Hell's Handbook

Chapter 338

Exhaustion overcSu Jin like a flood. He knew he must not hesitate, so he immediately hit himself with the nail-ridden stool leg. The nails stabbing into his skin helped him to wake up a little, but it wasnt enough. The exhaustion that cwith the first dream was even stronger than the previous ones!

Su Jin leaned against a wall as he sat down and panted heavily before punching himself in the calf, which broke his bone.

AHH! Su Jin clutched his calf as he shouted in pain. He pulled at his fracture, creating a wound. His eyes were red as he stabbed the stool leg hard into his own wound.

AHHHHHH! he screamed. Humans had an upper limit to how much pain they could take, so they would faint once they hit their limit. It was a safety mechanism of sorts, like the circuit breaker of an electrical box.

Su Jin was definitely one of the most powerful electrical boxes in the world. The pain limits of ordinary humans were meaningless to him, but that was a good thing to him. The fact that his pain limit was way above ordinary humans meant that he could use extrpain to keep him from falling deeper into his dreams, and this was the only place where he could feel such pain.

Wake UP!!! Su Jin roared. The pain made his pupils dilate continuously, and when the pain had reached an almost unbelievable level, his entire world suddenly shook.

The pain disappeared completely, and Su Jins face was covered in sweat. He was panting heavily, but there was a smile on his face. He had returned to reality.

He was still in a bedroom, but he was no longer alone. Ning Ran and the rest were lying randomly in the room, but they clearly werent doing very well. Just like him, they were all trapped in their dreams.

Su Jin furrowed his brows. Among the other five, Yu Wenkuo was still in a daze, while the other four were struggling. Their expressions kept changing, and it was obvious that they werent having pleasant dreams.

He went to sit next to Ning Ran and took hold of her hand. A silver glint flickered in his eyes. He wanted to enter her dreams and lead her out. If he didnt do that, she might die.

His psychokinesis quickly entered her consciousness and opened a path into her dreams. It didnt take long for him to find himself in Ning Rans dream. She was standing face to face with another woman.

Sis why why are you fighting back? Why wont you cwith me? The other woman was familiar to Su Jin as well, because it was Ning Rans younger sister, a former member of Team Boning Knife Ning Meng!

Ning Mengs hair was a mess, and she was crying tears of blood. Her body had started to rot, and maggots were wriggling and crawling around the rotten parts of her face.ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by novelenglishFirᴇ(.)nᴇt

Ning Ran looked terrified, but she also looked grieved. She kept shaking her head as she said, No, my younger sister isnt dead! Shes shes still alive! Shes still alive!

Still alive? Are you trying to foolor fool yourself? Sis, Im already dead. How else would you have gotten Hells Handbook? That that was mine! Ning Ran broke into a creepy smile as she stretched a rotting arm crawling with maggots toward Ning Rans face.

Ning Ran shuddered and wanted to dodge, but she felt bad trying to dodge her own sisters arm. She burst into tears and said, No, no! Ning Meng, Ill find you someday! Ill definitely find you!

You dont have to search for me. Im right here, Sis. Youve already found me. Besides, well always be together from now onward! Ning Mengs hand was almost within reach of Ning Rans face.

Enough! Even if youre really dead, Ning Meng would never treat her older sister like this! said Su Jin frostily as he marched over and grabbed hold of Ning Mengs arm.

Ning Meng looked up at him and smiled. My team leader! I didnt expect to see you in such a place. Its been a long tsince we last met. Wheres everybody else? Hows Sister Mai and the rest?

Su Jin got a shock and could hardly believe his ears. How how did this evil spirit know about Kano Mai? They were in Ning Rans dream, so it ought to contain only things that Ning Ran knew about.

Ning Meng smiled at Su Jin and said, Are you very puzzled? Theres no need to be. I know all this because Im Ning Meng herself!

No, no, you arent! Su Jin shook his head. He said in a grave voice, Ning Meng was a lovely girl, so even if she died, she would never try to haunt anyone like this. She knows she knows I tried my best. Shes a very kind person! You youre nothing! roared Su Jin. The silver glint around him flashed brightly, causing Ning Meng to explode.

No! Ning Ran screamed as her world shook a few times. The pieces of Ning Mengs body had disappeared.

Weve gone one dream closer to reality! Su Jin was stunned for a moment. Watching him kill Ning Meng had been too shocking for Ning Ran, so she woke up from that dream, but it only helped her to enter her previous dream, and she did not reach reality yet.

No, no! Ning Meng! Ning Ran fell to her knees and started crying uncontrollably.

But her reaction gave Su Jin an idea. Most people would wake up when something terrible happened in their dream, but that didnt work on him because he had gone through too many terrifying situations. However, Ning Ran was still considered a newbie to the Handbook world, so she wasnt much better off than an ordinary human. Traumatizing her at this level still worked on her.

With that in mind, he walked over to where she was. She sensed him approaching her, so she looked up at him. But he gave her a smile and asked, Miss Ning, have you ever felt despair?

While she stared at him in confusion, he reached out and broke her arm. To him, her arm was no harder than a piece of chalk, so he broke it really easily.

AH! she screamed in pain. She had a terrified look in her eyes as she stared at Su Jin. She couldnt understand why the person who promised to protect her would turn into a demon all of a sudden. She clearly had not realized she was dreaming.

He continued torturing her in this manner, and the pain drove her from one dream to another, pushing her closer and closer to reality. But doing this also made her so terrified of him, she didnt know how to hide from him.

Im really sorry! Su Jin squatted down in front of Ning Ran, who was trembling violently in a corner of the room. He shook his head and said, I think were almost there. Im doing this for your own good, I promise!

No, no! Please stop! Please stop! Ning Ran wailed miserably as she pleaded with Su Jin. He had tortured her again and again, and each tshe was about to die, everything would revert to normal. The only thing that didnt change was how Su Jin would appear in front of her and abuse her again.

He ignored her pleas and dug one of her eyeballs out of its socket, then squeezed it so hard that it burst.

Ning Ran leaped up in shock inside the bedroom of the real world, her eyes widened in horror. In her dreams, she had been torn slowly from limb to limb. Su Jin had even torn her skin off, and watching her internal organs jiggle beneath her rib cage had been too much for her. That was how she got out of her dreamworld and returned to the real world.

Alright, alright, its over, its over, Su Jin quickly tried to comfort her.

But Ning Ran stared at Su Jin like he was a monster. She moved away from him as quickly as possible, trembling as she tried to keep her distance. She was probably more afraid of Su Jin than the spirits of this Challenge by now.

Su Jin knew why she was behaving like this, so he sighed and explained, Dont worry, I wont do anything to you. Were back in the real world, so were back to reality.

Reality? Ning Ran was confused.

He sighed again. To be honest, he felt that rescuing Ning Ran was not the most meaningful thing to do. If it were Ning Meng, she would have eventually realized that she was trapped in her own dreams. But not Ning Ran. Ning Rans sense of danger and observation skills were way too poor compared to her sister. Such an owner would not last long in Challenges.

Calm down and think. What happened just now? Did any of it make sense? How could you possibly remain unhurt after I tried to kill you so many times? Su Jin dropped her a few hints. Thankfully, she managed to figure it out. She wasnt that hopeless after all.

All that was the work of the evil spirits here? asked Ning Ran.

He nodded and said, The spirits dragged us into dreamworlds. If one did not realize it and kept falling deeper into these worlds, you might not wake up again. I forced my way into your dreams, but the only way to get you back to reality was by causing you great pain, which was why

Thank you, Ning Ran thanked him in a gentle voice. She knew that Su Jin must have taken a great risk to enter her dreams and save her. If not for Ning Meng, there was no way Su Jin would have taken this risk.

Su Jin smiled. Just like what she suspected, he wouldnt have done such a thing if not for Ning Meng. He had managed to wake up from his dreams by inflicting pain on his body. But he wasnt sure if that would work on another persons dreams.

What about them? asked Ning Ran worriedly as she looked at the rest in the room.

Su Jin shook his head and said, Theyll have to deal with it themselves. Its already hard enough to keep yourself alive in a Challenge, after all. Since youre Ning Mengs sister, letleave you with a piece of advice In the real world outside of this Handbook, you can go ahead and be a nice person all you want. But when youre in a Challenge mind your own business.

The change in Su Jins mentality was great. In the past, he might have tried to save Zhang Yang and the rest. But things were different now. He had a higher goal, and he would not allow himself to die in a Challenge. Ning Ran nodded with a slightly confused look on her face.
