The black box was in Han Fei’s brain. He was the key to the tragedy but also the hope. Those who knew the truth might have a different attitude toward Han Fei. Swould do everything to kill him, and others would do the opposite.
Han Fei touched his head. He opened the greed abyss and swallowed the head, the black dream device, and Gao Xing’s soul fragment. Han Fei broke through the limit and becthe only person with nine awakenings in the city. The greed abyss turned into the world of sins. Gao Xing’s endless names entered his brain. They becpart of the greed persona. His mind almost becthe second altar world. This breakthrough was like Pure Hatred becoming Unmentionable.
“No wonder there’s a limit in Gao Xing’s altar world. After the ninth awakening, the human brain would build a new mental world based on his memory, experience, and personality.”
After the tragedy, humanity was not completely helpless. Persona users with eight awakenings could fight Pure Hatreds, and persona users with nine awakenings could touch the Unmentionable’s world. The key point was nine awakenings was still not the upper limit. Han Fei tasted the edge of the greed persona. His world of sins affected the running of the altar world. He could sense all the sins running in the city. “Unfortunately, that only works in the altar world. If only I’m as strong after I leave Gao Xing’s altar.”
Gao Cheng and Gao Xing’s souls disappeared. The altar world had a categorical change. All of Gao Xing’s figurines shattered. Mad Laughter’s figurines becthe city’s only faith. Without Gao Xing in the way, Mad Laughter easily took over Gao Xing’s last altar. The figurine slowly took on Mad Laughter’s resemblance.
“Why hasn’t he awakened yet?” Han Fei and the kids of Class Seven could reach this step mainly because Mad Laughter had sacrificed himself. Now that Gao Xing’s three souls had been vanquished, Mad Laughter should have been reborn.
“There are sthings and people related to Gao Xing still remaining in the altar world. Only after eliminating them that usurpation is fully successful.” No. 2 looked at Han Fei differently. He didn’t think Han Fei could reach this stage, but Han Fei used actions to prove him wrong. He wasn’t worse than No. 0.
Han Fei nodded. The usurpation was 90 percent done.
The fight between Gods was crueler than expected. All the souls on the altar were affected. The kids picked up Mad Laughter’s figurine and entered the corridor. After Gao Xing’s soul died, Immortal Skyscraper changed completely. This was hell on earth. The images reminded Han Fei that he couldn’t allow this to happen in real life. Everything in the building rapidly aged. The investigation members outside the building noticed the anomaly. They looked at the building entrance with high alertness.
No one was able to leave the Taboo Building alive, but that was about to change. The rusted door was pushed open from the inside. Han Fei, Ah Nian, and the kids walked out. They had changed the world and the fate of everyone in the altar world.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“From today onwards, the new era has arrived.” The moment Han Fei exited the building, cheers erupted in Zone A. The humans suppressed by ghosts roared. “God who enslaved the world has been murdered. Our future will be built on his body.” The sun shone, and the clouds covering the city dissipated.
The three survivor bases spread the good news. Han Fei becthe new leader.
“Gao Xing and Gao Cheng’s birthdays are the days after tomorrow. We’ll finish the usurpation ritual before the birthday party.”
Han Fei led the persona users of the three bases and cleansed the city. He didn’t kill all the ghosts. He had his own plan. It would be hard to create a world where humans and ghosts coexisted in real life, so Han Fei wanted to use this altar world as a test drive. “One day, I’ll find the balance between the real world and the cryptic world.” Han Fei had a plan. “Perfect Life is the plan Fu Sheng has written for me. The elder who wanted to destroy the cryptic world probably has considered this option before.”
Han Fei worked together with No. 2 to clean up the rest of Gao Xing’s forces. Mad Laughter changed every moment. Han Fei didn’t relax. He didn’t know how many ghosts he could bring out of the altar. In the end, he decided to feed most of his trapped Pure Hatreds to Wu Chang. The weakest ghost who accompanied Gao Cheng eventually becthe strongest ghost in the city. Everything continued until God’s birthday.
After acquiring many sacrifices, Mad Laughter’s figurine changed on the day Gao Cheng and Gao Xing was born.
The New God walked out of the Old God’s altar. The twisted laughter turned the whole world. Gao Xing’s rules were changed. The bright sun turned red.
The survivors were all stunned. This New God was crazier than the Old God. Han Fei was quite helpless. Mad Laughter tore apart the altar world. His life as Gao Cheng was reaching the end. The edge of the altar world started to crumble, but the people and souls survived. Gao Xing’s planned future was changing based on Han Fei and Mad Laughter’s hope. It returned from despair and moved down another direction.
The city changed. The sky was forever covered by the blood. Humans and ghosts shivered, but this time, they had to face the unknown together. Laughter cfrom the altar and echoed throughout the world. Han Fei’s vision blurred. He could see the kids entering Mad Laughter’s altar. Only No. 2 stood before Mad Laughter and had a serious conversation with him. On God’s birthday, Gao Xing didn’t appear. Mad Laughter completed the usurpation and becthe new owner.
The system rang incessantly. This was Han Fei’s first tescaping from an Unmentionable’s altar.
“Notification for Player 0000! You’ve completed Grade C Mission—Usurpation!
“Usurpation: Kill Gao Xing to becthe New God!
“Gao Xing’s consciousness in the altar world has been demolished. You will becthe new owner of the altar and mobilize the Unmentionable’s power inside the altar!

“Executioner of Unmentionables: Judgement and execution. All the tragedies and sins are your targets. Your ncannot be mentioned in the dark.
“Warning! The requirements to fit this profession are very difficult. You need to actively take down the souls of Unmentionables before level 50 to complete the profession upgrade!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHan Fei was shocked. “Attack Unmentionables before level 50? But this profession looks like it can damage Unmentionable. I should consider it.” Han Fei picked Executioner as his third profession and saw the detailed introduction for it.
“Profession Speciality 1: Everyone who has a guilty conscience will be afraid around you. Your weapon will sharpen during execution!
“Profession Speciality 2: You have eyes that can see through all the sins. You have a strong body to face all kinds of danger. Stamina + 5!

“Profession Speciality 5 (Execution): Execute your target by exploding the power of all the sins. This effect is effective on all ghosts except Unmentionables!”
Han Fei already had Rest in Peace. With the power from Executioner, he finally had the courage to slash Unmentionables.
After being in the cryptic world for so long, Han Fei knew that most abilities wouldn’t work on Unmentionables, so he was very satisfied with this new power.
Han Fei still had one last thing to do before he left the altar world. He decided to use the reward from his main altar mission, where he could take one ghost out with him.
He had many choices, like Ah Nian, Yan Lan, and the other Pure Hatreds, but in the end, Han Fei chose Gao Xing’s mother.
He could bring out three trapped ghosts with him, but Gao Xing’s mother was not trapped in the abyss. Other than that, Han Fei also promised Gao Cheng that he’d look after his mother.
Ghost Mother once helped Gao Cheng see the colorful world. This time, Han Fei believed it was right to bring Ghost Mother back to the normal world. After all, the real Gao Xing was still alive.
