Chapter 1061: Oh my, the survival variety show ran into my ex! 31
Netizens who couldn't see Jin Chen all crowded into Yu Sui's screen.
But no matter how they flooded the barrage, Yu Sui still couldn't see anything.
Yu Sui followed according to memory, but couldn't find Jin Chen at all, and never got close.
Worse, he encountered another disturbance along the way; now Yu Sui himself isn't sure of his direction.
The map in his memory is now completely useless.
Yu Sui could only crouch and listen to locate himself, even though this is extremely dangerous in a jungle full of dangers.
Listening to locate is also a kind of special-agent training, requiring intense focus; any danger easily leads to being hit, and it demands great willpower.
He knows this isn't a good method, but right now there's no better choice.
Finding Jin Chen as soon as possible is the most important.
Cold sweat dripped down; just as he was about to determine direction from faint sounds, the ground shook again.
Yu Sui frowned tightly, then suddenly opened his eyes.
"Can't find him."
He muttered softly, his tone bewildered.
When he stood up, he realized the front had become a cliff.
Below the cliff is a surging river, at least a hundred meters from the opposite bank.
But behind him is the way he came, where Jin Chen isn't.
Yu Sui was thinking about how to get across when he suddenly became alert, turned, and drew his dagger.
"Werewolf."
In his hand… he held Jin Chen's tool, stained with blood.
The werewolf seemed to be telling him that Jin Chen had been trapped.
Yu Sui pressed his dry lips tight, the corners of his eyes sharp, and his charge was faster than the werewolf's.
Perhaps because the person who could restrain him wasn't nearby, Yu Sui was like a blade unleashed on a person—every strike deadly; though his stature wasn't as tall as the werewolf's, he gave the werewolf no advantage.
But it was bare-handed fighting; the dagger couldn't slash through the werewolf's overly rough hide, and Yu Sui himself suffered many wounds.
Yu Sui calmed himself, agilely sensing the werewolf's movement direction and intent, and quickly realized the werewolf wanted to snatch his backpack.
No, it wanted to steal the password.
Yu Sui firmly gripped the dagger, leapt lightly onto the werewolf's back, thrust the blade forward, and as the werewolf recoiled in pain, he flew forward with a kick, kicking it back.
After a few breaths, the werewolf's eyes were both gouged out, a bloody stench spread onto Yu Sui, the thing belonging to Jin Chen in his hand was thrown away, Yu Sui's tense little face grew colder, and he directly kicked the werewolf off the cliff.
Yu Sui stood coldly at the cliff's edge, his breathing somewhat heavy, hearing an abnormal sound from the opposite bank—Jin Chen was there.
He lowered his head, looked at the torn combat jacket and the arm bleeding out, expressionless, took a bandage from his backpack and wrapped it loosely.
He sat down directly on the ground, took out the cream bread Jin Chen had stuffed into his pack, and ate it in big bites to replenish his strength.
While eating the bread, Yu Sui's determined gaze always stayed on the opposite riverbank.
Jin Chen's old injury had just flared up yesterday; perhaps he couldn't escape the mastermind's trap.
He had to go over.
After a few bites of bread, Yu Sui used vines twined around trees to make a simple rappelling tool, planning to first descend the cliff, then swim across.
"【How dangerous!! What if the vine breaks?!】"
"【Little bro, stay calm!! Even an agent's body can't take this!】"
"【But Jin Chen's life or death is unknown now!! He might still be trapped by the werewolf; Yu Sui probably can't think that much.】"
The vine wasn't long enough; Yu Sui could only ensure he wouldn't fall into the water to his death.
He tied one end to a big tree and jumped down.
The cliff was steep, its wall sharp as needles.
During the descent, Yu Sui remained vertical, but dangers abounded; he almost hit a protruding boulder.
He immediately twisted his body in midair, but then heard the vine wound around his waist tighten, ready to snap at any moment.
Yu Sui could only rely on arm strength to grab the rock and slowly descend.
This was no different from inflicting heavy punishment on his already injured arm.
In just a dozen seconds, Yu Sui's arm felt sharp pain, his neck veins bulged, sweat dripped, his whole body strained to cling to the stone, his palm a bloody mess.
He didn't dare stop, gritted his teeth and endured a wave of pain, then jumped down again, but as time passed second by second, he was still halfway to the cliff bottom.
But Yu Sui didn't know that Jin Chen had already escaped the trap.
After using a puppet to escape the trap, Jin Chen used the controlled werewolf to follow the mastermind, while retracing his route back, and on the way met Shen Yi.
Shen Yi ran all the way, constantly looking back; when he met Jin Chen he was happy for only a few seconds, but discovered Jin Chen had no one beside him.
"Xie Shao was killed by He Chao."
Shen Yi's tone was very grave: "He said he was an investor, wanting to use this excuse to escape."
Jin Chen leisurely stopped, guessing that He Chao had probably been assimilated and then controlled by the mastermind.
"How did you run away?" Jin Chen asked.
Shen Yi's expression was tense: "Three werewolves attacked, we all got scattered; He Chao should be with… Lin Gui, Fang Yi, and Xia Dong together."
"I originally ran together with Su Nai and Zhong He, but the ground changed midway, and I got separated from them too."
Jin Chen listened for a long time without hearing his wife's name: "Yu Sui?"
Shen Yi sighed: "Not long after you left, our road had a disturbance; Yu Sui insisted on finding you no matter what."
"Now… I also don't know where he is."
Going missing on a deserted island is no trivial matter.
"【0731.】"
0731 instantly switched the main screen from the map to the villain screen, scared to the point of fur standing on end.
【Oh no, oh no, Host! The Main God is in danger!】
Having said that, it immediately gave Jin Chen directions.
Jin Chen didn't have time to hesitate; he turned and ran.
"Hey! Where are you going again?!"
Shen Yi was in the middle of talking to him when he saw the person disappear.
"Do you know where Yu Sui is?!!"
The only reply she got was the birds startled into flight.
Jin Chen ran forward at breakneck speed; just as he was about to reach the cliff's edge, he spotted Yu Sui on the opposite bank lowering himself down, and on the vine above him was a werewolf that had appeared beside the boulder.
The werewolf's claws could tear the vine at any moment; Yu Sui had no Spiritual Power to shield himself, so dropping from that height was no different from jumping off a building.
Jin Chen's heart pounded; he sprinted toward the cliff edge at top speed.
On the opposite bank, Yu Sui, turning and switching hands, caught sight of Jin Chen; his eyes lit up, as if all his pain had vanished.
"Don't move!"
Jin Chen shouted urgently, then dove into the water, lifting his arm to try to use Spiritual Power to hold up Yu Sui.
But the werewolf moved even faster; the instant the vine was severed, Yu Sui plummeted, the camera falling with him, and against the towering cliff he was so small he looked like a falling leaf.
In the nick of time, Jin Chen spotted a cave mouth above the river; he swiftly swam over, amidst the surging waves, accurately grabbed Yu Sui and swam toward the cave until he clambered onto the opening.
Both scrambled up; Jin Chen quickly shed his outer coat and flung it into the water.
The werewolf on the cliff crouched to look, found no trace of a person, but the coat drifted downstream—presumably it had already fallen to its death.
It turned and departed, a faint wolf howl rumbling from its throat.
