Chapter 796: Exposure

What is this?

Looking at the black-gold beetles that climbed onto the foreheads of humans and then settled down without moving, and then looking at the beetle climbing up from his trouser leg, Hearing Li Ang, who had goosebumps all over his back, couldn't help but ask:

"These bugs..."

"These bugs are the insurance I prepared for this operation."

After looking at Hearing Li Ang, who was full of resistance, a malicious smile appeared on the thin man's face, and he answered with a smile for the first time since meeting Hearing Li Ang:

"Their name is 'Brain-Eating Magic Bugs.' They will directly eat the target's brain, completely preventing the target from dreaming, and will multiply infinitely after eating the target's brain."

"???"

"Think about it, isn't the most troublesome thing about the King of Nightmares that it can move infinitely in human dreams?"

After looking at Hearing Li Ang, whose eyes widened suddenly, the Scorpio Branch Director said unhurriedly:

"But dreams are things that can only be done by people with brains. As long as it sneaks into someone's dream, I will let the 'Brain-Eating Magic Bugs' eat that person's brain, and the King of Nightmares will fall out of the dream."

"Even more simply, just eat the brains of everyone who has nightmares in advance, so you don't have to worry about it making everyone in the Kingdom have nightmares after it descends."

"..."

Because people without brains can't dream, so in order not to have nightmares for a lifetime in the future, you just eat all the brains in advance?

You are really a little genius!

After his cheeks twitched slightly, Hearing Li Ang decisively reached out his finger and poked the black-gold beetle that was climbing toward his head.

【Name: Dream-Eating Alien Beetle (Dream-Eating, Fission)】

【Appearance: A strange beetle of the order Coleoptera, family Scarabaeidae, with a black shell like baked lacquer and bright golden back wings. The pattern on the abdomen resembles a screaming human face, and the size is similar to the fingernail of an adult male human thumb】

【Ability: Devour dreams, fission and multiply】

【Cost: An anomalous object that can only be used once in a lifetime. After using this anomalous object to order the mother beetle, it is equivalent to signing an irrevocable contract with the mother beetle. The user's dreams in the future will all be used as food to feed the mother beetle of the Dream-Eating Alien Beetle】

【File: The second-generation director of the Scorpio Branch of the Cleaning Bureau, after killing the Dream World god "Dream-Dropper," fed the strange beetle with its corpse. It has the special ability to devour the dreams of living beings, and as long as there are people dreaming, it can multiply rapidly】

"More than four hundred years ago, the warehouse of the Scorpio Branch was stolen. Two sub-beetles of the Dream-Eating Alien Beetle were lost, and they multiplied to nearly one hundred million within 32 hours, devouring one-fifteenth of the world's dreams that day, and were still splitting rapidly."

"To solve this anomalous object out-of-control event, the Cleaning Bureau had to make a big move... caused damage... restricted... received a request for help... forcibly opened... carried..."

【Evaluation: The nemesis of Dream World creatures, an anomalous object that the King of Nightmares dreams of destroying. If you can collect all the mother and sub-beetles and send them to the Dream World to the King of Nightmares, it is willing to kowtow to you for a hundred years】

【Infection Value: 60.1】

"..."

Damn, it turns out to be a bluff! Scared me!

After reading the file of 【Dream-Eating Alien Beetle】, Hearing Li Ang breathed a long sigh of relief, loosened his palm that was clutching 【Dream-Invader】, and noticed his movement, the thin man sneered and said playfully:

"Why, are you afraid of having your brain eaten? If you are afraid, just ask me, and I can take back the Brain-Eating Magic Bugs and spare your brain."

"..."

This guy is really annoying...

Looking at the thin man who was full of malice and obviously gained great pleasure from teasing himself, Hearing Li Ang's cheeks twitched, and he honestly closed his mouth. Forget it... teased is teased. Although this guy's mouth is a bit smelly, he did take out an anomalous object specifically targeting the Dream World. Just based on this thing, he can be counted as the MVP of this operation. As long as the people of the Kingdom are fine, it doesn't matter if he is scolded a few times.

*Hiss*... This kid's ability is not simple...

Watching Hearing Li Ang, who poked the beetle on his shoulder and breathed a sigh of relief, then pretended not to hear and ignored himself, the Scorpio Branch Director narrowed his eyes.

According to the anomalous object records reported by that stinky woman, the core anomalous object of Hearing Li Ang·Laien, a Level 3 cleaner, is named 【Forced Information Acquisition】, which can forcibly obtain part of the information of anomalous objects through touch.

When touching weaker anomalous objects, the information obtained is very perfect, but the more powerful the anomalous object touched, the less information can be obtained, or even no information can be obtained at all. It is just a fairly good auxiliary ability.

However, although 【Dream-Eating Alien Beetle】 has no lethality, is only special to Dream World creatures, and has restrictions such as only being able to be used once in a lifetime, the numbering order of 【Dream-Eating Alien Beetle】 is very far back, only getting the number 057.

But the status of this thing itself is not low at all. If it hasn't crossed the threshold of the True God level, it is impossible to drive the mother beetle. It is a genuine True God-level anomalous object.

But facing this level of thing, this kid just poked it with his finger, and his tense body actually relaxed. If he guessed correctly, he should have identified his lie about "Brain-Eating Magic Bugs" by obtaining the information of 【Dream-Eating Alien Beetle】.

Being able to obtain the information of a True God-level anomalous object with just a light touch, the status of his so-called 【Forced Information Acquisition】 ability is probably much higher than what that stinky woman reported!

"What's wrong?"

Finding that the thin man turned his head and started looking at himself up and down, Hearing Li Ang blinked vigilantly, but still asked politely:

"Mr. Edward, do you have any questions you want to ask me?"

"..."

Questions, of course, and quite a few.

Staring at Hearing Li Ang's eyes, he found that his eyes were becoming friendlier than at the beginning. The thin man pondered for a while, suspecting that he might already know the cost of using 【Dream-Eating Alien Beetle】, so his attitude toward himself had improved slightly.

So, comprehensively, the anomalous object he brought with him has a very high status. Although he is still a bit green and has insufficient defenses, and cannot hide his own emotions, he seems to have prospects for the future...

No! He is already pretty good now!

After weighing Hearing Li Ang's resume, the Scorpio Branch Director was somewhat surprised to find that what that nightmare said before didn't seem to be all bullshit.

Not to mention anything else, this kid has only joined the Cleaning Bureau for two months, and he already has a medium-to-high level of infection among Level 3 cleaners. It is estimated that with another month or two of cultivation, he will be able to touch the threshold of Level 2 cleaners.

And he also has records of single-handedly retiring holy spirits, exposing Director Aquarius's conspiracy, and surviving in the hands of Directors. This level is already outstanding for a newcomer!

After re-measuring Hearing Li Ang's "value," the Scorpio Branch Director pondered for a while, then reached out and rubbed his stiff face, patted Hearing Li Ang on the shoulder with a calm expression, and said with a slightly kind attitude:

"Nothing... I just thought about it and found that what that nightmare said was quite reasonable. For example, for a cleaner, the most important thing is not the strength in front of you, but the courage and guts to face the enemy directly."

"You knew you might be permanently enslaved by the King of Nightmares, yet you still dared to stay and fight side by side with me. It is indeed very remarkable. What I said before that you were a burden was a bit too much."

"..."
