Chapter 559 Adventure Search
There weren't many adults who survived in the corridor; the real children were too young to even know what was happening, thinking it was some new game. No one knows how heartbroken people were when they heard children crying, "Don't play this game!" "I hate this game!"

Perhaps they didn't know that this might be the last "game" they would ever play in their lives—a cruel game.

The students in Class Two are nearing adulthood, and many of them may fully awaken in a few years, or even a year or two. They are already sensible, and despite their fear, they still know what they should do.

Although they knew their strength was limited and they couldn't truly help, or even save their own lives, those children were actually much younger than them... yet they still helped those parents guide their children towards the only hope for survival on the other side.

One end leads to life, the other to silent destruction. These students, who haven't even officially joined the military, feel like they've been torn in two, suffering from this tragic life-or-death choice while fearing the impending threat of death.

Why is this happening? Why...? Who can save them?
The space was filled with the smell of blood and death, yet no one uttered a cry of pain. It wasn't that they weren't in pain, but rather that none of them wanted to fail at the last moment.

Time passed slowly, and the second group of students who were assigned to the second evacuation also completely lost their chance to escape.

They were in pain knowing they had no chance of survival, but they knew they weren't the only ones suffering; many more had gone before them for the sake of young children, and now it was their turn.

They knew they were also young seeds being protected by others—they just didn't have enough time.

But the students in Class Two were ultimately lucky. Perhaps it was a kind gift from fate that they survived, being sandwiched in the middle.

But at the same time, it also pushes them further into an even more desperate situation.

This space, less than fifty cubic meters in size, was packed with over forty people. The air was dwindling, and the upper levels were still experiencing aftershocks, causing the vertical distance between the upper and lower levels to shrink gradually. They had no tools to save themselves, no one was there to rescue them, and their personal computers were almost completely unable to connect to any of their ports.

They didn't even know why they were in this predicament; they thought it was just an ordinary disaster and were still hoping for military rescue.

However, the connection of a quantum computer communication plunged them further into the abyss.

A terrible event has occurred outside, and military rescue may not be possible—at least not in their lifetime.

The first thing that connected them wasn't Jiang Hui, but a communicator that had probably been destroyed and trapped in a building's mezzanine not far away. The other party connected to the quantum computer and kept trying to bypass wavelength interference to issue a warning.

Unfortunately, the other person didn't know that the person he was looking for was probably already dead. This anxious man, desperate to find his child, kept asking the communicator's owner where she was, telling her about the 'Star Beast attack,' and urging her to take her child to a nearby military base for shelter…

As the energy wavelengths on that side were completely disrupted, communication came to an abrupt halt.

And they grew increasingly desperate.

News such as "the battle line was maliciously damaged," "the star beast horde attacked West Island," and "the military headquarters was in chaos" told them that their chances of survival were getting smaller and smaller.

After that, at some point, all communications stopped working, and they were never able to connect with another person.

God knows how happy they were when they connected with Jiang Hui and found her in the mecha, but unfortunately it was all for naught.

The mezzanine they were in was now nearly two meters high on average, and everyone could only lean against it with difficulty, trying to gain some sense of security. They also gathered all the lighting tools they had, hoping to dispel the threat of death a little, but unfortunately, it was a drop in the ocean. Their fear stemmed from the ever-present threat of death, which could not be dispelled by a little light.

They had completely lost hope and could only hope that Jiang Hui could deliver their last words to their loved ones—if the other person was able to survive.

Although the situation was unclear, the other side naturally had a greater advantage in terms of survival. In comparison, they were the ones truly facing death…

But what is this person saying?
They're coming to save them... to let them live?!

Can they really do it?
“Did you hear that?” Jaidi’s hoarse voice rang out in the small, slightly trembling space, clearly reaching everyone’s ears.

"Jiang Hui will come to rescue us, so please hang in there, she will come. I have already sent her the address information."

“She lets us live—wait for her.”

The name Jiang Hui was like a flame, instantly warming everyone's chilled hearts.

Other adults might not know, but the Class Two students, who made up almost half of the people present, knew what kind of person Jiang Hui was.

When they entered Besca Intermediate Academy, the other party was like an eternal flame, always waving in front of them, which they could always watch and chase but could never truly get close to.

Their existence had once made them jealous and discouraged, and occasionally they had also felt envious and proud of them, but now they felt a sense of peace they had never felt before.

The other party said they were coming to rescue them... so could they really hope they could survive?
They don't know, nobody knows.

--------------

Jiang Hui had no idea how eagerly her classmates were watching; she was now in quite a bit of trouble herself.

She knew she was taking a gamble, courting death. The situation was unclear; everyone was trapped in this building, surrounded by all sorts of attacking star beasts… She couldn't even save herself, yet she wanted to save others. She was only carrying one more mech than the others, but she was forcibly taking on an immense burden.

But precisely because she has one more mech than others, she bears a greater responsibility in such a dangerous situation.

Although her entry into the combat individual soldier department was by chance, the teachings she received over the years have deeply touched her, the resources provided by the interstellar society, the school's meticulous cultivation, and the instructors' earnest guidance... these are all precious experiences she has had in this interstellar world.

Unbeknownst to her, she had already developed a strong sense of conviction. She wanted to become a soldier who could fight on the battlefield, just like her original parents, and to contribute to the world that had nurtured her all along.

What's more, the people trapped here, suffering all kinds of despair and pain, are her classmates, who were laughing and joking with her not long ago... They are so young, they shouldn't die.

So she came anyway. Foolish as it may be, Jiang Hui still came.
