Soul echo

Chapter 419 Dream Invasion

Because Zhong Ye and the others were not in a hurry to investigate, they didn't select all the 'ten people' until night fell.

However, after most of the day's selection, everyone in the Adventurer's House knew Zhong Ye.

Under the publicity efforts of the players, not only the people in the Adventurer's House, but even ordinary people in Schaffhausen know who Zhong Ye is and what he has done.

This town is not big, with a population of only a few hundred. Even including the rural people who temporarily live in the town, the number does not exceed a thousand.

It is precisely because Schaffhausen is not big that Zhong Ye's reputation can spread so quickly.

Today, almost everyone in Schaffhausen knows that they have a 'hero' who is tracking down human trafficking chains.

The news of 'they are in action' was spreading at a speed that Zhong Ye had never expected. Although he planned to do so himself, the news spread so fast that he almost didn't react.

Before night fell, many people from Schaffhausen deliberately passed by the Adventurer's House, wanting to see what the legendary hero looked like.

Zhong Ye didn't know how much Paulino Baum's eyeliner was mixed in. If there were only a few, he might be able to tell whether there was hostility in his sight.

However, there are too many people now, and it is difficult for him to distinguish.

The existence of players brought too much uncertainty. Zhong Ye didn't take them into consideration when he made the plan before, which made him almost caught off guard by the plan he made.

But this is not a problem, the plan has not yet reached a critical moment, even if there are some accidents, it can be adjusted.

After night fell, Zhong Ye and the others had dinner at the Adventurer's House before returning to the church to rest.

After discussing the progress of the plan with several priests, Zhong Ye and the others returned to their respective rooms to rest and prepare for the arrival of a new day.

However, they only slept until midnight...

In the darkness, Zhong Ye suddenly opened his eyes.

He got up quickly and opened the window.

Atmospheric glow and cold wind poured into the room together, illuminating Zhong Ye's vision.

Zhong Ye picked up the straight knife placed beside the bed, and looked around the room.

If he found something, he could cut it with a single knife, but now, he found nothing, which is the scariest thing.

Squinting his eyes slightly, Zhong Ye stepped forward, walked straight to the door, and opened the door effortlessly.

The corridor outside the door was occupied by thick darkness, and there was nothing.

But he clearly felt the danger just now, and his body instinct directly dragged his consciousness out of the dream. If there was nothing, it would be even more strange.

It is impossible for his body to respond to it. Since he found nothing, it means that the 'attack' came from other levels, not the physical level.

"Spiritual attack? Or, other..."

Zhong Ye murmured in the dark on purpose, wanting to use his body as bait to lure out the 'that thing' hidden in the dark.

I don't know if that thing has already left, or if it has already found the target. In short, after waiting for a while, Zhong Ye didn't feel that there was anything else.

What it is?
Zhong Ye frowned slightly, looked at the surrounding decorations, and suddenly realized that this is a church, not a home for adventurers.

All evil things that try to invade will be sanctioned by divine power, so obviously, the 'sense of danger' that just appeared does not come from the physical level, nor does it come from the soul level.

That being the case, what happened to the sense of danger he felt just now?

Zhong Ye absolutely believed in his own feelings, and his feelings would not go wrong. Since he felt something threatening him just now, then that thing must exist, but he didn't know how that thing invaded. Just the church.

In any case, wake up Lily and the others first.

Zhong Ye walked out of his room and knocked on the door of the next room.

There are not many rooms in the church, so Pastor Igor arranged Lily and Lilian together, and they lived in the same room.

Zhong Ye stood outside the door and waited silently. Not long after, the door was suddenly opened, and Lily holding a light sword appeared behind the door, and Lilian was standing behind her holding an oil lamp.

But this Lilian is hosted by the system, and the real Lilian is probably asleep in another world.

"bell?"

Lily opened her squinted eyes, and the eyelids were pulled away by the eye secretions. The slight tingling made her realize the fresh indecentness, and she hurriedly turned her head and rubbed her eyes.

"Did you feel anything just now?"

Zhong Ye's question made Lili stop rubbing her eyes, and turned to look at Zhong Ye.

"I still want to ask why you knock on the door so late... What happened?"

Zhong Ye frowned, and then relaxed.

"No." He shook his head. "When I was sleeping just now, I suddenly felt a dangerous feeling, and I was awakened. I came here to see if you are all right, but I haven't found anything until now."

Lily's face tightened, and she looked around, "Isn't this a church?"

The church has a constant detection aura, and the general petty theft is ignored. If something particularly evil enters the church, the church will definitely respond.

From Zhong Ye's tone, the 'thing' that makes him feel dangerous is not on the physical level, otherwise he would have discovered it long ago.

It is impossible for Zhong Ye to have a sense of danger that is not evil, and as long as evil things enter the church, the church will sound an alarm.

So, what exactly is that thing?
Lily also realized the horror of 'that thing', looking at Zhong Ye, a thought suddenly appeared in her heart.

Immediately, a sentence blurted out: "Zhong, why don't we sleep in the same room?"

"Huh?" Zhong Ye frowned, this didn't seem like something Lily would say.

"No, I mean..." Lily blushed, and realized what she had just said, "Sleeping together... If you sleep in the same room, you can protect us better."

Zhong Ye was silent for a moment, then nodded in agreement: "Indeed."

After saying that, he went back to his room, put on his weapon, and then went back to the door of Lily and the others' room, greeted Lily, and then followed Lily and the others into the room.

The weapons of the two were placed on the sides of the two beds, which was their habit all along, so that they would not find their weapons if something happened at night.

As long as the weapon is placed by the bed, it can be quickly retrieved even without lighting the lamp.

Zhong Ye sat on the only chair in the room, folded his arms, straightened his back, and lowered his eyes.

"Go to sleep."

Before the light was turned off, Lily lay on her side on the bed and looked at Zhong Ye's side face with the help of the weak light. With a sound of "huh", Lilian blew out the light, but she found that Zhong Ye's face had been deeply imprinted on her. In my mind, I can't get rid of it.

That being the case, I hope you can have a good dream...

Lily and Lilian quickly fell asleep, but Zhong Ye couldn't fall asleep.

He was thinking about what made him feel dangerous just now.

Even after he let go of his perception, he couldn't find the existence of that thing.

It was night now, and there were very few factors that could cause interference. Except for the sound of the wind, there were almost no interference factors. Therefore, his perception was much stronger than during the day.

Even so, he didn't find 'the thing'.

How exactly did that thing invade the church...?

Zhong Ye suddenly opened his eyes, then closed them again, using the power of Oneiroi to quickly fall asleep.

Then, he diverted his attention and felt the presence of another dream in the room.

That was Lily's dreamland!
Zhong Ye let out a breath: "I'm sorry."

After saying that, he slammed into Lily's dream.

"Huh? Why is there... two of Zhong Ye?"
