Chapter 209 The 3S Reading
Was her brain built differently?
What did these barriers mean, the ones that trapped her yet forced her to break through?
Finished
Lyra decided to run an experiment.
When she reached the final trial this time, she did not charge forward. Instead, she sat right where she was, watching hordes of grotesque insects surge toward her in a rustling, tidal wave.
Every test threw different visions and obstacles at her.
The first had been fields of corpses and squirming, revolting monsters.
The second was piles of mangled bodies, missing heads and limbs.
The third brought endless swarms of huge black bugs with hard armored shells, snapping jaws, and cold, faint glows in their eyes.
Each trial pushed human senses to their breaking point.
She knew none of it was real. Even so, when the high–pitched buzzing drew near, when she could feel them crawling across her fingers and her back, her skin crawled and broke out in goosebumps.
Lyra’s pupils shook. Her body trembled like leaves caught in autumn wind.
The thought of being slowly devoured by those bugs drained all color from her face. Terror wrapped all
around her.
She ached to jump up, scream, and shake every creature off her skin, then sprint toward the golden glowing gateway in the distance.
But she could not.
She could not come away with no psychic–power rating again.
She forced herself to stay rooted in place.
Cold bugs crept over her flesh; tiny hooked claws pricked and scraped her skin. Their buzzing hum filled her ears, mixed with soft wet crunching sounds as they bit into flesh.
The noise resembled silkworms gnawing through mulberry leaves.

Absolute terror of being consumed alive grawed at her. Lyra ground her teeth so hard she feared they would crack.
Her stomach twisted, and nausea burned at the back of her throat.
She fought it down until she could hold no longer and gagged violently.
Horror struck the second her mouth fell open. One of the bugs lunged straight for her throat.
Lyra’s mind went completely blank under the unendurable mental torment. She scrambled to her feet, swatting frantically at the horrid things covering her.
When the bugs hit the floor, they buzzed and scurried right back at her.
Wild–eyed with terror, she stumbled and crawled toward the escape gate, her legs giving out beneath her.
Outside the chamber, Yannis, Lior, and the others stared at the scanner display as numbers climbed steadily upward.
C…
B…
A…
S…
25 …
The indicator light kept flickering past 2S. The group held their breath, eyes blazing with sharp
excitement.
At last it registered.
BS!
The reading flashed for barely one single second.
Crash!

The monitor screen shattered. Thin wispy white smoke curled out from the cracks. Alarms blared shrilly and urgently; the machine had sustained critical damage.
Whoosh!

the room, searching for threats.

Yannis and the others had been staring in stunned elation at the 35 rating when the explosive crack of breaking glass jolted them.
Before they could process the broken equipment, they saw Lyra, looking as if she had just had a narrow
escape.
At that moment, she was terrified to the extreme her eyes and mouth both wide open, as if she were silently screaming.
Yannis and Lior paled and hurried toward her.
Nael, already inside the room, moved far faster. He stepped forward to examine and calm her.
Lyra was still disoriented and rejected all physical contact.
She pressed herself deep into the narrow corner, back flat against the cold wall, flailing her arms and legs to keep everyone away.
“Ms. Kaelin p>
“What just happened p>
“How could this go so wrong p>
“Dr. Merrin, what is going on p>
The discovery of a Tier–3S Guide should have been news worthy of celebration across the Federation.
Before they could send the exciting report upward, Lyra had collapsed into this panicked state. None of them knew how to handle it.
If this one–of–a–kind national treasure Guide suffered any harm, every person present would bear the weight of that blame.
Yannis and Lior wore faces full of shock and anxiety, turning to Nael for answers.
Nael had never encountered such a bizarre reaction. His usual warm, easy smile vanished. His expression turned heavy and grim.
“The mental shock from the assessment must have overwhelmed her. She is trapped in temporary psychological disorientation p>
He called out to the Sentinel guards standing outside, equally stunned. “Go to my office. Send my assistant over with a sedative injection p>
The Sentinel tore his gaze away from Lyra, nodded sharply, and sprinted off.
On his way, he ran into other security Sentinels drawn by the blaring alarms, who thought some emergency had broken out.
