The Center was thest hope for humanity. It was like a torch shining in the dark. Han Fei was a strange addition. Everyone looked at the fake eyes Han Fei ced on the table.
“So, you want death-row inmates?” If Han Fei had made this request in private, Li Xue might have agreed, but she shook her head. “Change to another one.”
“Then, can I have more ghost blood? My persona will cause mental corruption, and I need ghost blood for cleansing.”
“Okay.” Even though Ghost Blood was rare, no one thought Han Fei’s request was overboard. The meeting ended. All the teams went to make their preparation. Han Fei was led away by the leader of Team Three.
“Teacher Gao, I feel so close to you. We canmunicate more in the future.” The leader of Team Three was thin and tall. His eyes were sunken like he hadn’t slept in a long time. “My name is Tou Qi. I have a depressive persona. Like you, I’m not liked by others. But I have a close connection to ghosts. I can use various cursed objects to use their powers.”
“Not liked by others like me?” Han Fei silently put away the fake eyes. “Actually, you don’t know me. My former colleagues all think that I’m amazing.”
“People will see the true you after some time.” Tou Qi forced a smile. He opened the door for the logistics department. “This is your first time here. You don’t need to use contribution points for pre-battle supply. You pick what you need.”
“The center values its members.”
“Of course. Every member is invaluable.” Tou Qi smiled proudly. “Are you not treated like this at school?”
“We were.” Han Fei walked to the ce where the ghost blood was stored. The worker took out a set of intricate devices. “There’s no need for trouble. Just help me prepare some meat.”
“We’re going to the battlefield soon. You’ll get plenty to eat. Don’t worry.” Tou Qi and the logistics member said. Han Fei studied the bottles of ghost blood. All the bottles were specially made, and they had the name Deep Space Tech on it. After the tragedy, Immortal Pharma disappeared, but Deep Space Tech was still everywhere. Han Fei twisted open the cap and finished the blood. Tou Qi and the other member were shocked. ck mist leaked out. Veins popped on Han Fei’s forehead. His eyes were bloodshot. He focused and had the starlight heal his mind.
“Retreat!” Tou Qi stood before the other members. He was afraid Han Fei would go out of control. Momentster, Han Fei’s eyes became scary. He sniffed the meat in the air and knew that the food was about to arrive. Han Fei reached into the cupboard to grab another bottle of blood and drank it. Han Fei’s body temperature dropped. His heart beat slower. “Prepare more meat! I need meat!”
He walked to the cart and started eating. When his body temperature rose, he drank another bottle of ghost blood. Han Fei repeated this until he heard the system notification. “Notification for yer 0000! Your mental corruption has lowered to a normal level of 9.” Ever since Han Fei entered the altar world, this was the first time Han Fei’s mental corruption was below 10. All the negative emotions were gone. Han Fei’s eyes returned to normal.
“It feels amazing not to be suppressed by despair.” Han Fei suddenly felt colors returning to the world.
In contrast, the member of the logistics department looked at the empty bottles. Normal people would only take a sip, but this man gulped down bottle after bottle.
“I’m done feasting. Let’s go.” Han Fei licked his lips. He felt it was good that he had joined the center. “Don’t worry. I won’t eat for free. ck Buildings have been breeding kids as a sacrifice so we can breed ghosts to produce blood.”
The logistics member cleaned up the room. He didn’t want to talk to Han Fei.
Han Fei was on his way to the gathering point when he was called away by the leader of Team Eleven, Long Yan. He led him to a secluded room. Han Fei thought this was a hazing ritual when Long Yan tossed Han Fei a ring of keys. “The inmates that you want.”
“Thank the director for me.”
“This is not official. So you don’t need to thank anyone.” Long Yan turned to leave. “Woods are needed for fire to burn. However, you need to find your own wood if you’re creating a ck me.”
“Understood.” After Long Yan left, Han Fei opened the prison door. There were serial killers and people who had done much worse. Tragedy destroyed the world order and unleashed sin within humans. These humans were worse than ghosts.
“Humans areplicated.” Rest in Peace shed. The blood sttered on the fake eyes. The inmates’ eyes stared with fake eyes. Blood spread on the fake eyes. Broken figures appeared in the fake eyes. The figures ovepped. Two shrill screams echoed in prison. Two giant ghosts crawled out of the fake eye.
“Notification for yer 0000! Mission Object, Twin Eyes have been activated!
“Eye of Fate Swap: Your parents are shameless bandits who stole my life!
“Eye of Usurpation: Your parents are selfish thieves who snatched my everything!”
The two ghosts had no level. They were pieced together from Gao Cheng and Gao Xing’s memories. The fake eyes belonged to Gao Cheng, but the figures inside them were the people Gao Xing had seen. The two giant ghosts hated each other.
“This cursed object isplicated.” Han Fei stared at the two ghosts quickly. He noticed something important. The memories that formed the ghosts kept changing. They included things that happened in the altar world as well as events that transpired in the real world. Perhaps the fake eyes had the presence of Unmentionable, and they were not affected by the altar world. They contained memories that didn’t match this world. “Is this what Ghost Mother wants me to see?”
The giant ghosts soon disappeared. Han Fei stood there. “Perhaps Gao Xing’s weaknesses are hidden among these real memories. But how many people do I need to sacrifice to see them?”
Han Fei was heading to Deep Sea Aquarium. Han Fei saw memories of that ce on the ghosts too. Han Fei cleaned up the crime scene and headed to the meet-up point. About half an hourter, all the teams arrived. Since Team 13 was small, Han Fei shared the car with Team 12.
“I’m sorry for the squeeze.”
Compared to the other teams, Han Fei was like someone going on vacation. He didn’t have any weapons and only carried two bottles of ghost blood. Even the normal members didn’t have hope for Han Fei. Han Fei was used to prejudice.
The group rushed to Zone C. Han Fei hadn’t entered this part of the city before. Different from the outer zone, the ce was dark even though it was afternoon. Dark clouds covered the city. The city felt like it was dead.
“Team One has arrived at the destination!”
“Team Two has arrived at the destination!”
“Team Three has arrived at the destination!”
The thirteen units entered the territory of the Deep Sea Aquarium.
“Gao Cheng, our goal this time is to confirm the power and number of Pure Hatreds inside. You’ll distract them. If you’re in danger, retreat. Team 12 and 3 will cover you.” Yan Zheng, leader of Team 12 said as he escorted Han Fei to the front door.
The aquarium was like a sea floating in the city. It was oppressive standing before it!
Han Fei left the car and headed for the door.
“Team 13 has arrived at the destination! Starting the mission now!” Han Fei took a deep breath as the reports of the various team leaders came from the band. “Copy that!”
The coin twirled, and the greed abyss appeared behind Han Fei. A giant axe split the front door.
“Wu Chang! Illness core! Envy! Shang Nv!” The scary presence mmed against the aquarium. The wall cracked. Han Fei was not trying to attract the Pure Hatred’s attention. He was attacking the Aquarium!
“Headmaster!” The tolerant persona was burned by ambition. The headmaster crawled out of the abyss. The ground trembled. The front lobby was crushed!
Han Fei took out Rest in Peace. The shine of humanity glowed in the dark abyss. Han Fei stood among the ghosts and moved forward!
The other twelve teams were stunned. They didn’t expect Han Fei to make such a bigmotion. This was different from what they expected.
“Howe the distraction has be the main push?” The other team leaders were confused.
“Have our tactics changed?”
“Is Teacher Gao nning to take down the Strange Building on his own?”
