My Iyashikei Game-Chapter 795: The 25Th Floor
Chapter 795: The 25th Floor
“One of the kids taken from the Red Orphanage?” Han Fei’s eyes widened when he heard the system notification. He just brushed against the boy. He didn’t expect to catch such a big fish.
He remembered something Li Xue’s teacher said. The garden owner had mentioned something about the kids at the Red Orphanage. It went something like, ‘Have all 30 kids died? No one discovered anything unusual, right?’
The appearance of this boy proved that the garden owner was related to the Red Orphanage. Perhaps Mad Laughter’s most painful memory was created by the garden owner.
“Ji Zheng, are there many Taboos and Calamity Ghosts like this kid in the building? What are my survival chances if I go meet them?” Han Fei’s plan was simple. Since Calamity Ghosts and Taboos were hated by God. Then, he had to interact more with them.
“Are you kidding? You want to meet Taboos and Calamity Ghosts?!” Ji Zheng shook his head. Even this Night Police member, who was numb to everything, thought Han Fei was being too courageous.
“Is that not possible?” 𝘧r𝙚e𝓌𝐞𝑏𝗻𝑜𝘷𝙚Ɩ.com
“Everyone who has seen them is dead. That’s why they’re called Taboos.” Ji Zheng shrugged helplessly. He was worried that Han Fei would not accept the boy, but now it seemed like his worry was unfounded. “But I think they’re misunderstood. Taboos are just the citizens’ fear of the unknown.” Han Fei said.
“You can think whatever you like.” Ji Zheng reached behind his head to hug his head and walked to the elevator. “Here’s my warning. We can do anything now because the False God is still asleep. Once he awakens, the seeds of resistance in the building will be crushed.”
“You already call him a False God. Why are you so worried?” Han Fei had killed Butterfly at Ziggurat. He believed the garden owner was similar to Butterfly. They would affect reality through some methods. When he interrupted them in real life, they would be affected in the cryptic world.
“The conflict is more intense than I thought. The ghosts here are too repressed. They have done a lot to melt the two worlds.” The three biggest criminal organizations in Xin Lu were related to the garden owner. It was due to this Unmentionable that they could fight the police for so long.
Han Fei took the elevator back to the 15th floor. He led everyone to meet up with the victims of the Ghost Card Case. “We can’t return to the 6th floor temporarily. We need to go to other floors. Does anyone have any good suggestions?” Han Fei didn’t know much about the skyscraper, so he wanted to ask for the other’s opinions. When the 15th-floor survivors heard that the 6th floor had been destroyed, they felt uncomfortable. They had lost too much hope. They feared that it would be the same again this time.
“Big Sister… you’re so pretty.” The two parties stayed from each other. In the silence, Dirty suddenly spoke. He sidled up to Li Rou and praised her with his innocent voice. In terms of look, Li Rou was not prettier than Sister Hong, but Dirty was attracted to Li Rou. The half Deviant was praised for the first time, and she didn’t know how to react.
“I’m sorry. The child is normally not like this.” Zhang Xiaowei wanted to pull Dirty back but Dirty pointed at Li Rou and said, “Big Sister has a white soul, black blood, and colorful emotions. She’s like someone who came out of a painting.”
“Dirty, can you see that on the sister’s soul?” Han Fei was intrigued. When he first met Dirty, the boy was in the Mausoleum alone. He didn’t seem to be afraid of the Deviants. Realizing that this couldn’t be hidden anymore, Dirty’s father said, “My son is very special. The Deviants would always ignore him. Sometimes we’ll bring him when we go searching through the Mausoleums.”
Dirty’s power was very useful in the skyscraper. The building had many Mausoleums, and they were still increasing. With Dirty leading the way, exploring the Mausoleums would be much easier.
“I understand why you didn’t tell me earlier. It’s fine.” Han Fei counted the members. Then he turned to Fatdog and Ji Zheng. “You two have been to many floors. If we want to take over one of them, which floor do you suggest?”
Fatdog didn’t dare to say anything but Ji Zheng shrugged. “Every floor is the same. However, if you want to avoid the Disciples, I’d suggest the 25th floor.”
“Why that floor?” Han Fei remembered that the Ghost Card Mission told him to head to the 25th floor too.
“There’s a Taboo on that floor that hates everyone that worships the False God.” Ji Zheng said with a cruel smile. “Disciples don’t dare to go there. So the place is a paradise for the Night Police, Deathborn, and all kinds of crazy people.”
“Can we select another floor?” Lee Sisong was worried. He was concerned about everyone’s safety.
“Then, we can try the 35th floor. That floor is a dumpsite too. It’s filled with Mausoleum and corrupted monsters. But there is a safe zone on that floor. If you have money, at least your safety will be guaranteed.” Ji Zheng preferred the 25th floor. He wanted to protect the boy from the Disciples.
“The two of us can survive on the 25th floor but not the rest of us.” Han Fei thought about it. To enjoy freedom, they had to deal with the Disciples first, so the 25th floor was the most suitable.
“You can bring them to the 24th floor first. I know a Blind Merchant there. He can help you temporarily take in this group of corrupted trash.” Ji Zheng was direct. He didn’t know that Han Fei’s blade could help the Deviants-to-be. “When we create a safe zone on the 25th floor, we can fetch them. It’s only one floor away, so we can take the stairs.”
“Okay. We’ll do that.” The 15th floor had been cleaned by the bloody shadow. Han Fei wanted to create a mirage that everyone here had died. These victims might still be useful to him. They entered the elevators in batches. With 2 elevator cards, they used half an hour to transport everyone safely to the 24th floor. The 24th floor was right below the most dangerous 25th floor, so it was a buffer zone. This floor had no fixed citizens but a lot of merchants and ‘mad people’ preparing to enter the 25th floor.
After paying a lot of bone coins, Han Fei settled all the Ghost Card, case survivors. He, Ji Zheng, and Mr. Mo planned to enter the 25th floor together.
“When we’re up there, try not to cause trouble. We need to find the room carved with the character, Life. If conflict is unavoidable, speed is key. The longer you fight, the more monsters you’ll attract.” Ji Zheng stood at the elevator door and held the Calamity Ghost’s hand. He said seriously. “Another warning. If anyone of us is in danger, I’ll try my best to help. But if I think you can’t be saved, I’ll abandon you. I advise you do the same too. Try your best to survive, and do not be affected by emotions.”
“Are there any other tips?”
“The 25th floor is one of the scariest floors below Floor 50. I hope we can find the safe zone.” Ji Zheng opened his lips and sighed, “If there is one…”
They entered the elevator. When they chose the 25th floor, all the numbers turned red. The unique elevator card also cracked. God didn’t want people to go to this floor.
They waited patiently. When the elevator door opened, Ji Zheng took a picture immediately. “I see three broken fate threads and a blood light 5 meters to our left! It knows that it has been discovered, so it’s rapidly retreating.”
Three seconds later, Ji Zheng held the boy’s hand, exited the elevator, and ran down the right corridor. “Follow me.”
Han Fei looked around and felt that this floor looked normal. The only thing was the lights flickered like there was unstable electricity.
“There’s malice on the next corner. Turn the other side!” Ji Zheng’s power was extremely useful. He could use his camera to check fate. With him leading the way, Han Fei’s group successfully avoided all the conflicts.
“Run down this corridor! Quick! Something is chasing after us! It’ll appear five seconds later!” The group raced down the corridor. They looked at the passing doors. The doors looked normal. They didn’t have the Life character. Ji Zheng tried his best to buy them time. Suddenly, something unexpected happened.
When the Calamity Ghost passed by a door with a cartoon sticker, he stopped. The boy in the orphanage uniform reached his hand toward the door. The closed-door suddenly yawned open. A stick-like hand reached out and grabbed the boy. The Calamity Ghost didn’t lose control. He studied the hand filled with needle holes. He seemed to see himself from the past.
“Crap!”
This caused a chained reaction. The ghost in the room and the monster chasing after them blocked their group in the corridor.
“We need to finish this quick!” Ji Zheng said nervously.
Han Fei didn’t get it at first. With their power, they should be able to handle a normal ghost easily. But soon, his expression changed. As the monster approached, the light above them was extinguished. The corridor in the dark was completely different. The walls were exposed, and the floor was like cut open human skin. Blood, meat, and unknown bugs crawled out.
“The entire 25th floor is enveloped by the taboo! The flickering lights are the fights for control between the Taboo and the False God. When the smell of blood thickens, the Taboo is coming!” Ji Zheng wanted to protect the boy, but the boy was dragged into the room. Ji Zheng charged into the room without thinking. This reporter looked so callous normally, but he was actually a good man.
Mr. Mo followed them into the room too. Han Fei wanted to follow, but after the room took the three victims, the wall convulsed like flesh, and the door disappeared. “The terrain can change freely too?”
Han Fei used Rest in Peace to cut at the place where the door was. Blood splattered everywhere. The door was gone. At the same time, a horrifying laugh appeared behind Han Fei. Suddenly, a sharp scalpel cut through Nine Live’s body.
“Nice protection.” A hunchback stood in the middle of the corridor. He wore a ‘pure black’ doctor’s coat. His tongue was forked like a snake. There was a giant birthmark on his face. “You appear to have been abandoned by your friends. Why don’t you stop resisting and follow me?”
“I can do that, but before that, you have to tell me. What are you?” Han Fei glanced behind him. There was a strange man whose extremities were of the same length crawling over. His body could melt into the wall and could appear anywhere he wanted.
“I’m an aged loser. I have no job, but I have a special hobby.” The man with the hunchback’s eyes bulged as he looked at Han Fei excitedly, “I like to slaughter things that move! The more they struggle, the happier I am!” The man licked his lips with his forked tongue. “Until now, I still can’t forget my adopted parents’ expression. They sacrificed so much to raise me, but they didn’t think they would end up like that! Their constant begging, screams, and humiliations. It’s so exciting!”
The hunchback suddenly charged forward. As he did, he chanted something. Nine Lives moved to block when the hunchback’s body wiggled like a snake. Han Fei saw a flash, and the hunchback had switched locations with Han Fei’s shadow. The scalpel aimed at the back of his heart. Han Fei didn’t expect the hunchback to have this ability!
His heart jumped to his throat. Han Fei would die if he were poked even a bit by a knife.
He rolled forward. The red paper doll in his chest pocket jumped at the scalpel. It raised its hands to grab the blade. The blade was drenched in curses. It poked through the paper doll’s body and cut through Han Fei’s shirt.
Han Fei was covered in a cold sweat. Once he landed, he quickly took out the pig’s heart to eat. Han Fei almost died at the hands of this unknown madman.
“Good. Very good.” Han Fei, at the edge of death, had bloodshot eyes. Since he only had 1 life point, he couldn’t let his guard down. However, what had happened earlier changed his mind.
“Are you praising me?” The hunchback asked with joy.
“I’m not. I just want to teach you a philosophy.” Han Fei gripped Rest in Peace. “Do not challenge another’s professionalism because of your twisted hobby!”
Big Sin crawled out of the Ghost Tattoo. It crashed into two of the nearby corridors. The man and the bug charged at the hunchback!
