'Killing the Eight Heads did not complete the mission, only by freeing Bai Shinian's master can the mission be considered complete. The real guardian of Yi Min Street is actually the most ordinary and unknown person.'
The security company boss was in cahoots with the Ziggurat, all he cared about was his own survival.
Bai Shinian's master was very weak, he was no match for the Ziggurat but through various methods, he tried his best to protect the street.
'The power of the guardian has nothing to do with one's power but what one has done. This is quite similar to Perfect Life.'
Just as Han Fei was thinking about this, he received the last notification from the system.
"Notification for Player 0000! Your career history has been updated — Entered the security company to seek employment. That night, you murdered the security company's boss and barged into the company's restricted area. Of the 171 employees, only one survived!
"Notification for Player 0000! Your title of Career Killer is about to be upgraded! "
The voice in his mind caused Han Fei to break out in cold sweat. What did it mean by 'only one survived'? Did it make it sound like he was the one who killed the whole company?
Han Fei turned back to look at the pit of bodies and then at his hand that was holding the Blade of the Past. His eyelids twitched.
The system was telling the truth, it was hard to argue with that.
Opening the attribute panel, Han Fei looked at his already extravagant resume and felt that it was ridiculous.
With this kind of resume, he could say goodbye to the normal job search.
Actually, it was fine in the cryptic world but if one day he returned to the surface world, this resume would probably scare the AI NPCs to death.
After reaching level 12, Han Fei added the attribute points to stamina. His stamina was now at 17. Every 10 points was a new threshold. Han Fei believed it would not be long before he could realize his old dream — to run faster than a ghost.
'This hidden profession, Midnight Butcher, is quite scary. My stamina is doubled, no other player of the same level should be my match.'
Currently, Han Fei appeared to be the only player in the cryptic world but after the OB, there might be other players who would enter the cryptic world, just like that crazy game tester.
No one could predict the future and Han Fei was too lazy to think about it. He would be satisfied if he could live to see the sun rise the next day.
After cleaning up the security company, Han Fei's original plan was to continue exploring the Ziggurat but due to the Guardian title, he changed his mind.
Han Fei had always been interested in the altar at the entrance of Happiness Neighbourhood. He was curious about the thing inside the altar but he never had the chance to open it.
After obtaining the title of Protector, the system notified him that he was qualified to open the altar, so he wanted to go back and take a look.
After summoning all the neighbors back into the urn, Han Fei left the security company.
Perhaps it was the effect of the Guardian title, Han Fei did not feel the eeriness around him when he walked down the street. Instead, he felt like he had grown up here. It was as if Han Fei had grown up here.
Half an hour later, Han Fei slipped out from the shadows. He returned to the entrance of Happiness Neighbourhood.
"When I first left the Happiness Neighbourhood, I picked up the broken bowl before the altar. Thanks to the protection of the altar's power, I was not killed by the ghosts. Even though I have not seen the thing inside the altar, it appears to have been watching me."
The small shrine was at the corner of the entrance of the neighborhood. It was very inconspicuous.
After Han Fei prepared himself, he reached out to grab the black cloth that covered the altar.
"When I was young, the adults at the orphanage warned me not to lift the black cloth on the altar to avoid disturbing the God. They also said that anything can be worshiped at the altar but it doesn't necessarily mean the God that resides inside the altar is the God. "
Lifting the black cloth, Han Fei looked into the altar.
The inner wall was covered in blood stains but other than that, there was nothing else.
"Empty? Just an empty shell? "
Just as Han Fei was about to remove the black cloth, the altar suddenly changed. It seemed to have a consciousness of its own. A pair of eyes opened amidst the blood stains.
The landlord's ring jingled. When Han Fei met the pair of eyes, his Life Points, Stamina and consciousness drained rapidly until he lost the energy to lift the black cloth.
Han Fei slumped to the ground and his body went limp. He stared at the altar in shock. Before he could react, the black cloth was covered again.
"Eyes, a pair of eyes has opened inside the altar? It's absorbing my life force and soul! "
Crawling backward, Han Fei looked at the altar with fear. He almost died at his own doorstep.
Compared to before, the old altar appeared to have regained some of its color.
"Notification for Player 0000! You have failed to light up the altar!
"Every altar hides a different 'God'. Some altars will reward you handsomely after you open them but others will claim your life.
"The level requirement to light up an altar is level 30! Since the player has completed the exploration of Yi Min Street and obtained the title of Guardian, you have the right to light up the altar!
"Light up the altar: After successfully lighting up the altar, your name will be remembered by the unspeakable presence. You will receive their curse or blessing.
"Warning! Every shrine hides an unspeakable past. Remember, don't pry into their secrets before you have enough confidence to protect yourself. "
Listening to the notification, Han Fei touched the landlord's ring dumbly. There were already 2 cracks on it.
'Normally, I need to be level 30 to light up an altar, no wonder I was almost killed by it.' Han Fei was only level 12. If not for his stamina, he would have been dead by now.
'Midnight Butcher grants me double stamina. Combined with the other attributes, I should be able to light up the altar before level 20. Unfortunately, the butterfly won't give me that chance.'
Han Fei crawled up from the ground. His head was spinning. He was about to put the landlord's ring away when something worse happened.
Suddenly, a singing voice came from the street. It sounded like the wailing of a funeral was closing in. The person's destination was clear, he was heading straight for the Happiness Neighbourhood.
'It's attracted by the altar?' Without hesitation, Han Fei grabbed the urn and ran.
The song that usually circled around the Happiness Neighbourhood changed its target this time. The song entered Han Fei's ears. It pierced through his mind and consciousness like tiny chains, slowly connecting his memories.
'Why is it targeting me?'
The broken urn cracked open. Drake crawled out from the urn. It carried the weakened Han Fei on its back and started to run.
