Noah could hear the disdain and mockery in Ouruola’s voice, and she could feel that this hatred was absolutely not fake.
“So, what about the Sin Organization? You’re still a high-ranking member of that group?”
“Ha, what organization? It’s just a bunch of pitiful people huddling together for warmth,”
Ouruola said with a self-deprecating sneer.
“Our group gave ourselves codenames based on the Seven Deadly Sins. My codename is Envy.”
Before this, the Sin Organization gathered all the Failed Products in Area A and tried to force their way through the Main Gate, but this Research Institute was too sturdy.
No matter what we did, we couldn’t damage the gate.
One of our high-ranking members, Pride, claimed he could crack the gate’s password, but whether he was bluffing or not, the gate absolutely couldn’t be opened with the password.”
When Noah heard that someone could crack the gate’s password, her eyes lit up, but when Ouruola said the gate couldn’t be opened with the password, Noah’s face sank again.
“Why? Isn’t cracking the password and opening the door a good thing?”
Ouruola shook her head and sighed.
“Every Failed Product thinks that, but unfortunately, it’s impossible.
I used Soul Out-of-Body Magic to pass through the gate and saw the world outside.
The outer layer of this Research Institute is completely packed with TNT high explosives.
If anyone opens the gate from the inside using the password, those explosives will detonate immediately!
At that moment, the entire Research Institute’s Failed Products will be caught in the blast, and not a single one will make it out alive.
I warned them many times, but not a single person in the Sin Organization believed me.
They just thought I wanted to steal their achievement and be the first to escape.
In the end, to prevent me from obstructing them, my former teammates locked me deep in the A-4 Area.
You know the rest.”
If Noah had only felt disgust toward the Truth Organization before, now she began to hate this organization that had nothing to do with her.
These lunatics, in order to prevent the Failed Products from escaping the Research Institute, were willing to destroy the entire area to trap them here.
Noah’s face was so dark it looked like water might drip from it.
She frowned deeply and asked Ouruola again, “So, there really is no other way?”
“I don’t know…”
Ouruola shook her head.
“When they locked me up, Pride was still trying to crack the gate’s password.
I don’t know how far he got.”
After hearing Ouruola’s explanation, Noah silently raised her pistol and pointed it at Ouruola.
Her expression was somewhat gloomy as she questioned in a mildly angry tone.
“Why didn’t you tell me these things from the start?
Since you knew it was impossible to leave through the gate, why did you take me there?
What exactly are you plotting?”
After listening to Noah’s accusations, Ouruola helplessly shook her head.
“Plotting? What could I be plotting?
We’re just strangers passing by.
You rescued me, and I agreed to guide you—that’s all.
I originally planned to ditch you on the way and go to another area.
Who knew so much crap would happen?
If you want to kill me, I have nothing to say.
Please do it quickly and make it painless!”
Hearing Ouruola’s seemingly guiltless words, Noah hesitated after all.
She suddenly remembered that this pistol was given to her by Ouruola.
If Ouruola really had some ulterior motive, why would she so casually hand over something that could save her life?
Thinking this, Noah smiled faintly.
She raised the pistol toward Ouruola’s head and said softly.
“Alright. Take care.”
Bang—!!!!
The bullet flew past Ouruola’s ear, almost grazing it.
Iron shavings flew.
Ouruola looked at the bullet hole on the shipping container, then turned back and glanced at Noah in confusion.
“Why? Didn’t you want to kill me?”
“I missed,”
Noah said expressionlessly as she holstered the pistol.
She adjusted her gear and looked at Ouruola with a faint smile.
“Since you’re not dead, how about continuing to guide me? Guide?”
Did Noah believe what Ouruola said?
Half and half.
After all, there was no way to verify the situation outside.
Ouruola said there were explosives outside the gate, but who else had seen it?
She could say whatever she wanted.
More importantly, the Failed Products in this Research Institute had already been declared dead.
If they couldn’t break through the Main Gate soon, starving to death was only a matter of time.
So no matter whether Ouruola’s story was true or false, as long as there was a glimmer of hope, these Failed Products would never give up.
Because they would rather gamble that Ouruola was lying than slowly die trapped in here.
As one of the high-ranking members of the Sin Organization, Ouruola couldn’t have failed to understand this reasoning.
Yet even so, she still revealed this information and warned her teammates not to open the gate.
That was very strange.
She knew that her teammates wouldn’t believe her, and that it would even cause chaos and panic, yet she still did it.
Noah couldn’t understand Ouruola’s behavior, but her tone and attitude seemed so sincere.
Even when Noah fired at her, she didn’t even flinch.
Could Ouruola be that magnanimous?
Or maybe, if she hadn’t announced this information, she would have felt guilty when the explosives detonated?
Noah doubted it.
Unable to figure out what she was trying to do, Noah decided to stop thinking.
She knew she no longer trusted Ouruola, but killing Ouruola wouldn’t help her escape this place at all.
Noah felt that the information she had was still too limited.
Unless she personally went to the gate to gather intelligence, sitting here and thinking blindly wouldn’t find a way out.
At worst… she would just die one more time…
‘Noah thought.’
Hearing Noah’s request, Ouruola was stunned for a moment, then asked in surprise,
“What? You still want to go to the Main Gate?
I already told you the gate can’t be opened, and the Sin Organization is holed up there.
Still want to go?
You’re not afraid of death?”
Noah shook her head.
“I can’t verify whether what you’re saying is true or false.
I can only believe you after I see it with my own eyes.
Do you understand what I mean?”
Seeing that Noah was unmoved, Ouruola frowned deeply.
“You mean you want to take me along to die?”
“You’ve actually died several times already,”
Noah said with a light laugh.
Noah meant that during her previous Death Returns, Ouruola had also died several times alongside her, but Ouruola didn’t understand what Noah was saying at all.
“I don’t understand what you mean…”
“Heh… If you don’t get it, then don’t.”
Noah walked over to Ouruola, reached out and put her hand on Ouruola’s shoulder, then gently breathed on her ear.
“Come on. You promised to guide me…”
Looking at this mesmerizing face before her, Ouruola swallowed nervously.
She knew she wasn’t a lesbian, but that face was just too bewitching.
Ouruola even felt that a woman like her couldn’t resist this charm.
She involuntarily nodded and said helplessly, “Alright…”
Charisma was only part of it.
This lunatic had just killed three people…
Who knew what she’d do next…
“Heh heh, then I’ll leave it to you~”
With her goal achieved, Noah said in a cheerful tone.
