Survival for all, my island is the last pure land on earth.

Number 2775 reached out and grabbed Jin Xiaoman, saying, "Be careful."

Jin Xiaoman gripped the prop he had placed in her hand tightly and nodded, "I will."

The girl who loves wearing princess dresses hurriedly stood up: "Sister, I'm right here beside you, you can talk to me."

Mary observed their reactions and chuckled, "I'm not going to eat anyone, why are you all so tense?"

She pointed to the girl who loved wearing princess dresses: "Among the three of you, you probably have the least say."

He then pointed to number 2775: "He's rigid and inflexible."

Finally, pointing at Jin Xiaoman, he said, "Aren't you coming over here?"

Jin Xiaoman leaped down and, under the tense gaze of everyone, walked step by step toward Mary.

When the two were still three meters apart, a strong suction force caused Jin Xiaoman to become dizzy.

When she woke up, she found herself in a completely unfamiliar world.

Here, the sky is as clear and bright as the blue planet Earth, with large, fluffy clouds and grasslands stretching into the distance.

The grass was fresh and lush, and the light green waves rippled with the breeze.

Scattered in the distance are some low houses, where children chase and play freely, and adults chat and work, their faces full of relaxation and peace.

Someone turned around and waved excitedly at Jin Xiaoman: "Mary, come quick! We caught a lot of grasshoppers, and we're about to have a race to see who can jump the fastest."

Jin Xiaoman turned around, but there was no one behind her.

The little girl affectionately linked her arm with Jin Xiaoman's: "What are you looking at? Are you afraid your parents won't approve?"

Jin Xiaoman shook her head: "No, I..."

"Don't worry, Sister Limo has already talked to the adults, we have an hour to play."

Without saying a word, she pulled Jin Xiaoman and squeezed into the group of children: "Make way, make way, let little Mary guess first."

As the little girl finished speaking, everyone moved aside, except for one little boy who pouted, looking unhappy: "Why, just because she's not healthy?"

The girl raised her hand and slapped the boy's back twice: "If you don't behave, I'll feed you mud when we get back."

"Big sister..."

The girl raised her hand again, angrily shouting, "Evellock!"

Evillock said dejectedly, "Fine, fine, let her choose first."

Limo covered her mouth and chuckled: "Little Mary, look at you, every time you come you can accurately pick the fastest one to run away, it makes Evillock so sad."

Evilock blushed, stubbornly insisting, "I didn't."

Jin Xiaoman's hand reached out uncontrollably to a grasshopper and handed it to Evillock.

Evilock hesitated for a moment, then awkwardly reached out to take it, saying softly, "I'm sorry, thank you."

Jin Xiaoman: "It's okay."

She sorted the grasshoppers one by one, holding the last one in her hand.

The children stood in front of a crooked horizontal line drawn with their feet and put down grasshoppers.

"3"

"2"

"1"

The grasshoppers were released and hopped and skipped away into the distance.

Evillock stared intently at the grasshopper Mary had chosen for him, beads of sweat involuntarily trickling from his nose and sliding down his cheek.

Mary's intuition and luck were truly remarkable; the first grasshopper she picked was always the fastest, leaving the others more than three meters behind.

"Hurry up," he kept urging, "Faster, only ten meters left."

"Eight meters."

"Go, Evillock! This is the best chance you've ever had to win in your two-year Grasshopper career."

Five meters.

"Three meters."

Limo stood at the finish line: "Oh dear, it looks like our Evillock is going to win."

Evillock was a little excited, but didn't want to be too smug, so he straightened up and said casually, "We're not at the finish line yet."

Then silently repeat in your mind, "Two meters left, one meter."

"boom--"

A loud bang came from afar, carrying a towering red light and lingering power, which blew the entire lawn, along with the children on it, flying into the air.

The little grasshoppers instantly turned into gas and disappeared into the world.

It hurts so much, my whole body aches!

These should be ribs; the arm and leg bones are all broken.

Jin Xiaoman lay in the darkness, looking up. She could barely move her right hand and groped around. Just as she was about to push away a wooden board pressing down on her head, it was pressed down again with great force.

Then came a sobbing voice: "Sir, please, spare us! We really don't know anything!"

Sfilo's voice echoed from afar: "I already issued a proclamation through the Cosmic Court: anyone who takes in, shelters, or provides relief to the people of Knowles without authorization will be annihilated. Do you dare say you didn't know that?"

The crying stopped abruptly, and a long silence fell outside, so long that Jin Xiaoman thought she had escaped Mary's illusion.

Footsteps came from outside, and then the wooden board above her head was lifted, revealing Sfilo's beautiful face: "So there was a little mouse hiding here."

She reached out and pulled Jin Xiaoman out of the gap, then casually tossed her into the crowd.

With that fall, Jin Xiaoman was absolutely certain that her injuries had worsened, because she was about to faint from the pain.

She stubbornly turned around, gave Sfilo a thumbs-up at his back, and then flipped it downwards.

Another child was thrown over, and Jin Xiaoman instinctively reached out her right hand to stop it, preventing the child's head from hitting the rock.

Sfilo walked around the area with interest: "You're Ms. Flayn's child, that sickly little one?"

Jin Xiaoman: "Yes, Your Majesty, my name is Mary."

Sfilo's gaze was ambiguous as he scanned Jin Xiaoman from head to toe: "Child, do you want to see your mother?"

"think."

"Let's go then."

Jin Xiaoman felt as if her heart was being tightly gripped by something, making it impossible for her to breathe.

Six-year-old Mary may not have realized what had happened to her mother, but she knew that Ms. Frain must be dead. Mary was being taken there and would only see images that would haunt her for the rest of her life.

Unfortunately, she couldn't stop it; she could only passively let Mary take her on a journey through her childhood.

A small hand grabbed Jin Xiaoman: "Mary, don't go."

Jin Xiaoman turned around, and Evellock said weakly, "Mary, Aunt Flayn is dead. She killed her..."

Sfilo grabbed Evillock by the neck, and in the blink of an eye, Evillock turned into a wisp of smoke.

"No!!"

Jin Xiaoman heard Mary crying sadly, but she couldn't even hug her friend.

She struggled to break free from Sfilo's control, but was still brought before her mother.

The woman, who had been abused beyond recognition, was still alive, hanging upside down from a tree.

In the distance, someone drew a beautiful full-moon bowstring and shot an arrow straight through the heart.

Sfilo leaned down: "Isn't your sister good? She even let you see Mom one last time."

In an instant, all around became completely silent.
