# Chapter 752: Miracles Will Always Come

After traveling underground for nearly an hour, the sensory-type spirit warriors investigated!

Having completely distanced themselves from the beast horde and confirmed safety!

Jiangnan casually threw out a Void Black Hole and created several underground shelters!

"You guys detox first and keep watch. I'll go up top to contact home and ask about the situation!"

Just as he was about to leave, he saw Heidi come running over with a pleading look: "Nan Shen, could you ask where the Fish Country explorers who escaped to the seventh layer are?"

Jiangnan paused, then grinned: "Sure!"

With that, he teleported away in an instant and surfaced directly above ground!

This place was still a barren plain covered in bite marks, with no trace of the Eating Beasts around!

Jiang Digger got straight to work, spamming Void Black Holes and starting to graffiti the ground!

(・᷄ꇴ・᷅)☛(。₎˘•~•˘) Poke!

You there?

With the graffiti done, Jiangnan planted his little hands on his hips and stood on the face of the emoji, waiting for a reply!

At that moment, the Capital Abyss Laboratory was in an uproar!

(⌯꒪3꒪) Pfft~

"Sister Menglu! Look at District 17, there's an emoji appearing!"

"It's Nan Shen! He's standing right at the nose-and-face position!"

Was this the legendary "climbing on the nose and face"?

Han Menglu's eyes sparkled with excitement. This actually worked? Little brother Jiangnan, are you a genius?

She quickly used her core ability to respond. Stone strips rose from the ground, forming strokes that composed words!

"Here! Monitoring closely. Hurry and rescue the exploration team. They've been besieged by the beast horde for half a month. Major crisis!"

Jiangnan raised his hand and released a Spatial Barrier, sitting high in the sky as he continued graffiti with Void Black Holes!

"Brief intel!"

Han Menglu quickly stood up and called out: "Transfer all the staff from the two adjacent labs over to me!"

"Condense the text and combine it as fast as possible! Hurry!"

Instantly, the lab staff began bustling about, hundreds of people going all out to support Jiangnan's rescue operation!

Lines of text appeared on the plain, and only then did Jiangnan get a general understanding of the situation on the seventh layer!

The Abyss anomaly had appeared over a month ago!

Since the Barren Hill Fortress had only been under construction for half a year, its defenses weren't complete. Coupled with the frenzy of the spirit beasts!

Within a week of the incident, it had already been breached!

The exploration team abandoned the fortress and began to evacuate. While avoiding the beast tide's impact, they also had to resist the erosion of the Original Sin, making their situation unbearable!

Thanks to the home base using the core to monitor the beast horde's positions and provide intel in real time!

They kept relocating temporary shelters, and the first two weeks went relatively smoothly with minimal casualties!

But within those two weeks, the spirit beasts had already gnawed the seventh layer bare!

The exploration team became the only meat attracting the Eating Beasts and naturally suffered a massive siege!

Casualties skyrocketed. They could only hold out in underground shelters, and with the corruption of the Gluttony Original Sin, their situation was incredibly dire!

Keep in mind, the exploration team trapped on the seventh layer numbered over a thousand people. After the seventh layer was gnawed bare, even basic necessities like food, drink, and waste disposal were a problem.

God knows how they managed to hold on, and now they were facing a beast tide siege!

Jiangnan's expression grew serious. The situation was far worse than he had imagined!

He quickly graffiti: "Location info!"

In the lab, the staff was just about to operate!

Han Menglu stood up, her expression resolute: "Let me do it. Little brother Jiangnan and the others are fighting for their lives in the Abyss!"

"The only thing we can do is provide them with the best support!"

As she spoke, she took a helmet from the workbench, one covered with densely packed fiber optic cables and signal lines!

Han Menglu put it on her head directly, pushing her brainwaves to the extreme!

The liquid in the core vessel seemed to boil at that moment!

Countless runes on the core lit up with spiritual light!

Han Menglu's pretty face flushed red, and her brain began to bleed from the nose due to overload!

Meanwhile, on the seventh layer's plain, the earth and stone twisted!

Slowly, a giant sand table began to form!

It presented almost the entire terrain map of the seventh layer!

Marked on it were the positions of all beast hordes, Jiangnan's own location, and the location of the exploration team's temporary shelter!

Even the entrance to the eighth layer's spatial gate was marked in detail, at a scale of one to one hundred thousand!

Jiangnan's eyes widened in shock!

She had directly created a real-time map of the seventh layer? Who was manipulating the core?

How many calculations and micro-operations did that take to achieve?

How could she be this strong?

He hurriedly pulled out his phone and photographed the map details!

Then he replied: "Massive help. Is that Sister Menglu?"

Han Menglu wiped away her nosebleed and gave a brilliant smile!

(๐•̀ᴗ•́): "Guessed right. Reward when you get back!"

"So bring everyone back alive!"

Jiangnan grinned!

ᕙ(๐՞ٹ՞)☞

"Leave it to me!"

With that, he teleported and vanished from the surface!

Back in the lab, everyone stared at Han Menglu as if she were a goddess!

In the entire world, probably only Han Menglu could manipulate the core to this extent!

Looking back at the plain, it was now covered in text and emojis...

Red Dragon covered her face: "So a spirit ruin can actually be used as a chat app?"

Nightingale snickered: "Yeah, but the chat screen is a bit huge!"

After that, Han Menglu used the core to delete all the "chat history" on the plain!

Back in the underground shelter, everyone had finished detoxifying, but Heidi was looking over with hopeful eyes!

Jiangnan hesitated, then said: "I asked. The Fish Country explorers who fled to the seventh layer were attacked by the beast horde. Almost all wiped out!"

"The remaining dozen or so were guided by Sister Menglu to the temporary shelter of the Huaxia exploration team. I don't know if they're still alive..."

Heidi's expression crumbled like a thunderbolt, tears streaming down her cheeks like broken pearls!

(☍﹏⁰。)

"H-How... how could this be!"

The other Fish Country personnel also looked dejected!

Jiangnan announced loudly: "The Huaxia exploration team's temporary underground shelter is currently under siege by the beast horde. Situation critical!"

"Everyone, prepare for battle. We're launching a rescue immediately!"

Ling Feng and the others nodded, quickly mounted the giant centipedes, and prepared to set off!

Jiangnan turned back: "Next, we're likely to face a direct clash with the beast horde. It's dangerous. Are you still coming?"

Adams grinned fiercely: "We're going to save people. Our people are trapped in there too. A dozen lives are still lives!"

Jiangnan raised an eyebrow in surprise: "Oh? You barely pass as human!"

Adams gritted his steel teeth, turned his head away, and sneered coldly.

[From Adams: Resentment Value +1000!]

The group set off again. Using the map Han Menglu had provided, they burrowed straight toward the exploration team's location from underground!

...

At a bald rocky mountain!

A loud buzzing sound traveled far and wide!

The sky was filled with countless Flying Knife Silver Locusts, an appalling number, each the size of a calf!

They swam through the air like sardine schools in the ocean, currently launching a frenzied attack on a hundred-man team on the ground!

Meat tanks on the outside, ranged attackers in the center, with both offense and defense covered!

The melee fighters took the opportunity to dash out, pulling back the corpses of Silver Locusts they had killed, carrying them on their backs!

Everyone was wounded, faces haggard!

Leading them was a woman at Diamond 8 stars, her purple hair very eye-catching!

But she was gaunt, with sunken eyes and sallow skin, looking like she might collapse at any moment!

One of her hands had transformed into an ironwood spear, shooting out like arrows, killing countless Silver Locusts!

Her other hand extended countless vines, trying to pull back the Silver Locust corpses!

But those corpses, even before hitting the ground, were devoured clean!

She could barely retrieve a few!

With anxiety filling her eyes, she turned back: "How many did we get?"

Someone replied: "Captain Ye Zi, 27! Six people dead!"

Ye Zi clenched her teeth: "Retreat! Don't fight!"

A stocky crew-cut man exclaimed anxiously: "27 isn't enough to eat, Captain. We—"

But in that brief moment, a Diamond-ranked Flying Knife Silver Locust took advantage of the chaos and charged in, speeding to Ye Zi's side at incredible speed!

Its wings sliced through the air like flying knives, cutting a bloody gash across Ye Zi's abdomen, blood splattering!

She was nearly cut in half!

Holding her stomach, Ye Zi spat out a mouthful of blood and turned back urgently: "Watch out!"

But that Silver Locust had already plunged into the formation, tearing open the outer defensive line and snatching two meat tanks into the sky!

The screams stopped abruptly!

In less than a second, even their bodies were gone!

Countless Silver Locusts, like flying knives, exploited the breach and rushed in, killing several more!

The scent of blood spread, and hundreds upon thousands of Silver Locusts dove down, even blotting out the entire sky!

Ye Zi's face was desperate. She tried to use a spirit technique!

But her spiritual energy was completely depleted. Blood loss left her face pale, her mind dizzy!

Looking at the swarm of Silver Locusts dancing in the sky, her eyes were filled with despair!

Was this the end?

I've done my best to hold on this long!

Enough...

At least I was worthy of myself!

At that moment, Ye Zi slowly closed her eyes, her body leaning back!

But just then, a figure appeared abruptly behind Ye Zi!

Gently, it wrapped an arm around her shoulder, catching her ethereal body!

So warm...

That was the only thought in Ye Zi's mind. Confused, she opened her eyes and saw Jiangnan's profile!

Ye Zi froze, tears instantly flooding her eyes!

Jiangnan: "Never give up hope of survival until the very last moment!"

"As long as you're not dead, no matter how miserable you are, you have to struggle with all your might!"

"Because miracles will always come!"

"You've done well enough. Leave the rest to me!"
