"I don't know, I didn't even have time to read the detailed info packet Bailong released before I got hit with heavy interference. Just now the last thing I received was a single ultra‑simple message they aggregated energy to send out—just one word: 'Run'. You should've gotten it too, right?"
Only then did Hundred Emperors snap out of it. It checked its comm auxiliary brain and sure enough, heard a terrified shriek from Bailong.
"Ruuun~"
Hundred Emperors: "Tch, that's clearly two words!"
Double-eyed Beast: "That's not the point! The point is: run! Zzzzz…"
All of a sudden, the interference in the information stream ramped up, officially announcing the cutoff of contact between Hundred Emperors and the Double-eyed Beast.
Hundred Emperors muttered to itself, "Wait… what am I supposed to do? What the hell is going on?"
Why did Bailong sound that terrified?
From here on out, Hundred Emperors would have to make its own decisions.
