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

Chapter 191 When Hopes Are Placed on a Miracle

After facing off against Fan Lisheng No. 2, Liu Yi immediately felt the gap between himself and Jiang Chuan.

Fan Lisheng's strength far exceeded her expectations.

Even though she was using the range and flexibility of the whip to deal with Fan Lisheng, Fan Lisheng's strength and ability to withstand blows far exceeded her expectations.

"I should have killed you first back in the shelter!"

Fan Lisheng's voice was very slow: "Kill...me?"

He revealed an extremely sinister smile: "Then... you're already... dead..."

Liu Yi had become accustomed to the complex emotional expressions of these NPCs, which resembled those of real humans. She said no more and, facing Fan Lisheng's claws, used her whip to grab a nearby pipe and quickly dodge, using the space to maneuver around Fan Lisheng.

Liu Yi is usually very carefree and open-minded, but when facing this opponent, she couldn't be as at ease as she usually is. On one hand, if she fell, the current delicate balance would be instantly broken... On the other hand, she certainly didn't want to perish in this virtual reality.

"Aren't we going to use that green medicine?"

"..."

"Fan Lisheng from Yanjing hasn't shown up yet. Once he does..."

Although she had this idea, she did not act rashly.

Because Jiang Chuan did not allow them to use the medicine.

Liu Yi believed that Jiang Chuan must have made some plans.

She moved swiftly through the vaulted laboratory on the 19th floor, wielding the whip with unparalleled skill, making it seem as flexible as an extension of her arm.

However, Fan Lisheng followed closely behind her. Although his movements were extremely stiff, he used his iron-like body to leave deep pits in the thick metal pipes, quickly keeping up with Liu Yi's figure.

Just as Liu Yi was trying to stall for time by maneuvering around, she saw other people fighting against zombies.

The colleagues responsible for blocking the gates on the north and south sides were locked in fierce fighting, arms and heads flying everywhere, black blood flowing all over the ground...

In the very center of the circular domed laboratory, Lin Ci and Zheng Yang worked together with increasing synergy, their fists and swords clashing.

Liu Yi was surprised to find that Lin Ci's strength seemed to be almost on par with Zheng Yang's!
There are so many monsters in Qing City?

She had also witnessed Li Yi's strength.

It must be admitted that Qing City's overall strength not only surpasses that of our side, but also seems to far exceed that of Yanjing.

But Jiang Chuan's strength...

They are stronger than us!
It's not just about the ability to come up with ideas, but also about having strong personal capabilities!

So... whose awakened memories does he actually have?
Why is he able to make such an incredible pace of progress?

The growth of the Awakened Ones' strength depends on the match between a certain personality trait and the awakened memories. But which powerful person does Jiang Chuan's personality resemble?
These questions flashed through her mind, but they did not delay her entanglement with Fan Lisheng.

Although Liu Yi's whip posed no threat to her opponent, it was more than enough for her to dodge.

Although Fan Lisheng pursued her relentlessly, he was unable to inflict any real harm on Liu Yi.

At that moment, she spun around 180 degrees with the whip in her hand. The wind whistled past her ears, and the scene before her eyes flashed by. When she stopped again, the whip loosened its grip on the iron pipe and struck Fan Lisheng with a crisp "snap".

Just then, her gaze passed over the corner.

She saw Jiang Chuan fighting with Fan Lisheng.

Upon seeing this scene, Liu Yi's pupils contracted slightly.

Jiang Chuan... has firmly suppressed Fan Lisheng!

"how?"

Although Jiang Chuan couldn't break through the defense, during their rapid close-quarters combat, Jiang Chuan seemed to be able to avoid all of Fan Lisheng's attacks and kept trying to stab him in the eye with his dagger. Fan Lisheng tried to avoid Jiang Chuan's continuous attacks with his dagger, and his already stiff limbs became even more disheveled as he dodged.

"How did you do it!?"

Although she was full of confusion, a hope of escaping was born in her heart!
There are still more than fifty minutes left... I just thought that the appearance of Fan Lisheng No. 3 would completely break the balance, but now Jiang Chuan's inexplicably powerful combat strength is able to restore the balance to normal!

In that instant, her whip lashed out again toward the distant pipe.

She led Fan Lisheng No. 2's body away from the battlefield in Jiangchuan to prevent any further unforeseen events...

Because Liu Yi knew that if things continued like this, Jiang Chuan would definitely be able to kill Fan Lisheng in just a few minutes!
However, just when Liu Yi thought the situation was settled...

A flash of lightning seemed to strike her mind, and a strong sense of crisis instantly dispelled the nascent hope!
She turned around in horror and saw a figure floating in mid-air.

Outside the vaulted ceiling, a figure slowly rose into the air, merging into the sunlight outside the dome and casting a shadow in the laboratory...

Her white lab coat, stained with black blood, fluttered in the biting wind.

Although no attack has been launched against them yet, anyone can feel a strong threat!
That was an unparalleled power!

In this virtual reality, there are beings even stronger than Fan Lisheng!?

Liu Yi's expression changed continuously, but the shock from her opponent did not render her incapable of taking action.

Not only Liu Yi, but everyone noticed this extremely powerful threat.

The expressions on everyone's faces changed to varying degrees.

Tian Tian: "What's that!?"

Dong Xing'an exclaimed incredulously, "Holy crap! This thing is way too advanced!?"

As Zheng Yang and Lin Ci were cleaning up the zombies that crawled extremely fast, they quickly exchanged surprised glances, their expressions becoming extremely serious.

For a moment, even the zombies seemed to slow down, and a sense of fear seemed to have sprouted in them!
That's a suppression based on social status!

But after that brief meal, the zombies became even more frenzied!

It's unclear what kind of boost they received, but the pressure on the goalkeeping teams on both the north and south sides has increased dramatically!
After a moment of distraction, Liu Yi decisively pulled out the green potion.

She knew that she had to deal with Fan Lisheng first!

But in that brief moment of distraction, Fan Lisheng's claws were already close to her!
The sharp fingertips gleamed with a cold light, instantly filling the entire pupil.

The green injection was just taken out; there wasn't even time to inject it.

In this haste, no matter how fast Liu Yi moved, it seemed impossible for her to avoid Fan Lisheng's attack.

She was somewhat surprised, and even more so, disheartened.

She never imagined that she would die here like this...

In Liu Yi's eyes, the passage of time seemed to stand still.

At that moment, many things came to mind, appearing before her eyes almost like a revolving lantern.

But just as she was waiting in shock for death to come...

brush! !

A hole had been pierced through Fan Lisheng's head right in front of her!
Black blood gushed out from the hole, flowing down Liu Yi's face.

The cold, black blood left a black mark on her cheek, and Liu Yi's eyes widened in astonishment.

How can it be?

The time that had been frozen before her eyes resumed its course the next moment, and a black figure flew up from behind Fan Lisheng!

A sudden gust of wind, generated by the impact, blew against Liu Yi. Jiang Chuan, gripping his dagger, fiercely pinned Fan Lisheng's head to the iron pipe beside Liu Yi!
"Fortunately, I caught up."

"Are you OK."

Liu Yi nodded in surprise: "It's nothing..."

She never expected that Jiang Chuan would defeat Fan Lisheng in an instant!
But Liu Yi then saw Jiang Chuan pull the green syringe out of his leg.

And just as she was about to receive the green injection...

Jiang Chuan interrupted her, saying, "No rush."

"I'll try to kill this one."

As he spoke, he looked up at the powerful figure floating above.

Liu Yi shook her head and said seriously, "You can't do it alone."

Jiang Chuan smiled, nodded, and said, "The priority is to survive."

"I need to look for an opportunity first."

"And then..."

"53 minutes 44 seconds."

"I will call you when I need support."

Liu Yi knew that Jiang Chuan was controlling the use of consumables, so she nodded and said, "Okay."

Liu Yi wasted no time. She immediately turned around and joined Lin Ci and Zheng Yang, relieving their pressure while also ensuring that they could provide support to Jiang Chuan as quickly as possible.

Even after Liu Yi left, Jiang Chuan was still looking up at that figure.

He could already see the power of α-1 before him; he could see the massive amount of data.

His gaze grew increasingly solemn. Even now, with the same strength he possessed in the real world within the virtual reality, and with his equipment stats being adjusted to allow his dagger to transmit mental energy... the more this was done, the more clearly Jiang Chuan could perceive the intense gap between them.

"Something like this..."

Is it really possible to defeat them?

He felt the same sense of powerlessness he had felt when he encountered Princess Anle in Qingshan.

At the same time, a message from Xu Shan from the outside world also came through:

[Jiang Chuan. Even if you recover your actual strength using the green potion, you still won't be able to fight against α...]

[This is inherently invincible!]

Focus on diplomacy and avoid direct confrontation!

……

Xu Shan's face was also very pale as he typed these words.

He wouldn't give such a hint unless absolutely necessary.

But now that the facts are clear, this is all he can do.

In the planning team's office, the faces of those who had just been cheering were frozen.

Their expressions seemed even more solemn than Jiang Chuan's on the screen.

"53 minutes left... Are they... beyond saving?"

"The tech team is at a loss; they're asking us if we have any solutions..."

"What should we do now?"

"We've done all we can; now we can only place our hopes on them."

Whether these 32,000 trainees can survive... depends on Jiang Chuan and his team.

Feng Xiaobo's face was extremely pale.

As the heavy murmur of the staff gradually faded away, the once noisy office became so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

The heavy atmosphere weighed on everyone's hearts.

This disaster has gripped everyone's heart.

It was like an inevitable natural disaster, like an inescapable earthquake, like a tsunami that one could not escape in time.

Everyone outside the earthquake zone could only anxiously await the casualty reports.

Ambulances are now ready in various locations; they are prepared for the worst…

But only a sliver of hope remained in their hearts.

Look at this team composed of top elites from three organizations...

Can they work miracles?
However, Feng Xiaobo also knew the truth.

When hope is placed in a miracle...

That actually represents despair.

……

In the classroom of Class 1, Qing City, Cao Zhigang and Cao Zhiqiang were staring at Jiang Chuan, who was sitting there.

Cao Zhiqiang said, "The planning team just sent word that they will resolve the issue as soon as possible..."

Cao Zhigang snorted coldly: "As soon as possible? My students are all fucking dead!"

"What do you mean by 'as soon as possible'?!"

"Give me the phone, I want to ask again what exactly happened!"

Cao Zhiqiang shook his head: "Brother, they must be anxious too, don't make things worse."

Cao Zhigang frowned, about to lose his temper, but then took a deep breath and suppressed his fiery temper.

His eyes, hidden behind his sunglasses, were full of worry.

He wished he could rush into the virtual reality world...

But now he could only stand outside the delivery room like a husband, unable to do anything, yet feeling incredibly anxious and restless.

……

Jiang Chuan received Xu Shan's notification, but after seeing it, he sighed.

deal with?

How to handle this?

In order to conserve the green potion, he waited until α appeared before injecting the green potion.

But when she actually appeared, Jiang Chuan realized that his plans were meaningless.

That's a crushing defeat in terms of raw power.

The danger I face this time is more desperate than ever before.

But Jiang Chuan also knew that he had to stand up.

He was undoubtedly the strongest among the thirteen.

The only person who can fully unleash their potential is oneself.

In the previous exchange, Xu Shan mentioned that his helmet was specially made, originally intended to hold more information, given the number of levels he faced. This special feature, by a twist of fate, granted him a unique advantage that others couldn't handle, which also placed greater responsibility on him.

I want to get out of here alive, and I want to get these colleagues out of here alive with me...

He must create the possible from the impossible.

Jiang Chuan's mind was racing, considering every possible way to turn the tide.

Everything that happened during this month.

Everything I experienced in this virtual reality.

They searched for opportunities to turn the tide in every detail.

buzzing-

Just as Jiang Chuan was pondering...

The helicopter spiraled upwards.

It's that former captain uncle who still doesn't have a name.

He saw Zhou Ying.

Then he pulled the trigger on Zhou Ying.

Bang bang bang! !

Fire erupted from the gun barrel, accompanied by the angry roar of the former captain:

"Damn it! I shouldn't have rescued you in the first place!"

"If it weren't for you, how could the shelter have exploded!?"

"A traitorous monster!"

The sound of the propellers and guns was so loud that Jiang Chuan didn't even hear his roar.

However, such an attempt was pointless.

The bullets stopped before they reached Zhou Ying, as if they had entered an incredibly thick liquid, gradually losing all kinetic energy, and then fell to the ground.

With her back to the helicopter, Zhou Ying didn't even turn around. Facing the relentless barrage of gunfire, she simply swung her arm calmly.

brush!
With a flick of her wrist, a wind blade, almost tangible, appeared out of thin air and cleaved the helicopter in two in almost no time...

The former captain was also cut in half amidst his astonishment.

His body, along with the gun in his hand that had just been spitting fire, was neatly split in two.

The propeller was still spinning when it was completely torn apart, and the blades shot out. The wind blades seemed too sharp, and the helicopter was even delayed for two seconds before it exploded after being split in two.

boom! !

The violent explosion shattered the remaining glass of the vaulted ceiling.

The flashes of the explosion reddened Jiang Chuan's eyes, and a wave of heat swept through the entire laboratory.

At this moment, Zhou Ying slowly descended, approaching Jiang Chuan.

She was still wearing that white lab coat, her face and brows frosted with snow.

It looked like a corpse that had been hanging on the city gate for three days in the dead of winter.
