"Found it."

She walked to the edge of the pool and began to feel around where the outside met the ground.

During her earlier search, she noticed a tiny crack in a certain spot.

It looked like the natural cracks and wear of a building after long-term use, so she just glanced at it.

But now that I think about it, perhaps it has another meaning.

Based on her memory, Qin Tan quickly located the crack and compared it with the card; it fit perfectly.

"Hurry up and insert it."

Fan urged him on, and Qin Tan did as he was told.

The card was inserted, and after a dripping sound, the pool shook.

Immediately afterwards, the water surface, which was as tall as a person, began to ripple, and water pipes appeared around the pool, drawing out the nutrient solution.

It's very fast.

Before long, the water was gone.

When only a thin layer of water remained at the bottom, a sound came from the hidden door that Qin Tan was powerless to do anything about.

The pressure from the lost nutrient solution caused the hidden door to rise and open on its own, eventually revealing a passage leading below.

"I'll go scout ahead first."

After calling out to Qin Tan, Fan Zhi jumped in first.

Qin Tan calmly followed Fan Zhi's attempt to seize the initiative.

The fall was very short; in the blink of an eye, we reached the lower level and saw what was inside.

This floor is very empty, with only a large, transparent glass pillar in the center.

Inside the pillar is an entity that looks exactly like the Stand.

Looking up, the ceiling was covered with wires of various colors, each ending in a wire that connected to an angel.

Those power lines provide various services for the security of Base No. 8.

From this perspective, it seems that the existence of Base 8 is based on the exploitation of angels who have no human rights.

On the surface, everyone regards the angel as a companion.

This is the cruel side of Tianchi.

He elevated the angel to a divine status, but deprived her of her freedom, allowing an imposter to receive the praise that rightfully belonged to the angel.

Qin Tan observed the angels inside, while Fan Zhi was using his solar flames to try to melt the glass.

Unfortunately, the materials used here are even more advanced than those used in the counterfeit products.

Sunlight has no effect on it.

"It seems that the things here no longer belong to me."

Although Qin Tan didn't say it directly, he guessed that the core of the entire Angel System lay in the angels themselves.

Now, he has no way to touch the other person.

Despite being somewhat prepared, I was still disappointed.

"I'll give it a try."

Qin Tan said dismissively.

She bypassed Fan Zhi's presence, opened her bracelet, and entered a line of code into it.

This is code left by an angel, which can be used to awaken the other person.

The bracelet was on, with some of its programs running automatically and flashing lights.

Qin Tan placed her hand on the transparent glass.

After waiting for a while, there was still no response from the angel.

"You haven't been scammed, have you?"

Fan Zhi joked.

"I won't lie."

The response to Fan Zhi came not from Qin Tan, but from the voice of an angel.

Inside the glass, the angel who should have been asleep opened its beautiful eyes.

Her hair was floating, and her deep blue eyes were as beautiful and mysterious as the night sky.

She raised her hand and ripped off the wires binding her body.

"I'm glad you believe me, but we don't have time to catch up now." These words were spoken to Qin Tan.

"Ten minutes to go, starting now."

"My brother will know I'm awake in ten minutes."

“His body contains the chip from the original Number One. That chip can sense my state, but I can only block it for ten minutes.”

The angel, who was speaking, walked to the edge inside and raised his hand to touch Qin Tan's palm, which was placed on the glass.

"Please take me out and take me to the Mechanic Valley."

"Only there, when I get my incomplete underlying code, can I completely block my brother's senses from me."

The angel's tone was sincere.

The emotions on that beautiful face were just as genuine as those of a human being.

The existence of angels is unusual, but she never hides that she is unusual.

Perhaps in her view, she and humans can coexist.

The deal had already been made, and Qin Tan had no intention of stopping there. She nodded and took out the Grim Reaper's Scythe.

A flash of light appeared, and an "X" appeared on the glass. Then, the angel inside raised his hand and punched the intersection.

With a loud crash, the glass shattered.

"What exactly is this sickle made of?"

Fan Zhi couldn't help but ask.

He had researched the Reaper's Scythe; it was a weapon that had existed since ancient times.

Even if people back then had better technology, they couldn't compare to us in the application of metals now. But in his opinion, there was nothing in the world that the Grim Reaper's scythe couldn't cut through.

"you guess."

She knew that this sharpness did not come from the scythe itself, but from the enhancement of the princess's resonance with her.

More precisely, it's a power that the princess possesses, a power that seems to belong to her.

Similar to the Black Crow's Curse.

She simply imbued this power onto the Reaper's Scythe, which led people to believe that everything was due to the Reaper's Scythe.

Qin Tan, who left those words behind, cast a long shadow beneath his feet.

"Come here, I'll take you out."

The presence of angels is too dazzling; it's impossible to simply walk out unnoticed.

Coincidentally, her shadow could store things.

“I cannot access the relevant information inside, and I should refuse, but I trust you.”
