I felt the aura of extraordinary power that is unique to nightmares, but more of it seemed to be the fluctuation of soul essence.
In other words, when they drew this bloody ritual, it meant that one or more people had died.
"What is this thing...a thing for summoning nightmares?" I frowned as I looked at the complex arrangement and combination of runes on it. This kind of rune combination is something I have never seen before, so I don't know its specific effect.
Maybe I might have been troubled before, but not now.
You have to know that I have teleported here in my original form, so naturally I have everything I want.
Then, I took out something from the storage, which was the portable geomagnetic operating system.
It seems that I haven't used it for a while, but this place is so close to the earth veins, and the activation speed is very fast. It is still easy to rely on it to simulate the effect of this ritual.
Of course, I can also use the dream rewriting spell to copy it in the dream to try, but I am also afraid of accidents. What if I really summon the nightmare?
Therefore, it is safer to use the geomagnetic operating system for simulation, and just in case, a backup copy can be made. Of course, the main thing is convenience.
After some operations, I finally made this ritual run successfully on the geomagnetic system. After systematic analysis, it seems to constitute a sacrificial ritual. Some structures show that this seems to be part of a larger ritual. Because this independent ritual is not complete, it seems to have a structure that is linked to other rituals.
But one thing is certain, that is sacrificing flesh and soul and summoning unknown beings, this is all the possibilities given by the geomagnetic operating system.
"Sacrifice...flesh and soul, Ning Lanqiuyu is going to do something big." After figuring it out, I broke out in a cold sweat. Although I also don't like those ordinary people in the underground city, at least until now I have no intention of killing them. Ning Lanqiuyu has never had any grudges with these people, but directly sentenced these ordinary people to death and treated them as consumables.
"Oh? Isn't this Miss Yang Yuehan? I didn't expect that we would meet here."
Suddenly a voice sounded behind me, and it was Ning Lanqiuyu, who I thought had gone far away.
"Hmm? Indeed." I put away my geomagnetic operating system and looked at Ning Lanqiuyu at this moment. I don't think I was exposed so quickly, but I still don't understand why they would make a surprise attack.
Unless... they know I'm following them.
But how is this possible?
"I wonder if Miss Yang Yuehan can pretend that nothing happened?" Ning Lanqiuyu subconsciously touched her chest, the pendant that was somewhat similar to Ning Lanqiuyu's, and I felt the breath of the nightmare demon inside.
"Of course, I don't care about your shit."
"Haha, you are worthy of being the outsider who can see the nightmare. It seems that my attention to you is not wrong."
"Are you going to reveal your cards to me?" I thought the other party would just let it go, but I didn't expect that because I didn't play by the rules, the other party would reveal his cards first.
"You can assume that you killed the nightmare demon in Ning Lanqiuyue's body?"
"if not?"
"I see that you haven't shown any surprise so far. Have you already started to suspect me?"
"Ah."
"Then why don't you expose me?"
"Because I don't want to bother with your shit."
And I have already revealed this matter to the top brass of the base, but looking at his attitude, is this... I haven't informed him yet?
"You don't bother to care, but I can't just pretend you didn't see it."
"Oh?" I looked at Ning Lanqiuyu and the two bodyguards beside him. I also felt the breath of the nightmare demon on the bodyguards beside him. This meant that the nightmare demon had directly taken over their bodies. Does the nightmare demon have such a method?
In addition, the nightmare demon had previously demonstrated similar methods to the nightmare, pulling the consciousness of the city guards into the dream, so the methods of this nightmare demon are even more terrifying than I imagined.
But seeing them approaching me so foolishly, I confirmed one thing, that is, the top leaders of the base also did not reveal my strength to him, and... I can interfere with things in both dreams and reality.
That's it, that's it?
How dare they?
"You think I'm a thorn in your side, don't you?"
"Of course, when I found out that you could actually see the traces of the nightmare, I began to take you seriously and even began to be wary of all outsiders. However, after testing, it seems that you are the only special one, so this is easy."
"Really? So you're going to all this trouble just to get rid of me?"
"What a fuss?" Ning Lanqiuyu raised an inexplicable smile at this moment, "Why is it a fuss? Dealing with you is just a by-product..."
"The main thing is to sacrifice the civilians here?" I said before he could.
Although it is a question sentence, the tone is very affirmative.
"Hehe... those guys in the base highly respect you. It seems that you are really knowledgeable. You even know something about the methods of nightmares. It seems that there is indeed a special relationship between you outsiders and nightmares?"
"Guess what you want, but don't associate me with those disgusting things." I whispered, but looking at the two guards approaching me, my spellbook was activated, ready to kill these two guys at any time, "and... who gave you the confidence that two nightmares want to take me down?"
"How will you know if you don't try?"
Just as the other party said this to me with a smile, two long and thin fireballs directly pierced through the foreheads of the two guys. Even though I knew that these two guys were just puppets controlled by the nightmare and they were both innocent, I would not do anything at this time.
With two plops, the two men fell to the ground. Even the two nightmares that controlled them died completely in the powerful and sudden spell. The concentrated and compressed explosive fireball spell ignited their bodies in an instant, and the next moment, the two bodies that fell to the ground turned into charred bodies.
At this moment, the smile on Ning Lanqiuyu's face froze, and fear grew in his shrinking pupils.
He dared to come here personally and drive the nightmare demon to kill the other party. Wasn't it because he relied on the fact that outsiders were in a dream and could not cause any harm to him?
He looked at the two charred bodies on the ground. They were real people living in reality just like him!
Subconsciously, Ning Lanqiuyu's body began to tremble uncontrollably. It was the embarrassment of a pampered person facing death. Fear had already taken over his body. The burnt smell from the two people in front of him irritated his nostrils, making him realize that he had offended the wrong people at this moment.
The next moment, the opponent's knees softened and he fell to the ground.
"Don't... don't kill me..." He begged in an almost trembling voice, and his whole posture was so humble that he seemed to be burrowing into the ground.
"Ah... if I had known this would happen, why would I have become... huh?"
Just as I sighed and wondered how to deal with the situation, Ning Lanqiuyu's body suddenly burst out with a strong aura, and a dark power slowly emanated from his body. At this moment, Ning Lanqiuyu's limbs were tense, his muscles bulged, and directly pushed open his clothes.
At this moment, the nightmare demon in the pendant also appeared.
"You should have accepted the blessing of the abyss long ago. Only when you have the power, you are qualified to become the new king of Ninglan New City. Your weak body before was nothing but a shackle for you."
"Thank you, too." The nightmare said, looking at me.
I didn't hesitate either, and shot out a fireball with my backhand.
laugh--!
The opponent waved his hand and held up a shield, blocking the attack.
"Don't play this kind of trick in front of me. It's OK for dealing with some of my clones."
"Clone?!"
Chapter 343: Blessing of the Abyss Dream Demon
"Yes~ A nightmare that can be created with just a little flesh and soul is naturally weak."
"Impossible." I denied. They were clones of the guy in front of me...then how could I force that information out of them?
How could they be afraid of death?
Although they did show a certain degree of indifference to death and disregard for each other...
Or did the other party reveal this intentionally in order to allow Ning Lanqiu Yu to accept the so-called blessing of the abyss?
Doesn't that mean that I am also part of the conspiracy?
No...it's impossible. There are too many variables. She can't possibly predict what I'm going to do.
Is it just a coincidence, or is it the advancement of the script?
"Are you still trying to say that all the nightmares we encounter are your clones?" I asked with a frown, but the other party's purpose seemed to be obvious when asking this.
"Of course, calling them clones is not quite accurate. They are just half-finished nightmares made by sacrificing inferior flesh and soul. The only things in their heads are the commands I implanted in them."
“So that’s how it is…” So the clone she mentioned is not the same as what I understood. No wonder the resurrection technique can “resurrect” such a thing so mindlessly, or rather, this behavior cannot even be called resurrection.
At this moment, Ning Lanqiuyu has completely changed into two different appearances. His huge and ugly body is more than three meters tall when he stands up. Dark and complex power fills his body, and his eyes no longer have the brilliance he had when he was still a human.
"It's time to act, Ning Lanqiuyu. Give me the anchor and I'll place it in the center of the ceremony. The grand sacrificial ceremony should start. It's time to call all my sisters to come and play together!"
“…Yes…” Ning Lanqiuyu’s eyes flashed with a trace of struggle, but she finally responded “obediently”.
"Want to summon? Dream on!"
With a wave of my hand, I completely destroyed the sacrificial ceremony next to me.
But just as I broke the ritual, several blood-red beams of light suddenly rose from the dark underground city. The blood-red light illuminated the dome, replacing the light of the earth veins to illuminate the entire underground city.
"What? When did you..." I looked at the ritual light column in the distance in shock. Ning Lanqiuyu had never been to those places!
"Do you think the first batch of nightmares came down to play with you? Although you did kill a lot of them and reduced their efficiency, we have plenty of time, and the one in front of you is just a bait to lure you."
At this moment, I gritted my teeth, feeling unwilling to be plotted against. Previously, I had wondered if Ning Lanqiuyu could be a guy who could play against the nightmare demon, but I didn't expect that he was a puppet who was eaten to death without knowing it.
But I am too lazy to say anything to others, because...amn’t I being plotted against as well?
"Goodbye, little witch~ Although I am really surprised by the way you summoned your real body, I don't have time to waste with you, so... let Ning Lanqiuyu play with you. He has just obtained such power and now has nowhere to vent~"
After the nightmare said this, she gave me a wink with an expression that showed she was optimistic about me, and then left.
As the nightmare left, Ning Lanqiuyu suddenly exploded at this moment, and his originally decent clothes were completely torn.
Such a huge contrast is really sad.
But this does not mean that I will stop my actions. Facing such a monster, the so-called blessing of the abyss, this transformation of people reminds me of what the Demon Academy did to its students.
"Yang...Yue...Han..."
At this time, Ning Lanqiuyu could only make a hoarse and low roar from his throat, and his whole body exuded the stench and corruption of the abyss.
"It's all your fault...it's all because of you...!"
He growled, venting his inner anger and unwillingness at the moment, as if all his failure and futility were caused by me, and he waved his hideous limbs towards me.
As I waved my hand, several spells floated behind me and headed towards his body. He did not have the powerful defense of the nightmare demon, but the body that was torn apart by the spells exploded and healed again under the power of the abyss, as if his body was no longer that of a normal human being, but flesh and bones gathered under the power of the abyss.
Spells flew, blood spurted out of his body, and every blow took away his flesh and blood, consuming the power of the abyss in his body.
"Asshole, you damned fellow... Why do you outsiders have such powerful strength while we have nothing!"
"I will eat you! Chew your flesh and blood, and take your strength and make it mine..."
At this time, Ning Lanqiuyu was still rushing towards me even under the fire suppression of the floating spell. The blessing of the abyss gave him strong physical fitness, and he climbed on the buildings in this block. Every leap would leave broken rubble on the spot.
He was using his strong physical fitness to counter the gaps between my spell reactions.
And before long, he became more and more flexible, as if he was completely adapting to his strength.
"This is a terrifying ability to adapt..."
Even I have to sigh at the opponent's horror. Even if I want to get away and find trouble with that nightmare demon now, it will be difficult. The opponent will keep pestering me. When I fight against that nightmare demon, being harassed by this guy will greatly distract my attention.
Moreover... it was just after nightfall, and with such a huge commotion, people in the surrounding area got up one after another. Some even came out in their pajamas to check the situation. Some opened the windows and looked at the entire underground city area that was already bathed in blood red, and made sounds of helplessness.
The people nearby shouted "monster" when they saw Ning Lanqiuyu's fleeting figure.
It’s a pity that I don’t have the energy to care about what those people are like. I’ll be thankful if they don’t cause me trouble. If they are looking for death, I won’t save them.
"Ning Lanqiuyu, since you are still conscious, you should understand that our enemies have always been those nightmare demons. Don't you understand this?"
"I don't care... about you! Outsiders, nightmares... all of you are enemies invading us!"
"Your brain isn't working well?"
"You...you are nothing but slaves who have succumbed to the foreign enemies, and we are the last orthodoxy in the main world!"
"You..." Hearing his words, I also remembered the information that the nightmare I killed asked me at the beginning. At that time, Ning Lanqiuyu also learned the truth. We actually came from the same main world, but we were broken by foreign enemies...
At that time, the nightmare demon had already begun to sow discord between him and us outsiders...
Although I can't refute this kind of thing.
"Haven't you accepted the blessing of the abyss?"
"All this is because of you! I must live! And it can only be me!"
"Then let's go get rid of that nightmare together, and then we can settle our grudges."
"It's all the same... I can't be the city lord... The entire Ninglan New City will be destroyed along with me!"
"You actually said something like that. Then you are completely hopeless."
After hearing the typical villain speech from the other party, I also knew that verbal persuasion was useless. The belief that supported him to continue normally collapsed at this moment. I was not interested in wasting energy to build a new belief for him.
All I can say is that if Ninglan New City is passed down to this generation and encounters such a madman, their life will be over.
