Chapter 573 Nightmare Servants and Kings
Nightmare Manor.

All the waiters gathered in front of the castle, standing in two neat rows, silent.

The manor owner stood on the steps, with his hands behind his back, and said:

"Calm down, don't make any impolite actions, and keep the same behavior and demeanor as the companions around you, otherwise I can't guarantee your fate."

"Yes, my lord."

The waiters responded in unison.

The manor owner took out a pocket watch to check the time, nodded and said, "There are still five seconds."

Everyone stood there holding their breath.

Deep in the sky, a dull roar suddenly sounded. . .

A dark gray mist fell from the clouds, fell like a meteor, and hit a huge crater on the lawn in front of the manor.

The owner of the manor saluted gracefully, and said, "Welcome to the manor, Lord of Nightmare, Nightmare King Luo of the souls of all beings."

A black figure floated up from the crater.

I saw it was six meters high, with deep black awns exuding from top to bottom, humanoid shape, with seven or eight long black hands growing from its back, trembling slightly with the breeze.

It has a face similar to that of an adult human male, and its expression is full of peace and compassion.

"Are all the fruits I want ready?" it asked.

"Yes, my master, everything is ready." The manor owner said.

He drew out a whole set of cards and sent them respectfully into the void.

The card flew over and landed in front of the Nightmare King Luo.

"Yes, these souls have been cultivated to a fairly high level..."

Nightmare Luo Wangcha looked at the cards. Among the clusters of long black hands on his back, suddenly a hand stretched out far away and grabbed one of the many waiters.

A large mouth full of sharp fangs emerged from the void.

The waiter didn't even have time to scream, he was dragged into the mouth and disappeared.

"Huh? The waiter you hired recently is not bad."

Nightmare King Luo looked down at the cards, and the long hands on his body flew out, grabbed the group of waiters, and threw them all into the air.

Jaws full of fangs appeared one after another.

They bit the waiters, took them lightly, and then swallowed the waiters into their mouths, chewing them continuously.

For a time, the void was full of chewing and wailing sounds.

The owner of the manor lowered his head humbly and said, "It is my honor to be praised by the adults."

"But I heard that guy covered in tentacles has been here recently, what is he doing here?" Nightmare King Luo asked.

"It presided over the first attack of the tide of nightmares, so it stopped by to take a look." The manor owner said.

"It's obviously a piece of rubbish, but it wants to be the first to harvest the souls of the Eternal Night world. Does it think that Eternal Night is so simple?" King Nightmare Luo said.

The manor owner lowered his head, kept smiling, and said nothing.

King Nightmare Luo waited for a while, and seeing that he was silent, he said, "Yes, it's really inconvenient to talk about us Nightmare Lords in front of you servants, so I'm leaving."

"My lord, there is one more thing." The manor owner said.

"what?"

"The dead soul experiment in hell has encountered some trouble."

"About the experiment of the soul?——You servants, you have tried every means to make the soul more delicious. This is commendable."

Nightmare King Luo thought for a moment, then decided: "Okay, I'll go there myself."

"Thank you sir for solving our problems." The manor owner saluted deeply.

"It's nothing, it's just some souls with different tastes... It's really wonderful to see them struggling desperately in my mouth... Even those souls that have gone crazy."

The voice fell.

Nightmare Luo Wang gradually disappeared from the void.

It wasn't until dozens of breaths later that the manor owner slowly raised his head and let out a soft breath.

He looked around the empty manor and murmured:

"No matter which master comes, I will recruit a new group of men... Tsk."

……

the other side.

hell.

Liu Ping asked:
"Are you stuck here?"

In the large glass vessel opposite him, a female corpse in a red robe floated in a transparent solution.

Around this large glass vessel, there are more narrow glass vessels like coffins, filled with various living beings.

Obviously, this is the masterpiece of nightmare monsters.

"No, I'm not trapped here," the voice of Gaia, the mother of the earth, sounded from the crimson ring on Liu Ping's hand:

"This is just my slough, it no longer has any power - you have to find my eyes, everything about me is in the eyes."

Liu Ping looked at the female corpse, and sure enough, there were only a pair of deep eye sockets in the place of the female corpse's eyes, and the eyes had long disappeared.

"It's a wonderful idea to hide your mind with your eyes." God praised.

"Get out, old man, as long as you have the courage to stand up and fight, I will not end up like this." Gaia, the mother of the earth, said irritably.

"Nothing can be forced, my dear lady." God sighed.

Liu Ping coughed lightly and asked, "Ma'am, where are your eyes?"

"It's trapped in a completely dark place, I can sense it - come this way." Mother Earth Gaia said.

A ray of red light emerged from the ring, across the hall full of glassware and corpses, and pointed to a small door in the wall.

Liu Ping jumped up lightly, and stretched out his hand to open the door.

wow-

The door fell straight down and fell to pieces on the ground.

Just as Liu Ping was about to take action, he suddenly saw lines of burning small characters appearing quickly:

"Notice!"

"This sequence detects unprecedented danger and temporarily loads the mission system."

"Immediately post survival missions:"

"You must hurry up and leave hell immediately."

"—or you must engage in a doomed battle and survive it at the last minute."

"You can choose one of the two, and you will get a reward at the end of the mission: a brand new scene."

"Mission failure: total death, the end of everything."

Liu Ping was startled.

"Did something happen?" he asked.

"The situation is urgent, please act immediately!" Sequence responded.

At the same time, a line of small characters flashed continuously in the void:

"Abnormal fluctuations have begun to appear. This feature is definitely not something that ordinary nightmare servants can have. It should be another nightmare master."

Lord of nightmares?

Liu Ping thought about it carefully, and suddenly discovered something.

Since replacing Delia, the teachers, parents, ladies, waiters, manor owners and other existences I have come into contact with all play the role of cultivators of the souls of all living beings.

Even he and God teamed up to blow up that world, and it was called "Dense Grain Town".

All of these are for the sake of existence, that is——

Lord of nightmares.

Since the sequence says "another Nightmare Lord", this proves that there is definitely more than one Nightmare Lord.

What exactly are these beings like?
...No, I can't go.

This matter must be clarified.

Liu Ping sighed and said: "Ma'am, God, it seems that there is a nightmare master coming. I plan not to run away for the time being, but to find the lady's eyeballs first, then leave hell through that secret path, and go back to the Holy Kingdom—you guys Can you help me?"

"I will do my best to help you." Gaia, the mother of the earth, said.

"God be with you," God said.

"Okay, then let's move on!" Liu Ping said eagerly.

He quickened his pace, walked through the long corridor, and entered a brand new hall.

I saw a huge monster standing in the middle of the hall.

It seems to be the product of the fusion of countless souls, with painful faces constantly appearing all over its body.

A man holding a violin stood aside, gently pulling the strings, releasing a series of requiem notes, trying to calm the monster.

Lucifer!
He noticed Liu Ping's appearance, and immediately said, "Don't get close, it's dangerous."

"Lucifer has lost his power, so he can only calm this monster temporarily, but you can kill it, and the countless souls in it should be liberated, and they will guide us to find the eyeballs." The voice of God came.

Liu Ping grabbed a sharp-sounding spear from the void, and threw it with all his strength——

The monster was pierced immediately.

Countless faces on it looked at Liu Ping together, and roared resentfully: "Damn you!"

"Be careful, it's a wraith spell. You will be cursed to die, but this spell has a weakness. If you know the skills of feigning death, you can be exempted." Gaia, the mother of the earth, reminded.

Liu Ping shrugged and said, "I listen to you, both of you."

He shook his body a few times, fell to the ground, and said, "Ah, I'm dead."

"Look, does this look like you? You men are all virtuous." Gaia, the mother of the earth, said to God.

"……"God.

Waited for a while.

All the curse fluctuations in the void subsided as expected.

Liu Ping got up from the ground and looked at the monster, only to see that it was nailed to the stone pillar by the spear, and it couldn't escape after struggling for a long time.

The gray stone gradually spread from the spear's penetration point, quickly petrifying the entire monster.

It gradually turned into a huge, eerie sculpture.

"Liu Ping, the petrified spear can only be petrified, and only one blow is needed."

Andrea said.

She handed over a three-meter-high steel sledgehammer from the void.

"Are there any smaller ones?" Liu Ping asked.

"This one can be knocked a little farther away," Andrea said.

"Give me a mace, and I'll throw it over." Liu Ping said.

Andrea thought about it too, it's safer this way.

"Okay, I'll look for it—I got it!"

A palm-sized silver mace appeared in front of Liu Ping.

Liuping grabbed the mace and threw it at the petrified monster with all his strength——

There was only a flash of silver light.

Large pieces of rubble flew apart and fell to the ground.

Monsters no longer exist.

at the same time.

On the other side of the castle—

At the gate of the castle, there stood a black human figure.

Lord of Nightmare Nightmare King Luo!

It was six meters tall, and a black hand deep on its back gently pushed forward.

The gates of hell burst open.

Nightmare King Luo walked in, looking around at the bloody water and countless corpses in the hall, a mocking smile gradually appeared on his face.

"OK……"

As soon as it uttered two words, all the corpses in the hall jumped up, stepped on the bloody water, and fled frantically towards the back of the hall.
