Under Yueyong City, there is...

A city!

A city belonging to ghouls.

When I first heard the news, even Anle was a little surprised.

But after repeatedly checking the memories of the one-eyed ghoul, he still confirmed this.

To be precise, it is not under the city of Yueyong City in reality, but... under the city of Yueyong City in this dream.

Some people may think that if it is just a city in a dream, what's the big deal?

If it is just a dream for ordinary people, it is just an activity in their minds. Whether it is dreaming of a rabbit (meow) girl senior, a electronic sheep, or beating a leader in the company in a dream, or doing something indescribable to the goddess in their minds... it is just a pure dream.

It will not endanger others, it only exists in personal thinking.

However, in this world, once it is connected with extraordinary characteristics, things will no longer be ordinary.

Don't get close to extraordinary, otherwise you will become unfortunate.

Even though this sentence is a bit extreme, it still makes some sense.

In general, when the dreamer realizes that he is dreaming, he will wake up from the dream.

To be more extreme, you can wake up by suicide.

However, in this dream, it is different.

Anle learned from Sele that if the extraordinary person commits suicide here, it is very likely that he will never wake up again in reality.

At least, it will also allow a part of the soul to stay here forever.

Dreams that are contaminated with extraordinary characteristics are both illusory and real.

Illusion means that dreams do not exist in reality, and people outside the dream cannot touch this world.

Truth means that everything a person who is pulled into a dream appears extremely real and almost impossible to distinguish the difference between reality.

The damage suffered in dreams will also be fed back to reality to a certain extent.

The rumors that a ghoul's brain will turn into a ghoul when eaten by a ghoul in a dream are not fake.

Such a huge space and envelops the dream of the entire city, the effect it can produce is extremely terrifying.

Just imagine, if it pulls in not only Anle and other people who accidentally enter the alley, but residents of the entire Yueyong City...

Thinking of this, Anle was stunned.

He remembered the fragments of the blood holy artifacts again. Is there any connection between them and the appearance of the ghoul?

*******

Follow the road in memory, move towards the alleys in the daytime.

There, perhaps there was an opportunity to get rid of this dream.

And along the way, Anle encountered more ghouls.

Such creatures have an extremely keen perception of living flesh and blood, just like sharks smelling blood, and can't wait to rush to the humans who accidentally entered their paradise.

However, in fact, they are just impatient to die.

Any road passing through happiness will leave different amounts of broken meat, making it difficult to piece together a complete corpse.

The blood splashed out dyed the ground red.

In addition to those low-level ghouls with certain intellectual levels, there are many animals in the city that are similar to the mutant mice seen during the day. They have some characteristics of ghouls, which are cruel, aggressive, and naturally hostile to living creatures.

The number of these mutated animals is even above the ghouls.

Happy treats them equally and gives them death in the most rude way.

If you are happy in normal times and in reality, you will most likely choose to move forward in secret. Without being discovered by them, you will never be able to go to your destination like now, like a reckless man rushing around and cleaning up the obstacles you encounter in front of you.

Even "kill all the enemies" can be regarded as a perfect stealth.

But as he was beaten up by Anle, more and more ghouls and mutant creatures were killed, he began to enjoy this feeling more and more, and even called it... happy?

It was also in a subtle way that Anle's personality gradually changed in an indescribable direction.

The noise he caused naturally disturbed other existences in the city.

*******

Dongno Asuka's expression was a little dazed, looking out the window in confusion... Where is this?

It had been ten minutes since she woke up, but Asuka Tono still couldn't figure out the situation.

The familiar arrangement in this bedroom proves that this is her home.

However, there were no younger brothers and sisters in this small house, which seemed a little spacious and no longer as cramped as usual.

The street outside the window was even more silent.

You should know that although the place where Asuka Tono lives is in the main urban area, it is in an area with poor security, and drunks and homeless people are often wandering outside.

Asuka Tono instinctively alerted to these abnormalities, but her mind was hazy, as if something sticky was stuck in her mind, and her thinking slowed down.

Not everyone can realize that they are dreaming like Anle, when they wake up.

Fortunately, as time goes by, this symptom is gradually alleviating.

‘Here, it is…’

The only remaining Ching Ming sanity tells Tono Asuka that the best way to do now is to not do anything.

If you rashly explore the outside world, you might be in danger.

‘My extraordinary power has disappeared?’

Asuka Tono used his slow thinking to experience his own state.

I found that her control over perception was much weaker, no different from that of ordinary people.

This made Asuka Tono slightly uneasy, but she could barely remain calm - her extraordinary power was not used for combat, and she did not rely too much on this ability in normal times, so she was not panicked.

Asuka Tono fumbled around the bed for a moment and found the pistol and bullets she placed here.

"ah!!!"

Before Tono Asukatsu breathed a sigh of relief, she suddenly heard an extremely miserable scream outside the window, which scared her to tremble all over.

‘What is this sound?’

This scream is different from any sound that Tono Asuka has ever heard.

The voice is sharp and the tone is extremely fast, and it is filled with a great sense of fear. This emotion is contagious and the person who hears it will also feel chill.

‘This kind of sound is definitely not something that humans can make.’

Asuka Tono carefully walked to the bedside, pulled the curtains apart, and observed the scene not far away through the gap.

"No, don't kill me! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

"Monster! He is a monster!"

“No—No—”

“…”

The sharp, extremely fast scream sounded again, and there were more than one.

Tono Asuka could barely tell the content of their calls, and was surprised.

‘It’s not the person who screams, then the monster in their mouths is…’

She opened her eyes wide and tried to observe the outside world under the faint moonlight.

Due to the distance and the dim light, Asuka Tono can only see some floating and wandering black shadows, as well as some fragments of unknown things, as if... there is still liquid splashing?

But soon, Asuka Tono widened her eyes and felt like she was pausing in her heart.

With a "bang", a black shadow fell not far outside the window, making the sound of watermelon being smashed.

With the moonlight, Asuka Tono can see its appearance clearly.

It was a human-like head, with cruelty and irritable eyes, sharp teeth shining with cold light, gelatinous skin, and dirty fungus.

However, it is such a terrible monster that is inhuman.

Its head was pulled out from above its neck, and its viscous and dark red blood was still flowing out, and the juice was oozing out like a pinched tomato, and it could only lose its breath after twitching.

And the expression on its face is nothing but fear.

"Um!"

Before the screams trembled from the vocal cords in his throat, Tono Asuka tightly covered her mouth.

She turned around, hid behind the curtains, and tried her best to calm her mood.

Where is this?

What's going on with that monster?
