QT: Capture The Villain's Love - Chapter 262: An Earthquake?
When Tyler and the male lead were busy doing their things, something strange happened outside in the realm of the higher ups. The man with specs frowned as he observed the readings presented in front of his screen.
Why did it seem like the energy that was given to the transmigration system was being sucked away? Hadn’t he already turned the system on when Tyler got stuck in it earlier?
His frown deepened when 25% of the energy got sucked away. A bad premonition appeared in his heart.
When the others beside him saw this kind of expression on his face, they exchanged a glance and walked up to him. “Boss, did something happen?”
It had to be understood that all the people working under the man with aspects for all were terrified at this point. They had worked there and night to save two people at a time inside the transmigration system. They were already tired to the point of exhaustion. And now, they had all made mistakes they were not proud of and had made that important person inside the system so angry that he even threatened them many times.
Even their boss couldn’t do anything about that person, let alone them.
Now when they saw this kind of expression on the face of the man with specs, they couldn’t help but tremble at the thought of that person inside the system threatening them again.
The man with specs didn’t know what his subordinates were thinking about. He didn’t say anything and got up from his seat as he stared at the screen for a while. The ratings already turned into 25.78%, which wasn’t a good thing. Even the speed of the energy being sucked away had increased at this time.
If he didn’t do anything, both his brother and Tyler would be stuck in the world forever….
No! He would have to do something about this and save them! No matter how much he would like to blame his brother for this, it was his fault that they were both stuck in the transmigration system in the first place! He gritted his teeth as he looked at one of his subordinates and said, “Take care of this. I’ll be back.”
The subordinates were all confused. They looked at the screen and frowned. One of them couldn’t help but ask, “Boss, what’s with that rating on the screen?”
The man with specs paused his steps and said with a heavy voice, “We may need to force them out.”
All the subordinates were stunned at this reply. Before they could even ask what happened, their boss had already worked out of the station.
They were all frightened at this time, not because of that person inside the system, but about being forced out of it. They knew that this transmigration system might have an impact on the brains of humans if one is forced out of it. The situation might even turn to worse if they didn’t have enough power supply to force the people stuck inside the transmigration system out.
When they looked at the ratings on the screen, they immediately thought of their boss’s expression and understood something was up. One of the subordinates checked it out and cursed under his breath. “F*ck! The energy’s getting sucked!”
“What?!” Another subordinate’s face paled. “How? Then what about Tyler and him?!”
Someone else rushed toward the screen and saw that the ratings had reached 26% already. His entire body trembled in fright after thinking of all the consequences of this event. No one knew how the energy was being sucked away from this, but the lives of those two people inside the transmigration system would be in more danger after this.
Suddenly, the rating speed increased again. It reached 27% in the blink of an eye. The subordinate watching the screen stuttered as he said, “Wh-What the heck! Why is it like this?!”
The subordinates exchanged a glance and quickly realised that people stuck inside might not get even five minutes now. If they are not forced out, they might not even come out at all!
Everyone was horrified at this thought.

Was it possible for Tyler to not see there was something wrong at this point? He had just entered the room and had started to see the changes that had occurred on his computer desk when the entire room started to tremble. A frown crossed his forehead as he sat on the bed and clutched the bedpost with his hands tightly.
What the heck was happening now? He quickly moved toward the window and looked outside. But just as he looked outside, the scene shut him so much that he froze right then and there on the window.
The people walking around the street outside didn’t have a single idea that their world was shaking badly. In fact, they also seemed to have been shaking along with the ground. It was just that none of them reacted to it. To Tyler, this kind of situation almost seemed as if someone was standing behind a TV screen and shook it right and left.
He could tell that something had happened, but his imagination wasn’t as wild as thinking that the problem might be from the higher-up’s side. All of a sudden, the trembling stopped. It was so silent and calm that Tyler almost felt as if the trembling that had occurred earlier was just his imagination.
He frowned as he held onto the window tightly.
Just when he thought things wouldn’t get any worse, the travelling started again. And this time, it was so bad that he imagined himself inside a washing machine. The world around him was shaking even worse than an earthquake. But surprisingly, he didn’t feel like he would fall off. He could walk steadily even when everything around him was shaking.
Tyler’s heart lurched up to his throat at that. What the heck was happening?! How could something like this occur to him?! From what he could remember, all the small words he had visited before had never been like this. They were all steady and calm.
Was something wrong from the side of the higher-up’s?
The more he thought about it, the more he felt like it could be true.
