Star Abyss Walker

Chapter 356 Invading the Dream, Judgment Arrives!
No, this is my dream. Do you want to fight me one-on-one?

I almost laughed. In my dream, you actually dared to bully me?!

So, in my dream, I had a thought and immediately entered battle mode. Armor appeared in shape under the stimulation of my elemental power, my cape fluttered behind me, and my power sword shone with a deep red force field.

"Kid, you've got some skills. I'm tempted to just admit defeat."

The chaotic evil spirit chuckled eerily, "But we still have to go through the motions, so be careful not to give anything away, or I'll keep hunting you down!"

With that, he swung his scythe and unleashed a whirlwind slash!
Trivial skills.

I could sense that the opponent's combat strength was weak, so I didn't bother with anything. I activated a set of buffs, jumped and slashed at the opponent's head.

"When~~~"

The chaotic evil spirit raised its arms to block with the long handle of its scythe, and was forced back with a series of thuds as sparks flew.

"You brat, you've got some strength! I'm going to get serious now!"

Are you serious for a second?

I didn't want to waste any more energy, so I instantly unleashed a burst of energy that pierced through his body, and then turned around and struck with my sword!
"Click~~~"

A head rolled off; the killing was swift and clean!

……

"Hehehe...you win..."

The chaotic evil spirit's body transformed into a wisp of black smoke and rose into the air, condensing into a terrifying demonic face, which laughed and said, "But next time might be a different story!"

As the face faded, I fell into a deep sleep once more.

The next day, I woke up to the sound of an alarm clock.

seven thirty.

At home, you should get up immediately to wash up and then accompany Lin Qingying downstairs for breakfast.

Unfortunately, this is a lost land, a deadly place.

The charcoal fire beside it had long since gone out, leaving only ashes.

He got up, took out a jianbing guozi (Chinese crepe) and started eating it. After picking through the options, he finally took out a cup of soy milk.

Jianbing guozi seems to only pair well with soy milk. If you pair it with other things, it might not work. For example, if you pair it with cola, orange juice, or milk tea, it just feels weird and doesn't feel right.

After finishing his meal, he clapped his hands and sent Lin Qingying a message: "Xiaoying, get up, wash up, eat, and go to work!"

"Okay, I'm up!"

She sent a smiley face and then went about her business.

Meanwhile, I pushed open the windbreak wall, and just as the stone fell, I heard the voice from the squad channel.

Ruolin: "Ding Han, get up!"

"You're up. How are things over there?"

"We've just gotten up, let's eat something and get ready to work."

Ruolin asked, "Did you sleep well last night?"

"It's okay."

Faye Chaochen said, "I had a lot of dreams, and I even dreamt that a chaotic creature entered my dream. Holy crap... that was pretty intense. Luckily, my spiritual energy was restored in the dream, otherwise it might have been a real problem."

"what?!"

Everyone was shocked.

Ruolin: "Faye, you also dreamed about that chaotic evil spirit?"

"What, you too?" Hōya Chōchō asked, completely bewildered.

"Holy crap, I dreamt about that too! Was he wearing a black cloak and carrying a red scythe?" Cai Cai asked.

"That's right!"

Aki said, "Damn, I dreamed about this too. It was a three-hundred-round battle with me, and in the end I twisted its head off!"

Kou Mei asked timidly, "Why do we all have the same dream?"

"Ding Han, what about you?" Ruolin asked.

"Same as you."

My expression turned serious, and I frowned as I said, "We had the same dream."

"I rely on..."

Everyone was stunned.

"Go ask on the star map."

As a result, when we opened the star map, all the players near the Lost Land were discussing this dream; everyone had actually dreamed the same dream.

I immediately realized that such a bizarre thing was probably not a good thing.

Just then, the sound of gunfire like dragons came from the team channel in Huaining City.

"I think everyone dreamed about that Chaos Demon, right? We've just confirmed that this might not be a dream, but rather that all of our players have been forcibly invaded by a mysterious force from the warp!"

He said in a deep voice, "I have some terrible news to share..."

"Alliance Leader Long, what terrible news?" Yao Yao asked.

"Last night, almost everyone entered this dream around four o'clock in the morning. Most players easily defeated the Chaos Demon and then woke up, but a small number of players did not defeat the Chaos Demon and did not wake up again."

"What!?"

Everyone was shocked.

"grass!"

Cai Cai said indignantly, "So... this isn't an ordinary dream, but an invasion dream of the subspace into the material world, a harvesting operation?"

"That's pretty much it."

"It seems the news from the GM wasn't unfounded," said Gun Churulong. "After version 4.0, the system launched a trial for low-level players. If your combat power isn't enough, you might die in the dream world."

"Gan!"

Everyone was filled with shock and anger.

I immediately exited the chat and looked at my friend list. Luckily, Milo's avatar was lit up, so I sent him a voice message request.

"Ding Han!"

He answered immediately and asked with a smile, "How have you been lately?"

"Luo'er, did you dream last night that a chaotic demon wielding a scythe came to your door and challenged you to a duel?"

"I'm rough..."

He was shocked: "You...how did you know what I dreamed about? Have you awakened some kind of dream-reading ability?"

"Spy my ass! Every player had this dream: the winner of the duel survived, and the loser perished!"

"what?!"

Milo was utterly shocked. "The warp has invaded the material world, and their greatest enemy is probably us players. So the first thing the evil spirits of the warp did was to target us players, invade the dream world, and directly reap lives."

I frowned and said, "Starting today, you will spend all your spare time leveling up. Have Zuo Shou arrange for someone to help you. You must raise your level and combat ability!"

"Damn it, I've been busy preparing for my concert lately, and now this has happened."

"You want to die?"

"In no mood!"

"Then focus on leveling up!"

"Okay, brother..."

Milo was disgruntled.

After I hung up the call, I went straight to Chen Dongqing.

Among the people around me, only these two are likely to be taken advantage of; the rest of the players are quite diligent and are unlikely to be on the kill list.

"Ding Han..."

Chen Dongqing answered the voice call immediately: "Is it about the subspace invasion of the dream?"

"Hmm, you won the one-on-one fight?"

"Of course, otherwise my profile picture might have already disappeared from your list."

Was it an easy win?

"Not too easy..."

Chen Dongqing felt a chill run down his spine: "Ding Han, do you think the intensity would be even higher if there were a second invasion of the dream?"

"What do you say?"

"Damn it, looks like I really need to focus my main efforts on leveling up..."

"That's right. We must raise our level and combat ability as soon as possible. If you need any help, just let me know."

“Okay, I don’t need your help right now. I have a few player friends in Huaining City. I’ll be taking more time off to level up recently, so I might be a little lax at work. Please put in a good word for me with President Lin.”

"Don't worry, Xiaoying won't blame you."

"Okay, thanks, Ding Han!"

……

I had just finished chatting with Chen Dongqing when Milo's voice message came in.

"Ding Han, I just inquired about it..."

He hesitated for a moment, then said, "Do you remember that guy who ran the Wutong Inn by East Lake?"

"Of course I remember, Xiao Bei and I went there a while ago."

"That guy didn't make it, he passed away."

"died?"

"Ah."

Milo said, "I just called him, and his girlfriend answered. She said she found him lifeless around 7 a.m. and didn't know why he was gone."

"It seems he really did die in the dream trial in the warp."

I frowned: "Enough said, get on with the leveling up."

"Yes, I understand!"

……

A moment later, the phone rang. It was a call from Lin Qingying.

She called me to explain that it was urgent.

"Xiao Ying".

"Ok!"

Her voice trembled slightly: "Ding Han... is what Ruolin said true? Do things like dream invasion and demonic judgment really exist?"

"It really exists."

I frowned: "But don't worry, my combat power is among the top of the players. Unless the subspace can wipe out all the players, they will never be able to judge me. Don't worry, that chaotic demon that appeared in the dream was killed by me in one move. If you're really worried, worry more about Ruolin..."

"Oh!"

"What are you doing now?"

"I picked up breakfast downstairs and am going to eat it in the office."

"Then why aren't you going to the company? Stop worrying about these things!"

"Ok."

She felt relieved and her mood returned to normal: "Then I'll go to work. Be careful out there."

"Ok!"

……

After hanging up the phone, just as I was about to walk out of the cave, my phone rang again.

My business is unusually busy this morning!

The person who called this time was Lu Xiaobei.

Without a doubt, Milo must have said something to her.

"Hey, Xiao Bei!"

"Ding Han, your dreams have also been invaded, haven't they?"

She went straight to the point from the start.

"Yes, my dream was indeed invaded by psionic energy from the warp, but it's not a big problem. I'm in charge of my dream. I shredded the Chaos Demon in one round, so there's nothing to worry about."

"That's good……"

She whispered, "You must be alright."

"You should worry more about Milo. I level up much more diligently than him, and my combat power is also higher, at least three times that of him."

"Different."

Lu Xiaobei said, "If something happens to Milo, I will feel very sad... but if something happens to you, I will fall into despair and lose the will to live. You don't understand this feeling."

I was speechless, so I changed the subject: "Have you eaten?"

"No, I don't want to eat at all!" Her voice sounded slightly dejected.

"Then hurry up and eat! Do you know that if a person doesn't eat breakfast, their intestines will instinctively absorb the remaining nutrients in their feces? What's the difference between that and eating shit? If you don't want to passively eat shit, then hurry up and eat!"

"oops!!"

Lu Xiaobei jumped up and down: "You're disgusting! I'm going to eat right now!"
