Chapter 42: Dragon of Nightmare

The Elf King utilized the unknown Authority he possessed, and the Ancient Sun God made a reasonable response on his side.

The eyes within that Shadow Curtain opened, and the aura of "Fallen" caused the ocean composed of sunlight to undergo a mutation.

A pitch-black and viscous aura of the Fallen emerged from thin air, merging into the sunlight, causing that pure-colored sea of sunlight to become dark and profound.

The Sun, which had always been the nemesis of evil, did not Purify this "Fallen" aura, but instead fused with it, turning into a profound and dark ocean.

"Chaos Sea?!" Chumen was shocked; that profound ocean was truly somewhat similar to the Chaos Sea.

"If one were to add the Dragon's 'Mind', the Tyrant's 'Ocean', and the White Tower's 'Knowledge', it would be even more similar..."

As expected, everything had traces to follow.

The Elf King and the Ancient Sun God were once again in a stalemate; the Elf King was unable to break it, and the Ancient Sun God was also guarding against other Ancient Gods.

This battle would likely last for a long time, until all eyes were drawn here.

It was likely that when the Giant Race sent troops to attack the Elf Divine Kingdom, the Giant King and the Phoenix were in a standoff, and Chumen was facing the natural disaster, actions were also being taken in certain places.

This timing was chosen extremely cleverly; the Dragon of Imagination had gone outside the Elf sea area, and even the Demon Monarch was crawling out of the Abyss due to the turmoil in the sea area.

No one was paying attention to anything outside the God War anymore.

This was a human city-state outside the City of Miracles.

Looking up here, one could see that City of Miracles suspended in the air, never landing.

This was a genuine miracle, making the humans in this region worship the Dragon fanatically, extending into a quite brilliant Dragon culture.

However, the gods did not care; in the eyes of the gods, humans were too insignificant, and their worship had no meaning in the eyes of the Dragon.

Under the existence of the Dragon of Imagination, the entire Dragon Race's need for faith was reduced to a minimum, and humans had no value in their eyes either.

The gaze of the Dragon of Imagination never fell here; occasionally, when a Dragon flew past, it would only sweep a few glances with the gaze of someone counting the number of food items.

Occasionally, when someone offered a sacrifice, the Dragon would land on the ground and swallow a few "sacrifices" carrying fear or surprise.

If the mental state was good, the Dragon would respond, listen to the humans' requests, and complete some simple tasks.

If the mental state was poor, the Dragon would bring down calamities—frost, Storm, fire; the more the humans feared, the more grand the sacrificial ceremony might be, and more humans praying at the same time also helped the Dragon stabilize its own state.

And on the edge of the radiation range of the City of Miracles, there was a city-state that even other Dragons would not approach.

This was the territory of the Dragon of Nightmare, Herabogen.

The Dragon of Nightmare was quite special even among the Dragon Race, and its personality was even more vicious than ordinary evil dragons, taking pleasure in Mind Domination of living beings, making them act according to its will.

These living beings were naturally very difficult to notice and unable to break free, believing that these were their own thoughts, and the final outcome would be the most terrifying and horrific nightmare.

"Roar!" A silent roar resounded in the Collective Subconscious Sea of everyone in this Nightmare City.

A wondrous power echoed, causing everyone's thoughts to begin to Frenzy, gradually forgetting their inner thoughts, and instead preparing for a carnival of dancing with the Monster.

"Fall asleep." Before the classic drama of father killing son and son killing father could be staged, dots of starlight fell from the starry sky that resembled a night curtain, causing everyone to fall into a deep sleep and obtain a moment of peace.

"Who!?" A dragon roar resounded throughout the city, and a dragon head stretched out from that illusory subconscious ocean.

A human figure was slowly outlined; it was a beautiful figure, wearing a dark and brilliant black robe, wearing a hood, and lowering a light veil to cover the eyebrows and eyes.

"I know you!" The dragon head looked at the Hidden Angel who had slowly appeared, a dazzling light flashed in the dragon eyes, and then it spoke, "The Hidden sect among humans!"

"But these are all fake; I know your true origin." The Dragon of Nightmare exposed the origin of the Hidden Angel, "You are an Angel under the Goddess of Misfortune!"

"Misfortune betrayed the Demon Wolf to seize the greatest benefits..." The Dragon of Nightmare repeated the events of that year in a chanting tone.

"Why have you come to my territory!" In an instant, the Dragon of Nightmare shrank into the Collective Subconscious Sea, its dragon eyes staring tightly at the Hidden Angel, with a fierce light flickering within them.

As a Sequence 1 of the Dragon Pathway, it did not lack any of the characteristics of this Pathway.

It observed the Hidden Angel, looking for an opportunity for a Must-Kill.

"Do you want to replace Misfortune and cooperate with my Father God?" The Dragon of Nightmare controlled the human closest to the Hidden Angel to speak.

"Misfortune will have to face the Giant Race sooner or later, and only we Dragons can confront the Giants."

After saying this sentence, the controlled human collapsed, and another person stood up.

"You want to cooperate with us to fight against the Giants?"

"This is a very reasonable choice; Misfortune has grasped the only chance of survival!"

The Dragon of Nightmare was constantly changing its position in the Collective Subconscious Sea, and also constantly changing the human body it was controlling.

This was cautious enough; except for its Father God, absolutely no god could lock onto its position.

And the opponent was only a Sequence 2 Angel.

"The Dragon Pathway is indeed powerful." The Hidden Angel spoke for the first time, full of admiration, and had a certain agreement with a certain point of view of Chumen, "You are worthy of being a 'Writer'."

"Thinking so much."

"Mind Domination" had no use at all!

The Dragon of Nightmare's dragon eyes flashed, and the many runes on its body shone; it stared tightly at the Hidden Angel, and invisible power surged.

Every sentence before was guidance, guiding the psychology of this Hidden Angel; this was the power of the "Writer" to guide history, but some kind of invisible power blocked this suggestion.

The Dragon of Nightmare's dragon head in the Collective Subconscious Sea shook; it had already moved away from the Nightmare City.

The Dragon of Nightmare had made full preparations the moment the Hidden Angel appeared; the one who spoke at the beginning was already its virtual personality.

Afterwards, its true body was hidden in the deep realm of the Collective Subconscious Sea.

Even while the virtual personality was speaking just now, it was also making various arrangements; the ability of the "Writer" allowed it to achieve various "coincidences".

For example, Herabogen above the City of Miracles coincidentally discovered that it was not in the City of Miracles, began to search, and looked towards the Nightmare City.

Once a battle broke out here, Herabogen would quickly gather the Dragons of the entire City of Miracles and head here!

Or, for example, a certain human in the Nightmare City would unconsciously shout the honorific name of its Father God after waking up, attracting the gaze of its Father God.

Such things had already ensured its safety.

"So, are you ready?" The Hidden Angel spoke again; this time, its gaze looked directly at the Collective Subconscious Sea, seemingly able to penetrate its obstacles and reach the deepest part!
