Super Gene Hunting Ground

Chapter 289: Chapter 289: I’m Determined to Save This Person

”Gong Yu, go to hell!”

Wang Meng, his heart full of vengeance, thrust his longsword towards Gong Yu’s back.

Gong Yu, trampled under Wang Meng’s feet, was utterly powerless to fight back. He knew his death was certain this time and felt satisfied he could take down three others with him before dying.

Gong Yu felt a piercing killing aura on his back and closed his eyes.

Boom!

Suddenly, a loud explosion of force tore through the void in front of Wang Meng as a pair of huge tiger claws swiped at him.

Wang Meng had just stabbed into Gong Yu’s back when he felt his body jolt, and then he was sent flying.

Three young men hurried over.

One of them turned Gong Yu over and asked,

”Brother, are you Gong Yu?”

Gong Yu was extremely weak at this point. He opened his eyes and nodded.

He saw a smile on the man’s face.

”Boss, it’s Gong Yu. Luckily we arrived in time, there might still be hope for him.”

The one speaking was Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu immediately took out a porcelain bottle, poured out two Small Blood Pills, and placed them into Gong Yu’s mouth.

And said,

”Brother Gong Yu, don’t be afraid, we are friends of Yang Xiao. We’re here to help you. Quickly, swallow the Small Blood Pills and heal.”

Gong Yu, hearing the name Yang Xiao, felt a surge of emotion, and tears flowed down his face.

In this apocalypse, if there was any friend worth his worry, it was only Yang Xiao.

The three men who arrived were none other than Zhou Jian, Zhou Yu, and Xi Hui.

Three days ago, Zhou Jian and others had returned to Magic City, went to the university to report and hand over their mission, and then Zhou Jian took Zhou Yu and Xi Hui to look for Gong Yu at Magic City University.

However, Gong Yu was long gone from the school.

A few people familiar with Gong Yu told them that he had gone to the East Sea to dig for Ice Fish.

The trio, Zhou Jian, found themselves in a dilemma; the East Sea was so vast and freezing cold, how could they find him?

”Boss, have we not found him yet?”

”Of course we have to find him. I promised Yang Xiao I would. It’s already difficult for us to survive, let alone Gong Yu alone. Think about it, if Yang Xiao hadn’t stepped in to help us defeat the Qingyun Team in the desert, we might already be dead there. Now, as tough as searching for Gong Yu might be, if we don’t try, I’ll feel uneasy. Next time we see Yang Xiao, how will we face him?”

Xi Hui nodded,

”Boss, you give the word, and we’ll go look for him.”

”Yeah, Gong Yu alone probably wouldn’t go very far, and since he’s been isolated by everyone, he won’t go to crowded places either. Let’s start searching near the East Sea and gradually expand the search area.”

Today was the third day Zhou Jian and his companions had been searching for Gong Yu. They hadn’t held much hope, but from two kilometers away, they heard the sounds of the fight here and curiously ran over.

Zhou Jian recognized Wang Meng, also knowing his relationship with Xie Dong, and his heart sank with a premonition. Then he heard Wang Meng raise his sword and shout, ”Gong Yu, go to die!”

Immediately, Zhou Jian executed his Soul Skill, Tiger Claw, creating a shockwave that sent Wang Meng flying through the air, saving Gong Yu’s life.

Wang Meng rolled over and got up from the ice, spitting out a mouthful of blood, and seeing Zhou Jian, he yelled loudly,

”Zhou Jian, are you fucking crazy, meddling in my damn business?”

Zhou Jian gave a faint smile and said lightly,

”Wang Meng, mind your language.”

”F*ck, you sneak attack me and still tell me to watch my language? What the f*ck do you mean?”

Wang Meng had not anticipated that Zhou Jian from Dongli College would emerge to interfere midway. In his perception, there wasn’t much connection between Gong Yu and Zhou Jian.

Zhou Jian pointed at Gong Yu and said:

”Gong Yu is my friend’s brother, I’m determined to save him.”

”You,”

Wang Meng found it unbelievable and looked at Zhou Jian,

”Zhou Jian, make yourself clear. What do you mean? Gong Yu is our big brother Xie Dong’s enemy.”

”I’ve made myself very clear. Gong Yu is my friend’s brother, I’m determined to save him. As for his personal grudges with Xie Dong, that’s not my business. You can go back and tell Xie Dong directly. If he wants someone, he can come to Dongli College to find me.”

After speaking, Zhou Jian walked over to Gong Yu and asked:

”How’s it going? Can you still hold on?”

Gong Yu had taken two Small Blood Pills and was feeling much better, especially upon hearing about Yang Xiao, his inner desire to survive was reignited.

”Brother Zhou Jian, thank you. I want to know, how is Yang Xiao?”

”Don’t talk now, sit down and rest for 5 minutes, we’ll go back immediately. We can talk about everything once we get back to Dongli College.”

Gong Yu nodded and immediately focused on regulating his breathing.

Although Genetic Evolution doesn’t require the practice of circulating Qi and breathing, sitting down quietly to stabilize one’s breath is still beneficial for the recovery of Qi, especially after taking Small Blood Pills.

The bleeding at Gong Yu’s wound had stopped, and the wound was slowly healing.

After a short while, Gong Yu stood up and nodded to Zhou Jian.

”Alright, let’s go back.”

Gong Yu turned his head and glanced at the tuna in the ice cave with some reluctance.

Xi Hui laughed:

”It’s just a fish, right? Rest for a couple of days, then join us to go ice fishing.”

The major power teams from institutions like Dongli College had their own fishery areas in the Divine Sea, with thousands of people excavating ice blocks over an expanse of sea, methodically progressing. Hence, they could unearth much more Ice Fish resources than the average person.

This was the effectiveness of coordinated operations.

Gong Yu had no choice but to nod and follow Zhou Jian and the others as they left.

On the other side, after consuming two Small Blood Pills, Wang Meng’s injuries had somewhat improved. He shouted towards the retreating backs of Zhou Jian and the others:

”Zhou Jian, challenging our Ice River Academy like this, you will regret it.”

Xi Hui disdainfully glanced back and said,

”Heh, you think you and Xie Dong can represent Ice River Academy? You can go and complain to our King of Dongli College!”

After saying this, he turned and left.

Wang Meng was stunned, feeling quite bitter inside.

The ’King’ mentioned by Xi Hui was the current King of Magic City.

In terms of overall strength, Dongli College was now the number one power group in Magic City, with Ice River Academy being the second-tier power group.

The private ambush on Gong Yu by Xie Dong and Wang Meng was not something that could be brought to light.

Wang Meng covered his left eye, which no longer had an eyeball, grinding his teeth noisily.

He had not expected to lose three brothers, only for Gong Yu to be rescued by Zhou Jian in the end.

...

Global Financial Square soared into the clouds.

It was the only skyscraper in Magic City that survived. Almost all other buildings over a hundred meters tall had collapsed, and even with the entire city covered in heavy snow, the traces of the fallen skyscraper could still be seen.

Outside Global Financial Square stood a bizarre house that was over ten times larger than the Genetic Store in Nanmu City. This was the Genetic Store of Magic City.
