Infinite Disasters: I Hoarded My Way to Godhood novel Chapter 324

Chapter 324: Chapter 324: Foresight Talent, the Extreme Cold Is About to Pass

Seraphina Sullivan’s treatment had only delayed the process of Leo Ross’s death.

It couldn’t cure this terminal illness that stemmed from life itself.

This left Seraphina Sullivan with a profound sense of powerlessness.

Seraphina Sullivan withdrew her hand, and the blossoms of her [Flower Therapy] slowly dissipated.

Watching the family of five before her, their expressions shifting from despair to hope and now wavering on the edge of it once more, Seraphina recognized a clear boundary to her Ability for the first time.

In this apocalypse, she could stitch up torn wounds, perform Purification on toxins, counteract radiation, and even exert a degree of Mind Control.

But it seemed she couldn’t yet touch the root cause of a true illness like this.

Still, Seraphina Sullivan spoke.

"My treatment has only made him feel a bit more comfortable. It can’t cure his illness."

Seraphina Sullivan’s words were like a basin of ice water.

The joyful atmosphere froze in an instant, replaced by a heavy, deathly silence.

Michelle Morgan covered her mouth as tears rolled down her face in silence.

The light in the eyes of the twin young men, River Ross and Hayden Ross, dimmed, and they clenched their fists until their knuckles turned white.

Mrs. Morgan swayed, seeming to age several years in an instant.

"COUGH... Miss Sullivan is right..." Lying in bed, Leo Ross was ironically the calmest of them all. He spoke weakly, breaking the suffocating silence.

"This illness of mine... Before the apocalypse, the doctors said... I didn’t have much time left. It’s me... I’m the one who’s been dragging this family down.

"I wanted to give up a long time ago, but they... they just wouldn’t let me."

His gaze swept over his mother, wife, and sons, filled with guilt and reluctance to leave them.

"Don’t say that, Leo!"

"Dad!"

"Son!"

His family immediately choked back sobs as they refuted him.

Leo Ross managed a faint smile and looked at Seraphina Sullivan. "Still, thank you, Miss Sullivan. I’m sorry to have troubled you and made you come all this way for nothing. I do feel... a lot more comfortable."

"Don’t mention it," Seraphina Sullivan said, shaking her head, her tone frank.

"I also wanted to see the limits of my own Ability. At least for now, it seems my method only treats the symptoms of this kind of deep-rooted cancer, not the cause."

Just then, the curtain flap of the shack was lifted again, and a tall figure stooped to enter.

It was Justin Brooks.

He was clearly taken aback to see Seraphina Sullivan there.

"Comrade Sullivan? What are you doing here?"

Justin Brooks was very surprised.

Seraphina Sullivan was also surprised, not expecting to run into Justin Brooks at Leo Ross’s home.

’Suddenly, Seraphina Sullivan remembered that Leo Ross had the [Shooting] Professional Skill. Could he have been a soldier?’

Justin Brooks then noticed Leo Ross in bed and the sorrowful atmosphere around him.

Connecting that with Seraphina Sullivan’s healing Ability, he immediately understood most of the situation.

He looked at Seraphina Sullivan with a glimmer of hope in his eyes. "Comrade Sullivan, your healing Ability... can it cure Ross?"
