Chapter 327 -326: The End and the Pursuit
Actually,
the situation of the Nightmare Ga turned out to be much better than Yi Chen had anticipated,
Catherine not only lacked any petty cunning but also cared a great deal about “fairness,” even splitting the nightmare privileges in half, never taking advantage of anything.
It was apparent that Catherine did not harbor absolute malice;
she was more interested in finding amusent.
Moreover, there was one thing Yi Chen had entirely not expected, which was the issue of Teacher Zede’s strength.
He was so strong that he single-handedly dominated the scores of both players, even killing the pair, who were nightmares, multiple tis within the dream spaces.
Catherine was killed to a total negative score, and in the end, she was even forced to use a dangerous last resort that could alter her personality.
Additionally, another team mber, Wrinkled Skin Spacy’s ‘Dream Skin Planting’ could really invade dreams, and if he fully occupied the dream space, the ga would be forcefully ended.
Perhaps from the mont Wrinkled Skin brought his costu into the dream, Catherine’s defeat was sealed.
…
Connected by springs, Catherine scread almost madly:
“Impossible, the ‘Dream Entrance’ couldn’t possibly have been discovered… unless it was you! When was the information leaked, and how did you do it?”
Yi Chen, however, explained patiently, “I have never intentionally exposed it, nor have I left any written information to remind others. Catherine, you’ve been monitoring
all along;
you should know this well.
It was just due to so ‘abnormality’ on my part that others noticed and secretly followed .
Don’t underestimate humans, Catherine, like Teacher Zede, there are many powerful individuals in Zion.
Hurry up and end the ga! The person standing outside is very powerful, and he might truly erase you entirely.”
Perhaps because her life was genuinely threatened,
the brutality and bloodlust mingling within Catherine were restrained as she reached her right arm into her mouth and pulled out a pair of red scissors embedded in her soul.
All kinds of negative emotions also faded away, and the cracks and bright red on her cheeks disappeared as well.
She returned to her normal appearance and even stretched her arms to relax.
“The tool given by the boss is really dangerous~ I better not use it as much in the future.
It’s ti to go back to the Circus;
I’ve indeed been too relaxed recently… sigh~ Although I’m a bit frustrated, I indeed lost fair and square.
William, rember to co and find
at the Circus later, next ti I’ll definitely win against you in the ga.”
“We’ll talk about that once you’ve managed to escape Zion.”
“Are you worrying about ? Don’t worry, I still have the skills to escape~ Bye bye, William! I really enjoyed this ga.”
With bent springs, Catherine bent down and gave Yi Chen a deep hug.
Buzz!
Imdiately severing the connection with the dream space, her body quickly dissipated into a pool of ink-like substance.
As Catherine, the nightmare entity, left, the ga naturally declared Yi Chen the winner… At the sa ti, the entire Nightmare Space began to agitate, and it would completely collapse in no more than ten seconds.
In the last remaining monts of dreaming,
Yi Chen, with his silver hair, turned to look at Zede, who had already stopped all movent, ten ters away.
Considering that he was still in the Dream Space, the ‘Soul Contract’ might still be in effect, Yi Chen did not reveal his identity;
he rely bowed deeply to Zede.
The Dream Space collapsed.
When Yi Chen woke up in a bedroom plastered with Circus posters,
Catherine, who should have been lying next to him, was nowhere to be seen;
the room still held the aura of two Prophets, both of whom had followed Catherine in leaving.
The only one left was Irina, the pancake stall owner sitting on the edge of the bed, ready to help with any abnormalities upon Yi Chen’s awakening or take him directly to the hospital.
“Teacher, you’re awake! I’ve already checked your body;
there should be no major issues;
it’s just that the nerve reflexes in your right hand are a bit disorderly.”
“I’ll go to the hospital to check it later~ It might be an injury at the soul level.
Thank you for your efforts;
with this, the nightmare threat is over.
By the way, why do I sense multiple auras in the room… apart from Prophet Yuri, who else is there?”
“Marko and Mr. Martin joined on the way and found this place together.”
“I see, with two prophets skilled in killing chasing after her, can Catherine really escape? Those two are amongst the best at slaying enemies among the prophets.”
“It’s not just two people, oh, Lord Yuri, to ensure the complete eradication of the hidden threats, slyly utilized the core power of the Cesimani. Currently, several Executioner squads are lying in ambush outside the city, ready to attack the nightmare if it escapes.”
“By the way, Miss Jin and Instructor Beili you know are both among them.”
These words made Yi Chen startle,
for so reason the ever-composed Yi Chen now felt a slight panic.
“Let’s go together and see what’s happening.”
“Teacher, don’t you need to rest?”
“I’ve slept for so long, no need for any more rest! Let’s rush over and see. If Catherine is killed, things may get quite troubleso… Behind her, there’s a special and mysterious organization that might bring disaster upon Zion if we offend them.
I’ve already signed a contract with Catherine, so she will never invade Zion again,
under these circumstances, the best option is for her to stay alive and escape.”
“Ah? I wonder if it’s still possible… Lord Yuri has been chasing after her for a while now, and I guess the Executioner Group lying in ambush outside the city has started to close their net.”
“Let’s go!”
…
Outside Zion City.
Caught between reality and dreams, Catherine is achieving incredibly high speeds both sliding and flying by using the propulsion from her nightmare gas and the movent of her octopus tentacles.
Her abdon had been sliced open with a ‘slaughter wound’ that was hard to heal, her guts hanging out, barely kept inside by the tentacles to prevent her organs from spilling out.
Catherine’s left arm was also completely severed;
the cut was smooth but could not regenerate and heal.
“What in the world is this bald human!?”
The bald man Catherine was referring to was Prophet Yuri.
The injuries on her body were mostly caused by Yuri. Despite appearing rely as ordinary hand blade cuts, they felt as if they were utterly slaughtering her soul, giving a direct feeling of being bound to the gallows and butchered.
Swish!
A streak of bright red flashed before Catherine’s eyes, her lower half and several dozen tentacles were all cut off.
Moreso, the concept of ‘being slain’ was conveyed alongside the cut.
Catherine’s body, under the impact of this strike, actually reached its limit of endurance and explosively burst open!
With this strike, the Nightmare Epidemic Value between the dream layers completely depleted, and if she were to be slaughtered again, she would truly die.
The burst body of hers transford into ten different octopus tentacles, running in different directions.
However,
before she had even fully decided on her escape route, Prophet Marko had already divined it, conveying the routes and each tentacle’s form to the Executioner Group.
One… two… three…
The tentacles that Catherine had split off were being rapidly slaughtered.
Two of them were literally crushed alive by an Executioner, whose Red Lotus seed to radiate an unimaginably intense malice.
Seven… eight… nine…
“Am I going to die here… Ah! I knew I shouldn’t have co to play here, what kind of monsters are these.”
With just one tentacle left, Catherine was nearly in tears.
The aura of slaughter behind her was closing in rapidly,
Yuri, completely unleashed, was like a bald God Killer, his path cutting through trees and stones automatically, moving as fast as a hundred-legged beast.
When the chase was down to the last fifty ters.
Yuri prematurely extended a flesh-forged slaughter knife from his right arm, locking on the ‘slaughter line’, and threw the blade, delivering the final strike to Catherine.
Swish!
Sothing was slashed in half.
Yuri gradually slowed his chase, frowning as he stared ahead,
On the mountain path, what his slaughter knife had cut was not a nightmare tentacle but a magic hat that had appeared out of nowhere.
