Chapter 295
"Dad!" A sharp object on the wall pierced Dexter’s back. The entire cabin tilted 90 degrees and became very bumpy.
"Dexter..." I gripped Xandra firmly as the cabin tilted. I was enveloped by Dexter’s embrace and unable to see anything. The scent of briny seawater mingled with the metallic aroma of blood filled my senses.
"Mom, Dad..." Xandra had an injury to her forehead too. She choked up as she attempted to assess my condition.
Dexter and I both sustained injuries of different severity. Dexter’s injuries were the most severe, with blood on his back and his clothes drenched in blood.
"I’m fine. Don’t worry," Dexter assured us with a comforting embrace.
I was terrified and held them tightly. Fear spread in the darkness. The cabin tilted, and the power was completely cut off. The sea seemed like a giant beast that could devour everything. Everyone was waiting to be rescued.
"Dexter! Sophia!"
"Sofia?"
In the darkness, we heard the voices of Zion, Joel, and others, as well as Damien’s voice. I was shocked that Damien didn’t board Genome Society’s rescue ship in advance.
I moved and realized that my leg was trapped under the bed, which had slipped down along with us earlier. The pain was so intense that I nearly lost consciousness. This was my first experience of such severe pain.
"Sophia." Dexter desperately tried to move the bed in panic. But despite his efforts, gravity made him feel helpless. After all, he was just a human being.
