Every second felt like an hour, every breath weighed down by an unbearable pressure that crushed both body and mind.
Lu Ben struggled, resisted, fought with everything he had but it was like sinking into a bottomless abyss.
The more he tried, the deeper he fell. Not far away, Shi Dong could only watch.
His body was completely immobilized, as if bound by invisible chains. Not even a finger could move.
His eyes, however, were wide open, forced to take in everything unfolding before him.
And what he saw… It shattered him.
A cold, creeping dread wrapped around his heart, tightening with every passing moment.
The reality of his own helplessness sank in, heavy and suffocating.
Sooner or later…
That would be him.
The thought alone was enough to make his entire body tremble. His lower hole clenched instinctively.
Fear gripped him so tightly that even his breathing became shallow and uneven.
