Chapter 946: Trapped



Chapter 946: Trapped

The bridge leading to the cryptic world broke. Gao Xing fell into the void between the two worlds. He was abandoned by the cryptic world and hated by the real world. There was no place for him, not even his broken soul.

The owner of the skyscraper, the founder of the three criminal organizations, Gao Xing portrayed evil to its extreme. Strangely enough, on his last day, he didn’t gather his power to attack Han Fei but wanted to morph into the bridge to connect the two worlds. The ghost territory disappeared and the black dream shattered. Gao Xing’s twisted soul was exposed between the two worlds. His body was filled with scary wounds.

Comparing the wounds with the butterfly pattern on Shen Luo’s skin, Gao Xing’s soul was also once carved with a butterfly pattern. That was Dream’s brand, but Gao Xing used various methods to remove the patterns, leaving behind the scars. Gao Xing was a monster who looked down on fate. How would he possibly follow Dream’s order?

When Gao Xing had the hope to resist Dream, he would turn against it without hesitation. However, when his altar was destroyed, everything was written. The rules of the cryptic world were cruel. Even Unmentionable couldn’t showcase any weakness. The altar was the foundation of every Unmentionable. When his three souls were destroyed, Gao Xing knew his ending. Everything was as Gao Xing expected. Dream changed its plan and turned Gao Xing into a sacrifice. It used him to distract Han Fei and the police.

However, one thing was certain. Compared to killing Han Fei, who brought his mother with him, Gao Xing would rather his perfect creation kill Dream. He was an evil person. He wanted to destroy the world if he couldn’t be in it. Gao Xing tried to convince himself, but was that the case? Humans were complicated creatures. He also didn’t know why he changed his mind at the last moment.

The rotten sin disappeared with all the sins. Han Fei looked at Gao Xing from a distance. The man’s soul had been sucked dry beforehand. Everything that could be used became dream dust. The masked criminals scattered. Han Fei didn’t give chase. “Gao Xing is dead, but… the knocking in my brain hasn’t stopped!” Han Fei looked around. The bleeding Shen Luo asked Han Fei for help, but Han Fei walked past him. “Both tunnels at the skyscraper and theme park are guarded. Where is the problem? Dream knows of a new path?”

“Sa…”

“Brother Huang, the ghost territory is gone. Contact the police now!” Han Fei saw the worst day in advance. After the altar was destroyed, the enemy would know that as well. They wouldn’t be dumb enough not to change the plan.

“Brother, save…”

“The police are on their way! The Immortal Skyscraper is coming back online.” Assistant Tao and the worker ran over. “Many people died this time. More than 1/5 of the researchers were killed by the human models. This is a big problem for Immortal Pharma.”

“I’m still alive. I…” Shen Luo was bound by chains but he tried to lift his hands.

“Gao Xing is an abandoned piece! Dream most likely knows that Fu Sheng has handed the thing to me! What is its real plan?” Han Fei frowned. Dream was not human. It was a native of the cryptic world. It had no humanity.

“Help… Ouch. You stepped on my hand…”

Assistant Tao then noticed Shen Luo. He thought he was a dead body. “Sorry.”

Assistant Tao helped Shen Luo up, and Han Fei immediately ran away. “Don’t get too close to him. Find a few people to send the injured to the hospital. We’ll stay here for observation.” Han Fei didn’t want to have any interaction with Shen Luo, but he could hear the familiar laughter from him. “Let me take a look at your wound.” Han Fei pressed his hand lightly on the back of Shen Luo’s head. The maddening laughter echoed in his ears and his mind. Everyone feared the laughter, but Han Fei found it comforting. He felt secure. The questions that were unanswered slowly clarified.

No. 2 once said that Mad Laughter had sent part of his soul out. Mad Laughter probably had targeted Shen Luo in the theme park altar world. It was Mad Laughter was fooled Dream into thinking Shen Luo had the black box.

“No wonder the murderers love you that much.” Han Fei wanted to console Shen Luo, but the laughter in his mind was guiding him to do stuff.

Han Fei walked to the remaining 13 boxes. The laughter told him to open them. Han Fei embraced the cultivated despair. The black box surged with power. Jin Sheng, Little Eight… the names of despair flashed in his mind.

When Han Fei opened the box with No. 2’s brain, the black box in his mind changed. The two sides were opened simultaneously. Inside the black box was another black box. It didn’t look any different, but Han Fei could feel the change. He could sense everyone’s emotions more clearly. His mind and consciousness underwent a categorical change too.

Han Fei reached into the box and took out the special container. No. 2’s brain was still alive. “We’re the only two left of the bloodred night.”

Laughter led Han Fei into the black dream. He came to the center of the fake black box. He placed No. 2’s brain in the giant black room and stood at the place where Gao Xing was. The bridge to the cryptic world shattered. All the strangeness entered No. 2’s mind as if everything was made up by No. 2. They were both Unmentionables, but No. 2 had never used his power in real life. No one knew this brain was so special.

“Alright. Now we wait for the police and the people from Immortal Pharma to come.” Unmentionable’s power in real life was far greater than Han Fei anticipated. The ghost territory covered the entire building. Everyone fell under its control. Even after Gao Xing was dead, 80 percent of the people were still under control. Some even had their personality changed permanently. It took about half an hour for the internal members to shake off the influence. They took the elevator to the underground 18th floor with the police. The carcasses shocked many people. The doctors carried the injured away. The rest rushed towards Han Fei. Both the police and the admins of Immortal Pharma looked serious. This made Han Fei nervous.

“Han Fei, why are you here?” The police leader recognized him.

“It was a shareholder of Immortal Pharma who asked me to come here.” Han Fei took out Du Jing’s id and then told them everything that had happened there. When they heard that the criminal conspiracy had been broken, the leader looked more relaxed.

“What is happening next? Will you start investigating Immortal Pharma?” Han Fei whispered after he leaned into the police captain.

“We temporarily won’t do anything to Deep Space Tech and Immortal Pharma.” The captain looked at Han Fei and said, after some hesitation, “We now need the help of these two giants.”

“Why?” Han Fei was confused. Immortal Pharma had done many horrible things. They needed to be punished.

“At midnight tonight, all the players inside the main hub of Perfect Life can no longer log out of the game.” The captain said.

“What?”

“Yes. The servers of Perfect Life have been closed down. Deep Space Tech tried to use backdoors to kick the players offline, but it still couldn’t work.” The captain took out the police comms. “Some players’ families tried to manually shut off the gaming hub, but these players sunk into a coma. One of the players even experienced brain dead.”

“How many people are stuck in the game now?”

“Perfect Life is a casual game. Many people work in the morning and like to use it to unwind at night. Therefore, midnight is the time when most people are online. There were around 4000000 players in the main hub at midnight.”

Han Fei sucked in a cold breath. The people who could afford the gaming hub were rich people. Most of them had important civil responsibilities. If they were all trapped inside Perfect Life, the city would collapse. Han Fei believed Dream was behind this. He also didn’t think Dream was going to only trap the players. Dream would control and modify these people like how it did to Gao Xing and Butterfly. Once that was completed, these 4000000 players would become new criminals!

Even if the players could get offline then, they would no longer be themselves.

“How did it manage to do this?” Han Fei knew how scary this was. His palms were sweating.

“We’re still investigating. The initial investigation shows that this is related to an admin at Immortal Pharma called Fu Yun. It was he who activated all the backdoors controlled by Immortal Pharma. He was the one who found Perfect Life’s bug.” The captain clicked open the device. “It’s the same Fu Yun you told the captain to pay attention to. He left Immortal Pharma a long time ago. Based on our investigation, he first joined Sunday Night School, but he later betrayed the organization and disappeared into thin air.”

“Betrayed the organization?” Han Fei knew that Fu Yun was Little Ghost. This kid adopted by Fu Tian had betrayed Immortal Pharma and then Gao Xing to work for Dream.

“He’s a very scary man. He’s the only person the former president, Fu Tian, told his kids to be careful about in his will. The president’s children are elites, but they are inferior to Fu Yun.” The captain said directly. “That’s the situation now. The superiors have given the order that we have to save all the trapped players within the next 48 hours. Therefore, we have to work with Immortal Pharma and Deep Space Tech.”

The three organizations’ attacks on the supercomputer hadn’t stopped. Perfect Life was attacked. The only good news was the tunnel underneath Immortal Pharma didn’t open.

“The players trapped inside Perfect Life can’t exit, and the people outside can’t enter it either. The mental world is cut off from the real world. If something went wrong, the consequence would be unimaginable.” The captain was worried too.

Han Fei took out his phone when the signal was back. He called his friends, like Jin Jun and Bai Xian. There was no answer.

“Deep Space Tech can open more loopholes in Perfect Life’s supercomputer. After some time, we should be able to send people in to check the situation. However, the people who enter the game probably won’t be able to leave it any time soon.” The captain put away the device and started to clear up the scene.

Huang Yin heard the news. He walked over. “Don’t worry. When Deep Space Tech plans to send people in, I’ll register as soon as possible.”

“Don’t rush.” Han Fei shook his head. “I have two channels. The top of the skyscraper is connected to the real world. The theme park is connected to the surface world. If both channels are open, I can send part of the players back.”

Huang Yin widened his eyes. He didn’t expect his friend to be so powerful. “Are… you a living King of Hell?”

“Is that a compliment?” Han Fei lowered his voice. “I have the Spiritfarer talent. I’ll get Bai Xian and the others down there to ask for more details before I make any decision.”

“You sound more and more like the King of Hell…”
