Wizard's Journey

Chapter 521 The Lord of Dread (Part 11)

Green has become the eye of the storm in the entire nightmare world.

Although there are six Dreadlords in the Nightmare World, generally speaking, only four Dreadlords—Nightmare Mist, Nightmare Mud, Nightmare Worm, and Withered Corruption—frequently appear and have established their own factions in the Nightmare World, with countless followers.

As for lying to deceive the Fear Lord and spying on the Fear Lord, although the demon world knows that these two Fear Lords exist, they have not shown themselves for far too long.

They are extremely mysterious, all appearing in ancient times. Few nightmare world monsters have ever seen them, and they are only passed down by word of mouth from those extinct fear lords.

With a "thud," another enormous body fell from the sky, leaving two footprints.

"Heh heh heh heh, Dream Peeper, your mission is complete."

Among the many demon king servants who arrived, the first servant of the Nightmare Mud Fear Demon King, the King of Wrath, appeared.

The King of Wrath immediately summoned the third servant of the Nightmare Mud Fear Demon King, the King of Dreams, to his side.

With a towering body over fifty meters tall and a round belly, this demon king's servant, like Grimm, has deviated from the typical image of a demon king's servant and transformed into the image of a gorilla king.

The Dream King, with his three blood-red eyes and a body over thirty meters long, landed silently behind the King of Wrath.

Roar!

With a roar, the King of Wrath braced himself on the ground with both arms and legs. The nightmare mist in all directions was blown away by the violent power of his rage, and the twisted nightmare mud was like rolling waves. The King of Zhenyue, who had been fighting the King of Dreams, only felt a black shadow rushing towards him. The next moment, he heard a "boom" and his body appeared hundreds of meters away.

With a thud, the King of Zhenyue fell to the ground.

"How dare you..."

The severely damaged King Zhenyue grimaced, unable to rise from the ground for a moment, which shows how badly Chengdu was damaged.

The King of the Moon was not weak; he was able to fight the Third Servant of the Nightmare Slime, the King of Fear, alone without being at a disadvantage. Unfortunately, he was no match for the King of Wrath.

This is the power of the King of Wrath.

As the first servant of the Nightmare Sludge Fear Demon King, the Wrathful King possesses the highest storage of terror power below the Nightmare World Fear Demon King. He only needs to master the rules of the Nightmare World's terror power to advance to become a new Fear Demon King!

The story of how the Limitless Demon Lord's Servant was able to fight against the Fear Demon Lord in the low-level Nightmare Realm is that this King of Wrath fought against the Nightmare Mist Fear Demon Lord independently in his own realm!

Thus, this King of Wrath was secretly revered as the number one demon king's servant in the nightmare world.

The King of Wailing, with his hundred-meter-tall body, laughed loudly. The Twin Kings, the King of Gluttony, and the King of Wrath—the three strongest servants under the other three great fear demons of the Nightmare World—had all arrived.

Although he was the second servant of the Nightmare Worm, the power he could unleash within his Nightmare Domain would surpass that of any other servant of the Demon King here.

Click, click, click.

Unlike the King of Wrath, who immediately launched a devastating attack on the King of the Moon, the King of Gluttony's giant hand landed on the Wailing Web binding the Twin Kings, chewed it up, and swallowed it.

The King of Wailing, however, remained unperturbed and did not weave a web of wailing to bind them.

Here, within his own nightmare realm, even these so-called First Demon King's servants are no match for him!

That is why the Great Nightmare Worm, the Fear Lord, did not send his First Servant, the Roaring King, but instead sent himself.

Behind the four Demon King attendants, there were several auxiliary Demon King attendants standing in varying numbers, while further away, there were numerous Demon King attendants who were not even ranked.

Green's plan to rely on his hunter abilities to the fullest and grow into a nightmare creature comparable to the Dreadlord in a short time was thwarted by the appearance of many powerful demon lord servants.

Green only hoped that the blood-red full moon in the nightmarish world sky would set soon and the black full sun would rise as soon as possible.

However, even though the time had clearly come, there was still no sign of day and night changing in the surrounding nightmare world.

The giant ape, standing fifty meters tall, stood among numerous powerful demon king attendants, its aura only slightly weaker than that of these strongest demon king attendants.

"How dare you defy the will of the Great Nightmare Mist Demon Lord! How dare you obstruct my actions! Do you... wish to incite a new war in the Nightmare World?"

The Twin Kings' master had bloodshot eyes, while the lieutenant on his shoulder was in excruciating pain, closing his eyes and doing his best to maintain his master's sanity after his complete demonic transformation.

The tail connecting the master and the servant is like an umbilical cord.

The King of Wrath, his strong arms supporting him on the ground, stood up, his enormous belly round and protruding, and his eyes flashing with a brutal will.

The King of Wrath snarled, "The Nightmare Sludge Dreadlord, as the oldest Dreadlord in the Nightmare World at this moment, is the guide of the Demon World and the hope of the Nightmare World! Everything we do is to save the Nightmare Sludge Dreadlord, to save the Nightmare World, and to prevent the birth of the Judgment Rules!"

The King of Wailing, with his hundred-meter-tall body and arms crossed, spoke from the wailing mouth at his navel: "The Nightmare World is already restrained by the rules of those wizard fairy tales. If another rule of judgment, speculated by the Nightmare Mud Fear Demon King, were to appear, we would be doomed."

With a loud "boom," the Gluttonous King, who supported the Nightmare Mist Fear Demon King, stepped forward.

"The Nightmare World only has 40,000 years left! Those evil and brutal wizards are dragging it towards destruction! We cannot sit idly by and wait for our doom, heeding the alarmist pronouncements of the Nightmare Sludge Lord, and awaiting that arbitrary fate!"

As it spoke, the gluttonous maw on the giant hand of the Gluttonous One opened, and...

It actually spat out a fragment of the Wizarding World Heart that had exhausted its energy!

That is, witch spirits.

"The collapse of the Wizarding World's Heart is unstoppable. Evil wizards are even using the Nightmare World's structure to weave a seven-colored sealing spell, delaying the collapse. If we do nothing and wait for so-called fate, sooner or later, even if the Nightmare World and the Wizarding World's parasitic bond breaks, we will completely lose the ability to parasitize other worlds, severing all ties with the real world and returning to the Dream World. At that time, we will become a truly illusory world, just like the dimensional gaps!"

The King of Gluttony roared madly.

At this moment, it was the King of Dreams who suddenly stepped forward!

In this world of nightmares teeming with powerful beings, the King of Dreams is probably at the very least qualified to speak; even a weaker Demon King's servant wouldn't have the right to utter a word.

"Twenty years ago, I was just a hair's breadth away from proving that the Judgment Rules were forming, just as the Great Nightmare Sludge Fear Lord had predicted. It was this wizard who was trapped that ruined all the effort I had spent ten thousand years on! Ten thousand years, and only then, through one endless dream after another, did I finally find a black wizard apprentice with suitable mental strength in the wizarding world..."

Clenching his teeth, the King of Dreams pointed at the giant ape surrounded by rings, his hatred intense.

"The rules of judgment must exist. Otherwise, those previous dreadlords wouldn't have disappeared without a trace after their rebirth! The rules of judgment must be what the Nightmare Sludge dreadlord deduced—using the Fallen Ones of the Nightmare World to create Nightmare Wizards in the Wizarding World!"

Surrounded by numerous demon king servants, Grimm had clearly sensed that something was amiss.

According to the usual schedule, the nightmare world should have entered daytime by now, and the black sun should have risen.

But at this moment, the sky was shrouded in mist, the nightmare fog obscuring the sky and concealing the rules of the cycle of day and night in this nightmare world.

Is this the power of the Nightmare Mist, the Fear Demon King?

Changing the rules is absolutely terrifying!

Grimm was unconcerned about the hatred the King of Dreams harbored towards him. After conquering world after world, the wizards faced endless hatred from the native creatures. Why would Grimm care about the hatred of a nightmare creature?

If the rules of judgment create nightmare wizards, then the possibility of someone like Solem, as Green speculated, is extremely high!

Nightmare Wizard...

First, the characteristic of immortality makes them extremely afraid of sealing power.

The second is similar to bloodline sorcery, which borrows the bloodline abilities of creatures from the endless material world before they fell into the nightmare world and became the fallen ones.

Green carefully recalled that every time Solem transformed, the ominous aura and the rules of the Nightmare World were indeed extremely similar.

However, rather than thinking about these trivial matters at this moment, Green was more concerned about creating a breakthrough to get himself out of this predicament of being a lamb to the slaughter!

Unbeknownst to them, time passed, and the nightmare fog caused by the vortex mark on Green's body became increasingly heavy.

"Hmph hmph hmph hmph, hmph hmph hmph hmph hmph..."

Suddenly, the Gemini King, whose eyes were gradually losing their focus, let out a low laugh.

The Twin Kings' voice, a mixture of shrillness and hoarseness, said, "If the Nightmare World loses all hope of regaining its ability to regenerate, and we therefore run away, no longer attempting rebirth, then... what are we? Are we a bunch of clowns who evolved to make the dreams of those humans in the Wizarding World more exciting!?"
