Chapter 3890: Dark Moon Nightmare

In the area where the Wolf Grave was located, cyan moonlight drifted through the graveyard like fireflies in the night, condensing into particles of light. Su Xiao grasped the 【Silver Moon Blade】 floating in mid-air.

The upgraded 【Silver Moon Blade】 was still a small, guardless knife, only more refined. Its overall lines were symmetrical, and while the entire body was silver, it bore faint bloodstains. After all, this was a sacrificial-type equipment, so a sense of ferocity was normal. It was only because of Su Xiao's identity as a Law Breaker that he could use it without cost.

Grasping the hilt of the 【Silver Moon Blade】, he pressed the blade against his right palm and sliced down. There was no scene of blood splattering; even though the 【Silver Moon Blade】 had clearly cut through the flesh of his palm, it erupted with brilliant moonlight.

The reason he was using the 【Silver Moon Blade】 now was to test the equipment's fourth bonus: "Greatly increase your Charisma attribute, with an increase magnitude equivalent to 50% of your Strength attribute."

The first three bonuses were all very powerful—Sharpness, Health, and Absolute Luck. Only this fourth one caused Charisma to drop by 26 points... *Cough*. Some time ago, he had resisted the Blood Night too fiercely, causing Su Xiao's blood energy to nearly boil while surrounded by dark creatures. No, it was that after the blood energy surged outward, the surrounding dark creatures weren't just being eroded by the blood energy; as they were eroded, embers of blood energy appeared on their wounds. The sight of those sparks spreading around their wounds caused many dark creatures to roll on the ground, howling in pain.

Resisting the Blood Night was certainly satisfying, but with his blood energy boiling, his eyes glowing red, and even the surrounding dark creatures whimpering and retreating in fear, Su Xiao's Charisma attribute successfully slid from -26 to -27 points. Just thinking about how the dark creatures were so terrified they whimpered and retreated, that 1-point Charisma drop was not undeserved.

Su Xiao's "luck was not bad"; the first time he activated the 【Silver Moon Blade】, he triggered the Charisma bonus.

【You have received the buff from the Silver Moon energy. Your Charisma attribute will increase by 366 points for 366 minutes (Bonus ratio is Strength attribute × 0.5, duration is Strength attribute × 0.5/minutes).】

The first three bonuses lasted 30 minutes each, so the Charisma bonus duration was quite long, totaling over six hours. He checked his personal profile.

Real Strength: 732 points.

Real Agility: 732 points.

Real Stamina: 777 points.

Real Intelligence: 732 points.

Charisma: 366/-27 points.

Seeing the state of his Charisma attribute, Su Xiao's brows furrowed slightly. For a moment, he couldn't figure out what kind of situation this was. If the bonus succeeded, the -27 points were right there; if it failed, there was the 366-point value in front of the blood-red -27 font. Could it be that he now had two types of Charisma attributes?

Soon, Su Xiao figured out what was going on with his current Charisma attribute. In short, the "Silver Moon Blade" bonus had succeeded, but not entirely. The judgment level of the -27 Charisma attribute was so high that it was no longer something that could be offset by simply increasing a positive Charisma value.

After Su Xiao independently created the "Negative Charisma Attribute · Basic Passive · Blood Awakening" ability, his negative Charisma attribute had been fully notarized by the Reincarnation Paradise.

Simply put, his current -27 Charisma attribute, in terms of judgment, was roughly equivalent to the judgment tier derived from 780–790 points of Real Charisma.

Even if Su Xiao truly had a way to increase his Real Charisma by 790 points, it wouldn't immediately raise his Charisma to 0. Instead, a result could only be reached after the "-27 Charisma attribute" and the "790 Real Charisma attribute" had clashed.

To put it more intuitively, looking across the major Paradise factions, there were plenty of people who could reach 800 or even over 1,000 Real Charisma, or even break through 1,500 after ascending to the Strongest tier. As for those who could develop their Charisma into a negative number, while rare, there had been some in the past. But looking across all Paradise factions, he was the only one who could reach -27 Charisma.

Because of this, Su Xiao's -27 Charisma attribute was a key object of judgment regarding negative Charisma for the Tree of the Void, Reincarnation Paradise, Apocalypse Paradise, Death Paradise, Holy Light Paradise, Sanctuary Paradise, and Watcher Paradise.

"Exemption Badge (★★★★★): After using this badge, you can exempt the debuff effects brought about by Charisma, Willpower, and Luck attributes being below 0 (effective within -50 points)."

This was the "Exemption Badge" Su Xiao currently had in effect. When he first obtained it, he once thought there had been a powerhouse whose Charisma broke through -50. Later, he realized he had misunderstood; this thing... was tailor-made for him by the Reincarnation Paradise.

Therefore, before he entered the Reincarnation Paradise, "Exemption Badge (★★)... (effective within -20 points)" was the original limit of the "Exemption Badge."

It was precisely because of Su Xiao's unprecedented -27 Charisma that his Charisma attribute's judgment tier was mysteriously high, which led to the current "Charisma: 366/-27 points."

A more intuitive understanding is that if other contractors were to use detection equipment to probe Su Xiao's attributes now, they would see his Charisma as 366 points. However, this Charisma value was more like a disguise; -27 was his true Charisma attribute, which he had temporarily hidden.

What was the use of this? The use was massive. From the First Tier to his current Strongest level, Su Xiao didn't know how many benefits he had missed out on from "Friendly Factions." It wasn't that he didn't want to try, but when characters from "Friendly Factions" saw him, those with courage were hostile, and those without courage were simply plunged into despair.

Su Xiao had once encountered a mother and daughter from a "Friendly Faction" in a low-to-mid-tier world. He knew very clearly that these two could trigger a quest, but after they saw him, they just huddled together and cried. Anyone who didn't know better would think he was about to commit murder.

In reality, Su Xiao had just slaughtered a group of bandits right in front of the mother and daughter. Logically, even if this savior had red light in his pupils, his body and blade were covered in blood, the surroundings were littered with bandit parts, and he was holding the head of the last bandit with one hand, forcing the bandit to spit out information in a less-than-civilized way while begging for a quick death—yet as the savior, after the mother and daughter got over being scared out of their wits, they got up and ran, not even saying thank you. This was truly the decline of the world.

Since then, Su Xiao discovered that his negative Charisma attribute had caused him to miss out on many opportunities to reap benefits from "Friendly Faction" characters.

Now that the "Silver Moon Blade" had this buff state, dealing with "Friendly Factions" was no problem. Although characters from "Friendly Factions" were resourceful, the proportion of old schemers was very low. Conversely, the factions Su Xiao dealt with in this world—the Twilight City Monarch Faction, Twilight City Great Library, Soul Academy, and the God Cult—none of their styles of conduct were human-like. They were either monsters or existences even more terrifying than monsters.

Su Xiao had previously prepared to go to "Dawn City" on the Southern Continent to take a look. It was located on the east side of Twilight City, a large city under the pitch-black sky wall. Unfortunately, when they heard Su Xiao was coming, they nearly exploded on the spot. The implication was as good as saying: "If you, this blood-energy human-shaped monster, dare to come and destroy our Dawn City, we will fight you to the death."

The fear and determination in their tone showed just how much "Dawn City" dreaded Su Xiao. It seemed that in the eyes of the City Lord and high-level officials of "Dawn City," Su Xiao was an existence like an ultimate villain boss.

If this trip to the Dark Moon Nightmare went smoothly, he could go take a look at "Dawn City" on his way back. It was said that the central area of the main city there was a safe zone notarized by the Apocalypse Paradise.

After leaving the Wolf Grave, Su Xiao walked toward the center of Black Wudao. From a great distance, he saw a stone house looming in the black fog. Seeing this stone house, he felt a sense of familiarity; he seemed to have seen this large stone house somewhere before.

This large stone house was built entirely of black rock and covered with a thatched roof. He didn't know if the thatch was special or if it had been drenched by some kind of special rain, but the thatched roof was both pitch-black and exuded a certain oily sheen, as if it had been coated with a layer of petroleum.

Su Xiao, who had mastered advanced Abyssology, naturally knew what was going on. Only in areas subjected to severe abyssal erosion would buildings look like this after rain. This level of abyssal erosion, even for a world of the rank of the Blazing Sun Star, should not be able to withstand it.

Furthermore, Black Wudao was carried on the shoulders of a World Giant. How could it be subjected to this level of abyssal erosion?

Thinking of this, Su Xiao turned and walked back toward the Wolf Grave. Half an hour later, he stood before the tombstone of the former Silver Moon Wolf King. All other Moon Wolf graves had greatswords, but only the Wolf King's grave had a tombstone. He pressed one hand onto the tombstone. The next instant, darkness encroached, causing the crystal layer on his right hand to turn pitch-black instantly.

*Snap. * Su Xiao controlled the crystal layer on his right hand to shatter. As the last inheritor of the Law Breaker faction, and an inheritor separated by an era, there were some secrets he didn't know. Coupled with the fact that his guide was Ma Wen Waltz and the remnant soul of the previous Law Breaker he often contacted was Green Gillian, it was normal that he didn't know the secrets regarding the Moon Wolves.

All Moon Wolves were sent back to Black Wudao by their kin after death. Was it to return to their hometown to sleep? The answer seemed not to be so. For the Moon Wolves who spent their entire lives resisting the Abyss and saving those in despair under abyssal erosion, their true destination after death was not a scenic wilderness, but to continue suppressing the spread of the Abyss.

What these hundreds of Moon Wolves were suppressing after death was not this Black Wudao, but the Abyssal Hole wrapped within this island—a very special and particularly active Abyssal Hole.

This Abyssal Hole was like a black hole, periodically devouring world power. When it reached a certain point in time, it would begin to erupt with abyssal energy frantically. Don't look at the fact that the Abyssal Hole was much smaller than an Abyssal Passage; the eruption volume of abyssal energy from this special Abyssal Hole was no less than that of a super-large Abyssal Passage.

Even more terrifying was that, compared to an Abyssal Passage fixed in one place, this Abyssal Hole would begin to move after night fell. Not to mention top-tier worlds, even Transcendent Worlds had a high probability of facing disaster if they encountered this kind of "Special Abyssal Hole." Based on the overall strength of the Blazing Sun Star, it should have been completely eroded by the Abyss long ago due to this "Special Abyssal Hole."

The World Giant carrying Black Wudao while walking at night and the hundreds of Moon Wolf graves in the Wolf Grave—if Su Xiao hadn't guessed wrong, these were the two points that neutralized the terrifying disaster caused by this "Special Abyssal Hole."

This should have been an affair of the First Era. The Sun God Clan and the Moon Wolves used all means to seal this "Special Abyssal Hole." But not long after, as this "Special Abyssal Hole" moved, the seal quickly lost its effectiveness. A movable seal and a fixed seal were completely different concepts.

A common analogy is that a fixed seal is equivalent to having an electric wire, connecting an appliance to a fixed power source on the wall with a wire and plug. Conversely, a movable seal is an appliance powered by a disposable battery. The standby time of the two is worlds apart; the former can last as long as the appliance can withstand it, while the latter runs out of power before long.

The method the Sun God Clan and the Moon Wolves came up with was to build a floating island that moved in sync with this "Special Abyssal Hole" and set up a large number of seals on the island. Thus, Black Wudao was created.

The floating island plan failed. As the price, the last World Giant of the Star Realm shouldered Black Wudao. Every night, he carried Black Wudao and moved along the original trajectory of the "Special Abyssal Hole," doing his best to make this "Special Abyssal Hole" tend toward stability.

The World Giant absorbed the earth vein energy with his own body to supply the sealing hub of Black Wudao, all because the Sun God Clan had once saved this World Giant from the hands of the Lord of the Old Days, regardless of the risk of bringing about a huge disaster. The majestic Sun King at the time even allowed him to live in the back forest of Blazing Sun City. For a World Giant who loved nature, there was no better place to live.

The World Giant never forgot the Sun King's kindness, so he carried Black Wudao from the First Era until now. The tattered armor all over his body was not imprisonment by the Sun God Clan, but protective armor to avoid abyssal energy erosion on the World Giant as much as possible.

The Moon Wolves established the Wolf Grave on Black Wudao instead of a lightless zone with small Abyssal Passages to prevent this "Special Abyssal Hole" from truly erupting with abyssal energy. Facts proved that the suppression of the Wolf Grave was very stable.

But no matter how special an "Abyssal Hole" was, it would eventually decay. This was the essential difference between an "Abyssal Hole" and an "Abyssal Passage."

Su Xiao took out a jar-like container, poured pure white fluid that looked like crystal into it, then took out a pointer that looked like a watch movement and stuck it onto the Wolf King's tombstone. Wisps of black fog seeped into the pointer, and he placed the pointer into the pure white fluid.

The pointer floating on the surface of the pure white fluid turned with a *click, click, click*. Su Xiao followed the direction of the pointer. Before long, he arrived at the very center of the Wolf Grave area.

This was a small circular plaza. In the center was a sculpture of a Moon Wolf. Half-human, half-wolf, the Moon Wolf in a combat state held a greatsword in one hand. Sitting on the shoulder of this six-meter-tall Moon Wolf was a figure.

Outsiders might not know, but Su Xiao knew this was the previous Law Breaker, Kether Shuna, who was Green Gillian's master. It was not strange for Kether Shuna to appear in this image; the Moon Wolves of the Void Second Era all particularly respected this Law Breaker.

After Su Xiao had positioned it for nearly half an hour, he took the pointer out of the pure white fluid and released his thumb and forefinger. The pointer disc fell freely, stopping suddenly half a meter from the ground.

Su Xiao had Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang and Baham retreat. He took out a special filter mask, put it on, and poured the pure white fluid from the metal container onto the pointer disc. These pure white fluids spread in the air, gradually outlining a slowly rotating vortex.

A lock plate composed of spell formations appeared in front of Su Xiao. Although he didn't have the key to this lock plate, he constructed a "Blade of Sealing," which represented the Law Breaker faction's means of opening seals, which might be able to open the seal set up by the Moon Wolves.

Su Xiao twisted the "Blade of Sealing." Sure enough, the relationship of blood-oath allies was truly reliable; the sealing lock plate in front opened.

*Crack! Crack... *

As the sealing lock plate opened, cracks constantly appeared in the surrounding space. An Abyssal Hole appeared in front—it was precisely the "Special Abyssal Hole" that had lasted from the First Era until now.

Su Xiao took out various devices and materials. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang and Baham both stepped forward, getting busy with him. A full two hours later, he threw a metal device into the "Special Abyssal Hole." The next second, the "Special Abyssal Hole" suddenly contracted.

Between his ten fingers, he held many spirit shadow threads as thick as his little finger. Taking advantage of the contraction of the "Special Abyssal Hole," he pulled with both hands.

*Sizzle~*

All the spirit shadow threads in their toughest state completely stitched the "Special Abyssal Hole" shut. Afterward, these spirit shadow threads melted, completely melting this Abyssal Hole to death.

After checking, Su Xiao felt quite satisfied. The advanced Abyssology he had invested tens of thousands of Space-Time Power into was truly not mastered in vain. If it were before, even though this "Special Abyssal Hole" had experienced the long years of two and a half eras, he still wouldn't have had a way. But now, he had completely solved this Abyssal Passage.

The surrounding space gradually calmed down, and various sealing spell formations that had lost their targets collapsed one after another. The black fog that had always shrouded this island turned from pitch-black to a thin mist.

*"Awoo~!"*

A howl that sounded both real and illusory came. Whether it was the Wolf King or other Moon Wolves, black smoke drifted from the tombstones and greatswords in front of their graves. The originally dark and cold Wolf Grave now had a sense of tranquility that allowed souls to rest.

Just then, Su Xiao felt the Black Wudao beneath his feet shake, followed by a low, rumbling sound. If one were to look down from a higher vantage point, they would find that it was the World Giant carrying Black Wudao lifting it off his shoulder, because he discovered that the Abyssal Hole that had always existed had actually disappeared.

The World Giant released Black Wudao. As a floating island, Black Wudao drifted on its own in the high sky. One could see the tattered armor and chains on the World Giant cracking one after another, and the long nails piercing his body also cracked. These nails were the handiwork of Twilight City's high-level officials at the end of the Second Era, fearing the World Giant would leave.

If it weren't for the sake of the Sun King, the World Giant could have leveled Twilight City. But he wouldn't do that; this was the former Blazing Sun City, the city built by his benefactor, the Sun King.

With all restraints removed, the World Giant didn't remove the helmet on his head. Although this helmet was already tattered, it was a gift from his friend, the Nun—the one who had once stood in front of him and said to the Lord of the Old Days:

"Ancient alien existence, what are you planning to do to my friend? This is... Blazing Sun Star."

The World Giant raised his head to look at the blood moon in the sky. The old friends of the past were no longer there. He lowered his head to look at Black Wudao, leaning down to look at the Wolf Grave area on the island.

In the small plaza at the center of the Wolf Grave area, Su Xiao looked up at the World Giant. This giant was too huge; when the other party leaned over to look, it was as if his head had replaced the firmament. Fortunately, there was no malice in the huge eyes beneath the helmet.

*"A... sh... go..."*

The World Giant's voice was very long and deafening.

【Prompt: You have become friends with the World Giant Ashgo. When you request help from the World Giant Ashgo, the World Giant Ashgo will help you unconditionally.】

【Prompt: Initial favorability of all Giant races toward you +50 points.】

【You have received a gift from this world: 1.5 units of Star Origin.】

【Star Origin: Can be sold to the Reincarnation Paradise, 5,000 ounces of Space-Time Power per standard unit.】

【Prompt: This item cannot be traded, cannot be discarded, cannot be transferred, but can be sold to the Reincarnation Paradise.】

【You have sold 1.5 units of Star Origin.】

【You have received 7,500 ounces of Space-Time Power.】

【Your Reincarnation Paradise reputation has increased by 1,950 points, now at: 54,120 points.】

The World Giant above straightened up and strode toward the distance. At this moment, dawn had just arrived. The World Giant came to the vicinity of a sprawling mountain range and lay down in a vast basin. Before long, his snoring was like thunder. It seemed that the closing of the "Special Abyssal Hole" made him feel a relaxation from the bottom of his heart.

Su Xiao walked toward the large stone house from before and stopped in front of it. The more he looked at this large stone house, the more familiar it felt. He came to the door and pushed it open. The stone house was about a hundred square meters. Under the erosion of time, all the furnishings here had turned to ash. In the empty large stone house, there was only a recliner and a person on the recliner.

This person was wrapped tightly, looking very bloated. He held a long wooden stick that was thick at the top and thin at the bottom. Most special were those eyes—dark yellow, turbid, and covered with cracks.

Seeing this figure, memories of the Sun Holy Land, Chilliard, and the desolate village on Magic Spirit Star surged into his mind. In the large stone house in that desolate village, Su Xiao had met a scholar named Remans. He didn't have much interaction with the other party, and at that time, the other party had reached the end of his rope.

Su Xiao knew why he had felt the large stone house was familiar just now; it was because this large stone house was exactly the same as the one in the desolate village of the Sun Holy Land on Magic Spirit Star. Even the recliner and the person on the recliner inside were particularly similar.

"You have come, Law Breaker."

The bloated old man on the recliner spoke.

Baham flew over and landed on Su Xiao's shoulder, asking, "Are you also... Remans?"

"The one you saw in the Sun Holy Land was an avatar of mine. He is different from me; he had his own life and struggles. Only after he died could I read his entire life. So, we are meeting for the first time."

The Sun Great Scholar Remans said in a hoarse voice.

"Law Breaker, how many Sun Source Stones did you obtain?"

"Two."

Su Xiao answered straightforwardly; this was not a secret.

"In the... depths of the nightmare, there is an altar. We will meet there."

The Sun Great Scholar Remans raised his hand, meaning to hand the long wooden stick that was thick at the top and thin at the bottom to Su Xiao. After he took the long wooden stick, embers and sparks ignited on the Sun Great Scholar Remans' body, and then he exploded with a *boom*, turning into sparks along with the recliner beneath him, gradually extinguishing in the air.

【Prompt: You have successfully met the Sun Great Scholar Remans.】

Seeing this prompt, Su Xiao knew the status of the Sun Great Scholar Remans in this world. Someone who triggered a prompt just by meeting was either a super-hardcore character at their peak or closely related to the main quest. He felt it was the latter.

Su Xiao looked at the innermost wall. This wall was pitch-black, and a black stone plate was embedded at a height of about 1.2 meters from the ground. It was empty inside, exactly the same as the scene when he first met Dudu Gugu.

Coming to the stone plate, he used the long wooden stick in his hand to knock on the stone plate.

"..."

No sound came from the wall behind the stone plate. Seeing this, Su Xiao used the scholar's wooden stick to knock on the stone plate again.

"..."

【Prompt: You have successfully awakened "Dudu Gugu." You can conduct friendly trades with "Dudu Gugu." "Dudu Gugu" is a friendly unit notarized by the Tree of the Void.】

【Prompt: Because your Charisma attribute is too low, at -27 points, this Charisma attribute seriously exceeds "Dudu Gugu's" cognition and does not reach the minimum value for trading with "Dudu Gugu." However, because of the friendship between "Dudu Gugu" and you, "Dudu Gugu" has ignored the warning prompt from the Tree of the Void and continues to trade with you.】

"Dudu."

A clear voice came from inside the wall.

"Gugu."

Several fluorescent white small bone hands reached out from the wall. These bone hands were very small, close to the size of a baby's hands.

"Bone, bone, bone."

Dudu Gugu's clear voice came from inside the wall again. This was Dudu Gugu's prompt and also the rule for trading with Dudu Gugu.

Su Xiao placed the 29 pieces of 【Corroded God Bone】 he had obtained in the Land of God Exile onto the black stone plate.

One by one, 【Soul Crystal Essence】 fell onto the stone plate, totaling 15 pieces. This 【Corroded God Bone】 was quite valuable.

"Dudu, Gugu."

It could be seen that Dudu Gugu was quite happy.

According to the trading rules, this time it was Su Xiao's turn. He could choose any item he had and place it on the tray. He took out the 【Corroded Beast Arm Bone Fragment】, which was obtained by killing the Beast God.

"Dudu, Gugu."

One of Dudu Gugu's small bone hands picked up the 【Corroded Beast Arm Bone Fragment】, and then scorching spark patterns appeared on this God Bone, scalding Dudu Gugu's small bone hand until it shivered, and it hurriedly let go. Several other small bone hands fanned the scalded small bone hand for a while before this sudden flurry of activity ended.

*Plop~*

A sealed bottle fell onto the stone plate. It looked like a portion of Source Matter. One could only say that this little guy Dudu Gugu was full of hidden depths.

Su Xiao raised his hand to take the unknown Source Matter wrapped in resin. As soon as he touched it, he raised his hand in pain, and a prompt appeared.

【You have obtained Sun Source Matter.】

"..."

Su Xiao put away the 【Sun Source Matter】. Dudu Gugu, whose prank had succeeded, said with a somewhat satisfied voice:

"Book, book, book."

Hearing this, Su Xiao looked suspicious. He took out several ancient books and placed them on one by one, but Dudu Gugu hung its small bone hands in disdain.

Seeing this, Su Xiao thought, could it be that Dudu Gugu, as a neutral unit, had improved overall, so it wanted to challenge the regret from the last trade? Thinking of this, he took out the "Book of Original Sin."

"Kiss, kiss, kiss! Kiss, kiss, kiss!"

Dudu Gugu's clear voice nearly cracked. Seeing this, Su Xiao continued to look through his storage space. He took out the 【Book of Doors】, which only had half a page left. This caused the small bone hands opposite to pause significantly, as if Dudu Gugu was stunned after seeing the 【Book of Doors】 with only half a page left.

"Dudu."

Dudu Gugu used the index finger of a small bone hand to point at the 【Book of Doors】 on the stone plate, meaning that the trade was possible, but other things needed to be paid.

This was different from the past. Su Xiao pondered for a moment and took out the 【World Medal】.

【World Medal (Souvenir, can be gifted to neutral units, thereby having a certain probability of receiving a return gift).】

"Dudu, Gugu."

Dudu Gugu actually showed a bit of dancing and gesturing, looking particularly happy. It used a small bone hand to make a gesture of touching its chin and thinking out of thin air. This was clearly imitating the action Su Xiao made when he was thinking during one of their meetings.

A moment later, Dudu Gugu put away the 【Book of Doors】 with only half a page left and the 【World Medal】. Its two small bone hands reached out through the wall, holding a... 【Book of Doors】 that looked even more ancient, a complete 【Book of Doors】 with a total of 10 pages.

Completing this round of trading, the trading quota with Dudu Gugu for this time was exhausted. However, Su Xiao felt that the tier of items he took out this time was definitely not Dudu Gugu's limit. It was just that the trading quota limit with Dudu Gugu for this world progress had been reached, so he could only wait until their next meeting to know what other good things Dudu Gugu had.

"Hand, hand, hand, grab hand, hand."

Dudu Gugu's small bone hand pointed at Su Xiao's hand. Su Xiao pressed his right hand onto the stone plate, and Dudu Gugu's several small bone hands grabbed his hand. The small bone hands were slightly cool.

【Prompt: Because you reached a trade with Dudu Gugu, the items you took out made Dudu Gugu feel your generosity, and you have traded with Dudu Gugu many times, Dudu Gugu's trust in you is quite strong. You have successfully triggered Dudu Gugu's secret quest.】

【Special Quest · Dudu Gugu's Secret Quest (Only one ring).】

Difficulty Level: Lv. 92.

Danger Level: Lv. 5.

Quest Brief: Find the Red Stone Block, Black Stone Block, and Blue Stone Block, and hand the three types of stone blocks to Dudu Gugu.

Prompt: When you are within 1,000 meters of these three types of stone blocks, a quest tracking reaction will be triggered.

Red Stone Block: Scorching yet cold, smooth yet rough.

Black Stone Block: Dark yet warm, heavy yet light.

Blue Stone Block: Hard yet fragile, gorgeous yet dull.

Quest Deadline: 150 natural days (no restriction on the world).

Quest Reward: Dudu Gugu's exclusive equipment.

Quest Penalty: Get your palm slapped three times by Dudu Gugu.

【Prompt: You have received Dudu Gugu's "Buff Blessing · Protection." Your body defense +45 points, maximum health +3% (because your maximum health limit is too high, this bonus is reduced from the original 15% to only being able to increase your maximum health by 3%). The effect lasts for 12 hours.】

【When this buff blessing ends, you can return to this place again, or when you encounter Dudu Gugu in other areas, you can re-obtain Dudu Gugu's buff blessing.】

It seemed that after the last attempt to buff Su Xiao's luck resulted in him fainting and the buff failing, Dudu Gugu had learned its lesson this time and directly buffed his regular state.

After completing the trade with Dudu Gugu, Su Xiao set up a space coordinate here to facilitate future visits. Leaving the large stone house, he found that the environment of Black Wudao had improved a bit; at the very least, it was no longer so cold and dark.

Su Xiao, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, and Baham came to the edge of the island. Below was a ten-thousand-meter drop.

Su Xiao jumped down.

Baham flew down.

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang: *"w(Д)w"*

A few minutes later, Luciva, who was near the entire 【Lord Train】 preparing to reinforce at any time, suddenly heard:

*"Awoo-woof!!"*

The sound came from far to near. Luciva looked up and saw a figure falling first. When it was about to land, its speed dropped sharply, and it stood steadily on the ground. At a higher altitude, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, who was in free fall, had tears streaming out, its four paws kicking wildly in the air. When it was about to land, it also slowed down sharply under the influence of Su Xiao's ability and landed steadily.

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang squatted there, motionless for a long time. Baham looked over in confusion, while Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's little expression clearly meant: "Don't move me, I peed."

Two hours later.

Northern Continent, the northernmost area, dark purple aurora shrouded the sky.

The Priest, Platinum Apostle, and Abyssal Archbishop walked out of a dark vortex.

"Is this the Dark Moon Nightmare?"

The Platinum Apostle spoke.

"That's right. The third target we need to deal with, the Dark Moon Grand Prince, is right here. That over there is the nightmare entrance."

The Priest had a thoughtful look in his eyes because he knew that entering the Dark Moon Nightmare this time would be much livelier than expected.

At the same time, located south of the Dark Moon Nightmare entrance.

"Ahahaha, I said we should go this way."

Because Tyrant guessed the path correctly, he let out a happy and heroic laugh.

"Amazing, Tyrant. You found it even without a map."

Immortal Brother looked at the entrance of the Dark Moon Nightmare. Because he had been drinking a lot of various buff potions recently, his two eyes seemed to have their own stubborn ideas at this moment. That look was full of wisdom—at least that was what Tyrant on the side thought.

"Tsk~, it was clearly a lucky guess."

The Star Realm Devourer, who looked like a child, had cracks all over his face and served as the team's brain, spoke. Although he hadn't been born long, he deeply felt that his two teammates sometimes had "intelligence" that was beyond the ordinary.

*Slap~*

Tyrant slapped the back of the Star Realm Devourer's head and said angrily, "Bullshit. And you need to show some respect to your big brother. With your IQ, don't doubt your big brother's wisdom."

Regarding the interaction of the three, the Black Demon little fatty, whose eyes were completely pitch-black, remained silent. From the somewhat speechless look of this fierce existence, it could be seen that it was doubting whether continuing to be in this team was the right choice.

And regarding the opportunity to devour Tyrant, Immortal Brother, and the Star Realm Devourer, the Black Demon was very hesitant and wary, worried that if it devoured these three guys, it would be finished if it accidentally plundered their "wisdom causality."

That's right, the Big Brain Team's destination this time was also the Dark Moon Nightmare. Their strong enemy this time was the White Wolf Lord.

Su Xiao's team, the Priest's team, and the Big Brain Team arrived at the Dark Moon Nightmare almost one after another. One could imagine how lively the situation in the Dark Moon Nightmare would be this time.

Even livelier was that a five-person treasure-hunting team from the Apocalypse Paradise had come to the Dark Moon Nightmare this time.
