Dimension Paradise, I am a summoning apostle

Chapter 319 Nightmare Walker - Maggot Man

After the avatar of Azure Flame departed, the Ghostly Pattern lost its most powerful reliance.

“Your faith doesn’t seem devout enough,” Delapour said with a smile.

Actually, Youwen's treatment is already very good.

After the ritual, a deity descends in person, often bestowing blessings upon you directly, much like the goddess of cats.

It's not up to believers, who are just ordinary people, to ask for things.

Unfortunately, it was still a little short. If Youwen had been able to use the mature green flame fluorescence as a sacrifice, then they would all have died here today.

"I think this is a misunderstanding." Youwen's gaze subtly shifted to Chu Danqing.

Derapole is very powerful, but if he wants to escape, he only needs to pay a sufficient price.

What he truly feared was Chu Danqing, who was also a 'Nightmare Walker'.

Chu Danqing also noticed this situation, so he immediately said, "Mr. Delapour, don't waste words with him, make your move!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Guo Ming made the first move.

Youwen immediately took action to defend herself. After her bloodline concentration increased, she not only gained strength but also received rewards from the series of quests.

Although Guo Ming's sword blasted away a large number of maggots, it blocked Guo Ming's attack.

He is indeed Tier 2, but he is a top-tier Nightmare Walker within Tier 2, and fighting opponents of higher tiers is commonplace for him.

Therefore, he fought Guo Ming to a standstill, and then he was ganged up on and attacked.

Guo Ming wasn't the only one present; there was also a whole group from the Norris family.

The leader, Deraper, was even stronger than Guo Ming, and he beat Guo Ming so badly that Guo Ming had to run away with his tail between his legs.

As for revealing information about the Nightmare Space and then returning?
There's no such thing as a free lunch. If anyone dares to leak even a little bit of information about the space, they'll be wiped out without any discussion.

Otherwise, how could it bear the name "nightmare"?

Youwen wanted to escape, but he couldn't escape at all.

However, because his original maggot bloodline concentration increased, he lost his fatal weakness.

Therefore, they appeared particularly fierce during the battle.

As long as one maggot survives, he can regenerate and recover by devouring rotting corpses.

But the person in front of me, Derapur, clearly knows some of the characteristics of the maggots, and the person wielding the sword in front of me is capable of large-area damage.

He couldn't even keep the maggot on his body alive; the situation was becoming increasingly dangerous.

A malevolent glint appeared in Youwen's eyes, which were made of maggots. He wanted to reveal information about the Nightmare Space and drag Chu Danqing, the 'Nightmare Walker,' down with him.

In the end, both of them will be wiped out by the Nightmare Space, and there will be no winners.

The idea is good, but it's not something he can just say whenever he wants.

Just as he was about to speak, Guo Ming pierced his mouth with four flying swords, which then emerged from the back of his head.

The four flying swords twisted simultaneously, instantly shredding the entire head to dust, and tearing all the maggots apart with the sword energy.

Delapour quickly filled in, his claws slashing down and tearing apart most of the body.

Guo Ming was getting anxious at this point, because too much interference from the indigenous people would lead to a decrease in rewards.

Seeing this, he did not hesitate to control the four flying swords to spin around and instantly plunge them into Youwen's body.

Then, the four flying swords were detonated, and the maggot-like body with the dark patterns was instantly engulfed by the sword energy, becoming utterly dead.

At the moment Youwen died, Chu Danqing also received a notification from Paradise.

[You killed one Nightmare Walker and obtained a Bloodstained Chest, but because it's part of a Secret Invasion mission, the reward will not be claimed at this time.]

[Please note: Each Nightmare Walker you defeat will add 1 layer of Blood Rune to this Blood Chest. The more Blood Runes you have, the greater the rewards and privileges you will receive when you open it.]

[You have been detected to have killed one Nightmare Walker. Removing the Nightmare Walker's ID is in progress.]

[Stripping successful, you have acquired a disguised identity: Nightmare Walker]

[Please note: This identity can only be applied to Nightmare Walkers]

[Please note: This identity cannot be identified through Nightmare Space. Please do not speak in public chat channels; you can only view.]

Chu Danqing looked at the series of words that appeared on the screen of the amusement park.

In addition, there's the change in the panel; his panel seems to have been completely disguised as the panel format possessed by the Nightmare Walker.

Furthermore, it activated a chat channel, but not the Dimensional Paradise's chat channel. Instead, the Paradise used this identity to infiltrate the Nightmare Space chat channel of this trial world.

They have identities, but they are rather limited.

However, it also relieved him of his worries, as he no longer had to worry about the problems that would arise if his identity were exposed.

As for failing to pass the Nightmare Space's identification, that's normal; Chu Danqing was just a secret intruder, not a spy.

Their actions were more akin to sabotage behind enemy lines.

They certainly won't receive such high-level treatment in terms of permissions.

This identity not only applies to him, but also further strengthens the identities of the three brothers, Da Bao, Guo Ming, and Yang Qianyuan.

However, the art styles of Chu Danqing and his group are always different from those of Nightmare Walker.

Are the Nightmare Walkers not normal people? Whether they are even human is another matter.

Just like the Nightmare Walker he killed, he could understand the desire to pursue strength, but seeing him like this was indeed a bit frightening.

If it weren't maggots...

After Youwen's death, the Norris family members began to clean up the mess. Delapour, on the other hand, was calculating the losses.

Although Yang Qianyuan had reminded them beforehand, they had moved a lot of things in advance.

However, in order to confuse Youwen, they still left a lot of things as a cover.

These things were all destroyed when the incarnation of the Azure Flame descended.

In particular, all the equipment used to build temporary camps has been lost.

"How much damage did you suffer?" Chu Danqing asked as he walked over. He wanted a rough estimate so that he could use the money to make up for it after he inherited the title.

After all, the Norris family had helped him a lot.

“The losses are considerable, but still within an acceptable range.” Delapour, of course, was unaware of Chu Danqing’s thoughts, so he gave a rough estimate.

After saying that, he added, "But it's okay, we can make up for some of the losses from the Green Flame Winter Song Society."

The Green Flame Winter Song Society was almost completely wiped out. Perhaps one or two might remain, but they are no match for them.

The Norris family could easily plunder its wealth.

However, the reason why it is described as a certain loss rather than a windfall is because the two sides worship different deities, and the various resources they collect cannot be shared.

Chu Danqing's catnip can make the goddess of cats descend in her avatar. If it were any other deity, they would not only not bestow blessings, but ignoring you would be the best outcome. They might even eat you as food.

Therefore, for the Norris family, the most useful currency in the Green Flame Winter Song Society is probably the currency of the Golden Eagle Federation.

“Perfect timing, I’m free anyway, why don’t you have some of your people come with me?”

"If there's anything I need, I'll just take it. I'll give it to you in cash when I inherit the estate," Chu Danqing said.

These resources must be high-quality materials or equipment. Since they belong to the enemy, Chu Danqing will not be polite.

“Mr. William, you’re too kind. Take whatever you want; there’s no need to talk about cash.” Delapour said, “If it weren’t for your advisors and scholars, the entire Norris family would no longer exist.”

Delapour was so grateful to Chu Danqing that he wouldn't possibly ask for money.

It wasn't just the intelligence provided by Yang Qianyuan, but also his help in finding the hot cocoa cup.

If there's any fault to speak of, it all started because Green Flame Winter Song captured their kittens. What does that have to do with Chu Danqing?

Not only were they unwilling to admit their mistakes, but they also wanted to use them as sacrifices, so no matter how they tried to persuade Chu Danqing, they couldn't get anything out of him.

As for the claim that the person who did the work wasn't the club president, Richards? Youwen is also a member of the Green Flame Winter Song Society, and the person who did the work was also a member of the society.

"I'm so grateful to you, how could I possibly accept money from you?" After saying that, Delapour arranged for a dozen or so young men from the Norris family to accompany Chu Danqing to confiscate the property.

This is enough for him.

“I know the location of the Green Flame Winter Song Society. I’ll lead the way.” Yang Qianyuan then completed his divination.

This time, we had a lot of information, so the results of our deductions, while not entirely accurate, were about 80-90% correct.

When they left, they took not only the able-bodied men with them, but also some of the cats.

With Yang Qianyuan leading the way and Da Bao assisting, the group quickly found the location of the Green Flame Winter Song Society.

It is a theater in the Aurora Town.

Naturally, forming an association requires a public cover-up.

The theater was actually losing money every day, but it was only thanks to the financial support of the association that it was able to stay afloat.

Since most of the members were dead, only a few guards remained to stand watch.

He was killed by members of the Norris family the moment they met.

Then these members, along with the cat, skillfully began to plunder.

Clearly, Green Flame Winter Song was not the first mysterious force that the Norris family caravan had destroyed during their trade.

As for Chu Danqing, he wandered around in circles without knowing what he was searching for.

Fortunately, Yang Qianyuan was there, and he quickly identified the most valuable item through divination.

I took Chu Danqing to get it immediately.

After many twists and turns, they arrived at a secluded room belonging to the Green Flame Winter Song Society.

Judging from the layout of the room, it is a bedroom, and specifically, the bedroom of the company president, Richards.

Chu Danqing knew this because there was a photo of Richards on her bedside table.

"Found it, that's it." Yang Qianyuan and Chenming Zhufei worked together to take out a book from a hidden compartment.

"It's a skill passed down through generations, and it's also related to the Azure Flame."

As he spoke, Yang Qianyuan handed it to Chu Danqing.

[Skill Book: Book of Corrupted Stars]

[Type: Inherited Skills]

【quality:? ? ? 】

[Effect: Grants the inheritance of the Book of Corrupted Stars upon use, ???]

[Learning Requirements: Maximum sanity 500, possess Fire Mastery LV.MAX, possess Faith Mastery LV.MAX or Faith in Azure Flame, possess a Mythical Creature talent]

In some ways, this Book of Corroded Stars is much more anthropomorphic than the Book of Buried Bones.

The most demanding condition is probably possessing the talent of a mythical creature.
