254 Limit
“How many?” Kate repeated the question.
Mr. Yuri shrugged. “Perhaps 6? Anyway, kill these giant mutated animals. Don’t you know that reverse healer crystal cores can be used by anyone and also the most delicious meal for other awakened.”
He sneered and looked at Kate as if he was looking at a prey instead of a human being. In his opinion, reverse healer was only useful for helping others to advance through ranks quickly.
It was even better than those gems that could only be used by specific elements.
The reverse healers core could be used by anyone.
Though, their bodies had to be thrown away because they definitely didn’t want to practice cannibalism.
Kate’s eyes turned red.
Her guess was right.
These reverse healers were dying in this City H and because of the special cores they had inside their body, they became the target of the other awakened. If they were not strong enough, all that would happen for them would be their death and being used by others.
.....
She looked at Mr. Yuri as her body trembled while behind her, Lucy was still slamming against the metal wall. Clearly, she had heard about this matter but she purposely never told Kate about it.
Because it was too sad.
“I see.”
Kate lowered her eyes as more and more giant mutated animals came towards them.
When she first awakened this strange ability, she only thought of using it against the giant mutated animals in order to protect herself. At that time, she only felt that being able to kill these giant mutated animals with reverse healing was quite cruel but they were just giant mutated animals.
But now, Kate realized that what worse than these giant mutated animals were these depraved humans who didn’t have any regards about other people’s lives.
*cough*
Reverse healers didn’t depend on their crystal core and energy but more on their mental energy, which was intangible. Right now, Kate could no longer focus on these giant mutated animals due to her anger and sadness.
Just because she’s a reverse healer, does it mean that she no longer have any right as a human being?
Just because she wielded this power, it meant that she’s too dangerous.
She never asked for this power.
Why does the world always seem to go against her in this matter?
Kate closed her eyes as her reverse healing worked in full power. She no longer wanted to care about such thing anymore.
They thought she’s a monster.
And they just wanted to kill her for her cores.
She just wanted to live.
If the condition for her to be able to stay alive was for her to truly become a monster, then she will take it.
All the white dots that could sense around her were madly rushing towards her body, be it humans, giant mutated animals, or anything else, she didn’t care anymore.
Only those whom she recognized would she still pay attention and protect.
“Wha…?” Mr. Yuri suddenly felt that something was wrong. In the past, when there were reverse healers who went mad on the spot and do reverse healing against humans, he only felt some tingling because they were not powerful enough to harm him.
But now, it was different.
He could clearly sense that something was disappearing from him rapidly as if being consumed forcefully.
This made him panic and Mr. Yuri quickly ran in the other direction. But he didn’t manage to go far before he tripped on the rock and fell to the ground. He looked at his hand that grew old at speed visible to the naked eyes.
His eyes were filled with horror.
He turned to look at Kate, who was still closing her eyes and screamed, “Monster! You’re truly going against all humanity! You will be chased….!”
His words stopped as he lost all strength.
The vitality inside his body was rapidly disappearing and thus, Mr. Yuri dropped on the ground.
The people who were around the area were screaming madly.
Kate’s reverse healing could affect more than 1km in diameter, thus everyone who were staying nearby were impacted.
Those who were laughing died with their mouth open, not realizing what killed them at all.
Those who realized the matter, tried to run only to fall after a few steps. They watched in despair as their lives were withered away in front of their eyes.
Those who were more powerful fought bitterly but found out that their abilities were utterly useless against it. They could only watch as their futile attempts did nothing and their lives ended.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
Countless lives were lost.
Be it the rank 7 giant mutated snake that was finally exhausted of life or the other giant mutated animals around or even the humans who were watching the show, no one was spared.
As long as they had any speck of life, they would be implicated.
Only those few familiar white dots belonged to everyone in her team would Kate spared. They were her friends, her comrades.
But perhaps, after this matter, she couldn’t even stay with them anymore.
*hiks*
Sitting on the ground, Lucy could hear the screams from these giant mutated animals and humans disappearing. She pounded the metal wall but could not break it at all as she despaired.
Her enhancement strength was completely useless in the face of this powerful metal that had been reinforced by Mr. Yuri.
She wanted to stop Kate.
But Lucy knew that it was too late.
In the face of these powerful people, she was simply a hopeless person who couldn’t do anything.
Kate slowly opened her eyes.
The world was very quiet around her. She couldn’t hear anything anymore. All the mocking, the screams, and the noise disappeared. She looked at the sky as she could feel that the vitality was surging within her body.
It was more than what she could bear.
She was reckless.
But she couldn’t stand it anymore… perhaps, she’s truly a monster like what they said she is.
