Chapter 1011: Survival Hope! Is That... the Boss?!

"Dead?" Ximen Zhirou asked.

"There's still a breath left, but..." Wen Ran's face showed grief.

Wang Yuning, seeing she couldn't bring herself to speak, proactively added, "Couldn't find the Injection."

"What?!" Everyone was startled together.

Lu Junsheng hurriedly fumbled through it, his eyes full of disbelief.

"How could it be missing? Near the game, Su Yang clearly gave each person one."

Yet he felt his entire body, even checking every nook and cranny.

The result was exactly as Wang Yuning said.

Aside from a few business cards of unknown origin, there was nothing else.

"Did this guy hide the thing at home?" Ximen Zhirou hurriedly asked.

Wen Ran shook his head silently.

"How could..." Lu Junsheng clenched his teeth, his eyes full of unwillingness.

Although his time interacting with Wang Defa was short.

His first impression of him wasn't very good.

But as contact continued during the Buffer Period, he found that although Wang Defa was a bit chatty, he was still a decent person.

At least he didn't give off an uncomfortable feeling.

At the same time, he treated his brothers and sisters with sincere openness.

He seemed out of sync in daily life, but actually cared deeply for those around him.

Especially the companions who 'joined' him.

Zhuang Wu's eyes were wet; he clutched the already-used syringe, full of regret, "My injuries aren't that severe, why didn't you give it to Brother Fa?"

Ximen Zhirou frowned, "What's the use of hindsight now? Isn't your life just life? If you can save one, you save one."

Zhuang Wu slammed the syringe onto the ground, his lips tightly pressed.

Wang Yuning stared expressionlessly for a moment, then said, "Being alive is already a great fortune among misfortunes; don't ask for too much."

"That guy's physical condition is inherently far stronger than ours."

"Look at the corpses around us; we're already lucky enough."

"Besides, Wang Defa still has a breath left; if the Injection is found, he still has hope of reviving."

"So don't wallow in self‑pity here, don't shoulder the blame onto yourself, and certainly don't push it onto your partners."

"Since the matter has already happened, find a way to solve the problem."

"Complaining solves nothing."

Wen Ran wiped the tears from the corner of his eye, agreeing, "If we keep dragging it out, there will truly be no hope."

Lu Junsheng looked up, his complexion changing.

"The car door opened?!"

Wen Ran turned his head in the flow, then sprinted forward to check the car's back seat.

Where inside is Guo Fan's silhouette?

"He's gone!"

"Who?" Ximen Zhirou asked.

"Guo Fan!" Wen Ran said.

"Guo Fan was actually in your hands?" Ximen Zhirou was stunned.

Wen Ran hurriedly explained the whole story, Wang Defa's Innate Talent, and what he 'saw'.

"Why didn't you share such crucial intelligence earlier?" Ximen Zhirou asked.

"At that critical moment just now, there was no time to speak; rushing to rescue was already a timely rain." Wen Ran explained.

That's also correct...

Ximen Zhirou sighed, only then realizing Wang Defa's Innate Talent was so powerful.

He could forcibly hijack the other's memories via Mind Invasion.

"Thus, regarding the Imperial Company Secret Experiment, aside from Guo Fan, only Wang Defa can decipher it," Ximen Zhirou said.

"Guo Fan was kidnapped, fate unknown, and Brother Fa only has a breath left, then..." Zhuang Wu felt the situation was in a deadlock.

"We must revive the person!" Ximen Zhirou said in a deep voice.

"Stop dragging it any longer, let's go!" Lu Junsheng said while carefully extracting Wang Defa's body.

To avoid causing major secondary injuries.

He could only use the simplest and most plain method.

Now pray he can hold on a bit longer.

The five ran out of the Air-raid Shelter, discovering the outside was also a wreck.

The situation wasn't much better than inside.

"So many dead, how to tell who the players are?" Zhuang Wu was instantly at a loss.

"This game has no Ascend God Seed or Dependents distinction; Gene Modification warriors are all Red‑Eyed," Ximen Zhirou said.

"The problem is flipping through them one by one until the year of the monkey and month of the horse? Moreover, even players aren't guaranteed to carry the Injection." Zhuang Wu said.

Ximen Zhirou knit his brows, only glancing at him.

He said no more.

Now the situation is critical; aside from searching one by one with this method, there is no other choice.

And Zhuang Wu's mouth was snarking, but his body was honest, moving decisively and efficiently.

Ximen Zhirou Sight this scene also swallowed the scolding words back.

He is like that, Vision Perception not to tolerate directly spews.

No matter who you are.

During the search, Lu Junsheng suddenly noticed a strange phenomenon.

The street was eerily quiet.

Not a single pedestrian.

This street originally could not be called a bustling district.

But because of the unrest, countless civilians poured in.

The front part was still very crowded, but after Su Yang woke up there wasn't even a ghostly figure.

Such a bizarre phenomenon made him can't help but doubt in his heart.

"What on earth happened?"

Because Wang Defa's life was in imminent danger, he chose to swallow the confusion for now.

Find the Injection later.

But not long after, Wang Yuning, who had climbed onto the power tower nearby, suddenly shouted.

"You all come quickly and look, something's wrong!"

At these words, everyone exchanged glances, and all ran toward her.

Ximen Zhirou climbed ten meters up to gaze into the distance.

The scene before him instantly left him stunned.

"This is…"

Only to see a sea of dark crowd moving in unison, orderly marching toward the same direction.

Like walking corpses, terrifying as such.

"So it's not that people died out, but they all fled!" Lu Junsheng's expression turned serious.

"Where are they going?" Zhuang Wu asked, puzzled.

"I don't know, shall we follow and see?" Wen Ran suggested.

"What for? What if it's a Trap?" Zhuang Wu voiced opposition.

Ximen Zhirou thought for a moment, a Radiance flashed in his eyes, "No, we must go!"

"Why?" Zhuang Wu asked, puzzled, pointing at the Wang Defa on Lu Junsheng's back, "Fa Ge, isn't he going to rescue?"

Wang Yuning saw what he was thinking, explained: "Precisely because we need to rescue people, we must go to where there are many people."

"Within these corpse‑like crowds, there may be Gene Modification warriors hidden."

"Instead of searching for a needle in the ocean, better to go directly to the place with the highest probability!"

"This not only saves time, but also maximizes efficiency."

Lu Junsheng at this moment voiced his doubt, "Why did they become like this, and… why aren't we affected?"

This question wasn't only his; others also shared the same doubt.

But right now it was clearly not the time to be tangled over this question.

Ximen Zhirou directly seized a seven‑seater vehicle and sped toward the incident site.

Soon after, he arrived at the Lower City District where the crowd surged.

The group got off the vehicle, looked up, and saw a dazzling light sphere appear on the horizon.

It shone brilliantly like the sun.

"Is that a person?!" Lu Junsheng shouted.

"Wait, look!" Wang Yuning's breathing suddenly quickened, and she pointed.

A few people looked in that direction, their bodies trembling like tigers.

Below the light sphere, on the mountain peak, a man wrapped in a pure white aura stood with his hands behind his back.

Even though they were far apart, they could still feel a sense of familiarity.

"He is…"

"Su Yang?!"

"Boss?!"
