I can rewind time to prevent death-Chapter 793 - 450: The Stronger the Change
Chapter 793: Chapter 450: The Stronger the Change
They whispered as they followed Zhang Xiaomo to the ground floor of the first teaching building.
“They’re all on the fifth floor, let’s climb the stairs,” said Zhang Xiaomo softly.
Through their conversation, Yan Junze had begun to sense Xiaomo’s despair.
It wasn’t just her, in fact, but also Zhang Di and those two four-star Exorcists; each of them had felt deep despair over these past few days.
The reason for their despair wasn’t that they were unable to deal with the strangeness; in fact, they had contained it within the school, preventing it from escaping. However, no matter how they killed it, the strangeness would resurrect on the spot, seemingly indestructible!
The four Exorcists, including the two four-star ones, had never encountered such a situation before.
Zhang Xiaomo told Yan Junze that even the two four-star Exorcists were starting to suspect that the strangeness wasn’t a creature formed from the death of a human, but rather an unknown creature’s strangeness.
As for their guess, Yan Junze only wanted to say, “You’re right!”
But now was not the right moment to lay it out plainly.
And as for whether they had really trapped the strangeness in the school, or if it simply didn’t want to leave, that was also something he couldn’t openly discuss.
Following Xiaomo, they reached the fifth floor of the teaching building, where they found the other three Exorcists in one of the offices.
These three were all crouched by the window, craning their necks and peering toward the second office building across the way.
Turning around, they saw Zhang Xiaomo walk in with a man.
For Zhang Di, seeing Yan Junze wasn’t too surprising; he was just a bit astonished and turned to Zhang Xiaomo, saying, “Didn’t you go to the bathroom? How… how did he get here?”
The other two Exorcists were members of the Tianmeng Squad but had never met Yan Junze before. Although they had seen his photo, it hadn’t left a deep impression on them.
Moreover, in the current environment, when the two of them saw Zhang Xiaomo bringing him in, they were momentarily bewildered.
Yan Junze noticed that these three were also in poor spirits, worn out and listless, having clearly gone through countless sleepless nights.
Fearing that the strangeness would escape the school, they took turns keeping watch over it, even at night, and had to remain highly vigilant while doing so; being worn out was to be expected after so many days.
Neither of the two four-stars knew Yan Junze, but he was familiar with them, having been introduced to them by Guo Youliang and having seen their photos. Among them, the one who was robust and tall was named Mei Lianhua, and the other with darker skin was Huang Wenjian.
“Brother Huang, Brother Mei, let me introduce myself. I’m Yan Junze,” Yan Junze was the first to speak up.
The two exchanged glances, and after Zhang Di whispered a few words to them, they suddenly realized who he was.
Zhang Xiaomo said, “My boyfriend just happened to be handling some affairs in Gaosheng City. He contacted me just now, and when he learned that I had been trapped here for more than ten days, he insisted on coming to check on me.”
Mei Lianhua and Huang Wenjian were often out on missions, only rarely returning to the squad’s office, so they weren’t too aware of Yan Junze’s current situation. They had only heard of him as someone who used a laid-back Exorcism Method to solve strangenesses.

Now, the two were already at their wit’s end. Seeing Yan Junze’s arrival, they couldn’t help thinking that perhaps his laid-back Exorcism Method could solve this indestructible strangeness.
After all, it was Yan Junze who had wanted to come himself, mainly out of concern for his girlfriend Xiaomo; it wasn’t that they had specifically asked him to come.
Thinking this way, it seemed that even if it got out that the two four-stars couldn’t handle the strangeness across the way, they wouldn’t lose face.
Immediately, the two made room for Yan Junze and Zhang Xiaomo to crouch by the window and look out.
Mei Lianhua said, “Based on what we deduced, this strangeness is likely not one formed from human death, but rather an unknown creature’s strangeness. Look, on the third floor of the building across, there’s a large amount of black non-Newtonian substance similar to paste on the corridor, which we’ve observed to be spilling out of room 307.”
“Where’s the strangeness now?” Yan Junze asked.
“It has entered room 307 for the time being and hasn’t come out yet,” replied Huang Wenjian, standing aside.
“How did you kill it?” Yan Junze curiously asked.
Mei Lianhua glanced at Huang Wenjian before the latter replied, “Directly with the magnetic knife. I killed it seven times, and Mei killed it eleven times. Each time we used full force, exploding its body on the spot and messing up the magnetic field to ensure it couldn’t reassemble. But after each time we killed it, it would resurrect right there, regenerating completely at the damaged spots, as good as new.”
“Have you checked the room where the black non-Newtonian substance is spilling out?” Yan Junze pointed toward the third floor across.
“We’ve been there,” nodded Mei Lianhua. “One time, after discussing with Wenjian, he went to kill that thing, and I went to the room to check. To my surprise, I entered 307 quite easily, and inside, the floor and ceiling had two opposing giant tumorous growths. They weren’t moving, but that black non-Newtonian substance was leaking out, covering the walls.”
“Could it be that the growths are constantly producing this strangeness?” Yan Junze speculated.
Mei Lianhua shook his head, “No, this strangeness resurrects on the spot; it’s not emerging anew from those growths. I wonder if those growths are the strangeness’s home, and those black non-Newtonian substances indicate that it is not a strangeness formed from a human.”
“Right,” Huang Wenjian agreed. “There were two times when the way it died, while I was killing it, was completely different from when we kill other strangenesses.”
“Isn’t it obvious whether it is a strangeness formed from a human or not?” Yan Junze asked in surprise.
