Chapter 272: God of Nightmare
Gu Yun has always been decisive in his work. Before Marian could tell him what kind of creature the minions outside the grave were, Gu Yun had already gone downstairs alone.
A few minutes later, the sound of the door closing came downstairs.
Marian came to the window and watched Gu Yun's back disappear at the end of the night. This scene was quite like a hero who never returned it.
However, she had no intention of stopping Gu Yun. Since meeting with the black box, she hasn't had a good sleep for a long time.
It was also the appearance of the black box that made Marian realize that the natural disasters she had seen were not the end. The so-called natural disasters were just a general concept formulated by humans. However, even if they were also called natural disasters, there were differences in grades.
Even the minions left by the black box in this world left her helpless. It was hard for Marianne to imagine how powerful the black box was.
Moreover, she could not provide any help to Gu Yun.
She has been studying what the monsters in the forest all night these days, but after she read all the known documents, she could only conclude that it was a monster that did not exist in this world.
Before this, no one or supernatural creature had ever seen a similar monster.
…………………………
Just as Marian was restless, Gu Yun rolled up his sleeves and broke into the forest outside the cemetery.
To be honest, Gu Yun could not control his curiosity when he heard that there were minions that Marian could not deal with.
Theoretically, he and Marian were in a dream world constructed by dream spells. When he came here for the second time, he realized that this world was not just a Western-style house in Marian, but a complete and independent world.
There is a sea of forest at the edge of the cemetery. In the distance, it is surrounded by mountains. Only a layer of outline can be vaguely seen under the moonlight.
As for the forest itself, it is full of unknown atmosphere.
Since entering this forest, Gu Yun felt as if he was being watched by some creature, but he could also judge that there was no one, beast or even insect within a radius of hundreds of meters. There were only trees and various vegetation in this forest.
Everything around is dead silence, and just this feeling of loneliness is enough to awaken the deepest fear in people's hearts.
Even the leaves on the branches are still, without any evening breeze blowing. Although the vision is blocked by the heavy trees, it seems like there is nothing.
This absolute dead silence made Gu Yun recall a bad memory.
Late night, dreams, no one’s space…
These elements overlapped together, making his steps a little heavier. If his guess is correct, he is facing a monster that does not belong to this world.
In an instant, my hands and feet were cold and my steps were floating throughout my body.
In Gu Yun's life fighting against many monsters, only a few monsters can bring him an extremely deep impression, and the monsters in front of him can definitely be among the top three in his memory.
"Oh? Are you the helper hired by the little witch?"
A voice full of oppression came from Gu Yun in all directions. The moment he stopped, a huge eye appeared at Gu Yun's feet.
When he looked at his eyes, Gu Yun subconsciously clenched his fists.
Cold sweat fell.
Unexpectedly, the black box actually brought this monster to this world!
Among the many monsters, only a very small number will be named "God" by people - the God of Nightmare. This is the honorific title given to this monster by the locals.
Gu Yun's memory suddenly returned to the small mountain village he passed by. At that time, he had passed four trials, but he still paid a heavy price in the battle with the God of Nightmare...
The reason why it is named "God" is because the people who have lived in that small village for generations have completely lost the idea of confronting it, and can only worship it like a god. Every year, villagers are selected regularly and at a certain location to send them into the mountains as sacrifices. Otherwise, the god of nightmare will bring disaster and put everyone in a terrifying dream that will never wake up.
At that time, after hearing the legends circulating in the village, Gu Yun also broke into the residence of the God of Nightmare like now.
But he never expected that there was more than one Nightmare God!
"I smelled the breath of fear, but... your fear is different from others."
The voice that came from all directions continued, "Why... why didn't you run away after seeing me? Unless you recognize me and know that the entire dream world is under my control, it will be useless no matter where you escape... But, since you have seen my kind, why can you still come to me alive?"
The eyeballs on the ground looked at Gu Yun. Gu Yun did not reply, but he started to talk to himself alone.
"I see!"
After a moment, the God of Nightmare suddenly realized, "I understand that you should have reached some kind of agreement with my kind, and it let you go... Let me guess, is it to use a village as a sacrifice? Or a contract that will never be lifted."
"I have killed your kind."
"You killed my kind? Hahahahaha--"
The God of Nightmare seemed to have heard a huge joke, "In the dream world, we are gods, the creator who created everything, and an invincible existence! And, if you really killed my kind, why would you feel so afraid of me?"
"You ask me why I'm afraid?"
Gu Yun gritted his teeth and said that everything that happened at that time flashed back in front of him at this moment.
It was also late at night, and a bright moon hung high in the night sky.
What caught my eye was the blood, flesh and the remains of monsters.
That's right, he solved the legendary "God" as usual, but Gu Yun at that time never expected that it was just the beginning of a nightmare.
Even though so many years have passed, the feeling at that time still makes him remember it fresh, so once he recalls that past, his lower abdomen can't help but feel a little painful.
At that time, as usual, he started to set fire after the war. According to his mother-in-law's teachings, he put the scattered pieces of meat on a barbecue rack and sprinkled with the ingredients he had always carried with him.
Gu Yun looked down at his left hand with a pale face. At this moment, he seemed to be able to see the warm fire from the bonfire at that time and the tempting gravy emerging from the meat pieces.
But he never expected that everything was the conspiracy of the God of Nightmare.
The torture of the past is still vivid in my mind.
"Your kind..."
Gu Yun took a deep breath and suppressed the fear that surged into his heart, "It made me tamper with my stomach for a week!"
