Chapter 685: Chapter 685
No... why are you starting to "order food" again?!
Seeing Leon, who had grabbed Abigail’s arm and raised a knife with an apologetic expression, the cleaners, who had just had a bit of admiration for him, suddenly felt their knees go weak, and their understanding of Leon deepened another level.
This B-rank operative from the Virgin Branch, despite having an extremely strong will that could even resist the temptation of immortality... it seems like he doesn’t want to resist the temptation of eating people at all!
"Wait... hold on a second!"
Just as Abigail, pale-faced and trembling, was about to desperately plead, another cleaner from the Scorpio Branch rushed out, clinging to Leon’s arm, and said with forced courage:
"We haven’t reached that point yet! Maybe there’s another way!"
Leon, being pulled, frowned, and said somewhat surprised:
"Do you have a way to get inside?"
"I don’t... but there must be one!"
"Sorry, but there really isn’t any."
Upon hearing this, Leon shook his head and said:
"I just checked it out; not only does this Mixue Ice City gathering the power of seven nightmare envoys, but it also has the blessing of [Nightmare] authority, and the support from the source of the Nightmare River. If we simply talk about the ’shell’ strength, it’s almost similar to a real Plane.
This kind of special dreamscape, below the True God level, there’s almost no solution. So no matter what abnormal object you have, as long as the Leon Value doesn’t meet the criteria, it’s impossible to break it. So let me handle it... by the way, you look like..."
"No, no, no! There is! There must be a way... I know! I know the way!"
In this situation, one can only say that people often find their potential when pushed to the brink. Latest content published on N0velFire.ɴet
Facing the imminent buffet, with Leon even targeting him, this cleaner from the Scorpio Branch almost had a sudden enlightenment and quickly shouted loudly:
"We can still wait for that Strawman to come over!"
Strawman? That nightmare envoy?
Upon hearing the reminder from the Scorpio Branch cleaner, Leon couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows slightly and immediately reacted.
The Mixue Ice City in front of them was created by nightmare envoys who wield [Nightmare] authority. And among them, one of the eight nightmare envoys, the Strawman Nightmare, who led a rebellion against the Snow Maidens, might indeed have a way to break through Mixue Ice City.
"Right, right, right! He’s right!"
"We can wait a bit! Wait until that Nightmare arrives!"
"There’s really a chance! You... you let her go first! No need to be this extreme!"
It’s almost over there; it’s fine to wait a little...
Under the anxious gaze of the cleaners, Leon hesitated slightly. Though he still held onto Abigail, he finally lowered the knife in his hand.
Putting down the knife is good! It’s good to put down the knife!
Finally calming the biggest bomb, the weary cleaners couldn’t help but regret participating in the assessment while fervently praying in their hearts, hoping that damn Strawman won’t mess up.
After all, if that Strawman Nightmare can’t enter Mixue Ice City either, then their safe route home is entirely cut off, and they can only accompany this dangerous lunatic in a great escape in the perilous Demonic Soul Abyss.
As for his repeated promise that being eaten would lead to being spat out whole again without issue... would you dare to believe it if you were in their shoes?
Soon, in the midst of the cleaners’ fervent prayers, the distant Strawman Nightmare finally cleaned up the aftermath, controlling the giant Leon to hurry over, and then shouted towards the towering Mixue Ice City:
"Damn traitor! Get out here, now!"
Hearing the Strawman Nightmare’s words, the faces of over four hundred cleaners instantly turned ashen.
This guy clearly showed an angry face but didn’t directly attack the city; instead, it started shouting outside. Doesn’t this mean it also doesn’t have a way to storm into the city?
Unaware that its expressions and actions could unsettle so many people, the Strawman Nightmare snorted after shouting a few unanswered shouts and continued to threaten:
"If you don’t come out, then I’m coming in!"
Whew... that scared us...
Upon hearing this, the cleaners couldn’t help but exhale heavily, their hearts that had jumped into their throats finally settling back down into their chests, while they viciously made a note against the Strawman Nightmare.
If it could break the city, why not do it quickly instead of arguing, making us all anxious... Damn it, you better wait!
Under the spiteful gaze of the cleaners, the Strawman Nightmare finally ceased its babbling and controlled the giant Leon to stretch out its arms, embracing the outer wall of Mixue Ice City.
Soon after, the previously calm Nightmare River beneath everyone’s feet suddenly surged, as about one-eighth of the black water, carrying countless fragmented and dim dreams, climbed up along the giant Leon’s legs, gradually enveloping him.
"Quick! It’s almost a success! Put in more effort!"
With the Strawman Nightmare’s urging, the nightmares under its control began strengthening their inner fears, and the previously immovable Red and White Giant City suddenly started shaking violently.
As the giant Leon applied more force, the black river beneath that had been stabilizing the giant city started surging, causing the Red and White Giant City settled on the river surface to sway, eventually breaking apart!
It worked! It worked!
Seeing Mixue Ice City finally break open, revealing the inside of the dream realm, not only were the nightmares led by the Strawman jubilant, even the hidden cleaners couldn’t help but cheer along.
If this damn city was broken by the Strawman, whether the task would be completed was uncertain, but at least their lives were saved, no longer constantly worried over.
And in this moment of united hope, several desperate cries suddenly echoed from the fractured Mixue Ice City.
"Damn it! What are you doing?!"
"Stop! Quickly stop!!!"
"Hehe, it’s you who should stop!"
Controlling the giant Leon’s arms, with a powerful breath, directly tore the outer shell of Mixue Ice City apart, and seeing the dream realm in front of him gradually shattering, the Strawman Nightmare couldn’t help but laugh towards the sky.
"You damn traitors are finished! So many nightmares sent back to the Nightmare Source by me, the King of Nightmares Lord has regained nourishment, and will soon revive, you... you... who are you?!!"
"You are that nightmare envoy who escaped earlier, aren’t you!"
Under the fearful gaze of the Strawman Nightmare, Leon with a bright mirror crown on his head, and a body enveloped in deep gray mist, slowly walked out from the forcibly torn dream, nodding with appreciation towards it, and said:
"Well done, if it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t know how long I’d be trapped by them."
