The Most Powerful Brain in the Interstellar Space

Chapter 263 Sudden Change
Jiang Hui remembered that there were over 300 participants on the leaderboard at the start of the second round of supply drops. But only three stars have passed, and now there are only over 160 participants left... The drop rate is really high.

So, is the situation too chaotic, or are people just reaching their breaking point? Jiang Hui's gaze swept over Huan Xian's personal score, lost in thought.

However, she ultimately said nothing and calmly inquired about Hillman's other situation.

Huan Xian then withdrew his gaze from what he had been pretending to look elsewhere, glancing briefly at Jiang Hui's pale face.

It can be said that Jiang Hui's feeling was actually correct. The pace of this battle was indeed swayed, and it was Huan Xian himself who swayed the pace.

To be honest, Huan Xian had little interest in the competition. He didn't want any glory or prizes; he was just participating because the school required it and he was just there to make up the numbers.

It was thanks to the extremely serious guidance of Jiang Hui and others that he gradually got into the swing of things, and his ranking improved step by step. But to say that he was extremely serious about the competition wouldn't be accurate; he was just a bit more attentive.

However, the situation changed far beyond his expectations; many things happened, and many of his thoughts were altered. Huan Xian's feelings now were vastly different from when he first entered.

He seemed to understand Jiang Hui's feelings somewhat. That desire to defeat the enemy, to win, to protect his teammates... He couldn't fully comprehend it, but he also wanted to help the other win.

This point was brought to its peak after Jiang Hui was injured again while saving him.

Jiang Hui is currently in a predicament, but her enemies remain active on the field. Huan Xian cannot afford to let this continue; he must eliminate as many obstacles as possible as soon as possible to ensure his teammates remain undefeated.

So Huan Xian started to climb the ranks like crazy.

This time he didn't hold back, taking on one opponent after another, racking up points like crazy. The leaderboard was refreshed twice afterward, and the score increase was so dramatic that people thought there was something wrong with it. Otherwise, why would Jiang Hui and Holly's scores rise so slowly, while Clarence and Huan Xian's scores kept skyrocketing?

Most of the contestants eliminated after Jiang Hui fell into a coma were taken down by Huan Xian alone, while Clarence took the remaining half, and the rest were the points earned by the others.

As for Holly... no one knows why he suddenly fell silent and watched helplessly as the number of prey stored in the arena decreased drastically, until now, to the point that he can no longer threaten Jiang Hui's first place.

These were all done by Huan Xian—

He didn't share these thoughts with anyone in the group, and no one noticed.

Clarence may have sensed something, but he didn't investigate further. Jiang Hui, however, noticed something amiss from the information after waking up, but given her condition, she didn't have the energy to delve into it, so the matter was simply dropped.

"Muscle injury, tendon displacement, inflammation and infection, high fever..." The woman with deep-set eyes and a high nose, yet with delicate features, stood on the instructor's seat with her brows furrowed. She wore a large white coat and striking red high heels, making a strong impression.

She was looking up at the girl on the screen... to observe her injuries.

“There’s still a layer between us, so it’s not clear, but judging from this, the injury is already quite serious. We need to get the person out immediately for emergency treatment.” The woman was slightly disapproving: “What happened? Weren’t you organizing an intra-school competition? How could you injure a child like this? You’re becoming increasingly reckless.” The teachers on the faculty panel looked at each other, unsure how to respond.

Yes, they don't know how the child got into this state either. These little rascals are just making a fuss over nothing... aren't they taking it way too seriously?
Of course, their reluctance to speak was largely due to the woman in front of them. This seemingly attractive medical worker was actually older than the average age of everyone present, only a few decades younger than Instructor Tan.

The other party was a very senior intermediate healer in the military. He had served on the battlefield in his early years, but later retired and chose to stay on a medium-sized planet as a way to retire.

Although the teachers present may not have worked with this senior therapist, they all knew each other as long as they had taught at the school.

Unlike Lu Jin, the head of the clinic who was just transferred to Beska Intermediate Academy, this person is a man of his word.

Despite being a medical professional, she couldn't stand seeing others get injured. Whenever an injured person went to her for treatment, even if they weren't criticized, they would still be nagged. In particular, those habitually injured "offenders" were basically afraid to go to her for treatment, for fear of being caught and given a lecture.

However, this therapist is incredibly responsible. She meticulously creates files for every wounded soldier she treats, conducts phased analyses, and follows up long-term until their recovery is confirmed. Therefore, even now, long after her discharge, many veterans still seek her treatment, and she continues to follow up with them, resulting in a heavy workload for them and preventing her from being stationed at the school permanently.

She specially arranged two special trips to visit and stay at the school during this competition, just in case of any unexpected events.

The competition had gone relatively smoothly so far, and most of the children brought in had only minor injuries. Selvie thought the school had finally learned to care for the young and had increased its protective measures, but she didn't expect this to happen right before the competition. This leg injury—it'll probably take at least a month to heal.

That silly girl doesn't even know how to cherish herself; she insists on staying on the field, foolishly fiddling with her toy guns.

Selvie wanted to go in and pull her out, then force her head down and teach her a lesson so she wouldn't dare to abuse her body again.

However, she was destined to be disappointed. The little fool on the screen had no intention of ending the story, and the little fool's teacher outside the screen didn't seem to have any intention of stopping it either. So she could only wait outside, waiting for the person to be brought out so she could be taken directly back to the infirmary for further treatment.

--------------

The persistent high fever was making Jiang Hui feel terrible. Fortunately, apart from that, her spirits were pretty good, just that she felt very lethargic.

So for the rest of the journey, she could only hunt a few enemies when the opportunity presented itself, and didn't score many points.

Of course, her teammates were all dissatisfied with her extremely stubborn behavior but couldn't stop her, so they could only turn a blind eye. They just hoped that time would pass quickly so that she could return to the field to recover from her injury in peace, otherwise who knows what other problems she might cause.

While Jiang Hui and his group were killing time in this limbo, the situation on the other side suddenly changed.

With five stars and twenty-one stars remaining in the game, Holly's R256 team's stats fluctuated again; they only had one chance to survive.

This time, however, no one knows who did it.
