Chapter 890: Tragedy
The human ropes swallowed Gao Xing. An innocent child couldn't get adapted to such a suffocating environment. There was no lifeline for him to grab. All the ropes wanted to strangle him to twist him. More ropes tied around his body. The human ropes turned Gao Xing insane. His presence grew. He turned from a living human to a ghost and finally, Pure Hatred. "This is Gao Xing's memory at the aquarium, the beginning of his turn." Han Fei took out Rest in Peace. Normal tools couldn't destroy memory. Gao Xing was still sinking. No one helped him or chose to help him. People called him a demon, but most demons were birth in hell.
People climbed on the ropes until no one could move. Some were pressed on the very bottom. Some moved upwards by stepping on others. This was a very scary nightmare.
"To have Gao Cheng take over God's eyes, first, I need to make him be able to accept corresponding pain." Gao Cheng and Gao Xing mutated in the ropes. However, Gao Xing mutated much faster than Gao Cheng.
After a quick calculation, Han Fei swung the blade. Humanity's goodness cut through the muscle ropes. He risked the possibility of being trapped there and approached Gao Xing.
The blade flashed, and the rope that bound Gao Xing was cut through by Han Fei. Gao Xing's mutation slowed down.
"Did... you save me?" The thin boy was twisted until he was misshapen. The tragic life changed his appearance and turned him into a monster. Han Fei couldn't answer Gao Xing's question. Fate played another trick on Gao Xing. The person he thought was there to save him actually wanted to kill him.
"You want to save me, right? Why aren't you speaking?"
Tragedy and malice were cut through by Han Fei. This time, Gao Cheng mutated faster than Gao Xing!
Gao Cheng gritted his teeth and accepted the pain of losing everything. Once he gave up, then he and Han Fei would be torn apart by Gao Xing's memory. To usurp God, one had to be able to sustain God's past.
"You're here to help me, right? Who are you?"
Gao Xing pressed. His life was dark. No one had offered him a helping hand before. He was the only person to have helped himself. Han Fei fought back the muscle ropes silently. He wanted to kill the Unmentionable, Gao Xing, and not the child, Gao Xing.
With Han Fei's aid, Gao Cheng became a fearful monster before Gao Xing. If the blind parents didn't change the two kids' fates, perhaps this was how Gao Cheng should have ended up. The ropes wanted to strangle Gao Cheng, but in the end, they became part of Gao Cheng. Gao Cheng grabbed the ropes and ate them. Gao Cheng tore apart the web. He ignored law, morality, and boundaries. He expanded. This process was very dangerous.
"That monster looks like me. It's eating my world!" Gao Xing noticed the problem. Han Fei wasn't helping him. He just didn't want Gao Xing to turn into a monster.
"If being human means that I'll continue to be bullied, then... I'd rather be a monster!"
While Han Fei was not paying attention, Gao Xing, behind him, lunged at the muscle ropes like a hungry dog. The still-growing teeth bit on the ropes. It gorged itself on the human faces. Its attitude turned from initial repression to excitement. Gao Xing was transforming before Han Fei. The clashing of fates expedited the transformation of the two monsters. They killed everything around them, but it was to protect the thing they treasured the most. Soon, Gao Xing's memory was shared by two monsters. However, due to Han Fei's interruption, Gao Cheng's mutation was more complete. No one knew how ugly humanity could be.
Han Fei had seen many ugly monsters in the altar world, but they were nothing compared to the two giant monsters before him. Gao Xing's real-life memory also reeked and was wrapped in sin. The negative emotions coalesced into scabs.
The two monsters were fighting in the most native ways. They used everything they could to wound the other. Bloodflowers bloomed. Han Fei witnessed this shocking world. He appeared to be two flowers. Their roots were bound together. Only by killing the other could they bloom.
"Twinflower..."
With Han Fei's help, Gao Cheng changed his fate. He ate Gao Xing's fate and took over his pain. The meat rope eaten by Gao Cheng turned into blood vessels and spread out. When the world was taken over by the vessels, Gao Cheng opened his eyes. Blood crashed like waves. The sky appeared to open a gap. As Gao Cheng roared, the sky opened!
All the illusions disappeared. Han Fei then realized he and Gao Cheng were inside God's eyes. The large blood vessels were the capillaries in the eyes. Under Gao Cheng's influence, Han Fei was sent out of the eyes. He stood at the top of the Fear Demon and looked down at the battlefield. God's left eye was taken over by Gao Cheng. The body that was made of thousands of carcasses was collapsing. The four persona users pulled the chains and tried to keep the monster underwater. The center did everything it could to help Han Fei. They tried their best to weaken the Top Pure Hatred. Technically, God's eyes hadn't even used its full power. It didn't have the chance to use its special power before it was ambushed by Han Fei and Gao Cheng. Even so, God's eyes weren't fully under control. Gao Cheng only managed to take over one left eye.
"Teacher Gao! Try to consume it! We can't hold on much longer!"
"We're at our limits!"
The persona powers complemented each other. If the four persona users were the hammer, then the other members were the cogs of the battle machines. Gao Cheng took too much time to take over Gao Xing's memory.
"If we don't succeed this time, the center won't be able to help me the second time. When God's birthday arrives, everyone will die!" Han Fei knew that time was running out, and this was his only chance!
The black mist came out from behind him. The greed abyss was like an unhealable wound. His ambition and greed burned on the black water. All the mist turned into flames.
"I have no other choice. I have to eat it!"
All the center members saw this horrifying sight. The abyss behind Han Fei yawned. It bit at God's eyes. The eyes sensed the danger and tried to struggle. The four chains rattled. The chains were shattered, but the power of the persona imbued in them was not shaken. The members used their power to bind God's eyes!
No one dared to retreat.
"Eat it! Eat it!"
Han Fei shouted. There was another shadow standing behind Han Fei. Whenever Han Fei lost his mind, a person would stand beside him. The abyss was expanded to its maximum. The eye dominated by Gao Cheng voluntarily entered the abyss. The other eye was forced into the abyss by the center. The black water rose to the sky. The despair underwater floated to the surface. However, Han Fei ate everything. Mental corruption colored his mind. Han Fei's eyes were red. His cornea almost exploded. He triggered both personas. With the power of the two personas, the other eye was dragged into the abyss as well!
The four chains collapsed instantly. The black water of the aquarium surged everywhere. The two giant eyes opened behind Han Fei!
One foundation of the city was taken apart. The deep sea ghost's territory burst like a bubble. All the sin and evil were sucked into the greed abyss. Gao Xing's eyes contained far more despair than Han Fei could contain. Now, he could only place his hope on the healing persona.
Han Fei couldn't digest a Top Pure Hatred. His consciousness flickered. He stayed on due to determination. The battle of attrition between Han Fei and God's eyes was just beginning. Han Fei became an object that radiated mental corruption.
"Captain Zhu, can you get close to him?" The vice-captain of the logistics department was worried about Han Fei, but whenever she got close to him, her persona would be corrupted.
The Taoist elder shook his head. "He has to rely on himself to overcome this ordeal." "Then, how are we supposed to move him back to the center? We can't leave him here, right?" The people from the transportation department came as well. They were used to transporting cursed items, but Han Fei was in a completely different category.
"Pure Hatred has started to move freely. Considering what has happened here, they will move here soon." Fu Lie frowned. "If we don't leave before dark, we'll be surrounded by Pure Hatreds. They have been meaning to take down the center."
As the center members discussed this, a monster that radiated misfortune appeared beside Han Fei. Everyone got ready to fight.
However, something unexpected happened. The monster gently placed itself over Han Fei to protect Han Fei with its body.
