He emerged from the collapsed building carrying another unconscious girl.

At this moment, a tall boy in the plaza said, "I'll help too!"

Jiang Chen didn't speak and placed the unconscious girl on the playground.

He went to save the next person.

"My Supernatural Ability might be useful!"

A girl in a short skirt walked out, stood beneath the collapsed building, and said, "Supernatural Ability activate - Reinforce!"

Applying the Reinforce Supernatural Ability to the teaching building consumed a lot of her own Supernatural Ability.

She only lasted a short while before becoming a bit weak.

The girl with two braids standing beside her ran over and said, "Yin Zhuang, you're physically weak. Overusing your Supernatural Ability will shorten your lifespan."

"Wei Sheng, my Supernatural Ability can temporarily reinforce this building, giving them more time to rescue classmates still inside who haven't gotten out."

"I'm fine!"

Yin Zhuang...

It was her, the mysterious, cursed girl rumored to have awakened hundreds of Supernatural Abilities. Awakening too many Supernatural Abilities put too much strain on her body, and overusing them would consume her lifespan.

Jiang Chen was just about to go save someone else.

He happened to hear their conversation.

He paused for a moment, then walked up to Yin Zhuang and said, "This is a Restoration Potion. I hope it helps."

Yin Zhuang said thank you and swallowed the Restoration Potion.

After drinking it, she felt an incredible change in her weakened body.

It felt like she had an inexhaustible supply of strength.

Supernatural Ability flowed out continuously, yet her body felt no discomfort.

This high-grade Restoration Potion worked wonders.

Where did this Jiang Chen get such an effective Restoration Potion?

This kind of Restoration Potion surpassed the effects of high-grade potions.

One bottle was worth at least one hundred thousand Purple Gold Coins.

Keep in mind that high-grade potions already cost seventy thousand Purple Gold Coins.

Over the years, she had consumed many Restoration Potions due to her condition and was naturally very aware of their prices.

If not for her special identity and her family's deep pockets, she truly couldn't afford such expensive Restoration Potions.

After all, on the battlefield, an extra bottle of high-grade potion meant an extra life.

A life's value couldn't be measured in money.

Therefore, the price of high-grade potions had been steadily increasing over the years.

Potions better than high-grade potions were even more outrageously expensive.

She had tried them before, but their effects were only slightly better than high-grade potions.

There were no significant improvements.

Yet, the Restoration Potion Jiang Chen casually produced allowed her to feel such a massive change.

This was simply unbelievable.

For a moment, Yin Zhuang was stunned.

From what she knew of Jiang Chen, he had no background or connections, just an ordinary commoner in this city.

How could someone like him get his hands on such a potent Restoration Potion?

Yin Zhuang couldn't figure it out.

Meanwhile, Wei Sheng saw Yin Zhuang's complexion return to normal and asked with concern, "Yin Zhuang, how are you now?"

Wei Sheng's words interrupted Yin Zhuang's thoughts. She looked at Jiang Chen, who had already rushed back in to save people, and replied, "I'm fine, I can still hold on!"

"Good, I'll stay with you. If anything happens, you must tell me."

Saying that, Wei Sheng stood beside Yin Zhuang, guarding her like a bodyguard.

"We can't let Jiang Chen and the others steal the spotlight. My Supernatural Ability should be useful too!"

A very arrogant red-haired young man spoke up.

He stood in front of the collapsed building, muttering, "Supernatural Ability - Activate!"

"Space Magic!"

With that, the red-haired man opened a portal and began to enter to rescue people!

With him taking the lead, more and more people stepped forward, saying, "My Supernatural Ability might also be useful!!"

"Supernatural Ability - Activate!"

"Life Totem!"

A man in white athletic wear said, "My Supernatural Ability lets me see the lifeblood diagram of life!"

"Do you see these white dots? They indicate signs of life!"

"When you go inside, follow the Life Totem's guidance to rescue people!"

As he spoke, the man in white athletic wear shared the Life Totem with the students who were going inside to rescue people!

Something like a map appeared in their minds, with light spots flickering in different locations!

After receiving the Life Totem, everyone nodded and said, "I'll go left!"

"I'll go right!"

"I'll go through the middle!"

"I'll go underground, my Shadow Supernatural Ability should be useful!"

With that, several people scattered and began the rescue.

"Classmate Yin Zhuang, I'll help you!"

A girl walked up to Yin Zhuang and said!

Yin Zhuang glanced at the girl who spoke and said, "Thank you!"

"It's nothing. My Earth Spirit Supernatural Ability can summon Earth Spirits to temporarily stabilize the foundation here. But this is my first time using it on such a large scale, so I don't know if it will succeed!"

The girl said shyly.

She walked to Yin Zhuang's side, spread her hands, and chanted, "Supernatural Ability - Activate!"

"Summon - Earth Spirit!"

A small, earth-yellow figure floated in the air.

The shy girl gave the little earth-yellow figure a command: "Stabilize the ground here."

The little yellow figure nodded adorably and burrowed into the ground.

When Jiang Chen emerged again, he saw many people who had been rescued by others.

Fatty was not among them.

He didn't show anything on his face, but he was anxious inside.

Fatty was so weak; he didn't know if something had happened to him.

But now wasn't the time to think about that.

The most crucial thing was to rescue Fatty and the others.

Thinking this, Jiang Chen rushed back in to save the next person.

As people were rescued one by one, there was no longer any Spiritual Network connecting to Jiang Chen within the collapsed building.

The Life Totem of the man in the white athletic wear showed no more signs of life in the collapsed building.

Among the people rescued, there was no sign of Fatty.

Could it be that Fatty... he had already...

Zhang Banxian clearly couldn't accept this outcome. Standing beside Jiang Chen, he cried for the first time, "Uncle-Master Jiang, why can't we save Fatty even though we tried so hard!"

Song Yiyi heard the crying. She wiped the sweat from her forehead and, following the sound, saw Jiang Chen and a crying Zhang Banxian.

She vaguely heard them mention Fatty.

She knew Fatty and Jiang Chen had a very close relationship.

Now that everyone else had been rescued, only Fatty was missing.

This was a significant blow to Jiang Chen.

She wanted to go and comfort him.

But what right did she have to comfort him?

She wasn't anyone to Jiang Chen, not even a friend.

Even if she wanted to comfort him, Jiang Chen wouldn't accept it, right?

Thinking this, Song Yiyi let out a self-deprecating laugh.

She felt an unspeakable bitterness in her heart.

Song Yiyi's guess was correct; Jiang Chen felt like killing someone right now.

He couldn't listen to anyone.

The thought that Fatty's death was caused by his own mistake made him unable to accept this reality...

If it weren't for the Principal falling to the demons, none of this would have happened today.

Why should someone else's mistakes be paid for with other people's lives? He lost his best friend because of it.

Fatty...

I'm sorry!!!

Jiang Chen really wanted to cry. Just as tears were about to fall.

Omniscience appeared!!!
