Chapter 225: The Explosion

Selma Payne's POV:

Dorothy solved the problem that had been bothering me within a second. She accurately found the 'heart' among the dead pine trees - an unremarkable piece of charred wood.

"This is it." She touched the dried bark and felt the flow of power. I could see that all the curses were produced from this tree. It was the source of all evil.

This was good!

I immediately tried to devour the tree, but just as New Flow wrapped it up, Dorothy suddenly said, "It ran away! He's on that tree!"

She pointed at another crooked tree not far away.

This cunning fragment could move!

New Flow followed the demonic fragment, but it was always one step behind it. The fragment was like a rat in the sewer, familiar with the escape route.

"It's expanding." Dorothy's expression was solemn. "It is trying to create more creatures that can be used for hiding. It is constantly absorbing Captain Frank's soul!"
