Liu Hui didn't seem to mind, nodded, and said okay.

She handed the strange infant in her arms to a limping deep crimson member. The group began to move towards a distant wall, followed by the deep crimson members behind them, as well as the researchers. The crowd moved in a mighty formation, as if they were moving house.

Liu Hui stopped in front of the wall. About 2 meters above the ground, there was a pendulum clock, the old-fashioned kind with a metal casing.

The pendulum clock was covered in dust, obviously untouched for a long time.

Liu Hui stepped onto a wooden box on the ground, stood on it, and then stopped the pendulum with her hand. As the pendulum stopped, Liu Hui immediately jumped down and retreated. After about 10 seconds, a rumbling sound suddenly rang out, like some old, huge machine had started to turn.

Immediately afterward, the cement wall in front of them began to shake, then cracked open from the middle, revealing a larger space behind it, surrounded by retractable metal frames.

Jiang Cheng looked at it. It seemed to be a huge elevator, large enough to accommodate dozens of people, although it looked very old, at least 20 years old.

"This is an escape passage left behind when this place was originally designed. You can take this elevator directly to the first basement level of the orphanage. There's an equipment room there, but it has never been used to store anything." Liu Hui opened the outermost metal door, first letting all the deep crimson members and the test subjects onto the elevator, followed by Jiang Cheng and the other two.

But as the last fatty stepped into the elevator, the elevator's metal door suddenly closed, trapping Jiang Cheng and the others inside.

The fatty was startled, turned around, and looked at Liu Hui outside the door in disbelief. She was standing just outside the door, with the researchers, her face calm and composed.

"What are you doing?" The fatty was shocked. They had been talking so nicely just now, how could she suddenly turn against them?

Wu instantly moved to the elevator door, raised his knife, and was about to break the door open, but Liu Hui's voice immediately rang out, "Don't move, there are explosives buried under the elevator!"

Wu naturally wasn't afraid of explosives, but Jiang Cheng and the fatty couldn't take the risk. Seeing Wu's hesitation, Jiang Cheng reached out and stopped him. "Don't worry, let her speak."

Liu Hui gasped for breath, she had witnessed the black-clothed man's methods. "I have no malice, I will let you leave, and I hope you can fulfill your promise." Liu Hui looked at Jiang Cheng and said very seriously.

"But I'm not leaving, none of us plan to leave. People like us have already made a big mistake, and I don't want you to forcibly take us away."

There were wide enough gaps in the metal door to fit a person's arm through. Liu Hui, standing outside the door, took several thick kraft paper bags from a researcher and threw them in through the gaps.

"These are what we could find temporarily, about the history of this base, but it's just a rough outline. We don't want to, and can't possibly hand over the detailed records of the experiments. Those are the dirtiest things, those things shouldn't be leaked out, they should be buried here forever with us sinners."

Liu Hui showed a wry smile. "So we can't go out, not a single one of us, otherwise those people outside will definitely try every means to pry open our mouths. They also want to know what miracles we have researched in this base, and want to know if the Night Watcher's ultimate plan can be used by them."

"This world never lacks ambitious people. Even if they don't now, they will remember us one day in the future, and when they need us, plans similar to the deep crimson will still be restarted."

"We are tired, just let us stay here." Liu Hui slowly knelt down in front of the elevator, and with her, many of the researchers behind her also knelt down. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry children, for making you endure so much pain, I hope… I hope this all ends here."

As soon as she finished speaking, Liu Hui took out something from her pocket that looked like a remote control. As the button was pressed, the elevator began to rise with a roar of machinery.

Liu Hui and the others slowly raised their heads, watching Jiang Cheng and the children of this new generation of deep crimson members leave, leaving this prison they had never left, hoping that they could embrace the outside world.

As the elevator stopped, the three walked out. The fatty then realized that these strange-looking deep crimson members were not fierce at all, but were actually filled with fear in their eyes. A large part of them didn't even dare to leave the elevator.

It wasn't until Wo took the lead in walking out that the deep crimson members, with Wo as an example, cautiously poked their heads out one by one, then took small steps, walking out in a very comical manner.

Everyone left the basement and walked all the way to the lobby of the orphanage. Wu was the first to notice the abnormality. He immediately stopped and stopped Jiang Cheng.

Looking out through the glass door, the sky outside was actually dark.

But what time was it? Jiang Cheng took out his mobile phone, and the time on it showed that it was a little after 3:00 PM. Jiang Cheng immediately dialed Yao Shunyu's mobile phone. Fortunately, it was connected after only one ring.

"Did you succeed?" Yao Shunyu's voice was full of surprise.

"Where are you?" Jiang Cheng asked, seizing the time. "Why is it dark outside?"

"Ah?" Yao Shunyu's surprised voice instantly changed. "How is that possible? I'm not far outside the gate of the orphanage, the sky is bright, and there is plenty of sunshine."

Hearing this, Jiang Cheng's heart skipped a beat. He immediately thought of the Night Watcher remnants who had disappeared after being attacked. Those people had also mentioned that it was getting dark before they disappeared.

At this time, the signal began to become unstable, and Yao Shunyu's voice also became intermittent. "From your location, can you see the lobby in the orphanage building?" Jiang Cheng asked.

"Buzz—, buzz buzz—"

"Can…can see, I have binoculars, it's a…glass door, behind the glass door is…buzz buzz—, the lobby, there's no one in the lobby…"

The next second, the communication was interrupted.

According to what Yao Shunyu said, the world in their eyes was very different, so the location where they were now was another space.

It was the domain mentioned in the last communication record of those missing Night Watchers.

Wu drew his knife and walked step by step towards the glass door. Looking closer, the outside was not the kind of darkness in the complete sense, but a strange gray, as if everything was coated with a layer of gloomy color. Jiang Cheng suddenly had a feeling that this world was terribly monotonous.

Wu turned his head, a rare look of solemnity flashed between his eyebrows. He looked at Jiang Cheng, and in the next second, Jiang Cheng understood and immediately nodded. "I understand, this time the person who came is not easy to deal with, you can just let go and don't hold back."

Wu nodded, and once again focused his attention on the boundless grayness outside.

A faint white line appeared in the distant sky at some unknown time. As the white line got closer and closer, everyone heard a rumbling sound, and at the same time, the ground was also shaking.

A salty and fishy smell drilled into his nostrils. In the next second, Jiang Cheng's pupils suddenly shrank. He saw clearly that the white line in the distance was actually a monstrous wave a hundred meters high.
