Chapter 2 Signals that appear and disappear
[Grandma Liu from the east end of the village has been plagued by nightmares recently and is miserable. 】
[As the leader and god of the realm, you should use your abilities to fulfill your responsibilities to protect the realm and the people. 】
[Nightmares will appear after people are asleep, like spiders, weaving huge webs of dreams, trapping and swallowing the emotions of their prey, such as anger, sadness, fear, etc., in order to strengthen themselves. Nightmares often do things based on instinct, and the types of dreams are mostly random. Powerful nightmares can even easily kill people in their dreams with their powerful dream weaving ability. 】
【Would you choose to kill the nightmare? 】
After Chen Jingle read the introduction, he decisively chose yes.
[After some hard work, you successfully used the Realm Master Seal to eliminate the nightmare. 】
【You got the Nightmare Heart】
[You have obtained 200 points of incense will power]
【True believer +1】
Tsk~
The battle process is extremely simple, there is not even an animation effect, it is all text introduction.
Well, that's to be expected.
"Two words, simple!"
Chen Jingle was too lazy to complain, but the reward made his eyes light up and he quickly opened the prop box.
[Nightmare Heart, after wearing it, the character's mental power and chance of dreaming will be increased. The type of dream will be random. Dreams have certain dangers and have the effect of refining the mind in the world of mortals. Equipable. 】
Seeing the words "Equipable", he immediately chose to equip it on the character.
"True believer?"
"Does it mean that after saving the NPC, the other party chose to believe in me?"
"According to conventional settings, can believers provide incense?"
Chen Jingle pondered secretly.
Furthermore, after killing the nightmare, the incense points increased by 200.
"I don't know what level this monster is. If it costs 200 points of incense each, then I have to kill two more to be able to spend in the lowest level mall."
I wandered around several other map areas, but unfortunately no new mission events were triggered.
"What, why are there games that don't even have a few monsters?"
There are so many flaws, I’m really speechless.
Seeing that it was past 12 o'clock, Chen Jingle was so sleepy that he simply quit the game and prepared to sleep.
"It's okay. The setting is quite interesting. I'll play it for two days before deleting it. Anyway, it's just idle time."
……
Just when Chen Jingle put down his phone.
In an old tile-roofed house less than 500 meters away from his home, a short and thin old woman with gray hair was lying on the bed, with a look of pain on her sleeping face.
His forehead was covered with layers of cold sweat, and the eyes under his eyelids kept turning. His body wanted to struggle, but was restrained and unable to move, and even had a faint tendency to suffocate.
Clearly having a nightmare.
From time to time, a low and sinister inhuman laughter sounded in the room, which made people feel goosebumps.
There seemed to be something floating and wandering in the darkness.
Suddenly, a majestic voice sounded:
"How dare you let your little nightmare run wild here!"
"The order - kill!"
Along with this, a huge seal appeared in the room, and a faint light emitted.
The strange existence that had been laughing eerily just now seemed to have encountered some terrible terror, and its laughter turned into a shrill scream, trying to escape.
However, the shadow bloomed with light, shrouding it, giving no chance of escape.
Another red light flashed, directly erasing the nightmare from this world!
After the dust settled, everything returned to calm.
It's like nothing happened.
The sleeping old man seemed not to be disturbed. He let out a long breath, his frown slowly relaxed, and his face and heartbeat gradually returned to calmness.
The nightmare crisis is over!
……
at the same time.
Dozens of kilometers away in Chuchuan City, inside a small three-story building with an unattractive appearance, the lights were still bright at this time.
"Report! A strange signal has been detected, number 0759075, energy level C, locating..."
"Location successful! Prepare to notify colleagues from the nearby civil affairs bureau to take them in..."
"Huh? Wait, the signal number 0759075 has disappeared!!"
The normally orderly staff in front of the screen suddenly shouted in panic.
Instantly attracted everyone's attention.
Cai Quan heard the sound and rushed over, asking in a deep voice: "What's going on?"
"I don't know, it's just that the signal suddenly disappeared..."
The staff was very confused when they encountered this situation for the first time.
He could swear that it was definitely not a mistake on his part!
"Disappear?!"
Cai Quan looked shocked.
"Director Cai, could it be that the machine made an error?"
The staff asked weakly.
"Impossible!"
Cai Quan categorically denied: "Since this equipment was installed, I haven't heard of any problems, and I haven't even missed the energy level judgment."
It should be noted that the strange way of existence is completely different from that of humans.
It is as conspicuous as a torch in the dark night. Once it appears, the signal will be captured, and combined with the bound Beidou navigation system, its location can be determined instantly.
The error will not even exceed 50 meters.
The question is, why did the signal that originally appeared suddenly disappear again?
Something is wrong!
For a time, several possibilities came to Cai Quan's mind, but he ruled them out one by one.
Finally, he frowned: "Keep staring! In addition, Zhao Yi and Xie Feifan, you two go to the location where 075 disappeared to find out what happened. Be sure to find out the reason! A C-level weirdo disappeared without explanation. It cannot be explained!" ”
This matter is serious and must be reported.
Otherwise, he, the person in charge of the prefecture-level civil affairs bureau, would not be able to deal with a big problem.
"Yes!"
When their names were called, the two people's hearts skipped a beat and they responded quickly.
I just couldn't help but murmur in my heart: "I hope I won't encounter any danger."
Both of them are C-level monster masters, so it won't be a problem to deal with a C-level monster together.
The premise is that under normal circumstances.
Unfortunately, their trip was destined to be in vain.
……
……
Chen Jingle had a dream.
I dreamed that I had become a god-like figure, soaring in the clouds and mists, flying with a sword, causing clouds to make rain, or killing demons.
So happy.
Then... I was woken up.
Early in the morning, grandma called the door outside the yard, and the stainless steel gate made a loud sound.
Chen Jingle came down from the second floor yawning: "What's the matter so early, grandma?"
The old lady said with a straight face: "What time is it and is it still early? Not to mention your age, even a few years ago, I was doing hard work. I would go to the fields to weed and then come back to drink two bowls of gruel."
"Ah, yes, yes."
Experience has taught Chen Jingle that it is best not to talk back at this time.
The old lady managed to calm down: "Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year. Your grandfather killed a little hen this morning. Brush your teeth and wash your face quickly, and accompany me to pay homage to the father-in-law."
It is customary here to call the gods worshiped as Gong or Ye.
For example, Lord Jingzhu, Lord Huaguang, Lord Zao, and Lord Guan.
Worshiping the public means worshiping gods and ancestors.
"Okay, wait for me for five minutes."
Chen Jingle scratched his head.
The old lady is old, her lumbar vertebrae have proliferated, and she can't bear the burden. It's normal for his eldest grandson to be stretched out at home.
"What does it sound like for such a big person to stay at home with a cat all day long without going out!"
The old lady was not angry and walked away muttering with her hands behind her back.
Chen Jingle was indifferent. He was already a dead pig and was not afraid of boiling water.
You say what you want, if there is any reaction, I lose.
It’s just that I can’t help complaining in my heart: “I was called a freelancer two years ago, but now I’m called a flexible employee. Besides, I haven’t stolen or robbed, and I can pay taxes to the country every month, what else do you want?”
It’s not just giving 996 to capitalists or getting a guaranteed job. (End of chapter)
