Chapter 548: King of Nightmares, the Last Battle (PART I)!
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“The situation is steady now. It seems that Dragon City’s advancent is unstoppable.”
“This test is indeed rather challenging but not entirely unacceptable... With the experience we learned from here, there’s a 50% chance that we can successfully advance!”
“The aliens here are almost eliminated. Let’s go to the headquarters of Dragon City. A lot of aliens are still gathered there. Let’s kill as many of them as possible for their power of providence.”
Not far away from Dragon City, many people from the settlents abroad were coming.
As the reinforcents from other settlents ca, human beings had advantages in all the branch settlents apart from Dragon City. Under such circumstances, so powerful settlents sent so n to the headquarters of Dragon City.
“”&#%#@...”
The aliens quickly sent so mbers to stop the reinforcents.
A dark green creature that seed to be made of jelly pressed on the ground and then leaped into the sky.
It was a Sludge Monster, the second alien race that the “Twin Dragon Mount” fort encountered during the Ten-Species Competition.
Back then, the Ordinary Sludge Monsters weren’t too strong, and they were more like a primitive tribe.
However, Transcendent Sludge Monsters ant sothing else!
Splash!
After flying into the sky, the Sludge Monster quickly expanded more than a thousand ters in diater and released the powerful vibe of Transcendent Rank-6. It looked like a green lake, and the seriously corroded bodies of humans and aliens could be seen.
The bodies were absorbed by the Sludge Monster when it moved. Its Transcendent ability was to swallow remains and transform them into lethal poison.
Also, its jelly-like body could significantly resist most attacks. Once it caught anyone, the victim would be like floating in a swamp. There was barely a chance for them to escape!
“Oh, no!”
Therefore, facing the green lethal lake that blocked the sky, a team of reinforcing players from another settlent changed their expression.
It was because the Sludge Monster had too massive a coverage for them to escape. Also, they couldn’t resist the Transcendent Rank-6 poison at all even though they had Transcendent combat abilities too.
“Move away!”
A roar ca from behind.
Then, a man who wore majestic golden armor jumped to the sky and punched his thick fist. Then, a golden fist hundreds of ters in diater appeared in the sky and hit the green Sludge Monster that was falling from the sky!
He was none other than Bahubali, the best player in Sandia.
Boom!
Even though the Sludge Monster’s jelly body could significantly reduce the impact, its part that was hit by the golden fist was still penetrated through.
Around the fist, a glittering light that resembled cracks spread around the fist.
Pew! Pew! Pew!
Then, the Sludge Monster fell apart into a dozen pieces and fell down.
“Bahubali, Bahubali!”
The players of Sandia who almost died cried excitedly.
“Bahubali, Bahubali!”
Every household in Sandia on Earth was cheering too.
Splash!
However, while they were celebrating, the pieces of the Sludge Monster suddenly jerked.
All the green broken pieces leaped from the ground and turned into smaller Transcendent Sludge Monsters that lunged at the players from Sandia.
“Watch out!”
“Dodge!”
Billions of exclamations echoed at the sa ti.
The players of Sandia, having been through a lot of battles, reacted quickly enough by activating the Transcendent defense.
“Ah! Ah...”
However, the Sludge Monster’s poison was so corrosive that it ate away the Transcendent power. Two Sandia players were enveloped and scread!
“You’re asking to be killed!”
Bahubali burst into fury and waved his arm that wore a golden armband again.
Pa! Pa! Pa!
A dozen golden fists appeared in the sky again and hit the smaller Sludge Monsters, blowing them up into a hundred pieces.
However, in the blink of an eye, a hundred even smaller Sludge Monsters appeared on the field.
Also, they were relatively small.
As a matter of fact, every Sludge Monster was dozens of ters in diater, so all the Sandia players were caught in trouble.
Bahubali frowned.
At this mont, the battles on the branch settlents were coming to an end, and the battle at the headquarters of Dragon City probably attracted the attention of half the people in the entire world!
Since he intended to be recognized as the “world’s best”, he should show unparalleled abilities.
He was Transcendent Rank-7 and very good at fighting. Generally speaking, he could instantly kill the Transcendent Rank-6 creatures.
However, this Sludge Monster was too sturdy and also had the talent ability to split and transfer its damage.
As a result, his first battle on the main battlefield didn’t go very well.
“Help , Siva!”
Bahubali coldly activated his talent.
When he punched again, an enormous godly statue that had an oval head and a halo behind appeared in the sky!
“I am Siva’s son, and I shall beat all my enemies!”
Boom!
Bahubali took action again and punched one of the Sludge Monsters with a statue on his back.
Pop! Crackle!
The Sludge Monster that was hit remained undamaged, yet the other Sludge Monsters exploded like firecrackers and didn’t split again.
Siva, one of the three main gods, was both the Destroyer and the Creator.
Bahubali’s talent skill, “Siva’s Son”, allowed it to make use of so of Siva’s power and destroy the hundred split Sludge Monsters easily!
“This thing is Siva from Sandia? Siva’s Son is truly a hilarious title.”
“That being said, this man is probably really the best player in Sandia. He might truly be even stronger than Dragon City’s Master!”
Exactly as Bahubali had speculated, a lot of people had focused their attention on him and compared him with Ji Ye.
“Stronger than the City Master? He’s not even close!”
A Dragon City player who had died in battle and returned to Earth remarked coldly on the forum.
Dreamland Dragon City on the Land of Inheritance, which was different from other branch settlents and was in the sa location as Dragon City but in another space, had been peaceful since the beginning of the battle.
It was because not many aliens were capable of entering dreams and because of the man who was ensconced to the throne the whole ti.
In the beginning, there was a group of aliens nad “Illusions”, which looked like spiders, that broke into Dreamland Dragon City. They wove webs of glamorous dreams and covered Ji Ye with them.
That was the end of it.
A dozen Transcendent Illusion Spiders were being dissected by the researchers down below.
Under such circumstances, no aliens dared to challenge him unless they were truly strong!
“I walk out of horror. All lives tremble in my presence.”
Suddenly, the air around Ji Ye shivered, and a stranger erged in front of him with a hoarse voice.
That was a purple creature that looked like a dragon, except that it had sharp stings all over its body and fangs like swords in its mouth. It was as huge as a mountain!
“What’s that?”
“What is this monster?”
“D-Don’t co any closer!”
“I want to go!”
Everybody in Dragon City was caught in extre fear.
“I’m reborn in hatred, and I’m going to fill every life with it!”
Another stranger appeared behind it. Its body was wreathed in black and red magma, and its hair was fluttering flas too. Black smoke rose from its skin.
“I hate you! I hate you!”
The residents in Dreamland Dragon City suddenly had bloodshot eyes and growled at those around them.
“I’m born from death. I hope you’re all prepared to die!”
Another Nightmare appeared. Its skin seed to be a thin layer of dust, and its eyes were gloomy and dark.
Every resident of Dreamland Dragon City who saw its eyes felt that they were dying. They held their necks and could hardly catch their breaths. So even passed out.
“In carnage, I bloom, like a flower in the dawn.”
Another Nightmare appeared. It held a double-barreled shotgun. Its arms were like bloody sickles. It had the body and face of a human, but it wore a weird red-and-white mask.
“Are you finally here, Nightmares?”
Ji Ye suddenly opened his eyes but remained calm, avoiding any emotional waves.
The Nightmares were an alien group that was even weirder than dragons. They didn’t have a fixed appearance and could transform into anything.
They could be demons, wild beasts, stones, or even angels.
“Despair! Despair! Despair!”
“Be tortured in eternal pain!”
Horror, slaughter, death, desperation, pain, destruction... Eight Nightmares in different appearances appeared in eight directions of Dreamland Dragon City.
One was a purple monster with tentacles all over its body and a glowing eye at the center, and one had a body that was entirely a mouth... All of them were Transcendent Rank-6 and Quasi Legendary!
“Kill! Kill! Kill...”
“This world is hopeless. Let’s all be destroyed!”
“It’s so painful...”
Under the shadow of the Nightmares, the residents of Dream Dragon City all seed in agony.
Many even gnashed their teeth and grabbed the weapons that had been prepared for city defense to kill themselves.
Just like the dragons, the Nightmares were born a Transcendent race.
Also, their Transcendent power was even harder to resist than that of dragons, because it was based on feelings and could influence feelings.
If the human beings who were qualified to enter Dreamland Dragon City had advantages in ntal power in the first place, those Nightmares could’ve deprived them of their capability of resistance or even let them brutalize each other simply by showing up.
Of course, Ji Ye was an exception.
“This man is the human beings’ leader!”
“He carries more than one-third of the total power of providence in this human settlent. If we kill him, we’ll be the greatest winner of this battle!”
The eight Nightmares in different appearances surrounded Ji Ye and emitted ntal waves that were comprehensible to the human beings, which made the human beings find it even harder to control themselves.
Ji Ye was still seated above Dreamland Dragon City. He didn’t raise his eyes or move his body at all.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
However, the air around him rippled, and seven creatures manifested themselves.
Those creatures were in the shape of human beings but slightly different from normal.
For example, one of the n was tall but had slim arms. His hair and his eyebrows were all golden.
“You think you can take down my master? How stupid...”
Crossing his arms, the golden-haired young man’s face was filled with violence and disobedience. His body emanated golden light as he turned into a giant Golden Condor more than a hundred ters long. It attacked the largest alien nad Horror.
“Transcendent power analysis... Weakness analysis... Weapon chosen: All-obliterating depleted uranium bomb. Launch confird!”
A translucent woman in white, on the other hand, spoke in a chanical female voice that sounded like artificial intelligence.
All the high-tech equipnt in Dreamland Dragon City, including the massive electromagnetic cannons and the fighter jets, was controlled precisely and launched nuclear bombs towards the Nightmare that represented Destruction.
“Die!”
A young man who looked quite gender-neutral spoke briefly, and his clothes that seed to be made of blood simply exploded into shocking bloody vines that enveloped the Nightmare that represented slaughter.
“Nightmares? In my mories, you are indeed not a species that’s easy to deal with. Let’s see what you’ve got!”
Another woman, who was tall and had the vertical pupils of dragons, raised her hand, and a smaller version of Dreamland Dragon City appeared in the sky, swallowing the Nightmare that represented “Pain”.
“The cycle of life and death continues. We will live, they will die.”
There was a young man who had a dog head and wore a black-and-white fur coat and who looked rather hilarious. He was holding a staff and he had chosen the Nightmare that represented “Death” as his opponent!
“Why did he say that? Is he Curator of the Sands from Runeterra? Or is he Anubis?”
“How can he be Curator of the Sands? Nasus doesn’t have such skin, alright? He’s clearly a husky!”
Several n on Earth were rather confused.
“I don’t think they’re human beings, are they?”
So players who had exited the Land of Inheritance and watched the stream on Earth noticed sothing wrong.
“They’re all the City Master’s followers and can make use of his power. They can resist Quasi Legendary aliens. Bahubali is able to fight Quasi Legendary Transcendent Rank-6 enemies, but the City Master’s followers can already do that without him taking action at all!”
The players of Dragon City who had returned to Earth after death said proudly.
The Golden Condor, the Bloodsoul Vine Tree, the Thousand-Year Tree Demon, the husky, the Dream Forging Queen...
Those human-like creatures were all Ji Ye’s contracted creatures, and they were just as strong as the Nightmares.
The most terrifying part of the Nightmares was that it was impossible for the other creatures that were affected by them to concentrate.
However, Ji Ye’s contracted creatures were different. They were ntally linked to Ji Ye. Not only did they gain enormous ntal resistance, but they could also make use of Ji Ye’s power.
Boom, boom, boom!
Whenever a contracted creature attacked, Ji Ye’s illusion would appear behind them to hold back their ntal influence. He even helped with the battle at the crucial monts!
Pew! Pew! Pew!
Although his every attack was casual, and sotis he only extended one finger, he always attacked the weakness of the Nightmares’ defenses, and his finger consisted of enormous power.
Whenever his finger hit a Nightmare, the Nightmare would explode imdiately.
If the Nightmares hadn’t been immortal, as long as negative feelings existed, the eight Transcendent Rank-6 Nightmares would’ve died dozens of tis.
Compared to such a one-versus-eight battle, Bahubali’s achievent of blowing up one enemy seed unremarkable.
Yet he considered himself the best player of Sandia and the second-best player in the world. How could he be so ordinary yet confident?
“Hilarious. One versus eight? There are eight Transcendent creatures here. Are they all Dragon City’s Master’s own strength? You people of Chidragon are truly shaless.”
But obviously, the people of Sandia were dissatisfied.
“I admit that Dragon City’s Master is quite strong in certain aspects, but there’s no evidence to support the claim that he’s the best in the world. Counting eight people’s strength as one person’s, you people always like fake statistics like that.”
There were also audiences from other countries that joined the debate.
Indeed, just like what happened hundreds of years before, once the external pressure was soothed, there would be internal problems.
“Are you kidding? Of course it’s his own power. Contracting is the City Master’s talent ability. His contracted creatures are certainly his own power.”
“Bahubali has the talent skill that allows him to make use of Siva’s power, and that’s his power. But when soone from Chidragon has contracted creatures for the battle, their powers are not counted as his? That’s such classic double standards. However, the ti has changed!”
On the forum of the Land of Inheritance, the players of Dragon City who returned to Earth after death said in disdain.
Yes, ti had changed.
Inside Dreamland Dragon City, eight negative feelings ford aliens again, and they were blown up by Ji Ye’s eight contracted creatures again!
“Enough, we cannot fight as individuals anymore!”
“Let’s join our strength and kill him in our ultimate form.”
One of the Nightmares roared aloud. Then, they blew each other up.
What they said and did clearly indicated that they were releasing so sort of ultimate skill. There was no telling why Ji Ye didn’t stop them.
Actually, he couldn’t stop them, because the Nightmares had been reborn with negative feelings after killing themselves.
Hum!
All the eight Nightmares detonated themselves.
All the negative feelings were combined into what seed to be a black hole in midair.
It was ten tis more powerful than the original eight Nightmares combined. It was so powerful that it broke the restriction of the dreamland and appeared on the real battlefield in Dragon City!
“What alien is that?”
“Why do I feel scared?”
“Why do I feel like I’m dying after just a quick glance at it? I feel so strongly even though I’m just watching the stream. What are the people in the Land of Inheritance feeling? Will they be killed?”
In fact, he was quite a jinx. A lot of people had died in the Land of Inheritance.
When Dreamland Dragon City was broken, ntal waves swept across the battlefield. Without any attack, the soldiers below the Transcendent level lost the determination to fight.
Thousands of people died, and the survivors were trembling with fear on the ground, giving out negative feelings to the enormous red ball in midair.
The weird red moon shone in the sky in the middle of red mist. Everybody could see nothing but redness. Horror, slaughter, death, desperation, pain, destruction... The negative feelings reduced anyone below Transcendent Rank-5 into chaos.
Among those above Transcendent Rank-5, only the determined heroes or players had kept their combat abilities!
However, they couldn’t really defeat the enemy whose level was much higher than their own.
“Soldiers, follow !”
Xiang Yu, who had defeated the enemies and won the bet, roared and soared to the sky around eight black Flood Dragons. Carrying the magnificent strength of Transcendent Rank-7, he stabbed the red glittering ball with his long spear.
“Roar!”
The next mont, he was flung back.
The eight Flood Dragons that were made of the soldiers of his hotown all collapsed, and all the survivors who had just fought the aliens relentlessly were annihilated. The long spear scread and cracked, turning back into a horse that was covered in blood.
Boom!
In the end, Xiang Yu, whose armor was completely ruined and whose body was covered in blood, fell heavily to the surface of the sea, causing a pit with a radius of a thousand ters. He even fell all the way into the mud and never ca up.
As the strongest hero in Dragon City except for Sun Wukong, Xiang Yu was as strong as Transcendent Rank-7 after the enhancent of the battle formations. Even so, he couldn’t resist the counterattack of the red moon!
Then, an enormous eye opened inside the red moon in the sky.
[King of Nightmares]
[Level: Transcendent Rank-8]
[Rarity: Legendary]
[Description: The King of Nightmares from ancient legends. They can only be born with the negative feelings of powerful creatures gathered. Infinite destruction, pessimism, and devastation reside in their eyes...]
Inside the bloody moon, an enormous eye was slightly opened.
Under the suppression of the red moon, the soldiers that made up the battle formations couldn’t move anymore, so the Eight Formation Maze didn’t exist anymore.
Therefore, the eyes looked at the altar area at the core of Dragon City.
As if it was on purpose, the projections of the Earth settlent cores at the altar area in Dragon City all belonged to the best settlents in other countries.
Those settlents had mostly won the Road to Legendary quest or had great advantages. They had already sent reinforcents earlier.
However, from a settlent core that looked like a pirate ship, a dozen n were just walking out.
They were led by a short and fat man and a cold and slim guy. They were still whispering to each other.
“Although the projection of our settlent is inside Dragon City, there’s no need to hold back in our battles. We should focus on killing the aliens and looting their power of providence. Don’t bother the ordinary people or the buildings...”
However, the conversation ca to an abrupt halt when they walked out of the settlent core.
Seeing the eye inside the red moon that just opened at him, the young man was alerted in his head by his talent.
However, it was already too late.
A beam of red light enshrouded all of them. They were dismbered from their feet to their heads like slow motion in movies.
The short fatty opened his mouth, as if he were cursing, but under the red light that contained Transcendent Rank-8 energy, he could not utter any sound.
In the blink of an eye, a dozen Transcendent players and heroes were dissected into nonexistent particles under the gaze. The fury, fear, and other negative energy that they emitted when they were dying turned into a red mist that was absorbed by the King of Nightmares and made it even stronger!
Seeing such a scene, all the billions of viewers on Earth could think of was that it was invincible.
One glance had easily wiped out a human settlent. That was the power of Transcendent Rank-8. It was absolutely unparalleled and suffocating.
Even though the viewers were not in the Land of Inheritance, they all felt like their hearts were exploding. They shivered and sweated, not daring to stare at the red eye at all.
“F*ck!”
“What the hell?”
“Are they still alive?”
The audience of Jaipan, on the other hand, all exclaid and cursed in desperation.
