After the black mist consumed Teacher Wang, Han Fei slowly climbed up. Han Fei activated the greed persona. He had been curious about what was hidden in the abyss. As a teacher, Gao Cheng was very powerful, and Han Fei hadn’t fully unleashed his strength yet. “Might as well use this chance to research.”
Han Fei’s consciousness fell into the abyss. The consumed ghosts and monsters were trapped in the abyss. There were large Lingering Spirits too. Han Fei tried to use their power, and then something shocking happened. The Large Lingering Spirit dissolved into the mist and then crawled out of the abyss through Han Fei’s control. The temperature around Han Fei dropped as a giant shadow appeared behind him.
“The greed persona allows me to be reborn in the form of the ghost I’ve consumed?” As the giant shadow appeared, Han Fei’s mental corruption flew high. “The stronger the ghost, the faster I’ll be corrupted.”
At this stage, Han Fei went all in. He released the ghost into the abyss and got them to help Wang Chuqing to deal with Ma Jing!
“Notification for Player 0000! You’ve mastered the correct way to use the greed persona! There’s a 50 percent chance to strengthen the greed abyss by consuming ghosts, a 2/3 chance to gain its unique power, and a 1/10 chance to trap it inside the abyss! Feeding them emotion and memory fragments can release them from the abyss!
“Notification for Player 0000! The maximum limit of trapped ghosts inside the abyss is now 9! Warning! The more ghosts you have trapped, the greater the damage to the body!
“Wu Chang (Lingering Spirit): A two-faced Spirit. The first Lingering Spirit Gao Cheng has trapped.
“Du Niao (Animated Regret): Used to transport long-distance messages. Will not be affected by other ghosts.
“Executioner (Giant Lingering Spirit acquired after sacrificing Xin Lu Prison): The spirit you’ve obtained from sacrificing all the inmates. He kills without mercy. He’ll only return to slumber after drinking enough fresh blood.”
There were only three ghosts left in Gao Cheng’s greed abyss. The strongest was the Executioner. He looked at his rising mental corruption, and his lips twitched. In a few minutes, his corruption would go over 30!
“I need to deal with Ma Jing in a minute!”
Ma Jing was as powerful as Wang Chuqing. With Han Fei’s help, Wang Chuqing had the advantage. The appearance of the Executioner meant that Ma Jing was defenseless. The Giant Lingering Spirit swung its axe. Ma Jing released all his ghost puppets, but it was pointless. “Gao Cheng! Wang Chuqing! I’m going to kill you!” Ma Jing thought that Han Fei was working with Wang Chuqing.
“It’s your fault that you’re too confident.” Han Fei had the paper doll attack too. The doll possessed the curse of Pure Hatred. Ma Jing was too busy dealing with Wang Chuqing and the Executioner that he didn’t notice a red paper entering his wound. Xu Qin’s curse spread within Ma Jing. The paper doll first attacked Ma Jing’s throat and limbs. Ma Jing couldn’t speak, and thus Han Fei could spin the story his way. The victory had been decided. To pull the Executioner back into the abyss, Han Fei had it kill all of the ghost puppets.
“This thing is too murderous! I suspect there were other ghosts in Gao Cheng’s greed abyss, but they were killed by the Executioner after Gao Cheng got weakened.”
The black mist dispersed. The ‘weak’ Han Fei collapsed to the ground. His mental corruption worsened.
Gao Cheng’s greed persona was powerful, but the price to pay was high too. The bone knife pressed on Ma Jing’s neck. Wang Chuqing stepped on Ma Jing. “You attack your colleague and have private trades with the black merchant! Ma Jing, just how many dirty things you’ve done?”
Ma Jing’s eyes were red. He opened his mouth, but he couldn’t speak.
“Teacher Wang, ignore him. Help me!” Han Fei was so in character. “Do you have more ghost blood?”
“Your body can’t sustain drinking so much blood.” Wang Chuqing placed a special box before Han Fei. “I was planning to give the blood and the heart to you, but you shouldn’t use them so rashly.”
“This is your white stick.” Han Fei handed it to Wang Chuqing.
“Are you sure?” Wang Chuqing looked at the white stick. When he held it in his hand, he hesitated. This thing represented the lives of more than ten children.
Han Fei signaled for Wang Chuqing to put it away. He climbed up with ‘difficulty’. With resentment, he walked to Ma Jing, “The time has changed. Ma Jing, I will return to you the pain you’ve given me!”
Ma Jing spat out blood. He used his eyes to curse Han Fei.
“Teacher Wang, this might get gory, so I hope you’ll give us some privacy.” Han Fei dragged the helpless Ma Jing into An Kang Pharmacy. Wang Chuqing stayed outside. He was shocked by Han Fei’s appearance earlier, so it was normal for Han Fei to want to take revenge. Han Fei dragged Ma Jing underground. They waited until the black merchant appeared. Twelve arms appeared under the robe to grab Ma Jing’s body.
“Black merchant, he is the man I want to sacrifice.” Han Fei looked at the merchant nervously. He still had no idea how powerful the merchant was.
“Cheng, you are a man of your word.” The wilted head spoke. He was very satisfied. It led Han Fei deeper underground to a small altar. The black cloth was taken away, and the smell of rot permeated everywhere. There was a broken altar. The altar served a faceless figurine.
“It’s not Gao Xing?” Han Fei was shocked. There was other people’s altar in Gao Xing’s memory world. “Gao Xing’s memory world is very different. I need to pay attention to this.”
Gao Xing’s memory world was based on a future. However, his future included other Unmentionables. They influenced him. Ma Jing was fixed to the altar by the merchant. It chanted something and prayed at the faceless god. God heard it. The pieces fell, and the figurine turned slightly. Ma Jing’s body rapidly withered, and the stains on the figurine became lesser. The ritual soon ended. Ma Jing was basically a mummy. His persona and memory had been sacrificed. Ma Jing was still Ma Jing, and his heart was still beating. However, his soul was gone.
“He’s powerful to be a teacher. Cheng, I’m very satisfied with the sacrifice this time.” The black merchant respectfully stood beside the altar. It picked up the pieces of the figurine and put them away. “Bring me more sacrifices, and God can wake up from the tragedy.”
“Shouldn’t you give me the Lingering Spirit already?” Han Fei picked up Ma Jing. The man was still alive. Han Fei wanted to use him for everything.
“I’ve prepared everything.” The black merchant held the head and led Han Fei to the merchandise. It opened the door, and two arms reached into the room to pick up a baby from a cradle. The baby was very cute, but its eyes were filled with envy.
“A ghost baby?”
“No, it’ll change shape based on the negative and curses it absorbs. This is its weakest form.” The merchant handed the cradle to Han Fei. “I ran into this thing on a pure chance at Zone B. Take good care of it. If it doesn’t kill you, it’ll help you greatly.”
“What if I was eaten by it?” Han Fei flipped the coin. He tied his, Gao Cheng, and the baby’s fates together. He slowly controlled the greed mist to swallow the baby. However, the baby started to swallow the mist instead!
The two fought for a while, and with the merchant’s help, Han Fei managed to send the baby into the abyss.
“Notification for Player 0000! You’ve added one more ghost to the greed abyss!
“Envy Amalgamation (Small Lingering Spirit with great potential): Feeding it negative emotions and curses will help it grow. No one knows what it’ll become in the future. It’ll get stronger whenever it mutates.
“Special power, envy: It can invoke negative emotions in humans and ghosts to make them go crazy.”
Gao Cheng’s abyss didn’t lack negative emotions. Han Fei fed them to the baby. To better control the baby, he even fed the baby Xu Qin’s doll. The baby cried. Its body rapidly grew.
“It mutated so soon? Cheng, what did you feed it?” the merchant was very sensitive. The head in its hands stared at Han Fei. It sounded shocked.
“I fed it my own emotions.” Han Fei dragged Ma Jing into another room. “Borrow me this place for a moment.”
The exam was getting closer. Han Fei wanted to awaken his persona. He followed No. 4’s instruction, but it was not effective. Han Fei wanted to try something else. A healing persona should be selfless, like Mad Laughter when he was young and the uncle at the theme park hospital. With them as references, Han Fei wanted to heal others. Han Fei didn’t dare to experiment on his kids, so he chose Ma Jing.
“I’m such a good person. Why did you threaten me?” Han Fei held up Ma Jing’s head. He used a Soul-depth touch. Ma Jing was like a broken doll. His soul and memory were not complete.
Normally, emotions were collected in one’s mind, but Han Fei wanted to try something else. He used Soul-depth Touch and poured every memory he had related to the healing persona into Ma Jing’s mind. Ma Jing’s mind was dominated by Han Fei. Ma Jing’s weakened consciousness wanted to resist, but something unexpected happened.
In Han Fei’s memory, the figures he had saved appeared. The hands held up Han Fei’s sky and comforted Ma Jing’s soul. Compared to Ma Jing’s cold and bleak brain, Han Fei’s memory world was lively and fresh. Han Fei had saved so many people. All the choices he had made became part of his persona. The figures gathered like the sun. Ma Jing’s torn soul was reborn in flames. Just as his soul was about to walk out of the fire, the sins in his soul suddenly appeared. The evil presence covered his body. Ma Jing’s face turned up with a wicked smile. He looked at Han Fei viciously. Even if he had to die, he would bring Han Fei with him. The sin exploded with the soul. The process was forced to stop.
Han Fei opened his eyes. He didn’t complete Ma Jing’s healing, but something different appeared in his mind. There was a weak star above the greed abyss. That appeared to be Han Fei’s persona.
“Notification for Player 0000! You’ve triggered a random mission, Healing Persona.
“Mission Requirement: Healing five patients with broken persona.”
