Fantasy Clock～Dream Ruler～

"I won't 'kill' you right now. I just want to ask you to pay back a few debts."

The cold muzzle of the gun touched his left shoulder, and sparks exploded with a bang. The dream thief made a sound from deep in his throat, and stared fiercely at William, but before he could get used to the severe pain, a cold touch ran across his upper arm, and the gun was aimed at his elbow again, and the gunshot fired again, Bloomed a piece of blood red.

"This is to thank you for what you did to me in the arena of imprisonment."

As soon as the words fell, there was a strong impact on the side of the cheek, and the front end of the pistol slammed into the side of the Dream King's side face, but William didn't shoot in the cheek.

"Ah, I'm sorry, it's not convenient to punch with a gun. Just treat this as my substitute and return your punch."

William deliberately slowed down the hostility in his tone, but the words he said in a soft voice seemed quite provocative. He pressed the muzzle of the gun against the wounded side face of the King of Pirates, and moved his face closer to the King of Pirates. Slowly pressed against his chest.

"There are still two bills I can't ask you for right now. But the two guns will be returned to you for Chalt and Baitu Mei. You should remember it well."

The moment William pronounced the name "Bai Tu Mei", the Thief King's eyes trembled suddenly, and his thoughts followed the name, as if he could go back to the past.

The expression of the Thief Dream King made William a little annoyed, but he still tried his best to restrain his emotions, at least not for now.

William didn't notice that another person also had a nostalgic look in his eyes when he heard the name, and his eyes fell on him again.

At this time, the minute hand of the clock trembled suddenly, and accelerated clockwise to fifty minutes, and the hour and minute hands overlapped at the position pointing to 10. This sudden abnormality caused William's attention to briefly slip to the ruler clock behind him, and Arquette's vision immediately trembled.

"It's... again... the unrecognizable control ability of the "Fire Eye". It appeared in a place other than the dreamland..."

Arquette's eyes followed the pointer to the 10 position, and countless sharp screams rang out without warning in the direction that could be seen. Countless black shadows were printed on the blood-red sky, and the screams came and went. The overlapping sounds seemed to come from the soul the depths.

"How is this going?"

Unexpectedly, the evil spirits that hadn't appeared for several days would appear at this time. Alket's erratic and trembling gaze inadvertently landed on the leaflets floating in the air. The reward notice for hunting evil spirits.

At this moment, whether it is the Dream Stealer or the ruler of the "Temporary Alliance", all eyes are attracted by the evil spirits fluttering in the sky.

Only Thief Dream King and William are still in the original situation.

Thief Dream King traced back his thoughts in the past, as if telling an irrefutable fact, he said in a flat tone:

"At that time, Mei's gun was aimed at the cheek and chest."

"..."

"She lost, and you will end up in the same way."

"No, it's not the same, because you have no way to reverse the situation now."

William listened to it nonchalantly and was about to forget it, but the King of Pirates of Dreams showed an intriguing smile.

"I've been thinking for a long time, why did I end up attacking Baitu Mei... Now I finally understand."

The Thief King raised the corners of his mouth, and his eyes seemed to be looking directly at William, but William felt that he was looking past him and looking at someone behind him.

"Hey, speak clearly!..."

William was just about to ask what was the meaning of his words, but the sharp pain from behind interrupted his words without warning, and the anxious reminder came slowly.

"William! Watch out!"

Affected by this violent jolt, William leaned forward, and the pistol clenched in his right hand also brushed Thief King's cheek and moved towards his temple. Although the muzzle of the gun was still aiming at the dead spot, the King of Pirates of Dreams clearly noticed the momentary shaking of his finger tightening the trigger.

As if he had found the perfect timing, the Dream Thief bent his knees and slammed into William's abdomen. As he expected, William would never easily pull the trigger to send him off, because he would be reborn in the future four hours later, which would not achieve William's goal. Take full advantage of this and turn it to your advantage.

William quickly leaned forward, tumbling for a week and stood up, and while quickly turning around, he raised his gun and pointed it at the people behind him. It's just that the King of Pirates of Dreams also took advantage of the momentary gap and took out a pistol and pointed it at himself. Dozens of evil spirits behind the two of them are getting closer to them.

"You really didn't shoot. William, you will regret your hesitation just now."

The King of Pirates of Dreams was shot in the right shoulder, and his arm was hanging down weakly, but his fingers on his left arm were tense, ready to shoot at any time.

"Why? Even if I let you escape once, I guarantee that you will fall into the same situation again soon."

Although his tone remained sharp, William felt that he had disconnected from Arquette.

The evil spirit was close to the back, and the two had no choice but to close the distance to each other. At the same time, they launched an offensive towards each other, dragging each other to change positions, sticking to each other's backs and shooting at the evil spirit in front of them, and then turned around and returned to the original place. The positions are aimed at each other.

"Because, now is my ruler's time!"

A lightning-like red flame suddenly flashed in the pupils of the King of Pirates of Dreams. The ancient clock in his eyes turned to ten o'clock. He took the initiative to shorten the distance between William and him. There was a flash of astonishment in his eyes, and he also saw the small movement of his left foot taking a step back.

"I can see everything about you clearly now!"

While laughing loudly and presumptuously, while sensitively avoiding the direction where the opponent's gun was aiming, he crushed William's desire to distance himself, and met his face in a short two seconds. The dazzling sparks exploded from the distance, also at the position of the right shoulder.

William, who was standing on the edge, clenched his teeth, and the pistol in his left hand lost his grip and fell, disappearing from sight.

It feels very uncomfortable to be dominated by the absolute observation of the Thief Dream King, but at least William's thinking is still at the limit of calmness. Instead of shooting himself in the chest or head, he chose the delicate location of his left shoulder. It means that the other party doesn't want to kill him symbolically, and give himself a chance to be reborn four hours later.

"You're also planning a plan to kill me completely, aren't you..."

William said as if talking to himself, covered the wound on his left shoulder and took another step back. Knowing that there should be no gap left, he raised his right hand and clenched the handle of the gun, while predicting the next move of the Thief King, waiting for an opportunity Find his position, while staying on guard against the evil spirits behind.

"My confidant rulers! Your performance really disappoints me." The hoarse and arrogant voice that everyone is familiar with, resounded through the cracks of this dream again after a month, "Before you There were 5 domination wars, and it ended as early as 10:50 on the 35th day!"

The clock belonging to the observer, the dream madman wearing a clown mask spreads his arms wantonly, as if bathed in the light of a spotlight on the stage, his body is bent back at ninety degrees, and the only eyes exposed on his face are full of tears. Offensive colors.

"From now on, all town resources will be used by you! This is a gift I brought to you, a 'catalyst' to speed up this domination war. Ah, don't thank me. Please be sure and enjoy it."

The screams in the town intensified, and countless black shadows continued to rise into the blood-red sky.

William tried his best to glance behind him. The Dream Thief and his teammates were scattered to different places due to the impact of the evil spirit's expansion. s position.

＊＊＊

No matter which clock it is, it is now a mess. The young man who didn't know the situation came out from behind a world door that suddenly appeared on the No. 2 clock, and couldn't help but be dumbfounded when he saw the nearby scenery. Black crumbs fluttered in the air, and mournful sounds came and went.

[Didn't you say to stay here to ambush the Dream Thief? How could it be like this? 】

Although he didn't know what the situation was, Chalt immediately covered his mouth instinctively, not daring to make a sound. He walked to the edge of the clock and looked around, and caught a glimpse of a suspected William from a distance. But before he could see it clearly, he felt a push from behind, pushing himself down.

Chaalte raised his elbow vigilantly, but saw that it was Lin Yu who pulled him down. He put his index finger to his mouth and hissed forcefully.

Lin Yu scratched the back of his head irritably, and asked in a low voice:

"Why did you come here?"

"The number of people in charge over there is now six people. I used too much control ability just now, so I can't help much, so let's take a look at the situation here..." Chatter paused for a while before confirming the situation nearby. After seeing the situation, he asked, "I still want to ask you what's going on here? Where's the tea cat?"

"It may be that the game has timed out... the madman of the dream has exceeded the expected end of the domination war, the madman announced something to us, and released all the evil spirits... You also know that the evil spirits are the incarnations of the townspeople , and the tea cat has a good relationship with those townspeople, so I let her go back first."

"Hey, I didn't go back~"

The tea cat's soft voice rang in Lin Yu's ears. Unprepared, Lin Yu quickly took a step back and was relieved to see that it was the tea cat.

However, a complaining expression soon appeared on his face.

"Didn't I tell you to go back first?"

"Well, I'm fine... I can clearly distinguish the difference between evil spirits and townspeople, you think I'm a three-year-old child!"

The tea cat pursed his mouth in a rare way, showing an angry look.

"According to common sense, your psychological age is clearly a three-year-old child! Forget it..." Lin Yu actually knew that the tea cat was worried and just wanted to be with him. He simply compromised with this tea cat's gentleness, and turned back Chart, "Your father is in trouble now, we must ask Arquette for help."

"What my dad. I can't understand what you're talking about." Charte immediately looked away, as if in sync with his own desire to separate himself from William.

"Hey, now is not the time to lose your temper!" Lin Yu swallowed, and said seriously, "Listen, I'm going to find Arquette with the tea cat now, he's been dragged, and you can just follow your The dream maker is going to help other people...such as Elus...in short, help them get rid of those evil spirits, understand?"

Unexpectedly, Lin Yu suddenly mentioned Elus' name again, Chalt felt an inexplicable discomfort, his pupils moved up and down to look at Lin Yu.

"Why did you mention her name! You bastard... Did you secretly read my heart!?"

"I'm not interested in reading the mind of a kid like you. After all, I've been a teacher for so many years. There are some things that I can tell at a glance. I won't say much."

Lin Yu patted Chart on the shoulder, met the eyes of the tea cat, jumped off the clock, and jumped into the dense crowd of evil spirits.

"Damn, even if you say that, I don't know how to help..."

Chalt gritted his teeth and couldn't find Elus' figure, but he kicked his feet a little harder, and bravely broke into the gathered evil spirits.

Noticing the new prey, the evil spirits rushed towards Charte, their pale hands clasped towards Charte's shoulders.

"Jack...come out and help."

A black top hat stopped in front of Chart, and the top hat rushed towards the flailing evil spirit, and when it touched the evil spirit, a strange force was generated, pushing the opponent ten meters away. Immediately, a figure appeared with the top hat lowered, and Jack raised his legs and turned sideways to drive away the nearby evil spirits, making a hard way.

Chart immediately grabbed the gap of the evil spirits and squeezed towards the place where the light was shining. The evil spirits stretched out their bloody hands in his direction, but Jack deftly kicked them five or six meters away. Turning back and forth in the middle, it is as easy as dancing.

"Your opponent is me, don't be distracted and focus on other directions."

From the bottom of his heart, Chalt felt relieved by Jack's existence, and he rushed in along the direction of the light, and he saw Elus' figure.

"Elus, you are really here..."

She is too petite, and it is almost impossible to find Elus in the dense crowd, but Charter knows that Elus' magic will always create a light that attracts attention, so he follows the faint light in the distance. Light found it. In the end, Elus was indeed here.

"Charter? Why are you here?"

The tone of Elus' reply seemed a little weak, which was obviously a sign of excessive use of magic power. It was too late to ask Chaltre a few more questions, and the driven evil spirits surrounded the two of them again. Elus turned the wand and placed it in front of her. Just as she was about to squeeze out the magic power, the explosion hit her The evil spirit on the right blasted a path of blood.

"Let's go..."

Charte was pulled out of the siege by Elus, he suppressed the idea of ​​holding hands with Elus for a short time, and put his mind on the right track.

Hearing the gentle whistling sound of someone nearby, and smelling the strange candy-like sweet smell emitted by the explosion, Chart felt inexplicably familiar, so he couldn't help but glanced at the source of the sound, and saw Chen Xue's At this time, he couldn't help feeling a chill down his back.

Chen Xue seemed to be busy controlling the candies in the air, and didn't notice that Chart was looking at him vigilantly.

Just as Chart was thinking about using the evil spirit to get rid of her, Elus gently tugged on his sleeve, as if knowing what he was thinking, and shook her head.

"No. I can't explain it right now, but she's friendly for now."

Chart nodded his head knowingly, and Jack also rushed over at this time, waving his top hat to drive away the evil spirits, while bowing respectfully.

"We have to find a way to land. I can't call out the world gate in the sky. Well, Chart, you let Jack drive away the evil spirits in front of me, and delay as long as possible. I need time to gather magic power to make a "big" Sweep."

Elus adjusted her shortness of breath and looked seriously into Chalt's eyes. Chalt hurriedly looked away and looked at the joking Jack.

"I understand Miss Elus's instructions, and I will definitely do my best to block these evil spirits for you."

Jack immediately put away his provocative smile and replied seriously.

Chart raised his eyebrows, always feeling that Jack still looked at him with some evil intentions.

"Aren't Xiao Lulu and Xue Xueer here?"

Elus frowned lightly, giving Chartre a weird idea of ​​gently smoothing her brows.

"Well... when the evil spirits surged up, we were scattered." At this point, Elusi noticed that Chen Xue had also retreated to her side, leaving Xu Xue on the opposite side. She said to Chen Xue, "Charter and Jack, you are in charge of the front half... As for the back, I will leave it to Chen Xue!"

"Oh, leave it to me~"

She changed into the posture of holding the scepter with both hands, facing the evil spirits rushing in all directions in front of her, silently counting and waiting for the most extreme distance, and gradually condensed her little magic power. Chalt, who has no combat-type dominance ability, can only do his best to repel the evil spirits approaching in front of Elus together with Jack.

Although Chart tacitly agreed that Elus would leave her behind to Chen Xue's proposal, he still deliberately paid attention to whether she had any strange behaviors.

When Chart and the others persisted to the point where they could no longer hold on, the evil spirit rushing to the front raised its hand towards Elus's head, almost knocking off her pointed hat, and she finally released her. magic. The front of the staff flashed with light, as if it had condensed an extremely large amount of light, which was very dazzling.

Elus's red eyes widened impressively, flashing a brilliant look.

"Finale Flame——!"

A flash of light flashed across the sky, and the light of the staff pointed straight into the distance, covering half of the evil spirits.

The lingering blast shook the surrounding air, and under the dazzling firelight, black shadows swayed and distorted and disappeared towards the other side of the light, scattered into isolated lines and dots. The power of the explosion lasted for a full six or seven seconds, and when the smoke and dust from the explosion subsided, there was no trace of an evil spirit that was thirty meters away from the front.

The aftermath of the loud noise caused by the explosion disappeared little by little, and the front with a wide field of vision was unusually quiet. Chart and Elus didn't dare to hesitate, they reminded Chen Xue and made an emergency landing on the empty ground ahead. Chen Xue also no longer entangled with the evil spirits, whistled to make the lollipop jump into the middle of the evil spirits, and then turned around to chase after them.

"Hurry up! I won't be able to use any magic for a long time..."

Not as good as the sound just now, mixed with crazy roars and yelling at the rear, Elus was the first to land in the square of the town, she quickly clasped her hands together, and called out the world gate leading to the Adventurer's Tavern, waiting for Chart .

As for Chen Xue, she has a World Gate, of course Elusi will not invite her to go out of nowhere.

But she didn't realize that the moment she placed the World Gate, a black cloud that was about to move appeared three meters above her head.

"Hey! Be careful behind you!"

It's too late to dodge, with her current state she can't dodge at all!

Charter couldn't help but stare angrily when he saw Xu Xue rushing from another direction. He never expected that there would be another person who needed attention at this time.

"Hey—the betrayal has already been planned, so there is no reason to take it back, right?"

Xu Xue's voice was cold without any fluctuations. The black cloud shone with light, and the dazzling lightning flaunted its own danger and slashed straight down. Chalt gritted his teeth and squeezed out all his strength to speed up. He rushed to Elus and pushed her to the other side of the world gate. At the end, the body twitched violently in the next second, and the world in his vision instantly dimmed and fell apart.

The wide-eyed Elus yelled no, but the World Gate closed in response, and the scene between the dreams was suddenly broken before her eyes.

Chen Xue, who landed on the square, saw Charter's figure scattered into blue-purple shards, and the starry stars flickering in the sky dissipated. To express his disappointment with her stubbornness.

"Hmm... I've talked to her so much, but it's of no use."

The evil spirit had already chased towards the square, Chen Xue looked away, no longer hesitating for Chaerte or Xu Xue, he pulled up the jade hand to call out the World Gate, and left the gap of the dream on his own.

＊＊＊

At the intersection of the main roads in the town, the sculpture of the Madman of Dreams is isolated in place, his right hand is attached to his chest, and his left hand is waving to the distance. As if even the end of the world is unmoved, forever here to continue his speech. But at this time, the bright red blood splashed on half of its mask and dripped down its chin.

Suddenly, dark shadows enveloped the sculpture. With the sound of the blade splitting the evil spirit, and the mournful cry of the evil spirit, a piece of the shadow was incomplete, and the blood-red mask was just bathed in the light. The sharp sword head chopped off the sculpture's head in a second, and the tea cat took Lin Yu's hand and landed on the ground.

"I saw Arquette!"

Lin Yu adjusted his breathing and pointed to the position near the right above the sky. The tea cat didn't respond, but looked in the direction of Lin Yu's finger, jumped up abruptly, clenched Lin Yu's hand more forcefully, pointed the tip of the sword straight ahead, and headed in the direction of Arquette Speed ​​up several times.

"Hold me tight~"

In the center of dense black shadows, a sword light suddenly disappeared, piercing through the bodies of dozens of evil spirits, and it was not until the tea cat near Arket that it slowed down.

"It's just you and Jiang Cheng here?"

Lin Yu observed the vicinity of Arkaite, his eyes shuttled back and forth between the black shadows, and he couldn't find the third person.

"Lin Yu." He greeted Lin Yu, and he didn't dare to turn his eyes back to the evil spirit for a moment, "I didn't see anyone else, they should all have been washed away."

"That group of inexplicable observers chose this time to engage in these moths."

Lin Yu complained full of resentment, but found that Jiang Cheng glanced at his hand intentionally or unintentionally. Lin Yu, who suddenly reacted, coughed and let go of Tea Mao's hand, scratching his cheek as if to cover up his blushing, but Unexpectedly, I want to hide it.

"The serial number of the Thief of Dreams should be 10, so it is very likely that it is time for the ruler of the King of Thieves... To put it bluntly, Brother William is in trouble."

"Okay...Although we are in danger now, finding William will always be better than the current situation. Can you find a way to get out?"

"Maybe I need someone's help." I couldn't help but think of the white cat. It would be easier to escape if I had her dominance, but I didn't see her at all along the way, "Forget it... let's figure it out .”

The reason why it is difficult to break through the siege of evil spirits is because they are so numerous that they are disgusting. Even if some of them are repelled, there will be other evil spirits to fill the gaps.

You can only use the dominance of the three people here, as well as the power of the tea cat. The dominance of Arkat and I is useless here, Arkait can only wield his sword as a knight... and the tea cat is very destructive, and the flames of Jiangcheng are spreading, in other words, it is his. The attack range is wide.

If the advantages of both of them are combined, perhaps they can force a way out of the evil spirits and thus break through the siege.

"Tea Cat, do you have any passive skills like fire resistance?"

"Hey... can I say that I didn't understand you?"

"That is, if you let Jiang Cheng wrap his flames on your sword, or your arm or something, can you adapt to this temperature?"

After hearing this, the tea cat gave me a strange look. On the one hand, she fended off the evil spirit with the blade of the sword, on the other hand, she might think it was funny, so she gave a shallow laugh, her eyes almost narrowed into crescent moons. For some reason, Lin Yu felt that when she smiled, the tear moles at the corners of her eyes looked particularly charming.

"Lin Yu~ This idea is too cute~ Why do you think I have such attributes?"

"Don't laugh at me so blatantly... I just thought that you have participated in the domination war before, and whether you have worked with the dominator who manipulated the fire combo skills."

I did think of the fantasy scenes often seen in Western fantasy works, where the awakened swordsman is covered in flames and defeats the monster with three or four blows.

"Sure enough, such an RPG-style operation doesn't exist...Ordinary people wouldn't dream of such a scene."

"Hey~ I didn't say I couldn't~"

The tea cat easily avoided the attacks of several evil spirits, and there was a bit of intentional teasing in my eyes.

"It's been a long time?!" Lin Yu couldn't help raising his voice, and looked at the tea cat sadly, "Now I can be 100% sure that you are a serious natural black, definitely not some natural stupid It's...!"

"Hey hey~" The tea cat tilted its head as if hearing the praise, and let out another cute laugh.

"I didn't praise you! Do you understand what natural black means!?" Lin Yu complained again, looked at Jiang Cheng again, and ordered him solemnly, "Jiang Cheng, use your fire to wrap the On the tea cat!"

"Cheng... Can you bear it?"

Jiang Cheng's tone seemed uncertain, but Lin Yu nodded his head very definitely.

After all, after being in touch for so long, Lin Yu knew that she would not joke about this kind of thing again and again, and deliberately said a few irony.

"Then I did it..."

"Don't talk so much nonsense, just hurry up if you tell me, or do you not want to escape?"

"Why do you think Brother Lin's way of speaking is slightly different from before? Is it because of the tea cat girl?"

Lin Yu, who was blown up by the tea cat, was momentarily choked by his words, and simply did not respond to him.

Lin Yu inadvertently complained about Jiangcheng's martial arts style of speaking, where did he have the courage to talk about himself? On the contrary, he had many other doubts, such as why the tea cat always likes to tease himself, for example, although he gave the first kiss to the tea cat, but Neither he nor the tea cat had clearly confirmed their relationship or anything like that.

Jiang Cheng no longer asked Lin Yu, but chose to follow suit.

He clenched his fists tightly together, and suddenly the flames surrounding his fists burst into extremely dazzling sparks. He loosened his fists carefully, allowing the flames to condense in his palms, and the gradually expanding flames grew stronger and stronger. The more dazzling it is, it seems that every centimeter has gathered a considerable degree of heat.

The pupils adjusted the focus, the sparks in the field of vision began to blur, and only the girl's figure became clear. Jiang Cheng sent the flame in his hand to the girl, and the flame that soared into the sky seemed to have accepted an undeniable mission, attached to the girl's back, and suddenly spread to the surrounding skin.

Just a few seconds later, Tea Mao's whole body was covered in flames just as Lin Yushi imagined in his heart. Even if he didn't get close to her, he could feel the surrounding temperature rise a lot, and the intense temperature spread from her to the center. .

The black shadows near the tea cat were also covered in flames, screamed in pain, and then intensified their offensive like crazy.

Tea Mao's pupils flashed a trace of sadness. She clenched the hilt of the sword in her hand, turned to her side, and slashed from the far left to the right with all her strength, and the flame on the sword went out in an instant. The fierce wind hit the entire front of the field of vision, and the hot flame swept across the body of the black shadow one step later, burning the air.

The dense black shadows turned into a fiery red piece after the frantic burning, and spread rapidly towards the distance like a plague. The mourning sound became more and more intense in the sound of the flames, and gradually weakened in the sound of the flames. In this way, a huge hole was opened between the black shadows.

Lin Yu immediately reached out and grabbed Tea Mao's hand, trying to pull her away while taking advantage of the gap, but unexpectedly, being burned by the temperature of her hand, she instinctively retracted her hand. The pace also paused.

"Knowing that there is fire and still stretching it out, you are an idiot..."

The tea cat puffed up its cheeks slightly, and looked at Lin Yu's hand worriedly, but Lin Yu unexpectedly grabbed her hand that had not yet extinguished the flame.

Hold it tightly, not wanting to let go this time.

The two rushed out to the gap of the evil spirit, but for the first time, Tea Mao knew what the word "crazy thinking" meant.

She thought that Lin Yu would complain about the words "you are an idiot", and said that she was an idiot girl like a three-year-old child. She thought she knew Lin Yu well enough to guess what he would do next, but this time she didn't expect it.

"You don't hurt...!"

The tea cat couldn't break away from Lin Yu's hand, because Lin Yu clung to her hand tightly and refused to let go.

Lin Yu tested his head slightly and smiled heartily.

"When I see you, I feel lustful. I have no choice but to fly moths to the flame?"
