Chapter 810
Crystal's body was covered in a lot of ashes, and her face was covered with sweat from the high temperature. She
looked extremely disheveled. Seeing that the Ignis District was getting closer and closer, Crystal reached out to
grab Phyllis's neck and gasped heavily. "Lunatic!"
Phyllis's throat was grabbed by Crystal, but she was not afraid. Instead, she smiled and said, "Do it."
"Strangle me to death."
Crystal's pupils constricted. She exerted force into her hands, causing Phyllis's eyes to immediately turn white. Even
so, she still stared venomously at Crystal like a poisonous snake. "You... cough cough, want to kill me?! Even if you
kill me, you won't be able to escape!"
Crystal gritted her teeth and released her grip on Phyllis' neck. She turned around to try and make her way to the

had to crawl on the ground, inch by inch toward the door. Perhaps due to inhaling thick smoke, or due to the
scorching heat, Crystal felt an overwhelming sense of heaviness in her body. She struggled for a long time but only
managed to crawl a few centimeters toward the exit.
Phyllis simply lay flat on the ground. She might have had an illusion. She looked straight at the ceiling. The
temperature on the floor had also risen to a boiling temperature. She smiled slowly and said, "Give up... You can't
run away."
Perhaps someone outside had seen the black smoke coming from the laboratory and called the fire department, or
had alerted people to come and put out the fire, but it was already too late.
The laboratory was not very large, with only four people working in a small, partitioned area of less than twenty
square meters. In such a confined space, with a large amount of accelerant in the air, it would only take a few
minutes for the fire to engulf the entire area.
Crystal felt that the oxygen was getting less and less, and the gas she inhaled made her lungs very uncomfortable.
It was because her body was instinctively rejecting these toxins. Her throat was painful, and the skin that touched
the ground was painful. If it went on like this, she would die of oxygen shortage or gas poisoning, and her body
would be roasted by extremely high temperatures after death.
If Harold saw her like this, he would have been very sad. After all, if she had been roasted, she would have been
very ugly and scary.
Not long ago, Harold also said that the first thing she needed to do when she was in danger was to call him, but she
still couldn't do it.
However, Crystal felt that it was not her fault. After all, her phone had been taken away by Phyllis and thrown into
the fire. She seemed to have heard a little explosion. Her phone must have been broken.
Crystal finally lost all her strength.

The usually cold floor became hot at this time, which made people's skin red. Crystal was lying on the ground, and
her vision was blurred. She couldn't see clearly, and even breathing became an extremely extravagant thing.
Crystal slowly closed her eyes and placed her palm on her chest.
It was said that when people were on the verge of death, they would see a "life review" of their entire life. However,
Crystal did not experience this.
She just remembered that Harold came back a little late last night. She had fallen asleep in bed. After taking a
shower, the man opened the quilt and hugged her from behind. She woke up in a daze, held his neck and kissed
him gently on the chin, saying, "Good night, Harold."
But that was probably the last time she had said good night to Harold. She regretted not kissing her lover the first
time she opened her eyes this morning and then said good morning.
"I'm sorry, Harold."
A teardrop slid down from the corner of Crystal's eye and fell to the ground. Soon, it evaporated and disappeared
without a trace.
