Skilled Pikemen Don't Leash

After the other party said these words, Yi Guang immediately had an ominous premonition in his heart.Although the opposite was an old man in a wheelchair, with a gray beard, and even a broken leg and a hand with prosthetics, he looked like he was half buried in the ground.However, Yi Guang is not an idiot, and the saying "A person cannot be judged by his appearance, and the sea cannot be measured" is not for nothing.

It is obviously impossible for the other party to appear here and now.Even, his appearance at the moment is probably just a disguise.Inside, who knows what it is... A beautiful young lady pretending to be Dr. Usefka can turn into that kind of tentacle monster, and it won't be surprising that this old man suddenly turns into Yi Guang, a Baltan star.

"Damn, you broken system! Now when you are needed, where are you going to die?!"

As a rookie who hasn't been strengthened much, Yi Guang certainly doesn't have the courage to face this person.The only thing he can do now is to call out to the system master very hard in his heart.

"Oh, young man, you seem to be very nervous." The old man's eyes softened again, "Don't be afraid, as I said, I am not a threat to you. I just have some things, I want to talk to you, you don't want to Do you want to chat casually with me, an old man who stays here all year round?"

Really just casual chat?Does the chat need to open the system?

Yi Guang frowned. He was not a three-year-old child, nor was he a goddess of blue water with below-average intelligence.

"Although I would like to chat with you, but now is really not the time." Yi Guang thought for a while, and then boldly said to the old man, "I still have a lot of things to do, and I hope to be able to leave."

"Leave? That's not okay. It took me a lot of effort to pull you into this place. If you leave now, I will be very troubled." The old man rejected Yi Guang as a matter of course, "I hope, You can join me."

"Huh? Join... your side?"

Yi Guang was a little surprised. He originally thought that the other party was going to be unfavorable to him, but he didn't expect it to unfold like this.He wished himself, to join his side?

"why?"

"Because we need more power, which can break the current, balanced power." The old man sighed quietly, "Compared with other great gods, we hunters currently have too few resources. And you, And the superior person behind you... Although we don't know exactly what kind of existence it is. But there is no doubt that it has the power to invade dreams, and it must be one of the great gods."

Yi Guang frowned, the amount of information contained in the old man's words was a bit too big for him to understand.He seems to regard himself, and the system behind him, as some powerful existence in his cognition... He calls it a "great god"?Well, the system did tell itself that there are some extraordinary beings hiding behind the scenes in this world.And this world seems to have a great connection with the tentacle monsters in the "Cthulhu Myth".

"So, what can I do?" Although he couldn't understand, in order to obtain more useful information, Yi Guang asked curiously, "You have spent so much effort to get me out of my Pull away from my partner and teleport to this dream. However, I am just an ordinary person. I am not a powerful existence without my partner. It is useless for you to find me."

"It's very simple, you are the chosen one of the superior, and you have his mark on your body. As long as you accept the 'Dark Blood', you can become a real hunter, and at the same time, we and the superior Bridge." The old man revealed his purpose to Yi Guang, "In this way, our covenant will be fulfilled, you can get the blessings of the two great gods at the same time, and we can get new knowledge, wisdom enough to break the current balance .Yarnan's treasure, this hunter's dream, will be opened for you. Isn't it great?"

"Yes, it sounds really good..." Yi Guang nodded, "But I refuse."

"what?!"

The old man thinks that this hunter's dreamland is his home field, in terms of the timidity that Yi Guang showed before.He could make the other party obedient, but he never expected that Yi Guang would give an unexpected answer.

"Your offer is good, but I refuse." Yi Guang repeated his answer again, "If this is really a win-win proposal, why are you so sneaky and painstakingly dragged me to this strange place? Talking in the world? If it is a proposal that is beneficial to us, we can put him on the surface and say it."

Yi Guang, you can say that this person is timid, or you can say that he doesn't think too much about anything.But correspondingly, his shortcomings that make people catch chickens also illustrate a point about him.That is cautious, and somewhat suspicious.

When the old man had just negotiated with him, by the way, in his mind, he recalled all the things that had happened so far since he came to this world.

Hunters can be resurrected continuously by carrying lanterns, which are the tentacles of dreams...

The system dissuaded him and warned him not to receive blood therapy, not to drink the blood in the blood collection bottle...

Blood Echo, the system must be purified before it can be strengthened...

The wandering monsters in Yanan City, Yanan's reputation as the "hometown of blood therapy"...

After being seriously injured by him, the nun who pretended to be Dr. Usefka mutated into a tentacle monster...

……

"I'm afraid, after I accept your so-called 'dark blood' and sign that contract, I will also become a part of this dream, and become a slave to the existence behind you, right?" Yi Guang narrowed his eyes and looked in front of him. The old man said, "The hunters can continue to be resurrected through the lanterns extended by this dream, and it is also because they have assimilated with this dream the moment they accepted the so-called 'dark blood' and became your puppets. Then they are constantly absorbing 'Blood Echo', in the process of drinking the blood collection bottle, this assimilation process will continue to deepen, and in the end it will be impossible to escape."

That's right, although there are many things that I don't understand, at least, Yi Guang thinks that the direct connection between "Hunter", "Echo of Blood", and "Hunter's Dreamland" is very clear.

"Like yourself... Am I right, old man?"

"Ah, so the negotiation broke down?" The old man moved slightly, "It's a good thing that young people are smart, but sometimes they should be confused. At least I think, if it's the superior person behind you... …He may choose a more diplomatic approach."

"That's not necessarily..." Yi Guang placed the spear in his hand across his chest.

Of course, it is impossible for him to fight foolishly with the other party.He was still shouting desperately to the system in his heart. At this time, the only thing that could save him was the system.

And the reason why he dared to stand in front of this old man was that he could still be so strong on the opponent's territory.Naturally, it was also the confidence given to him by the system. He had just received a reply from the system.

[Give me a moment to hold him back, I'll be right there! 】

"The way you hold the weapon is too immature. If you think you can fight an old hunter with this level... I don't think this is a good choice." Looking at Yi Guang's weapon, the old man, or Said the old hunter shook his head, "Young man, do you really not think about it anymore?"

"If possible, I don't want to be an enemy of an old man. After all, I should understand the principle of respecting the old and loving the young." Yi Guang smiled bitterly, "But your opinion is really embarrassing... I don't want myself Become something that makes you sick."

"Not all hunters will become monsters... We can cooperate, those monsters in Yanan Town and the surrounding areas. Those are the targets we want to hunt, and you can't become partners with them Don't you?" The old hunter smiled, "Don't let yourself regret it, young man."

"However, this does not mean that I have to vote for you." Yi Guang shook his head, and then looked around, "Although your aesthetics... this place is really good, much better than those monsters."

"Then why don't you stay?" The old hunter began a new round of persuasion, "You can treat this place as your own home, and everything here can be yours. Including, the puppet outside."

When talking about "that doll", the old man's expression suddenly became obscene.Like a nerd talking to himself about blow-up dolls or erotica.

Although that doll is indeed beautiful, it shouldn't be so frenzied as to flirt with her, right? !

Old gentleman... Yi Guang suddenly changed his mind about the old hunter in front of him, he didn't expect you to be such an old man!

However, when Yi Guang came back to his senses again, there was already a figure beside the old Buxiu... This surprised Yi Guang.

There is no other reason, the figure standing quietly beside the old hunter is the puppet who sat down on the side of the road before.She actually moved!And also made a very elegant lady's gift to Yi Guang!

"This..." Yi Guang was surprised and speechless for a moment, and the things in his mind before became muddled.After all, this scene is a bit surprising.

But soon, something that surprised Yi Guang even more happened.Even the old hunter, who had always maintained a confident attitude and thought he had the chance to win, was stunned by the next scene!

"Boom boom boom boom!!!!"

The peaceful and picturesque hunter's dream suddenly changed drastically, and countless thunder and lightning intertwined right above the chapel, making deafening noises.At the same time, thick clouds obscured the dream sky, forming a huge void above the chapel!

A beam of seven-color light shot out from the hollow, and the powerful force tore apart the roof of the chapel in an instant.Then, that ray of light descended from the sky, covering Yi Guang's body, carrying his body, and flying towards the hole in the sky!

Needless to say, these seven colors of light will help Yi Guang, it is undoubtedly the system!

"Is this, declaring war on that great god?" The old hunter looked at the small church with its roof lifted, and the sudden seven-color light.He sighed faintly, "It's useless, this is the dream of the Great God, and no one can defy it in this dream."

As if to verify the old man's words, the huge full moon in the dream turned from white to red in the next instant.The originally hazy dream garden seemed to be stained with blood in an instant!

And in the center of the crimson full moon, a distorted and slender figure began to emerge.What followed was a chill that penetrated Yi Guang's bones.And, the pain of being suddenly held tightly in my heart!

Not cold in the physical sense, but some kind of spiritual fear.There is no reason, no cause and effect, it's just the kind of unreasonable fear that arises spontaneously when the lower races see the upper predators that are far beyond them.

This inexplicable fear turned into a bone-deep coldness, and Yi Guang just saw its vague shadow, which was enough to make Yi Guang, an ordinary human being, fall into a vortex of fear and despair.

[Hey, the Lord is here...Host, hurry up, we're going to speed up! 】

Chapter 19 Blood Princess of the Moon, Defense System

As the strange red moonlight became brighter in the dream, the distorted figure on the moon became more and more clear.In the end, the real body of the shadow on the moon was finally fully revealed in front of Yi Guang.

"what is this……"

It was a tall creature about seven or eight meters long, and its whole body was dark red.It has a human-like head and limbs, but its overly slender body makes it feel like the trunk of a tree.

But the most impressive thing about it is that it has countless octopus-like tentacles growing all over its body.These tentacles are like long hairs, swaying with the flight of its body and the swing of its limbs. Matching its slender figure, it makes people feel a strange beauty.

It's obviously just an ugly monster, but people can't help being intoxicated by it.It is obviously a twisted evil beast, but it makes people feel a certain kind of lofty and sacred aura.The moment Yi Guang saw him, he even had the urge to worship him!

However, even Yi Guang himself is not sure where this impulse comes from.

[Don't be confused by it, otherwise you really won't be able to get out of this dream.Don't worry, you have my protection, its spiritual realm basically has no effect on you, you only need to concentrate on resisting it, and you can break its charm! 】

"What is this?!" After hearing the system's words, Yi Guang immediately concentrated his mind and was no longer confused by the other party, but out of curiosity, he still couldn't help asking, "This is what the old man said, my god? "

【Yes, this is the creator of this dream, and one of the powerful creatures in this world known as the 'Old God'.The elf of the moon, the blood princess of the moon. 】

"Then are we going to fight it?" Yi Guang looked at the approaching creature and said with some fear, "Can we beat it?"

[The opponent's evaluation is an A+ grade divine creature. With your level as the host, let alone fighting it, without the protection of this beam of light, you will be captured by its spiritual stance just the moment you see the opponent's figure. Be its slave.And I don't have direct combat power... well, that's the general situation, the host can figure it out. 】

"Damn it, isn't that the end?!" Yi Guang turned pale with shock, "If you get killed by this guy, you probably won't be able to resurrect...Ahhh!!!"

Before Yi Guang finished speaking, there was a piercing scream, and the moon elves that appeared from the red moon had already launched an attack on them.The bright red moonlight, under the opponent's control, hit the surface of the seven-color beam of light like a storm like a saturated bombardment!

At the same time, as "Blood Princess of the Moon" waved the part that he didn't know whether to call it "arm" or "forelimb", a huge scarlet translucent tentacle appeared in the void, surrounding Yi Guang from the outside. where the beam of light is located.

The impact of the moonlight, the tight entanglement of the tentacles... the two offensives together formed a huge pressure.Under the impact of the huge tentacles and the ubiquitous moonlight, the seven-color beam of light appeared so small and fragile.The old chimney, which seems to be crumbling in a storm, is in danger of being broken by the surrounding storm at any time.

Not only that, in Yi Guang's observation field of view, the beam of light he was in, besides being subjected to two waves of physical damage, was still being corroded by certain things from time to time.The red moonlight outside seemed to be corrosive. Under the moonlight, the seven-color light beam constructed by the system unexpectedly emitted strange smoke.

"Hey, hey, can you do it?!" Yi Guang said that he was very generous, whether it was the smoke, the whipping of the big tentacles, or the scarlet light cannon that fell like rain, Yi Guang had a good time. A delusion that he could be finished at any time.

【You have nothing to do but trust me now... Tsk tsk, I didn't expect the Blood Princess of the Moon to be so stingy this time, so we just borrowed a little bit of her strength, as for it? 】

"So, whether it's the resurrection ability or the 'Echo of Blood', you got it from this tentacle monster without warning?" , of course he guessed what was going on.

【This world... No, it should be said that Yanan and a large area around it were actually replaced by the dreams of these guys called 'gods'.This is a special space created by them, and only in this special space will there be scenes of hunters and monsters constantly being resurrected. 】The system thought for a while, and told Yi Guang the truth.

"So, in fact, we have already been in this guy's territory just after we came to this world?" Yi Guang understood the meaning of the system, "From the very beginning, you have expected to confront this guy, yes Bar?"

【Of course, the hunter's resurrection depends on its power. Your resurrection is the result of my imitation of its power.From the beginning, we were thieves... It's just that we two thieves were discovered a little early! 】

"Then what should we do now?!" Yi Guang said with a broken face, "Since you have already thought about today's result, then come up with a countermeasure!"

[About this, all I can think of is to run away.But obviously, the power of this Blood Princess of the Moon is stronger than I imagined... In its moonlight domain, my teleportation seems to have slowed down. 】

After the system said this, Yi Guang realized that something was wrong around him.The seven-color beam of light that originally pulled him to fly quickly into the hollow in the sky seemed to be slowing down.Or more accurately, almost stagnated!

"It's over——!!!" After realizing this fact, Yi Guang couldn't help but wailed while hugging his head.

And it seemed that in response to his wailing, the huge tentacles outside also launched a fierce attack at this time that made the entire beam of light tremble.The huge force caused Yi Guang, who was in the beam of light, to be thrown to the wall of light on the other side!

"Ah, it hurts——!!!"

Yi Guang supported his head, which had been hit hard, and barely stood up.But he immediately discovered the fact that made him even more desperate.

Under the erosion of the scarlet strange moonlight, the beam of light constructed by the system finally showed unstable fluctuations.The outer wall of the beam of light was visibly dimmed, and there were even distortions and fluctuations like when the old-fashioned wireless TV signal reception was unstable!

"What did I say... Sure enough, as a spear soldier, you can't expect to complete the mission safely! You are really going to die!"

Yi Guang was really desperate this time, he didn't think he would have a chance to be resurrected after dying this time.After all, the system also said that Yi Guang was able to revive continuously before, but in fact, the system stole part of the power of the blood princess of the moon to complete it.But now, the true masters of the people have appeared, and it would be strange if the stolen power could be used.

【Ah, is it really the worst development...】

But at this time, the system let out a sigh of resignation in Yi Guang's mind.But Yiguang feels that this kind of resignation is not complete despair, but the kind that is common in anime works, when the protagonist is forced to use the hole card he least wants to use, he sighs "Why are you forcing me?"

"Hey, hey, if you say that, it means there is still a chance?"

[Of course there is a chance, it depends on whether you are willing or not.As I said, we treat newcomers well. After all, if the host dies, our systems will be very troublesome.So, in fact, at the very end, there is a 'protection measure for newcomers'.However, there is no free lunch in the world, you need to think about it. 】

"Do you even need to think about it?!" Yi Guang roared, "If you think about it again, we're going to die here!!!"

[Do you want to activate the newcomer protection mechanism? Y/N】

Suddenly, a panel appeared in front of Yi Guang, with such a question written on it, followed by two options.At the same time, the voice of the system also appeared in his mind.

【Listen well, this counterattack mechanism is enough for us to escape from this dream.But relatively, using this mechanism will cost us both.I will be temporarily paralyzed and will not be able to provide you with any logistical services until this mission is over.In other words, you have to face the next task alone!Moreover, the difficulty of this task may become greater. 】
