“That’s right, unbreakable, if you break it the way you think, it will only make the mechanism work faster, and even cause the whole underground space to collapse instantly.” Brangelina shook her head.
“…”
Paige turned her eyes to the screen.
As if by sense, Enrico’s eyes had been cast on the camera, and she met his with a turn of her eyes.
She knew he couldn’t see her, but she subconsciously held her breath, not even daring to put vulnerability in her eyes.
“Paige,” Enrico called to her.
“In.” She made a low sound.
It was as if Enrico could see her through the camera, even his eyes were doting, a needless smile on his face, “Just in case, and I say just in case, if you really can’t be saved, you’ll burn everyone and raise the ashes.”
He couldn’t accept that his ashes were stained with people other than her.
Such an understatement.
At that, Paige’s heart clenched hard and her eyes soured, and she clenched her fists before containing herself and saying, “Enrico, there are no what-ifs.”
She could save him.
That was it.
With that said, Paige then turned on the button connecting the rest of the people on the line once more, took a deep breath, and said calmly, “Listen up, folks, there’s no way to make the mechanism stop completely in the main control room, so you’re all going to need to save yourselves, and I’m going to inform each of you of your escape routes, which you’re going to need to memorize, and then together at the same time you’re going to escape quickly and break through the final barrier Jump up.”
At the sound of her voice, everyone who stayed on the uppermost level froze, either in shock or fear, their brows each furrowed extremely tightly.
“If you can’t make the final leap up for survival, then you’ll only fall and die.”
This underground space was a bottomless purgatory, and the people at the top could barely save themselves.
They’ve been trapped here for so long, it’s time for the people outside her to notice something’s wrong and come in to save them, and help them out, and ideally the people on the upper floors should be able to save themselves.
“…”
The crowd was a little panicked.
“Remember, the lives are your own, the chance to survive is only this time, and those who are weak in the knees will only meet death.” Paige spoke coldly, stirring up their desire to survive.
“Okay, Sister Paige, you said we can remember.” Nick said as he stood in the passage.
Rachel slumped to the ground and lifted her face to look at Enrico, who was extremely far away from her, before grinning a somewhat mocking grin with blood covered lips.
Enrico just sat there without any extra movement, his lethargy was gone as he listened to Paige’s voice and his face sank for a moment, “Paige, don’t you fuck with me!”
He had no problem with her wanting the upper levels to move to save themselves.
But he heard the flavor of a bust in her tone.
Brangelina stood aside and turned her eyes to Paige, also understanding what she meant, “You’re trying to force a rescue.”
“Yes.” Paige said, it was better than just waiting for everyone to die together.
“Paige!” yelled Enrico as he stood up from the shaking room and yelled at her sternly.
“…”
Paige didn’t pay him any attention.
Brangelina looked at her with a somewhat complicated gaze, “Then you should know what Rachel designed the lower triangular structure for, the path to the lower level is wrong and complicated, it takes martial arts and intelligence, you can save one, you can’t save them all.”
When Rachel designed the mechanism, it is estimated that she thought of many possibilities, even if in the end, someone forced to rescue, but also need that person’s physical strength and brain power, if there is a mistake, he or she will follow the death, even if he or she can be rescued, but also can only be rescued by one.
“Brangelina, the smartest woman in Dinosaur, couldn’t you save another one?”
Paige turned her eyes to her, her black and white eyes dripping with trust.
Brangelina stood beside her, stunned at the words, and then let out a self-deprecating low laugh, “The smartest woman, I haven’t heard that title in how many years.”
Then, not waiting for Paige to say anything else, she added, “Well, since Paige believes in me so much, being a great aunt naturally lives up to your expectations.”
Great Aunt …
Hearing such a title, Paige fell into a trance.
“Paige, if you dare to mess around, I’ll shoot right now to accelerate the organs to move and turn!” Enrico held the mirror wall with one hand, his voice cold to the bone as panic swept across his eyes.
At that, Paige looked at the man’s figure on the screen, lowered her head to the microphone, and said word for word without hesitation, “Then I’ll die with you, and let Gabriel become an orphan.”
“Paige!” said Enrico, his face green.
“Wait for me, Enrico, and we’ll go home together.” With that, Paige closed the channel to him and continued, “Okay, I’m going to tell each of you the escape route, which mirror door to break, and when I say start in a moment, you’ll count down 30 in your mind and then you’ll have to run as hard as you can.”
Brangelina stood by and just watched as Paige stated each person’s escape route without looking over the design drawings again.
Her thoughts were very clear.
Looking at it once and remembering it all, so worthy of being Blanca’s daughter.
Back then, if she had been the one to lead the Folsom family and come up with the plans, she probably wouldn’t have lost to Annie.
The Gustin family’s villa had also gotten lucky, with father and son getting Annie from the Davis family and Paige from the Folsom family.
Brangelina watched her appreciatively until Paige had finished all her routes before saying, “Paige, do you want me to save the old man or Blanca?”
Hearing this, Paige was stunned and looked at her sideways.
“I don’t mean anything else, it’s natural for you to save your man with your own hands, and as for the old man and Blanca, I’d like to leave the choice up to you.” Brangelina’s attitude was calm and composed, “It’s not that I don’t dare to choose, but I think you are more suitable to choose.”
She knew exactly what kind of feelings the old man and Blanca held for Paige.
Paige could choose for THE Folsom family for once, and those two were dead happy.
“Why are you so calm?” Paige asked as she looked at her.
Wasn’t that her father and her own sister? And yet she was so calm about their deaths.
Hearing this, Brangelina let out a low laugh, a touch of bitterness crossing her eyes, “All these years, I feel like I’m just a dead person, and isn’t it calm when a dead person looks at a living person?”
She has long had no feeling for life and death.
Paige stood there, looking at her fixedly without speaking.
Brangelina continued, “If you want to ask my opinion, both are almost the same, Blanca is at the bottom, almost close to the gears, give up her is the most cost-effective, the old man is old, the body has long been overdrawn, but also in the compulsion, even if you save it … ”
“You save the old man.” Paige interrupted her, stating her choice without hesitation.
At a time like this, it would be pointless to push around over this.
At that, Brangelina is stunned, and subconsciously looks at her sister on the screen, Blanca dangling covered in blood, the man dropping down a little, gradually approaching the gears.
Brangelina watches and nods, “Okay, I’ll save the old man.”
Paige lowers her head and speaks into the microphone, “Ready for the countdown, here we go!”
With those words, Paige and Brangelina made a mad dash outside the main control room.
