Chapter 336: Entering (Please Subscribe)

Xiaduoen steam train station.

The platform was more crowded than usual, mostly with citizens hearing news of the "Sleep Disease" and fleeing in a hurry.

Compared to the bustling crowds, those getting off the train appeared very sparse.

Among this sparse stream of people, one group appeared particularly eye-catching.

They were men and women, surrounding a tall woman in her thirties wearing eyeshadow and clothes decorated with various metals, appearing very mechanical and avant-garde.

As they walked out of the station, a gentleman who had been waiting for a long time walked over, took off his hat, and saluted: "Is this Ms. Jiade? I have already prepared a house for you, please follow me."

Ms. Jiade set down her coffee cup, as if lost in thought: "Could the Secret of the Sunset be related to this suddenly appearing 'Law' of slumber?"

Inside the apartment.

For some time now, the Sleep Curse has been spreading rapidly through Xiaduoen, as if it were contagious.

"You need not be too nervous. I have brought an 'Angel-level' Strange Object from the school with me this time. I will use its 'Law' to grant you protection... Only the power of a 'Law' can counter another 'Law'!"

A carriage stopped voluntarily in front of Aaron: "Kind sir, do you need a ride?"

"Pursuing the Secret of the Sunset is the highest tenet of our school. According to divination, a key clue will appear here."

Jiade, the 'Lamp Bearer' of the Sunset School, said in a mechanical tone: "I need all the latest intelligence regarding Xiaduoen Gang, especially about that 'Nightmare'."

Under the gray, misty sky were the various buildings of Xiaduoen.

Aaron, in the state of a 'Spirit of Falsehood', had to put on the skin of 'Aokelaier' again, suddenly feeling a bit surprised: "Eh? The status of the 'Spirit of Falsehood' actually almost destroyed the door on the card... Could it be... after opening the Fourth Primordial Substance, I have finally begun to slightly control the status of the 'Spirit of Falsehood'? My guess was indeed correct!"

Aaron got into the carriage, his voice unhurried: "To the 'Shipwrecked Place' auction house!"

After all, 'Aokelaier' had made quite a splash in the 'Lecture Hall Tragedy' and was already registered with major secret societies and the kingdom, so he still could not be too high-profile.

"Relax... The kingdom will surely be able to handle contamination that doesn't even reach the 'Unknown' level; they might even have experience with it."

The market was depressed, a large number of shops were closed, and prices were soaring...

Aaron offered a word of comfort, then suddenly sensed something and took out the invitation letter he had obtained earlier.

Hmm, when the time comes, with the help of the 'Spirit of Falsehood', it might not be necessary to completely destroy the Cursed Object 'Ring of Power of the Green Forest'; one could completely attempt to separate the characteristics directly.

'Cannot let the body enter, only in a dream? Interesting!'

Beside the coachman, that doll-like little girl Laya even smiled at Aaron.

"Praise the Spirit of Falsehood!" Liliyat whispered a prayer, watching Aaron walk into his bedroom and close the door.

"Fear... is spreading."

'By constantly pulling in people from reality, is it constructing it to be more real?'

There were few wanderers on the streets, like walking corpses.

The group boarded a carriage and stopped in front of a large villa in the city center.

There were even rumors that the Invis Kingdom had already mobilized its garrison, preparing to blockade the entire Xiaduoen.

He turned to Liliyat and said: "I will voluntarily enter that nightmare in a moment... You don't need to worry about me, but be careful not to enter the room and disturb me, otherwise you will likely also be tainted by that 'Nightmare Law'. Although for my Lord, this kind of contamination can be solved with a single grace, we should not trouble my Lord."

'This is... the dream of the entire city!'

Aaron muttered, closed his eyes, and seemed to fall into a dream.

Lying comfortably on the large bed, Aaron took out the pitch-black, business-card-style invitation letter.

'Shipwrecked Place auction house?'

Liliyat looked at someone on the street who suddenly fell down and fell fast asleep while walking, her face full of fear.

Ms. Jiade, who was sitting on the sofa sipping coffee, saw her expression gradually become grave: "It is not a Sleep Curse... but a constantly spreading 'Law'. This city has become very dangerous."

The Sunset School focuses on the pure 'Light' path, so of course, they are not short of Diviners!

"Of course..."

A trace of his Spirituality overflowed, spreading onto the pitch-black card in his hand.

Suddenly, a vortex seemed to emerge from the card, opening a special door.

"Alright!" The coachman seemed to know this name very well and started driving the carriage without the slightest hesitation.

This forced many locals to give up everything and flee to other places or even colonies!

Being able to see them here meant that in reality, they had already been infected by the 'Nightmare Law' and were in the midst of sleep.

"In order to pursue the brilliance, we are willing to offer everything."

Aaron's eyes were slightly deep as he looked at the coachman and his daughter, silent in his heart.

The prominent features like purple eyes all disappeared, and the gorgeous noble attire on his body also turned into a modern gentleman's three-piece suit.

In fact, Aaron was prepared to destroy this tool spirit voluntarily once Liliyat advanced to the Fourth Primordial Substance, allowing it to obtain eternal peace.

"What a bother..."

After restraining the status of the 'Spirit of Falsehood' and voluntarily putting on a layer of clothing to cover it, the cracks on the card stopped expanding, and the 'Evil Spirit' directly sensed a connection similar to a beacon in the Spirit World.

Regarding his inability to fully control the 'Spirit of Falsehood', he attributed the reason to the large gap in status between his physical body and his Spirit Body.

At the same time, in several other corners of the city, different figures emerged.

Not far away, one could see a pitch-black sea, and the surrounding high-rise buildings looked slightly dilapidated but stood firm.

When they walked into the villa and closed the door, the gentleman's expression changed, and he bowed to 'Ms. Jiade' again, his expression extremely devout, like a fanatic who had seen a deity: "Great 'Lamp Bearer', welcome to this city! I am the school's local guardian—Sidi-fen!"

Now it seems, this is another piece of evidence!

'When I reach the level of an 'Immortal', perhaps I can fully master the 'Spirit of Falsehood' and make it manifest voluntarily?'

As the local intelligence officer, Sidi-fen just closed his eyes to recall, and then repeated the intelligence piece by piece.

The other members of the Sunset School, led by Sidi-fen, bowed one after another, their expressions devout.

Aaron manipulated 'Aokelaier' and wiped his face.

With the help of this connection, Aokelaier's figure flashed and vanished in an instant.

The next moment, cracks appeared on the card in his hand, as if it were about to shatter from being unable to withstand the pressure.

"Is this the Legendary 'Shipwrecked Place'?"

A military special agent muttered, "According to the information provided by the Investigation Bureau, it rises from the deep sea every so often, and it holds many Ancient Secrecy buried within..."

The second update will still be late; I am working hard to adjust my state.
