Lin Xian's expression shifted slightly.
Hua Xiaoling looked up at the sky and said, "The High Tower Civilization is more advanced than Human Civilization and learns very fast. They could never really let you escape. A method that's been used once can absolutely never be used a second time, so I have to very regretfully tell you that those who escaped, including you, me, will all die."
She glanced at her watch and sighed. "Judging by the current time, they should all be dead already."
"Do you not remember the Dark Creatures Storm you encountered in outer space during the Vanguard Plan?" Hua Xiaoling said. "That was the High Tower Civilization's second layer of insurance."
Lin Xian fell silent at her words, his expression darkening.
"You don't look all that surprised."
Hua Xiaoling said, "Oh, so it seems you'd already thought of it."
Lin Xian slowly walked over to Chu Yan's corpse, reached out to caress her cold face, and murmured, "Yeah… how could you ever let us get away…"
