I created a safe zone in the nightmare world.

Chapter 84 You're an expert outside, but here you're just a newbie in the safe zone (Please subscribe)

This battle was indeed arduous.

With the three-piece strategy set and their own strength improved, which member-level powerhouse in the safe zone doesn't have the ability to independently conquer nightmares?

The process of figuring it out isn't too difficult.

But this battle lasted for a full ten minutes, to the point that even the main road was being obliterated.

When the reinforcements from the Countermeasures Bureau, the elites from the Strategy Group, arrived, they found only a scene of severed limbs and mangled flesh.

The ground was littered with grotesque limbs!

"Are we too late?"

"No, you've come at the perfect time. Come and help clean up the battlefield."

Clean up the strange pieces of flesh and gather up the valuable loot.

Are these chores really meant for heroes who fight the supernatural to do?

"But Old Song, how exactly did you manage to hold out? I heard there were four strange entities surrounding you!"

After saying this to the policy experts, they realized something was amiss.

Did Lao Song and his group manage to hold on? They clearly wiped out all the strange creatures!

Is the logistics team that good?

"Of course we didn't do it."

Even now, Song Jianshen has not fully recovered from the fierce battle just now.

On behalf of the Countermeasures Bureau, he expressed his gratitude to the powerful figures such as Xuanjian, Xixue, and Fagui for their support.

At this moment, Song Jianshen noticed that many of the Dream Fallers who had come to his aid had already disappeared, and a few others looked like they were about to leave as well.

Why is that?

Was it because their strategy bureau failed to provide adequate hospitality? No, the great battle has only just ended, and their hospitality hasn't even begun yet.

But Xi Xue said matter-of-factly, "We've already dealt with the strange creatures, what are we all still doing here?"

When it comes to personal gain, everyone is here on a mission.

From a moral standpoint, the rescue has been completed, and the matter is indeed over.

If it weren't for the fact that they represented the Wizarding House, and that the Wizarding House and the Countermeasures Bureau were close partners, they would have wanted to leave too.

Peach said, "Everyone's time in the Dream is precious. It's normal to either continue to conquer nightmares or develop your own cursed items and hone your cursed skills. Team Leader Song, there's no need to be surprised."

She thought so too.

But the thought that she was still wearing the Dream-Falling Pearl, which granted her a longer period of dream-falling time than others, made her feel at peace. What's a little wasted time?

She also acted as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

Team Leader Song, and the veteran agent from the Countermeasures Bureau standing to the side, both had big question marks on their foreheads.

They recognized all the words, but when they were put together, they couldn't understand them.

What does it mean to say that time is precious when you're in a dream?

Isn't it better for nightmares to be as short as possible?

What does it mean to either continue conquering the nightmare or to develop your own cursed artifacts to hone your skills?

Who among those who are trapped in nightmares can recklessly squander their power in the world of nightmares?

Song Jianshen opened his mouth, but still couldn't bring himself to ask the question.

Since things had come to this, he invited Xi Xue and the others to rest at their logistics camp, as a gesture of hospitality.

During the conversation, he gradually confirmed the identities of the people.

Xuan Jian is indeed the youngest disciple of the master of the Jiyi Martial Arts School.

Xi Xue and Tao Zi are also rising stars that the Wizarding House has been promoting recently.

Wait, you call this a rookie?

They are rising stars, and what am I?

This camp of the Countermeasures Bureau is used for logistical purposes.

.

The defensive setup was far less robust than that of a real frontline camp, which allowed the insidious attack to slip through.

However, as a logistics camp, the supplies here are plentiful.

The Countermeasures Bureau itself also plans to operate this camp for a long time, since the capital has been built and its value should be maximized.

Therefore, even in the nightmare world, the logistics camp still has no shortage of food and drink.

This time, in order to entertain the group, Song Jianshen brought out a lot of his treasured items, far more than those compressed biscuits that could only fill their stomachs.

But why do they all seem to be eating with little interest?

After a fierce battle, the strong should be resting and recovering their strength and energy, but why do these people look like they can't wait to leave?

This is a campsite! A campsite where you can hide from danger!

Only inside the camp can the Dreamers sit down to rest and chat like this; outside, they are all like frightened birds.

"But what's so good about this campsite?"

Xi Xue muttered something under her breath, then Tao Zi stepped on her foot.

Peach gave her a wink: Although this place is really not great, we can't just say it outright.

They simply said goodbye quickly.

They do need rest, but the Countermeasures Bureau camp is drafty. Only when they return to the safe zone can they feel at home and truly rest and recover.

After the others left, Lao Yao, whose body was wrapped in bandages, also returned to the Countermeasures Bureau camp.

Old Yao explained in detail how he placed the commission and also mentioned the promised remuneration.

Song Jianshen said, "You did the right thing. It's just some resources and compensation, which our Strategy Bureau can afford. The most important thing is to keep people alive. This time, Lao Yao, you've done a great service."

After handling all the cleanup matters here—transmitting information to headquarters to report, reminding the assault team, etc.—he thought for a moment and said:

-

"Old Cai and Old Chen, you two stay here and keep watch at the camp. Let me know immediately if there's any news."

He looked at Lao Yao: "Lao Yao, which direction is the safe zone camp? I need to go and visit that shop manager."

Old Yao was seriously injured, and his arm was wrapped in bandages.

He only wanted Lao Yao to point him in the right direction, but Lao Yao said, "I'll lead the way."

Old Yao added, "My injury is nothing serious. If there really is a problem, I'm more likely to be rescued once I'm in a safe zone."

Team Leader Song: "————"

He had heard about the wonders of the safe zone many times, but you didn't have to be so direct.

But it's good to have Lao Yao leading the way, since Lao Yao knows the store manager and can introduce him.

He looked at Lao Cai and Lao Chen: "I'm leaving the camp to you. Be careful. Although this nightmare has been conquered and the calamity has subsided, this strange occurrence is clearly not right. We must not be careless."

The two indicated that they understood.

Old Cai hesitated, wanting to say that he also wanted to go to the safe zone.

He was eager to see what changes had occurred in the safe zone.

However, Lao Song is the boss, and Lao Yao knows the exact location of the safe zone this time.

In the end, Lao Cai remained silent, sadly guarding the simple countermeasures bureau camp.

The safe zone and the countermeasures bureau camp are, after all, in the same Amu area.

Even though the two didn't walk very fast, they arrived at their destination in just a few minutes.

In front of a brightly lit shop.

Song Jianshen straightened his clothes, trying to make them as neat as possible.

He imagined what the safe zone camp would look like.

He also visited some of the better-built camps.

However, when he pushed open the shop door and was met with a cacophony of noise, he was still taken aback.

"Take a look! Hey, this is a freshly made cursed artifact. Take it away for just 998 Dream Dust."

"I heard the Countermeasures Bureau is working on some massive nightmare. Anyone want to team up and tag along?"

"Hey buddy, bring me two more glasses of iced soda!"

The camp was as bustling as a market.

Some people were setting up stalls to trade, some were recruiting teammates, and even more incredibly, some were drinking and playing cards.

Is that correct?

Is this still a nightmare world?

For a moment, Team Leader Song even thought he had escaped the nightmare and returned to reality. But before falling into the nightmare, he was in the headquarters office, and shouldn't have gone to a place like a tavern.

He silently walked out of the store.

Looking outside, the world was still gray, cold, and silent.

He stepped into the store and was immediately greeted by a lively and bustling atmosphere.

Just a door separates two worlds.

Among those who were doing business or playing cards, many were familiar faces. They were the very people who had just finished providing support and hadn't lingered long.

Song Jianshen seemed to understand why these people were no longer staying.

Isn't it much more comfortable to stay here than in their rudimentary camp at the Policy Bureau?

Not far away, a fellow dreamer was still lamenting, "Hey, your battle ended too quickly, we two brothers didn't even get a sip of soup."

"Don't be disappointed, buddy. There will definitely be plenty of opportunities like this in the future. The key is to get a membership. As long as we're members, we'll receive the news immediately and be able to rush to the battlefield right away. Even if we're just earning contribution points, it can snowball!"

"Yes, let's set a small goal: become a member-level expert within a month!"

Song Jianshen found himself unable to keep up with the conversations of the dreamers here.

There are far too many technical terms.

Someone noticed his bewildered expression. "Is he a newbie?"

A newcomer? How long has it been since he was called a newcomer?

He's a squad leader in the Second Detachment of the Countermeasures Bureau, currently the commander of the logistics camp, an instructor at the Countermeasures Bureau's training camp, and a master at the Great Perfection of the Control Stage—yet he's being treated as a newcomer?!

"Yes, I'm a newcomer."

Thanks for the invitation, I'm a complete newbie.

There are so many new things here, it's dazzling.
