Reverse flow of the Yellow Springs

Chapter 9 Mom?

On a long table piled high with food, a naked woman with a protruding belly giggled, seemingly embarrassed by Li Yelai's sight of her nakedness.

She kept her legs together to cover her private parts.

However, the sumptuous food and the alluring naked women instilled fear in everyone.

Among them, Xinghuo, Yingliu, the Detective, and others were all in a state of stiffness.

Because the woman was gently stroking her lower abdomen with a kind expression, seemingly anticipating the little life inside.

In his other hand, he held a tender head.

That girl, who should have been like a flower bud, would never have the chance to bloom.

"Are you here to celebrate the birth of my child too?" the woman asked with a smile.

Looking at the familiar little girl, Li Yelai felt as if he had been struck by a heavy hammer.

I don't know if it was fear, anger, or guilt that rushed into my brain.

He, being the closest, acted decisively, swinging his steel axe in a perfectly circular motion, aiming to chop down on the woman's head!

The next second, the long table laden with food was cleaved in two by Li Yelai's axe. All the food and bones were scattered on the ground.

The woman appeared on the ceiling; although she was heavily pregnant, she moved with the agility of a spider.

Just as Li Yelai slashed down, he dodged the attack and jumped onto the ceiling.

"Don't hurt my child!" the woman cried out, her face contorted with rage.

Her response was met with a barrage of gunfire!
All the assault team members raised their guns and opened fire on her.

This monster!

Unexpectedly, a raid targeting a human trafficking gang turned into a siege against monsters, or rather, 'victims'.

"One team loads, two teams suppress, three teams rotate!" The officer, realizing what was happening, roared, ordering all the assault teams to move into action. They needed to ensure the continued suppression of this strange woman. As an officer who had cooperated with the Calamity Management Department many times, he had extensive experience fighting psionicists.

This is also a tactic used by the commando team to counter psionicists. While psionicists' psionic barriers can indeed defend against bullets, they also consume psionic energy.

By continuously launching attacks, you can quickly deplete its psionic energy and eventually kill the target.

But the woman reacted extremely quickly, using both her hands and feet to climb across the firing range on the ceiling in an instant.

He then pulled a scarlet longsword with several eyeballs from the ceiling. Clearly, it was a psionic weapon!
Several eyeballs were moving above, and the strange woman suddenly disappeared from everyone's sight.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, the strange woman moved quickly towards the window. Clearly, she wanted to escape the room and break free from the encirclement.

With digital processors and a strike team present, how could they possibly let her have her way?
"Listen to me! Your hands and feet are stiff!" Cheese immediately spoke, unleashing his power.

This caused the woman to suddenly stop, falling from the ceiling and crashing heavily to the floor. In that instant, she forgot about escaping and quickly clutched her stomach, seemingly worried that her child might be hurt.

At the same time, Xinghuo finally recovered from his shock. This was the first time he had ever witnessed such a bloody and bizarre scene, and his body involuntarily stiffened and trembled. He tried his best to steady his trembling left hand and lit the lighter he had been holding.

With a flick of his right hand, the flame from the lighter shot out, transforming into a fireball that caught up with the woman on the ground. The scorching flames instantly engulfed her! Amidst the flames, the woman let out a frantic scream!
This is his ability, the fire domination from the path to zero.

He can turn even the smallest spark into a raging fire that engulfs skyscrapers!

That's why he always carries a lighter. It's his most powerful weapon!
Of course, the flames wouldn't kill a victim, and the psionic barrier of a psionicist could also defend against the flames and prevent high temperatures.

But, there was no escaping suffocation!

So, the eerie woman braved the hail of bullets and charged out of the flames. But she was unexpectedly confronted by an iron hammer that appeared before her in an instant!

They are heavy cavalry!
She had been waiting outside the flames, and the moment the woman rushed out of the flames, she slammed her hammer down on her!
The eerie woman roared and brandished her sword, engaging the heavy cavalry in a series of attacks. Their weapons clashed wildly, producing a piercing sound.

This startled Li Yelai. A single hammer blow from a heavy cavalryman was enough to smash the security door, yet this strange woman caught it!

"What exactly is she? A psychic?" Li Yelai looked at the strange woman who was once again surrounded by flames and couldn't help but ask Cheese in a low voice, "Or a victim?"

"With a psionic barrier, they're obviously psionicists. Judging from their strength, speed, and physical resilience, they're psionicists on the True Martial path! As for whether they're twisted, that's hard to say." Cheese's pretty face was somewhat grim. She looked at the masked figures who had mysteriously died, and the slender skeletons scattered on the ground.

As a seasoned processor, Cheese vaguely sensed that this was some kind of ritual.

How would a human trafficker acquire this kind of knowledge?
Could it be the Church of the Embers?
Meanwhile, upon hearing the bursts of gunfire, the instructors who remained on the first floor changed their expressions.

This isn't the kind of firepower you'd use against human traffickers; this many bullets would be enough to wipe out the entire family of human traffickers.

"problem occurs!"

The instructor thought to himself, and quickly leaped into the air. He jumped more than three meters high, and then took a step in mid-air, moving again in mid-air.

This is the aerial stepping technique that uses a psionic barrier as a stepping stone.

Those psionicists who master this skill can perform double jumps and multiple jumps, giving them the ability to fight in mid-air.

Now, the instructors, disregarding their identities as psychics, want to directly support the new recruits and police officers on the thirteenth floor.

However, just as the instructors were rapidly moving to the height of the fourth or fifth floor...

His body suddenly swayed and crashed straight back to the ground. Fortunately, he managed to change his posture and land safely.

But the instructor's expression grew increasingly grim.

Because, in the corridor on the fifth floor, a man in a suit wearing a sheep skull mask, holding a cane, bowed politely and said, "Heretics, do not disturb them."

Upon seeing the suddenly appearing goat-headed man, the instructor narrowed his eyes and tensed all his muscles. He had clearly entered a combat stance.

"Heretical? You're a member of the Church of the Embers!" The instructor sneered, but a chill ran through him.

He suddenly realized that the invitation he had received might be part of a conspiracy!
The Church of the Embers is an extreme psychic force that possesses many forbidden items.

At the same time, they are also a force to be reckoned with by all the major cities. They believe that psionicists are the new humans, while ordinary people who cannot become psionicists are remnants of the old era.

Therefore, they would secretly guide talented ordinary people to become psionicists in various megacities.

This is to increase the number of psionicists.

However, this practice of killing without burying the dead brought great risks to every major city.

They used every means to lure ordinary people into becoming psychics, ignoring the risk of their transformation. This resulted in countless victims and unimaginable damage to the giant city!
Therefore, they have all been defined as cults! Once discovered, they will be killed without exception!

The appearance of the Ember Church has now made this arrest operation uncontrollable!
"You guys are really asking for it! Don't you know that nearby dispatchers are on their way? Why don't you even announce yourselves?" the instructor said coldly, daring to appear directly in front of the officials. This church member is quite confident.

"Looking for death? No, no, no." The goat-headed man replied calmly, "We have only given a mother who wants to resurrect her child a hope. I will witness her success, and you will witness the miracle of life."

"Ha! Making human experimentation sound so noble?" The instructor scoffed, casually throwing five knives that floated to the air. He then drew a longsword: "Come on!"

"Divine control path, huh? Controlling five throwing knives at the same time is great!" the ram-headed man replied languidly. "Let's kill some time then."

Meanwhile, on the other side, the eerie woman unleashed the power of her crimson longsword, once again disrupting everyone's vision. A surprise attack!
But the cheese blocked it again.

This crimson longsword has the ability to briefly disrupt vision, which is actually a very powerful disruptive ability. If your vision disappears mid-fight, how can you continue fighting?
Unfortunately, no one gave her a chance to engage in close combat.

Once Cheese senses any interference with her vision, she uses her abilities to disrupt the opponent, preventing the strange woman from successfully launching multiple attacks or breaking through.

Although the strange woman was a psionicist, she lacked any combat talent or tactical acumen. Even with her psionic weapons, she was now at her limit and in a very sorry state.

She had no chance of escaping or winning.

"Why are you hurting me?" To everyone's surprise, the strange woman screamed like a madwoman, "I'm only doing this for my child! I've sacrificed so much, why are you stopping me!"

"Hurting other people's children for your own? Is that what you call sacrifice?" Cheese sneered, his words filled with murderous intent.

"What do you know? They promised me! As long as I have those people, I can resurrect the child. So close, so close, just a little bit more!" Then, instead of running away, he charged straight at the cheese.

She realized that every time she was about to escape, it was the cheese that made her miss her chance.

She has no chance of escaping unless she finishes the cheese.

So she used her psionic powers again to distract everyone and attempt an assassination.

However, it was engulfed in flames once again.

She shielded her lower abdomen from the flames, glaring menacingly at the crowd.

His eyes were filled with anger and malice.

But no one reacted, and there was no pity shown. This was after seeing the corpses and children's remains scattered on the ground.

This woman has been sentenced to death.

She has no human rights!

This time, however, she was finally exhausted when she burst out of the flames.

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

“So close, so close.” Then, she stared blankly at Cheese: “Can I give birth to him and then die? Please, the child is innocent.”

Innocent? You know the child is innocent? The crowd sneered.

Cheese replied indifferently, "I've already checked your information. You're not pregnant. Your child died a long time ago."

She had already checked all the woman's information through the assistant on the other end of the headset. She had been going for check-ups every week since her miscarriage a few years ago, but had not been able to get pregnant again.

"No, I can feel it. He's right here. He's back," the woman whispered, clutching her lower abdomen.

“It’s fake,” Cheese said coldly. “There’s no such thing as resurrection.”

The strange woman flew into a rage, raised her long sword, but was struck on the head by a heavy cavalryman's hammer.

He collapsed to the ground, his body going limp, clutching his lower abdomen in pain.

Then he stopped breathing.

After confirming the woman's death, the officer told everyone, "I will investigate anyone she came into contact with."

Looking at the mess in the room, Cheese sighed softly, "What a pity, we couldn't save the children."

After that, I planned to leave and then go back to work at the security department.

However, at this moment.

A deep voice suddenly rang out, startling everyone.

'Mother'

Then came the sound of flesh being torn apart.

Everyone suddenly turned around.

Then they saw a huge laceration torn open in the woman's abdomen, but no blood flowed out.

As droplets of blood dripped down...
As everyone's gaze gradually shifted upwards, they saw a strange, petite figure appearing on the ceiling in the distance.

It made a strange sound, 'Mom'.

'Mother'

'Mother'

Then, he turned to look at everyone.

With just one glance, Li Yelai felt a terrifying chill spread down his spine.

It was a strange child; his skin was crimson and his eyes were pitch black.

His mouth split open, revealing a row of sharp teeth.

He held a scarlet broadsword in his right hand. In his left hand, he held the corpse of a human wearing an animal mask, which he was devouring.

As flesh and blood devoured him, his body grew rapidly, transforming him from a child into a young man.

Then, he left the body behind and looked at the crowd.

A large mouth, full of sharp teeth, opened slightly: 'Mom?'

At that moment, an overwhelming sense of fear weighed on everyone's hearts like a mountain.

Even Li Yelai's heart was pounding. This monster gave Li Yelai a sense of danger far greater than the Skinner!
Every part of my body is warning me to stay away from this monster!

But no one made the first move, for fear of suddenly startling the monster.

Until Xinghuo suddenly raised his hand, lit the lighter, and tried to release the flame!

But in the next instant, Xinghuo's raised left hand vanished into thin air, and blood continued to flow from the severed arm.

It took Xinghuo a fraction of a second to realize the pain. He knelt on the ground in agony, but dared not utter a single cry.

Because the monster was right in front of him, with his arm in its mouth, tilting its head and looking at him.

This made Xinghuo dare not make any move.

Then, the monster, carrying its arm in its mouth, walked up to the cheese.

After spitting out the arm, the bloody mouth spoke again: "Mom?"

Cheese was drenched in cold sweat. The monster's oppressive aura was terrifying. She felt she would be killed before she could even use her abilities or finish uttering her hints!

The distance is too close, and the monster is too fast!

"How frustrating! Am I going to die here?" Cheese thought to himself, silently gripping the dagger hidden in his sleeve.

At least, she can still fight to the death; she's not a newbie like Xinghuo who relies too much on her abilities.

But the chances of winning are slim... I can only hope that the others can seize the opportunity and escape...

As the monster drew closer and its mouth gradually opened wider, Cheese's heart raced, and he gripped his dagger tightly.

However, suddenly, the monster paused and turned around abruptly.

He realized that prey had intruded into his territory, so he abandoned the girl in front of him.

It stared at the newcomer with a bloodthirsty and greedy gaze.

But... he guessed wrong!

Under the gaze of those dual pupils, he... was no longer a hunter.

"Mom!" The monster smiled, expressing its joy.

Li Yelai, who had finally found an opportunity to expose Xiang Yu's true identity, smiled and said, "Are you fucking blind?"
