Heavenly Official Sends Evil

Chapter 817 Deep Space
The first half of the diary entries still depict a peaceful and serene life.

But the tone changed drastically after that line, "I want to kill someone."

The girl's writing was no longer innocent and cute; it began to have a touch of madness.

'I'm sorry, sister, I lied to you before.'

"I live here all alone, and it's so lonely. Only my uncle, who occasionally appears outside my window, is willing to chat with me."

"But my uncle is very busy and can't always be with me, so he gave me an idea."

"Your task for me is to protect the good people in the Mystery Building. So, all I have to do is pick out the good people and bring them here to live with me, right? That way I can complete my task and have someone to keep me company."

'Although I don't know what kind of person is a good person, thankfully my uncle does. With his help, this place has become lively. I provide them with plenty of food, cigarettes, alcohol, and everything they want.'

As for those people outside, they're none of our business anyway!

'We drank and made merry all day long, having a wonderful time, but strangely, I always woke up with injuries all over my body.'

'This must be because I drank too much and hurt myself. Good people wouldn't hurt me.'

"Until one day, I woke up to find my head being held in an older man's arms, and my limbs and internal organs scattered on the ground!"

'I...want to kill someone!'

Du E shook her head.

What a typical story of a sheltered girl being deceived by bad people outside.

The uncle outside the window in the story looks like an evil spirit, and the person chosen by the evil spirit must even have unknown hidden dangers.

She continued looking down.

'It feels so good to kill someone!'

No wonder "good people" always want to kill me.

'I've found a way to stop being lonely. The supplies in the Mystery Tower have been almost completely depleted by our previous period of feasting and drinking. Let the people in the Mystery Tower only be able to obtain supplies by killing each other!'

'That way, I'll have a constant stream of entertainment.'

'But my sister's mission also needs to be completed. How can I protect people?'

'Yes! '

'I'm going to build a cabinet and stuff them all in!'

The information in the diary shows that the Sleeping Woman created this mystery building and left the twin-tailed girl to act as its caretaker. However, the caretaker was bewitched by something outside, which made the situation of the mystery building worse and worse.

Click, click, click.

Just then, a strange sound came from behind.

Du E turned around and looked at the other side of the room: "There is a passage in the diary that says you were dismembered by the people here, but later you killed everyone here."

"So you must be the type who can get back up no matter how badly you're injured."

The blood-red wooden stakes remained embedded in the wall, but the people on them had already climbed down.

The girl in the red and white dress lay face down on the ground with her limbs twisted, blood still dripping from the wound on her chest. She gave Du E a strange smile, then pounced on her like a spider!

Du E prepared for battle.

"Fortunately, I'm quite good at dealing with guys like you."

...Wu Xian, who had transformed into a vengeful ghost, was the first to awaken.

He opened his eyes, and the first thing he saw was a corridor he would never forget in his life.

Wu Xian frowned and drifted deeper into the corridor.

Han Shuihe, Ling Ji, Wan Jue, and Hawke also woke up one after another, and their expressions were all surprised when they opened their eyes.

Ling Ji frowned and said, "What's going on? Shouldn't we appear directly next to the Sleeping Maiden in the Deepest Dream? Could it be that the Deepest Dream's blessing has failed?"

The corridor in front of me is exactly the same as the corridor in the Mystery Building, whether it is the height, width, the layout of the doors, windows and lights, or even the smell!
Hawke pointed to the window and shook his head: "Look closely, it's very dark outside, but not the kind of darkness you see at night. It's covered by soil. This place must be underground."

Han Shuihe warily scanned her surroundings: "The Mist Giant has been trying to snatch what the Sleeping Maiden is holding. If we could find the Sleeping Maiden directly with just the Deep Sleep Grace, she would have lost that eye long ago. But this should be the closest place to the Sleeping Maiden that we can reach in the Deep Dream."

"Yes."

Wu Xian, who had already explored the area, floated back and reported his findings to the others:

"There are no elevators in the corridor, only stairs. Also, the first door says Apartment 403, but the second door says Apartment 305."

"The floor and number are both wrong. This may be a puzzle. Only by solving the puzzle can we find the location of the Sleeping Woman."

"and……"

Wu Xian pushed open a door, and a pungent stench wafted out. Through the door, he could see an elderly woman scavenging for recyclables, slowly sorting through the trash.

Wan Jue's expression changed drastically: "This is..."

Wu Xian nodded: "I just took a quick look, and at least half of the eight apartments on this floor are hiding evil spirits."

This caused everyone's expression to change slightly. The evil spirits in the room all had some kind of rule-based ability. Did they have to fight the evil spirits they had fought before again?
With the current situation unclear, the group refrained from making any rash moves and instead explored all the possible destinations along the stairs.

The area they could reach had four floors, and the room numbers on each floor were randomized.

Furthermore, the lowest floor has eight apartment rooms, but there is no stairwell leading to the next floor; the place that should be a stairwell is just a dark void.

Besides these, there are no other clues.

The group was caught in a predicament.

After finally defeating the mist giant and arriving here, there was no way to go forward.

Clues may be hidden in the apartment rooms, but the apartment is haunted by evil spirits, and with their current abilities, it's not impossible for them to kill all the evil spirits in the rooms.

But this would consume a lot of the worship energy. What if we kill all the evil spirits here and still can't get any information?

The five family members discussed it for a long time, but still couldn't make up their minds.

Wan Jue stomped his foot, deciding to go all out, and shouted at the top of his lungs:

"Sleeping Maiden, Sleeping Maiden, are you there? The Great Emperor Ziwei asked us to bring you a message. He has come to bestow an imperial decree upon you in the dream. Quickly let us in; this will only benefit you!"

Wu Xian and the others couldn't quite keep their composure, but if they could really communicate with the Sleeping Maiden this way, it might save them a lot of trouble.

After the announcement ended, the corridor was quiet for a moment, then suddenly became noisy.

Wan Jue's voice provoked the evil spirits in the room, who began to cause trouble, making everyone tense.

Just when everyone thought the call was completely useless.

Hawke suddenly noticed that strange patterns were starting to appear on the window, which meant that someone wanted to communicate with them through the window!
