Chapter 191: 191

They were so close that Han Fei had no chance to react. The only thing he could do was to close the door to Room 206. Trundling footsteps came from the corridors. Ma Manjiang’s snarl was like a signal and it summoned the other monsters who had been hiding inside the building. Echoes of shouts came from outside the building, the entire student body had surrounded the hostel. With the experience from before, this time Ma Manjiang left no chance up to fate. He put up layers of trap to deprive Han Fei of the choice to even commit suicide.

Bang! The lock on the door loosened. The door was too fragile to withstand something as large as Ma Manjiang. ‘The time for hiding is over.’ Han Fei’s face was void of normal human emotions. He had OI’ Lee hide in the upper bunk while he turned towards the balcony. Among the thick fog, twisted figures flicked in and out of sight. All the monsters had been called to the hostel building. A normal manager mission should not be this difficult, this was all that blue butterfly’s fault. It had made use of its advantage to its maximum, refusing to give Han Fei any chance to survive.

‘For this rebirth, I’ve found everything I need. It’s pointless to commit suicide now, it’ll only make me lose even more memories.’ Han Fei gripped the cup shard tightly in his left hand. He stood on the balcony of Room 206. Inside the building, outside the building, everywhere he turned, there were howling souls and distorted monsters.

Bang! The wooden door was slammed through, the door banged hard against the wall. When Ma Manjiang saw Han Fei, he did not hesitate and charged at his target immediately! He needed to prevent Han Fei from killing himself. This time he would slowly torture Han Fei until he got the information he needed from the man. Dark red blood oozed out from Ma Manjiang’s chest. The blood crawled over the giant body to form a creepy pattern of butterfly wings. The blue butterfly inside Ma Manjiang’s body flapped its wings excitedly when it saw Han Fei!

Han Fei only managed to press the shard against his neck when Ma Manjiang reached the space before him. The 3 mouths on his face yawned like 3 abysses. Ma Manjiang did not go for Han Fei’s vitals. He needed to keep Han Fei alive. The man probably even realized that Han Fei carried the secret of the black box.

The startlingly white jaws bit into Han Fei’s arm. They crunched through the bone. Han Fei’s hand that held the sharp weakened. Ma Manjiang swung his head about like a beast, trying to tear Han Fei’s arm apart from his body. Then he would work on the rest of Han Fei’s limbs. The point was to incapacitate his victim. He couldn’t care less about the pain and despair he’d cause in others, this was the purest sin in humanity.

While Ma Manjiang was fully distracted by Han Fei’s offending left arm with the glass shard, Ol’ Lee who was in the upper bunk jumped out. He picked up the wooden chair in the room and slammed it against Ma Manjiang’s head. The wood splintered and the chair cracked but it left not even a scar on Ma Manjiang. Nothing that came from this school could harm Ma Manjiang. However, Ol’ Lee did not give up because of that. With bloodshot eyes, he jumped on Ma Manjiang’s back and applied a chokehold on the monster from behind. “Young man, go! Leave!”

The silver hair mixed with blood. Ol’ Lee howled as he slammed his fists repeatedly into Ma Manjiang’s ugly head to get the monster to let go of Han Fei.

“Damn you! I never wanted to kill you in real life but you’ve been seeking death!” The face on Ma Manjiang’s chest grimaced in hatred. He gripped behind him and shook his body violently.

Then came the sound of bones snapping. Han Fei’s left arm was cracked. But he had also gotten close to Ma Manjiang. With Ol’ Lee providing the best distraction, this was the opening Han Fei was looking for!

His uninjured right hand took out the scissors draped in hatred. All of the deaths and sacrifices were made for this moment. The chill exploded in the room. When Ma Manjiang’s face turned around, he seemed to see a demon that crawled out from hell. With blood all over his body, Han Fei’s face lit up with a mirthless smile. “It’s time for you to die!”

The blades easily cut through Ma Manjiang’s leathery skin. The tough exterior was vulnerable before the scissors. The human face at the chest was punctured. Gripping the scissors by the handle, Han Fei slid it further down. Ma Manjiang finally had a taste of pain after so many years, his black blood splattered around the bedroom. As a countermeasure, Ma Manjiang bit further into Han Fei’s left arm. Ignoring Ol’ Lee, Ma Manjiang’s burly arms swung at Han Fei again. However, Han Fei already had the next step of his plan in place.

He peeled the scissors out from Ma Manjiang and then aimed it right at his left shoulder. The arm was a bait to distract Ma Manjiang, it had already accomplished its mission. After dying for more than 10 times, the pain from live amputation barely registered in his mind anymore. After abandoning his left arm, Han Fei crawled through Ma Manjiang’s split stomach and into the monster’s body!

Inside Ma Manjiang’s horrible smelling, atrocious looking stomach, there were many different faces. They had different expressions but whenever they saw Han Fei, they would bite madly at his body. With wounds all over his body, Han Fei gritted his teeth and waved the scissors around. Ma Manjiang’s pained wails echoed around the school. He slammed his body into the wall and his big arms reached into his own stomach. Blood and flesh rolled about. When Ma Manjiang caught Han Fei’s legs, the latter also found a human head trapped inside scabs of dried blood inside the monster’s stomach!

Jin Sheng!

The human head’s eyes were closed and the expression was pained. It was covered in blood but Han Fei still managed to identify the young man with one look. Han Fei reached out to hug the human head while he was being pulled out by his legs. As Ma Manjiang dragged him through the folds of flesh, Han Fei tried his best to poke the scissors right at Ma Manjiang’s heart because that was where the blue butterfly was residing. Even if he had to lose both of his legs, Han Fei had to hurt that butterfly!

Compared to Jin Sheng’s head, the butterfly was clearly more concerned about itself. Even though it controlled Ma Manjiang carefully, half of its wings were still clipped by the scissors. The strange pattern that covered Ma Manjiang’s body faded by half. The blue butterfly went berserk. It was determined to drag Han Fei out from Ma Manjiang’s body but Han Fei’s determination to kill was not to be trifled with either. He did not mind losing all of his limbs, but this loop, the damn blue butterfly inside Ma Manjiang’s heart had to die!

Han Fei knew very well that this kind of chance would not come ever again. This was an opportunity that he had traded with multiple deaths!

The battle was gory and primitive. Han Fei’s femurs shattered but the butterfly was not doing so well either. The blood of both parties dyed the room red. Just as Han Fei aimed another plunge at Ma Manjiang’s heart, the large monster trundled towards the balcony. The thing wanted to fall through the building and used its weight to crush Han Fei inside him. Blood showered the wind.

Bang! The body slammed into the ground and bones and guts damaged from the fall. Crimson red blood coughed out from Han Fei’s lips. He was dying. Other than his right hand, he could not feel the other parts of his body anymore. Ma Manjiang was not faring much better than Han Fei. His stomach was spliced right open but more importantly, the butterfly was heavily injured!

The pretty blue butterfly wings were clipped in many places. It lost the energy to fully control Ma Manjiang. The grey fog around the school rolled away and the visibility became much better.

“Let’s go!” Ol’ Lee slid down the pipe from the 2nd floor. He picked up Jin Sheng’s head and tried to carry the injured Han Fei.

“The back entrance key is in Ma Manjiang’s pocket.” Even at that moment, Han Fei’s mind was thinking clearly. There was only one last step to his plan. Ol’ Lee took out the key from Ma Manjiang’s pocket. He shouldered Han Fei and prepared to run but the other monsters were closing in. The heavily-injured Ma Manjiang slowly crawled up from the ground. His ugliest face was pasted on his chest as he stared darkly at Han Fei, “You’re not getting away that easily!”

Ma Manjiang’s sons dropped the dying Wild Hound to the ground. Then, he led his friends out from the hostel front door. From the education block, the bespectacled Lee Xun and Lee Jingmei who was silenced and blinded by golden threads rushed over with the students. Everyone’s face was twisted in hatred. Their eyes glowed with intense hatred for Jin Sheng and Han Fei. They were surrounded.

“Get to the field.” Han Fei whispered to Ol’ Lee. “Try to lure them there.” The ghosts were closing in, Ol’ Lee had no choice but to follow Han Fei’s order. He dragged Han Fei and hurried towards the field. Going to the open field was no different from suicide. Ma Manjiang slowly steadied himself. He rubbed his stomach and controlled all the ghosts in the school to chase after Han Fei. In just a few minutes, Ol’ Lee and Han Fei were cornered, they were trapped in the middle of the field.

After Ma Manjiang was heavily injured, the oppressing grey fog had faded greatly but that only gave Ol’ Lee and Han Fei a clearer view of their imminent deaths. Almost everyone at the school was standing against them. All the faces were twisted beyond rationality.

“Ma Manjiang is the real killer! He has raped that poor girl!” Ol’ Lee exclaimed futilely. The students had no ears to listen to him. Lee Xun and Lee Jingmei already knew the truth but they chose to side with the monster.

Snap!

The cracked Chuxia was shoved out from the crowd. Lee Xun yanked her up by her hair and forced her to look at Ma Manjiang. The girl was so afraid that her body was trembling. Facing the three adult teachers, she just wanted to hide. The cracks on her body started to fall. Her once beating heart died. Light departed from her eyes. She finally slumped her head and collapsed to the ground.

Wild Hound, Zhang Guanxing wheezed helplessly among the bushes. The 60 plus Ol’ Lee shielded Han Fei as he forced the students back. But eventually blood gashes appeared on his body. The ending was determined. The female teacher was murdered, Wild Hound was dying, Ol’ Lee was overwhelmed. Facing the endless ghosts and monsters from the school, Han Fei held the head in his chest.

“Is it because of these that you have chosen death in the end?” Despair, helplessness, there was no one Jin Sheng could trust and rely on in his world anymore.

“Your deaths have not changed anything.” Ma Manjiang who was controlled by the blue butterfly stood among the crowd. His broken face was coloured with venom and condescension. “Other than these few dead ghosts, no one will believe Jin Sheng, he will never escape from this school! Never! And you will stay here forever as well!”

All the monsters had gathered at the field, there was no escape.

“Even with the grey fog gone, the world is so despairingly oppressive, is that why you still refuse to open your eyes?” Han Fei looked around. All the monsters at the school, including Ma Manjiang were encroaching on him and Ol’ Lee. “I can understand your pain now but I wish to tell you one more thing.” He had Ol’ Lee shove the back entrance’s key into Jin Sheng’s mouth but the key was stuck inside the thick blood scab. It barely touched Jin Sheng. “Even though the world might be horrible, as long as we never give up, there will be people who are willing to believe in us!” Han Fei raised Jin Sheng’s head in his right arm and his face deepened with unbridled madness. “I’ll prove it to you.”

Blood rained as his consciousness entered the menu. Han Fei held Jin Sheng’s decapitated head high and his bloody lips uttered the two words. “Spirit Farer!”

The menu was submerged in red. It creaked open like the door of hell. Ghost faces with names between their bites rushed out!

After Han Fei attempted and failed to control the sea of ghost faces, he grabbed a passing empty face and wrote down Huang Yin’s name. The blood sea boiled. Jin Sheng’s world shook. In an extremely short amount of time, a ghost face leaped out from the sea and escaped from the door. Han Fei kept his eyes on the ghost face. The summoned spirit would appear anywhere 100 metres around him, Han Fei could not control the location. Han Fei prayed that the person would land far away from the crowd of monsters. After the door of hell closed, a figure materialized between the field and the front door!

Huang Yin landed on his butt and then he heard Han Fei’s screeching yell. “Huang Yin!”

Using his last bit of strength, Han Fei lobbed Jin Sheng’s head over the crowd towards Huang Yin. “Run! Take it and leave this school!”

Han Fei had no other option left. He was in the middle of a manager mission, his menu was greyed out. He could not quit the game or access his inventory. Of all his active skills, only Spirit Farer was usable because it too was a manager talent.

The plan was to use Spirt Farer to mobilize a greater demon from the sea of blood but Han Fei was still too weak to manipulate the sea. In the end, he placed his last hope on Huang Yin instead. There was no hurdle on the field. He was able to spot Huang Yin easily. The school’s front gate was open and the back gate’s key was in Jin Sheng’s mouth. No matter where Huang Yin appeared, be it near the front or back door, he would be able to escape easily. Han Fei had done everything he could, he would leave the rest to fate.

Huang Yin was stunned. When he turned to Han Fei’s voice, he saw the man who was barely in human shape anymore. He had no idea what happened but in that moment, he chose to believe in Han Fei. Jin Sheng’s head fell near him. If he was not a doctor, he would have run away in fear already. Picking up Jin Sheng’s head, Huang Yin’s face was drained of blood. When Huang Yin lifted his head again, the monsters on the field were already moving towards him.

Without another order from Han Fei, he knew what to do. Hugging Jin Sheng’s head, Huang Yin charged towards the school’s front gate as fast as he could!
