Abnormal paradise

Two consecutive system prompts allowed Yu Ember to escape from the gate of hell. He was very lucky for this. The "Blood Vine Bracelet" that reached maturity in advance once again played a key role. Although he didn't know what he would encounter next. It was a difficult situation, but the intermittent state of fear that was supposed to be an obstacle lost its effectiveness, so that the return journey would undoubtedly be much easier.

After Ember's trance in the blink of an eye, he woke up and opened his eyes, and immediately saw the true appearance of Little Red Riding Hood - Little Red Riding Hood!

Yes, Little Red Riding Hood looks like a red hat cloak. Even though its outline is held up by an invisible presence, Ember cannot see other things at all, not even the incorporeal soul.

The glass of wine and Little Bob, who also ignored the fear effect, stepped forward and said in shock: "How... are you going to deliver the cake?"

Perhaps the word "cake" triggered the game mechanism. The red hat cloak suddenly lost its support and fell on the table, turning into a special prop that can be worn.

…

【little Red Riding Hood】

Type: Special Item

Function: Transformation

Introduction: In the Big Bad Wolf's nightmare, Little Red Riding Hood permanently becomes "Little Red Riding Hood".

"..."

After seeing Little Red Riding Hood's item information, Ember and the glass of wine turned to each other in confusion, and then couldn't help but recall the words of the gray-skinned werewolf -

"I can't let you come back backwards, can I?"

Perhaps he was trapped in the nightmare for too long. Instead of being driven crazy, this guy developed a bad taste. Not only did he immediately lose his combat ability after putting it on, but he also had to go back the whole way. This made Ember wonder. What is the significance of this approach?

With almost no controversy, as the glass of wine gets thicker, the little red riding hood is put on. The appearance does not change much, but the visual fusion of the little red riding hood and the burgundy cloak creates a more vivid blood red color, which makes the glass of wine look darker. Like a rose with thorns, its beauty is full of danger.

"Does it look good?"

As the glass of wine got thicker, he suddenly asked Ember, and then received the expected response. He curled his eyes, picked up the basket containing the cake with a smile, and tried to find the feeling of walking backwards.

"The speed can be maintained at this level at most, do you think it's okay?"

Since the aftermath of the battle just now was not over, Ling's glass of wine was getting thicker and he couldn't help but ask Yi Yan's opinion.

"Let's go out and check the situation first. If it doesn't work, just use matches."

Ember waved his hand, and then together with Little Bob, he protected the glass of wine that turned into Little Red Riding Hood.

At this stage, the nightmare challenge is no longer difficult at all. Even if there are blood vines constantly emerging in front and behind, trying to grab the incapable of resistance, the glass of wine is getting thicker, but for Ember and Little Bob who ignore the state of fear, It’s not a problem at all. Compared to the pressure of death at the beginning of the challenge, it’s as relaxing and enjoyable as an outing.

The reason for this situation is not only that the nightmare challenge in the second half is specially designed for the Giant Tree Research Institute, but also that if this nightmare challenge is compared to an exam question with an average difficulty of 100 points, The three of them have already finished half of the paper with a difficulty of 200 points. The remaining half may have a difficulty level of 100 points for the Giant Tree Research Institute, but it only has a difficulty level of 10 points for Yu Yan and others. point.

Therefore, this journey was very relaxed and enjoyable.

Seeing the end in sight, little Bob finally came out of the haze, with a rare smile on his face: "My father is right, compared to that nightmare, this challenge is really like a fairy tale!"

"Can I know more details?" Yi Yan knocked down a blood vine casually and asked without looking back. One thing he said was that the average difficulty of this nightmare challenge was far higher than that of the Corpse Nest battle, so he was very worried. I am curious about what happened to Little Bob and the others.

"The rules of that nightmare challenge are that everyone pretends to be fairy tale characters and kills each other. We don't even have the power not to do anything, because no one, including the gardener, can control their actions." Little Bob Jing Quietly recounting his experience, he was finally able to face that nightmare head-on.

"Our exploration team cannot compare with the big chaebols of the Giant Tree Research Institute, and can only absorb people we know well, so among us there are brothers, husbands and wives, fathers and sons, lovers, friends, comrades... But in that nightmare, we They all turned into enemies, even if they wanted to commit suicide, everyone had to kill each and every familiar person. That scene was really a nightmare."

Little Bob's experience made Yi Yan frown. Such a nightmare could indeed be called a nightmare.

Fortunately, his strength is far inferior to that of the Gardener, and his real level is even worse than Little Bob. Otherwise, he might really be destroyed here.

And this also made Ember more curious, how did that nightmare end?

"Gardener!" Little Bob did not shy away from this name. "At first, he could not control his actions, but when he found out that the next target was me, he began to fight against the nightmare, because it was me and my father. , rescued him from a coma."

"Resist?"

This time, she was having a glass of wine and became confused. She walked backwards and asked: "Aren't you already under control? How can you resist?"

"Later I found out that it was the blood vine that controlled our bodies. Therefore, what the gardener did at that time was to completely destroy the foundation of the nightmare. He understood that his blood had a fatal influence on the blood vine, so he let go of all his defenses and let go The blood vines entered his body." Little Bob paused, adjusted his emotions, and continued, "Right in front of me, the gardener seemed to turn into a black hole, swallowing up endless blood vines, which directly caused the nightmare to end prematurely. .”

Little Bob's narration made the embers and the glass of wine grow thicker, and at the same time they remembered the scene when they faced the gardener symbiote. When the opponent launches a sudden punch, his right arm will be completely covered by numerous blood vines. Only then do the two of them understand that this is how the blood vines integrated into the gardener's body came from!

"At that time, I still remember the masked man. I was very surprised and told the gardener that he should have appeared earlier."

There was a look of contemplation in Little Bob's eyes: "At that time, I was seriously injured and didn't pay attention. It wasn't until I saw my father's notes and came into contact with the Nightmare Pumpkin Car again that I understood the meaning of that sentence. The blood of the gardener should be able to It will be of some help to those fairy tale characters heading to the inner city. If the gardener had appeared earlier, their actions might not have failed, otherwise the masked man would not have expressed his stance like this."

"good."

Ember nodded slightly. The further he got to this point, the more he felt that the gardener had an extremely powerful presence, and the existence of the gardener was related to Little Bob's hidden mission. It seemed that as long as he went all the way, he would have to collide with the gardener sooner or later. !

During the conversation, the three of them arrived at their destination calmly. Without leaving the door, the gray-skinned werewolf pretending to be Lao Nai jumped out with a gloomy look on his face. His green wolf eyes scanned the crowd, very unwilling to do so. Declare the challenge is over.

"You are lucky. You saved your life by chance. You won't have such a good thing next time!"

[Tip: If you successfully pass the nightmare challenge, you can get a certain bonus when the game is settled. 】

[Tip: You can choose two of the following three options as rewards for the nightmare challenge. 】

…

"1. The character level is increased to eight + 3,200 foundation credit points. (Basic option)"

"2. [Tough Blood Vine Product] (mature stage) + [Tough Blood Vine Core] (mature stage). (Normal option)"

"3. [Totem Engraving·Wolf Claw] (enhancement effect): Free equipment enhancement for your [Dire Wolf Gloves], regardless of the number limit, and the basic damage is increased by 100%. (Rare option)"

…

"Originally, you were quite appealing to me, but now I don't like you. Please finish your selection and get out of here!"

The annoyed tone of the gray-skinned werewolf made Ember laugh. After seeing the reward options, he made a choice without hesitation, ignoring the contribution and credit points, and directly took the blood vine accessories that were more helpful for the current assessment, plus the A totem enhancement that is hard to come by.

This rare reward option is simply tailor-made for him. The original gray Dire Wolf glove now has a scarlet pattern on the back of the hand. It looks very cool, and the basic damage value suddenly increases. The upgrade to eighteen points is comparable to the enhanced rechargeable telescopic stick that stimulates energy storage. It also extends the service life of the Dire Wolf Gloves a lot.

At the same time, Drunk and Little Bob also received their respective rewards. Their combat performance was slightly inferior to that of Ember, so the rewards were also reduced.

As the glass of wine got thicker and she could only choose one of the two, she also gave up the contribution points and credit points, and chose to strengthen the equipment that was more helpful for survival, so that her cloak and leather armor received the skill blessing of "Little Red Riding Hood", which can inspire The "Little Red Riding Hood" with a defense level plus one can withstand up to three injuries in a short period of time, greatly increasing its survivability.

As for Little Bob, who is a game character, he has an extra bottle of [Basic-Level Perception Potion] in his hand, which can temporarily enhance his perception. He did not hide his gains, and at the same time, he also informed Yi Ember of a secret buried deep in his heart. and a glass of wine getting thicker.

"I'm sorry, but there is actually one thing that I have been hiding from you..."
