The memories of all humanity are awakening, except for mine.

Chapter 147 Nightmare Unleashed, Saving Soldier Jiang Chuan!
Jiang Chuan escaped the tomb passage at the fastest speed he had ever seen in his life.

When the light from the exit of the tomb passage appeared before my eyes, the anticipation of escaping and the joy of regaining hope filled my entire being.

The fact that I managed to escape from this tomb and escape from a certain death situation was truly terrifying!

Even now, walking in the sunlight again, Jiang Chuan still felt a lingering fear.

"Fortunately, the judgment was correct. Li Guo'er and those faceless people do indeed have some kind of connection."

"Otherwise, I really wouldn't have had a chance to escape..."

"Luckily, I had thought things through a lot before entering the tomb. If my mind hadn't been clear then, I probably wouldn't have been able to react at all..."

However, he knew he still couldn't let his guard down.

The chances of escape have now changed from being almost zero to around fifty percent.

He has escaped, but this matter is not over yet.

Jiang Chuan knew very well that Li Guo'er was not dead.

Although the stone statue was destroyed, and part of her remnant soul that had seeped into it vanished, she was not completely gone yet.

And that is precisely why she will definitely launch the most ferocious counterattack.

Zhong Huahua hasn't woken up yet, and we don't know if anything else might happen.

Even though the ghost realm has dissipated, we still have to be on guard.

After all, Zhong Huahua's awakened memories are Li Guo'er's, and her body could be taken over again at any time.

Regardless of the circumstances, Li Guo'er's condition must be extremely poor right now, so I need to take advantage of this opportunity to run!
"Hurry up!"

He kept urging himself to speed up, but the speed did not increase because of his inner urgency.

The forest rushed past us at breakneck speed, and the sprint made it feel like a sudden gust of wind as we traversed the mountains.

With his flow state activated, he was unleashing his full power, but it was still far from enough compared to those Class A4 and Class A3 Faceless Ones.

Jiang Chuan had only been out for less than ten minutes when the pursuers caught up with him.

"Jiangchuan!!"

A bizarre, mixed male and female voice rang out from behind Jiang Chuan.

Jiang Chuan looked back and saw the figures of several faceless beings.

The faceless figure in the very center held a piece of broken stone in his hand, and that piece of broken stone was surrounded by extremely pure spiritual energy. This spiritual energy was not only attached to the broken stone, but also extended along the faceless figure's arm and into his brain.

It actually looks like a parasite!?
"This actually works?"

Jiang Chuan was surprised and cursed inwardly.

Li Guo'er's methods are indeed numerous and bizarre.

However, Jiang Chuan could tell that her condition was very unstable...

Although it can temporarily prevent the dissipation of the spiritual body's origin, it does not mean that one can freely use the power.

Jiang Chuan was already somewhat exhausted. Although his legs hadn't slowed down, he had been pushing himself to the limit for over ten minutes, which was already taking a toll on his current physical condition.

If slowing down means getting overtaken, then we might as well conserve our energy and go for it!

Just as Jiang Chuan was about to stop and make a final, desperate attempt...

But then a deafening explosion, like a thunderclap, rang in my ears!

"Jiang Chuan!! I knew you were still alive!!"

Cao Zhigang, Cao Zhiqiang, and Fang Yi burst out of the woods!
The Ministry of War's reconnaissance planes and satellites were unable to locate Jiang Chuan's exact position, because when Princess Anle led Jiang Chuan from the woods to the tomb, they always chose to travel through shaded areas.

Although reconnaissance planes and satellites couldn't pinpoint the exact location, the mysterious area was gone after all.

When the ghostly realm disappeared, the three who were originally planning to wait for news immediately rushed into the forest, heading straight for the Tang Tomb, where they bumped into Jiang Chuan.

Jiang Chuan was naturally delighted to see the three of them appear.

But Cao Zhiqiang's voice also came through: "Which one is Princess Anle!?"

Jiang Chuan roared, "That rock!!"

Stone?

Cao Zhiqiang was taken aback when he heard Jiang Chuan's words.

Fang Yi's voice followed: "There! In the middle one's hands!"

"The one from Group Seven!"

Cao Zhiqiang and Cao Zhigang also immediately noticed the presence of the stone.

At the same time, Jiang Chuan's voice came through: "Princess Anle can't use her full strength right now! Just break the stone!"

Upon hearing this, the tense expressions on the faces of the Cao brothers and Fang Yi immediately relaxed.

Cao Zhigang burst into laughter: "Well done, Jiang Chuan!"

"You run first! We'll stop as many as we can!"

As Cao Zhigang spoke, he disregarded everything else and charged straight at the faceless ones!
He shouted out loud:

"Stop right there!!"

Jiang Chuan had originally decided to fight to the death, but the arrival of reinforcements made him choose to continue his escape.

When Jiang Chuan destroyed the stone statue, at least fifteen Faceless Men were out of commission. At this time, Teacher Cao Zhigang and Fang Yi helped him stop four Faceless Men, but the number of Faceless Men chasing him did not seem to decrease.

"Peng!!"

Just then, an incredibly deafening roar came from the mountains!
A beam of blue light ripped through the midday sky!
A head exploded!

Jiang Chuan looked in astonishment toward the direction from which the gunshots came, his heart filled with surprise.

"It's Yue Wen!?"

He's been discharged from the hospital!?

Just as Jiang Chuan was thinking this, another gunshot rang out!
"Peng!!!"

The gunshot rang out further, and yet another head exploded!

"It's a sniper from the Ministry of War!?"

"Blue electric light...is that some kind of new device?"

An electromagnetic cannon? Or some kind of equipment that counters mental power?
Jiang Chuan didn't have time to think and continued running towards the command center.

Cao Zhigang and his group did stop four Faceless Men, but the one possessed by Li Guo'er was not among them.

The faceless man, wearing a field team uniform with the number "Seven" embroidered on his chest, still held the stone in his hand and followed behind Jiang Chuan.

His strength was clearly a level above the other Faceless Ones, probably at least at the third rank of Class A, because he caught up the fastest, while the other Faceless Ones seemed to be following and cooperating.

"Jiangchuan! Jiangchuan!!"

The eerie, mixed sounds kept coming from behind.

At this point, Princess Anle had completely gone mad.

Jiang Chuan destroyed her most precious stone statue, thwarting her dream of achieving immortality!
Everything that he had carefully planned and meticulously orchestrated was completely shattered because of him!
Not to mention his frequent outrageous remarks, such as saying he'd choose to be reincarnated as a cat or dog!?
At this moment, Li Guo'er no longer cared whether her plan succeeded or not; she now had only one goal!
That means we must kill Jiang Chuan at all costs!
……

Inside the command center, in command vehicle number one.

Xu Chenggong was pacing anxiously in the car.

Just then, Chen Xingyang's excited voice rang out: "Cao Zhigang and the others have found Jiangchuan!"

"He's heading towards the command center!"

Xu Chenggong stopped in his tracks, his expression incredibly complex: "He's still alive?!"

"Has the rescue team set off yet!?"

Chen Xingyang nodded: "We're off. The Ministry of War's helicopter just returned, and it'll be taking the rescue team there."

After saying this, a hint of hesitation crossed his face, but he still spoke again:
"Cao Zhigang and his team sent word that Princess Anle is currently being held captive by a member of the controlled Field Team 7..."

"It's a stone..."

Wang Zhi was stunned: "A stone?"

Chen Xingyang nodded: "Um... Stone."

At this moment, Cui Chang pushed open the door and walked into the command vehicle, saying, "Jiang Chuan's whereabouts have been discovered!"

They soon saw a less clear, overhead view of Jiang Chuan running at an extremely high speed.

Behind him, there were six people chasing him in the footage alone, and they were moving extremely fast, getting closer and closer to Jiang Chuan.

Wang Zhi stopped dwelling on the stone and simply frowned, asking, "How much longer do we have for the rescue team?"

Chen Xingyang glanced at the timer next to him and said heavily, "There are at least five minutes left."

Sniper bullets can certainly threaten these Faceless Men, but they must hit their target.

Once these faceless beings are on guard, it becomes much harder to kill them.

Even though it slowed them down a bit, it was still a drop in the ocean when it came to the mission of rescuing Soldier Jiang Chuan.

At this moment, many people are concerned for Jiang Chuan's safety. When they first heard the news that Jiang Chuan could not be found, many people thought that Jiang Chuan was surely dead.

But when the eerie realm suddenly vanished, it gave people hope once again.

The signal that Cao Zhigang and his team had just relayed back to the command center shocked everyone!
Jiang Chuan actually survived!?
And they escaped from a tomb!?
What exactly did he go through?!

Many questions lingered in their minds, but no one asked any questions at this moment, because although Jiang Chuan had reappeared in everyone's sight, he was not truly out of danger.

Wu Qingqing clenched her hands silently as she stood in the command vehicle, looking at the blurry video feed in front of her, praying that Jiang Chuan would return safely.

Not only her, but Chen Xingyang, Xu Chenggong, Wang Zhi and others all shared the same idea.

But... it will take another five minutes for the rescue team to arrive, at Jiang Chuan's current speed...

He couldn't even last five minutes, not even half a minute!

……

Jiang Chuan could now hear the sound of wind coming from behind him.

"Oh shit."

At this moment, taking Zhong Huahua with him to escape certainly shortened his burst time to some extent, but it was only a difference of thirty seconds to forty seconds. Moreover, his speed had not decreased, and he was already being caught up.

Furthermore, he couldn't possibly abandon Zhong Huahua. If Anle were to control Zhong Huahua... wouldn't she be able to transfer her soul and be reborn? In that case, everyone who dared to venture into this forest would probably die!

Even though Li Guo'er has been weakened to an unparalleled level, with her strength, dealing with Cao Zhigang and his brothers, whose highest level is only Class A 4, would still be too easy.

"You old hag, stop chasing me!"

"I like young people!"

"I dislike men even more!"

"You fucking wanted to be a man?! The one you're in right now is perfectly fine!"

Jiang Chuan ran and cursed as he went, as if he wasn't the one being chased.

But for Jiang Chuan, he had already done his best...

Even if she catches up with him now, there's nothing he can do.

Seeing her so angry that she was practically fuming made me feel a little better.

"You think you can sit on the dragon throne just because you're a man? You and your mother are both useless!"

"It's clearly a matter of not putting in the effort, but they insist on finding objective reasons!"

"So what if you're a man!?"

"Li Longji can still kill you and your mother, and nobody can escape!"

"In the end, he'll still be infamous in history books! The only thing worth praising is that he's somewhat good-looking, but what good is that!"

"Look at yourself now! Listen to your voice now, Li Guo'er!"

"What a disgraceful sight! If I were you, I would have jumped into the river long ago!"

As a substitute player, Jiang Chuan naturally doesn't actively participate in interactions on a regular basis, but that doesn't mean his writing skills are inferior to anyone else's.

He doesn't carry the other person's family tree, but he is extremely good at striking at their sore spots and delivering a blow to their very soul!
His words had undoubtedly stung Li Guo'er, as they were her most vulnerable point.

"shut up!!"

"I'm going to kill you right now and tear your mouth apart!!"

But Jiang Chuan burst into laughter:
"What difference would it make if you killed me!"

"In the end, you're still a loser!"

Even if I die, the one who succeeds is still me, fucking!!

"I am the one who leaves my name behind, while you remain that infamous background figure, forever a stepping stone to be trampled underfoot!"

"A thousand years ago it was Li Longji, a thousand years later it is Jiangchuan!"

The words "loser," "backdrop," and "stepping stone" seemed to completely shatter Li Guo'er's spirit, which was already somewhat unclear, and now completely collapsed.

The halo of light swirling around the stone flickered and faded.

That extremely eerie, mixed-gender accent no longer appears.

The faceless man, whose uniform had the character "七" embroidered on his chest, was now extremely close to Jiang Chuan!

He slammed his fist down!
brush!
With a whooshing sound, Jiang Chuan's head exploded like a watermelon!

Li Guo'er breathed heavily in anger, looking at the blood on the back of her fair hand, her eyes burning with rage, finally finding some relief.

But she was immediately stunned.

Why my own hand?

She looked around blankly.

The forest is still the forest, but the faceless ones around me are gone.

She lowered her head, and Jiang Chuan's corpse was no longer at her feet.

She looked at the back of her hand again; even the blood was gone.

At that moment, a wind blew through the jungle, rustling softly.

Li Guo'er was a little confused and didn't know what was going on.

"Jiang Chuan!! What are you up to now!?"

Her clear and pleasant voice came through, but it gradually became rougher as she spoke.

She was utterly stunned. Before she could even think, she felt an intense itching and swelling in her palm.

She subconsciously raised her hand and was shocked to find that her fair hand was swelling and becoming rough.

The fingers, which were originally as smooth as jade scallions, have become bent, blackened, wrinkled, and covered with spots.

The rustling sounds coming from the woods gradually transformed into Jiang Chuan's hateful voice.

"Loser...backdrop...stepping stone..."

"Old and ugly, she'll still die at the hands of Li Longji!"

"You killed your own father, which is against human ethics! You killed the emperor, which is against the Heavenly Order!"

"They will be sent to the eighteenth level of hell, never to be reborn!"

Li Guo'er looked around, her eyes wide with genuine fear.

She dared not look at her hands again, but a bronze mirror suddenly appeared in front of her, revealing an extremely ugly face.

In the mirror, her figure was no longer so graceful; it was constantly twisting and changing, looking like an ugly worm!

She didn't even dare to speak, but her rough, unpleasant, hoarse voice automatically came out from her throat.

"There are tall trees in the south, but one cannot rest there..."

"There is a beautiful woman in Han, but she cannot be pursued..."

The awful singing nearly drove her to a breakdown.

"Jiangchuan!! Jiangchuan!!!"

No one responded to her.

Only a sound, like a demonic chant, continued to emanate from the ears:
"loser……"

"Stepping stone..."

"loser……"

"Background..."

"Loser...loser..."

……

Jiang Chuan stared at the fist that was about an inch from his nose and held his breath.

He was a little confused as to why the punch had stopped. He thought he was going to die... but the punch had stopped.

It's not just the Faceless One holding the stone.

All the other Faceless Ones chasing them stopped in their tracks, frozen in place.

"what's the situation?"

Jiangchuan was lost in thought.

Behind him, footsteps were slowly approaching.

The footsteps were somewhat faint and slow, but their approach was incredibly rapid, as if they had only just begun to sound before they were already beside them.

Jiang Chuan tried to dodge at first, but he couldn't escape at all and was scooped up from the ground by a hand.

When he finally saw the face of the person who had helped him up, he breathed a sigh of relief and exclaimed in surprise, "Brother Li?"

Li Yu nodded, breathed a sigh of relief, and said:
"Fortunately, I caught up."
