Chapter 75
Words:1901Update:22/06/27 07:04:49
Looking at the notification on the mission interface, Han Fei was confused. He was just having a good chat with his roommates at the haunted house when the system suddenly notified him that he had triggered a Grade F Mission.
Triggering a mission was a good thing but the problem was the higher the mission level, the harder it was. One mistake and he might lose his life.
'There are 7 human body jigsaw pieces hidden inside this building, this number matches the number of bodies in Happiness Neighbourhood Block 1 in real life.
'There is a special connection between the cryptic world and the real world. The human body jigsaw pieces that I need to find probably correspond to the undiscovered body parts in real life.
"My roommates' bodies are all incomplete. If I can find the parts that are buried, perhaps I can piece them back together. This is probably another explanation for the human jigsaw puzzle."
'The hardest part of this Grade F Mission should be to find the 7 human body jigsaw pieces. If I don't know the location of the jigsaw pieces beforehand, I'll have to search blindly in this apartment filled with ghosts and death traps. I'll have to personally explore room after room.
'Now that I know all the body jigsaw pieces, it saves me a lot of time. Therefore, it's not impossible for me to complete the mission in 3 days.'
Han Fei could remember all the room numbers clearly. Probably due to his frequent memorization training, his memory was better than a normal person's.
Han Fei looked closer. Other than the Grade F Mission, there was also a Grade G Mission — Explore the 6th Floor.
'Exploring the whole apartment building should be the main quest for the new player. One of the 4 rooms on the 6th floor is already empty. As long as Xu Qin is willing to help me, I should be able to clear out the other 3 rooms. What I need to watch out for now is the bouncing footsteps in the corridor.'
Han Fei sat on the living room sofa and planned to stay there for 3 hours before leaving.
He did not waste this time. He went over the knowledge he learned during the day and practiced the most basic fighting skills.
'Even though this hellish game is strange, I can't deny that as long as I'm here, I'll be able to focus my attention. After I connect to the real world, perhaps I can start a training class here to train the students' concentration. '
At 3 am, Han Fei picked up the cleaver from the kitchen and exited Room 1044.
The corridor was still as quiet as before, as if there was no life in the building.
Holding the kitchen knife, Han Fei didn't close the door but carefully walked to the fifth floor.
When he turned the corner between the 4th and 5th floor, he realized all the doors on the 5th floor were closed. 'Strange, why is the door to Room 1051 closed today? Is Xu Qin not at home? "
Han Fei knew Xu Qin would occasionally go out to 'buy vegetables'. To prevent Xu Qin from harvesting the 'vegetables' inside the building, the manager purposely gave Xu Qin the spare key to the stairwell.
"If this big sister isn't here, it's too risky for me to go to the sixth floor alone." Han Fei thought about it calmly. 'I'll go knock on the door first. If she's really not there, I'll go talk to Weep and then return to the haunted house to wait for her.'
He had come up with the plan but before he could execute it, he heard hurried footsteps coming from downstairs.
When he turned back to look, the door to Room 1044 was already slammed shut by an arm covered in scars.
"Not good!"
Standing in front of Room 1044 were 2 madmen with severe burns. They were naked and their bodies were covered in scars. They held sharp knives in their hands.
'These two are after me! I don't usually offend people and most of them have been destroyed. Other than the few non-locals hiding in their rooms on the 6th floor. ' Han Fei's brain worked very fast. "They must've set up an ambush on the third floor, waiting for me to get out of here. Since they dared to make their move on this day, it means that Xu Qin is probably not at home. '
'If Xu Qin is not at home, going upstairs is suicide. Then the best solution is to go downstairs and find Weep.'
Han Fei made his decision instantly. However, the 2 non-locals were not dumb. One of them guarded the space between the 3rd and 4th floor to prevent Han Fei from jumping over the railing while the other stabbed at Han Fei's chest with a knife.
After so many rounds of basic combat training, Han Fei did not plan to run anymore. He raised the cleaver and faced the enemy head-on.
"Bang!"
When the cleaver and the sharp knife collided, Han Fei staggered two steps back from the impact but the scarred man was unscathed.
'This is bad, the difference in strength is too big!'
The non-local's face was filled with murderous intent. Every scar on his body was like a cracked mouth, snickering silently.
The man's knife was merciless. If Han Fei's reflexes were any slower, his body would've been pierced through.
Once he was injured, his movement would slow down and it would be even harder to escape!
'Even though the 3 hours are up, I still haven't completed the mission. If I'm captured by these murderers now, the consequences will be unimaginable!'
Adrenaline surged. Han Fei would rather die at the hands of a ghost than be captured and tortured to death by these murderers.
'Run! Run up the stairs! At most, we'll die together! '
Gritting his teeth, Han Fei rushed to the 5th floor and knocked madly on Xu Qin's door.
'Create a commotion! Only by stirring up the water will I have a chance! '
Han Fei wanted to lure the ghost out of the building. The two non-locals understood Han Fei's plan. They had been planning this for a long time and they chased after him.
The sharp knife was right behind him. It brushed past his body several times. Han Fei did not dare to stop for even a second. He ran like his life depended on it.
When he reached the middle of the 5th floor and the 6th floor, the scene before him made him despair. There was another non-local standing at the door to Room 1062 on the 6th floor.
The person had a feminine face and Han Fei could not tell his gender. He held a long syringe in his hand.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, you won't feel the pain soon." His eyes stared at Han Fei like a venomous snake. His voice was laced with resentment.
Han Fei did not listen to what the person was saying. When he saw the man on the 6th floor, instead of slowing down, he suddenly picked up speed.
He rammed into the man like he had lost his mind. The man raised the syringe in his hand when Han Fei charged at him.
The sharp tip of the needle grew larger in Han Fei's eyes. He swung the cleaver at the man's face.
Just as the man evaded instinctively, Han Fei closed the distance and landed a solid punch on the man's jaw!
The man's eyes were about to pop out of their sockets and his skull was deformed. The man's body swayed. Han Fei did not want to waste his time. He found a chance and ran towards the 7th floor.
'These things from Li Xue sure are useful!'
The comedian was forced into such a desperate situation. He ran as fast as he could but due to the obstruction from the feminine man, the two men with scars were already very close to him.
Han Fei raced to the 7th floor. Han Fei could still remember the old lady's words. Compared to the 8th and 9th floor, the 7th floor did not seem to be that dangerous.
Han Fei banged on the door. When his fingers touched Room 1074, he realized the door was not locked. It opened easily.
'I need to go in and hide!'
