High Above

In the endless brilliance, the retrospective vision is activated.

With the permission of the Twin Popes, and under the gaze of the Huaiguang crowd, Ian saw the 'source' of the 'Huaiguang'.

The source of everything is still the disaster of falling from the sky.

Located in the center of the continent, the top-secret biological weapons laboratory lost control due to the disaster of falling from the sky. The storage cabins containing many experimental super biological embryos and apocalypse-level biological weapons were destroyed. A large number of sources of crises that could destroy the world were released to the outside world. Destroy the civilization of Terra with the aftermath of the Skyfall disaster.

Cities collapsed and tens of millions of people died. The survivors were displaced, and only a small number of people in the shelters had a stable base, while the remaining humans could only survive in the ruins of the city.

He even... had to live in the wilderness and face the aftermath of the disaster.

At that time, natural disasters occurred frequently in Terra.

Sometimes it is a scalding rainstorm that can boil human bones, sometimes it is cold and sticky corrosive acid rain, sometimes it is hailstones as big as human heads, sometimes it is thousands of thunders falling like rain...

A simple camp is meaningless. Only the protection of mountains and relatively solid ruins can survive, and only the strongest adults can survive...

and protected children.

A group of children were protected in the isolation dome of the former biological laboratory. They were confused and uneasy, and could not help crying... Most of the children lost their parents, their friends, their homes and the peace of childhood. They were surrounded by adults along the way. After passing through many lines of fire and crises, everyone tried their best to be sent into this dim dome located underground.

Then, there is constant waiting.

"Stay here obediently and don't run around."

"The natural disaster outside is still going on. We will select a few people to lead a team to search for supplies. When we find something delicious, everyone can have a big meal!"

"Never go to the area outside the dome. This place should be a federal confidential laboratory... We are not sure whether this place is safe."

"Damn it, the federal government is actually secretly studying the technology of alien civilizations. Now, God knows what monsters will appear!"

The voices of adults are disturbing, but the adults never put any dangerous pressure on the children.

All the survivors were united and acted with all their strength without any selfishness. They gave everything to protect all the children in the safest areas and ensure safe food and water sources.

Even during times of frequent epidemics, they did not hesitate to give priority to medicines to the exploration team and children without anyone competing for them.

It sounds incredible, but the pre-era civilization at that time was able to do this - in times of crisis, any number of citizens of the Federation of Terra would work together without suspicion of each other.

In their hearts, they have lofty beliefs that are more important than survival, and they have the pride of being 'Terra people'.

But no matter how noble your beliefs are, you can't solve the shortage of supplies and defeat those dangerous mutant creatures.

There are fewer and fewer people in small shelters, and more and more people are sick. Many of them are even 'new diseases' that have never been seen before, are not in the information database at all, and cannot be treated with drugs.

At this time, the people in the shelter also realized that the underground area they found was actually a secret federal biological laboratory - which even contained various alien viruses and biological weapons.

The danger is comparable to building a house in a volcano crater.

They immediately mobilized their last strength and prioritized transporting women and children away from this place, preparing to take refuge in a nearby medium-sized shelter.

In this early stage of Heaven's Fall, the other party would definitely accept them. The reason why they didn't go before was actually because they didn't want to bring a burden to other people who were also working hard to survive.

But it was at this time that the real crisis emerged.

It was a monster created in a laboratory during the Federation era, an alien species that would parasitize in living organisms and absorb their genes to strengthen itself.

It was not originally powerful, because there were no powerful creatures in Terra that it could absorb. Even the Terrans themselves could only be said to be balanced, not powerful. The adult bodies they gave birth to were still in a state where they could be shot. The scope of artillery kills.

However, after the Skyfall disaster, with the drastic changes in the ecology and the leakage and spread of a large amount of fire, a large number of 'Warcraft' appeared on this land, which also gave the aliens the opportunity to parasitize and strengthen.

Parasitic monsters, aliens that have gained extraordinary power, have surpassed the range that ordinary guns and cannons can be hostile to.

They easily killed most of the guards, women and children escorting them by surprise. Only a few people stationed in the shelter and a few sick children survived.

Among the sick children, there was a pair of twins.

Are they brothers or sisters? No one knew that their parents had died long ago when they fell from the sky. They were taken along by others on the way to escape, and these two children were the most bizarre pair among all the children in the shelter. They usually did not care about each other at all. They talked, didn't play or cry, just looked at each other occasionally, and seemed to be able to communicate without words at all.

Although this kind of weirdness has been noticed, there is no time to study it. Most people think that this is an autistic tendency caused by excessive grief, and they have no time to correct it and can only let it go.

The disease that children suffer from is quite strange. Those who are infected are all individuals who are usually quick-thinking and mentally tough. The specific manifestations are brain fever, abnormally sharp nerves throughout the body, and severe neuralgia.

Sick children must not be sent to other shelters. The original plan of the shelter adults was to wait until these children recovered and then send them to some large shelters to see what the problem was.

But now, the emergence of extraordinary aliens has plunged everyone into despair.

All the force and most of the women and children were killed and became the opponent's food rations. The few remaining adults decided to attack with the security armor in the driving research institute that was unknown whether it could be activated again. Even if it was to self-destruct, they would have to fight the aliens. perish together.

"sorry……"

Before driving the armored attack, they placed the last remaining food, medicine and weapons in front of the children with high fever, and said with self-blame: "We can't continue to protect you. What happens next is life or death. It’s all up to you.”

At that time, in the haze of high fever, I vaguely saw a pure white twinkling, and heard these apologetic words: "If any of you recovers first, you must take good care of the other children. We Terrans We will never abandon our compatriots for our own selfish desires, and only by uniting can we cope with natural disasters and fight against all crises."

"Don't be afraid. If we are all wiped out, nearby shelters will find clues. They will come to destroy the aliens and take us to live in a new place... At that time, listen carefully to the words of other uncles and aunts..."

There are many more instructions, more like last words than care.

They left decisively.

Never came back.

The children's illness is very serious. Rather, it is not a disease at all, but a sign of some kind of psychic awakening... The disaster of falling from the sky brings strong psychic fluctuations across the world, and all qualified people will undergo an awakening. , but for the Terran people who have not yet adapted to the high-concentration spiritual energy environment, the pressure brought by their first awakening is almost the same as killing them directly.

Except for the twins, who could share this pressure with each other, all the other awakening children did not survive - if someone takes good care of them, the technology of the civilization of the previous era can completely allow these spiritually awakened young children to survive. But now, only the luckiest and best survive.

But the twins, who have just survived the crisis of spiritual awakening, are about to face the extraordinary aliens coming to their door.

This is a monster similar to a praying mantis, but with dragonfly wings. The tawny carapace is as strong as steel. There is a pair of huge compound eyes on the head, which is wrapped in a transparent protective shell. The mouthparts are ferocious and sharp, as powerful as a giant ant.

Although half of its three pairs of wings were broken, one of the long-horned tentacles on its head was also broken, and its exoskeleton armor was full of pits, and even its internal organ structure could be directly seen, the remaining power was still enough to kill everyone in this shelter. biology.

In order to survive and seek revenge, the two surviving children used all the supplies in the shelter to fight against them.

Fuel, batteries, thick and powerful explosion-proof doors, liquid nitrogen bottles that are still in good condition...all kinds of things, including their newly awakened psychic powers.

Twin spirits who can see the context of the future and all the details of the past.

The two children, who had just recovered from a serious illness, tried their best to set all kinds of traps, but they were still forced to retreat to the deepest part of the shelter by the extraordinary aliens.

Hazardous Biological Weapons Preservation Center.

Here, many culture tanks have been shattered, and the experimental creations in them either escaped like extraordinary aliens, or are dead. Of course, there is still a small part that remains active and is preserved here.

The Geminis didn't hesitate at all. They directly triggered the destruction system of the preservation center to die together with the extraordinary aliens.

They succeeded.

Because the building structure was destroyed by the skyfall, when the destruction system was activated, the entire laboratory collapsed in a violent explosion - even the extraordinary aliens were nothing more than a mantis under the weight of tens of millions of tons of rock.

The twins also held each other's hands with relief and welcomed the collapsed dome - they had lost their parents, friends and uncles and aunts who took care of them. If it were not for revenge, they would have no reason to live.

But when the Dangerous Biological Weapons Storage Center collapsed, a pure white petri dish also shattered.

The white bacteria overflowed, spread, and spread in the gaps in the rock formations.

Then, it penetrated into the corpses and souls of the twins.

A definition.

What counts as true death?

Is it the destruction of the body?

Is it the death of the soul?

Or has his existence been forgotten and he has lost his spirit and fighting spirit to live?

Different populations, different life forms and intelligent life have different answers to this.

When the twins revived on top of a white fungus blanket, they were surprised to find that their bodies, which had been crushed by earth and rocks in their memories, were intact again. The thick white fungus blanket was the swaddling clothes that gave birth to their new bodies, and their spirits The memories are the same as before.

Are the original twins dead? Are they clones made by white parasitic bacteria, or are they resurrected by this mysterious biological weapon?

Not sure, don't understand. The twins can even use their previous spiritual powers, and there is no difference in their already-formed souls. In the strictest sense, they are still the same two children, but they are still absorbing the same skills as their own. The consciousness linked to the expanded microbial carpet tells Gemini that they are no longer purely 'themselves', but a prominent part of the microbial colony.

This human body simulated by tough biomass is not their original body.

They are no longer human.

Until a nearby shelter dispatched a rescue team and found the twins wearing rags and leaves around the ruins of the original laboratory, the young children did not understand what happened to them.

But if you don’t understand it, you don’t want to.

Rescued by the surrounding large shelters, the twins did not suffer any bullying or were treated separately - in the eyes of this last generation of 'Terra people' who have experienced the unified civilization of the Terra Federation, all children are their own children. They will treat all surviving children equally and do their best to protect them.

Even if these two children seem a little strange, they often predict some future developments and report some past omissions.

It was at this time that speculation about 'spiritual awakening' also spread to this shelter, and psykers who could awaken directly without practicing began to appear commonly.

The twins' anomalies were explained, which made most of the people in the shelter breathe a sigh of relief - it's really hurtful to one's self-esteem to be pointed out by children from time to time, especially when what they said was all right, and they seemed like adults. waste.

It's better now, it turns out that I just awakened my spiritual power.

Not only the ability to predict, but in order to better help the shelter, Gemini also showed a unique healing ability.

They cut their wrists, and what came out was not blood, but a translucent white liquid. This liquid is the best healing medicine, even if it is an injury with deep visible bones or an injury of internal visceral rupture. As long as you touch the injured area and cover it with a layer during surgery, most of it can be cured.

This amazing healing ability shocked everyone.

For several days, the twins were surrounded by doctors and researchers at the asylum, studying the healing properties of the white blood.

This seemed to be a wrong choice - when the Geminis realized that their blood modified by white bacteria actually had such miraculous effects, they couldn't help but blame themselves... This kind of blood, which is more effective than the treatment cabin, may destroy them. Put in danger.

Apart from anything else, even if the people in this shelter don't keep them in captivity, they will definitely keep them under strict supervision and will never allow such a 'big blood bag' and excellent research subject to leave the shelter.

but it is not the truth.

After a while, the twins were shocked to find that the 'grounding' and 'captivity' they imagined did not happen.

In contrast, the shelter specially sent two psychologists to tell Gemini in an extremely serious manner not to hurt themselves casually and to use their own sacrifices to please others.

"We have medicines, treatments, doctors and nurses. We are not helpless in the face of illness, and we can even eliminate it easily."

The psychologist admonishing the Geminis said seriously: "There are many other spiritual structures in your blood that we cannot analyze yet. They are not just physical effects. So in a sense, you use blood to heal other people. It's equivalent to wasting your soul to heal others."

"Children, we know you want to help us, but the shelter, whether in the past or in the future, will never accept a child harming his own soul in exchange for our 'healing'."

"In the future, when you grow up and really understand the meaning of your actions, you can decide whether to do it again."

"As for now, eat some meat, sleep more, and take good care of yourself!"

In this way, the twins enjoyed a high-quality food supply for a period of time, until the doctor determined that they were very healthy and had replenished the nutrients they had lost before.

The per capita morality of the civilization of the previous era was so noble.

And in this environment, the twins gradually grew up, and their psychic powers became more and more powerful.

After ten years, they left the sanctuary and founded an organization in the wilderness.

That is the prototype of Huaiguang.

There will be one more update before 8pm! Finished writing the origin of the Huaiguang group
