Do not contact me proactively in the coming period. If there’s any news, I’ll let you know immediately.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having given his instructions, Jia Sangyi cut off the mental link in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Lie’s brow involuntarily furrowed slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a brief moment of contemplation, he looked up, gazing towards the depths of the corridor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The thick grey fog surged like waves, engulfing everything around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything ahead became blurred, leading as if into some unknown Dark Abyss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Faintly, weak gunshots pierced through the heavy fog, reaching his ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We must catch that jumping flea as soon as possible to restore stability to the laboratory!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this thought, Luo Lie raised his hand, brought his index and middle fingers together, and waved forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No extra words were needed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took the lead, striding steadily into the cold grey tide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More than a dozen well-equipped Hunters followed silently behind, like phantoms merging into the darkness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>..................\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the experimental area, grey fog engulfed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All conventional monitoring and laser detection networks failed within this strange mist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only the sharp alarm echoed tirelessly, intertwining with the bleak green light of the emergency indicators, creating a suffocating confined space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Jiashu carried the unconscious Shijima Gorou on his shoulder, pulling a nearly fallen female researcher with his other hand, sprinting through the labyrinthine corridors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind them, the surging grey fog pursued relentlessly like a Predator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Deep in the mist, numerous twisted shadows swayed vaguely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slick dragging sounds and sharp noises like clawed limbs scraping metal echoed incessantly from behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mixed in were inhuman cries of pain and ecstatic screams, indicating those things were closing in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Intermittent gunfire sounded in the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Running, Cheng Jiashu listened closely, purposefully avoiding the areas with the densest crossfire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the dark, his eyes shone unusually bright, like two glowing cat eyes precisely locking onto prey in the night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, his tense expression now resembled more a hunted prey evading ferocious beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hiss—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A shrill screech suddenly exploded behind them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simultaneously, a pungent cold wind swept forth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Danger!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Jiashu’s heart pounded, deciding instantaneously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A flash in his pupils, he grabbed the female researcher’s arm tightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the next moment, the trio’s figures blurred and vanished from their place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Almost simultaneously, a massive scythe-like limb sliced fiercely through where they had been, leaving a blinding spark on the alloy wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fourteen meters away, Cheng Jiashu and the others reappeared out of thin air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This fog not only devoured the light but also obstructed vision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even with Cheng Jiashu’s Perception Ability, his visual range compressed to the limit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fourteen meters, precisely the furthest distance he could perform space traversal currently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This way!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The female researcher gasped heavily, quickly recognizing the direction by relying on her impression of the surrounding facilities, pointing to a junction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Exit three is over there!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gunfire was especially concentrated in the directions of the other two exits, evidently surrounded heavily by Noah Organization guards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were searching for intruders while surely also eliminating terrifying monsters hidden in the fog.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The female researcher took out a card and swiped it forcefully on the sensor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Beep—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the accompanying heavy hydraulic sound, a thick high-pressure sealed door opened slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Jiashu carried Shijima Gorou and slipped inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After entering the door, the female researcher immediately rushed to the control panel, slammed the close button hard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Clang!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The heavy alloy door sealed up again, temporarily isolating the terrifying dark world outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The female researcher’s legs weakened, she sank against the door, her chest heaving violently, breathing the relatively clean air deeply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her face, pale with oxygen deprivation and fear, almost devoid of blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Jiashu, however, appeared much more composed, gently laying Shijima Gorou down against the wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the nearly exhausted female researcher, he decided to give her a moment to catch her breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman before him and the unconscious Shijima Gorou were two undeniable millstones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But since he promised to lead them out of this Demon Cave, he must do everything to ensure their safety.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Taking advantage of this gap, Cheng Jiashu’s eyes focused with light, and he once again attempted to establish a Spiritual Link with the living coordinate outside the building—Gao Jin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the buzzing sound rang, a wisp of black line appeared in front of him, trying to tear apart the barrier of space and construct a miniature space vortex.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the vortex had just formed and flickered unstably a few times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, like a shattered mirror, it silently disintegrated and vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All that remained in the air was a faint ripple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Failed again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Jiashu sighed helplessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Previously in the laboratory, he thought it was the piercing sonic attack affecting his mental concentration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after escaping, the noise inexplicably disappeared, yet the ability to traverse space still couldn’t be exercised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was there a problem on Gao Jin’s side? Or was it this strange gray fog at work?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He recalled the eerie call he heard from behind the giant steel door in the laboratory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That sound hadn’t actually gone far but had become clearer as the surrounding fog thickened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was like a whisper deep in his soul, causing an intense primal fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seemingly carrying a sense of desecration and filth, each syllable distorted the stability of space and tore at the boundaries of spiritual perception.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only silver lining was that the previously blaring noise in his ears had completely dissipated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It did make his ears feel much cleaner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed there was some sort of conflict between these two sounds, with one silently devouring the other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, not all the changes were orchestrated by the Noah Organization.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the restored emergency lighting around him, Cheng Jiashu asked:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Miss Cui, how is the terrain at Exit Three? Is the view open, and how far is the nearest safe passage?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He glanced at the access card held by the female researcher, which had her name printed on it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This female researcher was Cui Xiuying, Shijima Gorou’s fiancée.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cui Xiuying caught her breath, standing up while leaning against the wall, and replied, panting:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Outside Door Three is an auxiliary live transportation passage, very spacious, directly connecting the freight elevator in Zone B and the safe passage. We have a chance to escape if we can reach it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t understand why Cheng Jiashu couldn’t use that miraculous ability to take her and Shijima Gorou directly out of this Demon Cave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, looking at Cheng Jiashu, her eyes were filled with lingering fear, and she couldn’t help but ask:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What exactly did you see in the laboratory earlier?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I saw an eyeball.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Jiashu’s response was simple and direct.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cui Xiuying was taken aback by his words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That iron door opened by itself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Jiashu’s expression was grave, a hint of lingering astonishment flashing in his eyes:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Behind the door was pitch black, with only a gigantic, lidless Red Eye hovering in the darkness. It merely glanced at us, and those dead Experimental Bodies in the cultivation jars... seemed to all come alive.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I could feel that as long as you get swallowed by that surging gray fog and lose your mind, you would become part of the monsters in the fog.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cui Xiuying’s heart was even more terrified after hearing this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What on earth was it that made this man with mysterious abilities feel fear?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the two spoke, distant gunshots, shrill screams, and the sound of monsters’ claws scraping the ground and chewing on flesh and blood drifted over once more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both of them understood that the outside was in complete chaos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps this was a severe incident even the Noah Organization was caught off guard by.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Bang! Bang! Bang!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, from behind, the high-pressure airtight door was hit heavily and repeatedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each strike caused the thick alloy door to bulge inward slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The door seams began to deform.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even those wisps of gray fog were seeping in through the twisted gaps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zzzzz——\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The lights overhead also started to flicker madly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Run!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Jiashu no longer hesitated, throwing Shijima Gorou back over his shoulder, grabbing Cui Xiuying, and continuing to sprint through the passage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, they successfully arrived at Exit Three on the perimeter of the experimental area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The gray fog here was significantly thinner, no longer thick enough to block vision completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But their good luck ended there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the exit, a Pursuer Team, fully armed, was already waiting in strict formation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The leading man was wiry, his eyes as sharp as a hawk’s, emitting a strong scent of blood.\u003C\u002Fp>",1427,"2026-05-29T15:13:36.926Z","2026-06-01T04:29:35.325Z",1,"novelbin.me","ca0acc69db40e7a7a67689ac7451f12ac3a27789ed1b79faafadb9efd7cfbf11","starting-to-gain-experience-from-push-ups-chapter-756","starting-to-gain-experience-from-push-ups-chapter-754",1278,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstarting-to-gain-experience-from-push-ups-cover.jpg"]
