Chapter 604: The Second Hatred of the Death Building Area

Chapter 604: Chapter 604: The Second Hatred of the Death Building Area

Black flames lit within countless curses, like a Flower of Evil blooming in the depths of despair.

She donned a cloak woven from curses, her blood-stained lips tasting different hatreds, elegant, mature, sexy, with a fatally and pathologically seductive charm.

Her arms slowly spread, and the malevolent blossom unfurled in the night, all the resentment contained in the curses coalesced in the flames. The hatred spread outwards, dispersing the fog, enveloping the entire Death Building within.

Her stunning face looked down upon the person in her arms, the devil embracing the demon, their blood mingling, eyes locking.

"I really want to eat you, or be eaten by you."

Countless curses swallowed the last vestiges of obsession, and the black fire in Xu Qin’s eyes spread over her entire body. She supported Han Fei’s back, and the rationality that had just surfaced in her eyes was gradually replaced by another kind of madness.

The Body of Hundred Curses swelled to several times its size in an instant, and just when Xu Qin was about to lose control again, Han Fei held the handle of the knife wrapped in human skin, studying Xu Qin’s face from such a close distance.

All ten strands of resentful obsessions were consumed, and there was no longer any need to keep Xu Qin in this agonizing state.

With force in his arms, Han Fei tried to pull out the thirteenth dinner knife.

As he pulled, all the curses around Xu Qin were triggered, nearly crushing him on the spot.

Fortunately, at the last moment, those curses seemed to be bound by something, they did not harm Han Fei but instead drilled into the thirteenth dinner knife.

Hatred and curses transformed into bizarre patterns, imbuing the thirteenth dinner knife with different abilities.

The whole process lasted a long time, until the out-of-control curses were all pulled back into Xu Qin’s body, and Han Fei finally succeeded in pulling the knife from Xu Qin’s chest.

As the knives dropped one by one, the hatred shrouding the Death Building and the madness in Xu Qin’s eyes slowly dissipated together.

All curses were sealed once again, yet the black fire in Xu Qin’s eyes was not extinguished.

Han Fei, covered in wounds, looked at Xu Qin with concern; he did not want her to be harmed for saving him.

A few breaths later, a rational Xu Qin looked down at Han Fei, the black fire flickering in her eyes, her lips parted slightly, "Are you getting so close to me because you want to be spoiled?"

As soon as Xu Qin spoke, Han Fei’s appetite was aroused, he swallowed hard, but still sheepishly moved back.

"Don’t do anything so reckless in the future. You even dared to swallow the curses left by ten hatreds; it’s really too dangerous," Han Fei awkwardly changed the subject, but Xu Qin kept staring at him, making Han Fei unable to meet her gaze.

"Did you say something to me when I lost my reason? I vaguely remember feeling at that time, a strong desire to continue staying in this world of utter despair."

"I didn’t say anything," Han Fei, having just emerged from the Shrine Memory World, had experienced soul scattering once, felt a lot, and pent-up emotions filled his heart. When Xu Qin was about to lose control and breakdown, all the emotions he had been suppressing burst forth. The grievances of life and death and yearning for his family naturally caused him to spill all his thoughts.

But then was then, now is now, for him to repeat those words to a rational Xu Qin, he truly could not do it. After all, having grown so big, he hadn’t even held a girl’s hand, and added to his introverted nature, he had almost no interactions with living females.

"It’s okay if you don’t say it." Xu Qin picked up a sharp dinner knife, "I’ll ask, and you’ll answer."

"Answer what?" Han Fei sat on the wooden table, like a dish on a platter.

"First of all, what I’m really curious about is, why does your body harbor the hatred of those two women?" Xu Qin looked towards Zhuang Wen and the faceless woman’s heads, "Don’t you think this situation is a bit too complicated?"

Although Zhuang Wen was much stronger than Xu Qin, she chose to leave, mainly because she really couldn’t bring herself to speak.

In the Shrine Memory World, she saw Han Fei for the last time. She had no idea how Han Fei got involved with eight women, from life to death she had never seen such a thing, and what’s more inexplicable was that her own resentment was also within Han Fei’s body.

"I wasn’t planning on hiding anything from you anyway." Han Fei stopped Zhuang Wen, who was ready to leave through the window again. He really hadn’t done anything to feel guilty about and recounted the incident of embodying Fu Yi’s memories in its entirety.

While eating pig hearts, Han Fei told Xu Qin about what he had experienced in the Shrine Memory World and the choices he made.

As he recounted his encounters in the shrine, other residents of the Death Building sneakily crept back.

Everyone was terrified when the hatred enveloped the Death Building, as everyone thought Xu Qin, due to Han Fei having ten girlfriends, had directly broken through to hatred.

But just when everyone thought the Building Chief was doomed, they came back to find Han Fei sitting at the dining table in good shape, with the hatred inside him cleared away.

They quietly pushed the door open and found their own places to settle down, slowly getting drawn into Han Fei’s story as well.

It took almost half an hour for Han Fei to finish explaining everything, and everyone realized they had indeed misunderstood him.

"I just knew the Shop Manager couldn’t possibly be that kind of person," said Yinglong, his one eye filled with respect for Han Fei.

"I never expected the Old Building Chief to have such a tragic life; Han Fei has helped him mend a regret."

"It seems I really misunderstood the Building Chief."

The residents of the Death Building and neighbors from the Happiness Residential Community gathered around. Han Fei waved his hand, "It’s normal for you all to have misunderstandings. Don’t blame yourselves; the blame is all on Shen Luo."

After swallowing a large quantity of pig hearts, Han Fei finally regained some strength. Propping himself up, he got down from the wooden table, searching for Shen Luo among the crowd.

If it were just sheer bad luck, then so be it, but Shen Luo also had a Desperate Escape ability. Han Fei was truly afraid that after sending Shen Luo to Paradise, this guy’s final chance of survival would fall on himself.

"Shen Luo, where are you? Don’t be afraid, we are all good people; we won’t hurt you." Han Fei turned on his Master-level Acting switch in his Brain Sea and triggered his Hide-and-Seek passive, gently coaxing Shen Luo, who was hiding in a corner, to the front of the shrine with a tender face.

"Han Fei, I’m really sorry about just now. It was just something I said without thinking." Shen Luo kept apologizing to Han Fei. He truly wasn’t bad at all, and often, he was a victim himself.

"Stop talking, I will get you out of the Hidden Map. It might be a bit uncomfortable later, but I hope you can bear it," Han Fei told Shen Luo as he had him sit in front of the shrine, using the Personality Reshaping ability for the first time.

The crack-filled shrine seemed to hear a call as Han Fei approached.

The fragments of the former God Statue crumbled to dust. When Han Fei touched the shrine, a very small God Statue was reborn amidst destruction and dust.

His already scant Life Value began to plummet rapidly. Han Fei could only desperately rely on eating the meat dishes Xu Qin made to recover. After a full half hour, a face with a maniacal laugh finally emerged on the small God Statue.

Distorted and grotesquely laughing, Han Fei instantly recognized how that face differed from his own.

"Why is it another maniacal laugh?"

Han Fei glanced at Shen Luo, feeling that this time it probably had nothing to do with Shen Luo; the God Statue in his first shrine also bore a laughing expression.

"Bro, I really know I’m wrong," Shen Luo, surrounded by neighbors, was having difficulty even breathing.

"Don’t panic, I really want to help you." Han Fei, with one hand touching the shrine and the other resting on Shen Luo’s head, said, "I’ve saved you so many times, don’t you trust me? Close your eyes, take a deep breath, and relax."

Han Fei decisively used Personality Reshaping after Shen Luo skeptically closed his eyes.

For a moment, Han Fei seemed to see Shen Luo’s entire life—a life filled with tragedies, yet he lived strongly and happily.

Perhaps because the shrine wasn’t fully repaired, Han Fei didn’t know how to modify others’ memories and could only destroy large swathes of memories related to himself.

Each time a memory was destroyed, the God Statue in the shrine would smile, and Shen Luo would tremble in pain, feeling as if pieces of his soul were being torn away.

Once Personality Reshaping began, Han Fei took control, and no matter how loudly Shen Luo screamed, it was of no use.

By the time Personality Reshaping was complete, Shen Luo had fallen unconscious.

After checking Shen Luo’s condition and making sure that he was only knocked out from the pain and otherwise unharmed, Han Fei used his Soul-returning Talent to send Shen Luo away.

"Player number 0000, please note! You have gained one Reputation point and one Hidden Virtue point."

After using Personality Reshaping on a player, Han Fei unexpectedly found that the cracks on the shrine seemed to have been partially repaired, and the expression on the God Statue had slightly changed.

"Alright, the task is done. Now, with Xu Qin and Zhuang Wen harboring resentment, the Death Building Area is more than equipped for self-defense, and I can leave with peace of mind," said Han Fei, looking at the neighbors and suddenly noticing that Doctor Yan was not among them. "Did you see Doctor Yan? He was the main contributor to our raid on the Plastic Surgery Hospital."

"Doctor Yan seemed to have followed Zhuang Wen and jumped down together," Li Zai said before everyone turned to Zhuang Wen, "Didn’t he come up with you?"

Zhuang Wen shook her head, "I jumped from this floor to the one below."

"And Doctor Yan?"

"He jumped from this floor to the ground floor, smashed his face, and is now downstairs piecing his body back together."

Upon hearing this unfortunate news, Han Fei shook his head; the poor guy was simply trying to avoid the enraged Xu Qin.

After chatting with everyone a bit more, Han Fei prepared to exit the game as his mental state was very poor.

Passing through the corridor, Han Fei entered a room alone.

He was about to press the exit button when the door suddenly opened, and Xu Qin appeared at the threshold.

Closing the door, Xu Qin approached under the dim light, stopping in front of Han Fei.

"What’s up?" Han Fei leaned against the wall.

"I put it back together." Xu Qin produced a Blood-colored Paperman; every piece of paper on it was soaked with her and Han Fei’s blood. "Don’t go eating it this time."

Accepting the Blood-colored Paperman with both hands, Han Fei looked at the complex Curse patterns on it as the system’s alert sounded in his mind.

"Player number 0000, please note! You have obtained the top-tier E-rank Curse Item—Cursed Paperman."

"Cursed Paperman (E-rank): This paperman has a thousand and one curses on it, which will curse everyone who harms you."

"A thousand and one curses?" Han Fei carefully stored the Blood-colored Paperman, "Don’t worry, this time I’ll definitely take good care of it."

"No need for any promises to me, just stay alive," Xu Qin pinned Han Fei against a corner, her body swirling with curses, her lips slightly parted with a smile looking at the slightly embarrassed Han Fei.

After extended combat in the Deep World, Han Fei carried an intensity and maturity uncommon for his age, but in front of Xu Qin, he seemed to lose his composure, forever the boy next door he had once been.

"You saw Fu Sheng’s past in his shrine, understood some of his actions, and most importantly, you brought out ten Hate Intent Obsessions," Xu Qin said, nearly pressing up against Han Fei. "After swallowing these ten Hate Intent curses and obsessions, I became Hate Intent myself, but didn’t you think it was too coincidental?"

Pausing briefly, Xu Qin continued, "Do you remember the Mirror God from the Department Store? He and I are residents from the Happiness Residental Community, and the God Statues in the Department Store and Plastic Surgery Hospital were intentionally left by Fu Sheng, so I think this might have been prearranged by him."

"Did you come here alone to tell me this?" Han Fei asked, taken aback.

"What else were you thinking?" Xu Qin’s smile became even more dazzling as she looked at the injured Han Fei before heading towards the door, "Take care of yourself, and don’t fully trust Fu Sheng—he once wanted to destroy this world."

"In fact, I also understand that his path is ultimately different from mine. He has been trying to change me, but I too have been trying to change him."

Han Fei watched Xu Qin leave and then put the Attribute Points from leveling up into Physical Strength, thinking, "It must be because my physical condition is so poor that I was overwhelmed by Xu Qin’s presence."

At level twenty-one, Han Fei’s Physical Strength had reached thirty-four points, but he was still not satisfied.

Pressing the exit button, Han Fei finally exited the game after a long time.

The world was covered in blood red, and Han Fei faintly felt that there was someone behind him, back to back with him, emitting a grating laugh.

"The more often Kuangxiao appears, the more active that person behind me seems to become..."

Opening his eyes, Han Fei, now out of the game, experienced the agony of both mental and physical collapse once again.

"The shrine tasks are indeed terrifying."

Lying in the game pod, Han Fei felt so weak he could barely move. Just then, the sound of a phone ringing came from outside the pod.

Forcing himself up, Han Fei hadn’t pushed open the pod’s door when he suddenly stopped all his movements.

He noticed a faint smell of paint.

"Painter?"

Hesitating, Han Fei slowly opened the door of the game pod, "The three resentments from the Plastic Surgery Hospital must cooperate with each other and with the help of some special things to possibly affect reality, they definitely won’t come after me now."
