Midnight Butcher was an extremely rare hidden profession in Perfect Life. The profession was incredibly difficult to obtain. To obtain this profession, one had to go through many trials but this also proved the profession's value.
The difficulty of obtaining the profession was directly proportional to the profession's strength. To become a Midnight Butcher, one had to go to the hidden map to complete extremely difficult hidden missions. This was impossible in a normal Perfect Life game.
'What is the point of the system's judgment? It feels like it's giving me a score to see whether I'm compatible with this profession or not. '
After releasing the black cat, Han Fei did not dare to stay where he was. He memorized the location of this junction and continued moving forward.
'The mission given by the system looks simple, I only need to use the knife in my hand to kill but I have a feeling that even if I complete the mission, I might not be able to obtain the profession of Midnight Butcher. This system is useless, cunning and likes to toy with human nature.'
If Han Fei did not know about Cattle Alley, he might have made the choice based on his own preferences but after he found out about Spider in real life, to act as Spider, he purposely went to the meat packing factory's family compound to experience Spider's former life.
As his understanding deepened, Han Fei would ponder a question before he made his choice.
If Spider was in this situation, what would he do?
Without the interference of the other 8 personas, Han Fei considered things from the perspective of Spider's main persona.
'Cattle Alley is the first book written by Spider to record the world in his eyes. In his world, acting according to his thoughts might be the best solution …'
Han Fei thought. He did not move far before the black anaconda retreated. It seemed to have seen something.
'I don't hear any footsteps.'
Out of trust in the black anaconda, Han Fei retreated without hesitation.
After waiting for a long time, Han Fei and the black anaconda reentered the alley.
The stench of blood in the air was clearly thicker, and the muddy path was covered in blood and filth. It was sticky when one stepped on it, and even if one was very careful, one would still step on it with a pitter patter.
'The walls and the ground are covered in undried blood, a brutal battle happened here not too long ago.'
Han Fei wanted to leave this place and find another route but the paper doll in his hand reacted. It appeared like Xu Qin was right in front of him.
'These blood stains are related to Xu Qin?'
Just as this thought popped up in his mind, his footsteps unconsciously began to move forward. In the dangerous Cattle Alley, the name Xu Qin brought a strange sense of security to both Han Fei and the black anaconda.
In order not to make a sound, he walked very slowly.
The stench of blood and stench in the air was suffocating. When Han Fei turned a corner, he narrowed his eyes.
A large pig-faced monster collapsed on a pile of trash. There was a large hole in its stomach and its chest was still rising and falling.
The mask on his face was full of cracks and was severely damaged. A baby-like cry could be heard coming from under the mask.
The cry was very weak. The pig-faced monster seemed to be dying.
"Who did this to him?" When he saw the half-dead pig-faced monster, his pupils narrowed. His leg muscles tensed and he pulled out the bone-paring knife.
The mission could only be completed by killing, and there was a perfect opportunity in front of him.
The pig-faced monster was extremely weak. It was so heavily injured that it could not even move. This was a godsend opportunity.
'The hole on its stomach is a laceration and Xu Qin's weapon is a table knife. In other words, it's not Xu Qin who injured it but something else.' As he slowly approached, the blade in Han Fei's hand was also shaking. The family of six wanted revenge. Their hatred was almost tangible, sharpening the edge of the blade.
As he approached, Han Fei's brain spun rapidly, he considered all the details that he might have missed.
'The monster was not injured by Xu Qin. The blood is spurting out, the whole alley is covered in flesh and blood. It's obvious that it was chased here by something. The culprit is enjoying the pleasure of torturing its prey. Why would a creature that likes to torture its prey be so kind as to let its prey go? '
Before Han Fei exited the alley, he saw a wooden door next to the injured pig-faced monster was pushed open.
A pig-faced monster that was almost 3 metres tall and had one of its eyes poked blind appeared.
The lower half of its mask was ruined, revealing the ugly face of a pig. It held a heavy bone-paring knife in its right hand and a long string of human heads tied up with hemp rope in its left hand.
'That's it?!'
Han Fei's eyes reddened instantly. The wounds on his shoulder and arm were all thanks to this pig-faced monster!
He used all his strength and finally took advantage of his opponent's carelessness to blind one of his eyes.
'It seems to have grown stronger?' A dangerous light shone in Han Fei's eyes. 'As long as I can kill that dying pig-faced monster, I'll have completed one mission. Unfortunately, there's another condition to exit the game, I have to stay in the game for at least 3 hours. It's not time yet. '
When Han Fei saw the monster, a plan to snatch food from the tiger's mouth appeared in his mind.
He wanted to use his own knife to kill the pig-faced monster. Once the mission was completed, he would log off from the game.
If not for the time limit, he would have snuck up behind the pig-faced monster already.
'I can't leave the game. Even if I manage to snatch the kill, I won't be able to escape in my current condition.' Han Fei was like a venomous snake hiding in the dark. His eyes were glued to the pig-faced monster's back. He could save an injured cat or he could kill a monster that had lost its humanity.
'I need a chance.'
The pig-faced monster dragged the human head out from the old house. It looked around and then stomped heavily on the other monster's wound.
It seemed to be hoping for the other monster to scream in pain so it could attract something to it.
After a few stomps, blood soaked through the trash heap.
It was a monster with a pig's face but its blood was as red as a human's. This seemed to be telling Han Fei that they were once human as well.
The wound tore open. The pig-faced monster slowly stopped struggling. Its pupils dilated and its clenched fingers loosened.
Putting down the human head, the pig-faced monster appeared dissatisfied. It hissed and then raised the cleaver in its hand.
It wanted to use its cleaver to decapitate its own kind and then imprison its ugly soul inside its own cleaver.
'Even pig-faced monsters will kill each other? Or does this pig-faced monster attack everything indiscriminately because its mask is broken? '
Han Fei observed everything quietly. His eyes were cold and emotionless. The murderous intent was perfectly hidden by his masterful acting.
The cleaver was raised. The pig-faced monster cackled. When it swung the cleaver at the monster's neck, the monster who had given up suddenly shifted its body to the side.
The heavy cleaver slashed into the monster's shoulder blade. The moment the cleaver was stuck in the bone, the pig-faced monster with unfocused pupils let out a shrill shriek!
Its body bounced up like a fish. Then it reached out to grab a hidden dagger from its open stomach.
Its 5 fingers gripped the dagger tightly and then it stabbed at the other pig-faced monster's chest.
This was too sudden, no one expected the dying monster to retaliate.
The pig-faced monster released its grip on the cleaver but it was still one step too late. The dagger pierced through its chest and sliced out a long gash.
The monster on the ground was too weak or else the dagger would've pierced through its heart.
The pig-faced monster did not expect to be ambushed. In a fit of rage, it grabbed its own kind and slammed it against the wall.
The entire alley seemed to be shaking as the two 'beasts' of astonishing size fought each other.
The monster with the gaping hole in its stomach knew it was not going to survive so it tried its best to make noise to attract more danger. It wanted to drag the 'person' who killed it down to hell with it.
After a final struggle, the pig-faced monster's head was chopped off by the cleaver. Even its dagger was broken by the cleaver.
When the dagger broke, 4 wailing souls were sucked into the cleaver.
The already horrifying looking bone cleaver now had a few more bloody marks on it. The chilling aura it emitted was even thicker, and the hatred that lingered on it was getting stronger.
Kicking its own kind's head away, the pig-faced monster clutched the wound on its chest and spat out several mouthfuls of blood at its comrade's dead body.
Feeling that was not enough, it continued to smash its opponent's bones.
Venting its anger did not improve its condition. After the wound tore open further, it leaned against the wall and prepared to leave with the cleaver.
The blood dripped onto the ground, but it didn't notice that there was a cold gaze staring at it from behind.
'I've found the most suitable prey.'
Han Fei silently walked out from his hiding spot. He looked at the pig-faced monster's decapitated head and reached out to remove the monster's pig mask.
