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

Chapter 219 Facing a Dead End! Draining Mental Energy!

The crowd watched the approaching figure, the giant tiger slowly walking towards them from the horizon.

They gritted their teeth and struggled to their feet.

Even though they were already at their last gasp... they still had to face the risks that followed.

Sun Yuan turned his head to look at Jiang Chuan, but only saw Li Yi settling Jiang Chuan, who was leaning against him, and found that Jiang Chuan had not woken up.

"Is the consumption too high?"

"Or is it that he didn't realize the danger?"

Sun Yuan didn't know the reason, but he didn't intend to wake Jiang Chuan up.

There were 23 of them, and even though they were all weakened, dealing with five people and a crippled beast should not be a problem.

Zheng Yang leaned on his sword, seemingly using all his strength to stand up. He then pulled the sword from the ground, exchanged a glance with Zhang Beishan, and the two walked over to Sun Yuan and Shi Shan. At this moment, Meng Xing also came over.

Sun Yuan asked, "What do you mean by 'military formation'?"

Meng Xing said, "It's too late."

After the beast tide ended, the troop formation naturally dispersed. Although maintaining the troop formation didn't consume much energy, the large-scale use of the troop formation had consumed a tremendous amount of energy.

I thought we would no longer need to use large-scale troop formations, but I never expected to face this situation again.

The other party walked towards them in silence. It was clear that these people from the Gansu city agency had no intention of giving them a chance to negotiate.

Zheng Yang glanced at Jiang Chuan and said, "Aren't we going to wake him up?"

Shi Shan said, "We are content."

Zheng Yang nodded.

Although they were exhausted, dealing with these people from Gan City shouldn't be a problem. After all, they had seen the strength of this group during the preliminary rounds. Overall, it was already surprising enough that they made it to the finals. Now that they're here, they won't cause any trouble.

What's more, there are 23 of them here.

Dealing with five of them plus a crippled tiger? More than enough.

But things quickly started to go wrong.

"What...are they doing?"

As they approached, the other person took out the medicine and put it in their mouth.

As soon as the pill entered their stomachs, they could feel their skill level improving substantially.

The momentum is increasing with each step forward.

"I'll do it."

"Isn't this cheating?"

Sun Yuan's expression was unpleasant, but his tone remained as calm and collected as ever: "It seems the other party came in with a mission."

A voice came from behind them: "What do you think these guys are after?"

Everyone was taken aback when they saw that Jiang Chuan had woken up at some point, his face somewhat pale.

Before anyone could give a decent answer, Jiang Chuan continued, "I have seen this kind of drug before."

"..."

"very scary."

He remembered how Guo Wenjie had suddenly gone berserk on the highway, turning into a blue-faced, fanged monster.

After hearing Jiang Chuan's assessment that it was "terrifying," everyone's expressions became even more serious.

Jiang Chuan continued:

"Now it's confirmed that they also triggered the beast tide."

"If that weren't the case, how could the beast tide come from all directions?"

Everyone is now aware of the situation, and what they feared most is now unfolding before their eyes.

Zheng Yang had learned some things about Jiang Chuan through his teacher. He walked up to Jiang Chuan and asked in a low voice, "Was it about Guo Wenjie?"

Jiang Chuan nodded calmly.

Zheng Yang then asked, "Do we have a chance of winning?"

Jiang Chuan looked at the other person from a distance and continued, "The medication they are taking this time seems to be somewhat different."

"I imagine the side effects will be less."

"Then the improvement effect will be weaker."

"We still have a chance."

Zheng Yang nodded, her expression becoming even more serious.

Jiang Chuan said "there is a chance," but he was quite clear about what that actually meant.

Just as Zheng Yang nodded, the other party sped up.

It only takes a moment to go from strolling to running wildly.

Six plumes of dust rose up from that direction, heading straight for the group!

Shi Shan stopped chanting Amitabha, and Sun Yuan stopped wielding the Floating and Sinking sword. At this point, their spiritual reserves were no longer sufficient to unleash their full power.

However, Meng Xing, Jiang Chuan, Li Yi, Lin Ci, Chen Ming, Dong Xing'an, Zheng Yang, and others who were known for their personal systems stood in front of them.

"No matter what, survival is the top priority!"

Jiang Chuan raised his voice, his tone unusually serious:

"Support them!"

"We'll stall for time!"

After saying that, he started walking and headed straight for the Gansu team members who were rushing over.

But his target wasn't the team members; it was the giant tiger!

He emitted another jet of steam from his waist, like a rocket that had just been launched, breaking away from everyone around him and charging ahead!
"Roar!"

The giant tiger let out a deafening roar.

The roar seemed to carry a mental impact, and everyone except Jiang Chuan was affected to varying degrees. Meng Xing, whose mental energy was being severely depleted, had to stop and hold his breath to defend himself.

Jiang Chuan had already clashed head-on with the five people and one beast!
"when!"

One of them brandished his sword and charged forward, stopping Jiang Chuan's attempt to kill the giant tiger outright. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Jiang Chuan's mental energy had already locked onto the five opponents.

All five men carried long swords and wore identical black coats. Even their ashen faces seemed to look the same, which must be the effect of the drug.

Jiang Chuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief after feeling the impact of that exchange.

The strength is not high.

Compared to Guo Wenjie, who was practically invincible on the highway that day, he was worlds apart.

Why wasn't the maximum dosage of medication used?

"Can't their bodies handle it?"

Jiang Chuan made a quick assessment and then engaged the person in front of him in battle.

The opponent moved a fraction faster than Jiang Chuan, and those sinister gray eyes were now fixed on Jiang Chuan. A voice, seemingly mixed with emotion, rang in Jiang Chuan's ear:

"You're dead, Jiang Chuan."

Jiang Chuan chuckled: "There are plenty of people who want to kill me, who do you think you are?"

"But I have to remind you of something."

"Those who wanted to kill me are all dead now."

Clang! Clang! Clang! As they spoke, the dagger and the longsword clashed together rapidly, sparks flying everywhere.

It's too late to say.

At this moment, almost everyone was engaged in close combat with the drug addict from Gansu.

At this moment, those who rushed up were all experts in physical strength. Although they were not in good condition, they could hold out for some time with their superior numbers.

However, those watching from the rear were people whose mental energy was severely depleted and who had almost lost their ability to fight, including Shi Shan and Sun Yuan.

Jiang Chuan had just made it clear that he would buy them time to recover. At this moment, Sun Yuan and Shi Shan stopped thinking about anything else and entered a meditative state, seizing the time to recover.

However, the other wounded and the spiritual awakeners who did not have such a convenient method of "entering meditation" to recover looked at the battlefield with grim expressions.

The difficulties are visible to the naked eye.

Apart from Jiang Chuan, who was able to hold his own, everyone else was completely outmatched. Even in one-on-many situations, their opponents' speed and strength utterly overwhelmed them.

In just a few seconds, someone was already injured.

For these elites, scratches usually don't affect their combat effectiveness, but the situation is different now. They are extremely weak, but they stand up because of their firm will.

Another injury will certainly further reduce mobility...

And the result was already quite obvious.

The seven of them remained where they were, watching the battlefield, which seemed poised to decide the outcome in mere seconds, their eyes filled with resentment.

Why should I face this ending when I am clearly one of the best and have a bright future ahead of me?

Are we all going to die here?

What exactly are these people from Gansu trying to do?
Anxiety and unease raged in everyone's hearts.

One of them spoke up:
"We should go and help..."

This idea had actually been conceived by others long ago, but they simply hadn't brought it up.

As for why it wasn't mentioned, the reason is quite simple:
"How can we help? We'd only cause more trouble if we went."

Upon hearing this, the mentally awakened individual who had just offered to help immediately fell silent again.

Huang Yixing gripped the bow, holding the last arrow, staring intently at the battlefield, his face grim.

……

"Jiangchuan."

"Your companion is about to be killed."

"Our medication lasts for a full two hours."

"You, and these guys, are all dead."

Jiang Chuan was certainly aware of this as well.

Even Zhang Beishan, a master who could withstand his frequent attacks, whose recovery speed was comparable to Lin Ci's, and who was not injured in the beast tide, was now covered in blood. The hard bone armor he had created on his body was now as brittle as freshly baked pastry.

Lin Ci and Chen Ming were working together to fight the giant tiger.

Although the tiger was covered in wounds, this only fueled its ferocity. If Lin Ci hadn't gritted his teeth and grown to a gigantic size, and if Chen Ming's Tai Chi could deflect the force, the two of them would probably have already perished in the tiger's jaws.

Everyone is doing their best to hold on.

Everyone wants to create opportunities...

However, at this moment, given such an absolute disparity in strength, there is really no chance of turning the tide.

Unless a miracle occurs.

If it weren't for the obvious murderous intent emanating from the other side, some of them would surely have surrendered...

Everyone understood that this was no longer a simple competition.

That beast tide, these drug addicts from Gansu, all represent what they are facing—a matter of life and death.

Ke Jingxing, from the Sichuan organization, had never felt the iron rod in his hand could be so heavy. He roared in despair:

"Damn it! Where are the field crew?! Are they all fucking dead?!"

"They were all fucking killed by those monsters?!"

"Waste! Waste!"

At that moment, a blade flashed overhead, and in his haste, Ke Jingxing gritted his teeth and raised his iron rod to try and block it.

when!
The steel knife struck the iron rod, sparks flying once more. Ke Jingxing's trembling hand could no longer grip the iron rod, and the knife actually knocked it down. The end of that knife was his shoulder!

brush!
"what!!!"

A shrill, tragic scream rang out as Ke Jingxing's right arm was severed by the blade!
The arm flew off, clearly incapacitated, but the drug addict from Gan City had no intention of letting him live. He immediately switched his grip on the knife from a forward hand to a reverse hand and slashed at the man's neck!
when!
A sleek longsword came from the side and collided with the blade!
Can……

The force of the slash was so great that it actually cut right through the man's neck, even as the longsword was pressed against it!

The artery was severed, and blood splattered onto the person dressed in white.

In the distance, as Shi Shan was recovering with his eyes closed, tears kept overflowing from under his eyelids.

Some of the team members who couldn't participate in the battle stared wide-eyed, while others subconsciously avoided eye contact, unable to look directly at each other.

"Ke Jingxing!"

Meanwhile, several members of the Sichuan organization who were fighting also let out a cry of grief and astonishment.

They really did kill!
This scene undoubtedly instilled fear in everyone's hearts.

Even though you already know that the other party will definitely kill you, seeing this scene actually happen still makes your hair stand on end!

This is clearly just a competition.

Even though they had already survived the beast tide...

But how did things develop to this point?

Li Yi gritted her teeth. Her face, which was already a few shades paler than others, became even paler now, indicating that she had already exhausted herself.

The drug addict from Gan City sneered, looked at Li Yi, and asked:
"You want to die too?"

Li Yi's eyes held an unprecedented rage. She didn't speak, but brandished her sword and charged forward to meet the enemy!

……

Jiang Chuan also witnessed the death of the man with the stick.

Everything happened too fast for him to take care of everyone.

He didn't know the specific condition of each person, let alone that the guy named Ke Jingxing could barely lift a stick anymore.

This had nothing to do with Jiangchuan.

But he felt a tightness in his heart.

In addition to the grief of witnessing the death of their own people, there is also pessimism about the situation.

Before Ke Jingxing died, the situation was only barely holding on, but once he died, the stalemate would collapse in a matter of seconds!

I originally wanted to wait until Shi Shan and the others recovered...

But now it seems I won't be able to wait until then.

Jiang Chuan's gaze swept across the battlefield. Everyone was injured, and even Lin Ci and Chen Ming's teamwork was about to be completely destroyed by the giant tiger...

"Oh shit."

Jiang Chuan cursed.

He took a deep breath...

I'll leave these last bit of spiritual energy behind!
At that moment, everyone sensed a force that was rapidly increasing!
It was as if a dazzling light had suddenly burst forth from the darkness!
