Lina, Lu Shu, and the others noticed Chen Ping looking over and couldn't help but smile. Hehe~
Chen Ping rolled his eyes. This whole mess has gotten to him. Does he want to rebel?
After a moment of confusion, Gabriel's mind finally began to clear, and the small circles in her eyes returned to normal. She looked up at Chen Ping and involuntarily took two steps back. She couldn't help it; the two of them were too close, making her very uncomfortable.
After moving slightly away from the area where the strange aura was emanating from her, Gabriel composed herself and began to observe.
After looking around, Gabriel frowned and asked, "Excuse me, where is this place? And who are you?"
A clear and crisp voice rang out, tinged with a hint of doubt and confusion.
Seeing that Gabriel had finally regained her senses, Chen Ping breathed a sigh of relief. He smiled gently at Gabriel, trying to make his tone sound friendly and sincere, and replied, "Welcome to the Heart of the Divine Island. I am the island's owner. You can call me Chen Ping. This island was built by me and my companions, dedicated to creating a harmonious and coexisting space."
As for the people around you, they are my partners. This is Lushu, and over there are Linafil, Anlula, Menga... all important members of the Heart of the Divine Island.
Chen Ping paused for a moment, then continued to explain, "As for why you are here, I think what you need to know is that we acquired you and the Pool of Angels at the black market auction."
We have no intention of harming you. On the contrary, we hope to work together with you, harnessing the power of the Pool of Angels, to create a new beginning. I know you have many questions and confusions right now, and we can talk about them slowly. This is your new home, if you're willing.
As Gabriel listened to Chen Ping's introduction and explanation, the doubts between her brows were not completely eliminated, but because of the companion contract, she had a high liking for Chen Ping, and also a certain inexplicable feeling of closeness and dependence.
She looked around again, then at Chen Ping and the others, and nodded, indicating her willingness to listen to more information and try to understand and accept this new environment and opportunity.
Seeing that Gabriel's emotions had stabilized, Chen Ping seized the opportunity to use his ability to create a comfortable chair and place it next to Linafil, gesturing for everyone to sit down and talk. This relaxed and open attitude was intended to let Gabriel feel the sincerity and friendliness of the members of God Island Heart.
Gabriel noticed Chen Ping's actions and saw everyone sitting down in turn. She hesitated for a moment, then slowly retracted the dazzling sixteen wings behind her into her body, and then gracefully sat down in the chair that Chen Ping had specially prepared for her.
This not only conforms to social etiquette, but also expresses her willingness to temporarily lower her guard and participate in the conversation.
......
Chen Ping, who was in the main seat, spoke first: "Gabriel, right? You can ask me any questions you have now, but we don't know much about it either."
Upon hearing this, Gabriel's golden eyes flashed, then she tilted her head to look at Chen Ping. After thinking for a moment, she asked, "Um, I'd like to know if the black market has explained my background?"
Chen Ping and Linafeier exchanged a glance, and then Chen Ping replied, "No, according to the information on the auction items in the black market, you put them up for auction by the authorities. Apart from that, there is no other information."
Upon hearing Chen Ping's answer, Gabriel's golden eyes revealed disappointment. She lowered her head, remained silent for a moment, and then continued, "So, the black market didn't explain how I was treated as an auction item, right?"
Chen Ping and Linafiel exchanged another glance. Chen Ping replied honestly, "That's true. We only know that you come from Heaven and have the identity of an archangel. As for why you were treated this way and your complete background, we have no way of knowing. However, if you are willing, we can investigate the truth together and help you find the answer."
After hearing Chen Ping's reply, Gabriel was filled with mixed emotions, but she still thanked everyone. However, she still said, "There's no need to look for the truth. I already have some guesses, but there's no need to put in any more effort."
Gabriel checked her soul and found that the Heavenly Mark had disappeared. The Heavenly Mark was designed by the Lord of Heaven, and every little angel born from the Pool of Angels would carry the Heavenly Mark.
The mark of Heaven can only be removed by the Lord of Heaven. Well, there's no way around it; the Pool of Angels was created by the Lord of Heaven, so it can be said that the Lord of Heaven is the creator of all angels.
Gabriel continued calmly, “I suspect that the Lord of Heaven, for some reason, perhaps out of necessity or strategic consideration, chose to send me and the Pool of Angels out together.”
The disappearance of the Heavenly Mark proves my deduction; the Lord of Heaven did indeed make this decision. Although I am heartbroken and bewildered by this decision, since it is now a fact, I can only accept it and seek a new path.
Gabriel spoke calmly. Although she already knew that she had been betrayed by the Lord of Heaven, he was, after all, her creator. Although she harbored hatred and resentment, everything she had experienced from birth to the present was thus completely negated.
Furthermore, she knew about the black market. Although she was a homebody, Heaven had connections to such official forces as the black market. Since she was auctioned off by the black market, she was no longer a free person. Not becoming a slave was the best possible outcome for her.
She looked up at Chen Ping and the others present, her eyes shining with determination: "Now that I belong to the Heart of the Divine Island, I hope I can find a new sense of belonging here and contribute what I can to the Heart of the Divine Island."
"From now on, the enemies of the Heart of the Divine Island will be my enemies, Gabriel's enemies, even if it's Heaven!"
Chen Ping, Linafiel, and the others all looked at Gabrielle. Judging from the expression in her eyes, she was clearly serious. Although they exchanged glances, Chen Ping finally spoke.
Chen Ping: "Yes, we believe you. Besides, you and I have a contract. With this contract in place, you will also pose a danger to the Heart of the Divine Island."
Upon hearing this, Gabriel was momentarily stunned. A contract? Right, given her status as a black market auction item, it must have come with a contract scroll, which were mostly master-servant contracts or slave contracts.
Given her current strength, she shouldn't be auctioned off without a contract. However, she didn't sense the existence of a master-servant contract or a slave contract.
