Chapter 815: The Scare

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

“I’m an extremely proud person, but I feel cowed around you. The feeling is stuck deep inside my soul, but he hasn’t told you about it before.

“In the past, I thought this kind of mutated love was very scary, but when you’re near, I know why he’s so entrapped in it.

“Don’t look at me like I’m trash. I’m just telling you what he’s feeling.”

The director had no idea what Han Fei was hiding. He just told everything in his heart. Evil Soul didn’t hold back. He wished that Han Fei would be carried off to Xu Qin’s kitchen tonight. After Han Fei was cooked, he could take over the body. From his perspective, that was the only use of that normal soul.

…

Han Fei shivered as if he could feel someone targeting him. The broken red paper doll tried to tell Han Fei something, but it was too injured. “My soul was about to be sucked away with just a glance. The distance between me and the Unmentionable is too large.” Han Fei could finally understand why Fu Sheng had chosen to give up everything and choose to be an Unmentionable. This power was too alluring. If Han Fei had been given a chance, he might choose this power too. The group set on the steps made from human bodies and came to the absurd world created by God.

“What is painted on the walls?” Han Fei noticed something interesting. Big Sin, who was not afraid of anything, carried Han Fei on his back as it carefully moved down the middle of the corridor, afraid to touch the walls on the side. The normal Big Sin would have rammed its way through.

“They should be curses left behind by the Unmentionable. I’ve seen similar patterns on Disciples before.” Ji Zheng took pictures of the wall. “There’s no living person on this floor. I heard that if one stays on the 50th floor for more than 10 minutes, they will stay here forever.”

Mr. Mo looked at the dead bodies encased in the walls. “The rumors should be real. Don’t you notice the walls are closing in?”

“Should we go back down?” Li Rou was worried about Han Fei’s injury. She was a half Deviant and was treated like a monster by the tenants. Only Han Fei treated her differently.

“Li Xue’s teacher is fighting God alone. I don’t know how he manages to get that power as a normal human, but I can imagine the sacrifice he has paid for it. In this world, we’re the only ones who can help him.” Han Fei had too many reasons to keep on going. There was a powerful force growing in the corridors. The Taboos had gotten out of control. Han Fei’s group didn’t dare to use the corridors. They took a route around and returned to the elevator lobby. Han Fei’s elevator card could only take them to the 49th floor. Only those approved by God could advance beyond floor 50. This floor was the place to bury all the resistance and the place of birth for many Disciples.

“My card can’t get us further than this…” At that moment, Han Fei noticed that the door to elevator 19 couldn’t close. He went closer to take a look. The door had been forced open. The booth was stuck on one of the floors. Han Fei eased half of his body into the elevator well. This was the first time Han Fei examined the elevator from this angle. The elevator was not an object but a giant head. Taking the elevator meant entering their mouths. The pale cheeks, rotten mouth, gouged-out organs, and a head covered in God’s curse, that was the true form of the elevator. The other elevators still retained the illusion, but Elevator 19 had been ‘killed’ by some kind of power.

“Once God dies, all the illusions will disappear. This building made from human death will be exposed.” Mr. Mo sighed when Han Fei had Big Sin carry him into the elevator shaft.

“What are you doing?”

“We’re going from here.” Han Fei found another path.

“Are you sure?” Ji Zheng didn’t dare to follow.

“Why are we afraid? Let’s go!” Han Fei had Big Sin lead the way. He saw the thick blood scab and strange blood worms crawling in the shaft. Big Sin poked the walls, and many strange worms came out of the blood scabs. Any other ghosts would have been eaten, but Big Sin was an exception. None of the worms dared to get close to Big Sin. It was similar to the situation at Lake God island.

“Get over here!” Big Sin pried open the elevator door to floor 51. Mr. Mo and the rest were shocked. With Han Fei urging them, they eventually entered floor 51. “This path is not bad. It’s much quieter.”

After Big Sin left the shaft, all the worms returned to the blood scab. They were gone.

“The people below floor 50 say the floors above 50 are heaven, but there’s nothing special about this place.” The floors below 50 were similar to Xin Lu from several decades ago. The floors above 50 had new technology. Technology changed lives and brought in new horrors. The doors had been swapped for electric doors. The eye in the surveillance camera blinked occasionally. Everything was changed, but the unchanging thing was the heavy sense of despair.

However, one thing was true. The floors above 50 overlapped with real life. However, real life could represent heaven for the people of the cryptic world.

“Be careful. Don’t trust anything you see. The walls made from dead bodies are real. This is what God wants us to see. We can’t be fooled by it.” Mr. Mo tried to push the doors. There were signs of living everywhere, but there was no one around. Just endless paper dolls. The paper fathers, mothers, and children stayed in different rooms. They were doing their own things, but when Mr. Mo opened the door, they all froze.

“Is the whole floor just comprised of paper dolls?!” The 50th floor was the start when God changed. The 51st floor was the first layer after God changed. This place was special for God.

“The false God has lost his family. There were only his toys and fake parents left.” Ji Zheng wanted to take a picture when the paper doll suddenly looked up at him. The eyes of all the dolls had been dug out, but the two dark holes caused Ji Zheng to feel deep fear.

“Should we kill these paper dolls? Or leave them be?”

“They seem to be God’s toy.” Han Fei entered the room with the red paper doll. He held the child’s paper doll’s hand and used Soul-depth Touch.

Compliance, loss, emptiness…

There was a child’s soul trapped inside the paper doll. The child had lost all his emotions. In a way, he was no different from a paper doll.

“If a normal person wants to leave here, he has to be an obedient paper doll?” The people here had been modified to become puppet. Han Fei didn’t kill the paper dolls because there were too many of them.

“Evil Soul is spreading too slowly. I need to find No. 2’s other brain fragments and help Li Xue’s teacher.” Han Fei entered the corridor. Suddenly a drop of black rain fell on the back of his arm. He looked up. He was inside the building, so why would he be affected by rain?

“This is a strange feeling. When I’m here, it feels like I’m back in real life. Will I eventually be unable to differentiate between the two?” Han Fei had a bad feeling as the black raindrop disappeared from his arm. As he came closer to the Unmentionable’s power, he could feel his influence closer. This was not an actual attack but more like an inexplicable despair.

“The floors below 50 are like a yard for the animals. The floors above 50 are like God’s home.”
