Book of the Otherworld

Chapter 168 The Truth of the Nightmare Kingdom
Xing Tianyu looked at the old man in front of him, his scalp was numb for a while, and his heart was finished, could it be that his actions just now were discovered?
His brain was running fast, and he glanced at the nightmare lords not far away who were looking this way, and his mind was agitated, no, if he planned to do something to me, he would definitely not do it in front of the public, It is estimated that I did it in the corridor of the knowledge treasure house before.

The other party probably didn't know what he had discovered. He probably found him only because he asked for his information before, so he just had to deal with it.

Thinking of this, Xing Tianyu immediately made up his mind.

"Oh, thank you, old Merlin, you finally showed up. I was still thinking about how to find you."

Xing Tianyu had a surprised expression on his face.

That Meilin seemed a little strange, but he still stretched out his hand in a gentlemanly manner, signaling Xing Tianyu to say whatever he wanted.

"It's like this. I want to exchange a book of knowledge recently, but my money is a little tight, so I thought, it's best to find someone to help turn around. I heard that you are all the nightmare lords. I'm the most helpful person here, and he's still a senior, so he definitely doesn't lack merit points, so can you lend me a few hundred merit points?"

Xing Tianyu said with a slightly embarrassed but very calm expression.

That Mei Lin froze for a moment, obviously he was not expecting what Xing Tianyu said.

"Then what knowledge book do you want to exchange?"

"I want to exchange for the ability to kill in dreams. Of course, I don't want to kill people. I just want to improve my mental strength. I have been a nightmare lord for three years and I am only a junior lord. I am really ashamed. Now I have accumulated some merit points, so senior, you only need to lend me a few hundred more merit points."

Merlin thought for a while, "So how many merit points do you have now?"

"Well, I have 90 merit points in my hand now, so you only need to lend me another 910 merit points."

The corner of Merlin's mouth twitched twice, as if he was suppressing the killing intent in his heart.

"Young people, it's not a good habit to get something for nothing. If you want to improve your mental strength as soon as possible, you have to work hard to do tasks and earn merit, instead of borrowing from others. What are you going to use to repay it?"

"I swear by the reputation of the Nightmare Lord, I will definitely pay you back." Xing Tianyu said firmly and righteously.

However, Merlin seemed to have lost interest in him, "I'm afraid I can't lend you merit points, you can only rely on yourself, young man." He said coldly, and with a stick of magic staff, he disappeared instantly. up.

Xing Tianyu watched Mei Lin disappear, but he was suddenly relieved. It seems that no matter where or when you go, asking someone to borrow money is always the best way to make others ignore you.

He didn't stay any longer, and flew directly towards his own nightmare space. As he flew, he couldn't help but wonder in his heart, where did the disappearing nightmare lords go?Since a group of them will disappear every ten years, that is to say, it will be their turn in two or three years.What will happen then?

As a person who never disappeared, Merlin couldn't say for sure what kind of PY deal he had with the Nightmare King.

He turned around and looked, at this moment he had already flown to the edge of the atmosphere of the nightmare kingdom, looking at the majestic mountains, rivers and seas full of primitive features behind him, as well as those weird buildings with weird styles that made people difficult to imagine , and the seemingly beautiful but lifeless natural environment, Xing Tianyu couldn't help feeling a little chill in his heart.

These superficial beauties, like the bewitching branches and leaves of piranhas, attract the Nightmare Lord to join them. Those tasks, merits, levels, skill books, and those systems that make people feel very familiar and friendly like online games are actually all It's just a disguise to confuse them and make the Nightmare Lords relax their vigilance and indulge in it.

At this moment, the Nightmare Kingdom was no longer the land of opportunities and dreams he had longed for in the past, but instead looked like a monster lair full of terrible crises, which made him subconsciously feel a sense of fear.

He accelerated his speed suddenly, rushed out of the atmosphere of the nightmare kingdom as if fleeing, and flew towards his own nightmare space.

It was very difficult for Luffy to go back. Although his flying speed is not slow, it is still much slower than the specially transformed aircraft. This is not a big deal at first, but when I think of the hidden things in the nightmare kingdom The truth made him wish he could grow an engine for himself.

After two full hours, he finally returned to his nightmare space.

As soon as he entered his own nightmare space, Xing Tianyu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Only in this place with absolute control authority can he feel safe. To his surprise, Taozi has returned.

"Hey, why did you come back first?"

"Don't mention it, originally we were going to hunt another dream-eating squid, but we couldn't find it after searching for a long time, and then a few people left early, saying that we had to take exams and go to work tomorrow, and everyone else was also exhausted. A lot of mental energy, so we broke up in the end, wasting my time, but we made an appointment to act together next week."

After Taozi finished speaking, she suddenly thought of something again, "Oh, yes, I asked a few people for you, most of them have become Nightmare Lords in the past few years, the latest is about four or five years, and the latest is only a year many.",

Xing Tianyu nodded, expressing that he knew. In fact, the answer had already been determined.

Tao Zi asked, "By the way, why didn't you let me go to someone else's nightmare space?"

Xing Tianyu sighed, and despite his confusion, he patiently explained, "Nightmare space is a person's spiritual domain, if you are killed in a person's nightmare space, your mental power will become The nourishment of the other party, the killing technique in the dream is used to improve the mental power. Although everyone is a nightmare lord, this kind of thing has to be guarded against. Unless you are absolutely trustworthy, don’t go to other people’s nightmares. in space."

Tao Zi nodded, then shook her head again. "It's not that dangerous, isn't it? We were in the nightmare space of the Nightmare King before? Besides, the Nightmare King has an order not to allow the Nightmare Lords to kill each other. If they find out, they will be hunted down with a reward."

"Wait a minute, what are you talking about!?" Xing Tianyu called with his eyes wide open.

Tao Zi was taken aback, "I mean, isn't the Kingdom of Nightmare the nightmare space of the King of Nightmares?"

Xing Tianyu's mouth grew wide open, as if a flash of lightning flashed through his mind, Tao Zi's words woke him up completely, and at this moment, he fully understood what was going on.

Before, he always thought that the Nightmare Kingdom was a special existence in the Nightmare Universe, like the core of the Nightmare Universe, but now that he thought about it, wasn't the Nightmare Kingdom the nightmare space of the Nightmare King?It's just that the volume is extremely huge, which is completely beyond the scope of ordinary nightmare spaces, so that people subconsciously ignore that it is essentially just a nightmare space.

Then why is the nightmare space beyond this nightmare so huge?
The reason why the nightmare lord's nightmare space is larger than that of ordinary people is because he can increase his own nightmare space by absorbing other people's spiritual power, so what does the nightmare king rely on to increase his nightmare space to such a huge size?You must know that the higher the mental power, the less the improvement of people with low mental power will be absorbed. With such a large nightmare space outside of the nightmare, ordinary people may be of no value to him at all.

And the only thing that can provide nutrients is the spiritual power of the Nightmare Lord?
A group of Nightmare Lords will disappear collectively every ten years, and I am afraid that they have all become nourishment for the Nightmare King.

Obviously, the Nightmare King sent the Nightmare Fairies to canonize the Nightmare Lords, and then that guy named Merlin helped these Nightmare Lords improve their spiritual power and strength. After ten years, when the fruits matured, they would wipe out these Nightmare Lords, just like raising pigs generally.

The poor nightmare lords are completely unaware of this ending. The more he thinks about it, the more he feels that this is the case. Fear, anger, anxiety, and all kinds of negative emotions are stirring in his heart, making the entire nightmare space dark. up.

Thunder was rolling in the sky, as if a storm was about to hit.

"Senior, are you alright!" Tao Zi asked in horror.

Xing Tianyu glanced at Taozi with some confusion, he might have harmed this girl.

But fortunately, there are still two or three years before the Nightmare Kingdom will become the burial place of all Nightmare Lords. I still have time, and if the Nightmare King wants to absorb the Nightmare Lord's spiritual power, he should gather the Nightmare Lords first. Together, as A Song said before, the previous Nightmare Lords were summoned to attack the Dream-Eating Cancer. This summoning order is probably the bait for the Nightmare Lords to throw themselves into the trap.

As long as I never go to the Nightmare Land again, I will be safe. As for three years later, I will close the Nightmare Space by myself and never dream again.
