Vol 2 Chapter 81: Atonement: Mars (9)

It has been difficult for Ethan to describe the relationship between himself and his father in one word.
He rarely referred to his father Adrian Eldridge with the affectionate title of "dad". It wasn't that Adrian had tortured him or did something that made him hateful, but that he always felt that the use of such a name was twisted, as embarrassingly that the relationship between a gentleman would have to be forced to call his brother.
In fact, Ethan's father took care of most of his growth. Mother is either on a business trip, even at home, she is always immersed in her own music world, often absent-minded. As Alpha, Adrian has never complained that his Omega does not value his family. On the contrary, no matter how busy he is at work, he will still ensure that Ethan will not be ignored. If he is really busy, he will ask the company's assistant to deliver him food or send him to school.
When I was young, Ethan’s classmates admired that Ethan had such a handsome and tall father, who looked so outstanding among parents of the same age, like a strange peak across the sky. His broad shoulders and sturdy waist often make the Omega and Beta teachers look out for love, so he is also very attentive to Ethan.
Most of the time, my father was cold, alienated, and unsmiling. After Ethan was naughty when he was a child, he wouldn't be furious, let alone beating or scolding. He just kept him in the closet. Generally, the closing time does not exceed an hour, except for one time. He panicked when he heard that his father came home suddenly when he was secretly playing the game in his father’s portable capsule, and dropped the capsule full of important documents. Into the water glass.
At that time he was kept in the closet for a day and night, and the constant narrowness and darkness made him panic. The disappointed look in his eyes before his father closed the cabinet door made him tremble. I don't know if his father would stop liking himself like this, or would he never open the door in front of him again. The little child's mind is filled with all kinds of terrible fantasies. When the door finally opened, he secretly swore to himself that he would never make his father angry and disappointed, and never enter the cabinet again.
And he did. He became a very sensible child. I finish school assignments on time every day, read books and listen to music quietly in my room when I'm fine, never invite friends to stay overnight at home, and rarely participate in social activities of classmates, even if I participate, it never exceeds 12 o'clock at night. After eating, I will remember to help my mother or father wash the dishes and clean the table, and take the initiative to wash the dirty clothes I changed every week. The room will never be as messy as a male Beta or male Alpha of the same age.
His quietness and precocity made neighbors and teachers full of praise, and his father praised him several times for it. He still remembered that when he showed his father the number one grade in his class, the handsome face with no expression always showed a somewhat proud and pleased smile, and the big hand that didn't hug him much was rubbed. Rubbing his hair, the palm is rough and warm, filled with nostalgic temperature.
Ethan liked that smile very much and wanted more of that smile very much. So he started to study harder, worked hard to enter the school his father once mentioned casually as "not bad", and worked hard to get an A in every subject. He collects his father's smile like a baby. Even his first love laughed at him for having a strong Electra complex and would please his father at all costs.
But he felt that this was just the obsession caused by the unwillingness of the father's love that he didn't get in his ideal.
"Do you think your father loves you?"
A simple question, all the sour taste evoked from the throat.
Ethan lowered his head, not knowing whether to answer the question or mutter to himself, "I guess... sometimes love, sometimes hate."
Yes, sometimes he really feels that his father hates him. In fact, there is no obvious evidence for this kind of speculation. It is just an occasional glance, an impatient frown, and after his sentence, it seems to have a somewhat relieved look.
The priest's footsteps stopped in front of him, and his critical gaze fell over Ethan.
"You know, the last time Tanisel got your pre-mutation blood sample and DNA on Neptune, I also received those data. This time I came to Earth, I applied for it and transferred your parents’ DNA data. Your data has been compared with Adrian Eldridge’s DNA. The results are very interesting.
The O’Neill suddenly bent down slightly, facing him with a mysterious smile, and the third eye on his forehead opened. Halfway through, it emits a misty silver glow, "You are not the son of Adrian Eldridge."
Ethan looked at him blankly. The priest's words settled in his mind, like meaningless symbols unfolding a little bit.
Then, his body began to tremble.
"You nonsense!!!"
The priest tilted his head slightly, staring at Ethan, who was staring at him fiercely like a magical creature, "Don't be too excited. This does not mean that your mother betrayed your father. Maybe it was just a one-night stand, maybe it was misfortune. Forced, even the most common belief among you humans before is that a man named is the son of God, and his mother was still a virgin when he was pregnant."
The words of the chief priest cut Ethan's heart like a sharp knife. He shook his head vigorously, and a black color began to spread on the back of his neck, "Shut up!!! Shut up!!!"
It must be a lie, this cunning Eve must be talking nonsense!
How could he not be the father's son? He has only known that father since he was little, and he grew up with him every day!
Ethan's roar was as scary as a beast in the open environment, and the invisible air flow swiftly flowed, blowing up the priest's long hair.
The thin black lines spread rapidly from the back of the neck to the cheeks like blood vessels, and the pupil in the center of the green iris also began to elongate. Seeing the significant changes that had taken place in him, the chief priest's expression gradually changed from a playful look to a somewhat surprised admiration. From a pocket hanging around his waist, he took out a mutilated egg of the God of Order. It is now emitting an unprecedentedly hot and dazzling blue light, and many twisted ice-blue thin lines are shining brightly. On the surface of the egg shell.
Ethan was tensing his whole body at the moment, his nose wrinkled, and a vicious expression of a beast about to attack the intruder. However, if you look closely, you will find that there is a lack of glamour in his eyes, just like the blurred eyes of people during sleepwalking.
The O'Neill felt an extremely powerful and evil aura in Ethan's chaotic and dark mind that seemed to have broken through some invisible barrier and roared towards his consciousness. The destructive power made him understand that this was by no means a spiritual power that originally belonged to humans. He quickly opened the third eye completely, and at the same time quickly tapped a few times on the Egg of God Sequence with his finger, so that the blue light quickly penetrated his body like a water wave. Even so, he could still feel the outrageous force hitting his mental barrier, causing sharp pain in his temple.
The Egg of Prologue God in his hand suddenly became brighter, and he felt a wave of turbulence in the power of Prologue God covering his whole body.
Sure enough, the closer it is to something with stronger entropy, the more unstable the Egg of Preface God will be.
He has always suspected that the reason why the Prologue Gods left their eggs on the youngest planets was purposeful. Not only for their later creations to discover, after all, God of Preface is like the God of Entropy, never caring about their meaningless lives.
His hypothesis is that these sequence eggs are like a bomb with a set threshold. Once it detects that the entropy force has broken through a certain threshold, it will activate a certain purification function. At that time, what will be ushered in is likely to be some kind of destructive polarizing force, in order to force back or even eliminate the entropy who is trying to plunder this orderly deified universe.
If his conjecture is correct, then at the moment when Entropy God invades, Eve Star, which has gathered many eggs of Order God, will be the first victim. Just like when hundreds of nuclear and hydrogen bombs were detonated at the same time, the entire planet and the entire Eve civilization would be completely polarized in an instant, turning into stable molecules floating in the universe forever.
His hypothesis made many priests of the Order God sneer, thinking that he was alarmist. Those priests who are considered to be the mainstream preface gods firmly believe that since the preface allows advanced civilizations to appear, these eggs are left to them to further manage the universe. Even the priests of the Entropy God Sect believe that Entropy God cannot break through the chord frequency barrier and enter the Prologue God universe. And there are so many parallel universes, and they won't just enter their so-called first universe.
Of course, this statement was shaken after the success of the Red Earth event and Neptune's second universe experiment, so Eve would be willing to surrender an Egg of the Order God and work with the Earth Alliance to research and develop its functions. Obviously most of the temples are reluctant to throw the "sacred objects" that contain super wisdom that they have enshrined for so long to the outer galaxy.
If Tanithel's theory is correct, and if the young man who is crazier than him is true, then the closer Isen is to the state of mutation, the egg of the Order God will become more excited.
He stretched his heart, grabbed Ethan's right hand locked on the armrest, forcibly broke off his fingers that were tightly clenched like eagle's claws, and stuffed the egg of the Prologue God that kept emitting some low-frequency tremor into him The palm of the right hand.
Suddenly, a huge mental power erupted with Ethan's non-human hiss, and Sionielle felt as if he had been punched in his brain, dizzy, and two thick roses. The nosebleeds suddenly gurgled out, and there was a fishy smell in his throat.
Ethan slammed away the Egg of the God Order in his hand like he was scalded, but the blue light had spread on him. He screamed, as if someone was peeling him alive. At the same time, the black blood vessels spreading on his face, shoulders and neck quickly disappeared, and the elongated pupils returned to their original shape. Then, he rolled his eyes and lost consciousness.
Theo Neal breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that the entropy in Ethan's body has not yet reached the point where the Egg of the Other Order is out of control. To be precise, the entropy in his body is far from enough for another order god's egg to explode, but it is already enough to prevent his body from being polarized in simple contact with the egg. Even more, he may be able to control the Egg of Order God more freely than ordinary Eve blue-robed priests.
With Ethan's coma, the entire pure white room fell silent again. The chief priest has asked the Earth Alliance not to spy on the process of using the Egg of Order God on the subject. Judging from the situation he perceives, the staff shows no signs of lying to him.
But it is difficult to guarantee that the other party has no other means to monitor him. He still needs to think about how to write the report for a while. After all, they need this descendant of the Tianqi star, but they can't let the Earth Alliance be executed as a monster casually.
Sior Neil stood upright, his face pale, his forehead was covered with cold sweat, and the white of one eye was oozing blood, and the blood from his nose stained his sacrificial robe, making him very embarrassed. He hasn't been so gaffe in many years.
After all, he was also the first time he saw such a successful individual who had mutated after being infected by Entropy God.
