Chapter 198 - 0198: Sound Asleep (Extra 2000, 4 updates, Request for Monthly Tickets)

“The monsters emerging from the fog… called Nightmare Demons, are evil creatures that feed on emotions, especially fond of attacking humans… Rarely seen in the real world, it’s surprising there are so many here.”

The group walked along the fog-drenched streets of Nia City, with light steps and rapid speed.

They divided their duties clearly, those physical-oriented tasked with defense, while the spellcasters stood at the center, ready for support at any moment.

“Nine o’clock direction ahead, something’s happening!”

Suddenly, the scout leading upfront came to a halt.

Su Lu, amidst the crowd, could already see a Nightmare Demon, similar to a wolf or dog, appearing at the street corner.

“The power of these evil creatures is entirely dependent on their size… That’s the weakest of the first level. Just send any assassin-type occupational person to tackle it.”

Su Lu muttered to himself.

Sure enough, within a minute, a secure signal came from the front, prompting the team to continue their march,

He had declared himself a spellcaster, so he could hide in the core and observe everything around him.

The origin of Nia City’s disaster, was it truly a Dream of the Ancient God?

This surprised Su Lu.

Moreover, in the East District, there seemed to be traces of God’s Blood.

That may be the source of everything, he had to check it out.

The strongest people in the team were relatively familiar to him from observing their mental realm.

For instance, the red-haired woman, Connie, who had spoken during the previous meeting, was a third-level occupational person with Transcendent backing.

The other, a man named Freddy, who played casually with firearms and appeared unruly, was also a third level.

As for Micius from The Eleventh Bureau, he was only at the second level.

This made Su Lu realize that most of the Federation’s power in Nia City had indeed been lost in the East District.

Besides, although the team had many members, the majority were first or second levels, which made Su Lu apprehensive.

He suspected that even without resorting to invoking evil spirits, he could probably wipe out this team simply with enough preparation.

‘Of course… The church and The Eleventh Bureau certainly have some tricks up their sleeves, perhaps they carry some powerful marvel…’

Su Lu observed Micius and the person next to him, contemplating this.

Due to the Nightmare Demons, their progress was slower than normal travel pace, but it had to be said that the increasingly dense fog not only obstructed their vision but also provided excellent cover.

“As expected…”

Su Lu breathed in, realizing more presences: “The closer we get to the East District, the more Nightmare Demons there are… This place is indeed the… core?”

Right at that moment, he sensed a massive presence, and couldn’t help but warn: “Be cautious, there’s a big one coming! ”

No one would be joking at times like these.

Even if he was a stranger, all occupational persons quickly looked for places to hide.

Such as… shadowy corners, roadside stores, or outright activating their Transcendent abilities.

Thud!

Thud!

A few minutes later, the deafening thud echoed. As if something roiled the fog, it became turbulent.

Thud!

A long spider leg descended from the sky, piercing the path’s surface.

A gigantic shadow was cast.

All the hidden occupational persons couldn’t help but hold their breaths.

A Nightmare Demon, seemingly a giant spider, slowly moved past them, disappearing into the fog.

“That was… terrifying…’

“To have grown to that size… it must be at least of the third level, no! The fourth… How many people did it swallow?”

“Once encountered, it’ll certainly spark a battle, attracting all the nearby

Nightmare Demons.” Micius exhaled, looking at Su Lu, “Good job, Ron!”

He didn’t expect that the blue-haired boy who merely claimed to be a second-level specialized spellcaster would possess such useful sensing ability!

“It’s nothing, we need to hurry.”

Su Lu looked up at the rainbow sky, feeling a sense of foreboding.

“Right… let’s move on!”

Micius wiped his cold sweat, hurrying to speak.

The occupational persons subsequently proceeded more cautiously, with Su Lu intermittently giving warnings, surprisingly reaching the entrance to a certain sewer in the East District without any danger. Traces of previous battles remained on the walls around.

“Yes, that’s the place!”

Micius’s eyes lit up: “The monsters below should have been cleared out by the captain, we just need to be careful about the final stretch!” “I’ve heard about the Flesh Polluter of the East District.”

Freddy voiced out.

Having made it this far, the team definitely couldn’t turn back, so they none too happily entered the sewer.

A foul stench accompanied by the smell of charred meat assaulted their senses.

Some black flesh and numerous footprints remained on the ground.

Besides that, seemingly because few people tread on this path, even Nightmare Demons rarely appeared. “It seems… this mission is quite simple?”

Ian breathed a sigh of relief.

But Su Lu, Connie, and even Micius’ expressions became increasingly solemn.

‘The Eleventh Bureau and the Church of Light all fell during the last stretch, it’s clear that there’s incredible danger there…’

Su Lu sustained a three-meter radius of spiritual awareness: ‘ However… the

Church must have a marvel or a secret spell which confirms that Archbishop Oliver is still alive! They also have high confidence in him, it can be inferred that he might be in a tug-of-war situation with the local horror source, or has obtained some key information. Hence, the urgent need for rescue…’

“We’re almost there!”

Surprisingly, the expected bloody breakthrough did not happen.

The East District’s sewer was unexpectedly calm, not a single Flesh Polluter in sight.

The occupational persons easily reached the final destination discovered by Oliver and his team the previous night.

“Light!”

Several spellcasters among the crowd chanted a syllable, and bright light emerged around them.

“Go in!”

Micius took a deep breath and was the first to step into the passage.

Su Lu, sensing something strange, followed him closely.

As the white light illuminated everything, they found themselves in a dead-end passage.

Members of The Eleventh Bureau and the Church lay askew on the ground, their chests rising and falling rhythmically as if they were… asleep?

“This…”

Micius couldn’t believe his eyes, he found Archbishop Oliver and Captain Theo, who had collapsed and fallen into a deep sleep.

However, these two couldn’t be awakened no matter what.

Moreover, the Wall of Flesh and the wanderer, which were at the end of the passage, had disappeared altogether.

“A mysterious mission, initially thought to be challenging, but unexpectedly so easy…”

Fatima shivered slightly and pulled out her revolver.

“No…”

Su Lu gazed at the fallen personnel and shook his head: “We have still failed… The most difficult part is to ‘rescue’ these people… but they probably won’t wake up.”

Their consciousness has likely entered the real terrifying dreamscape!

The Dream of the Ancient God!
