then this thing can subtly affect everything around you. If you don't want to be affected, you need to stop thinking about it."
"Haha, it seems easier to say, but it's really difficult to do it." Doc poured a cup of tea for Fennelly.
Fennelly, who was sitting in the living room, suddenly smelled a strange smell, which felt like something rotten.
"Doc, is there something broken in your house?"
Doc said a little depressed: "The sewer is blocked. I didn't expect such a high-end place would have such a problem. Now that technology is so advanced, they still cut corners on such trivial matters. It's really..."
It was a casual answer, but Fennelly still felt it was too smelly.
"Let me help you take a look. In fact, my hobby is to repair various mechanical failures."
Doc's tone suddenly changed at this time: "No need!"
This sentence was said quickly and quickly.
Fennelly's secondary brain sent him traces of Doc's lies, and Fennelly had already noticed something was wrong.
He stood up and walked towards the toilet.
"Doc, you are lying to me!"
"I don't want it to be what I understand."
Doc rushed over to stop Fennelly, but Fennelly had already opened the toilet door.
There were piles of animal corpses in the toilet, and each of them died in a very cruel way.
Doc said, "Recently, I have suddenly become interested in biology and found some animals to do experiments."
Fennelly turned his head and looked at him: "Really?"
"Your tone doesn't tell me that you are telling the truth now, Doc."
"When did you start to like torturing animals? At the beginning?"
Doc was not so nervous at this time, and said with ease: "I don't know, maybe since I was born, but recently this influence has been magnified, and I can't restrain myself."
"You know? It feels so good to kill animals. Watching animals die little by little, how wonderful!"
Fennelly felt creepy.
This is definitely not the Doc he knew before.
"Changed!"
"Everything around here is wrong, Doc, don't you realize that you are affected?"
Fennelly shook Doc's body hoping that he could wake up a little.
However, Doc smiled at this time, "Fennelly, why didn't I realize it before, in fact, you are also an animal?"
As he said, a knife stabbed towards Fennelly.
Fortunately, Fennelly was wearing a mecha at the moment, so the knife couldn't penetrate his advanced mecha no matter how sharp it was.
"Are you crazy?" Fennelly pulled away and looked at Doc in disbelief.
He found that Doc's eyes had turned blood red and he rushed towards him.
At this time, Fennelly's heart also erupted with an irrepressible anger, "You guy, do you really want to die?"
The mecha itself separated a particle vibration knife, which chopped towards Doc without hesitation.
"Puff!"
Fennelly actually cut Doc in half with one knife. Even if there was a quark robot in his body, Doc's body that was split into two halves would soon lose vitality. After all, his neuron center (head) and the booster pump (heart) of the whole body's blood have been divided into two halves.
Fennelly was stunned on the spot.
He woke up instantly at this moment, and then looked towards the huge French window in the living room, looking towards a certain direction of the starry sky, where... an asteroid was approaching.
"No, everything is wrong..."
"The moon, yes, it's the moon..."
"It turns out that it's not a bomb at all, but a weapon that affects consciousness..."
