Chapter 163
BOOM!
A shocking scene unfolded.
The Head Balls seemed to be under some invisible, heavy pressure and were squashed and burst one by one, like fireworks.VIsit n0(v)eLb(i)n.com for the best novel reading experience
Soon, they turned into pools of flesh.
Ma Xingbang's strike killed thousands of Head Balls in seconds.
Yang Ming and Bai Qi's pupils shrank. No one could tell what Ma Xingbang had done, but the effect was surprisingly strong.
Thinking that Ma Xingbang was from the headquarters, they respected him even more.
"Let's go," Ma Xingbang said calmly.
He didn't look back, intentionally leaving only his silhouette to the others.
As he stepped on the flesh and climbed the stairs, something unexpected happened.
The blood and flesh on every step bubbled up. Then, countless flesh lumps emerged from the flesh, turning into new Head Balls.
"What?!" Ma Xingbang was shocked and quickly ran down the stairs.
Flesh lumps surged under his feet. Blood and flesh splattered, staining his pants. He was graceful when he was going up, but now he was in a panic coming down.
At this moment, however, no one was paying attention to Ma Xingbang. They were all horrified by the flesh on the stairs.
Countless Head Balls grew from the flesh, quickly covering the entire staircase. They were packed tightly together.
They seemed endless, almost filling the entire stairway.
Clearly, Ma Xingbang's actions had made the situation worse, multiplying the number of Head Balls by several times, possibly over ten thousand.
The narrow corridor and stairway were almost completely occupied by the Head Balls, making the scene extremely horrifying.
Ma Xingbang's face was twisted, partly because his attempt to show off had backfired immediately, and partly because he hadn't expected the mental hospital to be this terrifying. They had just entered and hadn't even passed the first challenge, yet they were facing a setback right away.
Bai Qi, although silent, couldn't hide his shock and followed as well.
Ma Xingbang, left with a dark expression, was furious at being ignored. He tried to suppress his anger and slowly followed them up.
But just as he took a step, Fang Xiu stopped and said lightly, "By the way, Mr. Ma, what were you saying just now?"
Ma Xingbang's face went pale. He didn't respond.
"Mr. Ma, you were talking about using your key to leave, right? Now that I'm continuing the exploration, you wouldn't shamelessly follow us, would you?"
Ma Xingbang was about to explode with anger. His own words were thrown back at him, and his face felt slapped, yet he had no choice but to follow.
The item he was searching for was in the mental hospital, and he couldn't afford to give up after forming such a strong team.
In the end, Ma Xingbang 'shamelessly' followed them.
As the group walked up the stairs, Yang Ming was fidgeting, scratching his head and body as if he had lice.
He then took out a cigarette and offered it to Fang Xiu. "Xiu, want a smoke?"
Fang Xiu glanced at him calmly and said, "Just shoot."
Yang Ming chuckled, "My foreseeing buddy, I can't hide anything from you, huh? I'm just curious, why do those Head Balls die outright without splitting when you kill them?"
Bai Qi and Ma Xingbang, although pretending not to care, were all ears.
Bai Qi was the quiet type, not one to ask questions even if he was curious. And Ma Xingbang, having shamelessly followed them, would only invite more humiliation by asking.
Yang Ming was voicing their shared curiosity.
Fang Xiu didn't beat around the bush and calmly said, "The reason is simpleit's the blood."
"Blood?" Yang Ming was confused.
"Xiu, can you be more specific? What about the blood?"
"You all noticed the blood on the stairs, right?"
"Yes, but what's special about the blood there?"
