Surrounding the machine were four figures.
They were Herta, Mobius, Ruan Mei, and Verity.
They stood at its four corners, tightly hemming Elysia in. Their scrutinizing gazes from above completely sealed off any possibility of escape. Mobius had even begun picking up various instruments that looked deeply ominous and gesturing them over Elysia's body, as though she were about to dissect her on the spot.
This was bad—not a stroke of romantic luck!
It was a honey trap!!
Qianyi, save me—!!!
Elysia let out an exceedingly mournful silent cry in her heart. At this life-or-death moment, her rapidly spinning mind made a decision in 0.1 seconds. Though her body was locked down so tightly that she could not even move a finger, another self still lay hidden deep within her consciousness.
The Herrscher of Erosion!
"Little Erosion, hurry! Help Elysia invade the network here! Call Qianyi to come save me!"
"Yes, yes, what am I supposed to do with you?"
With the Herrscher of Erosion exerting her power, Elysia's plea for help was successfully sent to Qianyi's phone.
After sending the message, Elysia breathed a sigh of relief. Then she blinked those crystal-clear pink eyes and flashed an incomparably sweet smile as she pleaded, "Hehe, can't we make peace~??"
"Make peace? At a time like this? Elysia, surely you're joking?" Mobius stared at the pink elf girl who was putting on a brave face, a nearly delighted sneer curling at her lips. "When you dragged me out of my laboratory by force the day before yesterday, made me wear those flimsy dresses, and took me to that noisy bathhouse to 'improve our relationship,' weren't you awfully impressive? 'A straightforward approach defeats a tsundere'? 'Lips are soft too'? Today, I'm going to see whether your body is soft as well!!"
