Chapter 676: Chapter 676

"Everyone, there must be unimaginable danger within that Nightmare City ’Snow Mount Ice City’!"

A Pisces Branch cleaner, with a particularly grave expression, narrated:

"You all know, our Pisces Branch was founded by the first generation Pisces director, who inherited a large portion of her legacy. Among those legacies, there is an abnormal object called the ’Mind Wheel,’ which is specifically used to detect the situations of the Dream Realm, Shadow Realm, and Realm of the Dead, these ’immaterial realms.’

This abnormal object hangs opposite the office desk of our director. I saw it once when I went to submit a report. The warning light on it, belonging to the Dream Realm, has always been lit, and the position is precisely at the deepest part of the Demonic Soul Abyss, which should be that Snow Mount Ice City!"

"I’ve also heard rumors about the situation in Snow Mount Ice City."

After the Pisces Branch cleaner finished sharing the known intelligence, a cleaner from the Aries Branch also stood up, nervously sharing:

"There seems to be some large-scale disaster occurring in the Dream Realm recently, causing a large number of Nightmares to escape, lingering in reality and occupying many people’s dreams, trapping them in dreams without waking up.

Then, our Aries Branch director assigned many temporary tasks, letting us second and third-level cleaners use the abnormal objects distributed by headquarters to expel these Nightmares that have escaped from the Dream Realm.

During several expulsion tasks I participated in, many Nightmares, when locked onto by headquarters’ ’Dream Guiding Needle’ and forcibly expelled by us, would desperately cry out, begging not to be treated like that, saying they didn’t want to return to Snow Mount Ice City or something..."

"I’ve also received similar tasks..."

"The Nightmares I’ve encountered said the same thing!"

"That Snow Mount Ice City is clearly not a good place!"

After the Aries Branch cleaner shared their experience, a total of over eighty cleaners stood up, expressing that they had carried out similar tasks and heard about the infamous Snow Mount Ice City from the mouths of those Nightmares.

It is said that this demon den, feared by countless Nightmares, is built on the ruins of the original Nightmare Palace. It has the fresh red color of blood as well as the cold white of ice and snow. If you get close enough, you will be eroded by a terrifying demonic sound and subjected to intense mental corruption.

The actual ruler of Snow Mount Ice City is the Snow Maiden, one of the seven nightmare emissaries under the King of Nightmares. She managed to escape back to the Dream Realm after the King’s death, but for some reason, she seems to be tainted with an aura of something extremely terrifying.

It is said that just by slightly approaching her, one will feel a soul-crushing pressure. Even other nightmare emissaries dare not approach her. Saint spirits sent by other dream realm True Gods to inquire about the situation, merely getting within five steps of her, could not withstand the tremendous pressure, trembling and kneeling immediately...

Well done, Snow Maiden...

Listening to these chaotic Dream Realm gossips, with a strange expression, Leon couldn’t help but open the panel, glancing at the hidden Gold badge he acquired after releasing the Dream Eating Anomalous Carapace in the Dream Realm back then.

[Nightmare of Nightmares: Extremely mad and completely reckless, for a moment’s pleasure, you would even destroy a world, and now, you have become the most feared nightmare in the heart of the King of Nightmares]

[Wearing Effect: Deeply feared by the Lord of Nightmares, you are now equivalent to being above all nightmares, and no nightmare is qualified to affect you]

[Advancement Path: None] Follow current novels on Nove1Fire.net

[Hidden Trait (No need to wear): As a supreme villain planning to utterly destroy the entire Dream Realm, your notorious name will resound throughout the Dream Realm, and all dream realm creatures below True God level will endure immense fear by merely sensing your aura]

So, the so-called soul-corrupting brainwashing sound might be the Snow King’s March that the Snow Maiden heard from me, and the aura of that terrifying presence probably stems from the ’Lust Dream Invader’ that the director took from me and lent to the Snow Maiden.

That thing has long been one of my main abnormal objects, cloaked in much of my aura, also triggering the ’Nightmare of Nightmares’ effect... Hmm... or perhaps the Snow Maiden who had been traversing the dream realm at my side absorbed much of my aura over time.

"So let’s proceed to a vote!"

Just as Leon was listening to the gossip while analyzing the situation in Snow Mount Ice City, the temporary meeting of the cleaners was reaching its conclusion.

Being one of the two strongest cleaners, aside from a certain people-eating pervert, the ’Death God,’ enveloped in hazy grey mist, spoke:

"I think we can accept the terms of the Goddess of Pleasure Dreams. Nightmare emissaries have abilities similar to ordinary saint spirits, and both Abigail from the Scorpio Branch and I are veteran level 1 cleaners, capable of killing a saint spirit in a one-on-one or facing two at the same time.

Apart from the two of us, Rudy from the Taurus Branch, Ashima from the Aries Branch, and over ten veteran level 2 cleaners all have the ability to resist a saint spirit one-on-one. With some coordination, we might even achieve kills in a multi-versus-one situation.

And after the King of Nightmares was killed, there are no True Gods in the Demonic Soul Abyss now. The nightmare emissaries, with powers similar to saint spirits, are the highest level combat force, and our side, with over twenty saint spirit-level people against seven, clearly has the advantage."

"Well, it’s hard to say?"

A cleaner from the Aries Branch stood out, hesitantly reminding:

"Mason, we trust your ability, but even with little difference in high-end combat, our numbers are still too small. The number of Nightmares in the Demonic Soul Abyss is over a million, and with just our four hundred people, it might be hard to handle!"

"Why not just not handle them?"

The ’Silver Man,’ who got slashed by Leon within five seconds during the second assessment, confidently spoke:

"My ability can also be used on others, even though the effect is limited when distributed among more than four hundred people, it can still elevate our speed to a level that ordinary Nightmares can’t catch up to. We just have to push through, and we can quickly pass through the Demonic Soul Abyss where the Nightmares reside and reach the deepest Snow Mount Ice City.

And the aura on the Snow Maiden will make ordinary Nightmares instinctively want to flee, so the number of Nightmares in Snow Mount Ice City shouldn’t be many, and it would be good enough if there are some elites."

The horned man, who previously had conflicts with Leon, also stood up, adding with squinted eyes:

"At that time, we can completely split into two groups. Those of us who can deal with saint spirits will encircle and kill the nightmare emissaries, while the rest handle the elite Nightmares and seal off the entrance to Snow Mount Ice City, fending off those ordinary Nightmares possibly being called for support.

Although the number of Nightmares is nearly infinite and this blocking would certainly not last long, as long as we kill the nightmare emissaries quickly enough, then everything will not be a problem."
