Chapter 59: 055 Mutual Destruction (Second Update)_2

The father and son both saw the sight and their expressions changed instantly, retreating in unison once more.

The girl before them no longer resembled a normal person. Her clothes had completely burned away. Skin that should have been delicate on a child was withered and tightly stretched over her bones, creating a skeletal figure. Her body was riddled with injuries.

After her body withered, her head seemed disproportionally large. Her hair had long been burned away and multiple burn scars marred her dried skin. Suddenly, she lifted her head and looked towards Fang Jintang and Fang Yuyang with a ghostly gaze. Once more, flames ignited within her pupils.

The father and son both keenly sensed that the strange little girl’s aura was growing stronger, inducing a profound sense of crisis in their hearts! They retreated again, keeping a significant distance from her.

The girl’s body swayed as if she could collapse at any moment, but she stubbornly stood tall, step by step approaching the two.

Fang Yuyang gave it some thought, then tentatively said, “Your mom asked us to save you. Do you remember her?” Because the little girl’s appearance was so eerie and abnormal, Fang Yuyang suspected that she had lost her reason, and thus he tested the waters with his question.

It turned out to be the right move. Clearly, the little girl still had some impression of her mother. As soon as Fang Yuyang finished speaking, she stopped in her tracks, the flames in her eyes wavering uncertainly, as if they could be extinguished at any moment.

Witnessing this, the father and son tensed up inside. It wasn’t that they were scared, but seeing her in such a state, they felt pity. She had suffered greatly, and they couldn’t bring themselves to hurt her further.

However, as reluctant as they were, they remained highly cautious around her. If the little girl truly became aggressive, despite their pity, they would be forced to end her life.

The flames in the little girl’s eyes kept flickering—one moment solid, the next elusive—as though she was enduring an internal struggle. Just as the father and son clenched the weapons in their hands, believing they would have no choice but to act, the little girl opened her mouth, a frail call escaping her lips.

Her voice was probably damaged, a faint whisper like a cat’s mew, exceedingly hoarse and impossible to discern. Yet, she continued calling out again and again, her voice slowly growing louder until the father and son could finally understand. She was calling for “Mom.”

She did not head towards the father and son but turned and walked in a different direction. Her movements were slow, each step seemingly requiring immense effort.

The father and son frowned. Before leaving, they had set fire to the bodies to prevent zombies from feasting on the corpses; now, even if she searched, she would be unable to find her ‘Mom.’

Moreover, the little girl’s condition was clearly deteriorating rapidly. Though they didn’t have the Wood Element Superpower and were less sensitive to life force, they could tell that the little girl was at her limit.

They had considered the possibility that the little girl might have suffered misfortune when they first arrived, but they hadn’t expected things to turn out like this. The little girl had awakened a Fire Ability! Moreover, it was likely that the awakening had occurred after she had been taken away. The two explosions here could very well have been caused by her.

But her condition was evidently abnormal. Qu Qianhe had also awakened a Fire Ability, yet when she released flames, there were no flames in her eyes, nor was she burned so severely! The little girl’s situation seemed more like Deviation.

Although the father and son hadn’t witnessed the entire process, they had guessed most of it correctly. This was why they dared not approach her. Her emotions were clearly unstable, and if she truly had succumbed to Deviation, approaching her could provoke an attack.

Fang Yuyang watched her struggle to walk and, after a moment of thought, he tried again, “Shall I take you to your mom?”

The little girl slowly turned her head. However, as Fang Yuyang tentatively took a step forward, firelight flickered in her eyes again. Simultaneously, the father and son sensed a terrible energy gathering within her.

They had no choice but to retreat, saying, “Don’t be nervous; we are not going to hurt you.”

This time, the firelight in the girl’s eyes flickered and finally subsided. Tears then welled up in her eyes, dropping from the corners as she fell, still calling for “Mom.”

The father and son were startled, prepared to rush forward, but the energy in the little girl once again became violent. They stepped back a few paces, then saw flames erupt from her body. The fire spread rapidly, enveloping her entirely, and she burned silently away.

The father and son didn’t move. They both felt an inexplicable certainty that she was already dead. In such a case, it seemed better she be reduced to ashes in the flames, scattered by the wind, rather than have her body further desecrated.

Sure enough, the next moment the girl’s body turned into sparks that dissipated bit by bit, eventually extinguishing, leaving nothing behind.

After her death, the fire engulfing the vehicle eerily extinguished, revealing the charred remnants. None of the people in the car had escaped; they had all turned into twisted, ugly charcoal.

The father and son sighed and turned to leave.

With the little girl’s talent, if those people had not cruelly killed her mom but instead helped her, she could have become an asset after Awakening. But, devoid of humanity, they not only killed her mom but also captured her to attract zombies, driving her to Deviation and a shared demise.
