The three entered the altar, and Qin Luo used his special ability to make the plants there lush and strong, blocking the entire entrance to the altar.

The woman put Amo down and reached for the iron box on the altar, but was thrown aside and fell to the ground.

Amo, terrified, ran to her crying to help her up. The woman spat out the blood from her mouth and tried to comfort him.

"Don't cry, Amo, Mother is alright!"

He immediately got up and went to get the iron box again, but Qin Luo stopped him.

"You rest for a bit, I'll go give it a try!"

The moment she touched the metal box, she felt a powerful surge of resentment bearing down on her.

She wanted to devour her bit by bit, but luckily the woman was quick-witted and pulled her away, using her ice-type supernatural ability to freeze the iron box!

Qin Luo frowned as she looked at the iron box.

"What's going on? How can there be such resentment!"

The woman sighed in despair.

"Let's find a place to sit down first, and I'll tell you slowly!"

Qin Luo nodded and followed the woman toward the stone bed.

Amo obediently followed behind the two women to the stone bed, where the woman picked him up.

"Amo, go to sleep if you're tired! Mother will hold you!"

At that moment, Amo felt incredibly happy. He leaned against the woman's chest and fell asleep almost immediately.

Qin Luo watched him nestled in the woman's arms, occasionally trembling.

She took off her coat and covered Amo with it.

"He's asleep, you can talk now!"

The woman gave Qin Luo a grateful look before she began to tell her story.

"My name is Mu Ran, and I am a superhuman in the late post-apocalyptic world!"

"Later, you also fell into a black hole and ended up here?"

Mu Ran looked at Qin Luo with a "you too" expression.

Qin Luo quickly waved his hand.

"I transmigrated here during the early days of the apocalypse, but my friend is the same as you; her name is Fan Xing!"

Mu Ran nodded

"By then, we were all scattered, and most of our bases and shelters had been destroyed. I was accidentally pushed into the black hole by the raiders. When I first arrived here, I was overjoyed, thinking I was the darling of this world!"

Qin Luo saw the excitement she had felt when she first arrived in her eyes.

"At that time, I thought I wanted to be a chivalrous woman who lived life to the fullest, enjoying the beauty of this world!"

After she finished expressing her thoughts, her eyes became somewhat sad again.

"Unfortunately, I met a man and forgot my original intention, which caused me to become neither human nor ghost. Even my crystal core is almost completely devoured by the wizard!"

"nibbling away at the crystal core?"

Qin Luo asked incredulously.

"Was that beetle in your head planted by a wizard?"

Mu Ran closed her eyes before saying, "It was my husband, Wu Zhe, who put insect eggs in the water I was drinking!"

Qin Luo felt nauseous upon hearing this.

"He's the wizard's son?"

Mu Ran nodded in confirmation.

"Yes, his mother was the high priestess of the witch clan. When I was traveling around the Laiyi Kingdom, I was suddenly sucked into the altar. The first person I met there was Wu Zhe. At that time, he had sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, and was always willing to help others..."

Qin Luo suddenly regretted not glancing at Amo's father when she knocked him unconscious.

But seeing Mu Ran still praising the man who had kept her locked up for six or seven years...

She quipped, "Girl, you're a huge Sai fan!"

Mu Ran felt a little embarrassed by what she said.

"I haven't seen many normal men in the post-apocalyptic world. When I finally met someone I clicked with here, I fell for him instantly!"

Qin Luo is simply unbelievable

"But he harmed you! You suffered for so many years, and you've already forgotten him as soon as you escaped that sea of ​​suffering?"

"No, I'm just telling you the truth! Of course I have to tell you the facts!"

Qin Luo thought there was nothing wrong with what she said, and raised her hand to signal her to continue.

"After I got married to Wu Zhe, everything was very sweet until I became pregnant with Amo. But everything changed on the day I gave birth to Amo!"

As she spoke, her eyes filled with grievance.

Qin Luo asked anxiously, "What's wrong?"

Mu Ran sighed deeply.

"When I was giving birth, my supernatural power leaked out and almost froze the town. Wu Zhe's mother, along with all the witches in the town, activated their witch clan's magic array, which saved the people of the town from disaster!"

Qin Luo: Ah! This...this is really hard to judge! Luckily, I didn't hurt anyone!

Mu Ran ignored what she was thinking and continued talking.

"After that, they said I was abandoned by God, which is why I fell here to persecute their race!"

As she spoke, tears began to fall.

"I had no idea my ability to give birth would be leaked; I'm completely innocent!"

Qin Luo wiped away her tears.

"None of you are at fault. You were unaware of the situation, and they almost lost their lives. It can only be said that each of you has your own difficulties!"

Mu Ran quite agreed with this statement.

"Yes! I didn't blame them at the time, but later they made Wu Zhe give me insect eggs to drink, so that the insect eggs would hatch in my brain and slowly eat away at my crystal core. Then Wu Zhe's mother would perform a ritual to lure out the beetles and steal the fragments of my crystal core!"

Qin Luo was very puzzled upon hearing this.

"The beetle has already been drawn out, so how come it's still in your head?"

"Because if I don't drink water, I'll die!"

Qin Luo was so shocked that he stammered.

"She, they, they..."

Mu Ran nodded to her.

"Yes, they kept feeding me insect eggs, which kept hatching in my brain, gradually nibbling away at my core and taking it out!"

"What use would they have for the crystal cores?"

“I heard Wu Zhe say that their ancestors, like me, had abilities beyond ordinary people. They not only created this town, but also had their descendants open their brains after their deaths and offer them in holy water. After drinking the holy water, the people of the tribe would possess various divine powers!”

Based on her words, Qin Luo thought of the fast-running witch and Amo's great strength.

"Their ancestor was probably a superhuman who mutated multiple times. The witch's speed is like that of a wind-type, and Amo's is like that of a strength-type, but they are only slightly stronger than ordinary people!"

"Yes, after their people drank the holy water and discovered their differences, they began to study their ancestors' crystal cores. They used half of the crystal cores to create this altar. Anyone with supernatural abilities who passes by will inevitably be sucked in!"

Qin Luo finally understood why he had come in.

"Your husband told you they used to soak crystal cores in water to drink, and you still dared to marry him? Sister, you're really brave!"

Mu Ran blushed deeply at her words.

"I was blinded by love at the time, and the fact that his ancestors and I were from the same hometown made me feel a bit closer to him. Besides, I never expected that thing would shrink when soaked in water! It was only when it was almost gone that I thought of using mine..."

Qin Luo suddenly raised his voice upon hearing this.

"What, you don't think they didn't open your brain directly because they're nice people! Your crystal core was soaked in water, so did your brain get waterlogged too?"

“They were indeed not good people, but Wu Zhe always protected me. I heard him arguing with his mother, saying that no matter what, they were not allowed to kill me!”
