"I'm fine here, but as I stare at Tianchi, something just doesn't feel right."
Qin Tan made contact with the others through Xi Yang's brain network.
She now not only has to extract the curse from the bodies of all the residents of Base 8, but also has to prevent someone from infiltrating the crowd to assassinate her.
This will require some arrangements.
For Qin Tan, multitasking meant her brain was working at high speed, and her thinking became increasingly clear.
“Look at the ground.”
Bai Yucheng's voice rang out, and those who had a moment to spare looked down at the ground.
The ground was already covered in blood after the chaotic battle between the two sides and the Butterfly Queen's self-destruction.
Bloodstains, indistinguishable between friend and foe, piled up like rivers.
In this river, something is churning and gradually forming a whirlpool.
"The ground is changing its material composition, a material I have never seen before."
Old Ge's aged and weary voice emerged.
His words undoubtedly confirmed that something was amiss, but they had no idea what Tianchi was up to.
"It's abyssal energy."
Qin Tan's voice echoed in everyone's minds.
How did you know?
Xia Yao asked instinctively.
"Because I've seen it."
Or perhaps, she was once in the depths of despair.
"Do you still remember the plan for Tianchi that the angel mentioned?"
"He wanted to make contact with the Abyss, and he was willing to sacrifice all the residents of Base 8 for it."
"But would someone like Tianchi really place all his plans in the Angel Network so that the angels can tell us everything?"
Angels are invincible; anything left on the internet cannot escape their capture.
But if those things remain hidden in Tianchi's mind, even the angels will have no way of knowing.
Someone as thoughtful as Tianchi couldn't possibly have missed this scene.
Qin Tan even had the feeling that the other party was actively pushing forward their plan and was even more eager for the people's resistance than they were.
"The probability that Qin Tan said is ninety percent."
The angel was the first to confirm Qin Tan's existence.
"According to the system analysis results, the brother's plan is real, but the content is the opposite."
"Those butterfly queens are the sacrifices offered to open the door."
"The residents of Base No. 8 are the city wall that blocks Qin Tan."
This is the angel's idea.
The crowd surged, and Qin Tan was submerged in it. Even though she was strong enough, she was still somewhat disheveled under the onslaught of so many people.
She took out the Grim Reaper's Scythe, pierced the heart of one of the attackers, and then lifted his head high into the air.
"No one is allowed to push. Whoever pushes will be the last to receive treatment."
She drew a circle around her feet.
"No one is allowed to enter the circle."
Qin Tan is not dangerous, but he keeps his word.
Those blood crows that were supposed to be working were ordered by Qin Tan to leave the group.
"We're not crowding anymore, we're not crowding anymore."
“Listen, we’ll listen, we won’t join the circle.”
Someone shouted, fearing that Qin Tan would really abandon them like this.
Having gotten a temporary respite, Qin Tan directed the Blood Ravens to continue working.
She touched her collarbone and felt as if the black crow was about to come back to life.
"So how do we stop it now?"
Residents driven mad by the fear of life and death are impossible to reason with.
Qin Tan is too busy to handle things, so for now we can only rely on them.
“Kill my brother.”
The angel provided the best answer.
"It's too late." That was Bai Yucheng's reply.
Ice crystals also appeared on the bodies of those surrounding Tianchi.
Before they could even seek Qin Tan's protection, they were betrayed by Tian Chi.
The gruesome corpse lay on the ground, merging into the vortex of earth.
In a short while, the vortex expanded to the size of a single door.
Xia Shuang gestured for everyone to step back.
The vortex is not transparent, so it is difficult to see what is inside.
The eerie aura emanating from it was enough to prove the danger.
Xia Shuang used her abilities to freeze the vortex.
The overlapping ice layers covered it, the vortex stopped spinning, and the vortex, encased in ice, looked just like a blooming flower.
"It's done?"
Xi Yang was very happy.
"No!"
Bai Yucheng denied it.
Then, in the next moment, the ice cracked, and the sound of the crack expanding was so crisp.
With a "crack", the vortex reappeared.
Fan Zhi immediately used his solar flames to scorch the edge of the vortex.
It has some effect, but it is still negligible.
"I feel it's draining my power."
Fan Zhi hesitated before expressing his thoughts.
“It’s not an illusion.” Xia Shuang moved her hands, as her power was also drawn into the vortex when she froze it.
The vortex uses external forces to strengthen itself.
Sizzle, sizzle!
The angel standing in the crowd lifted his foot and walked into the vortex.
She was very fast; by the time Xia Shuang and the others realized it, she was already at the edge of the vortex.
She bent down and reached her hand into the whirlpool.
"Angel!"
Xia Shuang called out to her, signaling her to come back quickly, but the angel did not respond.
"Do you really think that after all these years, I would keep a robot around who could betray me at any moment?"
Tianchi's tone was mocking.
How could he not have tampered with the angels?
After all these years, surely he'll beat his father at least once.
"Stop him! He's planning to make the angels the vessel for God's descent."
Qin Tan reminded everyone.
She looked at the out-of-control residents around her and felt a bit awkward.
If things continue like this, it will be difficult for her to provide support to the others, and Tianchi must have anticipated this.
