Looks like there are many people who are willing to help me. "
Chen Ge and Ying Tong opened their eyes. They faced this bloody and cruel world head on and did not run away anymore.
The addition of more Red Specters put pressure on Ying Chen. The whole building was shaking, and the dead bodies on the wall started to peel off in large amounts. Each of the dead bodies was hiding deep resentment and curses.
The world behind Ying Tong's door appeared to have been used by the ghost fetus as a breeding ground for curses. The curses behind this door were more powerful than any of the doors that Chen Ge had entered before.
"Chen Ge, of Ying Chen's faces, only one is real, and that face is his weakness." Ying Tong, who opened his eyes again, had found someone to rely on. Compared to Ying Chen, the boy felt like Chen Ge was more like his big brother.
Even in a completely dark world, even when he could not see anything, Chen Ge still stubbornly told Ying Tong about the beautiful world that was filled with color.
For Ying Tong, who was trapped in darkness and despair, Chen Ge's words strengthened his heart, and he would not waver.
The reason he was able to open his eyes was because Chen Ge had risked his life for it.
The world behind the door was weaved from the door pusher's memory. The words that Chen Ge had told Ying Tong, he would not only not forget them, he would remember them at the bottom of his heart, and they would become the warmth that would accompany him for the rest of his life.
The boy did not become someone like Ying Chen. It was not easy for him to survive until now.
Actually, through the earlier conversation, Chen Ge had understood Ying Tong's thoughts. The boy had bet everything on his fourth escape. If he failed again, he might choose to give up.
Fear of sharp weapons, fear of being enclosed, fear of screaming, the three escapes had left a deep psychological scar on Ying Tong. Even so, he did not give up. He was already stronger than most adults.
The dead bodies that were entangled by the black curses reached for the Tunnel Lady's son. They hugged the giant legs and used what they thought was justice to stop the monster before them.
When their eyes were blinded, what these people saw was an illusion, and that was what Ying Chen had been doing all this time.
From appearance alone, the Tunnel Lady's son looked more like a monster than any of the people there. In the eyes of the bystanders, this giant spider was chasing after Ying Chen, so this spider had to be evil.
But was that really the case?
Ying Chen used this mentality to his advantage. He edited the videos, tortured the cats, and distorted the truth. The most ironic thing was, he even posted the videos on a website where cat lovers gathered to earn money.
To stir up trouble, he used a human skin to hide his abscessed heart.
At that moment, Chen Ge once again experienced Ying Tong's pain. His freedom was restricted, and he could not speak. After the few who knew the truth were killed, the only thing left in his world was darkness.
"Don't worry, I will tear off all of Ying Chen's faces." Chen Ge narrowed his eyes as he stared at Ying Chen.
The bastard was eating away at the curse. He hid in the 'crowd' and used the bodies around him as cover.
This scene was similar to how Ying Chen had chased his relative away. When he was not confident that he could kill his relative, he would use the people around him. He would do anything to achieve his goal. This was a perfect example of the saying.
"The biggest difficulty of Ying Tong's door is how to open his eyes. The ghost fetus has already missed the best chance to kill me."
Of the nine children, only one was the ghost fetus behind the door. The other eight were the lingering consciousness attached to an object. This consciousness would not make a subjective judgment. It would only act according to the rules behind the door. All of its actions would be within the rules of the door pusher's memory.
As Chen Ge's understanding of the 'door' deepened, he started to learn how to use the rules behind the door. The blood world was connected to the real world through the door pusher's memory. As long as he found the corresponding node in the memory, he would be able to come up with the corresponding solution.
Therefore, to gain more control in the world behind the door, he had to understand the door pusher's past. He had to understand the door pusher's past and know the deepest pain hidden in the door pusher's heart.
Several Red Specters worked together. The blood vessels seeped into the building, and the eyes of the dead bodies gained a trace of red.
Chen Ge chose the most direct method to fight for the control of the world behind the door. This door was weaved from Ying Tong's memory. Now that Ying Tong was on his side, he had the confidence to complete this task.
The Tunnel Lady's son and Foul Odor probably attracted the attention of most of the dead bodies due to their large size.
The other Red Specters slid through the gaps that surrounded the dead bodies, especially Xiao Bu. When the dead bodies got close to her, they would disintegrate into a puddle of stinking blood. The girl's power was far beyond Chen Ge's expectation.
Screams and wails filled the building. To Chen Ge's surprise, Xu Yin and the red high heels appeared on the other side of the stairs. They sensed the danger that Chen Ge was in, and they rushed over the moment they broke through the restriction of the world behind the door.
More and more helpers appeared. Other than that, Chen Ge realized that Mr. Wood and Miss Red were very powerful as well, especially Miss Red.
The woman was about the same age as Ying Chen. She had a small frame and thin arms. Her shirt was soaked in blood. She was the only person covered in blood behind the door.
She was as powerful as a Red Specter, but she was different from a normal Red Specter. She could not control blood vessels, and the curses on the wall that targeted living people were ineffective against her.
When she was standing next to Ying Tong, Chen Ge did not feel anything, but after she made her move, Chen Ge realized that this woman was more like a cat than a human, a graceful, cold, and bloody cat.
"Miss Red?"
This Miss Red only stood next to Ying Tong and never left his side. She was hostile toward everyone. Even if it was Mr. Wood and Auntie Wu, she did not want to get close to them.
This was the first time that Chen Ge had encountered such a strange person. Chen Ge really wanted to know what kind of memory had created this Miss Red.
"Perhaps the Miss Red outside the door is a unique Red Specter." With that thought in mind, Chen Ge made up his mind. After he left this door, he would help all the people who had been killed by Ying Chen and give them the justice that they had been waiting for.
The Tunnel Lady's son and Foul Odor held up most of the dead bodies. The remaining bodies could not pose any threat to Chen Ge, and the distance between them and Ying Chen continued to close.
The two parties had switched roles, and the situation on the battlefield had changed.
"After Ying Chen absorbs the curse on the whole building, things will become more difficult. I cannot afford to give him the time." Chen Ge had made up his mind. Even though he knew that this was the world behind the door, and the Ying Chen before him was just a part of Ying Tong's memory, he still did not plan to let the man go.
It was too dangerous. From the moment he entered the world behind the door to the moment he opened his eyes, the whole process did not take that long, but every step was filled with trepidation. The slightest mistake would have cost him his life.
This was a high-intensity game of life and death, and his mind was on edge the whole time. Chen Ge had exhausted a lot of his energy. Now that he had finally gained control of the situation, he had to kill the man once and for all.
There were too many dead bodies. Ying Chen had blended into the crowd. Even a Red Specter would not be able to find him in a short amount of time, but Ying Tong could.
Ying Tong knew Ying Chen's real identity. No matter how Ying Chen tried to hide, Ying Tong would be able to find him at first notice.
With the cooperation of so many Red Specters, Ying Chen was finally cornered.
He stopped before his own home on the seventh floor. The corridors on both sides were blocked, and the whole corridor was covered in blood vessels and spider webs.
"You …" Ying Chen wanted to say something, but Chen Ge did not want to give the man the time to do so. If he could kill the man directly, why would he waste time?
In fact, Chen Ge felt like giving someone like Ying Chen the chance to speak was a sign of disrespect to the dead.
"I'll destroy the soul of the person behind the door first, and then I'll go and send the real you to the police station."
With the addition of the Tunnel Lady's son, Chen Ge's tactics became more versatile. This Red Specter could plunder the dead's memory to create a dream. It was effective even in other people's worlds behind the door. After all, the monsters behind the door were all created from the memory of the door-pusher.
In other words, as long as the Tunnel Lady's son was around, no matter how many Specters and monsters there were, they would not be able to pose any threat to Chen Ge.
The Tunnel Lady's son specialized in group attacks. With him holding the others back, all of Chen Ge's Red Specters would be able to surround and attack the others without fear.
Before Ying Chen could fully absorb the curse of this building, he was already surrounded by Red Specters. To make matters worse, Chen Ge did not give him any chance to stall for time. He did not even allow him to speak. Instead, he gave everything he had to kill. This was the first time that he had encountered an opponent like this.
The faces were torn apart one after another. Ying Chen's body was on the verge of breaking apart. It was only the black threads formed by the curse that held him together.
"Chen Ge, I saw it." Ying Tong stared at Ying Chen, who was not far away. His eyes had never shone so brightly before. "His real face is hidden at his heart!"
When Ying Tong said that, Miss Red had already weaved through the crowd. Her bloodied hand reached out to grab Ying Chen's heart.
The sharp fingers pierced through Ying Chen's chest, and the face on his chest was torn open.
"Ah!"
All of Ying Chen's faces screamed. Then his facial features melted like ice, and he morphed into the appearance of a baby. However, this baby's eyes were strangely beautiful, like gems.
"Ghost fetus!" Chen Ge's eyes narrowed. This man had been luring Ying Chen from the shadows. He had the power to stop the tragedy from happening, but he not only did not stop him, he continued to deepen the resentment in Ying Chen's heart, trying to drag Ying Chen deeper into despair.
"Do you hate happiness that much? Do you really want everyone to become like you? " Chen Ge wanted to talk to the ghost fetus, but unfortunately, the thing that was attached to Ying Chen was merely a lingering spirit of the ghost fetus.
Most of the curse that connected the whole building had not been absorbed, but Ying Chen had lost his chance.
Several Red Specters tore him apart, and in the truest sense, they had managed to destroy his soul.
Cracks appeared on the stairs, and the dead bodies that served as bricks started to fall off. But perhaps because there were still many lingering curses, the collapse of this world was especially slow.
After witnessing Ying Chen's death, the knot in Ying Tong's heart was completely unraveled, and light returned to the bottom of his eyes.
He led Mr. Wood and Miss Red to find Miss Dress while Chen Ge stood at the spot where Ying Chen had died.
When the curse dissipated, there was an additional picture on the ground.
Reaching out to pick up the picture, Chen Ge studied it closely. It appeared to have been taken by his father.
In the picture, there was a sea of flowers. The young Chen Ge stood in the middle of it with a rather nervous expression. He seemed to be afraid of the bees that were flying around him.
The sun shone on his body, and he and his shadow made the same pose for the camera.
"This is a very beautiful world. You've seen it before."
Putting the picture away, the building became more unstable. Chen Ge quickly led his employees to search for his backpack and hammer.
When Chen Ge returned, he realized that the red high heels was madly absorbing the remaining curses inside the building.
Strange black patterns appeared on the red high heels. Just a glance at them would cause one's hair to stand on end.
Of all the Red Specters, only the red high heels was not afraid of curses. Her power was related to curses.
When Chen Ge interacted with the ghost fetus several times, the red high heels was the biggest winner. The other Red Specters shared the negative emotions and resentment, but she alone received all the curses from the ghost fetus.
As it continued to accumulate, the presence that the red high heels gave off started to change. Including Xiao Bu and the Tunnel Lady's son, none of the Red Specters were willing to get close to her.
This Red Specter who specialized in curses gave off an extremely unsettling feeling.
"If this continues, she might become a new Top Red Specter." Chen Ge had no idea how powerful the red high heels had become after consuming so many curses. In any case, he knew that even if it was the ghost fetus' curse, the red high heels would be able to absorb and resolve it. "What kind of experience has she gone through?"
Initially, the red high heels followed Chen Ge because she was scared by Zhang Ya, but later, the red high heels' attitude toward Chen Ge started to change, especially after the ghost fetus' Trial Mission started.
"After the ghost fetus mission is over, I need to have a good chat with the red high heels and find out more about her past." The red high heels' original form was a woman covered in bandages. Her getup reminded Chen Ge of the cursed hospital.
After gathering everything, Chen Ge met up with Ying Tong on the seventh floor. They watched as the red high heels sucked away most of the curses in the building.
The dead bodies turned into dust. Before the building collapsed, Chen Ge grabbed Ying Tong's hand and pushed open the black iron door.
With one step, the world turned upside down.
…
Opening his eyes, Chen Ge collapsed to the ground. Exhaustion washed over him like a wave.
Hearing the movement, the boy who was sleeping on the bed woke up. He curled up beside the bed with his eyes closed. The boy was very timid, and there was a faint scar on his face.
"Don't be afraid, Ying Tong." Chen Ge's voice echoed in the room. "I am Chen Ge. I will save you from this place."
The name Chen Ge had a special meaning for Ying Tong. Everything that happened in the nightmare was real.
He tried his best to open his eyes, but probably because he had not opened his eyes for a long time, he was not used to it.
"It's fine. Take your time. Your life in the future belongs to you."
After resting for a while, Chen Ge stood up. The black phone in his pocket kept vibrating like it had received several messages, but he did not look at them.
Taking out the hammer, Chen Ge had a smile on his face. He opened Ying Tong's bedroom door and walked toward it.
