After being universally criticized online, I went viral on military-themed variety shows.

Chapter 874 Even a fleeting illusion couldn't bear to harm him? Nightmare
The person in front of him leaned closer, blinked lightly, frowned, raised his hand to touch his face, and replied, "I was sleeping and I felt that something was wrong with you, so I thought I'd pull you in to see what was going on."

"fine."

"Are you really okay?"

Li Chengxiao raised his hand to cover the hand that was on his face, grasped it, and just as the person was about to press close to him, he suddenly flung it to the side.

Caught off guard, the person in front of him stumbled and looked up in disbelief, exclaiming, "You dumped me!"

Li Chengxiao finally found an opportunity to reach the dagger tucked into his waistband and pulled it out.

The familiar eyes in front of him widened even more. "You still want to kill me?"

Li Chengxiao raised the dagger, but instead turned his head and stabbed it into his other arm.

"laugh!"

The sound of a sharp weapon piercing through clothing and flesh echoed clearly in the space. Li Chengxiao took one last look at the stiffened face, then turned and left.

I had only taken a few steps when my nerves received a signal of injury, and a sharp pain came from the wound.

Back in reality, Li Chengxiao suddenly opened his eyes and saw Yue Qingfeng sitting cross-legged opposite him, smiling as he looked over. He lowered his head, pulled out the dagger that was still stuck in his arm, and began to bandage the wound methodically.

A curious yet annoying voice suddenly rang out from the other end: "The Nightmare's copying ability is quite powerful. How did you realize something was wrong so quickly? Besides, it's just a phantom formed from a wisp of Nightmare energy. You can't even bear to hurt it?"

Li Chengxiao was too lazy to reply to him. After bandaging his wound, he got up briskly, walked behind Feng Buyi who was lying not far away, pursed his lips, and kicked him in the butt. He was sure that it would hurt but not hurt him too badly. At most, it would just be swollen for a few days.

Feng Buyi was enjoying a rare moment of kindness from his usually strict grandfather when he was kicked to the ground and yelled, clutching his backside and cursing, "Who kicked me?"

Upon opening his eyes, he saw Captain Li looking at him expressionlessly. "Young Master?"

"No, no, no," Feng Buyi stood up, grimacing. "You're the boss. Wait, allow me to ask a small question: why did you kick me?"

Li Chengxiao replied with "See for yourself," then turned and walked towards the bear and the doctor, who were supposed to be on night watch but were now fast asleep.

Seeing that the two of them were asleep but still had slightly furrowed brows, I lifted my foot and did the same thing.

Feng Buyi, who followed, suddenly felt at peace!

Then they realized something was wrong, "Why is everyone asleep?"

Big Bear and the doctor scrambled to their feet, and were immediately embarrassed when they met the captain's cold gaze.

"Captain, we..."

"Something's up. Go wake up the rest of the team first."

After giving instructions to Da Xiong and the doctor, Li Chengxiao quickly walked over to Gu Xi's team.

Feng Buyi, who had followed silently, thought: "We can't kick your butt again this time, can we?"

Li Chengxiao did not kick her again. Instead, he squatted down and rummaged through the first-aid kit. He finally found a strip of anti-inflammatory medicine, swallowed two pills dry, then took out another one, opened the capsule, and then pried open Gu Xi's mouth with one hand and poured the powder inside the capsule down her throat.

Seeing that Deputy Captain Gu was frowning from the pain in his sleep, Feng Buyi silently swallowed.

He felt that it would be better to be kicked!

"Ugh, it tastes so bitter!"

Gu Xi opened her eyes and immediately looked for water. Li Chengxiao handed her a bottle of mineral water that he had opened beforehand. He watched as she took it and gulped down most of the bottle in one go, her brows still furrowed tightly. Before she could be questioned, he preemptively said, "Everyone is trapped in a dream."

Gu Xi was taken aback at first, but quickly realized what she meant. "Damn, each move is more insidious than the last!" she cursed with a bitter face, smacking her lips as she felt the bitterness still lingering. "What did you just give me to eat?"

Li Chengxiao pointed to the capsule shells lying to the side, "The powder from the anti-inflammatory medicine." Gu Xi: "..."

I recognized her from her eyes; this was someone who knew her Achilles' heel!
The key is that the other party did this to save her, and she couldn't even curse at them.

He could only get up and call his teammates to vent his anger.

After the team members were all woken up, they had a brief conversation and discovered that the dreams that had trapped them were all pretty much the same.

This time, unlike the previous white mist that would lure you into its depths if you harbored desires, it was just as thrilling. It could evoke the softest part of your heart in every way, making you want to linger even if you subconsciously realized it was a dream, unless there was a strong external stimulus.

Gu Xi suddenly turned to look at Li Chengxiao's arm, which, although bandaged, still had some blood seeping through: "Did you bandage this yourself?"

She had sensed something was wrong in her dream, but she couldn't even bring herself to stab herself, let alone slap herself.

Li Chengxiao pursed his lips and nodded, "Go and call the rest of the people."

"Alright, get to work!"

This time, we can't worry about whether the way we wake people up is respectful; waking them up is the most important thing.

Fortunately, after waking up a few, the remaining ones were taken care of by those who had been woken up.

In less than half an hour, everyone at the scene was woken up and sat in a circle, with the smell of burning talismans still lingering in the air.

"What are your thoughts on this matter?"

Li Chengxiao glanced at Yue Qingfeng, who was mingling in the crowd with his eyes downcast and as inconspicuous as ever, then looked at the solemn faces around him, a deep thought forming in his eyes.

Once again, only Yue Qingfeng remained completely unaffected, and even knew what had attacked them.

Nightmare!

This time, the nightmare didn't seem as dangerous as the white mist from last time, and the people present suffered basically no losses.

But I was woken up in time!
Last time, at least more than half of the people managed to resist the attack in time, but this time, all of them, including him and his teammates, were quietly pulled into a dream.

Fortunately, this time the nightmare was so overconfident that it disguised itself as its own sword spirit, which made him quickly realize something was wrong, wake himself up in time, and then wake up the others.

Otherwise, what would be the consequences if I continued to sleep?
And will this tactic only be used once?

Will anyone still dare to let themselves fall asleep after this?
A person can die if they don't sleep for a long time!

By the time they came to their senses, the discussion had already begun.

"Have you all noticed that, whether it was the white mist last time or the dream this time, it was all targeting our spirit, and our bodies were not damaged at all?"

"But that's what's most difficult to guard against. Everyone has desires, and I admit I'm no exception. And then there are dreams. You dream as soon as you fall asleep. How can you resist that?"

"I forgot one thing: it can also induce sleep. I was meditating, and I fell asleep without realizing it."

"Captain Li."

Li Chengxiao turned his head to look at the white-haired, youthful-looking old Taoist priest sitting to the side, "Taoist Zhang."

"Captain Li, you were the first among us to wake up. Could you tell us how you managed to sense something was wrong and break free from the dream's control?"

In an instant, dozens of pairs of eyes turned to look at them with great interest.

I really can't resist going to sleep!
