Chapter 175
The little thing latched onto Josie’s finger, drinking greedily.
ts emerald–green body flashed, turning a deep, visceral crimson in seconds..
What the hell are you doing?” Zane stared at her, his jaw dropping in shock.
Blood pact.” Josie nudged the creature back onto her shoulder and casually bandaged the cut. A sharp smirk played on her lips. From now on, I don’t have to fear any Mutant Flora.”
So? Impressed? Bet you didn’t see that coming.”
Miles away, back at the base.
une bolted upright in bed, heart racing with a sudden, unexplained agitation. She chugged water, glass after glass, but the thirst wouldn’t stop burning in her throat.
June? What’s wrong?” Sylvia rolled into the room in her wheelchair, a robe draped over her shoulders. “Are you feeling sick?”
Mom, I’m panicking!” June grabbed Sylvia’s arm, her voice cracking as she teetered on the edge of tears. “I feel like… like something ncredibly important just got ripped away from me!”
What are you talking about? Did you lose something today?” Sylvia asked, confused.
No! Ugh, you don’t get it! It’s like something that was destined to be mine, some great treasure, was just snatched away!” Suddenly, une clutched her chest. Her face went ghost–white, and she collapsed to her knees. “Arrgh!”
She gagged, and a spray of blood hit the floor.
une blacked out instantly and crumpled to the ground.
June! June!” Sylvia shrieked, her voice sharp with panic. “Arthur! Get over here! Now!”
Arthur rolled out of his room in his wheelchair. He took one look at June–her face was white as a ghost–and his heart nearly topped. “What the hell happened?”
I don’t know!” Sylvia was losing it, her hands shaking uncontrollably. “She was just talking and then–boom–she started coughing ap blood! We need to get her to the hospital!”
No!” Arthur snapped, grabbing Sylvia’s arm to stop her. “If June goes to the hospital, the secret is out. We won’t be able to hide the act that her power is gone! People will talk–they’ll ask why a Plant–type Super needs a doctor instead of just healing herself!”
What? What are we supposed to do?” Sylvia’s mind went totally blank. She was spiraling, her hands shaking. “Are we just going to it here and watch June suffer like this?”
We wait,” Arthur gritted his teeth, his voice tight. “If she isn’t awake by dawn, we’ll head to the hospital. Those places are a mess inyway. My real fear is having another Plant–type user check her out. If they realize her power is gone, we’re screwed.”
I guess we have no choice,” Sylvia said, her mind racing. “My poor June…. why does she have to suffer like this?”
While June was back there hacking up blood, Josie was practically walking on air. She was on top of the world.
Holy shit, thank you, Universe!
So this was the secret weapon hidden inside June’s Plant–type power.
knew something was off. There was no way June’s power was that basic. A Tier–3 Plant Manipulation… it literally makes you mmune to every single damn mutant plant out there!
And now? It was all mine.
Hahaha! Hell yes!

The ‘green lotus” Zane saw rising from her palm wasn’t a lotus at all. It was a Lirio blossom. It definitely looked like a green lotus, though.
