Chapter 722 Hostages, Daydream

Celebrate? Opening champagne at halftime? That's a cardinal sin in warfare!

Da Chun quickly declined, "No, no, let's do it tomorrow night, I'm not finished yet."

Zhou Qing smiled and said, "Alright, then Brother Chun, take your time with your work."

After ending the call, Da Chun found himself being pushed into a small shed next to the warehouse, where he could hear the slow, leisurely sounds of garbage collectors starting their work.

Eileen immediately called the police: "The lighthouse has issued a warning!"

Huh? No way, it's noon in the game, and Nightmare is coming out?

Da Chun was on high alert: "All personnel on high alert!"

System notification: The lighthouse has detected a sleepwalker entering!
A sleepwalker? Vivian?
Ellen said, "First layer! We're about to break through the outer water sphere!"

Wait a minute, Vivian's sleepwalker directly connects to the third-level lighthouse and goes straight to the island lighthouse!

Da Chun made a quick decision: "I'll go check out the first floor first. You guys stay here and don't reveal your strength."

"it is good!"

Da Chun was quite confident in his current soul state, even if he couldn't win, he wouldn't be instantly killed.

The next moment, Da Chun appeared in the ruins of the first level.

After not visiting for many days, the first level had clearly accumulated more spiritual matter, becoming much wider and thicker, further highlighting the dark and desolate atmosphere of the ruins.

The first layer is positioned as the outermost barrier, the battlefield, and what's needed is solidity.

A series of lights floated in the sky above the water sphere, and a phantom dressed as a maid or cook gracefully descended!

Da Chun's eyes widened. It really was Vivian!?

Vivian laughed: "What's wrong? Haven't you seen me in my cook's outfit? I have some good news for you. After three days of preparation, my bread factory is about to open! I've been busy until the wee hours every night these past few days, so tired that I haven't even had time to think about you. Now that I'm finally done, I also heard that your ranking has improved, so I immediately had a drink to celebrate and took a nap, and then I dreamed about you!"

Da Chun's eyebrows twitched violently upon hearing this, but he pretended not to recognize him: "Who are you?"

Vivian panicked: "Darling, why are you like this! Last time you took me to Gem City in my dream!"

Holy crap! Does she need to prove to me that she is who she is?
Da Chun felt a chill run down his spine, his hair standing on end: "Who are you?"

Vivian's illusory figure floated directly in front of Da Chun, her face full of coquettish reproach: "Darling, look carefully!"

"Look carefully! Absolutely not her!! Not as scum as her, not as despicable as her! Even when I took her to Gem City and showed off my bunch of Grandmaster-level skills in front of Jenny, her shocked attitude changed to calling me her lover, but her attitude didn't become the slightest bit humble; she was still so despicable! It was as if it was only natural that I was qualified to pursue her if I was a Grandmaster..." Da Chun said, "Look carefully, who are you?"

Vivian laughed heartily: "Alright, you can call me Baron Vivian Daydream!"

A daydream!? A baron? This...

Da Chun instantly sensed the seriousness of the situation: "Please get to the point!"

"Vivian" said, "These past two days, the tranquility of Oak City has been shattered. Suddenly, an evil god puppet and its nightmare dragon appeared, and even went to the other three cities to show off. Then this nightmare dragon began attacking our race—"

Da Chun was shocked. It wasn't that it was talking about this, but rather why it was using Vivian's identity.
The other party continued: "—Until last night, we received uncertain news that this Nightmare Dragon is related to you, so I became interested, but I couldn't investigate you, so I went to Black Iron City to investigate your friend. Your best friend in the city is this Vivian, right? She was busy until late last night and was very tired, so she fell asleep immediately, and that's how I entered her. Do you understand?"

Da Chun couldn't hold back any longer: "Are you threatening me with my friend?"

Vivian laughed: "Friend? Clearly, it's my darling! You wouldn't want your darling to be tormented by me, would you?"

What should you do if you are held hostage and threatened?
How to do?
Da Chun instantly thought of all sorts of movie and TV show scenes: the female lead is manipulated, the male lead obediently puts down his weapon, either the protagonist has a happy ending or the female lead takes a bullet for the male lead... But that's just movies and TV shows!!!
All we can do now is stall for time and wait for Ellen to hear this and react, for example, by immediately sending Biliana to the tavern in the city to check on Vivian's situation.

Then, this is not a sealed space, but just a warehouse in an open area. Ellen can use the magic mirror to teleport me directly to Biliana's side, which is Vivian's side, and then rush in to catch her off guard. She will never expect that I have the magic mirror's super long-range mobility.
Da Chun sighed and slowly said, "I don't really understand. Why don't you just tell me directly if you have something to say? She can be her rich boss while I go to jail. She can have her baron lover while I still go to jail. You're using her to threaten me? Does that work?"

As he spoke, Da Chun activated the Beelzebub title to contact Nabchuanxi: "Arrange manpower at the garbage warehouse, make a big commotion, the bigger the better!"

After all, he was still being monitored by the three omniscient eyes of the Ten Elders. The Mirror Demon's teleportation would inevitably cause spatial fluctuations, so he had to create a big commotion to interfere with the omniscient eyes...

"Vivian" laughed heartily: "She heard it, oh, how heartbroken! You didn't actually think I was a complete imposter, did you? I just used her as a channel of thought to enter your consciousness so effortlessly. I must say, you truly deserve to be the newly promoted 10th strongest, you even possess a divine realm—hmm?"

At this point, Vivian's smile vanished: "I see! You were contacting Beelzebub!"

Holy crap!!! Is this the power of a Nightmare Baron?

"Vivian" said coldly, "So you've acquired Beelzebub's title! Those janitors outside are also Beelzebub, right? You also have quite a few treasures on you, which are very attractive to nightmares. It turns out Beelzebub is behind all this. But you're really overthinking it. You're just being used by Beelzebub. They openly announced that the Nightmare Dragon is related to you, just to use you as cannon fodder. And your lover, Miss Vivian, will be the first cannon fodder—anyway, it has nothing to do with you!"

Da Chun panicked: "No! I'm just a prisoner! I had no choice! Beelzebub came to me, so of course I clung to him like a lifeline. I know I'm being used, and I want to break free from his control! If you think I have value, you can talk to me properly! I'll cooperate with any suggestions you have!"

Vivian smiled and said, "That's right, that's why I came to find you—"

Before he could finish speaking, a loud scream came from outside the wall, along with the roar of a vehicle engine—then the wall crashed with a loud bang, and Da Chun, wheelchair and all, was thrown away by a tremendous force!
The entire divine realm trembled violently!
Now's the time! Pretend to faint, log off, and stop wasting your breath talking to this phantom!
Da Chun immediately returned to the manor: "Eileen, I need to teleport there—"

Ellen immediately said, "Bilianna has already teleported to her position! Sina, the Goddess and her seven little Andariels are also ready!"
