Forbidden Nightmare

Chapter 5 The Withering of the Bloody Rose
Li Nanke's face was gloomy, and he picked up his only weapon now - a hideous and rough saw blade wrapped in blood-stained bandages.

The saw blade is shaped like an ordinary broad-bladed, thick-backed machete, except that it has thick and sharp teeth cast on the edge. Although the saw blade looks primitive and rough, it has an excellent ability to cut bones and flesh, and is one of the standard weapons for monk apprentices.

Just place the saw blade on the neck and apply slight force to cut the trachea and sever the carotid artery.

If autonomous disconnection does not work, you can also force disconnection from the synchronization, which is... death in the dream.

The most terrifying thing in a dream is not death, but being unable to leave the dream and being lost in it forever. In reality, it means becoming a vegetative person who has lost all consciousness.

Under the influence of such a high synchronization rate, the fictional body in the dream will suffer death. Even if it is not a death by torture, dismemberment or other methods that would cause great pain, it will still cause considerable trauma to the mind and the real body.

But at the moment, it is the most sensible and correct thing to do to stop the loss in time.

But when the saw blade was placed on the neck and the sharp teeth pierced the skin, what came was not only severe pain, but also a great and unprecedented fear of death!
My heart was beating like a drum, and it seemed to be about to jump out of my chest. My skin was covered with goose bumps and my hair stood on end. My primitive instinct roared at the top of its lungs, warning me: This is not a fictitious body in a dream, this is your body! You can’t commit suicide, you must not commit suicide, you will die, you will definitely die!

Li Nanke only felt his lips dry and his throat tight. He held the saw blade tightly against his neck with his palms, but he was unable to exert any force to cut.

Is all this really just a dream?

After a long stalemate, he dropped his hands helplessly.

At this moment, the synchronization program prompt sound came, and the bloody text appeared again!
[One of the current monk apprentices has died, and the remaining dreamers are 4/5]

[Key point 1: Go to the church in Abbes Town for refuge. ]

[Guiding motto from the 'Great Other Shore': Dreamers, all those who attempt to quit by suicide will regret their foolish actions... No, those who are eliminated may have lost the qualification to regret forever.]

[You know exactly what you should do, don't you? ]

Li Nanke's pupils suddenly shrank.

The dreamer, the key node, the other side...

Am I not the only participant in this dark dream?
As the so-called guiding motto says, he knows exactly what to do next.

Without considering dream death, there is only one last and only way to end a dream.

That is, deeply experience this weird and extremely abnormal dark dream, and follow the step-by-step guidance of key nodes until the final node as the ending of the dream is completed.

If this dark dream has a final node...

"Are you going to seek refuge in the church in Abbes Town?"

Suddenly, a woman's shrill scream was heard outside the house.

Li Nanke glanced at the door that was blocked by heavy objects, walked to the window, lifted a corner of the curtain, and looked out...

The sky was dark and overcast, and the drizzle seemed like it would never stop.

The houses along the street are old and mottled, mostly made of gray-black bricks and stones, with arched supports and spindle-shaped columns of railings. The buildings generally have spires and chimneys, and can be seen in a very obvious Victorian style, just like an English town in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

In the central square of the town, there stands a tall sculpture, which looks like a candlestick with seven candles, or a heptagon. The candles and forks are of different lengths, gradually shortening from both sides to the middle.

The naked red-haired woman was tied to the long 'halberd handle' of the sculpture, and the scream just now came from her.

This female monk with enlarged breasts, a thin waist, plump buttocks and long legs had horrific wounds all over her body. The most serious wound was on her flat abdomen, where her intestines and internal organs were exposed by a hideous cut.

Lady Liliana is famous among many armed monks for her beauty, but everyone knows that the power of this armed monk does not come from her pretty face. Her power is built on the bloody violence of the wailing and tragic deaths of many heretics.

That's why she has frightening titles like 'Bloody Rose' and 'Bloodthirsty Nun'.

But this powerful female monk was surrounded by many figures at this moment, and weapons such as harpoons, spears, and sickles pierced her body one by one.

A can of kerosene doused her from head to toe, and a blazing flame suddenly appeared, illuminating the guns and weapons scattered around the sculpture, as well as the gloomy figures, amid Ms. Liliana's miserable wails.

The indigenous residents of the town had numb and indifferent eyes, with a hint of beast-like madness in their expressions. They had no mercy on the woman who was burning in the flames.

When the flames died down and the woman was completely charred, the indigenous residents slowly retreated, their figures slowly disappearing into one dark alley after another...

Li Nanke watched all this with an expressionless face. He took a deep breath and looked at the guns and weapons scattered around the statue in the square.

The standard weapons of those armed monks are all synonymous with violence, terror and destruction.

The thermite rifle has two barrels, one large and one small. The ammunition is thermite wrapped in steel balls. After hitting the target, the bullets will scatter into a mist of glowing metal flakes. Then the ignition bullet ejected from the small barrel will turn the entire crystal mist into a rain of metal fire, bringing ultra-high temperature combustion that no creature can resist.

In addition to the thermite rifle, blaster rifle, and two pistols, there is also a fierce melee weapon next to the sculpture - a chainsaw sword.

This extremely violent melee weapon can cause horrific damage to the enemy through the high-speed rotation of the saw teeth. However, the chainsaw sword is not equipped with a power source, so only formal armed monks can use it.

If he could get the thermite rifle and the blaster rifle, his combat capability and chance of survival in the Black Dream would be greatly improved.

After all, at this time, Li Nanke was not a real monk apprentice. He was controlling his own body, a weak body with numb limbs and lung infection.

After experiencing various dreams, the extremely high synchronization enabled him to learn a lot of fighting experience and weapon combat skills, but now, only firearms can bring out his true strength!
Although Li Nanke wanted to get the guns, he understood that the weapons scattered around the sculptures must not be taken.

Suddenly he felt something and looked at the corner of the street through the gap in the curtains.

The door of an old house opened quietly, and a figure walked out, bending over and moving forward cautiously.

The figure groped his way towards the sculpture in the town square step by step...

Li Nanke looked at the man carefully, and his eyes gradually became cold.

"idiot!"
