Han Fei and Evil Sin turned to Mr. Mo. Being stared at by the two, Mr. Mo felt suffocated. He quickly explained, “The eye has divinity. This old man is ‘family’ approved by God. Killing him means challenging God directly.”

“How do you know these things?”

“Dictators are the people you mustn’t challenge in this building. You know the dancer, right? He was once a Dictator from above floor 50. After he gave everything, he escaped with the gardener when God was asleep.” Mr. Mo revealed another secret.

“The dancer was once a Dictator?”

“God has killed many people in his life. Many fear and respect him, but not many have helped him. Based on what the dancer said, all the Dictators are people who have once helped God. And they have helped him unconditionally.” Mr. Mo realized the old man’s forehead was bleeding. “In any case, we can’t kill him. That eyeball represents God.”

“I’ve tortured him in any way possible, but he refuses to reveal God’s secret. So the issue is this eyeball.” Evil Soul understood it. He picked up the old man. The fate threads surged to the old man’s head.

“What are you doing?” Mr. Mo was shocked.

“I want to eat God’s eyes and look into his fate.” The director’s body opened up. Evil Soul used all of his strength and readied to consume the eyeball.

“You’re mad!” Mr. Mo saw someone like this for the first time. He grabbed Han Fei, hoping the latter would stop Evil Soul, but Han Fei looked on with anticipation. What if he was God? Why couldn’t they eat God’s eye? Endless fate threads entered the old man’s head. They started to sever the eyeball’s connection with the outside world. The old man was threatened. He started to struggle, but Evil Soul was prepared. He combined his flesh with the old man’s. “You can’t run. Let me taste God’s flesh!”

Scream echoed. The bloodred eye in the old man’s forehead was slowly yanked out. The black rain poured, and the wind blew. The building shook. The special eye glowed. The presence contained easily cut through all the fate threads that approached it. But Evil Soul was not a pushover. Once a fate thread was severed, more would take its place. He wanted to taste Unmentionable. Evil Soul utilized all the fate threads, but he still couldn’t pull the eyeball out of the old man’s head.

“Let me try.” Han Fei forced himself to stand up and pulled out Rest in Peace. He aimed the blade at the connection between the old man’s head and the eyeball. With the cooperation from Rest in Peace, the special eyeball was finally cut off!

When the eyeball left the old man’s head, it exploded in power. Everything inside the building bent to its glow. Evil Soul knew that it would be a problem if the eyeball kept glowing. He didn’t hesitate and swallowed the eyeball!

“Dictators are the wardens of God. They are God’s eyes. It’s one thing to kill them. Now that you’ve eaten God’s eye, you’ll be marked by God forever.” Mr. Mo regretted being involved in this. After eating the eye, Evil Soul used No. 2’s power to try to digest it. Both No. 2 and the garden owner were Unmentionables. The director had part of No. 2’s power, and the eye had part of God’s power. Probably God also didn’t expect someone would dare to enter his building and eat his eye.

The storm outside brewed. No one knew when God would wake up. Evil Soul couldn’t care less. He stabbed all the fate threads he had gathered into God’s eye. “Let me eat you!” The flesh on Evil Soul started to disintegrate, but he didn’t care. If he didn’t consume the eye, the eye would consume. This was a fair and risky game. The single eye started to lose because it had no outside help. With a roar, the eyeball shattered. God’s presence inside it was punctured by fate threads. The fate threads were the lives of endless people. They weaved in the dark to paint a terrifying future. “Xin Lu will be destroyed! The gaming hubs will become coffins! His target is Perfect Life!”

Flesh exploded. The dark future shattered before Han Fei.

“Fu Sheng built Perfect Life to create a heaven in the surface world and use the positive emotions in the world to neutralize the pain in the cryptic world. However, the garden owner and Dream and perhaps even other Unmentionables wanted to use the surface world to affect the real world.” A chill ran up Han Fei’s spine. He thought the three criminal organizations were just puppets of the Unmentionables, but they had a more sinister purpose. All the murders and chaos were just preparation. Perhaps some of them had already infiltrated Deep Space Tech and Immortal Pharma. “No wonder God hasn’t woken up even though the building is in such shambles. His plan in real life might be coming true soon!”

The director’s decaying body rapidly regrew. Evil Soul knew the severity of the situation. Once the garden owner succeeded, more than a few handfuls of people would die.

“Fu Sheng is dead. Li Xue’s teacher might be dead too. Xin Lu’s past heroes are dying. No wonder the ghosts are coming out.” Evil Soul turned to Han Fei. “By the way, your friend who gave you the brain fragment is impressive. Could he have calculated all these? And purposely left his brain fragment here?”

“You mean No. 2?” Han Fei looked at Evil Soul.

“I mean to say you are not fighting them alone.” Evil Soul’s eyes glowed with gore, but he was smiling happily.

“Shouldn’t I tell you that? Do you really think you’re the Good Soul?” Han Fei summoned everyone. He planned to exit the game and told everything he knew to the police. “After I leave, you should stay on the 25th floor and wait for my return!” Han Fei found a quiet room and exited the game. Blood covered everything. In this bloodred space, only Han Fei and the bloody shadow Han Fei summoned could move. The bloody shadow appeared to have something planned, but when he saw the thing behind Han Fei, it stopped. Han Fei turned his head around. He still couldn’t see the bloody man behind him. But he felt that they were no longer standing back to back. Their bodies were joining. “The bloody person behind me should be Mad Laughter, right?” He opened his eyes, and pain came from everywhere. Han Fei pushed open the gaming hub door and staggered to the fridge. As he ate, he calmed down. When the pain lessened, he took out his phone to call Li Xue. Normally Li Xue would answer the call quickly, but this time it rang for a long time. “Did something happen?” Han Fei put on his clothes and ran out of his house. He kept calling along the way, but there was no answer. Han Fei called a cab to the station. Han Fei explained himself to the officer on duty, but the officer was confused too.

He asked many people and finally got the case file room manager to come to see him. He told Han Fei that Li Xue’s teacher had fainted not long after Han Fei left. The elder had many illnesses. It felt like his body had given up. With Han Fei’s insistence, the manager found someone to bring Han Fei to the best hospital in Xin Lu. Han Fei passed through the heavy security and stopped before a sickroom. Li Xue and her two seniors were there.

“Li Xue, how’s your teacher?”

“Not so well.” Li Xue looked helpless for the first time Han Fei knew her.

“Can I go in to visit him?” Han Fei stood outside the room and looked through the window on the door. Li Xue’s teacher appeared to be asleep as he lay there in bed.
