Chapter 269: Chapter 269: The Commission of the Mirror God
Dark, hollow eye sockets were streaked with two lines of blood tears, as if Ying Yue was reminded of something extremely painful.
Using the secret that touches the soul’s depths, Han Fei gently wiped the tears from Ying Yue’s face. He didn’t say anything more; there was no need for words now.
"Player number 0000, please note! Because you have fulfilled your promise to Ying Yue, your friendliness with Ying Yue has increased by twenty!"
"Player number 0000, please note! Your actions have been observed by all the residents of the building. Because you have fulfilled your promise, bringing a sliver of hope to all the residents, the friendliness of all the residents in Happiness Residential Community has increased by one!"
Standing in front of Han Fei, Ying Yue did not feel at all like a fierce ghost; she seemed like a little girl who had lost her way and finally found her long-lost relatives.
Ying Yue gripped Han Fei’s clothes, signaling for him not to leave yet. She went into the bedroom and came back holding several ragged dolls.
"You should keep these dolls," Han Fei said, trying to decline. He hadn’t helped Ying Yue expecting thanks in return.
Seeing Han Fei refuse to accept them, Ying Yue stubbornly shook her head and then tore open the bodies of the dolls, stuffing the evil spirits hidden within them into Han Fei’s ghost pattern.
"Player number 0000, please note! Your G-grade low-rank ghost pattern has absorbed enough grudges and negative emotions! It has broken through to G-grade high-rank!"
"Ghost Pattern (G-grade high-rank): Your ghost pattern hides several evil spirits, sealed on the surface of your skin by Ying Yue with a special method. They can take on the negative impact of curses for you and help mitigate some attacks, as well as absorb some dark energy."
"Note! The level of your ghost pattern can be continuously upgraded! When it imprisons a special type of grudge, there is a small chance that the ghost pattern will gain some of its special abilities!"
The low-rank ghost pattern had already been a great help to Han Fei. Without its protection, even a brush with a grudge would have caused his skin to ulcerate, let alone engaging in close combat with ghosts and monsters.
Enhancing the ghost pattern took a significant toll on Ying Yue as well, making her body appear somewhat more ethereal.
However, compared to her physical weakness, her cold heart regained a bit of warmth.
Leaving Ying Yue’s house, Han Fei touched the ghost pattern on his skin, feeling the power surging within it.
Upon reaching the seventh floor, Han Fei, who was studying the ghost pattern, suddenly found the door to the room where the Mirror God resided had been opened by someone.
The Mirror God in building one and the Dark Dog in building two were among the earliest residents of Happiness Residential Community. The fact that the Mirror God had not been destroyed when that unspeakable Gesheng entered building one showed its power.
Han Fei had nearly been killed by the Mirror God before, so even though he had become the Building Chief, he seldom went to that room.
To his surprise, the door of that room had opened on its own right before him today.
Feeling slightly intimidated, he stood where he was, not daring to approach carelessly.
As he hesitated whether to ask Ying Yue to accompany him downstairs, the mirror placed in a living room on the seventh floor started to bleed.
Suddenly, bloodstains appeared on the mirror, and then the blood coalesced into words.
"You’ve helped many residents in the building. If possible, could you also help me with something?"
Seeing the blood words on the mirror, Han Fei was taken aback at first, then slowly began to understand.
Previously, when Han Fei rescued Xu Qin, and this time after fulfilling his promise to Ying Yue, he gained the favor of all the residents in the Happiness Residential Community, thus the friendliness of the Mirror God towards him had also increased.
"Of course, I can," Han Fei replied without a second thought. The Mirror God itself was a mysterious cursed item, and he needed to deal with the Butterfly in the Death Building, which required the assistance of a large number of cursed items.
If she was accompanied by the Curse Aggregation Xu Qin and the Curse Item Mirror God, then he could have a bit more confidence.
"I want you to help me find a body. I have been in this mirror for far too long." As new blood letters appeared on the mirror, Han Fei also received a task prompt from the system.
"Player Number 0000, please take note! You have successfully triggered a Level F hidden quest—Mirror God’s Commission!"
"Mirror God’s Commission: The mirror on the seventh floor of Happiness Residential Community seems to have existed as long as the community itself. It knows many secrets and possesses a very special ability. If you are willing to find a suitable body for it, then you shall gain its friendship and help!"
"The quest has no time limit, but the body you find must satisfy the Mirror God. Perhaps, you could even try using your own body."
Listening to the prompt in his brain sea, Han Fei felt quite surprised—this quest was actually a Level F hidden quest.
"You are a resident of the building. I will definitely try my best to fulfill your request! However, I am currently under a spell from the people of Death Building, and I might have to take a trip there in seven days. In the meantime, I can’t guarantee that I’ll find a suitable body for you."
Despite his words, Han Fei had already chosen to accept the quest. After all, it was a task without a time limit, and it wouldn’t cause him any harm.
"Your willingness to help is enough for me." The blood letters on the mirror slowly disappeared, and everything in the room returned to normal. However, the Mirror God’s friendliness towards Han Fei had increased by three points.
"If I can help, then I definitely will. After all, you guys are like my family." Closing the door on the seventh floor, Han Fei went down to the first floor again, ready to fulfill his agreement with Huang Ying.
After completing Jin Sheng’s Manager task, his Manager Talent for Soul-summoning had strengthened. Now he could use it twice every night.
However, the corresponding Soul-returning Talent could still only be used once a night. That meant Han Fei could bring down two people at night but could only send one back.
Walking to the back of the residential building, Han Fei used his Soul-summoning Talent once again.
Unlike when summoning Mingmei, the Ghost Face representing Huang Ying seemed like it couldn’t wait to dive into the Deep World.
Looking at the blood koi that the Ghost Face turned into on the Blood Sea and the huge figure swimming in the depths of the Blood Sea, Han Fei felt awe, and at the same time, he pondered whether he could bring out the Monster from the depths of the Blood Sea if he continued to strengthen his Soul-summoning Talent.
"Summoning an uncontrollable Blood Sea Monster in Death Building, just the thought of it feels... comfortable..."
A flash of blood light, and the familiar screams of Huang Ying came from Building No. 2.
Han Fei shook his head with a wry smile and hurriedly took Cry into Building No. 2.
Following the heart-wrenching cries for help, Han Fei found Huang Ying on the third floor of Building No. 2.
At that moment, the thin and long Li Zai was coiled around Huang Ying’s neck. He lightly sniffed Huang Ying’s forehead, muttering to himself, "Dark hallmarks between the brows, red veins in the eyes, a mean-looking face, and hollow spirit and flesh. Your fate is incredibly unlucky, prone to misery and misfortune, destined to be connected with me and my brother!"
With a man as cold as ice wrapping around his neck like a snake, Huang Ying was nearly scared to death.
He thought that he had trained his nerves by now, but he now realized that his cultivation was far from sufficient.
"You were born with bad luck entwining you, turning into a doctor through prolonged illness. It’s quite rare to see someone completely devoid of fortune like you." Li Zai wanted to say more, but Han Fei pulled him away. Huang Ying was his only friend, and if Huang Ying were scared to death, where would Han Fei find anyone to reason with?
"Brother Huang Ying? Are you okay?"
"I’m, I’m okay." Yet again shaken, Huang Ying shrank behind Han Fei, his complexion pale, not daring to make eye contact with Li Zai.
"His name is Li Zai. You’ve met him before. He means you no harm," Han Fei said with a wry smile, changing the subject. "Brother Huang Ying, did you bring the stuff I asked you to prepare?"
