My Iyashikei Game

Chapter 779: Inside

The harbinger of a new era had to be inquisitive, cooperative and had teamwork and the willingness to sacrifice. Han Fei had all that. He worked together with the elder to open up a strange ghost door in another person’s territory. With great risk, he summoned the unknown monster from the red sea.

The elder watched the red spreading behind Han Fei, and his eyes watered, “Have you lost your mind?” Han Fei didn’t know what was inside the red sea. He just wanted to run. Sensing the presence of the room, the strange plant on the elder’s back withered. It was so scared that it didn’t dare to bloom anymore. Even the knocking had stopped. The door lock jiggled and fell to the ground. The door slowly opened, and a boy carrying a schoolbag appeared at the door. As God’s 11th creation, the boy was extremely strong. As the black rain touched him, it turned red. “Uncle, Grandpa, can you let me stay for one night?” The innocent voice said. The zipper of his bag opened on its own and an arm covered in wounds crawled out to grab at Han Fei’s neck.

“Run!” Han Fei pushed open the window. As he was about to jump, he heard a crunching sound. He turned back and saw the arm fall to the ground. There was a teeth mark near the stump. Strange noises came from the room. Blood capillaries crawled on the walls and dominated half of the living room. Han Fei hadn’t seen the appearance of the monster but its presence alone was enough to make Han Fei and the elder’s breathing stop. It was time for the door to close, but the monster used its body to stop that from happening.

“How can you be so rude?” The boy looked at the bitten arm. His clear eyes turned murky with pure evil. “Why would you bite dad’s arm?” The schoolbag leaked with blood. Arms made from body parts crawled out of the bag and charged into the room. The boy was very powerful, but no matter how hard he attacked the room, all the arms would be destroyed. With a growl, the monster appeared to have shaken the shackles of the blood sea. It squeezed through the door and dyed the whole building red.

“What have you summoned?” The elder felt like his soul was about to be sucked away.

“If I knew, I would tell you!” Han Fei panicked too. As the person who summoned the monster, he was irrevocably connected to it. In other words, that monster could sense his location. “If I use Resurrection on the monster, will it return to the red sea or the surface world?”

Discovery always came at a price. Han Fei was thankful that he did his experiment away from home.

“Stop looking! Run!” Han Fei was kind to the elder. He left the boy to deal with the monster while he grabbed the elder by his neck and jumped down the window. After the two left, the fight between the boy and the monster became real. The whole building was red as the boy cried. All the windows shattered. Occasionally, a red shadow flashed by. The boy’s schoolbag was like an endless abyss. Many bodies crawled out of it to create a cage. The boy tried to trap the blood shadow, but the latter was too fast. The cries echoed in the rain. The silent street trembled. Listen had arrived too. It lifted its head to bite at the monster from the red sea.

“Stop looking! This is where we part!” The elder didn’t want to stay with Han Fei anymore. He was afraid of God’s creations and Han Fei.

“Okay!” Han Fei only needed the elder to distract the monsters. Now that the monsters had been distracted, he wanted to run to the outer zone. That was a good idea, but both of them were deep in the black rain zone. The skyscraper was right before them. It was too late to escape.

At that moment, Han Fei saw a strange man in a red raincoat appear down the street. The man was carrying an urn-like wooden box on his back and holding a wrinkled and bloody picture in his hands.

“What is this?”

“Notification for Player 0000! You’ve discovered God’s 12th Creation—Messenger.

“Messenger (Unique Lingering Spirit): They are spirits wandering between the skyscraper and the outside zones. No one knows what they look like. They are responsible for relaying God’s message.

“Warning! There are a lot of messengers. They can contact each other. Killing one messenger is easy, but can you kill them all?”

Han Fei looked at the approaching messenger, and he caught back up to the elder. “Sir, we should go together!”

“Stop following me!”

“Sir, I mean no harm!” Han Fei explained, “There’s a monster in a raincoat behind us. Have you seen them before? They seem to be carrying a picture of our faces. What does that mean?”

“Leave!” The elder’s body was soaked by the black rain. When he saw the messenger, his face paled and he started to run. Han Fei followed him. “Sir, we should move together. How am I supposed to survive without you?”

When they exited the street, the elder suddenly stopped. Han Fei almost crashed into him. “What’s wrong?” He noticed the elder was shivering. He looked down the junction. In just half an hour, many messengers in black and red raincoats walked out of the nearby buildings. They were all carrying broken limbs and human pieces. They were like worker ants who were collecting ingredients for God.

“It’s over now…” The elder fell to the ground. His mutated body was shaking. He had given up. “There’s no other way. There might be other God’s creations around. We can’t escape.” The elder’s voice was filled with despair. Han Fei, with 1 life point, didn’t want to have a conflict with the messengers either. He looked around, and the messengers were everywhere. The only unblocked path led to the skyscraper.

‘The messengers came from the skyscraper. They wear raincoats and hide their faces. They most likely live in the skyscraper. Since they can leave the building, the rest of us should be able to as well.’ Han Fei was a player. Once he stayed for more than three hours and finished a mission, he could log out. The chance of him triggering a mission inside the skyscraper was very high. “The most dangerous place is the safest place. Sir, I have a crazy idea. I want to temporarily hide inside the skyscraper and survive this ordeal first.” Han Fei wasn’t just saying that.

“Don’t be silly. Even ghosts won’t believe that.” That was what the elder said, but his body moved with Han Fei. No one wanted to die, especially if they had unfulfilled wishes.

“No matter what, I can’t die here.” Han Fei rushed towards the skyscraper. He carried everything in his inventory. Other than his 1 Life Point, he was the strongest he had ever been. The skyscraper loomed before them. Han Fei’s earlier plan was to take down the black rain zone little by little. However, the plan was ruined. The various incidents forced Han Fei to make this rash decision. Han Fei and the elder ran to the building next to the skyscraper. The messengers gathered around them. When the messengers were distracted, Han Fei and the elder charged at the skyscraper. When Han Fei was close, he realized how giant the building was.

It connected heaven and earth. It was more like a city that was built vertically than a normal building. The black rain fell on the outer walls. Han Fei and the elder didn’t have time to take in the scenery. They ran into the building.

A thunder crashed. The dark clouds split open like God had opened his eye.

“Notification for Player 0000! You’ve entered an unknown map!

“This map is highly dangerous! The initial difficulty is grade D, but there might be grade C areas!

“Notification for Player 0000! Please leave the map in an hour!”

The black rain dripped on the ground. The elder looked at the darkness around them, and he wailed, “I must be crazy to listen to you! No one will be able to leave this place after entering it!”

“You must have been brainwashed by God. If no one can leave this place alive, then what about those Messengers? Can’t they leave normally?” Han Fei didn’t argue with the elder. He sensed the red sea monster. The monster’s connection with Han Fei was still there. “Even the boy and Listen can’t kill it?”

Another reason Han Fei wanted to enter the skyscraper was the red sea monster. He didn’t want to lead the monster back to the theme park.

“It’s pointless to complain now. We should try our best to survive.”

Han Fei stood on the older ladder and looked around. The inside of the skyscraper was complicated. There were twenty elevators moving around. The strange thing was some of the elevators were new and modern, while others were from the vintage era. The whole skyscraper was absurd. It felt like five decades were gathered in one location. “The Messengers will be back soon. We need to find a place to hide.”

Han Fei studied the numbers on the elevators. Most of the elevators were in use. He didn’t dare to use them, so he dragged the elder to enter the corridor on the most left-hand side. The steps were painted with peeling red paint. The walls were pasted with strange talismans and confusing drawings.

Han Fei came to the second floor. He looked out into the corridor. The many corridors were mixed and matched together. It felt like the temporary home of fugitives. The apartments were small and squeezed together. Some of them had been modified into clinics, shops, and eateries.

“This place gives me a bad feeling!” The elder didn’t want to stay on the second floor. He and Han Fei continued to move up. The steps became cleaner. The third floor was still a mix-bag of apartments and shops. However, at a junction where two corridors crossed, a few apartments were joined together to form a private kindergarten. “Why is there no one here when the place feels so alive?”

“How is the place alive?” The elder shook his head and grabbed Han Fei to move further up the stairs.
