My Healing Games

Chapter 885 The Style of a Ruthless Bandit

"Da Nie's body is still suffering. We must take back Da Nie's dismembered body no matter what."

Han Fei was well aware of the Great Evil's strength; dismembering it would be extremely difficult. He hoped that the people in the new city would not underestimate it.

With the help of the Yin Merchant, Han Fei made contact with those hidden wandering ghosts. This time, he planned to directly kidnap people and plunder them in the most violent way. Therefore, he could not reveal his identity as an investigator. For him, the best option was to pretend to be a ghost.

"People in the city are afraid of ghosts, but what they don't know is that many ghosts are actually people in disguise. Fear and danger are what make them willing to do anything."

Power is intoxicating; once you gain power, you can blur right and wrong and distort the truth.

Han Fei did not return to the Investigation Bureau. When the sun sank below the horizon, the dilapidated statues hidden underground in the city were lit up. It was a dark and windy night, and a hundred ghosts roamed the streets.

"I am both an official and a bandit. If I want to survive in this chaotic world, I really can't be bound by the rules."

Black eyes opened behind Han Fei. Da Nie clearly sensed the location of his body. They were divided into five parts and stored in the laboratory on the outskirts of Hope New City.

Because of its unique characteristics, the Great Evil successfully attracted the attention of the Hope City management. A large number of professionals studied it day and night, making it extremely difficult to take away all its bodies.

“Limbs, skin, torso, heart…” Han Fei memorized the location of all the buildings, and standing in the shadows, he silently looked at the massive new city.

"Hope New City is severely corrupted. Some of the administrators are secretly making deals with Hatred. The current peace is only because Hatred is preparing a city-wide blood sacrifice on the day of the god's birthday! They are constantly numbing New City."

Han Fei straightened up, and black mist began to appear behind him: "Today I will tear apart the illusion of peace in Hope New City and kick it awake from its dream."

It is hoped that the many managers of the new city are also constantly weighing their options. One side seeks to negotiate with the ghosts and try to make contact; the other side is a staunch advocate of war, determined to fight the vengeful ghosts to the very end.

When the new city was first established, the pro-war faction still held the majority, but as time passed and people settled down again, more and more people forgot their grief and felt that maintaining the status quo was not bad.

Han Fei wasn't too clear about these internal struggles, but today he was going to give the pro-war faction a gift, allowing them, who had been suppressed for so long, to stand up again, refuse to come into contact with hatred, investigate the new city, and guard against the blood sacrifice on the day of the gods' birthday.

“I didn’t want to do this either, but it seems like I had no other choice.”

An unfamiliar hatred was rapidly approaching, and Han Fei's gaze gradually sharpened.

He first had the Yin merchants use the broken statues to lure the two Hatreds closest to the new city out of the Black Tower, drawing them to the vicinity of the new city and causing them to clash with the new city's guards.

After luring some people away, launch a full-scale attack on the building containing the giant monster's body.

Only he could accomplish this. The broken statue concealed an unfamiliar and ineffable divinity, and this divinity, which could be extinguished at any moment, had a tremendous attraction to hatred.

"Get ready to take action!"

After the second stage of the shrine's memory world was unlocked, hatred could move freely. Han Fei waited until the ever-expanding ghost realm collided with the equipment installed in Hope City before emerging from the shadows. He took out the paper doll mask he had prepared in advance, and his body was also wrapped in blood-red paper dolls.

"From now on, the blood-red paper dolls will probably become the nightmare of the new city..."

Hopefully, New City is well aware of the hatred in the vicinity. They have rehearsed similar scenarios many times. The members of the New City Guard quickly assembled, and the residents near the buffer zone evacuated to the city. A series of curse barriers specifically designed to target ghosts and monsters were activated.

Everything was proceeding in an orderly manner, but they overlooked Han Fei. No one could have imagined that someone could hide a ghost in the brain and bring it inside the protective circle.

As long as the abyss of greed is not opened, the New City detection equipment will be unable to detect the ghost imprisoned by Han Fei, making him a variable who can influence the battlefield.

“There are several deputy captains in the Investigation Bureau with eighth-level personality awakenings. Hope New City has a population of 600,000, and there should be quite a few survivors with eighth-level personality awakenings. The two 'Hate's' can't really pose much of a threat to them.” After hearing the sounds of fighting over there, Han Fei immediately took action: “Delay will only lead to complications. I need to rescue Da Nie before those eighth-level personality awakeners arrive.”

Han Fei approached the nearest experimental building, where all the rooms were covered with talismans. In order to fight against ghosts and monsters, people had tried everything, from metaphysics to science; anything that could be effective was a research direction for humanity.

"You wicked creature, where is your heart?"

With its dark eyes fixed on the top floor of the laboratory building, Da Nie looked like a bullied, aggrieved little dog.

"It's alright, they will pay the price."

Concealing his presence as he entered the laboratory building, Han Fei activated his master-level acting skills. With the help of his talent for hide-and-seek, he easily approached a researcher on duty.

The other party was completely covered in protective clothing, and by the time they noticed Han Fei, a blade was already at his neck.

"Take me to the top floor and open the door to the innermost laboratory." Han Fei's voice rang out behind the researcher, cold and terrifying.

"I don't know what your purpose is, but I advise you to leave as soon as possible. This is not a place for you. The alarm will sound immediately if any test subject leaves the restricted area. You can't take anything with you!"

"Thank you for telling me this." Han Fei's voice was filled with naked killing intent: "Lead the way."

Avoiding surveillance, the researcher opened all the doors for Han Fei, going up layer by layer. He was confident that Han Fei could not take the experimental results away, which was why he was so cooperative.

"Give up. No matter which faction you belong to, you will eventually be tracked down. Hope New City is the largest survivor stronghold. You can't even imagine the power it possesses." The researcher kindly advised. In his view, Han Fei was just an ordinary person with nothing special about him. Only low-level forces would hire such a desperado to steal experimental data.

"The dikes built for the survivors have now been hollowed out by rats and maggots. You take pride in Hope City, but it only sees you as a sacrifice on its altar." Han Fei walked out of the building, where several surveillance cameras were pointed at him, leaving him no blind spots to hide in.

“I don’t know if I’ll become a sacrifice, but you definitely can’t escape.” The researcher breathed a sigh of relief.

As soon as he finished speaking, beams of bright light shone on Han Fei, and several unfamiliar men's voices came from the mechanical probe: "Put down your weapons immediately! Stop resisting! You have violated Article 147 of the New City Law! You have trespassed into a Level 4 laboratory with the intent to steal classified documents!"

“You’ve misunderstood something.” Han Fei’s paper mask laughed. “I’m not here to steal information. I just want to take back what’s rightfully mine.”

The black mist unfolded behind Han Fei like the wings of a demon. It was as if a dragon in the abyss had opened its eyes. Several streams of hatred tore through the night sky. The peace that had been slumbering in Hope City for many years was shattered by Han Fei's punch!
"Bring all who see you into the abyss!"

Opening the last door, Han Fei saw a crystal core formed from calamity, which was the constantly beating heart of the Great Evil, and also seemed to be an embryo that was nurturing a new life.

"It seems there's another self hidden in your heart...? If your original self dies, it will be reborn in your heart?" This was the first time Han Fei had seen Da Nie's heart, and even through seven layers of protection, he could still clearly sense the intense aura of calamity.

It seemed that Han Fei had guessed correctly, because the blurry ghost in the heart became unusually excited, and the huge heart beat wildly, triggering waves of calamity.

No matter what form the Great Evil takes, it is exceptionally affectionate towards Han Fei, because only Han Fei can give it that feeling of constantly struggling on the brink of death.

"To truly kill you, perhaps only the unspeakable can do it, you little monster." Han Fei touched Da Nie's eyes; his conversation with Da Nie had already frightened the researcher.

There were indeed survivors who kept pets after the disaster, but while researchers had heard of people petting cats and dogs, they had never seen anyone petting someone's eyeballs.

"Come out, let's go and retrieve your other parts that were separated."

The dazzling blade shattered the protective layer, and the enormous heart rushed towards Han Fei impatiently.

"Once the abyss is opened, there is no need to continue hiding it."

Xingfu's giant axe cleaved open the roof, and the black mist of greed descended from above, enveloping the entire building. All those who had witnessed the hatred within the abyss of greed, as well as the experimental subjects, were swallowed up.

Standing on the rooftop, Han Fei looked at the chaotic new city and the flickering lights in every household. Amidst the deafening sirens, he leaped off!

The black mist was like an ocean, and large fish supported Han Fei's body. As he moved toward the next building, the Yin merchants who had been waiting for a long time also began to make their move. They split into three groups, with humans and ghosts cooperating, determined to take away all of Da Xie's dismembered body!
"The eighth personality awakener from Xincheng should be arriving soon, but even Fu Lie, the strongest member of the investigation team, shouldn't be able to stop me now, let alone anyone else."

Han Fei moved forward through the waves of black mist, with the principal, the girl, the nightmare of fear, and the white-haired man—four figures brimming with hatred—disappearing behind him.
