Chapter 96: Overload

The fierce sound of gunfire in the corridor, the giant spider that suddenly charged out….
Dragging his bloodied body, he and his teammates rushed as far into the depths of Golden Crow No. 2 as they could…….The chaotic scene was constantly imprinted into Ji Yushi’s mind.

As Team 5, they had used their blood and flesh to cut out a route for Team B, leaving enough information behind to let them escape from death. The moment Team B successfully closed the gate, a paradox emerged—–Team B who should’ve died had survived. Team 5 thus would disappear.

As if it had never happened, all the bloody corpses and traces left by them disappeared completely.
They were a cycle that no longer existed.
Even after the Ouroboros mission was completely over, Ji Yushi didn’t retain any memories from Team 5, but this time, he was experiencing it in detail.

This time, his capsule appeared on the roof of a building.
The communicator displayed [1470.08.05 02:41:31]. It was 2 hours earlier than when they first arrived at PU-31.

The hours before dawn was the darkest time of the day.
This building had a total of 122 floors. Standing on such a tall building, the wind was very strong, as if it would blow you off any moment if you weren’t being careful.

There was no traffic passing by. There were only a couple of scattered dim streetlights illuminating the roads below. From this height, it was almost impossible for one to see the zombies roaming the roads, but everyone knew that they were attracted by lights and had gone to a brighter place among the tall buildings. They wouldn’t come out until the sun rises again.

On the roof were several large words: Guangyuan Group.

The capsules of his other teammates were all hidden in the shadows of these large words. They all exited their capsules and began to discuss what they should do next.
From the looks of it, this wasn’t everyone’s first time arriving at the big cycle.

That’s right, Ji Yushi was currently in the big cycle in the Ouroboros mission.
They needed to activate the first black wall that appeared at the park management office at 5:30 in the morning to let their other selves who had just been hijacked and brought into this mission see it and then let the black wall drive them forward towards Golden Crow No. 1 and Golden Crow No. 2.

Ji Yushi was a little confused.
From Team 5 who had disappeared to this big cycle, there didn’t seem to be a regular pattern.
Right now, it was like he was playing an out of control role-playing character that was randomly stuffed into the plot. Fortunately, he happened to remember all the plot points so he wouldn’t be caught or regarded as a crazy person by his teammates.

“Advisor Ji.” Tang Qi walked over and said to him, “This time, Tang Le and I will go down to the 116th floor first. Once we have checked on the situation there, the rest of you can come down.”

This scene was also something that had happened before.

In their previous endeavours, they had already figured out that this building belonging to Guangyuan Group was the company behind Golden Crow. Their existence had contributed to the operation and development of the artificial sun. As the initial research and development site, there were still several early energy transmitters in the building. Like what they did at the Golden Crow bases, the seventh squad had to turn off the energy transmitters here to completely close the cycle.
The building had a total of 122 floors. The elevators had been damaged and the stairs leading to the top few floors had also been destroyed. There were traces of a helicopter leaving the roof. It seemed that someone had cut off the way up so that they could escape without running into any difficulties.
Therefore, to reach the floors below, the squad could only use the grappling hook and zipline down to check on the status of each of the floors.
Probably because the floors were high enough to receive plenty of artificial sun rays, the zombies here were considerably more mutated than the ones on the ground and their speed and intelligence had also increased significantly. As of now, their squad had already been annihilated twice.
