Chapter 363: Chapter 353: The Terrifying Neighbor
At the first level of the Library Tower, in the spacious Viewing Area, Tang Qi slowly closed a book he had been reading. The cover revealed the title: “Dream Realm Travelogue.”
This was the last Transcendent Book Tang Qi borrowed, and it contained the most answers to his perplexities.
The author was a renowned “Healer” from the Dark Age nad Lord Doctor.
The content of the travelogue detailed this Legendary Healer’s experiences in a strange world known as the “Dream Realm,” which he entered to heal so troubleso patients.
According to Lord Doctor’s accounts, it was a world of extre horror, indescribable and devoid of any logic.
Within it lived an abundance of unimaginable creatures.
The Dream-eating Spirit was one of them.
Once trapped in the Dream Realm, it was almost impossible to awaken.
And a single “dream” could cost you your life. The Dream Realm might grant you eternal life, imnse power, or endless wealth… It was indeed a world that could satisfy all desires.
But such fulfilnt only happened in dreams.
In return, the Dream Realm would seize all of your Life Force.
In fact, the Dream-eating Spirit’s ability was a mimicry of the Dream Realm.
How does one leave the Dream Realm?
As one of the recorded “survivors,” Lord Doctor also provided an answer.
It was the self!
The self, on a ntal and soulful level, once found, could free one from the Dream Realm.
Ignorance of the answer might have been bliss, but knowing it, Tang Qi’s expression turned even more solemn.
“Does a newborn baby have a self?”
“Even if it does, could it communicate? Can it be awakened by ?”
Several questions crept into Tang Qi’s mind.
For the first ti, Tang Qi felt a sense of helplessness.
His repertoire of thods and Special Ability seed hardly adequate to aid John, the pitiful baby.
“Huh”
Tang Qi exhaled a breath of turbid air and suppressed his sowhat muddled thoughts. Rising slowly, he allowed Night Beast and Gluttony to restore the books one by one.
Then, he glanced out the window beyond several Brahma Wood bookshelves. Night had fallen again.
To find clues and answers, while also allowing Secret Phoenix City’s Mysterious Side so ti to adapt and respond, Tang Qi spent the whole day not hunting outside. Instead, he holed up on the first floor, rapidly reading through dozens of Transcendent Books related to life and the Dream Realm.
The clues he obtained only intensified the headache.
“The only consolation is that tonight, the first Level 5 Danger Source will be disard.”
This thought sprang up as Tang Qi’s figure vanished from the Library Tower.
“Huh”
The light of the White Lighthouse once again focused on Tang Qi.
During the judgnt process, Tang Qi used his Badge to send a telepathic ssage to Professor Eva.
Subsequently, he appeared before a familiar cabin.
Sensing sothing, before Tang Qi even knocked, the cabin door “clicked” open automatically, and Nidya, clenching her long-eared rabbit, energetically unlocked the door and stood before him, with a look of extre caution on her face but thick anticipation in her eyes.
After all, she was just a little girl. No matter how mature her mind, she yearned to leave the “Isolation Zone.”
Tang Qi flashed Nidya a gentle smile, while his gaze shifted towards sothing behind her.
There, the Netherworld Banshee also looked back.
This eerie, horrifying “Guardian Spirit,” when faced with Tang Qi’s questioning gaze, hesitated for a mont, but ultimately nodded.
…
Monts later, in front of the White Lighthouse, a sphere of light appeared.
When the light dissipated, two figures – one tall, one short – appeared on the soft grass.
Professor Eva, who had been waiting for a while, along with a few caregivers, cast their gaze towards them.
The tall figure was none other than the familiar New Principal.
The small figure was a cute little girl with fair skin; she was holding a long-eared rabbit toy and surveying her surroundings with curious, cautious eyes. The amiable Professor Eva and several caregivers left a good first impression on her.
And the imposing, ancient “Dragon Heart Castle” directly ahead caused Nidya’s eyes to widen and her mouth to gape slightly in awe, as if sothing luminous spilled out from her lovely pupils.
“Danger Sources” in the Isolation Zone could occasionally catch a glimpse of the sky through the windows due to the Thick Mist, but that was about it. They couldn’t peer through the fog to see Dragon Heart Castle.
Because of Esralda’s influence, they might all be aware of Dragon Heart Castle’s existence and might even have heard of the old spinster’s descriptions.
But seeing it in reality still brought shock.
“Go ahead!”
“Professor Eva will arrange everything for you, starting tonight, you can attend school within this castle. You’ll be assigned to a suitable dormitory, perhaps even a few nice roommates, kind teachers, friendly classmates…”
As Tang Qi described, the glint in Nidya’s eyes grew vivid. The last vestiges of caution on her face gradually receded, and while she maintained the poise of a little lady, she couldn’t help but quietly cheer, then she walked towards Professor Eva.
Professor Eva and the caregivers imdiately took a liking to the girl.
At that mont, they indeed could no longer sense any dangerous aura emanating from Nidya, internally marveling at the New Principal’s power before leading Nidya away towards the lower area.
On another plane that only Tang Qi could see.
Tang Qi made eye contact with the now even more ethereal Netherworld Banshee; they nodded to each other.
Contract signed!
The Netherworld Banshee whose actions were restricted would no longer be able to kill indiscriminately as before, unless Nidya’s life was in danger.
And the right to decide that was not in the Guardian Spirit’s hands.
In order to allow Nidya to live a normal life, the Netherworld Banshee had no choice but to sign this rather unequal contract.
Once the contract was fulfilled, Nidya imdiately dropped from a Level 5 Danger Source to Level 2, and could normally attend classes with other students.
Having accomplished all this, Tang Qi felt a sense of achievent rise within him.
At the sa ti, the sense of urgency also intensified.
Including the young girl Lily, there were still ten Level 5 Danger Sources left, and judging from John’s situation, there would likely be even more trouble to co.
“Power.”
With a light exhalation, Tang Qi’s figure disappeared from the spot.
He did not return to the Isolation Zone but left the Lake Heart Island Secret Realm directly.
A whole day’s worth of reaction ti should be sufficient.
Now, it was hunting ti.
Tang Qi left the Secret Realm, transforming into a wisp of smoke, and drifted up into the sky.
Soon, his figure appeared amidst the misty moonlight, with the vast expanse of Green Dragon Ridge Lake below.
After nightfall, Dragon Ridge Lake was almost like a vast ocean. From any shoreline, all one could see were the churning waves, the gloomy nightfall, the beautiful, peaceful Great Lake from the dayti, which now gradually took on a more horrifying atmosphere.
Tang Qi’s eyes, filled with a dangerous intent, surveyed the entire Great Lake and the vast coastal area.
The original Green Dragon Ridge Lake, aside from human activities such as night fishing and vacationing, rarely saw any other disturbances.
Even chaotic and evil Extraordinary Creatures wouldn’t hunt humans or partake in other activities daily, as it would only attract the attention of the Ancient Castle Bureau and the Church.
But today was different.
Tang Qi had just unleashed his Special Ability, enveloping much of Green Dragon Ridge Lake, and within his eyes, traces of ghost light, like fireflies dancing in the darkness, began to light up one after another.
Due to the distance being too vast, Tang Qi could only judge their strength based on the intensity of the ghost light.
And these Extraordinary Creatures represented by the ghost light seed to have the sa activity tonight.
That is… moving house!
Indeed, tonight was the “relocation day” for all chaotic and evil beings around the Green Dragon Ridge area.
And their reason for moving was the sa.
There was now a terrifying new neighbor!
One could say that although the original neighbor was very powerful, their Camp tended to be neutral. Although the Witches knew that in Green Dragon Ridge Lake, along the coastal area, and even within the city area, many evil creatures lurked, they would not bother with them unless they provoked the Witch Group.
However, the latest news was that the Witch School had a new Principal.
Overbearing and unreasonable Principal.
Who took the initiative to eradicate evil creatures for the reason that it might scare his students in the future.
The report from “Mysterious Daily·Secret Phoenix Chapter” presented scenes from the eradicated nests of evil creatures and also vaguely published the silhouette of the new Principal, along with Rafael’s analysis of Tang Qi’s strength.
Extraordinary Creatures and forces who received the newspaper, whether they were neutral, Order, or Good, had no other reaction apart from a sigh.
But the Extraordinary Creatures and forces residing in chaos and evil had to make a choice.
To stay and confront.
Or, to move.
Clearly, many Extraordinary Creatures and forces chose the latter.
It must be said that those such as the “Resentful Demon,” “Mutated rmaid,” and “Radiation Monster” who died at the hands of Tang Qi on the first day were truly unfortunate—they did not have ti to make a choice because the fearso neighbor ca knocking first.
“Fuel, so much of it.”
Under the purplish moonlight, Tang Qi let out this exclamation.
This scene was entirely within his expectations. Delaying for a day was precisely to wait for this mont.
The Black Mountain Beech Wood Plate was indeed convenient, allowing him to seek out each target one by one. But sotis, there were even more convenient thods, like right now.
“Sigh.”
His gaze quickly swept through the area, and it was impossible to kill all the evil creatures relocating tonight.
Thus, Tang Qi needed to pick the best fuel.
Almost imdiately, his gaze landed squarely on a particular area within the surging waters below.
There, normal humans were carrying out so operation.
A large fishing boat, along with two dium-sized ones, seed to have undergone modification, equipped with winches, decompression chambers on the deck, and other such devices. The originally dark waters of the lake beca as bright as day because of the searchlights, lighting up a large area.
Dozens of humans were busily at work, sending “divers” down to the bottom of the lake, and their excited words were not hard to discern.
This was a fleet engaged in the “Salvage Industry,” their objective was to salvage the sunken ships deep within Green Dragon Ridge Lake, as well as the antiques and Treasure subrged within.
There were many such fleets in Green Dragon Ridge Lake.
So earned enormous profits while others went bankrupt.
But tonight, this fleet was both unlucky and fortunate.
As they eagerly pulled a diver up with anticipation, they only saw the just-resurfaced diver as if having encountered sothing utterly horrifying below, desperately climbing onto the deck and wailing madly as he did so.
“Quick, get out of here!”
“That ship… it’s been Resurrected!”
As if to prove the diver’s words, the next mont, the lake surface, which was only subtly undulating, suddenly revealed a huge, glowing vortex.
A shadow of an old, decrepit large ship erged beneath the vortex.
