Strange Voyage: Summoning the Fourth Disaster.

Chapter 664 Giants and Dwarfs

Li Miao successfully pulled the spider from the shore to the road-building spider mother.

When confronted with the Spider Mother's question, the man who went ashore raised an eyebrow.

He had just read the account of the nameless road repairman and roughly understood the story that had happened here. At the same time, he also figured out what Li Miao was thinking.

That brat is trying to trick him.

However, Shang An was indeed curious about what would happen if he agreed, so after thinking for a moment, he spoke up.

"Okay, I'll fix the road."

After saying that, he went ashore and glanced at the information notification bar.

However, there were no hints from the spirit candles, so the Spider Mother's inquiry didn't seem to be a special option.

"you……"

"..."

As expected, after hearing the answer that she had come ashore, the Spider Mother paused for a moment and then fell silent, as if her brain had crashed.

No matter how many times I asked after getting ashore, there was no response.

After a while, the Spider Mother's body suddenly twisted strangely, and then disappeared into the darkness.

Seeing this, he shrugged as he went ashore, not surprised at all.

Li Miao quickly pulled him back to the Soul Cleansing Night Pool, inquired about the situation, and after a few jokes on the shore, he told him the truth.

After listening, Li Miao couldn't help but ponder, "It seems that either the moment of extinction caused the Spider Mother of the Road to lose that contractual ability, or it's a bug in the Spirit Candle game."

Upon reaching the shore, he suddenly became quite clever: "It shouldn't be a bug, otherwise there would have been no warning at all."

"To be honest, I'm quite looking forward to making a pact with this Spider Queen and then trying to build a road."

He said with some regret.

"...Let's go. This nameless road repairman should just be a minor side story in the Long Night Divine Realm."

"The guidance of the spirit candles is becoming clearer and clearer; the milestone spirit candle should be just ahead."

As he spoke, Li Miao checked the time.

"Once this milestone candle is lit, it's about time to log off. We'll continue tomorrow."

"I wonder how the progress is going over there..."

Nodding as they reached the shore, the two continued along the path of the hero Alucard, and soon found the milestone candle that had guided them.

……

While Li Miao and his companion finished dealing with the road repair, Yuan Fang had already arrived at the Nightmare Route and explored it for quite some time.

The statue of the Long Night led him to a place completely different from the Long Night Divine Realm.

Nightmare

The place is shrouded in a gray haze, and the fog makes the environment appear chaotic. Looking at it for too long can even make people dizzy and disoriented.

Furthermore, this space exhibits a regular distortion; both the ground and the surrounding gray mist repeatedly contract and expand, much like... the breathing of some enormous being.

And the instant you enter this place.

Monsters began to gather in the distance.

These are a group of monsters called "Small Nightmares". They are generally grayish-white and semi-transparent, and they twist from time to time without a fixed shape.

This posed no obstacle for Yuanfang; he could easily eliminate it.

However, these miniature nightmares have a very troublesome characteristic: they revive very quickly and aim for distant places, constantly haunting him.

Therefore, after confirming that it was impossible to completely eradicate it, Yuanfang stopped investing energy in dealing with these minor nightmares.

After all, the damage the other party could inflict on him was extremely limited, and their movements were very slow. Apart from being somewhat annoying, they posed almost no threat.

Next, he tried out various props that might be useful.

But even Carlos's eyes were of no use.

After leaving the location of the milestone candle, Yuanfang chose a direction and began to explore.

The ever-expanding, shrinking nightmare house constantly hindered his progress. Fortunately, his sense of direction was still relatively strong, and he didn't get lost.

After a long and tedious journey, some unusual activity was finally detected in the distance.

boom! boom!
A tremendous rumbling sound came from ahead, as if a colossal creature was moving.

Interspersed among them were cries for help and screams of terror.

"Help! Help! Someone please save me!"

"No……"

"Woooooooo..."

Upon seeing this, Yuanfang stopped in his tracks and immediately ran towards the source of the sound.

Before long, the legs of a colossal giant formed from the power of nightmares appeared in front of him, and it kept taking steps forward without stopping.

That enormous sound came from there.

At the feet of this nightmare giant, a dwarf was running away with a sob in his voice, pleading for help.

However, the people in the distance did not rush to the rescue immediately.

Instead, he involuntarily stopped and frowned at the strange scene before him.

A giant chasing a dwarf seems like a perfectly reasonable thing.

But the strange thing is that the giants and dwarves seen from afar seem to be stuck in a fixed position, one standing still and the other running around but not moving at all.

They looked like two puppets being carried, repeating this process over and over again.

"Nightmare..."

A voice murmured from afar.

After a moment's hesitation, he stepped forward, ready to help the dwarf at the giant's feet.

But after taking only a couple of steps, he realized that he was like someone on a treadmill; although he was running, the distance between him and the dwarf didn't move an inch.

Yuanfang was not surprised by this. After a pause, he opened his mouth and shouted at the dwarf in the distance.

"This way!"

The sound from afar quickly reached the ears of the dwarves on the other side.

He was startled and instinctively looked towards the distance.

However, in that moment of distraction, the giant's foot crashed down like a collapsing mountain.

"what--"

The next moment, the terrified screams stopped abruptly.

At the same moment, the surrounding environment in the distance also shattered with a deafening roar...

……

Yuanfang felt as if he was being plunged into darkness uncontrollably, but his body's senses told him that his eyes were still closed.

A moment later, he opened his eyes and got up from the ground.

The milestone candle still hung behind him, and the surrounding environment changed from a gray haze to a mixture of black and gray, seemingly foreshadowing the harmonious coexistence of the power of the long night and nightmares.

The soil itself was quite normal; it looked like ordinary black soil.

However, besides this eerie environment, a nearly rotten supporting wooden pillar could be seen in the distance, as well as a broken wall beside them.

This is a dilapidated house.

There was a bonfire crackling ahead.

"you're awake."

As a rough voice rang out, the shadows in the dilapidated house stirred, and a massive body slowly stood up, walked to the distance, and sat down by the campfire.

This was a tall man wearing a tattered robe, with a thin face and hair like dry straw.
