Gazing at the sea turned colorful,
Seeing the target whose head was bashed in not only suffering minimal damage but instead entering an entirely new posture,
Hua Yuan, standing a hundred meters away, actually began to laugh, and her laughter grew louder and louder.
It wasn’t mocking the other party, nor was it self-deprecating.
It was a kind of crazy laughter that vented emotions, a laugh of relief.
Hua Yuan finally understood why her once strong sister, who took good care of her, died because of the Warrant,
And she also realized that even now, standing at the pinnacle among Pseudo-Persons, she was still weak, still incapable of opposing the Monster Avatar sent by the monster.
Even the journey to the Corner was full of thorns, a slight inattention could lead to death.
"Is this what Grandmother meant? To make the path that had been smooth for me all twisted and perhaps even likely to die at this juncture.
Indeed, I’ve stayed in a crisis-free environment for too long that I had almost forgotten what ’danger’ means.
But this is a bit too exaggerated, I can’t see any glimmer of hope for victory.
I have reproduced in my brain all the methods I could think of, yet I cannot find any plan that can kill this guy."
Hua Yuan was very clear about the current situation,
Very clear about the terrible status of her sisters,
And had already given the final answer in her heart that it was impossible to win.
Perhaps the only way really was to trust Isabella and go to the coordinates given by her, located in the nearby forest.
Hua Yuan was reluctant to leave; she had no intention of running away.
She just watched the Dean undergo the final transformation,
Watching the Color Tentacles on the other’s neck float freely,
Watching as the other gradually adapted to the physical body and slowly approached her.
It wasn’t that she didn’t trust her sisters, nor that she looked down on Isabella, the weakest among sisters.
It was her own issue.
Facing a Monster Avatar that was beyond opposition, where no hope could be seen, her subconscious depths were preventing her from making any "run away" actions.
It seemed that if she "ran away" something even more terrible and desperate would happen; it would be better to stay and fight to the death than to run away.
As the Monster Avatar approached, the color fog had already enveloped the area.
The sister with eyes within Hua Yuan seemed to have recognized the problem, have recognized the fundamental reason for Hua Yuan’s unwillingness to escape. She did not try to persuade but began to use her special ability.
A peculiar Pupil Skill acted upon Hua Yuan’s brain from within, causing her to lose control over her own body.
With a tongue bearing eyes hanging outside her mouth,
Once the eye sister assumed control, she immediately commanded Hua Yuan’s body to bolt, rushing toward the important coordinates given by "Wu Wen".
However, the control over the body did not last long.
Severed hands resembling flower pistils forcibly dismantled the eye sister’s control over the brain, seemingly triggering Hua Yuan’s self-defense mechanism.
Regaining control, Hua Yuan was stunned because she realized she was actually running away.
Upon realizing the act of "running away," and when she acknowledged the chase from an unstoppable being behind,
A taste of despair choked her,
Seeped into her lungs,
Her breathing began to quicken.
A piece of memory, buried deep within Hua Yuan’s brain, was surfacing.
Because what was happening now was very much like a certain memory.
As this memory emerged, Hua Yuan no longer had the demeanor of a gang leader, her eyes only showing helplessness and despair, turning into a vulnerable girl.
Hua Yuan had been in the orphanage since she started remembering things.
Thanks to the United Nations’ good support for welfare institutions, Hua Yuan’s childhood was very happy, her beauty and intelligent mind always earned her extra attention from the teachers.
Upon graduating from primary school, Hua Yuan could no longer stay at the orphanage.
She would go on to attend a designated middle school, and other expenses like tuition, boarding, and basic living costs would likewise be subsidized by the state; she didn’t need to worry.
Hua Yuan, who grew up happy and well-educated, looked forward to her future life with great anticipation.
Upon entering school, her outstanding appearance attracted a lot of attention. She was also very smart, always ranking among the top on any exam, but problems soon arose.
She, too shining, did not become the center of everyone’s attention.
By the time she looked back, she had already distanced herself greatly from her classmates; on the surface, everything seemed fine, but in reality, not one person wanted to befriend her.
When it came time for class officer elections,
Hua Yuan voluntarily nominated herself for class president but failed to be elected.
From this point on, she finally realized that she was being isolated.
This feeling was entirely different from the large family at the orphanage, causing Hua Yuan to become increasingly reticent and her grades began to slip.
Just as Hua Yuan was feeling down, sitting alone in a corner of the cafeteria,
A senior boy burst into her world.
Radiant with confidence, brimming with vitality.
Completely different from those immature male classmates of hers.
The two of them ate together every day and soon established a "romantic relationship" in private.
However, Hua Yuan remembered the orphanage teachers’ teachings very clearly and would promptly push the other party away whenever they attempted any excessive actions.
In the second year of junior high,
When Hua Yuan celebrated her fourteenth birthday.
A boy who had already graduated and left the school snuck back into campus to bring her a gift. The atmosphere and timing were perfect, but when the boy tried to kiss her, he was still stopped.
What was supposed to be a happy birthday scene turned into an argument.
The boy quickly left the school, and they did not contact each other for a long time.
Hua Yuan returned to being alone and began to doubt whether the orphanage’s teachings were correct. Perhaps when a male-female relationship develops to a certain extent, it should advance deeper instead of being so consistently resistant and rejecting. Thɪs chapter is updated by novel{f}ire.net
Just as she had decided to apologize to the boy, to her surprise, he sent her an apology first, saying he would respect Hua Yuan’s thoughts in the future and would not commit similar actions again.
With her worries resolved, Hua Yuan also let go of all her mental burdens.
In addition, the two of them planned to watch a movie together on the weekend.
Finally, the weekend arrived.
Hua Yuan put on one of her few beautiful outfits and shyly arrived at the meeting spot.
Oddly enough, her boyfriend told her that the planned cinema had no good movies and the prices were too expensive.
He knew a private cinema that was cheap and suitable for two people to watch, though located in an old resettlement district and a bit secluded.
Without thinking too much, Hua Yuan followed him there.
She trusted the mature boy in front of her and followed him to a remote resettlement district.
But the boyfriend didn’t lead her to any building. Instead, he turned into an alleyway that few knew about, where the cameras had already been covered up.
A group of people was already waiting inside the alley,
A group of people who had long reached adulthood.
And Hua Yuan’s boyfriend had long been expelled from high school due to a malicious incident and had been mingling in society for some time.
Enamored by Hua Yuan’s appearance and already well-defined physique, the group readily paid the boy double the agreed price.
Even with her sports achievements ranking in the top ten of her grade, the fourteen-year-old Hua Yuan found it hard to resist the coercion of several adult men.
Even when she struggled to break free, she could only run aimlessly in the alley that had no exit.
She desperately wanted to run back to the orphanage, into the Dean’s embrace, back to that warm big family and never leave again.
But all she could feel with her palms was the damp and cold wall.
In front of her was the dead end of a cul-de-sac, with tall walls blocking all possibilities... and even a mattress had been prepared there.
It was really painful,
but she did not make a sound,
She could have screamed for help, but she could not utter a word, because she didn’t know who could save her.
She could only let the evil of this world taint her completely.
Tears flooded her eyes, blurring her vision so she couldn’t see the faces before her clearly.
Or maybe all faces looked the same,
All bearing an ugly, terrifying Monster Avatar.
When Hua Yuan stepped into the forest beside the hotel, running amidst the dense trees,
It was as if she had truly returned to the age of fourteen,
Back to that damp, dark, and narrow alley.
Stepping on the filthy water on the ground, running deep into the alley with no exit, she wanted to hide back in the orphanage but could no longer return... But this time.
Her escape seemed a bit different.
During the run, Hua Yuan’s throat gradually opened up; her subconscious wanted to call for help because a reliable presence had appeared in her memory.
Although this reliance did not belong to her,
And the support she received from the other party was very brief,
It was warm and burning hot.
Just as the colorful Color Tentacles were about to catch up with Hua Yuan,
A name she used for calling out for help loudly burst from her throat:
No hero came to the rescue,
The hand formed from the colorful Color Tentacles firmly grasped Hua Yuan’s shoulder, stopping her attempt to escape.
Was that Hua Yuan’s body had not been destroyed.
At the same time, an abnormal heat was rising from the soil under her feet.
Hua Yuan suddenly looked back, towards the rear.
Not only was she caught,
But the village chief’s trouser leg was also grabbed by a hand, a hand that emerged from the soil, an arm wrapped in burned marks and intertwined with wire.
At the same time, a sound like that of an engine starting could be heard.
