Forbidden Nightmare

Chapter 47 What's New
When Li Nanke opened his eyes again, the sky was clear and the clouds were like soft silk. The shallow lake under his feet was crystal clear and the water surface lightly brushed over his ankles, extending to the end of his sight, vast and boundless.

The reflections of the sky and clouds in the lake are clearly discernible, like a flat mirror, blurring the boundary between heaven and earth. Every breeze and every drop of lake water whispers that this is where the dream begins.

In the dream, he finally prevented the giant mutant 'Death Omen' from forming, but Death Omen, a collective consciousness creature, could contact other planetary-level deformed monsters even if it had not yet aggregated into a complete form... The plan of the Human Union was a complete joke in the eyes of the terrifying advanced civilization.

This also meant that even though he and Alba, who were far away in Gliese 798c, tried their best to prevent the formation of the "Death Sign", the final outcome they faced was despair of facing many planetary aberrations... and the destruction of the human mother planet.

A synchronous prompt sounded, and azure text appeared in the field of vision.

[Nightmare, you have completed the forbidden dream - 'Flare Project'! ]

[Dream is being resolved...]

[Your settlement score in this dream is: Grade A]

[Since you have completed the hidden node: learned the key experimental log in the biological laboratory and touched the 'first generation structure'. ]

[Your dream score rises to: A+]

[Since you have completed the hidden node: Preventing the formation of the planetary aberration of Gliese 798c - 'Death Sign'. ]

[Your dream settlement score rises to: S+ level]

[Based on this score, your current normal exchange fee is 300 points, and you can exchange for two items in the special list. ]

Li Nanke frowned. The initial score of the last guided dream was S-level, but now the initial settlement score of the dream was only A-level.

Moreover, he completed two hidden nodes and finally killed the "Death Omen", and the overall score reached S+ level.

What are the conditions for SSS, to complete other untriggered hidden nodes?

For example, saving the space station personnel, destroying the first generation of constructs, saving the Human Union government, and eliminating those planetary aberrations...

He shook his head. This was only the second time he experienced the forbidden dream, and there were many things he simply couldn't do.

Although the final score of this dream is the same as the guided dream, the cost of the reward has increased, and there is one more option for special redemption items.

Before the list of options popped up, the synchronization prompt sounded again.

[Nightmare, you have unlocked new permissions for the Great Other Shore, the 'Repair' and 'Strengthen' functions! ]

[You can spend a certain amount of money to repair and strengthen your existing equipment. ]

[Repair: Damaged equipment can be repaired.]

[Enhancement: You can improve the equipment to a certain extent to increase the equipment score, and some equipment can even be upgraded in quality. ]

Li Nanke's mind moved, and he took out the damaged and scrapped 'Linear Laser Cannon'.

The Great Beyond shows that it costs 80 points to repair the weapon, while it costs 100 points to strengthen it.

The repair costs and enhancement costs of different equipment are inconsistent. For example, the apprentice uniform set that has become tattered due to battle has a repair cost of 2 points, but the enhancement cost is only 3 points.

The upper limit of the number of times different equipment can be enhanced is not the same, and the enhancements are also different. For example, the cannon enhancement shortens the cooling time, while the chainsword increases the sharpness and lethality of the teeth.

He raised his brows and took out the reward for the final node.

【Nanobot Repair Kit】

【Type: Props/Tools】

【Quality: Excellent+】

[Rating: 69/100]

[Details: This is an advanced repair tool that contains nanorobots that can self-organize and program. These micro-machines can recognize and adapt to the repair needs of various equipment, from precision electronic equipment to large firearms. They can automatically scan damaged parts, assess the extent of damage, and use the nanorobots themselves to repair or replace damaged parts. (Nanorobots cannot repair equipment that is higher than the quality of the item itself) Number of remaining nanorobots: 100%]

[Note: Nanomachines, boy!]

The nanorobot repair kit is obviously used for emergency repairs. It can quickly repair damaged equipment in any situation, but it has restrictions on the type and quality of equipment. Repairing the cannon will consume 28% of the robot's own reserves.

The maintenance function of the Great Other Shore is extremely powerful, with no restrictions on quality or equipment, but you can only pay for maintenance after the dream ends.

Li Nanke did not repair the 'Linear Laser Cannon' immediately, but instead called up the dream redemption list.

"What kind of rotten fish and shrimp are these..."

I don’t know if it’s because Li Nanke didn’t explore the space station enough, but most of the things that appear in the ordinary list are of little value.

The only things he's interested in are functional equipment and props like 'operational space suits', 'oxygen masks', and 'death row restraints'.

He decisively spent 80 points to repair the linear laser cannon.
