In the silent battlefield, my sudden and incoherent words confused everyone, but what followed was a chill down their spines, as there was actually something here that they could not detect!

But only I understand that I am thanking the first city lord. Is this the feeling of being blessed by good luck?

All of this happened as if it was a natural progression. Is this what it’s like to be the protagonist?

But unfortunately, if I were given a choice, I still would not choose to be such a protagonist.

"Now it's time for you to find the answers on your own. I will only help you this time, and only this time."

As I finished speaking, a crisp snap of fingers resounded throughout the battlefield, and an invisible domain instantly expanded outwards.

Nightmare realm, open!

Chapter 352 The truth?

When the invisible domain enveloped the entire battlefield, all real consciousness was pulled into the dream. For the nightmare demon, the former home field has become a prison now.

They had no choice but to escape, because they had to face the elite of the Extraordinary Academy who had been suppressed!

The barbarians in the animal academy clenched their fists so hard that they made a creaking sound. The same was true for the other students. They had been waiting for such a moment for too long.

They looked at the only focus here, that witch had given them this opportunity. Gratitude? Admiration? Worship?

Maybe both, but more of it is the fear of the other party that is beyond their ability to understand.

They couldn't understand why there was such a huge gap between freshmen. Was the educational gap between colleges really so big?

"Dream demon...ah! I've tolerated you for so long! Take this punch from me!"

As those people from the animal hospital couldn't help but take action first, they rushed towards the nightmare demon closest to him, until their fist made solid contact with the nightmare demon's cheek, and then they knocked it over with brute force... everyone confirmed that all this was not fake!

"Kill! Kill all these nightmares!"

After someone in the crowd shouted this, everyone began to vent their frustrations to these nightmares.

Amid the chaos, I withdrew from the center of the battlefield.

Such a battle doesn't even require my intervention. If I have done this much, and they still have such a large number of people to crush them, and they can still let a few nightmares escape, then I can only say that they deserve the word "waste".

"Thank you, your luck is really useful." I walked back to the extraordinary item formed by the luck seed. At this moment, the first city lord looked a little haggard, although I still couldn't see his facial features.

"I should thank you... After this time... please hand me over to the new mayor of Ninglan New City..."

"Are you going to continue protecting Ninglan New City?"

"Yes…"

"Do you have any requirements for the new city lord? Although I don't want to discourage you, Ning Lanqiu Yu is the last male descendant of your Ning Lan lineage, and the only girl left is Ning Lanqiu Yue."

"I know... I know a lot of information about Ninglan New City, and even why there is only one male next generation, Ninglan Qiuyu. I also know that. Please return me to Ninglan Qiuyue."

"Then she will be the first female city lord of Ninglan New City."

"What does it matter?"

"Yes, this has nothing to do with me either."

"... "

At this moment, just as I was talking to the first city lord, the battle at the Extraordinary Academy was coming to an end.

I once said that I believed in the strength of these people, and the facts proved that it was indeed the case. It was an undoubted crushing situation. Now the nightmares were truly reunited as sisters, and they would die on the same day of the same month of the same year.

I looked at the summoning channel that was gradually shrinking due to energy depletion. I sacrificed the flesh and blood energy of most of the residential areas in the underground city, but in the end it led to such a situation.

And I truly felt the cruelty of the script's advancement. Ordinary people who don't know the truth are even honored to be cannon fodder. This statement is really ironic.

Do their deaths have meaning?

What did they get in return? A gamble that allowed these sons of luck to get the truth. Even now, none of them felt sad for the victims.

Including...me.

"Don't! Don't kill me! I promised you that! It's me! I can tell you the truth!"

"You! You traitor!"

"You bastard! Why don't you just go die! Why don't you just summon us all here so that I can die with you!"

"What a joke! If I hadn't summoned you here, you would have been scratching your heads trying to find a way to enter the main world! What right do you have to scold me!"

As some of these nightmare demons were captured and others were beaten into pieces by people who didn't know how to control their strength, this battle that was like a farce to me came to an end.

When the nightmare demon begged for mercy, many people finally realized why they had experienced this battle. It was naturally for the questions and answers that the nightmare demon had previously raised, or in other words... the truth.

Therefore, all the nightmares that prevented the nightmare from speaking were slapped in the face, which was extremely frustrating.

Some nightmare demons seem to foresee their own end, realize that they cannot turn things around, cannot endure all this, and choose to commit suicide.

But none of that matters.

"Haha... I admit that we lost. I said that even if we win in the end, I will still tell the truth, because sometimes the truth is more cruel than you expected..."

After calming down, the nightmare no longer resisted, but her tone was somewhat mocking, as if she was not the one who lost the battle.

At this moment, even I turned my head subconsciously, as if I was curious about what truth she would tell.

At this moment, the first generation city lord also disappeared at this moment. It seemed that without the maintenance of flesh and blood energy, it stopped working like a toy without a battery.

But I caught it and put it away carefully.

I don't know what a supernatural item is, but from the feedback of my spiritual vision, I understand that the power to control destiny is not the ability of the first city lord, but he did it with the help of this supernatural item.

When I came into contact with it again, I seemed to have the illusion that I could also use its ability, but in order to use it... it seemed that I had to pay an equal price.

I can even control this extraordinary object and deprive me of all my luck.

This feeling is something I didn't get when I first came into contact with the white crystal. It seems that the real user of this extraordinary item at that time should be the first city lord, and now, he seems to have been forced offline, so I can use it.

When I realized that there was a first-generation city lord in this extraordinary item, I also felt his soul in it, but it was only a trace, which was much different from that of a normal person. Why did this trace of soul appear in it?

It seemed that this trace of soul was entangled with this seed of luck, and the luck inside it wrapped around this trace of soul, allowing it to continue for a thousand years.

This is truly magical. If that’s the case… theoretically, if his soul is complete, the first Lord of Ninglan City can even be resurrected!

"Don't interrupt us! What on earth is this sleeping curse you mentioned earlier?"

"How do I know what kind of sleeping curse your main world created? That's just the instinctive behavior of nightmares. You should be thankful that they are just a group of dream creatures without self-awareness, otherwise they would be more difficult enemies than us nightmares."

"Then why did you come here and target us so much!"

At this moment, another person at the side questioned the nightmare. Her tone was very bad, and from her red eyes, it could be seen that her friend seemed to have died here.

"I almost forgot, you idiots from the main world don't even know what luck is, right?"

"Luck?"

Just when everyone was curious about this concept, the nightmare ignored them and continued to speak.

"We are here for the luck of your main world! The luck of Ninglan New City! Someone from your main world stuffed the luck into the nightmare's body, and then sent the nightmare here. In fact, this is a game of competing to kill the nightmare! It is impossible for the nightmare to carry luck, so all of you have been arranged... Do you know why?"

"Because... because most of you gathered here are... the sons of destiny of the main world!"

"Oh no, it's the Son of Fortune who is waiting to be chosen! You are not the real Son of Fortune yet! Because... there is only one real Son of Fortune!"

Having said this, the nightmare's voice was almost a roar, she wanted everyone to hear it.

As teenagers in modern society, how could they not understand the concepts of so-called luck and the son of luck?

Those novels that are popular on the Internet, with the protagonist being the son of destiny, these concepts are already familiar to us.

But now they are told that they are the sons of destiny!

How could this not surprise them?

When the nightmare demon said that there was only one true son of destiny, many people subconsciously looked at me.

Because in their opinion, if one of the people present must be the true son of destiny, then there seems to be only one person who best fits the bill...

"Why are you all looking at me?" At this moment, I crossed my arms across my chest and my tone seemed calm, because I knew myself very well and was not afraid at all.

"And you... your name is... Yang Yuehan, right? You are the most special one among all these people... you must be the son of destiny! Let me tell you, there will only be one and only one son of destiny! All of you will become stepping stones for the final one! Use the glory of your life to build the ladder for him to ascend to the top throne!"

As the Nightmare Demon finished speaking, everyone fell silent. No one wanted to be a stepping stone for others, but from everything that had happened since the Dream Exchange Contest began until now, it seemed that only one person fit the bill.

The opponent crushed everyone with absolute superiority and stood at the peak that they could not climb.

"Can I understand that you are trying to sow discord?" A smile retreated from the corner of my mouth, but the eyes of the people looking at me were full of disdain and ridicule.

There is no basis for sowing discord here. Even if everyone here joins forces, they can't even touch the corner of each other's clothes.

"So what! I know you won't fall into civil strife just because of a few words from me, and you seem to be high and mighty, do you think you can do whatever you want as the protagonist of this world?"

"... "

"All of you need to work hard for luck. Do you think your coming here is just a coincidence? You are nothing but slaves of luck. You gather here... just because there is luck here that attracts you. Those nightmares, if it weren't for us, those nightmares would be your enemies. You would do anything for luck. Even if you don't know the concept of luck, you would hunt those nightmares for other reasons and indirectly obtain luck, such as to go back."

"The concept of controlling destiny is a script, and you are just pawns who act according to the world's script without knowing it! Puppets!"

"And the ones who control the world's script are none other than the top leaders of your so-called Extraordinary Academy, those extraordinary people whom you call teachers, deans, and principals!"

"They hold your fate in their hands, turning your luck into strings and manipulating you like puppets! Just let them manipulate you at will!"

"And you fools know nothing!"

Every word spoken by the nightmare demon at this moment was like a heavy hammer hitting their hearts.

They are... pawns, puppets?

Is their behavior manipulated?

The instigators of all this turned out to be the teachers and dean of the Extraordinary Academy! This was a profound blow to them, and even those who did not believe it would plant the seeds of doubt.

At this moment, Tan Han was also stunned when she heard the truth. Although she had expected it, she did not expect it to be like this.

She seemed to recall the last conversation she had with Xiaohan. She asked how big this scam was, and Xiaohan's answer was that there was no escape. How apt this description was at this moment.

This is a scam targeting them involving all the extraordinary academies.

This is an inevitable outcome as long as they try to step into the extraordinary world, but Tan Han is very curious why, why her and these people.

Xiao Han knew something clearly, but she seemed unable to say it out loud. Either she had signed a confidentiality agreement or had been warned or threatened, so she could only hint at it.

But...if this truth cannot be known by the Son of Destiny himself, then...why does Xiaohan know it?

Could it be that she discovered the truth herself?

But it is obvious that what Xiaohan knows is definitely not as simple as what he figured out himself.

So is Xiaohan also a child of luck?

However, Xiao Han's previous actions did not seem to be what a person who knew that he was the son of luck should do. For example, distancing himself from himself was the biggest flaw.

The other party's behavior undoubtedly implied that he was the so-called son of luck. After learning about this, the other party subconsciously chose to stay away from him.

And... since all this was a trap set up by all the academies, a scam, why would the Extraordinary Academy just let the other party tell the truth?

Is it because it can't be stopped?

So Tan Han knew that she had to get things clear. Now that the truth has been revealed, will Xiao Han be honest with her?

But before that she needed to ask this nightmare some questions.

"Impossible! You are lying to us! How can there be such a thing as luck in this world! No one is born to be the protagonist!"

Just when Tan Han was about to speak, a female voice that sounded a little broken yelled at the nightmare demon. Her outburst instantly led to many people's rebuttal.

After all, when faced with an unknown and unacceptable truth, people often choose to escape or even refute it violently, trying to eliminate everything beyond their cognition.

Perhaps this is also a cognitive correction of destiny?

"That's right! You're a liar! You're just a captive! You're still stubborn now, go back to your abyss!"

"Kill her!"

The nightmare demons looked at these people who said they didn't believe her, but became crazy and unreasonable because of her words. Even their anger couldn't cover up the fear in their hearts. These nightmare demons couldn't help but show a mocking look on their faces, and they even seemed to have forgotten the fear they had just felt.

Yes, they cannot go back alive, but they can reveal the truth and let these people feel the pain that the truth brings!

"Yes, this world has never been fair. Some people are born to be the protagonist, while others are born to be the supporting roles! This is the fate that you cannot resist!"

"You are nothing but poultry raised in the main world, waiting to be harvested by those extraordinary academies. You know nothing!"

"The truth they have hidden from you is far more than this! Just take your time to guess!"
