Chapter 144

"Senior, who exactly do you need us to wake up? And with your strength, do you still need our help?" Chen Fan asked with a frown.

After Mo Yichen sighed, he did not explain immediately, but his gaze fell on Luo Yao.

"The person I need you to help me wake up is Luo Yao's mother!"

"Luo Yao's mother?!" The group was surprised.

"Yes, this barrier is essentially a Dream Barrier, formed by the dreams of Luo Yao's mother."

Mo Yichen recalled as he spoke slowly.

It turned out that this other-dimensional space was discovered by Mo Yichen. Because the environment here was excellent and there were no strange beasts to disturb them, he simply moved here with Luo Yao's mother, Mo Youlan, to live.

Mo Youlan's awakening was an SS-rank ability, Great Dream Beginner Heart. Her talent was extremely strong, and she was also very beautiful, so she was pursued by many peer prodigies at the time.

But she had a proud and arrogant personality, and no one among her peers could catch her eye.

After living here for a long time, Mo Youlan developed the idea of exploring this world.

At first, Mo Yichen did not agree, but after Mo Youlan advanced to a seventh-rank Grandmaster, he felt relieved and stopped restraining her.

However, Mo Youlan took a boat and left, never to return.

It wasn't until a year later that Mo Youlan returned to this island with a big belly.

Mo Yichen was both happy and angry. He was happy that his daughter had returned safely, but angry that she was pregnant, and Mo Youlan wouldn't say a word about what she had experienced, washing her face with tears all day long.

Mo Yichen was helpless!

After giving birth to Luo Yao, Mo Youlan fell into a deep sleep and never woke up.

After Mo Yichen finished speaking, his face seemed to have aged a few years.

"Why would she fall into a deep sleep and never wake up?" The group was puzzled.

Mo Yichen said: "This is a dream she created herself. She is trapped in it and cannot wake up. I hope you can enter the Dream Barrier and wake her up."

"Senior, haven't you tried to wake her up yourself?" Chen Fan asked, puzzled.

"Sigh, how could I not have tried? This barrier prevents me and Luo Yao from entering, unless I forcibly break this barrier, but that would make Youlan never wake up again from then on."

"You can't get in, so can we?" Chen Fan and the others were a bit confused.

"I don't know either, let's try. If you can pass through this barrier, you can enter her dream world."

"Alright." The group didn't hold much hope, but when they touched the barrier, they didn't encounter any obstacles and passed through easily.

As soon as the group stepped into the barrier, the surrounding environment changed. The next moment, they appeared outside an ancient city.

On the city gate, four large characters were carved: Hope City!

Just as the group was surprised, a crisp voice rang out.

"Hey, hurry up and come in, the beast tide is coming soon, the city gates are about to close."

The group was startled. Looking up, standing on the city wall was a girl of seventeen or eighteen, with a ponytail, extremely lively; it was Luo Yao!

"Luo Yao actually got in too?" The group looked at each other, all somewhat surprised. After all, Mo Yichen had said that this barrier repelled him and Luo Yao from entering.

However, the Luo Yao on the city wall didn't seem to recognize the group, shouting: "What are you still standing there for, come in!"

"She doesn't seem to recognize us!" The group looked at each other, their eyes filled with deep disbelief.

At the same time, behind the group, beast roars sounded one after another, as if ten thousand beasts were charging, and the ground was shaking slightly.

"Is this really a dream? It's so real!" Zhao Mingze couldn't help but be surprised.

"Do you think if we die here, we will really die?"

"Uh..." For a moment, everyone's expressions stiffened, and their relaxed spirits became tense.

"Let's enter the city first, in case we really get trampled to death by the beast tide." Chen Fan suggested decisively.

The group didn't dare to be careless and quickly squeezed into the city gate.

At this time, the area under the city gate and on the city wall was crowded with people, at least ten thousand.

These people looked nervous, all holding weapons, ready for battle.

"Hey, you look so unfamiliar, are you from our Hope City?"

Luo Yao jumped down from the city wall, came to the group, and asked with her hands on her hips.

Seeing the group hesitate, Luo Yao spoke again: "Hey, I'm asking you!"

The group looked at each other; it was now certain that this person was not the Luo Yao from the outside world.

Chen Fan hurriedly made an excuse: "We got lost and accidentally came here."

"Accidentally came here?" After Luo Yao was surprised, she actually seemed unusually happy.

"You wouldn't happen to be from Blue Star, would you?" She stared at the group, her eyes full of curiosity.

"Ah... yes." Chen Fan felt uncomfortable being stared at and scratched his head in response.

"That's great! I heard that Hope City hasn't had any outsiders for almost 20 years. The last person to accidentally come here was my mother. She will be very happy to see you." Luo Yao looked at the group with a touch of intimacy.

Luo Yao was about to say something else, but a horn sounded on the city wall, followed by a violent shout.

"The first wave of the beast tide is here, warriors, prepare for battle!"

Luo Yao's expression became tense, and she hurriedly said to the group: "The beast tide is too dangerous, stay behind me! Don't get separated!"

The group followed Luo Yao to the city wall. At this time, warriors with long-range output capabilities had already begun to intercept the beast tide army.

In just an instant, hundreds of strange beasts fell in the herd.

But there were too many of these strange beasts, dense and numerous; there were probably ten thousand of them.

"Don't worry, I will protect you!" Luo Yao took down the bow and arrow on her back. As she pulled the bowstring, an arrow condensed from gold-type ability generated on its own.

The next moment, *whoosh*, the golden arrow broke through the air, directly piercing the head of a second-tier mid-stage strange beast in the distance.

Chen Fan was even more surprised. The Luo Yao here did not have the Ten Thousand Poison Body ability, but some kind of gold-type ability.

He looked around again; the humans here were extremely heroic, clearly long used to facing beast tides attacking the city.

Outside the tall city wall, as more and more strange beasts attacked, melee ability users also joined the scene one after another.

Soon, the battlefield was in chaos.

And Luo Yao kept bending her bow and setting arrows, always guarding beside Chen Fan and the others.

"Don't be afraid, my archery was taught by my father, it's very powerful, I will protect you!"

However, no sooner had she finished speaking than a third-tier early-stage Bone Armor Violent Ape leaped up from under the city wall, aiming directly at her.

Luo Yao hurriedly shot an arrow, but the ape's gray bone armor was extremely hard, and it was completely unharmed.

The ape was extremely fast, and in a few jumps, it arrived in front of her, its bloody mouth biting fiercely toward her head.

Luo Yao's melee ability was extremely poor, and she couldn't dodge at all; her face turned deathly pale immediately.

Just at this moment, Chen Fan, who was on the side, acted decisively.

Just as the ape was about to bite Luo Yao, a fist wrapped in thunder blasted the opponent's head to pieces with one punch.

Luo Yao was already scared silly, staring blankly at Chen Fan, her mouth hanging open.

Chen Fan's brow couldn't help but wrinkle. Killing this Bone Armor Violent Ape did not earn him any killing points, which meant this was definitely not the real world.

"Help kill the enemy!" After thinking it over, Chen Fan ordered the group behind him.

Since it wasn't the real world, letting the group train a bit was also good.

"Yes!" The group hurriedly mobilized their abilities and killed the strange beasts nearby.

Luo Yao finally came to her senses at this time. She looked deeply at Chen Fan's back before joining the battle.

This battle was extremely tragic, but the group of warriors in Hope City always stood firm on the city wall, not letting a single strange beast enter the city.

However, the strange beast herd was endless, wave after wave, each wave stronger than the last. Half an hour later, fifth-tier and sixth-tier strange beasts were everywhere.

On the human side, many powerful ability users also emerged from Hope City and chose to join the battlefield.

At this time, Chen Fan and the others had already retreated; the current battlefield was no longer something they could participate in.

The great battle continued for another half hour, and many seventh-tier strange beasts had already appeared in the herd.

On the human side, there were also Grandmaster-level powerhouses who chose to fight, but their numbers were far fewer than the seventh-tier strange beasts in the herd.

Just when Chen Fan thought Hope City was about to face a catastrophe, a melodious flute sound suddenly rang out, appearing extremely abrupt on the battlefield of shouting people and neighing horses.

Wherever the flute sound passed, the human warriors were all high-spirited, and their combat effectiveness increased by thirty percent.

Looking at the strange beasts, they were all listless, and those with low strength even fell to the ground and couldn't get up.

"It's my mother who has taken action!" Luo Yao pointed at a beautiful woman with an excellent temperament on the battlefield and spoke excitedly.
