What can compressed biscuits taste like...

As if he could see what she was thinking, Gu Bifang smiled and said, "This is the most acclaimed research result of Xinyue Technology in recent years. As a special edition, each piece here has a different flavor."

He looked through the instructions on the back of the package. "There are red wine, chocolate, fresh oranges, or scrambled eggs with tomatoes... Those guys' tastes are getting weirder and weirder."

Gu Bifang paused and asked again, "How about it, do you want to try it?"

“…Give me one.”

"okay."

Gu Bifang smiled with satisfaction, opened the package, picked up a piece at random and handed it over.

Chi Yu reached out and took it, observing it curiously.

For reasons of hygiene and preservation, the bag contains individual small packages... Of course, you can't tell the flavor simply by looking at the appearance.

Sure enough, no matter which world, no matter what the level of technology... it is difficult to resist the charm of blind boxes.

Chi Yu sighed and opened the package.

Just as she was concentrating on the compressed biscuits in her hand, a breeze blew over silently.

Chi Yu seemed unaware and stuffed a palm-sized biscuit into his mouth.

Then, she turned around suddenly, grabbed an invisible object, and used her five fingers to twist it upwards!

"what!"

Suddenly, a scream was heard from somewhere nearby.

Bang bang bang!

The trajectory appeared out of nowhere and wedged into the wall in front of it at an angle.

Gu Bifang was startled and quickly took a few steps back and took out a pistol from his purse.

However, facing the corridor that was empty except for Chi Yu, he was a little confused for a moment, not knowing which direction to aim.

Chi Yu, however, did not have similar worries.

She held the submachine gun in her left hand and pointed it accurately at the man's chest: "Do you want to take off the optical camouflage on you yourself, or do you want me to shoot you and then search you out bit by bit?"

There was a moment of silence on the other side, and then a trembling male voice sounded: "I, I can do it myself..."

Chi Yu hummed, and did not urge him, but he did not move the gun away either.

The other party did not dare to delay. After two or three seconds, he took off all his disguises and appeared in front of Chi Yu and Gu Bifang.

He was a relatively young man with ordinary looks and a bit unkempt. He did not look like a well-trained manual worker who exercised regularly, but rather like a researcher who often stayed in the laboratory.

Chi Yu looked him up and down and raised his eyebrows slightly.

Seeing that the man's right hand holding the weapon had been firmly grasped by Chi Yu and there was no possibility of escape, Gu Bifang, who was hiding behind, breathed a sigh of relief inaudibly.

Still holding the pistol, he took two steps forward and observed the man's clothes.

A simple crewneck shirt, sweatpants and windbreaker, with a slightly blurred seal printed on the edge of the jacket pocket - a tall tower of pitch black and pure white.

"It's the people of Babel."

Gu Bifang said, "As you expected, the fish has taken the bait."

Chi Yu nodded.

Watching the interaction between the two, the man couldn't help but let out a bitter smile: "Just now, were you guys deliberately exposing this flaw?"

Chi Yu didn't answer.

She took the captured hostages and, together with Gu Bifang, found a room to hide in.

The hostages were obviously aware of their current situation and very considerately reminded them that since this building was originally built as a research institute, in order to prevent the experimental subjects from escaping and causing irreversible consequences, the doors and walls of each room could be manually reinforced a second time.

Without waiting for Chi Yu and Gu Bifang to question him, he took the initiative to tell them how to activate the protection.

The attitude is extremely cooperative, and the main goal is to make sure that the enemy can't find any fault at all.

After Gu Bifang activated the protection according to the hostage's instructions, Chi Yu sent a message to Xia Ta through the [Wishing Crystal].

After receiving the message, Xiata and Elnia retreated almost instantly. The former only left a sentence "I'm so tired" and went into the crystal ball without looking back.

Chi Yu was speechless, but he didn't force her out again.

——Gu Bifang and the hostages are all here. If he talks to Xia Ta at this time, they will definitely look at him as if he is a lunatic.

She doesn't want it.

Over there, the hostage was still talking nonstop about the information he had, trying his best to save his own life.

"The energy shield in this research institute uses the most advanced technology in Zhuzhou City. A senior engineer from Crescent Technology personally led the team to guide the installation... Although it is a castrated version, it can withstand two rounds of rocket launchers without any problem!"

"Even if that group of people attacks us, we can still buy at least two minutes to escape..."

Gu Bifang interrupted, "Besides the main door, are there any other escape routes in the room?"

The hostage opened his mouth: "...No."

What the hell are you talking about!

People are blocking the door. Let alone two minutes, even if you are given twenty minutes to escape, where can you escape to?

Gu Bifang resisted the urge to roll his eyes: "You know so much... Are you a senior executive of the Tower of Babel?"

"No." The hostage shook his head and said bitterly, "Why would the top brass be sent to a place like this? I've worked in this institute before, so I'm just familiar with some of the facilities here."

"researcher?"

Gu Bifang stroked his chin and asked, "Why didn't your emperor send his divine guards over here, but chose a guy like you who has no fighting ability to die?"

After these words came out, the hostage's expression became even more bitter: "This... I don't know."

"Divine Guards?" Hearing this unfamiliar term, Chi Yu asked casually, "What is that?"

"It's the emperor's private army." Gu Bifang replied, "The emperor often regarded himself as a messenger of God, always claiming that he represented the will of the gods... This is also the reason why he named his power the Tower of Babel."

Gu Bifang spread his hands, "The most loyal warriors under the messenger of the gods are naturally the 'Divine Guards'."

…Technology has developed to this point, but there are still people who believe in the divine right of kings.

The most important thing is that he was able to accomplish it.

She wouldn't even dare to tell such illogical jokes.

Chi Yu complained in his heart.

She quickly brushed the question aside and walked over to the hostage.

"Your emperor didn't send you here to assassinate me with a pistol, did he?"

Chi Yu said softly, "Tell me, what kind of generous gift did he prepare for me?"

Hearing this, the hostage showed an expression of struggle.

In front of him, Chi Yu slowly and calmly changed the magazine of the submachine gun.

Listening to the crisp and slow sound, a drop of cold sweat slid down the hostage's forehead.

He swallowed and said in a dry voice: "Just now, I didn't mean to shoot you."
