I Am Unstoppable

Chapter 276

Jonathan glanced at the blood trail on the deck that was made when he moved Lyle's body earlier.

That was the same blood trail he saw with Tate and the others previously.

I can't believe the same situation repeated itself.

Jonathan inhaled sharply. He promptly decided to break the rules instead of playing by them.

A while later, the same bunch of people arrived at the ship.

Jonathan waited at the corridor patiently.

His other self led Tate, Lyle, and Dante onto the deck.

The sun was still shining brightly at that moment.

Jonathan took a glance at his watch and realized it was eight sharp.

Another time loop has begun.

“Good morning, everyone!” Jonathan went to them and flashed a warm smile.

The rest halted in their tracks when they saw him as though he was a ghost.

His other self was staring at him in disbelief, for they were the replica of each other.

“What on earth is going on? Who are you?” his other self asked, horrified.

Jonathan shot him a bitter smile. “It's a long story. Please be patient and listen to me.”

His other self and the others nodded, for they were too eager to know what had happened.

Jonathan said, “So, this was what happened...”

He explained everything about the time loop to them and brought them to where Lyle's bodies were floating on the ocean. He also led them to the deck to see Tate's and Dante's bodies.

After that, Jonathan asked, “You believe me now, right?”

Everyone was standing in front of the stack of bodies.

Tate and Dante couldn't explain how strange it felt to see tons of their dead bodies in front of them.

Jonathan could finally heave a sigh of relief. After all, he had broken the rules instead of doing the same thing in the time loop.

They all walked away from the pile of dead bodies and came to the living room.

The food in the living room was rotten and couldn't be eaten.

“What should we do now?” Jonathan's other self asked.

Jonathan answered solemnly, “We can take the lifeboat and try to arrive at the coast to return to

Horington.”

His other self wasn't as optimistic. “I don't think that will happen.”

Jonathan insisted, “But we should at least try.”

His other self nodded. “Okay, then.”

Tate, Dante, and Lyle didn't have any objections.

They soon got onto a lifeboat together.

After the lifeboat was lowered to the sea, they rowed toward shore.

They should be seventy nautical miles away from Horington. It might be hard to row all the way back, but the journey was still manageable.

Jonathan and his other self were powerful enough, so they rowed forcefully until the lifeboat was traveling as fast as a swordfish.

After rowing for three hours, the sea remained calm. There was no change, and no boats appeared in sight.

Suddenly, Tate blurted out, “I think the sun didn't change at all. Have you realized it? Time seemed to have stopped.”

Hearing that, everyone grew wary.

At once, Jonathan and his other self raised their arms to look at their watches.

Jonathan was shocked to discover that his watch stopped ticking after they left Liberty.

His other self had the same reaction, too.

“Our efforts are futile.” Suddenly, his other self's gaze turned dark. “Time came to a stop after we left Liberty. Even if we continue paddling for a hundred years, we will never arrive at Horington.”

Jonathan agreed with his other self's words. He felt utterly helpless in the situation.

It was impossible to solve the problem with violence as he didn't even know who his enemy was.

Thus, it was useless for him to get angry.

Who could the enemy be? Is it my destiny, fate, or God?

Jonathan finally realized that he could never break the time loop.

His other self fell into deep thought.

Tate, Dante, and Lyle were trembling in fear.

“Why are there so many dead bodies over there?” Suddenly, Lyle pointed at somewhere in the south.

Tons of bodies were floating on the ocean quietly.

They immediately rowed their lifeboat in that direction.

The lifeboat soon got closer, allowing them to get a clearer look.

The sight before them caused them to gape incredulously.

The bodies scattered on the sea were all Tate, Dante, and Lyle.

“Why are there bodies here, too?” Jonathan was confused.

At the same time, his other self, who had been silent the entire time, took action.

The man swung out both his fists to kill Tate and Lyle instantly.

He then lunged toward Dante.

Dante was no match for him, and he was about to succeed. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

Jonathan took action in a flash and used the Dragon Claw Grab to grab his other self's wrist.

His other self shook his wrist up and down to dodge Jonathan's attack. His other self then gave Dante a kick.

“Stop!” A gun appeared in Jonathan's hand, aiming at his other self.

Jonathan declared coldly, “I'll kill you if you dare to make a move.”

His other self snorted. “What's the difference between living and dying? I'd rather die so I can experience other stuff.”

Jonathan was stunned. “We are both one. I can't bear to kill my friends, but why are you so cruel? What changed your character? Or are you not me?”

Something glinted across his other self's eyes before he said, “A thought appears in a flash. I had that thought, so I killed them. What can that prove? What about you? Why are you so stubborn? You should let me kill you so you can start the time loop again.”

Jonathan shook his head. “No, you're wrong!” Something feels amiss.

Suddenly, Jonathan pinned his other self with a withering look as he demanded, “You're not me. Are you Orcus? Did you create an illusion to kill me?”

Surprise flashed across his other self's eyes. He chuckled icily and replied, “You're indeed smart. Yes, you're right. I'm not you. However, you're also wrong, for I am not Orcus.”

“I am!” Dante's voice rang out without warning.

A tiny whip sword suddenly stabbed into Jonathan's back without him realizing it.

He felt a chill go down his spine as pain flared up his chest.

Blood flowed down his body freely.

Jonathan let out an anguished roar as he knew he was going to die soon.

Suddenly, his other self delivered a kick that sent him tumbling into the sea.

Jonathan descended into darkness. There was a moment when he felt that he was back in his mother's womb.

It hurts! I want nothing more than to fall asleep and never wake up again.

Jonathan sank into the sea and gradually lost his senses.

Roar!

After what seemed like forever, Jonathan suddenly regained consciousness.

His eyes snapped open as he trembled violently.

I remember everything. I remember how I died.

“Mr. Lawson? Did you have a nightmare?” a familiar voice asked.

Jonathan peered in the direction of the voice and realized he was on a private plane.

The person talking to him was none other than Dante.

“Orcus?” Horrified, Jonathan immediately put his guard up.

Dante was baffled. “Orcus? What is that? Mr. Lawson, I don't understand what you're talking about.”

“No, no!” Jonathan began sorting out his thoughts. He suddenly recalled an important question.

“Where are we now? Where are we heading?”

Dante's confusion heightened as he replied, “We're flying above Horington to head to sea in search of Briana Yarbrough as per your request, Mr. Lawson. Is something wrong?”

Pain appeared in Jonathan's gaze. Is this another time loop? I'm going to arrive at Briana's yacht soon, and Dante's private plane will explode. Briana's yacht will then be overturned by the tsunami. Everyone will board Liberty once again, and history will repeat itself. Briana must be Orcus. Orcus isn't a person but is a form of will that can appear on anyone. Perhaps everyone besides me is Orcus!

Jonathan shut his eyes and fell silent, for he knew his efforts would be in vain.

Not long after, Dante reminded him, “Mr. Lawson, the yacht is right beneath us.”

Jonathan nodded. “Got it!” He leaped out of the private plane and landed on the yacht's deck.

Dante then sent him a message saying there was a problem with the plane, so he needed to turn around.

Jonathan remained unfazed. “Sure.”

The private plane flew for some distance before bursting into flames.

Jonathan didn't bother saving Dante and entered the living room.

Briana was sitting inside the living room, clad in a wedding gown.

She looked indifferent and cool.

Jonathan took a seat across from her calmly. “Why are you wearing a wedding gown? Is Orcus marrying someone? Is Orcus female?”

Briana looked at him. “It looks like you've discovered many things.”

Jonathan replied, “No matter how much I know, it's useless.”

Briana said, “You can give up instead of continuing the struggle. That way, you'll feel better. After all, this is your destiny.”

Jonathan demanded, “Why am I here? Is my consciousness here while my body is somewhere else?”

“The first time you and Dante came here, you didn't leave the plane and died in the explosion. However, your consciousness refused to believe that you're dead and continued doing those stuff. You're already dead,” came Briana's answer.

Jonathan snickered icily. “That isn't funny at all. If I'm dead, you don't have to go this far. You went this far so I will think it's my destiny and stop struggling. If I believe I'm dead, I might die for real. It's similar to Gabriel's Curb of Kismet. Do you think I will give up easily? Don't underestimate me.”
