Moving his feet, Han Fei realized Xu Qin did not follow him. When he turned back, Xu Qin's body was leaning to the side.
Xu Qin who had opened the cursed door was in an extremely weakened state. She could not even move, this was the side effect of stabbing the table knife.
Han Fei reached out to support Xu Qin. To Han Fei's surprise, he did not use Soul-Depth Touch but he still managed to touch Xu Qin's body. It felt like Xu Qin had completely let down her guard.
"Let me carry you."
The defenseless Xu Qin had a unique charm to her. Han Fei carried her on his back. The girl's cold arms draped around his shoulders and wrapped around his neck.
Xu Qin had a good figure but she felt very light on his back. It was as if she weighed nothing but her clothes.
Han Fei studied Xu Qin's arms around his chest, they were fair, slender and flawless.
The current Xu Qin gave Han Fei a surreal feeling. He activated Soul-Depth Touch.
Han Fei did it out of kindness, he wanted to understand the real Xu Qin.
But when he activated the power, an unimaginable pressure came from his back!
"Bang!"
Both of his knees slammed into the ground. If not for the blood, Han Fei's knees would have been crushed already.
His spine creaked, his bones were about to shatter. It felt like he was not carrying a human but a sea of curses!
Han Fei quickly stopped using Soul-Depth Touch. With a pale face, Han Fei tried to stand up from the ground.
"Do you need help …" Weep walked over but before he could finish, he was dragged away by Drake.
Looking at the neighbors, Han Fei shook his head and carried Xu Qin on his back with great difficulty.
After knowing the secret of Xu Qin's soul and feeling the real pain in her heart, Han Fei had a better understanding of this big sister next door.
Through the blood, Han Fei walked to Spider, "Thank you for helping her at the last moment."
Hearing Han Fei's gratitude, Spider slowly turned around. He looked much older than before. "I haven't heard people say that to me for a long time but I should be the one thanking you. If not for you and your friends, I would have been under the Butterfly's control already."
"Don't say that, I can sense you have other trump cards but you haven't used them yet." Staring at the two broken hearts in Spider's hands, Han Fei felt quite embarrassed. "Without the hearts, how are you going to control Cattle Alley in the future? If you really can't, why don't you come with me? "
Spider studied Han Fei. Suddenly a smile appeared on her tired face. "Did you pick them up like this as well?"
Han Fei wanted to argue but at that moment, a ghastly scar appeared on Spider's chest. His face darkened even further.
"Is there anything I can help you with?"
"I'm fine."
"Your chest is split open …"
"It's okay." Spider mixed the remains of the Good and Evil Hearts together. Then, she scooped up some blood and placed the tattered heart into her chest. "Good and evil are two sides of the same coin. There's no need to differentiate them so clearly. I was too extreme in the past."
He walked around the ruins of the House of the Butcher, and his body naturally emitted a kind of temperament, as if the end of the world had come, and he was the last person alive in it.
"Found it." Spider found an amulet that looked like a fortune pouch. Han Fei had seen it in the author's room before. The amulet was hanging next to the hidden compartment. "This thing has protected me for a long time. Now, I'll give it to you as a reward for saving me. Remember, only open it when your life is in danger and there is no chance of turning the situation around. "
Seeing how serious Spider was, Han Fei did not reject him. When he touched the amulet, the system audio appeared in his mind.
"Notification for Player 0000! You've discovered Grade F single-use item — Spider's Amulet. You'll only know what is hidden inside this amulet after you open it. "
This amulet was the second Grade F item that Han Fei had obtained, it was very valuable.
"I'm temporarily unable to leave Cattle Alley. The Butterfly will definitely come looking for you, so you'll have to be careful." Spider looked at Han Fei with a smile on his face. His reaction was completely different from how Han Fei imagined Spider to be.
"Actually, I've already been cursed by the Death Tower. The curse will be triggered in 7 days to 1 month. So even if it doesn't come looking for me, I'll go looking for it." Han Fei and the Butterfly were sworn enemies.
"With your current power, I'm afraid you're no match for it." Spider said confidently.
"Can you tell me, what is the Butterfly? I've interacted with it many times but until now, I still don't know if it's a person or a ghost? " Han Fei asked the question that had been on his mind for a long time.
"The Butterfly is a consciousness that can freely traverse between dream and reality. One thing is for sure, the original Butterfly must have been a person! Even though it will attach itself to different people to carry out its plan, it will leave its mark on each person. " Spider looked at the ruined world and said slowly, "Darkness, hatred, arrogance, madness, the desire to destroy is embedded in its bones but it likes to use salvation as a disguise. It has no friends but it has many believers who have been bewitched by it. Those believers have its mark on them, some of them are very scary. "
"Then do you know what the Butterfly's weakness is?"
"The Butterfly will do everything in its power to make you believe in certain things. Once you do, you'll be doomed. Therefore, when you're dealing with the Butterfly, you have to maintain absolute rationality. Do not be tricked by it, not even once. " Spider was silent for a long time before continuing, "The Butterfly has no weakness but I know a way to temporarily trap it."
"Trap it?"
"After the Butterfly's main consciousness crawls into a person's mind, all its secondary consciousness will stop working. Those who have been bewitched by it will temporarily regain consciousness. This is the conclusion I came up with after experimenting with different personalities." Spider shook his head. "But with the Butterfly's cunning nature, it will never act on its own. You won't even get to see its main consciousness before you die from various accidents."
Han Fei tried his best to digest the information given by Spider. Then he started to come up with his own plan. The Butterfly's mortal enemies were only him and Huang Yin.
"If you really want to go to the Ziggurat to find the Butterfly, I can give you another clue." Spider called Ah Meng over. He took out a pen and paper from the girl's bag. He drew out a man that was more androgynous. "This is what my initial split persona looked like, it's very likely to be the Butterfly."
Han Fei memorized the man in the drawing. He planned to report this to the police after he logged out of the game.
Compared to going to the Ziggurat, Han Fei was more interested in dealing with the Butterfly in real life.
The two conversed for a long time in the rubble until the blood receded and Cattle Alley returned to normal.
