Chapter 155: Darkened (2)
Translator: 549690339
“So it’s just a child … No wonder it’s so weak.”
Jiang He fell into deep thought as he read the information in the illustrated Handbook.
“Oh?”
The nightmare spirit snake wriggled its body under the moonlight elf’s claws, its Crimson eyes pleading and fawning.
However, due to the language barrier, the moonlight elf thought that it was struggling desperately.
“Meow!” (Be honest!)
Zi Yue shouted fiercely, and at the same time, a trace of moonlight energy was released from her claws.
Zi Zi Zi!
The moment the moonlight energy came into contact with the nightmare spirit snake’s scales, a burning sound was heard.
Shadow energy and light energy were two types of energy that were incompatible as fire and water. They were in a mutually restraining relationship.
“Woof!!”
...The nightmare spirit snake, which was already a little weak, was now completely broken.
“Tell me, where did you enter my room from? Where is your mother now? What’s your goal in making the Beastmasters have nightmares?”
Jiang Hesan asked, but soon realized that they didn’t speak the same language.
“Forget it, I’ll do it myself! Don’t resist, or you’ll have to bear the consequences!”
“Chi …”
Even though they did not speak the same language, the nightmare Phantom snake could still sense the threat from Jiang He.
Jiang He activated his synchrony and connected to the nightmare spirit snake’s mental strength.
Fear…Low…Weakling…Pitiful.
These were the nightmare spirit snake’s current emotions.
“You’re such a coward, yet you still dare to come out and harm people. ”
Jiang He grumbled in his heart as he began to observe the nightmare spirit snake’s spiritual world.
He wanted to use his synchrony ability to locate the mother of the nightmare spirit snake.
Since he happened to meet him, he would help him in passing so that this guy wouldn’t continue to harm others.
The nightmare spirit snake’s mental world had three “spirits” of different colors.
They were red, gray, and black.
Jiang He first chose the red “spirit”.
Soon, the scene in front of him changed.
“Illusionary dream snake, I’m your Beastmaster from now on. Please take care of me!”
A young man appeared in front of “Jiang He”, and he was speaking to the nightmare serpent with a serious expression. No, it should be the illusionary snake at this moment.
“Hiss~”
Jiang He could feel that the illusionary dream snake was quite happy at the moment. It had a good impression of the young man in front of it.
“So this nightmare serpent actually has an owner. That means that the mastermind behind this incident is very likely this little boy in front of me.”
Jiang He thought to himself.
He had originally thought that the nightmare spirit snake was a wandering subdued beast. He didn’t expect it to have a Beastmaster backing it.
Then the severity of this incident could be raised to another level.
Jiang He continued to read.
The ‘red’ spirit seemed to be recording the nightmare spirit snake’s happy times.
The illusionary dream snake and its Beastmaster worked hard in their training, and lived together.
It was the first time he had created a dream world, the first time he had absorbed someone else’s nightmare, and the first time he had released a beautiful dream to someone who was asleep.
During this period, the nightmare spirit snake seemed to be a familiar with very good values and liked to help others.
Its Beastmaster was also a positive and bright young man.
Jiang He gained a lot of information after a quick scan.
The nightmare spirit snake’s Beastmaster was called Xu Youling.
His parents were both famous professional Beastmasters in ocean blue City. As such, he could choose the extremely precious spirit-type familiar as his first familiar.
The red “spirit” could not provide any more information, so Jiang He immediately sensed the gray “spirit”.
“Ah Meng! You’re the only one I have left. ”
The scene changed, and Xu You Ling’s voice sounded in “Jiang He ‘s” ears.
The young man in front of him had matured a lot, but his face was Haggard and his eyes were filled with unconcealable grief.
His parents had sacrificed their lives to protect more people during a familiar attack in the New World.
“Chi …”
The nightmare spirit snake crawled up the young man’s arm and wrapped its body tightly around his palm.
It meant that it would stay by The Beastmaster’s side forever.
“Thank you …”
“Ah Meng, we have to prepare for your next evolution. There are currently two known evolutionary routes for the illusionary dream snake. One of them is the beautiful dream spirit snake, also known as the auspicious beast. It can make people have beautiful dreams while sleeping, but the condition for evolution is to devour thousands of beautiful dreams. ”
“Chi …”
The illusionary dream snake shook its head. It was evolving by absorbing the happiness of others.
It didn’t want to take this path.
“Yes, I’m also more inclined to the second nightmare path. The evolution condition is to devour countless nightmares. I think nightmare Terminators are more suitable for us.”
“Swish!”
[This stage seems quite normal. What exactly provoked them to become dark?]
Jiang He actually felt a little regretful when he saw these scenes.
The nightmare spirit snake and his Beastmaster were once gentle and kind people. What kind of stimulation did they receive that caused them to change completely?
Jiang He increased his “speed.”
Very quickly, Xu Youling was admitted to a University. It was the famous Haidu University.
The illusionary dream snake had also absorbed enough nightmares to evolve into a nightmare spirit snake.
However, it also brought a bad thing. Most people didn’t dare to get close to him.
After all, it was said that bad luck would befall anyone who got close to the nightmare spirit snake.
“Chi …”
Once, the nightmare spirit snake had dejectedly requested Xu Youling to take it back into the familiar space. That way, Xu Youling might be able to make some friends.
However, Xu Youling had rejected him.
“I don’t care about what others think. It’s enough to have you.”
In the following period of time, Xu Youling continued to do things his own way, and he was practically inseparable from the nightmare spirit snake.
He did not make a single friend during his four years in University. He only went to the various communities in the dead of the night, allowing the nightmare spirit snake to quietly devour everyone’s nightmares.
Through nightmare spirit snake’s eyes, Jiang He saw that Xu Youling was becoming more and more unsociable.
However, his heart had not changed.
At this stage, although he had become quiet, his heart was still gentle and soft.
[It seems that the ‘answer’ to the darkening is hidden in the final ‘Black Spirit’.]
Jiang He thought to himself. He felt that he was in a good mental state, so he connected with the “Black Spirit” after that.
Darkness, evil, violence, loneliness, fear …
The moment he sensed the Black Spirit, countless negative emotions surged toward him like a tidal wave.
At this moment, the nightmare serpent seemed to have fallen into some kind of extreme state and was undergoing some kind of shocking transformation.
“Ah Meng, bear with it. Since this world has never treated us with gentleness, then we shall repay the world with cruelty!”
“Jiang He.” Xu Youling’s voice sounded in his ears.
However, the surrounding environment was dark, and he couldn’t see clearly at all.
Then, as if some mechanism in the nightmare spirit snake’s body had been triggered, the mental power in its body quickly gathered together and formed a hard shell.
This was the nightmare spirit snake’s mental protection barrier.
Jiang He woke up to find the nightmare spirit snake unconscious. It was lying on the ground motionlessly as if it was dead.
“Dong Dong!”
At this moment, he heard a knock on the door.
“Is anyone there? The Imperial beast administration is handling a case!”
“I haven’t reported the case yet!”
Jiang He was dumbfounded.
When did the “police” become so fast?
Five minutes ago.
When Jiang He’s amulet released the [light dispersion], the amulet in the hands of an inspector from the supervision Bureau who was patrolling the Riverside Villa area also emitted a milky white light.
“Requesting reinforcements!”
The tall and thin patrolman hurriedly informed the other members, then put the amulet in the middle of his palm, summoned the fire Dog, and ran to the villas on both sides.
The brighter the amulet glowed, the closer he was to the nightmare spirit snake!
From there, he could determine which villa it was.
However, the light on the amulet suddenly disappeared.
“How’s the situation? did you find him?”
At that moment, the chubby bureau chief Liu Dongri arrived at the scene on his flying-type familiar. The other investigators were also on their way.
“No… No. The light on the amulet has gone out, so the nightmare serpent might have already escaped. We’re still too late. ”
The tall and thin agent gasped.
“It’s more important to save them. Let’s find that ambushed Beastmaster first!”
“Initial confirmation that the victims were in the six nearby villas. The amulet’s light was the most dazzling before it dissipated.”
“Good! Then we’ll knock on each house. You’ll be in charge of these two, and I’ll do the rest!”
Liu Dongri quickly assigned the tasks.
“If there’s no one in the villa, let me know. I’ll send the dream butterfly to investigate the situation.”
Even if they were the administration of familiars, they couldn’t trespass private property.
“Dong Dong!”
After that, Liu Dongri knocked on the door of the nearest villa.
