Chapter 722 History Cannot Be Allowed To Repeat Itself
Keh rushed over to Boss'' house as fast as he could.
The moment his car screeched to a halt, he could see the ground littered with bodies of those from
Vermillion Base.
It wasn''t hard to see whose handiwork it was.
Thereafter, Keh quickly followed the trail.
The second floor that was blown apart when he escaped back then had now been repaired. The
smell of wet cement could still be detected in the air.
The moment Keh arrived at the door and prepared to enter, he heard a sudden noise behind
him. Turning around, he saw the men who had newly arrived aiming their guns at him.
Without a moment''s dy, he dived for cover.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Multiple gunshots rang out, followed by the thud of bullets peppering the wall he was hiding behind.
“Search inside and kill them all,” a voice barked outside.
With his body hugging the wall, Keh broke into a smirk at the sound of the voice.
He could sense Boss'' indignance. Despite the terrible loss he had suffered, thetter insisted on
making sure all of them were eliminated.
The next moment, Keh gave his surroundings a quick scan. When he saw some items on the
table beside him, he grabbed all of them and hurled them outside.
In response, the men outside began firing indiscriminately.
Gun in hand, Keh made a split-second decision the moment the gunshots ended. He then took
aim and fired a single shot each at the gunmen.
When a few of them copsed onto the ground, the rest scattered to find cover.
Keh had no desire to draw out the battle, for he knew that the priority was locating Dave and
the others. Holstering his gun, he walked upstairs right away.
Nevertheless, he had barely taken two steps when he saw the men outside continue their pursuit.
Narrowing his eyes, Keh pondered a moment before an idea popped into his head. The very
next second, he burst into a sprint toward the second floor.
This is the exact same position and ce asst time.
Staring at the tightly closed door, Keh approached it to examine its lock. The facial recognition
mechanism had now been reced by one that required a fingerprint and code to unlock.
Keh frowned in response. I could use Natasha or Anthony''s expertise in a time like this. This
wouldn''t stop them at all.
Keh walked to the door and pounded on it.
“Dave, Spencer!” he yelled.
An anxious voice suddenly rang out. “Keh? Is that you, Keh?”
Keh''s fears were eased when he heard an answer. He shouted through the door, “It''s me. Are
you guys all right?”
“We''re fine. It''s just that Spencer didn''t find the antidote after rummaging through the ce,” Dave
replied.
“Forget about it for now. Come out first,” Keh ordered.
“The problem is we can''t!”
“What are you talking about?”
“The door has a self-destruct mechanism. If we try to break it by force, we would trigger it and be
annihted here.”

Keh''s eyes darkened at the news.
It seems that Boss still has a trick or two up his sleeve. It does make sense, though. Ever since I left
thest time, Boss was certain that I would return for the antidote. Moreover, he set all this up just
for me... Unexpectedly, Natasha''s sudden departure foiled my original n. Otherwise, I would be
the one inside right now!
At that moment, Keh stared intently at the door again. He couldn''t imagine how he was going to
forgive himself if Dave and Spencer were killed on his ount.
Clenching his fists, he instructed, “Wait for me. I''ll definitely figure out a way to rescue you.” With a
grim look in his eyes, Keh swiftly scanned his surroundings.
As long as the system can be set up, there must be a way to turn it off. I cannot allow history to
repeat itself!
While Keh was busy looking for clues, a beeping sound suddenly rang out. Thereafter, Luke
yelled in panic, “Dave, that thing has suddenly begun a countdown!”
Furrowing his brows, Keh was lost in thought when he heard a banging on the door. Dave''s
voice subsequently rang out. “Keh, get away from here! Now!”
“What''s going on?” Keh asked.
“The countdown suddenly started. Leave now, as it''s going to blow!” Dave barked.
A frosty look quickly descended upon Keh''s eyes. “How did this happen?”
“Keh, get out now!” Dave thundered again.
At that moment, it suddenly dawned upon Keh why the men outside didn''t dare enter and kept
circling the building.
Holding that thought, Keh shouted, “Dave, wait for me. I won''t leave you guys behind!”
Thereafter, Keh ran to another corner and looked down from the second-floor window. There,
he could still see his pursuers lingering outside.
Without a second thought, Keh smashed the window and leaped through it.
When the gunmen looked up, they saw Keh crashing down on one of theirpanions before
rolling on the ground.
The other man fired at him without dy, but Keh managed to use one of their own as a shield.
Bang! Bang!
The moment the gunman ran out of bullets, Keh shoved his meatshield away and raised his
gun to shoot the gunman''s arm.
When the gunman suddenly dropped something in his hand, Keh lunged forward and quickly
subdued him.
As the gunman stared at Keh, fear began to fill his eyes. “Mercy, have mercy.”
Keh red at him. “What did you just do?”
“I-I didn''t do anything,” the gunman replied.
“There''s no point in keeping you alive if you lie.” shing an insidious smile, Keh cocked his
gun.
Terrified by the turn of events, the man relented. “I''ll talk, I''ll talk!”
Keh pointed the barrel of his gun between the man''s eyes. “Go on.”
The gunman spoke hesitantly. “Boss ordered us to destroy the security mechanism by cutting one of
its wires.”
It''s just as I expected!
“Where are the wires?” Keh demanded.
“At the back.”
“Take me there.”
However, the man gave Keh a reluctant look. “This ce is going to blow. We have to leave
now.”
Harboring no intention to leave, Keh nudged his gun against the man''s head. “Do you think
you''ll get to leave if you don''t take me there?”
The man had no choice but to give in.
“Lead the way,” Keh instructed.
The man did as he was told as Keh followed closely behind.
This time, the man moved quickly without the need to be told.
After traversing through the building, they arrived at a small room at the back that was two meters
tall. It looked like a storeroom of some sort.
“The wire box is right inside,” the man exined.
Not wanting to waste any time, Keh grabbed the man by the cor and shoved him in.
“There''s not enough time,” the man protested in a quivering voice.
As if he didn''t hear the warning, Keh scrutinized the surroundings quickly. There was a table in
the room, and on top of it was a ck box. There were wires jutting out of it, with one of them
looking as if it had been cut.
