The wait was long, and Tianchi opened his eyes when the last robot collapsed to the ground.
The deep blue eyes reflected the sky above, with countless stars falling into them, creating a dreamlike scene.
She looked at Qin Tan.
"Qin Tan, it's a pleasure to meet you. I am an angel."
The angel introduced itself once again to Qin Tan.
This time, it is a complete angel.
Their hands clasped together, touched lightly, and then separated. Qin Tan looked at the angel before her, but couldn't tell the difference.
"What do we do now?"
If nothing unexpected happens, Base 8 is in complete chaos right now, and we don't know how Xia Shuang and the others are doing.
"Don't worry, your friends are all fine."
Code that Qin Tan couldn't understand flowed through the angel's eyes, scrolling rapidly before disappearing in the blink of an eye.
At that moment, Qin Tan looked back at Base No. 8 from afar and felt that the color of that screen was even dimmer.
"You can see what's going on inside the base?"
The angel's abilities exceeded Qin Tan's expectations; she had thought they would have some impact outside.
"Can."
"My eyes are everywhere."
The angel touched his eyes, which held a strange emotion.
Noticing Qin Tan's gaze, the angel walked to Qin Tan's side and stood beside her.
"These eyes belong to Number One."
Number One was a complete replica of Tianchi, so from the beginning, its eyes were the same deep blue as Tianchi's.
Later, Tianchi dug out those eyes and installed them on her body.
"Qin Tan, I need to tell you something. Two of your friends have been arrested, but they are not in immediate danger."
This news made Qin Tan's eyes narrow for a moment.
Who is it?
“Xi Yang and Xia Yao.”
"According to you, Xia Yao walked right into the trap, while Xi Yang was captured while covering the retreat."
"That's brave, isn't it?"
Angels are very anthropomorphic; she used to try to understand the meaning behind human emotions.
But since she isn't a real person, this often raises a question.
For example, why did Xiyang choose to stay?
"I guess so."
Qin Tan smiled faintly, recalling how Xi Yang always hid behind her when trouble arose.
"As long as everything is alright, let me know immediately if anything changes."
It now appears that the rest of the people were not captured by Tianchi.
That's right. Apart from Xi Yang, who's a little lamb, everyone else in the team is quite formidable.
"The problem now is, how do we get back?"
She walked right into a trap.
There are probably a bunch of people waiting for him in the base.
"We can't go back; Base 8 is under lockdown."
"I can infiltrate the base's network surveillance, but to take over access, I need to enter the base."
The problem now is that they can't get in; it's a dead end.
Qin Tan was well aware of this. If there was any place closely related to Base No. 8, besides this place, there was only one other place.
In the darkness of night, Qin Tan gazed at the mountain behind Base No. 8.
The mountaintop is covered with snow and ice that never melts, which, in the vast darkness of night, resemble a hazy veil, revealing a subtle beauty.
There might be something to hide about Tianchi there.
"That's a good place, but you need to see this before you make a decision."
With a wave of his hand, the angel created a virtual screen in front of Qin Tan, displaying a video notification.
The main characters are Tianchi and... a pair of prisoners.
"Qin Tan, I know you're watching, and I know the angel is with you."
“I have no hostility toward you, and I can forgive what you did tonight. I promise that as long as you bring the angel back, I will forgive you for what you did and grant you any request.”
"I can tell you anything you want to know."
In the picture, Tianchi is smiling and composed, like an elegant nobleman. He sits in a chair, and his eyes, which are just like those of an angel, lack the emotional fluctuations that humans should have.
"But if you don't cooperate with me, then you'll have to say goodbye to your companions."
In the scene, both Xi Yang and Xia Yao are wearing strange collars around their necks, with a green light constantly lit inside the collars.
The two were like drowning dogs with their necks tied, at the mercy of Tianchi.
It's a bomb collar; if it explodes, it can turn both of them into mush.
"I want to see an angel before eight o'clock tomorrow morning."
"If you haven't appeared by then, then you'll only be able to meet in hell."
"Qin Tan, I'm waiting for you."
This concludes the video.
"This is a video that Tianchi placed on the dark side. He knew I could infiltrate the network and capture this video."
"Qin Tan, he is threatening you."
"For the sake of your friend, you can send me back."
The angel's words puzzled Qin Tan quite a bit.
"You went to great lengths to get me to bring you out, wasn't it all for your freedom?"
"If it's because of those underlying codes, my companions and I weren't residents of your Base Eight, so our deaths have nothing to do with you, right?"
Qin Tan saw many contradictions in the angel.
She had been lying in wait for so long, using them to escape, only to find herself now willingly entering that cage.
If Tianchi catches them again this time, the angels will face more than just slumber.
Judging from her own experience, she would never allow an uncertain factor to remain by her side.
If they will not submit, then destroy them.
