Girl's Doomsday Rebirth Revenge & Survive novel Chapter 400

400 /540

**TITLE: Doomsday Rebirth**

In the desolate aftermath of the apocalypse, the devastation extended far beyond the extinction of countless animals; entire ecosystems of plants had also met their untimely demise. Yet amidst the rubble of this shattered world, a remarkable bond had formed between two extraordinary mutant plants, Handsy and Medusa. They had discovered each other in this bleak landscape, providing a flicker of companionship in a realm stripped of life.

To the average observer, this peculiar and enchanting tableau was utterly incomprehensible, a sight that defied the very laws of nature as they once knew it.

Within the confines of Building B, a man had been silently observing the two peculiar trees for what felt like an eternity. His fingers stroked his chin thoughtfully, a wild spark dancing in his eyes. “Fascinating,” he murmured to himself, a sinister grin spreading across his lips. “Those trees are coming with me.”

And just like that, he seemed to dissolve into thin air, as if he had been summoned by some unseen force, only to reappear on the rooftop of Building A in an instant.

Meanwhile, Caroline and Tyler made their way to check on Denton, their expressions heavy with concern.

Denton was already ensconced in his isolation chamber, encased in protective gear that seemed to amplify his sense of boredom. He sat there, fidgeting, wishing for a distraction, any distraction. The Elephant Brand back scratcher lay beside him—a small but invaluable tool that prevented him from clawing at his own skin until it bled.

Caroline, still worried about his well-being, reached into her bag and retrieved a cup of warm water. She carefully mixed in a few drops of healing spring water, the shimmering liquid promising a hint of restoration. “Here, Denton,” she said softly, handing him the cup. “Drink this. It should help a bit.”

Lately, the thought had crossed her mind more than once to share the healing spring water with not just Denton but also with Tyler, Snow, Silver, and even Handsy, in hopes of boosting their health. But above all, her heart ached for Nelson. His unique ability had become a double-edged sword, preventing him from regaining his stamina.

Yet, Caroline couldn’t shake the memory of her first encounter with the healing spring water. She had indulged in too much of it and had fainted for what felt like an eternity. Caution was paramount; she resolved to wait for a safer moment before allowing anyone to take a larger dose.

For now, she settled for the warm water with just a drop or two of the healing essence. It may not have been a miracle cure, but it was a step in the right direction without the risk of harm.

Denton gulped down the mixture in one swift motion. A look of relief washed over his face as he exhaled, claiming he felt significantly more invigorated after drinking it.

Even though Denton was shielded in his protective gear, Caroline and Tyler donned their own suits, maintaining a safe distance from him. They lingered outside the lab, their minds racing with thoughts of what lay ahead.

From within the confines of the lab, they could hear Nelson’s jubilant laughter echoing, juxtaposed with the desperate cries and pleas of the men. A chilling uncertainty hung in the air, leaving them to wonder what was truly unfolding behind those closed doors.

Suddenly, a knock reverberated through the hallway leading to the 64th floor. Caroline approached the door, her curiosity piqued, only to be taken aback by the sight of Alger standing there, his forehead glistening with beads of sweat.

“I haven’t caught the disease yet, but I came to deliver urgent news,” he panted, urgency lacing his voice. “Caroline, there’s a plague sweeping through our shelter! One-third of the people are sick…”
