"Bang!" The dilapidated classroom door was violently kicked open. A chaotic chorus of children's voices echoed from outside!

"Brother, brother, let's play hide-and-seek! The kind where if you lose, you can never be found…"

"Brother, brother, let's play hide-and-seek! The kind where if you lose, you can never be found…"

...

The eerie and unsettling voices seemed to be everywhere, sending shivers down their spines as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

Shen Wei stared intently at the breached classroom door, terrified that the terrifying ghosts would seize the opportunity to launch a surprise attack.

However, just as he was on edge, a pale, small hand tugged at his sleeve.

"Brother, let's play hide-and-seek. In this game, you're the seeker. Count down from 100 and then go find the hidden people. If you can't find three people within five minutes, you'll die…"

The unexpected scene startled the fully focused Shen Wei, breaking him out in a cold sweat. He had no idea when this strange little girl had appeared by his side.

Shen Wei looked at the bizarre little girl, her facial features outlined by black lines, and a chilling sensation washed over him. As he scanned the room, an invisible fear gnawed at his insides because the classroom was densely packed with eerie children, and Shen Wei and the others hadn't noticed at all.

Cui Jiani, Assistant Director Yu, and the chubby cameraman were all trembling in fear, unable to even utter a sound.

Set Rule 2:

If you encounter frolicking children, please try to avoid them. If avoidance is impossible, or if they find you, participate in their game and emerge victorious.

So, these black line-infested ghost monsters were impossible to refuse. Agreeing might offer a chance of survival, while refusing would immediately break the rules, leading to a collective assault.

"Okay, you guys hide…"

Shen Wei said coldly.

The little girl with black lines all over her face ran out, singing a strange nursery rhyme.

The other eerie children followed closely behind, and soon disappeared from Shen Wei's sight.

At this moment, Assistant Director Yu, the chubby cameraman, and Cui Jiani looked at Shen Wei with fear in their eyes.

Because in this game of hide-and-seek, Shen Wei was chosen as the seeker, and the three of them were the ones being hunted.

If they were caught by Shen Wei, they would most likely die. If Shen Wei didn't catch them, Shen Wei might die.

Moreover, the little girl and the others had stated the rule as three people.

There were only three people here, but could those eerie little girls even be considered people? This game was a game of mutual slaughter.

If Shen Wei's martial prowess wasn't so strong, the three of them would have certainly joined forces to find an opportunity to kill him.

But things didn't go as planned. Shen Wei's combat power was ridiculously high.

Assistant Director Yu, the chubby cameraman, and Cui Jiani didn't dare to make a move.

"Brother Shen Wei, we're all human. You wouldn't help the ghosts find us, would you…"

Assistant Director Yu tried to play the emotional card, but even he thought he sounded like an idiot. How could he ask such a question? The other two also looked at Assistant Director Yu with astonishment.

"Aren't you leaving yet? What are you waiting for? I'm going to start counting down. 100, 99, 98, 97…"

Shen Wei glanced coldly at the three of them, turned around, and began to count down.

If he really had to find three people to avoid the pursuit of those terrifying ghosts, Shen Wei might find those three people without hesitation.

After all, he didn't want to be some saint or savior. In this terrifying Rule Anomaly world, keeping himself alive was the most important thing. If the situation were reversed, the three of them would likely make the same choice as Shen Wei.

Of course, if there was another way out, Shen Wei wouldn't actively consider this option. The survival of these people could also help Shen Wei share some of the risks and test some of the rules.

The others glanced resentfully at Shen Wei's back before scattering and fleeing.

"Is it letting others die or letting oneself die? Most people probably wouldn't choose themselves…"

Shen Wei thought to himself.

"65, 64, 63…"

At this moment, the eerie children, Director Yu, and the chubby cameraman had disappeared. Shen Wei was still counting down unhurriedly. He was using this rare moment of safety to constantly think about a way out.

"It's strange. Why didn't my always cautious and danger-sensitive Evil God Right Hand warn me of the impending danger? This is perplexing. And this guy usually likes to make a fuss. Why did he become silent and still like he fell asleep after those eerie little girls came in? Could it be that he was scared shitless?…"

Although Shen Wei had some black humor, he knew that this was highly unlikely. That guy was still a dignified Evil God. He shouldn't be too scared to speak up by such small fry.

Shen Wei was filled with questions, and he couldn't help but call out to the Evil God Right Hand.

"Youzi, are you there?"

"I have lifespan for you. Are you going to do this big business or not?"

Shen Wei called out several times in a row, but the Evil God Right Hand didn't respond. Shen Wei raised his right hand and looked at it. It was still pitch black, so it seemed that the guy hadn't left, but why wasn't he answering?

"You brat, stop shouting. What, are you summoning souls? This daddy is back…"

The Evil God Right Hand's voice sounded in Shen Wei's mind.

"Where did you go? I was almost ambushed by a bunch of small fry just now…"

Shen Wei counted down while telepathically communicating with the Evil God Right Hand in his mind.

"Just now, an annoying guy dragged me into another space and talked to me about something…"

The Evil God Right Hand transmitted gloomily.

"Who?"

Shen Wei asked with interest.

"I don't know, but he should be related to this place? Just now, he told me not to interfere with things here, said he would help me kill you, and let me regain my freedom! Brat, what do you think I should do? Heh heh heh…"

The Evil God Right Hand let out a sinister laugh, suddenly stretched out, and grabbed Shen Wei's neck, making it impossible for him to breathe.

"Youzi, no way, are you serious…"

Shen Wei squeezed out these words from between his teeth with an incredulous look on his face.

"Although our relationship is good, freedom is too important to this daddy, so I can only ask you to suffer a little…"

The Evil God Right Hand's voice came from Shen Wei's mind. Then, the hand that was holding Shen Wei's neck began to tighten continuously. Shen Wei's eyes rolled back in his head as he was being strangled.

"Youzi, I can give you lifespan, can you not kill me?…"

"Sorry, Shen Wei…"
