Chapter 381: Impossibe choice (II)
Cain’s body couldn’t stop trembling as his mind processed what was happening.
"Apex, where is the core of the phenomenon!?"
Cain’s subconscious already knew the answer but could not accept it, so he asked the System Spirit to scan the place, hoping he was wrong.
"Ahhh, you are seeing it. The core of the phenomenon that is about to destroy the Azure State and kill millions of people is no other than that small child."
The golden humanoid inside the soul dimension could feel how Cain’s soul was in a state of complete upheaval as this one came to the realization of what he needed to do.
"No. There must be another way!"
Cain’s mind was in such disarray that he uttered those words aloud, drawing the attention of the little boy who looked in his direction. There were metal pipes embedded in his head, making it clear that the level of experimentation done on him was beyond just genetic.
Cain stared into the little boy’s eyes and could see the pain and fear in this one, as he could not stop crying.
"It hurts. I escaped. I don’t know what is happening."
The little body cried as he spoke with Cain but did not move a muscle, clearly terrified and traumatized by whatever had happened to him.
Cain clenched his fists as he heard those words, and his eyes burned with determination as he stored Slaughter. He approached the little boy, kneeling to look at this one directly into his eyes.
"It is okay. You don’t need to worry about that anymore, but you need to stop this, or a lot of people will be harmed."
