Chapter 940: Potential Unmentionable
Chapter 940: Potential Unmentionable
Han Fei put away the card Du Jing gave him. Perhaps it was a coincidence. The card showed that Han Fei was a Grade A+ researcher, just like how it was in the altar world.
"Mr. Han, in the next 24 hours, I'll be your personal bodyguard." The worker said respectfully. "You can call me Assistant Tao." The man drove Han Fei out of the theme park. Huang Yin followed silently from behind. When they returned to the old city apartment, there were still six hours to midnight.
Han Fei planned to prepare a room for Assistant Tao, but Assistant Tao took out his phone and directly planned to buy the room next door at ten times the price. If the tenant next door were a normal tenant, this would have gone through easily. However, the tenant next door was the police sent to protect Han Fei. After the door opened, everyone was awkward. Assistant Tao also understood the meaning of money wasn't everything the first time. In the end, Assistant Tao stayed in the room underneath Han Fei. Huang Yin settled the AI butler and temporarily stayed with Han Fei. Honestly, he was much more nervous than Han Fei. He had been through some waves, but he was nothing compared to Han Fei, the monster who swam in the sea every day.
As the sky darkened, Han Fei led everyone to have a nice dinner. When Assistant Tao and Huang Yin saw Han Fei swallow the food, their hearts soured. They assumed Han Fei saw this as his final dinner.
After he was done, Han Fei led everyone home. Huang Yin and Assistant Tao got to see the everyday life of a celebrity. First, he learned city management, then, criminal psychology, and finally, cases related to suspects before he crawled into the gaming hub. Han Fei's life was busy, but nothing he did was related to acting.
"He could have had an easy life, but he insisted on adding challenges to his life. Is that why Teacher Du Jing values him so greatly?" Assistant Tao was impressed. Huang Yin, who knew part of the truth, looked at Assistant Tao with pity. To be on Han Fei's side, one had to go through the challenge of the cryptic world, and no one would survive that. Huang Yin shivered when he thought of the school that was filled with ghosts.
There were only a few hours to midnight. To get to Immortal Skyscraper early, Han Fei entered the game earlier than usual too. Blood descended. The bloody man behind him still didn't appear.
Han Fei opened his eyes and realized an experienced gaze was staring at him. He was startled. "Teacher?"
Li Xue's teacher was still guarding the top of the building. The body of sins radiated a presence scarier than the night. Even though his mind wasn't fully conscious, the elder appeared to have recognized Han Fei. He didn't harm Han Fei. He merely glanced at him and then left.
"Will teacher slowly return to normal once he stops using the power of the sins?" Han Fei respected Li Xue's teacher. He didn't wish for the elder to become a monster.The blood threads dropped. Big Ghost crawled towards Han Fei. Her body took up half of the rooftop. Her eyes were filled with hatred and also humanity. "It looks like you can leave the cryptic world freely."
"Stop trying to trick me." Han Fei moved his eyes away from Big Ghost.
"I'm not interested in that." Big Ghost's voice was similar to Gao Xing's wife. "I just want to ask you. When will you move this altar away?" Big Ghost was very strong, but she was afraid of the altar dominated by Mad Laughter.
"It'll take some time. Where are the others?" Han Fei stood up. He planned to finish a mission and logged off.
"After you left yesterday night, the New God who took over the altar presented the curses Gao Xing had collected over the decades to the Pure Hatred with the table knife." Big Ghost crawled on the web made by life threads. "She is a source of curses. After she gained the curses, her power rose. Now, with the help of the New God and the brain, she's trying to construct a world related to curses." Big Ghost said sourly. Her beautiful eyes glanced at the altar and the brain fragment before the altar. "Two Unmentionables are helping her. Who is she?"
"If she is successful, can Xu Qin become an Unmentionable?" Han Fei had collected many curses in Gao Xing's altar world. As the most brutal criminal, everyone he had harmed cursed Gao Xing. In the past, Gao Xing used his three souls to suppress the curses. After Mad Laughter took over the altar, he decided to gift all the curses to Xu Qin.
"Do you think becoming an Unmentionable is so easy? The gap between Pure Hatred and Unmentionable cannot be crossed with brute strength," Big Ghost held her chin. After she got her revenge and freedom, she was rather bored, so she liked to chat with Han Fei. "However, if you die, you should be able to become an Unmentionable easily. I see intense despair in you and a special quality. When Dream was cultivating Gao Xing, it mentioned people like you had the greatest potential."
"Thank you." Han Fei ignored Big Ghost and walked towards the altar.
Noticing Han Fei, Big Sin lowered its head obediently. The bug was always understanding around Han Fei. However, once Han Fei was in deep danger, it would become extremely excited, like it was afraid that people wouldn't know its master was about to die.
"Not bad. You didn't eat Mad Laughter's sacrifice." Han Fei was worried that Big Sin would eat No. 2's brain.
Big Sin shook its brain when it heard Han Fei as if trying to say that it wasn't that kind of a 'person'.
"I was curious why someone would like you to keep a pet as ugly as this. Now I realize you two are quite similar." Big Ghost crawled slowly over, but she didn't dare to come too close to the altar. "New God should have more than one altar, right? He's silently gathering the power from all the altars to prepare to become an Unmentionable. I feel that this New God is scarier than Gao Xing."
"Naturally. Gao Xing, Mirror God, Fu Sheng, one person controls the altars of three Unmentionables. Only he knows his upper limit."
After the bloodred night, Mad Laughter sent his and three children's consciousness into the bloodred orphanage. He sustained all the pain to wait for this day. Mad Laughter didn't leave the altar. It looked like he had made the decision to leave the body to Han Fei. For Mad Laughter, this was not a sudden decision. As he spent time with Han Fei, he realized Han Fei was the right choice.
"If Xu Qin and Mad Laughter could both become Unmentionables, my life here would be easier." Han Fei looked at the altar. "Usurpation was highly risky, but the reward was immense too. I wonder if I can do that again. I'll provoke an Unmentionable to pursue me into the real world and then have No. 2 and Mad Laughter take over their altar in the cryptic world."
"Are you crazy? Even I think that's a bit much." Big Ghost crawled away. She didn't want to be targeted by Han Fei.
"You're the crazy one." Han Fei leaned against the altar and looked down at the night sky. The skyscraper was the tallest building in this zone. Han Fei pulled up the map. Compared to the entire world, his territory was about the size of a thumb. "At least there's light in this map now."
Han Fei took out Xu Qin's food from his inventory. He ate them happily. After Mad Laughter left his body, Han Fei didn't feel as affected by the altars. Mad Laughter appeared to have taken the negative things away.
Han Fei then led Big Sin downstairs. He didn't see Xu Qin but did run into the gardener and dancer. The members of the elderly murderer's club were worried about Han Fei, so they decided to come to help. This touched Han Fei.
After a whole day of cleansing, all traces of Gao Xing had been removed. The new rules were built. Han Fei planned to turn this place into a residential area where he'd invite players over to stay. "Good things are meant to be shared."
Han Fei wanted to log off soon, but he received a message from Drake at midnight. Ghost had a bad feeling recently, as if something would happen to the theme park tunnel. To prevent accidents, Han Fei rushed back to the theme park. He had been staying at the skyscraper, so when he returned to the theme park, he was surprised to find out that the atmosphere there was rather heavy. After talking with Ghost, Han Fei frowned. The theme park had been targeted by another Unmentionable.
"Is it Dream's helper?" Han Fei asked.
"I can't be sure, but they do have a presence that I'm familiar with." Ghost wiped the blade he was holding. "This city you're building in the cryptic world is going to face its first challenge. The monsters in the dark wouldn't allow the existence of any light."
"It's fine. I never plan to coexist peacefully with these monsters anyway." Han Fei's goals were salvation and destruction. "The rooftop of the skyscraper has a tunnel that connects to the real world. I suspect this Unmentionable is trying to distract us."
"We can't risk this. The tunnel here is very important too." Ghost warned.
"You're right. Then, we'll focus our power around these two tunnels." Han Fei contacted his neighbors. "Once we survive these few days, the Gods around us will become Unmentionables too."
