374 It'll Be Fine [2in1]

The grey mist poured into Building 4. The windows couldn’t repair themselves faster than the speed by which Han Fei’s Evil Soul was destroying them. The tenants had not encountered something like this before. There had been fights between tenants but they would never harm the building itself. After all, if the building collapsed, it brought no benefits to anyone. It was no different from suicide.

However, this new soul was different from the others, he saw the rules at Ziggurat as something to be broken. It did not matter that he wished to die but he aimed to bring everyone else down with him!

This action finally convinced the male student of Han Fei’s warning. Only someone that crazy would commit to the things Han Fei had described. The Evil Soul’s actions were so illogically crazy that most of the tenants found them inexplicable.

Initially the tenants in the chat group didn’t take Han Fei’s warning seriously, some of them even wanted to exit their rooms to check out the situation themselves. It was not until the windows started to shatter and the Song echoed in their ears that they started to panic!

Standing beside the window, Han Fei took in the chaos created by the Evil Soul and he pondered how to control the man. The grey mist at Ziggurat surged towards Building 4. The mist was like a sea and the Singer was like a leviathan hidden in the depths, ramming against the building.

‘When Butterfly returns, it will find the place leveled.’ Han Fei was not kidding. The Singer noticed that there was something cooperating with it from inside Building 4. The Unmentionable focused its aggression on Building 4, trying to enter it through the grey mist. Its idea was good but it still couldn’t break through the last layer of defense. It had been prowling outside the Ziggurat for days already, and throughout that period, its hatred and rancor towards Han Fei grew. It had decided to destroy this neighbourhood and spread its curse everywhere. The singer howled like it was bleeding!

The dirge inside the building was instantly suppressed. A giant shadow materialized in the mist. It appeared to be the Singer trying to squish its large body into the Ziggurat!

The Unmentionables were scarier than Pure Hatreds. The Ziggurat was having trouble resisting the Singer’s attacks. Furthermore, it had the Evil Soul’s support from inside. The whole building shook and cracks appeared on the walls. Just as the building was about to collapse, billows of grey mist came out from the underground!

The mist contained a heavier Death Curse, it was almost black in color. A normal person would be affected by the curse within the mist by just looking at it. The black mist gushed out from the underground to try to stop the Singer. Even with the aid from the Evil Soul, the Singer wouldn’t be able to access the Building in a short amount of time.

‘Why is there so much mist hidden underground? Is there a giant cemetery underneath? Whose bodies would be buried there?’ Han Fei was shocked by his own speculation. A normal mass grave couldn’t produce such a unique mist. He suspected there was not a mass grave underneath Ziggurat but instead a ‘unique’ body was buried there. ‘Could it be Fu Sheng?’ Han Fei couldn’t confirm, he only knew that there was a big secret hidden underneath the Ziggurat. ‘Perhaps this is the opening for me to go underground to check it out.’

The glass kept shattering. The senior monster had become the scariest and most cunning presence at Ziggurat. He couldn’t be reasoned with and no one could defeat him.

“We better find a place to hide. Based on his speed, your Evil Soul will reach this floor soon.” The male student stared at the security uniform Han Fei was wearing and the cracks that appeared on the wall. He assumed Han Fei’s soul might massacre the tenants, now he realized the soul intended to bring the whole building down with him!

“I doubt hiding will be of any use. When he is close to me, he will sense my presence.” Han Fei said honestly. “Kid, what is the chance of you winning the senior monster?”

“Absolutely zero.” The student was afraid. He knew the man before him for less than 30 minutes but now their lives were tied together.

“Then you better come with me. Bring along Firefly and Lai Sheng, we’re heading underground.” Han Fei didn’t make this decision out of panic. Lai Sheng’s father was a Soul Chaser, he would know the layout of the underground better. When Han Fei was discussing the solution with the male student, the sound of windows shattering suddenly stopped.

“It sounds like it stopped on the 13th floor. Is there a scary tenant on that floor?” The Evil Soul was not going to break the windows in every room. He was not going to challenge all the tenants. He was only going for the weaker ones. He needed to tear out the biggest opening at the Ziggurat in the shortest amount of time.

“I don’t think so.” The male student was confused. “Does that mean we can stay?”

“Don’t leave your life in the hands of others, you should come underground with me.” Han Fei and the male student carried Firefly and Lai Sheng out of the room. By then, the paper doll procession was too busy to care about them anymore.

…

“This is bad, this is bad! The sound of glass shattering is coming to this floor! We’re going to die soon!” Inside Room 4134, 2 males and 1 female hid behind the couch. They were the people Han Fei saved from the dresser world, the mother and Feng Ziyu’s unlucky neighbor as well as the original tenant of Room 4134, Hua Kui, the security guard at Ziggurat.

“In the end, I’ll die at this horrible place!” Feng Ziyu’s neighbor was a fat uncle. When Butterfly captured Feng Ziyu, the uncle was at Feng Ziyu’s place to complain about the noise. He was accidentally captured by the Butterfly and was abandoned in the dresser world.

“Stop fidgeting like a woman. You’re making it hard to focus!” Hua Kui in the only set of clean uniform was ready for a battle. He grabbed the flashlight and rubber baton tightly.

“We should just run.” The middle-aged man crawled up from the ground.

“Bai Sinian told us to wait for him here.” The silent woman finally spoke. “He will return, he promised to help him find my missing child. Also, didn't you think that the laughter outside sound just like him?” Hua Kui and the middle-aged man were too nervous to notice. The woman stopped speaking. She examined the picture in her palm. It was her son. He was cute, and innocent. He wore a pyjama with a little bear print.

“Shush! Something is coming!” Hua Kui was nervous. He stared out the window. The windows above his floor had all been shattered. The wind howled into the building. “It’s here…”

Strange noise sounded inside the corridor, it sounded like limbs crawling on the ceiling. The scariest thing was the sound stopped when it passed by Room 4134!

The 3 survivors looked at each other. Their eyes filled with terror. They didn’t dare to make any noise and prayed that the thing outside would leave them be. Perhaps some kind of evil God did hear that prayer because after a few seconds of silence, the anti-theft door started to grow with black blood vessels. The decomposing black blood seeped into the room.

Bang! The locked door was cracked open violently. Crazed laughter echoed into the room. Segments of skulls extended out from the spine. Two bloody arms slammed through the door. The curse swept through the security guard uniform in the living room and surged towards the spot behind the sofa. The 3 in Room 4134 were no match for the senior monster. The wave of yin energy gushed at them. They would not even feel the curse’s pain before their souls were grounded into smithereens.

“The two of you need to go! Try to survive!” Hua Kui was extremely virtuous. He held the baton and guarded the woman. The woman and the uncle backed away but they couldn’t open the window which was sealed by the Ziggurat’s curse.

‘There has to be a reason why such a weak ghost manages to survive for so long.’ A human face opened his eyes on the senior monster’s spine. The face looked just like Han Fei but deviousness etched between his forehead and his lips were curved in madness.

The Evil Soul was extremely clever, he saw something hidden in Hua Kui. Instead of crushing the man with yin energy, he tried to inject the senior monster’s curse into the man. If he succeeded, it was a good thing; if he failed, he lost nothing. The Death Curse morphed into a rope to drag Hua Kui to the back of the senior monster. Hua Kui saw the faces on the monster’s spine.

“Wait, it’s you, Bai Sinian!” When Hua Kui almost fainted from fear, he saw Han Fei’s face, he refused to believe his eyes! “The fuck! We haven’t seen each other for only a few nights, what happened to you?”

The Evil Soul’s eyes swept over Hua Kui, he instantly realized something. “There were some accidents when I tried to combine with my family. I lost part of my memory. Do you know me?” Han Fei’s Evil Soul was as cunning as Han Fei. He knew what to say at any occasion.

“Of course! You are Bai Sinian, the new security guard hired by Ziggurat. You led both of them here.” Hua Kui sighed in relief, he didn’t expect to still be alive. “Bai Sinian is back, there’s no need to run anymore.” The woman stopped running. The middle-aged man hid behind the woman. His legs were shaking. He didn’t even dare to look at the monster.

“You two also know me?” The Evil Spirit’s voice was laced with danger, only a few people dared to lie to him.

“You saved both of us. You’re a very kind person.”

“Kind person? Me?” The hatred on the face deepened. ‘It is as I expected. No wonder when I tried to let the powerful ghost from outside into the building, there was a resistance from my heart. So it is due to my kindness. But shouldn’t kind people go to heaven, why am I in hell instead?’

“You helped us escape from danger and even helped to search for my missing boy. We are at fault that you’ve become something like this.” The woman looked at the monster and felt pained and saddened.

“I can sense pain from you. Are you feeling sorry for me?” The Evil Soul controlled the senior monster to grab the woman and placed her before him. He sniffed the woman and looked into the woman’s face. “Tell me everything about my past and personality. Include every word that I have told you! Perhaps that way I can change back from being a monster, and find the past me.”

The woman’s body was bound by curses. She looked into Han Fei’s handsome and dark face. She didn’t hide anything and told him how kind and precious Han Fei was.

“Such a good person is sent to hell? Is that fair?” The Evil Spirit mobilized the senior monster’s arm and locked the trio on the monster’s back. He then grinned wickedly at the window. “I’m running out of time so we’ll talk as we move. Don’t stop talking, tell me more!” He focused the yin energy on the window, it was the only way to break the seal on the window.

After all the windows were shattered on the 13th floor, the black mist underground exploded again. The black mist gushed towards the Singer.

“Old man, the grave that you mentioned has been activated. The curse from the grave is now tussling with the Singer outside. That means it would have no time to stop us, right?” The black mist floated into Room 4134. The Evil Soul opened its arms. “Since the world is not fair, then what is the point of surviving? Don’t worry, I will shatter all the chains on you. Who dares to stop me, I will crush them into pieces!”

The voice chilled the room. Amidst the echoes of crazed laughter, the senior monster left Room 4134 carrying the 3 hostages with him. The Evil Soul whistled to sense the location of the Singer. He rapidly arrived at the first floor. The window at the corner of the 1st floor corridor was furthest from the Singer. Currently all the black mist at the Ziggurat was gathering towards the Singer. The Evil Spirit finally found the opening he was looking for.

“Old man, your family has been carrying the Death Curse for dynasty. After your family dies, they will come to this place. Do you really wish this curse on your grandson?” The Evil Soul looked at the boarded up window at the corner. “Your juniors have all been embedded into your spine. Your back is supported by the heads of your family. It is time to end this horrible life.” The character Death appeared on the thin arms. The senior monster’s muddled eyes reddened with blood.

“My appearance is a coincidence and a necessity! I can feel the anger and hatred you’ve been suppressing for decades. Bind yourself to me, instead of being kept like livestock, why not use this opportunity to fight back?!”

The senior monster grabbed at the wooden planks on the window. The hatred within him was fully ignited by the Evil Soul.
