Chapter 417 George's Obsession
In the night, a spaceship with a full sense of technology silently shuttled through the desolate mountains.
Soon the spacecraft came to a snow-capped mountain, and an entrance slowly opened on the top of the snow-covered mountain.
After the spacecraft entered, the entrance was closed again, and the snow-capped mountains returned to their previous appearance. It was impossible to tell with the naked eye that this was the entrance to a secret base.
After the spacecraft stopped, the hatch opened, and more than a dozen men in black robes, headed by a skinny old man, stepped out of the spacecraft one after another.
The skinny old man turned around and said, "Thank you for this mission. You guys can go home and rest for a few days. I can just go see the president by myself."
More than a dozen men in black robes nodded and retreated.
George is also one of these men in black robes. He is 34 years old this year. He got married seven years ago and currently has a beautiful wife, two lovely sons, a daughter, and a golden retriever.
Perfect for the family!
Leaving the land where he had lived for more than thirty years, he took huge risks and went to the ocean to perform a mission. Although the whole process did not take long, George missed his family all the time.
Similarly, he was worried all the time, fearing that he would die while performing his mission. In that case, he would not even be able to see his wife and children for the last time.
Fortunately, he finally came back alive. And as soon as he returned to the base, there was no mess and he could go home directly.
George said hello to his companions while laughing, and then came to his single office in the base.
As soon as he entered the door, George's face instantly turned cold. He quickly closed the door, locked it from the inside, and drew the curtains before slumping down on the chair.
The George at this time was completely different from the energetic George just now!
His face was pale, and cold sweat poured all over his body like rain. He seemed to be in great pain. But he still gritted his teeth and refused to make any abnormal noise.
"Huh...huh..."
George carefully took a few deep breaths, then tremblingly untied his black robe, and took off his shirt, revealing a body of strong muscles like a knife and an axe.
But there was a wound on his left rib!
The wound is not big, only the size of a coin. But it is such a small wound, but it is very conspicuous!
The wound looked very hideous, as if it had been burned by hot oil, and the surface was already pitch black. The key was that bursts of black energy were still exuding from the wound, and that strange black energy was spreading crazily around.
But around the wound, there was a shining golden halo. This halo firmly locked all the black energy into the wound.
However, this balance seems to be about to be broken, and the black energy is slowly gaining the upper hand in this tug-of-war. Outside of the golden halo, fine black lines have appeared on the surface of George's skin.
It looked like something black was spreading along the blood vessels. But because of the golden halo, their path of spreading was a little difficult.
"Damn it, damn it! It's just such a little wound, just such a little wound, why is it so serious!"
"Hey, George! What are you doing? Why did you lock the door? We are going to have a drink first. Do you want to go? If so, we will wait for you!"
George was startled, and quickly put on his black robe, trying to keep his voice steady: "Oh, I'm not going, you go, I have to go home quickly, the children all miss me."
"Hey, married people are different! But what are you doing with the door closed? And why is your voice not right?"
"Ah? It's okay, it's okay. I'm changing clothes. You guys hurry up and go have a drink. I won't accompany you this time. Come to my house another day and I'll treat you!"
"Okay, okay, let's go first! By the way, remember to go home and watch TV. China is probably in chaos now. It's just a pity that Tom, his self-destruction..."
The sound gradually faded away, and George secretly breathed a sigh of relief. When he took off his black robe again, he found that the black air at the wound had spread even more, and the blood vessels surrounding the wound had completely turned into a ferocious black.
The densely packed capillaries all turned black and bulged, and they looked really scary and weird.
George took a deep breath, his right hand suddenly lit up with golden light, and then he placed his right hand on the wound under his ribs.
For a moment, he seemed to have suffered great pain, and his facial features were distorted.
After about half a minute, George's expression finally relaxed. He raised his hand, and the golden ring surrounding the wound under his ribs became brighter.
The black energy that had already broken through the blockade of the golden ring and was rapidly spreading throughout George's body was suppressed again at this time, and the speed of spread obviously stopped.
George quickly changed his clothes and said to himself with a very firm expression: "I must see my family one last time. I must... As long as I can see them once, just once, I will decisively end myself..."
