I have a set of monster experience cards

Chapter 407 Dreaming at Jinhu Theater (This chapter contains spoilers for the movie "The Mist")

In fact, when the military convoy passed through unusually clean neighborhoods in confusion and fear.

You Huan was at the front of the convoy's route, hunting any monsters he encountered along the way.

After most of the day, a total of 72 advanced evolution points were obtained.

The level has reached [Lv.16 (22/128)], crossing one level again.

Possibly due to the huge growth of King Cobra during this period, the targeted enhancement obtained through this upgrade is also in terms of growth.

The energy utilization efficiency is further improved.

The last upgrade increased the hardness of the snake scales.

He found that targeted enhancements using advanced evolution points to upgrade were often related to the situation at the time.

This is not a targeted evolution for the environment.

All the strengthening points obtained from Carmody were invested in [Infinite Growth]:

【[无限生长]（+10）+9效果：生长速度提高40％。+10效果：生长速度提高50％。】

In addition, there was seemingly endless fog on both sides of him, similar to the situation in the small town, but more dense.

The military convoy following him stopped to rest, and the King Cobra also found a place to sit down and rest.

"Wow—"

Behind him, the strange forest, whose posture and shape kept changing every moment, spread into the distance.

The next moment, the main body and the King Cobra fell into a dream simultaneously, falling towards the gap between reality and illusion.

He was facing a large lake with no end in sight. Thick white mist drifted on the lake, so that he could only vaguely see the dark shadows of waterbirds swimming happily on the lake.

He wants to use the world's rich biological resources as much as possible to reduce the size of the King Cobra to an astonishing level!

Suddenly, his spiritual power seemed to be touched by something invisible.

After looking at "himself" on his shoulder, he looked around.

The sound of the lake water being stirred up by flying birds could be heard in my ears.

Under the influence of multiple measures, when night fell, his size had steadily passed the three hundred meter mark and reached about three hundred and thirty meters.

He and the main body on the military truck simultaneously took out the sculpture of the Palm City God Toad and played with it with their tails or hands.

Under the cover of night, Bridgerton in the fog becomes darker and deeper.

It is considered an entity at this time and can effectively interact with the outside world, but its weight is only that of a one-meter-long snake.

When he opened his eyes again, he appeared in a standing posture by a lake shrouded in fog.

It's like really shrinking.

He had seen that city before, it was Meng Chan's royal city.

In the far distance he could see the spiers of a majestic and glorious city.

The king cobra landed on his shoulder in a one-meter-long miniature form.

And when night fell, he discovered that the huge improvement in size and level in a short period of time seemed to bring some additional effects——

Vaguely, he seemed to touch a layer of film, and seemed to hear a call.

The King Cobra spit out snake messages, and he could sense that the fog contained a purer and richer power than the fog in the small town.

If the real King Cobra arrives here, it may be able to grow even more just by absorbing the mist.

But unfortunately, with the current form of a mini snake, he could not feel the growth in size at all.

He was dreaming at the moment, but at the same time it wasn't quite a dream.

Similar to the last time I dreamed of entering the royal city, this is a world of dreams, which is both real and illusory.

He turned his attention again to the large lake directly ahead.

The feeling he had when he fell into a dream this time... was that three elements were put together.

These three elements are: fog, Dream Toad King City, and lake.

The first two are easy to explain. The mist corresponds to the world he lives in, and the dream toad corresponds to his dreaming with the help of sculptures.

So the last element…

Could it be related to the "story" currently unfolding in Bridgerton?

"Ah~~" As soon as he had this thought, a melodious female voice floated faintly on the lake in front of him.

Then, as if the clouds parted and the moon appeared in an instant, the sounds of countless high-pitched, low-pitched, lively, or melancholic musical instruments came from all directions on the lake.

The fog shrouding the lake slowly opened to both sides like white gauze at this time.

"Wow--"

The waterbirds on the lake flapped their wings, lined up in neat rows, and passed by with their elegant necks held high.

In a grand and solemn symphony, he heard a woman's singing faintly coming from the depths of the lake.

The song tells the story of a man who originally had a happy family, but because of a sudden huge disaster in the town, he had to desperately try to save his companions and find a way out.

At the last moment, because he witnessed a scene that made him desperate, he chose to shoot and kill all his companions to prevent them from suffering more pain.

When he was about to commit suicide, he found that the disaster had dissipated and rescue arrived.

As long as they don't despair so early, even if they only spend a few seconds longer discussing who is responsible for sending everyone else to their deaths.

They might all be redeemed.

There is a hint of joy in the despair, and the story ends abruptly when the man kneels down in despair.

At this time, all the fog on the lake had dispersed, revealing the shadowy figures in the distance.

The golden light on the lake shines brightly, making the lake look like a splendid opera stage.

On both sides of the lake, you can vaguely see the dense figures reflected on the lake, which seem to be the audience of this opera.

However, when You Huan looked up at the lake, he could not find the real bodies of these spectators. It seemed that they were just phantoms in the water.

The opera on the golden lake had ended, and he saw a graceful figure taking a step toward him and extending his right hand.

It seemed to be inviting him into the theater.

He had long recognized that what he had just sung was the original plot of the movie "The Mist"——

David and others killed Ms. Carmody, broke away from the obstruction of the religious organization, and finally escaped outside the supermarket.

He and his companions got into the car and drove all the way out of the town.

They drove far and wide, until the car ran out of gas, and still could not leave the foggy area.

At this time, they saw an unparalleled behemoth coming out of the mist - Behemoth.

It was so huge that it even ignored the gestures of everyone on the ground, and finally broke down everyone's psychological defenses.

In desperation, everyone agreed to let David shoot and kill the others one by one.

Finally, because he ran out of bullets, David needed to get out of the car and end his life by letting the monster eat him. .

It is more honorable for companions to die in this simple way than the painful way of being eaten by monsters.

However, after David decided to kill all his companions, including his son, he stepped out of the car and found that the fog began to lift.

A rescue vehicle from the military came from behind, and it even carried the mother who rushed into the fog alone at the beginning of the story to take care of her child at home.

The ending was like a mockery of fate.

In the world of the heavens, this "destiny" obviously comes from the power corresponding to this force in the lake.

His arrival caused destiny to completely deviate from its original track.

Facing the invitation from the woman on the lake, he didn't care whether he would be settled for changing "their" drama.

I happily stepped onto the lake.

After walking about twenty meters, my eyes suddenly opened up, and all the previously blurry scenery became clear.

The graceful figure who invited him to come forward was finally clearly revealed.

The multi-layered fat pink belly, webbed palms, and head bubbles were forcibly restrained into a head-like shape.

This is a big dream toad that doesn't have the graceful figure of a woman at all.

"...?"
