Book 5: Chapter 205: Sorrowful Cry (1)
When the heart stopped beating, blood naturally ceased to circulate. Despite Lilith’s strong physique allowing her to retain consciousness and move even in a state of cardiac arrest, her body became increasingly limp and weak due to loss of energy supply.
“But why… isn’t my recovery power working?”
More than half a minute had passed, and instead of rushing to defeat Lilith, Three seemed to be enjoying her plight, like a cat toying with a dying mouse.
Despite the time elapsed, Lilith’s heart showed no signs of recovery. Instead, she began to experience a mounting sense of suffocation as each moment ticked by.
Every cell in her body seemed to cry out in hunger.
“Could it be that…”
A sudden realization struck Lilith.
In that case…
With a surge of desperation, Lilith drew on her remaining strength and stabbed her chest with her own hand. Blood splattered everywhere, and the pain was excruciating.
