Start with a rent-collecting magical girl

"King, look, thanks to Mr. Forget-Me-Not's self-destruction and sacrifice, I collected all the dark matter energy in his body and successfully shattered the barrier set up by the traitors."

"Your dependents, our compatriots will finally no longer be restricted. Without the shady secrets, they will spread to every corner of the city and become your real army, occupying the land for you and taking back everything that belongs to you."

Heimeng is like a happy little girl.

She held the crystal ball in both hands and cheered to Liao Baiyu with excitement and excitement.

Her words were full of sincerity, without any trace of hypocrisy.

She also longed for Liao Baiyu's recognition and praise.

It's like a girlfriend who has been in a long-distance relationship and gives a carefully prepared gift to her husband who has finally reunited.

However, it was different from Heimeng's cheerful mood at the moment.

What Liao Baiyu saw in the crystal ball was blood and fire.

Just as Heimeng said, a large piece of black curtain was shattered.

They are countless nightmare beasts that have spread widely from the school.

It was on the front line that the police officers who tried to resist desperately and delay the expansion of the nightmare beasts were killed one by one by the nightmare beasts, with their flesh and blood flying everywhere.

same.

It was also the defense line of the police officers, but it was quickly overwhelmed by the swarming nightmare beasts. All the citizens started a battle royale of the nightmare beasts in X City.

"What's wrong, King? Why do you look at me like this?"

"Did Heimeng do something wrong?"

"Ah, I understand, King, you still have feelings for humans, I understand, otherwise you wouldn't have given your power to them."

The nun said, and the projection in the crystal ball also turned to several magical girls.

It turns out that Concubine Jia, Lei Yi and others fought against the leader of the seven-headed snake in the dark.

Because Crescent Private School had been emptied out by Liao Baiyu a long time ago, and there were no students, so they could basically fight without any worries, and they didn't have to worry about monsters and the like.

But now, due to the shattering of the black curtain, the scope of the nightmare beasts' activities is no longer restricted. A large number of nightmare beasts are running outside, and outside are ordinary people, citizens.

Concubine Jia, Lei Yi and other magical girls had to shift their focus.

With Lei Yi alone holding the leader back, the other magical girls devoted their energy to stopping the nightmare beasts from escaping and preventing them from flooding into the city center.

But.

It can be seen from the picture in the crystal ball that although the efforts of several magical girls have indeed been effective and greatly slowed down the tide of nightmare beasts, this is completely a vicious cycle.

Because the low-level nightmare beasts are endless and can continuously pour out from the dimensional cracks, but their magic power is limited, and they will only be consumed if they continue like this.

If you want to truly close the rift, you can only kill the leader and get rid of the seven-headed snake, but the seven-headed snake itself is a "ghost" level, and it is also a deformed type characterized by its tenacious vitality.

When I was pressed down and beaten by the two Jia Fei and Lei Yi before, the space was too small. There was only school and I couldn't run away.

But it's different now.

With a larger space for activities, the entire city can be a battlefield for the Hydra.

It has enough space to deal with Leiyi, and it even seems to be constantly absorbing the negative emotions from people in the city. Whether it is the body's resilience or strength, it is visible to the naked eye that it continues to skyrocket.

Negative emotions turn into the nightmare beast's appetite, but the magical girls can only continue to consume magic power in order to protect the citizens.

One goes down and the other goes up.

That’s why it’s said to be a vicious cycle.

More and more fish that slipped through the net ran out of the obstruction of the magical girls and came to the city, to large squares, and residential areas. More and more innocent ordinary people were maimed and slaughtered by the beasts.

"It's okay King."

Black Dream comforted him.

"I will calculate the minimum number of groups that the human race wants to maintain."

"After that, I will let my compatriots keep this part of humanity."

"In the future, we will keep humans in captivity and leave them a piece of land in this world so that the king can enjoy them."

"Or you can choose some of them and adopt them as pets. I can help you satisfy whatever the king wishes."

Black Dream is still sketching a mirror image of the future for Liao Baiyu.

Liao Baiyu took a deep breath.

He suppressed the anger in his heart and warned himself to calm down. What's more, from the projection just now, he found a way to get out of here with a high probability. As long as he gets out, everything is still possible.

There is hope.

It's not too late.

so.

"Heimeng, your first day was a success. I think I will never forget you in the future."

"Yes King, you are finally"

The nun's eyes lit up, and her eyes showed the excitement of finally being able to achieve success after waiting so hard. But before she could do anything with her heart full of joy, the next moment, for the first time, she showed a panic expression on her face.

"No, King, what are you going to do!"

Liao Baiyu once again summoned the Dragon Nightmare Armor and his jet-black sword.

However, this time the sword edge was not pointed at Hei Meng, but towards Liao Baiyu's own thigh.

Liao Baiyu noticed something keenly from the real-life images projected by the crystal ball.

That is, Tata.

To be precise, it was the unconscious young man on Tata's back.

Not yourself or who else.

Tata did not participate in the battle in order to protect herself. The girl now looked at her unconscious self as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.

After seeing this scene, Liao Baiyu could confirm his previous guess.

Since the body is still in reality.

Here, it can only be the spiritual realm.

This also explains why the nun can change the space and clothes at will.

Dark dream.

Dream.

Since this is a dream, the most straightforward and effective way to wake up from the dream and get out of here is naturally...

Poof!

Liao Baiyu directly pierced his thigh with the sword edge.

The stinging sensation of a blunt instrument entering the flesh immediately spread along the nerves to Liao Baiyu's perception.

Almost at the same time.

I saw that this illusory space created by the black dream, with stars, the Milky Way, and the blurred and romantic purple butterflies, really started to tremble.

"No no! King. No! No!"

The nun panicked.

She ran to stop Liao Baiyu.

But although the boy's legs were dripping with blood and the tingling sensation spread throughout his body, Liao Baiyu's expression was still calm.

Looking at the collapsed space, dreaming like broken glass, the boy exerted one last force and rotated the sword edge in the blur of flesh and blood, while leaving behind some parting words for the nun.

"Heimeng, one day, I will give all of this back."

The intense pain completely made it impossible to maintain the space created by Heimeng.

When dreams are no longer beautiful.

When severe pain begins.

People will wake up.

Maybe the same goes for the Nightmare Beast?

X city

"hiss!!"

Liao Baiyu took a breath, grinned, and sat up directly from the stretcher bed.

The voice of surprise from Tata next to him soon came.

"Bai Yu!"

"Cousin wuwu, you, you finally woke up, wuwu, you scared me to death, I, I really don't know what to do, if something happens to Bai Yu, I, how can I explain to everyone, I, I don't Alive! Woohoo!”

Tata looked at Bai Yu who was getting up, and couldn't hold himself any longer. All the previous tension turned into tears, and he threw himself directly into Liao Baiyu's arms and began to cry bitterly.

"Okay, okay, it's okay. I'm back now, aren't I?"

Liao Baiyu first comforted Tata, and then looked at his left leg. Fortunately, there was no wound and it moved normally. Except for the pain that was still fresh in his memory, there was nothing else.

Then what's next

"No, it's not good! Cousin! It was when you were in a coma that something shady happened..." Tata waited until he cried with joy, then quickly remembered that the crisis had not been resolved yet, so he hurriedly reported to Liao Baiyu.

But the boy shook his head and gave Tata a reassuring gesture. He already knew the form.

"Don't worry, now that I'm back, leave everything to me."

"Yes, but without the shady cover, we can't stop the nightmare beasts at all. There are too many of them. If this continues, the whole city will be destroyed."

Seeing that Tata was still anxious, Liao Baiyu got up and flew high into the sky after checking his body.

"Who said we were going to stop him?"

"Since that guy said I am the king, let me see the power of the 'king'."
