Chapter 266: Human Trust is Indeed Fragile
"You really won’t kill us?" Bai Yan asked.
The scene of the Terminal swallowing Insect Brain 2.0 whole still lingered vividly in her mind.
"Of course I won’t kill you," the Terminal chuckled lightly; its chilling voice resounded in Bai Yan’s mind: "But I need you to kill them."
"Bai Yan." The Terminal’s voice turned stern. "Life or death—you need to make a choice now."
Up until now, Bai Yan had a total of eight Beast Husbands.
Excluding Kui Mao, who had already died, as well as Jin Ao and Qing Zelin, who were trapped in the Mist Base.
Those who had survived the explosion under the protection of the Terminal were Xue Ruiyang, Bai Qiming, Kong Chengrui, Ying Fei, and the recently reunited Xi Qu.
Bai Yan’s hands trembled in panic. She kept her head down, not daring to meet the Terminal’s gaze, nor to face Ying Fei and the others.
The Terminal calmly enjoyed her frantic state but did not rush her.
Only after five minutes passed with no decision from Bai Yan did the Terminal finally speak again in a low voice: "Xiao Jinsheng has found us."
"She holds the Star System Map, and at this close range, my disguise won’t hold for long."
"Bai Yan, you need to make a decision now," the Terminal reminded her.
