Ever since she was a child, Lauren had always been afraid of pain. The hosts were not indestructible, and they would bleed just like a normal person. Because of the pure energy in their bodies, they were more vulnerable to injury and attacks than normal people.

Ever since she was a child, Lauren would cry out loud whenever she bumped into something. The entire church would then run over to coax her.

However, in order to make this soul-returning talisman work, she had no other choice.

Fortunately, their energy was very pure. An ordinary person might need dozens of drops of blood to have an effect, but they were able to do it with just a drop of blood.

Lauren took out a needle from her pocket dimension. The needle was hung on her fingertip for a long time, but she did not dare to stab it into herself.

She could accept letting someone else do it.

But stabbing herself…

Lauren was really afraid.

She stood in front of the cage and hesitated for a long time.

She raised her head and looked at the room. The children in the cage had dull and numb eyes, which made her harden her heart.

‘Isn’t it just a drop of blood? I an do it,’ Lauren thought.

So, Lauren stuck the needle on the tip of her index finger, and a small drop of blood soon appeared on her finger.

She dripped the drop of blood on the talisman paper, and the talisman paper immediately began to glow.

Without delay, Lauren immediately stuck the talisman on the forehead of the little boy wearing Ultraman clothes.

After sticking the talisman on, the light from the talisman immediately spread to the little boy’s body.

The little boy’s entire body was now emitting a faint glow.

However, what she did not expect was that in the next second, the little boy lay down inside the cage. His face was extremely pale, and the glow from his body was also gone.

The talisman also disappeared along with the glow.

This was Lauren’s first time using this talisman. She did not know if the current situation was a success or a failure, so she could only wait.

Lauren waited for more than an hour, but the little boy still lay there motionless with his eyes closed.

Lauren was a little scared. She took a closer look and realized that the boy’s chest was still moving. Only then did she relax a little.

She suspected that something had went wrong with the soul-returning talisman, so she went back to her cage and continued to study it.

Lauren did not know how long she stayed in her own library. As she flipped through the ancient books, she suddenly heard a burst of crying.

‘It’s so noisy. How am I supposed to study with so much noise?!’ Lauren complained in her heart.

‘Wait a minute.’

‘How could there be crying here?’

Lauren’s eyes lit up. She immediately went out of the library, opened the cage and ran quickly into the room.

The soul-returning talisman really worked!

The little boy was sitting up and crying. Snot and tears were rolling down his face.

Lauren had never thought that she would like to hear him cry so much.

The little boy must have regained consciousness by now, which was why he was crying.

However, it would attract too much attention. Lauren stepped forward to comfort the little boy.

“Don’t cry, Oliver!”

Lauren remembered that the little boy’s name was Oliver Beckham.

After listening to Lauren, Oliver did not stop crying. Instead, he cried even harder. He looked really scared.

Lauren had no other choice. If Oliver continued to cry in this manner, it would be impossible to hide it if someone else came over.

Therefore, Lauren took out a small white pill from her pocket dimension and stuffed it into Oliver’s mouth. After a moment, Oliver quieted down.

Oliver still wanted to cry, but he could not make a sound.

Tears had already gathered in his eyes.

His eyes were already red and swollen from crying.

“Oliver, don’t be afraid. I’m here to rescue all of you. Now, you must listen to me and stop crying. Do you understand?”

Oliver could not cry but he could nod his head.

“Oliver, you can’t move around too much either. You have to maintain in a position.” Then, Lauren reached her little hand in and helped the little boy return to the same position as before.

“Oliver, just sit there and don’t move around. Then, lower your head and bear with it. I’ll be able to rescue you very soon.”

The little boy nodded his head.

Looking at the little boy’s sallow and emaciated face due to malnutrition, Lauren took out a meat bun from the pocket dimension.

There was no concept of time and space in the pocket dimension, so the meat bun did not turn bad. It was still as fragrant as before, and it was warm as if it had just been taken out of a pot.

“Have a meat bun.”

Lauren handed the meat bun to Oliver.

Oliver calmed down a lot after eating the bun. Seeing that Oliver had stopped crying and obediently maintained his posture, Lauren returned to her cage.

Although she knew that the soul-returning talisman was effective, Lauren did not dare to use it again.

If there were one or two more children, she would not be able to handle them.

However, she was still very happy to be able to retrieve the soul of a child..
