Chapter 305: Chapter 305: The Door of Xu HuoThe bandage monster that flew out knocked over another one. Yan Jiayu rubbed her hands together, lifted the table top again, and then asked Xu Huo, "Are you alright? How do we get out of here?" "Go downstairs." Xu Huo turned and headed for the stairwell. This hospital symbolized the intensity of mental contamination from the first floor to the sixth, with the sixth floor being the strongest. Therefore, he couldn’t successfully open a door on the sixth floor. "Then let’s head downstairs!" Yan Jiayu said directly, "You guys go ahead, I’ll cover our rear." More and more "security guards" were appearing on the sixth floor, and the others didn’t waste words, quickly and orderly proceeding down the staircase. By this time, most of the wall surfaces on the fifth floor had peeled off, making all the rooms clearly visible. Those things that were almost but not quite human wandered the fifth floor, their black mist-like bodies spreading contamination like a source of disease, turning much of the floor black; the rooms and the ground began to blur. "This floor looks like a 3D game..." Sima Xiao’er said subconsciously. However, when he looked down and saw that his own feet were also covered with something that resembled a swarm of flies, he immediately exclaimed, "I’m turning into a monster too!" It wasn’t just him. After arriving on the fifth floor, only Xu Huo walking in front and Yan Jiayu covering the rear were uncontaminated. The two exchanged glances through the crowd. Xu Huo said, "Pick up the pace. We have to get down before the whole building becomes contaminated!" As he moved on, Sima Xiao’er and the others naturally followed. Along the way, they also found a number of tools, fighting their way down to the third floor. During this time, two players were dragged away by hair that flew out of the shadows, but the rest emerged unscathed, with the black shadow spreading up to their knees. "Come in." Xu Huo opened the door to the ward he had previously stayed in, but instead of a psychiatric ward, inside was a pure white space. "What is this place?" More than ten people, including Sima Xiao’er, walked in, but they left a trail of black smoke-like substance everywhere they went. Xu Huo’s gaze darkened. A place with mental contamination shouldn’t have consciousness, but as he was leading people out, his psychic power was interacting with the psychic power of many others. The clash of powers caused a backlash, contaminating his originally stable spiritual world. If he didn’t hurry, with the increasing density of contamination here, he might become unable to open his own door. After taking two steps forward, a new door appeared in front of him. Turning the doorknob, the other side of the door surprisingly led back to the third floor. He took quick steps to the opposite side and once again opened a door and stepped through. Sima Xiao’er and the others didn’t understand, but they could only follow. They passed through three doors in succession, always ending up on the third floor. The players from the Special Defense Department were baffled by everything happening before their eyes. Not knowing whether they were affected mentally, they didn’t display any impatience. Instead, they grew more and more silent, with expressions of deep sadness and despair. Sima Xiao’er remained relatively clear-headed. He said to Xu Huo, "Brother Xu, don’t panic. Keep your cool. Following your method, you can definitely lead us out!" "If it doesn’t work out, just save yourself," Yan Jiayu stepped forward, her arms and legs also entwined in shadows. "I think I understand the current situation. We’re all trapped in our own consciousness. Only we can save ourselves. By bringing us along, you’re just holding yourself back. It’s better for you to go alone than for everyone to die here." Sima Xiao’er looked at her in shock, but quickly swallowed back his words, wiping his eyes before saying, "Brother Xu, life and death are decreed by fate. Hurry and go... If you get out, please tell Captain Nie to arrange a grand funeral for me. After all, I will have died for my country..." Xu Huo looked at the Special Defense Department players being engulfed by the black fog, turned around, and closed the door, bringing everyone firmly back to the third floor. He said to Sima Xiao’er, "I’ll take Yan Jiayu out first. If I succeed, I’ll come back for the others. Wait for me on the first floor." After finishing his words, he directly opened a door out of thin air on the wall behind him, pulling Yan Jiayu in with him. Once the door closed and disappeared, it didn’t appear again. Sima Xiao’er stared intently for several seconds before hope rekindled, "Right! Right! If you can’t take so many people at once, you can take them one by one!" He turned his head, rushed to the Tall Black One and the others, and slapped each person on the face, "Wake up quickly, we still have a way to escape, go to the first floor—Xu Huo will come to pick us up soon!" Unfortunately, the players were still immersed in their own worlds, merely glancing up before continuing to seem lost. Sima Xiao’er was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, spinning twice in place before suddenly exclaiming, "Captain Nie is calling you all to assemble!" The expression of the Special Defense Department players, slightly numb, twitched, and they actually stood up instinctively! seaʀᴄh thё nôvel_Fire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Captain Nie, I’ll never talk behind your back again!" Sima Xiao’er said with eyes brimming with tears, then shouted, "Run downstairs!" Elsewhere, Xu Huo was leading Yan Jiayu down the steps, and they managed to open the door to the outside with ease. Having regained consciousness, Yan Jiayu flipped to her feet and moved her hands, joyfully exclaiming, "We really made it out!" Xu Huo nodded, "I’m going back in to lead the others; please protect the outside." "Got it!" Yan Jiayu held the Demon-Subduing Pestle in one hand and the Large Scissors in the other. Xu Huo once again entered the mental hospital; by this time, the entire hospital was enveloped by a black fog, with vague roars echoing from within. "Brother Xu!" Sima Xiao’er called to him from the lawn. Xu Huo quickly walked over, grabbed him and the nearest player, and brought them through the door, repeatedly going back and forth to lead out more people. The black shadows in the mental hospital gradually swallowed the hospital’s outdoor activity area, while at the same time, the fog outside the abandoned building was fading. "Is this place going to disappear?" Yan Jiayu looked outside. "I’m going to look for people; Chief Wu and the Ting City branch members should still be outside!" said Sima Xiao’er, ready to go out. "This isn’t Ting City; Xu Huo and I came from a welfare home in Hua City." Yan Jiayu said, "When did you come in?" After comparing times, Sima Xiao’er realized, "In just a few hours, the Mist Area moved from Ting City to Hua City?" The two places were not far apart, but the Mist Area contained a building, a real and substantial place—and it just directly moved to Hua City? "We can’t communicate with the outside from here," he quickly called out to the Tall Black One and a few others, "Let’s find a way out, and the next time Brother Xu comes out, tell him not to go back in. We must hurry and escape!" The Special Defense Department players, now equipped, finally came to their full senses. They tied the ropes they had prepared in advance around themselves and exited the building one by one. After they left, Yan Jiayu pursed her lips: Xu Huo had been inside for too long this time. Everyone from the first floor had already been sent out; Xu Huo did not leave but instead opened a door below and returned to the hospital. Inside the hospital, dark shadows filled the space, and no part retained its original appearance—the walls, the floor, all were covered with pustules, pulsating like living things, and with every step, the ground beneath pulled and dragged, raising nothing but a stench of sticky strands.
