Dazed and lost in thought, she felt a subtle, unusual presence approaching her—she was Wind's Sister, Yun.
Yun had been lonely since childhood. Her parents, including her only sister, Wind, and her childhood companions, never understood why she always wore a frown and seemed so unhappy.
The first time she foresaw a series of terrifying events within her abilities, she was tormented by the inability to prevent them, bearing a pain that was hard for others to comprehend.
At a young age, she would wake in the middle of the night and stand at her parents' bedside. What she saw was not the peaceful slumber of her parents but a horrifying scene from an unknown time—they had died from radiation Dust, their hair gone, a massive tumor growing on their necks.
Radiation Dust seeped into their home through the cracks of closed doors when the sky turned gray and the atmosphere became severely polluted by Nuclear Radiation. A vast amount of radiation Dust would invade their fragile lives and bodies without any awareness or means of defense.
Unfortunately, when Yun witnessed this scene, she screamed in terror, her cries waking her parents. They did not believe her account; they thought it was just a child's delusion that needed treatment. Thus, the couple was at a loss, wanting to cure what they believed was their daughter's illness.
They referred to her condition as a nervous delusion caused by mental stress—they were too afraid to speak of it to others, fearing that people would label her as insane and send her to a mental institution where everything would be ruined for her.
As she grew older, Yun's precognitive abilities intensified, and the frequency of her visions increased. She often sat alone in unnoticed corners, watching ants scurry about as they forged their territories or gazing at a green vine rapidly extending and sprouting tender buds.
Everything she saw at that moment was so beautiful; yet she knew that years later, this place would become scorched earth. The city would tilt and be engulfed in dust, turning into a vast wasteland devoid of life.
Tears silently slipped from her eyes as she thought of Wind—her beloved sister who playfully teased her but also cared deeply for her. Time and again, Wind noticed Yun crying inexplicably.
Wind told their parents that they should take Yun for an eye examination since she was always tearing up.
The examination revealed that there was nothing wrong with Yun's eyes.
Yun awoke once more from a nightmare—one night after the Nuclear War when she had lost her parents and returned to District A5 with her sister. She foresaw being chased by a group of strange humans who were bloodthirsty.
In horror, she discovered that her legs were covered in blood and felt utterly weak—she covered her ears and let out an ear-piercing scream that startled Wind into thinking there had been an earthquake or that intruders were trying to harm her sister.
Wind rushed in from another room in panic, stunned by the sight before her.
Yun appeared lost and helpless, hunched over with spasms and sweat pouring down as she struggled! She cried out, "My legs..."
"Your legs?" Wind exclaimed as she rushed forward to tightly embrace her trembling sister. Misunderstanding the situation as another episode of what their parents had diagnosed as Yun's mental delusion, she hurriedly comforted her softly, "It's okay; your legs are right there with you."
"Are you there?" Yun murmured, her gaze drifting to her long legs as a crystal tear silently slid down, rolling quickly across her flawless cheek.
"Ah, look, everything is fine. Please don't cry," her sister said, embodying a motherly tenderness as she tried every possible way to comfort her.
With tear-filled eyes, Yun looked up, sobbing, but another scene appeared before her. Her sister's face—she was pressing her mouth tightly shut, struggling to keep herself from crying out loud. Tears swirled in her eyes as her sister's face slowly began to decay, with something writhing in the rotting parts.
"What did you see?" A strong sense of unease began to brew deep within Feng as she noticed the terror on her sister's face. Her heart tightened inexplicably, and she instinctively hugged Yun, shaking her as she asked.
"Sister, can we leave this place?"
"What's wrong with this place? It's perfectly fine," Feng replied, puzzled by her sister's reaction. Why couldn't they just live happily? Why did Yun always have to cry? Perhaps it was loneliness! "Alright, little sister, next week Ronnie is taking me to Skull Island for karaoke. I'll take you along."
"No... I don't want to go..." Yun screamed in fear, stepping back and turning to run away from her sister.
Feng felt confused and sensed that something was about to happen between them. She remembered that before the Nuclear War, Yun would often stand eerily at the window late at night, staring blankly into the dark night and crying until dawn.
It was the same situation when she stood at their parents' bedside in the middle of the night, letting out a sharp scream. Later, their parents died from radiation dust, but the sisters miraculously survived.
The excitement Feng had felt moments ago was instantly replaced by an inexplicable fear...
A tremor jolted Feng awake... She smiled bitterly and muttered to herself, "I dreamt of my sister."
"Oh, how is she?" Xiao Qiang knew that blood relations were strange; there was something called a spiritual connection. The sisters must possess this feeling.
"Not good; she's crying."
"Why?"
"She foresees something terrible."
With a screech, the car suddenly stopped. Feng didn't understand why Wildfire had halted so abruptly. Sleepily leaning forward to see what was ahead, she casually asked, "What's wrong?"—and then she saw a woman standing at the end of the wide straight street several dozen meters away. She looked cool and arrogant, facing away from them.
Is she an enemy? A friend? Unknown! However, in Xiao Qiang's view, visitors were not kind; those who meant well did not come!
"Is it an Abnormal Humanoid?" Feng wanted to get out, but Xiao Qiang stopped her.
"It shouldn't be."
"Then who is it?"
"I don't know. You stay in the car; I'll go take a look." With that, Xiao Qiang calmly got out of the car, closed the door, and strode forward.
"Wait, don't!" Feng shouted, suddenly feeling an ominous sensation as she watched Wildfire's departing figure.
Xiao Qiang's gaze almost froze on the woman blocking their path. She appeared unarmed, standing tall with a curvaceous figure. However, there was an overwhelming aura of killing intent surrounding her! He sensed it even from a hundred steps away; it seemed they were facing yet another formidable opponent.
He ignored the worried glances from behind—fully aware that he needed to get Feng out quickly before the dimming light of the overcast sky turned into chaos. Otherwise, an Abnormal Humanoid riot could lead to a terrifying repeat of the bloodthirsty events they had encountered when entering Zone A5.
Feng was reluctant to leave Xiao Qiang and insisted on following closely, but she was also worried about her sister.
He wanted to check on her sister, reaching an unspoken agreement in his mind. He had a strange suspicion: why had her sister been able to successfully destroy the invasion of the Abnormal Humanoid virus? If he wasn't mistaken, her sister was the antidote! At that moment, they faced a blocking tiger in front and pursuing wolves behind. If they didn't leave the city within their self-imposed time limit, the consequences would be dire.
