Chapter 357 A Critical Moment

After hearing what Qiao Yu said, Hua Yue felt her heart tighten and sweat unconsciously broke out on her palms.

She had been uneasy since the beginning, fearing that something might happen to Yu Qingchuan.

But whatever you fear will come true.

Hua Yue now wishes she could grow wings and fly to the research institute immediately.

Everyone climbed onto Wang Zha's back again and turned around and ran towards the research institute as fast as they could.

"Qiao Yu, is Achuan okay?"

The person asking the questions was Cheng Sinian.

Seeing Hua Yue looking at Qiao Yu with a reserved look as if she wanted to ask something but didn't dare, he simply asked for her.

Upon hearing this, Hua Yue immediately raised her head and looked at Qiao Yu with a very nervous expression.

"The situation is still unclear. Although Yu Teng is connected to my consciousness, he is not human after all, so he can't express it directly." Qiao Yu shook his head slightly. "The only thing we know now is... Qingchuan is injured."

When Hua Yue heard this, her face turned pale.

Seeing Hua Yue's worried look, Qiao Yu couldn't help but comfort her, "But don't worry, Yueyue. Since Qingchuan was able to send me a distress signal, he must still be conscious. Wang Zha is very fast and will be here soon. Don't worry, Qingchuan will be fine!"

Qiao Yu's eyes were very firm, which barely made Hua Yue's heart feel a little relieved.

After seeing Hua Yue's mood stabilize a little, Qiao Yu breathed a sigh of relief and lowered his eyelashes slightly.

Although she said it so confidently, she was actually unsure in her heart.

The cry for help from Yu Teng was very urgent, and it was obvious that the situation on Yu Qingchuan's side was not optimistic.

Lure the tiger away from the mountain...

They had just used this trick in City A, but they didn't expect that it would be their turn now.

If Dr. Ruan was not still imprisoned in City G, she would have suspected that Dr. Ruan had deliberately come to retaliate against them.

But the person behind this is much more ruthless than they were back then.

Using alien species to attack in order to conceal one's tracks is like trying to get the skin of a tiger.

They simply want to destroy the survivor base in City G!

Qiao Yu pursed his lips, a hint of ruthlessness flashing in his eyes.

The situation at the gate is urgent now, but it looks like we can hold out for a while.

If their guess just now was correct, it meant that they had now found the reason for the alien attack. As long as they could temporarily transfer the crystal, they should be able to resolve the current urgent problem.

Jiang Zhan said that as long as they could distance themselves from the alien tide, they should be able to weaken the impact of the crystal on the aliens.

Now, they could only pray that Mu Guan and Feng Xing could hold on a little longer, buying them some more time...

--

Wang Zha obviously felt everyone's concern and ran with almost all his strength.

It usually takes nearly an hour to drive from the gate to the research institute, but Wang Zha arrived in just over 20 minutes.

It was not until they arrived at the gate of the institute that everyone realized that there was not a single survivor around and it was surprisingly quiet.

The gate of the institute was tightly shut, and the situation inside could not be seen from the outside. However, as Jiang Zhan approached the door, his brows knitted slightly, and he immediately enveloped everyone with a mental barrier. Then he said in a deep voice, "Hurry up and get in over the wall! Yu Qingchuan and Professor Kang are in danger!"

When everyone heard this, their hearts sank.

Without hesitation, he used his supernatural power to climb over the wall and enter the yard.

There were many buildings in the research institute of the survivor base in City G. Jiang Zhan led everyone through many twists and turns until they arrived in front of a five-story building and whispered, "They are all here."

Qiao Yu's eyes flickered when he heard this. "Ah Zhan, the 'they' you mentioned... include Xie Ping'an, Ling Shu, and that fake 'Li Wencai'?"

"Yeah." Jiang Zhan nodded, "They are all on the rooftop terrace now. We don't have to go in, we can just go directly to the rooftop."

As soon as Jiang Zhan finished speaking, everyone used their special abilities to climb along the outer wall of the building and directly to the roof.

As soon as they stood still, they saw two groups of people confronting each other not far away.

Ling Shu and the fake "Li Wencai" stood there calmly, with only a few scratches on their bodies, looking very composed.

On the other side——

Xie Ping'an was lying on the side, unconscious; Yu Qingchuan was half-kneeling on the ground, covered in blood, his face as pale as paper, and his forehead was covered in blood, making it impossible to tell how many wounds he had.

But even so, Yu Qingchuan still tried his best to support himself, raising one hand tremblingly to tightly protect Professor Kang and Professor Shen who were holding the crystal behind him.

Professor Kang and Professor Shen also looked a little embarrassed at this time.

Professor Kang's face was not only scratched by some sharp object, but blood was also flowing down his cheeks; Professor Shen's clothes were already torn to pieces, his body was covered in blood, and even standing was a little difficult.

"Researcher Yu, stop struggling." The fake "Li Wencai" said slowly, "Just hand over the crystal stone and Professor Kang and Professor Shen to us."

"As long as you are willing to hand them over, I will let you live, how about it?"

Yu Qingchuan pursed his lips tightly and did not answer, but his face was full of stubbornness, and it was obvious that he was refusing.

Seeing this, the fake "Li Wencai" stopped smiling and was about to speak again when he heard Xie Ping'an beside him suddenly make some movements.

"Dream...dream!" Xie Pingan supported himself on the ground, and just as he opened his mouth, he spat out a mouthful of blood with a "wow" sound.

But he covered his chest with one hand, supported himself on the ground, and slowly climbed up with trembling hands.

Xie Ping'an stared at the fake Li Wencai and Ling Shu with a fierce gaze, his eyes full of murderous intent, as if he wanted to skin them alive.

Seeing this, the fake Li Wencai snorted coldly, "Humph! If you don't accept the toast, you will have to drink the penalty drink!"

"I originally wanted to let you go because you're real men. But since you're so ignorant, don't blame me for killing you!"

As he spoke, the fake Li Wencai raised his hand slightly, but at this moment, Ling Shu on the side suddenly stopped him.

"Wait, you promised me not to kill Xie Ping'an!"

The fake Li Wencai frowned, "Didn't you see him putting up a desperate fight?"

"If he interferes and prevents us from completing the mission, both of us will be in trouble!"

"Just go and kill yourself, but don't drag me down with you!"

"No!" Ling Shu pursed his lips, his attitude very firm, "At least he can't die before Ling Shu dies!"

The fake Li Wencai frowned slightly upon hearing this, "Tsk. What a hassle!"

"Alright! I don't think he has much time left anyway, so let's deal with Yu Qingchuan first!"

As the fake Li Wencai spoke, his arms suddenly turned into sharp claws, his whole body slightly arched forward, and with a "whoosh" he shot towards Yu Qingchuan.

Yu Qingchuan was badly injured. He could only watch him rush towards him, but he was powerless to dodge. A trace of despair flashed through his heart.

"Qingchuan!"

Seeing this, Professor Kang and Professor Shen behind Yu Qingchuan both rushed to Yu Qingchuan and held him in their arms.

But the expected pain did not come.

The fake Li Wencai's sharp claws were blocked by a spider leg that appeared out of nowhere.

Immediately afterwards, Professor Kang and Professor Shen felt as if a shadow was covering their heads.

The four of them slowly raised their heads and immediately saw Huayue in spider form.
