Chapter 98: Chapter 96

Overload

Chapter 96

The fierce sound of gunfire in the corridor, the giant spider that suddenly charged out….

Dragging his bloodied body, he and his teammates rushed as far into the depths of Golden Crow No. 2 as they could…….The chaotic scene was constantly imprinted into Ji Yushi’s mind.

As Team 5, they had used their blood and flesh to cut out a route for Team B, leaving enough information behind to let them escape from death. The moment Team B successfully closed the gate, a paradox emerged—–Team B who should’ve died had survived. Team 5 thus would disappear.

As if it had never happened, all the bloody corpses and traces left by them disappeared completely.

They were a cycle that no longer existed.

Even after the Ouroboros mission was completely over, Ji Yushi didn’t retain any memories from Team 5, but this time, he was experiencing it in detail.

This time, his capsule appeared on the roof of a building.

The communicator displayed [1470.08.05 02:41:31]. It was 2 hours earlier than when they first arrived at PU-31.

The hours before dawn was the darkest time of the day.

This building had a total of 122 floors. Standing on such a tall building, the wind was very strong, as if it would blow you off any moment if you weren’t being careful.

There was no traffic passing by. There were only a couple of scattered dim streetlights illuminating the roads below. From this height, it was almost impossible for one to see the zombies roaming the roads, but everyone knew that they were attracted by lights and had gone to a brighter place among the tall buildings. They wouldn’t come out until the sun rises again.

On the roof were several large words: Guangyuan Group.

The capsules of his other teammates were all hidden in the shadows of these large words. They all exited their capsules and began to discuss what they should do next.

From the looks of it, this wasn’t everyone’s first time arriving at the big cycle.

That’s right, Ji Yushi was currently in the big cycle in the Ouroboros mission.

They needed to activate the first black wall that appeared at the park management office at 5:30 in the morning to let their other selves who had just been hijacked and brought into this mission see it and then let the black wall drive them forward towards Golden Crow No. 1 and Golden Crow No. 2.

Ji Yushi was a little confused.

From Team 5 who had disappeared to this big cycle, there didn’t seem to be a regular pattern.

Right now, it was like he was playing an out of control role-playing character that was randomly stuffed into the plot. Fortunately, he happened to remember all the plot points so he wouldn’t be caught or regarded as a crazy person by his teammates.

“Advisor Ji.” Tang Qi walked over and said to him, “This time, Tang Le and I will go down to the 116^th floor first. Once we have checked on the situation there, the rest of you can come down.”

This scene was also something that had happened before.

In their previous endeavours, they had already figured out that this building belonging to Guangyuan Group was the company behind Golden Crow. Their existence had contributed to the operation and development of the artificial sun. As the initial research and development site, there were still several early energy transmitters in the building. Like what they did at the Golden Crow bases, the seventh squad had to turn off the energy transmitters here to completely close the cycle.

The building had a total of 122 floors. The elevators had been damaged and the stairs leading to the top few floors had also been destroyed. There were traces of a helicopter leaving the roof. It seemed that someone had cut off the way up so that they could escape without running into any difficulties.

Therefore, to reach the floors below, the squad could only use the grappling hook and zipline down to check on the status of each of the floors.

Probably because the floors were high enough to receive plenty of artificial sun rays, the zombies here were considerably more mutated than the ones on the ground and their speed and intelligence had also increased significantly. As of now, their squad had already been annihilated twice.

In general, this big cycle was much simpler than the ones from before, but it was a mission with no retreat.

“Any objections?”

Song Qinglan also walked over.

He looked at Ji Yushi and said the same thing as what Ji Yushi remembered, “Advisor Ji, you need to rest. You will soon have a lot of work to do when we find the energy transmitters. This time, let Tang Qi and Tang Le go down first. If they can’t, the rest of us will continue.”

The so-called ‘can’t’ referred to death.

With one or two people forming a group, if the previous group died, the next group would immediately take over.

Song Qinglan spoke very quickly and sounded a little ruthless.

But everyone knew very well that they didn’t have much time. There was less than 3 hours before the first black wall is due to appear at 5am. As of now, they had explored six floors and had not yet found the control room.

But Ji Yushi knew that the control room was on the 100^th floor.

If they went directly to the 100^th floor, perhaps they wouldn’t need to continue rushing to their deaths.

Regarding these chaotic memories, there were still some that he couldn’t distinguish between reality and illusion. His condition was worsening. He could only take out a pill and crush it with his teeth before swallowing it.

The current situation however made him reluctant to keep at it. He didn’t want to go through those cycles again. Just as he hesitated over whether he should say something, Song Qinglan was called away by his teammates.

Everything happened according to plan.

Tang Qi and Tang Le slid directly down the rope from the inner courtyard and, after reaching the 116^th floor, they hung in the air like a spider and swept away a bunch of zombies before swinging and landing onto the corridor

Everyone watched from the 122^nd floor.

They all waited nervously while holding their breaths.

Not hearing the gunshot signal they were waiting for, Song Qinglan gave an order, and everyone set up the grappling hooks again.

With prior experience paving the way for their other selves in the Golden Crow bases, they were no longer afraid of dying. Even if they knew that the road ahead was a dead end, they continued to rush ahead without hesitation.

When the building’s stairs were blown up, half the building was destroyed. The lights inside flickered on and off intermittently.

The night breeze blew past, messing up Ji Yushi’s black hair. He stood on the edge with a calm expression.

“You first or me first?”

A familiar voice asked.

Ji Yushi looked back. He saw Song Qinglan carrying Shen Mian. He was ready to set off.

The blue energy bullets glowed, making his tall figure appear almost divine.

Ji Yushi answered according to his memory, “I’ll go first.”

*

Song Qinglan exited his capsule and strode over to the centre of the roof.

The dark sky seemed like it was only a short distance from them. The seven faintly glowing capsules resembled a lotus.

Reaching a capsule, Song Qinglan stopped in his steps.

The people who had just left their capsules were surprised at his abnormality. They all looked over at him, “Cap Song?”

The capsule opened and out came Ji Yushi who ran into Song Qinglan head-on.

Song Qinglan examined him closely for two or three seconds but didn’t say anything and just turned and said to everyone, “This time we’ll go to the 119^th floor. We’ll take turns. Old Zhou, you take the lead.”

Zhou Mingxuan, “Aye!”

One after another, the teammates began searching again.

Song Qinglan was in a very bad mood. Everyone could see it. They could also see that he was trying to suppress his emotions and not let it affect the mission at hand.

Everyone thought Song Qinglan was like this because of this damned mission. Let alone the captain, even they themselves were angry at their current predicament where they had no choice but to continue advancing ahead—–To think that there was another bigger cycle after turning off all the energy transmitters. It was like they were being played with.

After a while, only half of the teammates were left on the roof.

Gunshots rang from below. Song Qinglan heard Ji Yushi ask him something.

“Huh?” He didn’t hear him clearly.

He only saw Ji Yushi ask again with his usually cold and calm expression, “Cap Song, did I make a mistake somewhere?”

Song Qinglan was slightly startled.

Hearing Ji Yushi’s words, Li Chun and Duan Wen behind them also looked over.

“After arriving here, you have been behaving a little differently.” Ji Yushi said, “If I did something wrong, you can tell me directly.”

Standing from Ji Yushi’s perspective, after turning off all the energy transmitters in the control room at Golden Crow No. 2, Song Qinglan had even comforted him and expressed his wish for him to remain in the seventh squad, but after repeating the cycle here twice, Song Qinglan’s mood had grown worse and worse. It made Ji Yushi feel like it was directed at him.

Ji Yushi may appear unaffected but in fact, it was the opposite. Under his cold appearance, he was actually quite sensitive.

How could Song Qinglan not know this? When he was asked this, he only felt his heart ache. Even his breathing stopped: “I——”

Ji Yushi didn’t care about his answer. He had already leapt off and slid down.

“Fuck, is Advisor Ji angry?” Duan Wen was shocked, “I thought he wouldn’t say anything.”

“Boss, let me give you a warning. Watch out for Advisor Ji ‘crack’——” Li Chun also calmly gave his advice. He imitated Ji Yushi’s action of breaking a zombie’s neck in Golden Crow No. 2, “Tsk, I was almost left dumbfounded. That move was both handsome and powerful.”

Song Qinglan, “…….”

He asked with a grim expression, “My attitude towards him wasn’t good?”

The two nodded at once like chicken pecking at rice.

“Very bad.”

“Completely different from before.”

“Not like you anymore.”

Fuck.

Even his teammates could see it. It meant that his unconscious attitude must have been very bad.

Song Qinglan gritted his teeth and similarly slid down the rope.

The battle below was fierce. Song Qinglan went past the 121^st floor and the 120^th floor and saw his bloodied teammates from the previous cycle. All the rules in this big cycle were the same as the small cycle; space and time overlap, the existence of multiple teams at the same time.

While sliding down the rope, Song Qinglan saw Li Chun and Zhou Mingxuan on the 121^st floor being bitten by a group of crazy zombies. On the 120^th floor, he, Tang Qi and Tang Le were running like mad down the corridor while Duan Wen and Ji Yushi on the other end were shooting at the waves of zombies charging at them.

Like all the other teammates, Song Qinglan turned a blind eye to this and smoothly went down to the 119^th floor, looking for Ji Yushi.

This place had already been cleaned up considerably by the teammates who had arrived earlier.

The floor was covered with blood stains.

After landing, Song Qinglan flipped forward, pulled out his military knife and killed a zombie that was charging towards him.

Just ahead was Ji Yushi.

Song Qinglan: “Ji Yushi——”

Before he could finish speaking, he saw Ji Yushi’s expression suddenly change. Holding Diamond Bird, he pointed it at him and fired.

“Bang!”

Song Qinglan’s cheeks felt warm. A zombie behind him was shot in the head and its foul-smelling blood had splattered onto his face, “……”

Even if he was still angry, even if they weren’t together yet, Ji Yushi was afraid of him being bitten to death?

Song Qinglan was almost rendered deaf from the gunfire, but his heart felt warm.

He even felt that he was a little perverted.

“You’re welcome.” Ji Yushi said coldly and then turned and left.
