I can rewind time to prevent death

Yan Junze breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed he couldn't underestimate the members of the Exorcism General Team, as they actually had a way to directly remove the poison. Moreover, considering Zhang Chengjing's abilities, he too could have controlled the spread of the Dark Poison in a short amount of time.

"So, do I still 'Rewind,' or not?" Yan Junze was hesitant.

If he did 'Rewind,' the young man from before wouldn't die, but then the team wouldn't have experienced the horrific event firsthand, thus missing the opportunity to heighten their vigilance and take serious measures to prevent such invasions of the Dark Poison.

Moreover, in the video just now, he had clearly seen the altar in chaos with numerous dark shadows flying out. If all those shadows were the same faceless dark shadows as before, it would be an absolute disaster for the Half Moon Association.

After all, even the exorcists from Huaying Great Capital, who had been filming from a distance, had not escaped unscathed.

The exorcists who had been filming from afar also died under Yan Junze's watch, and he was unable to rescue them or even warn them.

After some thought, with life-saving rescue so close at hand, he couldn't just stand by.

Rewind!

The scene on the screen went back to the moment when a multitude of dark shadows burst forth from the sacrificial altar. A moment later, the screen began to shake, clearly indicating that the person filming had started to flee.

"Turn off the screen, cut off communications," Yan Junze suddenly commanded in a decisive tone.

Everyone, including the handsome young man at the console, was startled and turned to look at Yan Junze.

Yan Junze said to Zhang Chengjing, "Uncle Zhang, I think I recognize the dark shadows that appeared there. For safety's sake, please order the signal connection to that area to be cut and shut down the video here."

Zhang Chengjing was still very puzzled, but he ordered it to be done.

Before long, the signal was cut off, and the video screen plunged into darkness.

Everyone turned around to face Yan Junze, listening for his explanation.

Yan Junze was looking at Zhang Chengjing. "I once encountered a strangeness named Rock who had a type of toxic infection called Black Poison," he said.

"Black Poison!" Zhang Chengjing obviously knew the name and couldn't help but be startled.

"And just now..." Yan Junze pointed to the screen that had gone dark, "those dark shadows that emerged from the altar reminded me of Rock. Think about it, even our exorcists were fleeing from the scene, which means that the situation has terrified even them. So, I suspect that those dark shadow strangenesses are likely carriers of the Black Poison."

"But why cut off the signals?" the handsome young man asked.

"Have you ever been infected with Black Poison?" Yan Junze asked.

The young man shook his head, looking confused.

"Neither have I," said Zhang Chengjing. "But I've heard that being infected with Black Poison is tremendously horrifying, practically a matter of life and death, and the means of infection are quite bizarre."

"Exactly," Yan Junze nodded, "Although it hasn't been confirmed, I worry that this toxin might be transmitted to the people here through electronic signals."

Upon hearing his words, everyone was shocked.

After a moment of silence, Zhang Chengjing asked, "This Rock you mentioned, who is he?"

Yan Junze replied, "I suspect he may be an Ethereal spirit. My approach to resolving strangenesses involves fulfilling their Obsessions. However, when I played a game with him to resolve his Obsession, I only earned his respect, and he showed no intention of stopping."

After a pause, he added, "If he wants to play a big game, I believe that if he really puts it into action, it would be at least a B-level event."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Chengjing's pupils slightly contracted as he looked towards the pitch-black screen.

After mulling it over for a while, he instructed the young operator, "Try to contact our people again after half an hour. If there's still no contact, send another team tomorrow to ask around the nearby area, but do not approach the disconnected region for the time being."

Upon hearing his order, Yan Junze felt relieved. Recalling the faceless figures in the screen before the 'Rewind' that had instantly morphed into the appearance of this young operator, he guessed that the transmission of the Black Poison by the dark shadow wasn't that terrifying. At least, one would see the other's appearance first, which would then undergo mimicry, and finally, the toxin would be transmitted through a catalyst.

Clearly, just now it seemed that after mimicry, the infection progression to death from Black Poison in this young man was notably accelerated (although it was also partly due to Zhang Chengjing's magnetic field pressure), which should be the equivalent of a catalyst effect.

As for Zhang Chengjing, whose arm was later infected with Black Poison but did not succumb to it as quickly, and could even be treated in the core laboratory, it was probably because the dark shadow had not mimicked Zhang Chengjing's appearance, thus the catalyst effect did not occur.
