PrettyWeiWei was indeed a lucky girl.
Ling PingAn had received a message as soon as she’d opened the treasure box: Your teammate PrettyWeiWei opened the rose-gold treasure box.
You received 10,000 Point Certificates of Nightmare.
You obtained the Princess Pestilence’s Determination.
You obtained the Corpse Remnants of the Plague Embryo.
You obtained the Book of Pestilence (Incomplete).
There were only a few items in the treasure box, but every one of them shone with a purple glow.
Ling PingAn read through the attributes of the items and instantly realized that he had made a fortune this time.
The Princess Pestilence’s Determination was a legendary accessory.
Although it didn’t increase the points of any attribute, it had three special effects.
The first special effect was that you had a certain chance to make the enemy contract a random infectious disease during a strike.
The second special effect guaranteed that each attack would exacerbate the enemy’s condition if he had already caught a disease.
The third special effect provided that the enemy would immediately become a Plague Zombie with 10 life points if he died from the disease. The Plague Zombie would randomly attack enemies and explode in three seconds. He would also cause 10 points of splash damage to enemies within a three-meter radius and increase their chances of contracting the same infectious disease.
By reading the description of these special effects, Ling PingAn knew that this piece of equipment was very useful.
With these, he wouldn’t need to worry about getting crappy scores from commoners anymore.
As for the Corpse Remnants of the Plague Embryo, it was legendary-grade Nightmare Material.
According to its description, it could be used to forge magical weapons, add to high-level medicine as an efficacy-enhancer, or be included in some special ceremonies.
Nevertheless, the last item, the Book of Pestilence (Incomplete), seemed really quite strange.
Book of Pestilence (Incomplete). Grade: Legendary. Material: Skin of Evil Dragon of Hell
Description: This is an incomplete book obtained by Alucard, the Blood River Overlord, from an unknown Nightmare World. The book documents knowledge of pestilences and curses.

There was nothing else about the book.
Ling PingAn didn’t have a clue what the book could be used for.
While he was puzzling over the book, PrettyWeiWei suddenly sent him a request saying, “Master, can you please sell me the Corpse Remnants of the Plague Embryo?”
She chose her words cautiously and said, “I know…this might be too much to ask.
“But…it’s really important to me!
“I will give you all the Point Certificates I have.
“I know these are hardly enough. That’s why I can sign a contract with you notarized by the Realm of Nightmare that I will give you all the Point Certificates of Nightmare I earn in the future!”
Ling PingAn laughed as he heard her plea.
He sent the Corpse Remnants of the Plague Embryo to her straight away.
It was only a game.
Ling PingAn’s primary concern had always been having a good time.
He didn’t care about the equipment or coins.
After all, why would he need those things if he didn’t have a good time?
On the other hand, there was no use for them if he did enjoy himself.
1,000 gold coins spent, more would turn up.. This had always been Ling PingAn’s motto.
He only wanted to have fun.
Besides, this female player was truly lucky.
Therefore, Ling PingAn also sent her a friend request when he gave her the Corpse Remnants of the Plague Embryo.
“We should vanquish demons and monsters another time since fate brought us together,” said Ling PingAn.
At this moment, his gaming system was counting down already: Ten, Nine, Eight,…
“Thank you so much!” Chu Weiwei was overwhelmed with excitement when she stared at the thing in her Mark of Nightmare. It looked like a slab of meat and emitted a purple glow.
Corpse Remnants of the Plague Embryo. Grade: Legendary. Material: blood and flesh.
Description: This is the Plague Embryo Alucard, the Blood River Overlord, failed to develop.
Instructions: You can raise it into a real state and throw it in any volcano. This will completely destroy the rest of Alucard’s arrangements.
The Corpse Remnants of the Plague Embryo would basically solve the problems of the Beizhou Kingdom.
Nevertheless, Chu Weiwei still didn’t know who this so-called Alucard, the Blood River Overlord, was.
She also didn’t know how he’d used the Nightmare World to affect real life and cause disease in all the cattle in the Beizhou Kingdom.
Despite that, Chu Weiwei understood that she had to put an end to Alucard’s evil plan now.
Otherwise, the Beizhou Kingdom might lose more than cattle in the future.
…
A diverse group of players of the Nightmare Game was carefully exploring the dense forest.
Based on common sense and their experience, a Nightmare Mission usually would last several days or even months.
And the death rate of the players of the Nightmare Game might exceed 50 percent.
Sometimes a whole team could be wiped out in a Nightmare World at the most difficult level.
Therefore, no one dared to take it lightly.
So far, they were only lingering around the spot where they’d first appeared.
It was necessary!
Because they didn’t know anything about this world.
In addition, this was the first Nightmare World that had opened after the dramatic change of the Realm of Nightmare.
No one would joke around with their own lives.
“I heard that everyone inside died when the Realm of Nightmare was going through the changes.” A man with dark-colored skin squatted in the grass and asked the people around him, “Have you heard if anyone survived?”
All of them shook their heads.
“I wonder what kind of changes made us lose our connection with the entire realm for a whole hour,” the man continued.
At that moment, he received a message in his Mark of Nightmare: Mauradon the Princess Pestilence had died.
The history of the Nightmare World of Pestilence was about to change because of the death of Mauradon the Princess Pestilence.
This Nightmare World Mission was over.
Settling the current Nightmare World Mission, everyone was alarmed immediately.
They stared at each other, wondering what on earth had happened just now.
A sharp-witted man started to shout, “Realm, I request to use the Pardon for Nightmare!”
A sonorous voice answered, “Request granted!”
The man’s body gradually became transparent.
The rest of the group only figured out what was going on at that point.
They had made zero contributions to this world.
In other words, they would be considered as losers based on the rules of the Realm of Nightmare.
To what end would someone who failed a mission come?
Everyone screamed in fear.
“Realm, I request to use the Scroll of Forgiveness for Nightmare.”
“Realm, I request…”
But it was too late.
“The settlements of the Nightmare World are over!” The sonorous voice once again reached everyone’s ears. “Your requests are denied!
“The system has determined that you failed the main Nightmare Mission!
“You made zero contributions to this Nightmare World!
“Kill!”
One by one, their heads exploded.
Their bodies fell on the floor of the forest in the dead of night.
A bright moon was shining in the starry sky above the forest.
A couple of vultures landed on the ground, scavenging.
They approached the bodies with caution, then pecked at the flesh contentedly.
More and more vultures arrived.
They devoured the last bits of the bodies.
