The Most Powerful Brain in the Interstellar Space

Chapter 326 Choice
Jiang Hui was at a loss for words, but this was clearly not the time to talk about it. After giving the other person a rough bandage, she immediately assumed a carrying position.

“I…” Clarence Luns was interrupted by Jiang Hui before he could finish speaking: “—What do you mean, ‘I’? Alright, put your hand on me. You’re much taller than me, so please lend me your strength, otherwise you’ll fall down.”

Clarence was a little stunned. He didn't expect Jiang Hui to pick him up without even saying hello.

He hadn't been on guard against Jiang Hui, and after hearing the other's reminder, his hand changed from an instinctive push to a gentle touch. He realized that his center of gravity was slightly off, and if he pushed again, he might actually fall over, which would be truly laughable. It was better to cooperate now.

"We need to find a way up quickly... or find another exit that's closer." Feeling the other person's hand cautiously gripping her shoulder, Jiang Hui finally relaxed and looked around at the surroundings.

They fell from the upper tectonic plate at a considerable height. Although interstellar people are generally considered to have strong physiques and physical abilities, many were still knocked unconscious by the fall. So, there are still two or three people lying on the ground, surrounded by relatives or kind-hearted people trying to wake them up.

Some people had already regained their senses and, supporting themselves on the railings, were walking unsteadily toward the passage leading upwards.

This is actually quite dangerous. The stadium's seating is designed to jut out at an angle, and the sidewalk surfaces are made of a reflective material. If a beam of light shines directly in this direction, everything above will be clearly visible. This design, intended to provide clear visibility for the audience, has now become an obstacle to their survival.

Normally, walking on that surface wouldn't be a problem, but in the current situation, it's become quite conspicuous. Those terrorists are already in a frenzy, indiscriminately firing at innocent civilians in all directions and angles. Who knows if they might spot this group and immediately shoot them?!
Furthermore, the uppermost part of this pedestrian walkway is severely damaged for some reason, with a gap that is extremely difficult to access without help.

Jiang Hui's mind raced as she looked to the other side. There were two sidewalks on either side of them. Actually, that side wasn't a good choice either, because the pedestrian walkway there was in much worse condition, riddled with potholes and obviously difficult to walk on, especially since Jiang Hui was carrying someone on her back.

However, the unevenness also had its advantages. The piles of destroyed equipment and building materials piled up on the other side of the passage served as cover, and it was also much farther away from the battleground than the other side of the passage...

In truth, Jiang Hui didn't possess such mystical abilities; she merely made rough judgments with the naked eye. However, since arriving in interstellar space, her "intuition" had often been remarkably accurate, and several times, following her train of thought had yielded unexpected successes. Therefore, in this extremely critical situation, Jiang Hui chose to trust herself and opted for the other side.

With difficulty, Jiang Hui climbed up a piece of scrap material while carrying someone on her back. She looked around nervously, wishing she had two more pairs of eyes and two more pairs of ears to take in everything around her, afraid of missing even the slightest thing and causing trouble for the two of them.

She herself was one thing, but she also had a young man in the prime of his life on her side, and Jiang Hui didn't want to be the one to blame. But given the other person's situation, she had no choice but to make a decision for him.

She whispered to Clarence, who was on her back, to be careful of their surroundings. Since she was in charge of climbing and carrying someone, even the sharpest intuition, hearing, and vision would be somewhat impaired, so Clarence's help would make things easier.

The blink of an eye can save a life or kill it; in such a life-or-death situation, one must not let one's guard down for even a moment.

As if sensing a silent nod from the person on her back, Jiang Hui didn't ask any further questions. She had suffered a similar injury before and knew how painful it was. Besides, she didn't have any clotting powder on hand; he had used it all up last time, and she hadn't thought to keep any on hand. So Clarence's leg injury really had only been treated simply, without any pain relief. He was probably in a lot of pain right now and probably didn't even want to talk.

However, Jiang Hui had no doubt about the other party's ability and determination. Just as Clarence had tacitly approved of Jiang Hui's seemingly unwise choice, Jiang Hui now had to absolutely trust Clarence. Only then did Jiang Hui begin to climb the ladder.

It was really difficult to carry someone up this pile of construction debris, which was of varying heights, much more difficult than she had imagined.

Several people who had fallen with them followed, but they gave up after climbing only a short distance and then went to the other side.

Jiang Hui saw that the flat area where everyone had fallen was now empty. Those who could walk and those who couldn't were frantically helping themselves onto the pedestrian walkway, all wanting to leave as quickly as possible.

Although that side was easier to walk on, it was closer to a chaotic battleground, making it particularly dangerous, with broken building materials and debris constantly flying towards them. Some people were unlucky enough to be hit after only a few steps, so many people stumbled and fell along the way.

On the contrary, there are no scattered "attacks" on Jiang Huixuan's side for the time being, but the path itself is very difficult to walk, especially the lower to middle section, which is the most difficult, without exception.

When almost half of the people on the other side had left, Jiang Hui was still struggling with only a third of the journey, which made her begin to doubt whether her choice was correct.

but……

Hearing some noise, Jiang Hui looked down and found that several more people had turned back onto the sidewalk. One of them had a cut on his head, and blood was flowing freely. The wound was covered by his hair, so the extent of the injury was unclear, but his lips looked very pale.

Jiang Hui pursed her lips and continued climbing.

After passing the first rather bumpy section, the middle section of the road suddenly became much easier to walk, and Jiang Hui and the others were much faster than before.

"Hurry! They're moving this way," Clarence suddenly said from behind.

Jiang Hui was immediately alarmed and looked towards the nearest chaotic battleground. Sure enough, it had moved a bit. Moreover, the battle there was becoming increasingly fierce, with various weapons clashing and shooting out bright light. The momentum was growing stronger and stronger than when he first saw it, and it seemed that they were moving towards this side while fighting.

Following her line of sight, she even saw a rather unlucky guy on the other side of the sidewalk get hit on the head by an unidentified object flying from afar, and immediately crouch down. That's really dangerous over there... really dangerous.

Whether it was Jiang Hui or the others who later changed course, upon seeing this, they couldn't help but speed up their movements, wishing they could immediately climb onto the platform where the exit was located to escape their current situation.
