The scorpion eggs had already been incubated. If no accidents arose, the baby scorpions would break out of their shells shortly.

Now they had been reduced to a pile of goo, and their semi-transparent white tiny pincers and tails could be seen in the mix. Some of those body parts were even moving, even though they were in a dismembered state.

“No…” Saint Zachary touched that pile of egg goo with trembling hands, then suddenly raised his head with a murderous glint in his eyes.

He had wanted to say something, but he then saw Chris lying in a pool of blood. Next to her head from which the pool of blood spread out, there was a blood-drenched rock with sharp edges.

Saint Zachary’s countenance changed greatly. He instantly ran to Chris’s side and called out her name. “Chris…”

The man kneeling down in the pool of blood felt an unprecedented sense of helplessness, and even the hands he was reaching out to help the female up with were shaking badly. The color of blood completely drained from his face. Saint Zachary didn’t dare to touch Chris. Even his lips were deathly pale.

He opened his quivering lips. Then, as though suddenly snapping out of his trance, he finally hugged her tightly. He opened his mouth wide, but he felt like there was a formless substance stuck in his throat, making him unable to utter a sound, as though he had turned into a mute.

Bai Qingqing had long fallen into a dumbfounded state when Chris stared at her. On the contrary, the shock of the image before her right now wasn’t as impactful.

How did that happen? Why was Chris able to see her? Wasn’t it just a fragment of her memory?

All of a sudden, the image of the room crumbled. During that moment where she left, she could vaguely hear the agonizing cries of that man.

“Qingqing… Qingqing…”

In her daze, Bai Qingqing heard someone calling her name. From an illusory and dimly discernible state, that voice gradually became more and more real…

Bai Qingqing opened her eyes, and two faces appeared in front of her—Curtis and Parker were both staring at her with nervous expressions.

Bai Qingqing massaged her temples. “Head hurts so badly.”

“You’re finally awake.” Parker pulled her up together with the blanket wrapped around her and tightly held her in his arms.
