Infinite Disasters: I Hoarded My Way to Godhood novel Chapter 294

Chapter 294: Chapter 294: An Opportunity, an Explosive Suggestion

A nuclear war?!

Nuclear explosions alone were enough to destroy civilization.

But the consequences, compounded by the Aberrant Radiation, were catastrophic.

The world’s ecosystem completely collapsed.

The surviving humans and creatures, tormented and catalyzed by multiple forms of radiation, underwent unimaginable mutations.

The world devolved into an Inferno overrun by mutated monsters, where order had crumbled and humanity had sunk into depravity.

The Holy Spirit Clan and the Crypt Folk were merely microcosms of humanity’s desperate struggle to survive, fractured factions that emerged from the cataclysm.

After hearing Tex’s account, Seraphina Sullivan was silent for a long time.

The background of this instance was far heavier and darker than she had imagined.

This wasn’t just a natural disaster.

It was a man-made catastrophe, born from humanity’s own greed and arrogance.

’Just as I thought. The root cause behind these so-called ’natural disaster instances’ the system sends us into is never an irresistible force of nature. It’s always a man-made catastrophe, a result of humanity shooting itself in the foot.’

As Seraphina listened to Tex, a complex feeling of helplessness washed over her.

This drama of self-destruction, driven by greed and arrogance, seemed to play out endlessly across different worlds.

’When will humans ever truly see themselves for what they are?’ Seraphina thought with a hint of scorn.

’Researching and creating powerful weapons is understandable if it’s for defending one’s home and protecting what’s important. But to do it for the ethereal goal of ’conquering the world’... only to end up playing with fire and taking the entire civilization down with you.’

Seraphina shook her head.

Endless greed would ultimately lead to one reaping what they sowed.

This world of Aberrant Radiation, and other apocalyptic instances like it, were the most gruesome examples.

Now that she knew the world’s background and the origin and dangers of the Mutated Meteorite, Seraphina no longer hesitated.

She decided to get to work on [Side Quest 2]: eliminate the radiation source.

This world’s disaster had nothing to do with her.

Her job was to survive and gather as many supplies as possible.

But before dealing with that meteorite fragment hanging high above, Seraphina had to ensure her operation wouldn’t be interrupted.

This meant she first had to take down all the Holy Spirit Clan members outside the cave, whether they were reveling or on patrol.

Just as she was planning her next steps, the Effect of the Sweet Fragrance began to fade.

Tex groggily began to wake up.

At first, she was a bit dazed.

But soon, as one of the more intelligent members of the Crypt Folk, she keenly sensed that something was wrong with her condition.

There was a brief gap in her memory, and the sleep of the clan members around her was extremely unnatural.

Tex quickly realized someone must be nearby—and it was someone who could turn invisible.

With that thought, a glimmer of hope flashed in Tex’s eyes.

"Who? Who’s there!" she whispered, her voice low, calling out into the seemingly empty cave.

Tex’s eyes were wary, but they held more hope of finding an opportunity to escape this place.

Seraphina was a little surprised.

She hadn’t expected Tex to wake up so quickly, nor for her intuition to be so sharp.

When the other person still didn’t appear, Tex grew anxious. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦
