The King of Alien Creatures [End Times]

Early morning on April 2081, 12.

The second day of Shen Ke's birthday.

Although people woke up as usual, they were not as happy as someone who had just successfully passed the age of 18. There was no laughter, everyone was silent and weeping.

Today is the day to bury Shen Ke.

It was supposed to be buried the day after his death, but Shen Haiying insisted on letting him spend his 18th birthday.

The deceased is the oldest, and as Shen Ke's only child, it is understandable to do so.

What's more, this is the final decision that Shen Haiying can make for Shen Ke.

At this moment, Shen Haiying, who was dressed in black, had swollen eyes and was staring blankly at a corner of the room. She sat silently by Qin Liu's company.

She has been crying for the past few days. Although she is very sad, she can't squeeze any tears.

A few silver strands appeared overnight in the originally jet-black hair.

Although Qin Liu had tried her best, every time she saw Shen Haiying's heartbroken look, she would think that if she could work harder and understand more about the condition, it would be great.

So far, there are no more people under the age of 18 in the base camp, which may be a good thing, at least there is no need to worry about it, and no longer have to endure the torture of seeing people suffering but being powerless.

At this moment, Yuan Hao, Bu Gu, and Wang Anyi were ordered to bring out Shen Ke who was kept in the freezer so that they could be buried outside.

They helped dig Shen Ke's tomb the day before, and they will bury him underground when the time comes today.

Wang Anyi took the lead in pushing open the door of the freezer, a gust of cold air hit his face, and he shivered.

The temperature here is kept at around minus [-] degrees all year round. Except that it was not used much during the reconstruction after the disaster in the past two years, and even repaired, it has been used to store frozen products.

Originally, it was only used to preserve frozen food. After all, those who died after the age of 18 were basically buried on the same day. There was really no way to keep Shen Ke here.

Out of respect for the deceased, when storing it, I deliberately chose a place that was not too cold or corrupt.

But when Wang Anyi approached, he found that there was no one on the bed.

empty.

"What's the situation?" Wang Anyi muttered.

He turned his head and saw Bu Gu and Yuan Hao who had the same frightened eyes, and subconsciously took a step back.

"Where's Shen Ke?" Bu Gu poked his head over, with an indescribable feeling welling up in his heart, he asked in a panic, "It's impossible to come back to life after death, right?"

Wang Anyi forced herself to calm down, shaking her head seemingly calmly: "No."

probably not.

Unless it is parasitized by some Cretan organism.

"Could it be..." Yuan Hao didn't continue.

Originally, some dismembered Cretan creatures were frozen in the freezer, and the light tone was cold and dim, which made the atmosphere here strange. Now the person who should be lying on the bed suddenly disappeared.

It's even more chilling down the spine.

There is only one possibility.

"I won't be eaten by some low-temperature-resistant Cretan creature!" Bu Gu added what Yuanhao hadn't finished.

As soon as the words fell, the atmosphere of terror enveloped the three of them again.

After a while, Wang Anyi sank his heart, shook his head, and said very firmly: "No, it's impossible."

"But..." Before Yuan Hao finished speaking, he heard a weak voice.

"Yes, who is it?"

Three people: "!!!!"

The hairs on Bu Gu's body stood on end, his eyes widened, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he turned his head to look at Wang Anyi next to him. He really didn't want to scare himself, but there would be people in such a freezer. talk? !

The same is true for Yuan Hao on the other side, he even leaned closer to Wang Anyi: "Listen, did you hear that?"

Wang Anyi, who was stared at by four eyes, swallowed hard, took a deep breath, and patted the hand holding his arm: "I heard, it's okay, calm down."

Wang Anyi, being the biggest of the three, forced himself to calm down. Just when he turned his head to look at the source of the sound, the voice sounded again, slightly louder than before, with a distinctly hoarse feeling.

"anyone there?"

The three looked at each other, and Bu Gu clasped Wang Anyi's arm firmly and said, "This voice, why does this voice sound familiar?"

"I, I think so too." Yuan Hao added on the side.

Wang Anyi took two oil bottles and walked in the direction of the sound, not forgetting to reassure people: "It's all right, don't worry, I'm here."

The surrounding lights were dim and gloomy. Wang Anyi tried hard to absorb more light into his eyes to see what was in front of him. At the same time, he tried to calm down and communicated with the other party who didn't know whether it was a person, a ghost or a thing: "Yes, people are here. ?"

no respond.

As the distance approached, Wang Anyi's heart kept trembling, and he could even feel the "thump" of his heart hitting his chest violently.

"Is anyone over there?" Wang Anyi asked again.

Although there was no response this time, all three of them heard some slight noises.

It sounded like something tapping the ground.

Wang Anyi could feel that the two hands holding her were gradually closing in. Don't panic at this time, otherwise panic would lead to chaos.

And Shen Ke can't just disappear for no reason.

Whether it's life or death, human or ghost, Wang Anyi will find out for him.

If it was really eaten as Bu Gu said, then he would kill this monster too.

Thinking of this, Wang Anyi slowly loosened his clenched fists, and suddenly felt less scared.

He boldly strode forward, and saw a group huddled in the corner, like a person.

Wang Anyi was stunned for a moment, and called out tentatively: "Shen Ke?"

Bu Gu and Yuan Hao who heard the name also froze and looked at each other.

Bu Gu tugged Wang Anyi's sleeve: "Brother Yi, did you have an illusion?"

How could it be Shen Ke?

Everyone saw with their own eyes that his heartbeat stopped and he was unable to recover.

"Yeah, weren't you there at that time?" Yuan Hao said.

"But." Wang Anyi pointed to the group of people in the corner who were covered with a layer of hoarfrost and still trembling from time to time, "Isn't this Shen Ke?"

·

Here comes someone.

Oh shit.

Finally someone is here!

Shen Ke hugged her body and hid in a corner, huddled up in a ball, shivering from the cold, fighting with her upper and lower teeth.

His body stiffened moment by moment, and he was about to turn into a piece of human-shaped frozen flesh, confused with the frozen Cretan creatures around him.

Heaven pays off.

He persisted for so long and finally got the person.

In order to wait for someone to come, Shen Ke repeatedly warned herself that she must not sleep, as she would really die if she fell asleep.

— 54 hours ago.

Because everyone was immersed in the grief of losing a member, no one noticed that Shen Ke's original backflow, and even some of the coagulated blood suddenly returned to normal.

But the monitor still does not show the heartbeat.

Just like that, they pushed Shen Ke to the freezer, waiting for her to be buried after her 18th birthday.

Accompanied by heart-piercing cries, shouts, and cold touch, Shen Ke suddenly woke up.

He seemed to have had a very long, very real dream.

In the dream, he was tied up on a hospital bed, and various things were injected into his body.

Those things made him physically miserable.

He was trembling, trembling, delirious, mad...

He wanted to ask the man to stop, to stop, but the man who couldn't see his facial features ignored his request at all.

At the end of the yelling, he had no strength, and he couldn't make a sound in his throat. He could only watch them inject colorful medicinal liquid into his body, then draw it out and put it into a bottle.

so back and forth.

Shen Ke's body was hot and cold, and his consciousness was blurred, so he could only lie numbly on the bed and let others manipulate him.

By the end, it seemed someone had announced his death.

Freed.

And then……

Shen Ke couldn't remember.

I don't know how long it took, but when he opened his eyes again, he was already in the freezer.

All around were frozen lumps of Cretan creatures.

Although he was wearing clothes, it was still not enough to support him to stay in the freezer for a long time.

Gradually, Shen Ke could only feel the boundless and endless cold, and in the end she was even a little unconscious.

He began to be confused whether this was reality or a dream, but his firm belief in wanting to live supported him and prevented him from falling down.

He moved from the cold bed to the only warmer corner of the entire freezer, squatting like this, curled up in a ball, trying to keep warm, waiting for someone to come.

I don't know if I can wait, and I don't know whether it is death or rebirth that is waiting for him.

at last.

After an unknown amount of time, Shen Ke, who was in a daze and was about to fall asleep, vaguely heard the sound of the door opening.

It is the voice of hope.

He opened his mouth and tried a few times before he could utter a sound.

In a trance, there seemed to be several figures in front of her eyes, but Shen Ke couldn't tell whether they were real or not, and she kept calling for help just out of instinct.

Can't die.

Haven't gotten the prize yet...

·

"son!"

"You're awake!"

Shen Ke regained consciousness, slowly opened his eyes, focused his gaze, saw the person in front of him, and asked softly, "Where am I?"

When Shen Haiying heard him speak, she covered her mouth with excitement and couldn't speak, only tears flowed down uncontrollably, and she repeated in her mouth: "Great, great!"

Shen Ke opened her mouth, and after a while, said a word in a hoarse voice: "Mom."

"Hey." Shen Haiying held him tightly with both hands, squeezed the tears from her eyes, and smiled, "Mom is here, Mom is here, it's great that you're fine... woo woo woo."

Shen Ke smiled slightly, then turned to look at the other people beside the bed, everyone was there.

It appears he is not dead.

Shen Ke turned her head and stared at the ceiling.

He is so good.

Hold on.

not dead.

"Shen Ke, I knew you were lucky!" Wang Anyi wiped her eyes and said with a smile.

Shen Ke twitched the corners of her mouth and squeezed out a smile: "Well, life is too big, I can't die."

"Okay, okay, let me go, he has been in low temperature for a long time, and he needs to be further observed and treated." Qin Liu came over with the medicine and squeezed into the crowd.

At the moment when she saw the medicine in her hand, Shen Ke subconsciously wanted to hide, her eyes were filled with fear of the medicine in her hand.

"What's the matter? It's just glucose. It's a supplement." Qin Liu captured his movements and explained with a smile.

"Oh." Shen Ke responded in a low voice, because he overreacted.

This is not a dream, no one has harmed him.

After the routine inspection, it was confirmed that there was only a little frostbite, and all the signs returned to normal, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Especially Shen Haiying, who had white hair all night, while weeping with joy, stared at Shen Ke intently, as if she had never seen him before.

Shen Ke felt uncomfortable being stared at, and stretched out her hand to help wipe away her tears: "Don't cry, your eyes are swollen like goldfish."

"Well, Mom didn't cry, these were tears of excitement." Shen Haiying laughed while crying, she wiped away her tears, and kept saying, "It's good to be alive, it's good to be alive."
