Be Spoiled After Rebirth (Selena and Osvaldo)

Chapter 1728: Professor Turner

"Kill without mercy!" The underground city resurfaced, and if that person was truly still alive, they would surely come out. At that moment, Selena's eyes flashed with determination as she took Osvaldo's hand and said, "Let's go!"

Osvaldo immediately led Selena towards the direction of the underground city gate. Oscar cautioned them before heading in another direction.

All of the electrical grids and mechanisms had been removed, and the old dilapidated gate was finally reopened from outside. The military stood guard with weapons at the ready as Osvaldo protected Selena while they boarded a green armored vehicle.

Everyone was prepared to witness various cruel scenes after doomsday. In times of adversity, humanity would bloom countless flowers of sin.

Silence mixed with wind blew from within the city; aside from the sound of their vehicle engine, everything seemed lifeless.

This was a city shrouded in death and darkness - all that met their eyes were desolate ruins resembling monstrous beasts lurking in an oppressive atmosphere that made it hard to breathe.

The roads were barely recognizable anymore; overgrown with weeds where one could faintly see yellowed bones belonging to mostly humans scattered about. Everything appeared frozen in time.

Everyone held their breath and didn't dare to look around. Selena sat in front of the car, her gaze fixed on the spot ahead, watching as the golden sunlight slowly invaded this city that had been buried in darkness for eight long years.

After what seemed like an eternity, a voice suddenly broke the suffocating silence. "Someone's here!"

In an instant, everyone tensed up and aimed their guns at the direction of the noise.

Selena's eyes widened as she looked towards where the sound came from.

A group of people suddenly ran out from around a street corner.

Yes, it was really a group of people!

But they were all children who hadn't even reached adulthood yet!

The children desperately ran with agility while behind them came wild and savage roars that sounded like beasts.

When everyone saw what was chasing after those kids, their pupils shrank in fear.

It was also a group of humans!

All adults but with no trace of humanity in their eyes. They stared at those running children with predatory gazes like beasts eyeing prey.

Everyone who met those eyes felt chills down their spine.

Seeing that group of adults about to catch those kids, Selena made a quick decision. "Take them out!"

After thunderous explosions followed by screams and wails filled the air briefly before everything returned to calmness once again.

The group of children who had been rescued did not show any signs of joy or happiness on their faces.

As they stepped over the bodies and stared at the armored vehicle, their eyes were filled with caution and ferocity.

Those inside the vehicle could clearly see the rough bows and arrows, as well as old knives, cleavers, sickles, watermelon knives, scissors... in their hands.

Looking at these young and cold faces one by one made many people unable to control themselves and become teary-eyed.

If they were born outside this place, most of them would only be in middle school at most.

A girl with a high ponytail stood out among them. She was holding a bow and arrow despite being only eight or nine years old. There was no hint of innocence or naivety in her eyes as she stared at the armored vehicle with curiosity mixed with an unusual coldness and caution.

She didn't seem to speak often; her voice was dry when she finally spoke up. "Get off the car. Don't resist - live; resist - die!" After pausing for a moment, she added another sentence: "Lie - die!"

Selena stared into the little girl's eyes for a moment before waving her hand.

The car door opened as Osvaldo helped Selena out of it.

Behind them came soldiers from Central City's elite army unit carrying guns.

The children had all been staring at Selena until they saw soldiers coming down from vehicles behind her. Their gazes changed immediately.

They widened their eyes while staring fixedly at J-Team's green combat uniforms while looking back-and-forth between those uniforms' wearers' guns then back to their expressions like they were sensing something...Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

"Green clothes!"

"The gun is not aimed at us!"

"There was no killing intent in his eyes!"

"Are they the ones that Professor Turner talked about?" Selena quickly caught onto the mention of "Professor Turner" and spoke up. "Did Professor Turner tell you that one day a group of uncles and aunties wearing military green clothes would come with guns to rescue you?"

The children were all stunned, staring at Selena with shock.

"How did you know?!"

So Callum was really here... Selena's fingers trembled slightly as she suppressed the emotions in her chest and continued, "Did Professor Turner also tell you that he has a daughter, a very beautiful daughter..."

The children seemed frozen, their killing intent dissipating somewhat

The lead little girl stared at Selena curiously while still holding onto her bow and arrows. "Do you know Professor Tumer?!"

"My name is Selena," she smiled slightly. "I have a "dad" named Callum Tumer."

Physiologically speaking. Callum could be considered her father since she had switched bodies with Selena for fifteen years. This was probably why everyone said she looked like Calum

The little girl shook in surprise. "You know Professor Turner's name..."

Selena looked into the clear yet fierce eyes of the girl. "Do you know Eden? He's the one who brought us here to save all of you."

As soon as Selena finished speaking, someone among the children gasped in shock.

"Ah-"

"Eden!"

"He's back!"

"Yes, he's back," Selena looked at those innocent faces. "He brought us back to save you all, along with Professor Turner. Let's go out together!" Those innocent faces looked at each other in confusion, perhaps not understanding the situation fully. Their expressions were naive and happy. "Can we really go out now?"

"We can see the sun, blue sky, white clouds, friends, school and amusement park that Professor Turner talked about"

"Professor Turner said someone will come to rescue us and take us out."

The little girl in front frowned as she stared at Selena's expression with a hint of fear and something indescribable.

Was it fear of losing their beloved treasure?

Selena smirked and locked eyes with the little girl. "Take me to see Professor Tumer. He'll tell you if we're here to save you."

After staring at Selena for a while and confirming that she had no ill intentions towards them, the little girl finally spoke up. "You come with us!"

With that said, she put away her bow and arrow skillfully before climbing onto the armored vehicle swiftly.
