Fear of food

Chapter 71 First Aid!

Chen Qi had no idea when or how Xia Huiyun had gotten behind him.

They also had more than a dozen awakened corpses on their side, but no one gave him a warning.

In that critical moment, Chen Qi's adrenaline surged, and he quickly grabbed Xia Huiyun's falling hand.

However, he greatly underestimated Xia Huiyun's power!

That seemingly slender arm possessed tremendous power. Even when Chen Qi unleashed strength beyond his limits, he couldn't catch it, only managing to deflect her arm slightly.

The needle that was originally aimed at Chen Qi's head ended up landing on his shoulder.

"Hiss... Ah!"

Chen Qi gasped in shock, then cried out in pain.

The needle pricked him so badly he almost flew off his feet. A piercing pain shot from his shoulder straight to his bone marrow, making his whole body tremble uncontrollably.

It was as if he hadn't just been pricked in the shoulder with a needle, but rather had his entire arm chopped off.

"This injection is strange! It definitely has a pain-sensing effect!"

Xia Huiyun pulled out the syringe and was about to give Chen Qi another injection in the head.

Chen Qi didn't even dare to imagine how much pain he would feel if that needle were stuck in his head.

Despite feeling so much pain that he wished he could fly away, Chen Qi immediately rolled away to dodge.

At this point, the entire laboratory was in complete chaos.

"Oh no, the critically ill patients have all woken up!"

"Quick! First aid!"

"Activate the emergency plan! Quickly, get the first aid equipment!"

Other teachers and students also put down their rescue work and, from who knows which cabinet, pulled out first aid tools such as electric drills, chainsaws, hammers, and axes, and rushed towards the awakened patients.

These patients were clearly terrified by the group of teachers and students; upon seeing them, they lost all will to fight and fled in panic.

Some people were running around in the lab, while others ran straight out of the lab.

Although no one came to help Chen Qi, their presence diverted other teachers and students, which was already the greatest help for Chen Qi.

Let alone the patients, Chen Qi himself had no fighting spirit at this moment.

He had just suffered a loss, which made him realize that the old nurse Xia Huiyun was no match for him!
After dodging the second needle, he staggered to his feet and ran forward. Xia Huiyun chased after him closely and quickly caught up, stabbing Chen Qi with another needle.

Chen Qishun pulled over a corpse from the autopsy table to use as a shield to block the needles.

The thick needle pierced the corpse's chest, and the corpse suddenly opened its eyes, actually being awakened by the pain!

Chen Qi looked at them and realized that they were one of the two suspected officials!
He couldn't wake up no matter what he did, but Xia Huiyun woke him up with a single needle prick.

As expected, rescue work should be done by professionals!
Seeing this, Chen Qi continued to use the official's older brother as a human shield while retreating to the dissection table next to him.

Then he suddenly threw the human shield in his hand onto Xia Huiyun, and casually picked up another person who was still dead and suspected to be an official.

Xia Huiyun only had eyes for Chen Qi. She casually tossed aside the human shield that Chen Qi had thrown at her and then stabbed him with another needle.

The needle struck Chen Qi's new human shield, and unsurprisingly, it also woke him up in pain.

"Damn, that hurts!" the man cursed in a daze. Before he could even react to what was happening, Chen Qi threw him out.

Chen Qi continued to flee, grabbing a thin female corpse and carrying it on his back as a human shield to prevent Xia Huiyun from stabbing him from behind.

As he ran, Chen Qi pondered.

As a pagan, he was undoubtedly weakened in this illusion.

He can't use his grimoire cookies and baguettes anymore.

But parasites like Xia Huiyun seem to have been weakened as well!

Although Xia Huiyun possessed immense strength, she showed no abnormal state from beginning to end, as did the other teachers and students, who remained in human form throughout.

Moreover, I haven't seen them using the field.

Although he still seems invincible at the moment, everyone has at least been weakened, which gives Chen Qi some room to struggle and survive. Moreover, Chen Qi can feel that the power enhancement he gained from eating high-grade food is still there, but he can't unleash it against the stronger Xia Huiyun.

"My goal is to push open that door!"

Chen Qi knew very well that as long as he didn't escape the illusion, he couldn't be truly safe.

He didn't dare gamble; if he died in the illusion, would he also die in reality?
Even now, he wasn't 100% sure whether this was an illusion or not.

Pushing open that door and finding a way to escape the illusion was his only option!

He ran straight to the end of the laboratory.

Chen Qi's running speed was no match for Xia Huiyun's, and the further he ran, the darker the environment became, which also affected his speed.

Fortunately, there were still a few lights on in the darkness, which were the lights that Chen Qi had turned on when he woke up the patient.

Seeing that Xia Huiyun was about to catch up, Chen Qi had no choice but to shout for help: "Quickly help me stop her, I know a way out!"

This is where the difference between official and non-official personnel becomes apparent.

The others who were awakened by Chen Qi only cared about escaping and ignored him.

Moreover, their situation was indeed precarious. Chen Qi personally witnessed someone having their head smashed by a hammer by a student who caught up with them, and someone being cut in half by a chainsaw.

Under the hands of these teachers and students armed with first aid tools, the patients awakened by Chen Qi were powerless to resist.

The two people who appeared to be officials, despite being unarmed, were able to outmaneuver the teachers and students chasing them with their exceptional skills. After hearing Chen Qi's cries for help, they even took the initiative to approach Chen Qi, preparing to rescue him.

The two men caught up and kept harassing Xia Huiyun from behind. One of them even pounced on her and grabbed her in a hug.

Another person picked up a corpse and smashed it against Xia Huiyun.

Xia Huiyun's needle occasionally pricked the two of them, causing them to squeal in pain, but they stubbornly refused to back down.

With the help of these two, Chen Qicai was not caught. He ran towards the light and found a flashlight on a table when he reached the first lit area.

This must be the flashlight that Bian Zihan used before. Chen Qi picked it up to provide light.

With a flashlight, he could see the road ahead, and his speed immediately increased significantly.

"come on! Come on!"

"Run faster!"

The flashlight beam shone directly onto the door at the far end of the laboratory, marking the direction Chen Qi should go.

However, this also meant revealing Chen Qi's intentions to others.

Xia Huiyun's expression changed, and with a roar, she shook off the two people who were clinging to her like leeches, and charged straight at Chen Qi like a tyrannical dragon.

She ignored all obstacles in her path, crashing through countless dissection tables and corpses, and charged straight at Chen Qi.

"rush!"

Chen Qi roared inwardly, increasing the frequency of his strides to the limit, aiming for the greatest distance with each step, his eyes fixed solely on that door!
The two officials got up and watched this scene. There was nothing they could do but silently cheer for Chen Qi.

"Run!"

"Run!"

"Run out of this illusion!"

Xia Huiyun, holding a syringe, drew closer and closer behind him, like a tank about to catch up with and crush Chen Qi, while the door grew larger and larger in Chen Qi's vision.

"Break it for me!"

Seeing that he was about to be caught up, Chen Qi leaped up and launched himself out like a cannonball, crashing into the door.

boom!
Chen Qi slammed into the door, but the door, which had only opened a crack, moved back slightly, making the crack a little bigger.

Ignoring the pain in his body, Chen Qi was not surprised by this and immediately rolled to the side to avoid Xia Huiyun who was crashing into him from behind.

Another loud bang rang out...

The door that Chen Qi couldn't break down was broken open by Xia Huiyun.
