Inside the medical room, an air purifier emitted a low-frequency hum, filtering out the acrid, burnt smell left behind by the Evil Eggs.
Ah Jin, Adela, Wen Susu, Laiya, and the other females were sprawled limply on the floor.
Purplish-blue veins snaked like rotting vines beneath their deathly pale skin, and their faintly twitching fingertips resembled the spindly legs of dying insects.
Eradicating the Evil Eggs had completely drained their spiritual power. They couldn't even lift their eyelids, and their breathing was as faint as a candle flame about to flicker out.
"Hurry, put on the Holographic Helmets."
Tie Xinxian anxiously pressed the Holographic Helmets into their limp hands.
Laiya's head lolled to the side as a trickle of blood oozed from the corner of her mouth. Her unfocused gaze drifted to the ceiling. "It's no use. Don't waste your energy."
Her voice carried the rasp of someone on the verge of death.
