Chapter 9 Mom? _2

Now, the instructor no longer cared about revealing his identity as a Spiritual Ability User; he wanted to directly support the rookies and officers on the thirteenth floor.

However, just as the instructor was moving swiftly to the height of the fourth or fifth floor,

his body suddenly shook and crashed back to the ground. Luckily, he managed to change his posture and landed safely.

But the instructor's complexion had become even uglier.

Because, on the fifth-floor corridor, a suited man wearing a sheep skull mask, holding a cane and bowing respectfully said, "Heretic, do not disturb them."

Watching the sudden appearance of the Sheep-Headed Man, the instructor narrowed his eyes and tensed up his muscles, clearly getting into a combative stance.

"Heretic? You're from the Ember Church!" The instructor's face contorted with a cold smile, but inside he felt a chill.

He suddenly realized that the invitation he had received this time might be a conspiracy!

The Ember Church, was a Spiritual Ability User extremist force that possessed many Taboo Items.

At the same time, they were a presence that all the Giant Cities were wary of; they believed that only Spiritual Ability Users were the new humans, and ordinary people unable to become Spiritual Ability Users were merely remnants of an old era.

Thus, they secretly guide talent-endowed ordinary people in various Giant Cities to become Spiritual Ability Users.

In this way, they aimed to increase the number of Spiritual Ability Users.

But this reckless behavior brought great risks to every Giant City.

They used all means to entice ordinary people to become Spiritual Ability Users, disregarding the risk of warping them. This created a large number of Sufferers and brought unimaginable harm to the Giant Cities!

Therefore, they were defined as a Cult! Once discovered, it was orders to kill without discussion!

Now, the appearance of the Ember Church had made this arrest operation uncontrollable!

"You are really seeking death! Don't you know that Processors nearby are rushing over here? Daring to reveal your association?" The instructor spoke coldly, rather daunted that a member of the church dared to show up before the authorities. This church member was quite confident.

"Seeking death? No, no, no," the Sheep-Headed Man calmly replied. "We only gave a mother who wanted to revive her child, a sliver of hope. I shall witness her success, and you all will witness the miracle of life."

"Hah! To describe human experimentation as something noble?" The instructor scoffed, casually summoning five throwing knives, which floated on their own, while he drew out a Longsword: "Come on then!"

"Divine Protection Path, huh? Controlling five knives simultaneously... very good!" The Sheep-Headed Man responded somberly: "Let us while away some time, then."

...

Meanwhile, the strange woman wielding the power of the Crimson Long Sword once again disturbed everyone's vision, attempting a sudden strike!

But she was again blocked by Cheese.

The power of this Crimson Long Sword was to temporarily disrupt vision, an actually formidable disruptive ability. If your vision disappears while you're fighting, how could you fight?

Unfortunately, no one gave her a chance for close-quarters combat.

Once Cheese sensed the visual disruption, he'd use his ability to interfere with the opponent, making the strange woman's multiple attempts at assault or breakout unsuccessful.

Although the strange woman was a Spiritual Ability User, she lacked combat Talent and tactical thinking. Even armed with Spiritual Ability Equipment, she was now at her wit's end, extremely bedraggled.

She no longer had a chance to escape or to win.

"Why do you want to harm me?" Out of the blue, the strange woman shrieked wildly: "I'm only doing it for my child! I've sacrificed so much, why do you stop me!"

"To harm someone else's child for your own? You call that sacrifice?" Cheese couldn't help but sneer, his words filled with intent to kill.

"What do you know? They promised me! Just sacrifice those people, and I could revive my child. Just a bit more, just a little bit more, I'm so close!"

And then, instead of fleeing again, she charged directly at Cheese.

She realized that every time she was about to escape, it was Cheese's voice that made her miss the chance.

She couldn't escape without taking out Cheese.

Thus, she used her Spiritual Ability Equipment once more, again disrupting everyone's vision, in an attempt to assassinate.

However, she was once again enveloped in Flames.

She hunched over her abdomen amidst the Flames, glaring fiercely at everyone.

Her eyes were filled with rage and malice.

But the others showed no reaction, no compassion or mercy, especially after seeing the corpses and bones of children all around.

This woman had been sentenced to death.

She no longer had any human rights!

And this time when she charged out of the Flames, she had finally exhausted her strength.

She weakly knelt on the ground, clutching her abdomen in pain.

"Just a bit more, just a little bit more..." Then, she stared blankly at Cheese: "Can I give birth to him and then die? Please, the child is innocent."

Innocent? You know that children are innocent? Everyone sneered.

With an indifferent look, Cheese said, "I have already checked your information, you are not pregnant. Your child has been dead for a long time."

She had listened through the earpiece to the assistant's search of all the information about the woman who, after a miscarriage years ago, had been to the doctors weekly for check-ups but had never been pregnant.

"No, I can feel it. He's here... he's come back..." the woman murmured, clutching her abdomen.

"It's fake," Cheese said coldly: "There's no such thing as the dead coming back to life."

The bizarre woman flew into a rage, picked up her longsword, but was smashed on the head by a Heavy Knight's hammer.

She collapsed to the ground, all strength gone from her body, clutching her stomach in agony.

Then, she breathed no more.

After confirming the bizarre woman's death, the officer said to everyone, "I will investigate every single person she has come into contact with."

Cheese gazed at the chaos of the room, letting out a deep sigh, "Too bad, we couldn't save the children."

Then, planning to leave, he knew that what followed was the work of the Guard Hall.

However, just then,

a deep voice suddenly rose, causing everyone to shudder in fright.

"Mom"

Following that, came the sound of flesh being torn apart,

everyone turned around in shock.

They saw a huge gash torn through the bizarre woman's stomach, yet no blood flowed out.

But as blood pearls began to drip,

everyone's gaze slowly shifted upward, witnessing a strange and petite figure appearing on the far end of the ceiling.

It made an eerie sound "Mom"

"Mom"

"Mom"

Then, it turned its head towards everyone.

Just one glance, and Li Yelai felt a terrible chill spreading down his spine.

It was a bizarre child, with skin red as fire and eyes pitch black.

Its mouth split into a grin, revealing a row of sharp teeth.

In its right hand, it held a Crimson Long Sword. In its left, it carried the corpse of a person wearing an animal mask, voraciously swallowing the flesh and blood.

As it devoured the flesh, its body grew rapidly. It morphed from a child to a youth.

Then, it dropped the corpse, looking at everyone.

The mouth full of sharp teeth opened slightly, "Mom?"

That moment, a boundless sense of fear, like a mountain, pressed heavily on everyone's hearts.

Even Li Yelai's heart pounded violently. This monster presented a danger far surpassing that of Skin Stripping!

Every part of his body was screaming a warning to stay away from this creature!

But no one moved first, fearful of startling the monster.

Until... Starfire suddenly raised his hand, igniting a lighter, trying to release flames!

But in the next instant, Starfire's lifted left hand vanished into thin air, blood gushing from the severed limb.

It took Starfire a fraction of a second to feel the pain, as he knelt painfully on the ground, not daring to let out the slightest cry.

For, the monster stood before him, his arm in its mouth, tilting its head as it looked at him.

This made Starfire dare not make any movements.

Then, with an arm in its mouth, the monster walked up to Cheese.

After spitting out the arm, the bloody mouth once again made a sound, "Mom?"

Cheese broke into a cold sweat; the pressure from this monster was too terrifying. She felt that before she could use her ability or finish saying the Suggestion, she would be killed!

The distance was too close, and the monster's speed was far too fast!

Oh how frustrating, is this where I die? Cheese thought, clenching the dagger hidden up her sleeve.

At least, she could still make one last stand. She wasn't like Starfire, who overly relied on his ability.

But the odds weren't good... She just hoped the others could seize the chance to flee...

Watching the monster get closer, its mouth slowly opening wider, Cheese's heartbeat quickened, and she gripped the dagger tightly.

However, suddenly, the monster's body paused. It abruptly turned around.

It sensed prey entering its Domain and abandoned the girl in front of it.

Its bloodthirsty and greedy eyes fixed on the newcomer.

But... it had guessed wrong!

Under the gaze of those Heavy Pupils, it... was no longer the hunter.

"Mom!" The monster cracked a smile, its joy apparent.

And Li Yelai, who had finally found the opportunity to activate Xiang Yu's Face, also smiled, "Are you f*cking blind?"
