Upon receiving the signal, Wu Dahai immediately responded. After all, he always looked up to Wang Ziteng as a role model.
Bang!
Wu Dahai used his bulky body to charge at Zhao Hao, knocking him down to the ground.
Then, he and Wang Ziteng pushed Fang Huo out of the storage room and forcefully closed the door behind them.
At that moment, it was like there were two different worlds separated by the closed door.
Outside the door, Fang Huo stood alone at the entrance.
Inside the room, his colleagues were visible through a small window on the door, each with a distinct expression.
Zhao Hao seemed to have hit a piece of furniture when he fell and was now groaning in pain on the ground.
Meanwhile, Wang Ziteng and Wu Dahai were pressing against the door with fierce expressions.
The last person lowered his head and dared not look at the window.
Inside the room, Wang Ziteng shouted at Wu Dahai, "Seal the door tight. We must not let Fang Huo come in!"
"Don't worry, Wang Shao. This old wooden door may not be able to keep out ghosts, but it's sturdy enough to keep people out," Wu Dahai replied.
However, after a while of blocking the door, they realized that there was no force coming from outside. There was no sound of someone pounding or kicking the door either.
The two men looked at each other in confusion and then looked up at the small window.
Through the small window, they saw a white face with a smile on it, calmly staring back at them.
They instantly felt a chill down their spines.
"I thought I would never be interested in people again, but sometimes, people can be much more interesting than ghosts. Hahaha," Fang Huo's voice came through the old wooden door, carrying a strange and eerie tone. Although the words he spoke were inexplicable, the ominous meaning behind them made the two men feel a sense of foreboding.
Just then, they heard the sound of cracking.
"A female doctor has appeared."
The familiar voice was like the call of the Grim Reaper, causing Wang Ziteng and others in the cluttered room to hold their breaths in fear, afraid to draw the attention of the eerie presence.
Even though they knew the female doctor's modus operandi, the sight of the eerie presence still instinctively made them afraid.
Of course, Fang Hui also heard the voice, but he didn't even turn his head, still smiling as he looked at Wang Ziteng and the other person, as if trying to remember their faces.
The next moment.
Swish!
A silver light flashed, and Fang Hui's head fell heavily to the ground.
"Now is the time, run!" Wang Ziteng shouted, pushing open the door and running outside.
As he fled, he subconsciously looked back at Fang Hui's head.
He saw that the face of the severed head still wore a smile, and the calm eyes silently watched him.
Wang Ziteng felt his heart almost stop, and he fled the scene without looking back.
A cold, slippery sensation came from Fang Hui's palm.
The sight of his slender, pale thigh caught his eye.
"Back again." Fang Hui murmured to himself, and the next moment, a strange smile appeared on his lips.
The narrative has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the infringement.
The smile flashed by so quickly that even Zhao Hao next to him didn't see it.
Just like in a TV drama replay, Fang Hui didn't do anything different from the last time he rewound time. He replicated everything he did during the last rewind, touching his thigh, running, and going down the stairs.
The light on the stairs was dim, and the darkness was like some kind of tangible particles floating in the air.
Fang Hui led Zhao Hao to run down the stairs, one floor, two floors, three floors...
Before long, they heard a dense sound of footsteps ahead.
Soon after, a scream could be heard.
"The anomaly! The anomaly is catching up!"
As before, Fang Xiu leaped down the stairs and landed on the next floor, where he finally met up with Wang Ziteng and the others.
"It's Fang Xiu and Zhao Hao! You scared me, I thought the anomaly caught up," one colleague gasped.
Zhao Hao looked at everyone in surprise and asked, "Why are you guys so slow?"
"Slow? We've gone down at least twenty floors. But how did you guys run so fast?" someone else replied.
The conversation continued as before.
"The anomaly broke through the wall! It must have broken through the wall!"
Wang Ziteng began to explain about the anomaly breaking through walls, but before he could finish, there was a loud bang and the door opened.
And there stood Fang Xiu, calmly standing in front of the door.
Wang Ziteng was stunned, as were the others. What happened to the anomaly breaking through walls? How did they suddenly find the exit?
But they didn't think much about it and rushed towards the door.
The group quickly arrived at the crossroads and stopped in their tracks.
"Fang Xiu, have you awakened your spirit?" Wang Ziteng asked with a complicated expression.
As soon as he spoke, everyone's eyes focused on Fang Xiu.
They had been listening to Wang Ziteng talk about how only spirit masters could fight anomalies and how only those who awakened their spirits could become spirit masters.
Now, hearing Wang Ziteng ask Fang Xiu this question, they all felt a glimmer of hope for survival.
It's no wonder Wang Ziteng asked this way, since Fang Xiu's approach to breaking through the anomaly wall this time was different from last time. Last time he had to fumble around, but this time he went straight to the door and opened it.
So Wang Ziteng mistakenly believed that Fang Xu relied on his spiritual perception to locate the door's position.
Faced with the complex and expectant gazes of the crowd, Fang Xu did not immediately answer, but took out his phone and glanced at the time.
Then he looked up and said, "One minute, the Gui will appear in one minute."
The crowd was instantly shocked.
"You actually know the exact time the Gui will appear, it seems that you have really become a spiritual master, Fang Xu, as long as you can take me out of the Gui domain, I will give you five million!" Wang Ziteng said urgently.
"Fang Xu, please take us to escape quickly."
"You must know which way to choose, as long as you take us out, we will definitely repay you."
At this moment, Fang Xu shook his head and calmly said, "No rush."
His simple "no rush" statement was enough to drive everyone crazy.
"Before leaving, I have one more thing to do."
Wu Dahai was so angry that he almost cursed out, "What can be more important than escaping for our lives?"
"Ah!!!"
A extremely shrill scream echoed throughout the room, interrupting Wu Dahai's words.
At this moment, everyone looked at Fang Xu, who was slowly retracting his foot, and Wang Ziteng, who was still lying on the ground in a shrimp-like shape.
Wang Ziteng's face was distorted, his complexion turned red, his veins bulged, and he couldn't stop shaking. One after another shrill screams came out of his mouth.
Everyone looked at him, and it seemed that they could hear the sound of eggs cracking.
"You, you, ah, ah, ah!" Wang Ziteng was in so much pain that he couldn't even utter a complete sentence.
As a lackey, Wu Dahai reacted and angrily questioned Fang Xu, "Fang Xu! What are you doing! Why did you suddenly kick someone!"
The other colleagues also echoed.
"Yes, why did you hit someone for no reason!"
No one had expected that Fang Xu would suddenly strike, and with such force. Even the person involved, Wang Ziteng, could not have foreseen it.
He would never understand why he had been kicked after offering five million. Did Fang Xu think it was too little? If so, why not just say so?
Fang Xu offered an explanation. "This inexplicable speed exceeds that of humans, so when one minute is up, someone is bound to die. Now that Wang Ziteng has lost his ability to move, it will be him who dies. So, I'm saving you all."
Save us?
Everyone was stunned. They could not fathom why Fang Xu had resorted to violence.
Without giving anyone time to react, Fang Xu kicked again.
The next second, another anguished scream rang out. This time, it was Wu Dahai who fell.
He fell in the same way as Wang Ziteng, clutching his crotch and screaming in agony. However, his ability to endure pain was clearly inferior to Wang Ziteng's. After two screams of agony, he fainted.
It was well known that a man's weakest spot was his crotch. Fang Xu had not held back at all, kicking with full force, shattering it completely.
Therefore, both Wang Ziteng and Wu Dahai were definitely unable to move for a short period of time.
Everyone was completely stunned this time. Fang Xu had inexplicably and unexpectedly kicked and severely injured Wang Ziteng and Wu Dahai.
"Fang brother, what are you doing?" Zhao Hao instinctively took a few steps back from Fang Xu, his hands involuntarily clutching his crotch.
The others also looked at Fang Xu with wary and questioning eyes.
"Fang Xu, what are you trying to do? You attacked Wang Ziteng to save us, but what about attacking Wu Dahai?" One colleague angrily questioned him.
No one wanted to be around someone who would unexpectedly attack them without warning, especially with such a vicious attack that could lead to extinction.
Fang Xu remained calm in the face of everyone's questioning and said, "Leave one as a backup."
