Dream Travel

Chapter 301 Union
“I know the common problems of experience-based dreamwalkers.” Retracting her Imperial Arms glove, Evereya was not angry at White Veil’s words.

The experience-based dream walkers often have a white screen, which isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Even with just a glimpse, the fact that Bai Mu can achieve such a level of expertise in this area makes working with him even more comfortable.

"Alright, I'll bring back more materials on Awakened Ones." After resting for a day in Luoguduo Town and recovering his energy, Bai Mu set off immediately.

In the northern part of the island, the Awakened Ones have already integrated. The island is not large, and with the physical abilities of the Awakened Ones, they can cross the two ends of the island in a day.

"Those greatswords have already begun hunting us down. If you don't want to be killed, you'd better unite."

Livlu stared at the Awakened gathered here, her expression grim. The reason she expanded her territory was largely due to her insecurity.

The Silver King, who originally occupied the north, ran away, catching Livlu completely off guard. Afterwards, she tried to obtain information from the organization's old site.

However, most of the awakened ones who were sent there never returned, and those who did return did not obtain any useful information.

After conducting his investigation there, Isley apparently cleaned up the organization's old site again.

Extremely uneasy, Livlu thought about expanding her territory and strengthening her power to deal with the upcoming crisis.

And those greatswords, although the organization is gone and the number of greatswords will only decrease, those greatswords have changed their strategy.

It even underwent inexplicable development in the town of Luoguduo, a development that instilled genuine fear in Livru.

She plans to accumulate enough power to destroy the town of Luoguduo, completely severing the future of all the greatswords, or at the very least, forcing them to fully awaken and become one of her kind.

However, during this period, even more Awakened Ones died, and those Greatswords became difficult to capture, leading to the development of even more dangerous weapons in Luoguduo Town.

The weapons they use are far more dangerous than bows and crossbows, and also pose a threat to the Awakened.

According to Livlu's statistics, the number of Awakened has decreased by more than half in the past year...

Isley took many Awakened with him when he fled, and there were also a lot of Awakened who thought that since the organization was gone, they could die recklessly.

The remaining Awakened Ones weren't very powerful. She killed some of the disobedient ones, since leaving those disobedient Awakened Ones unchecked might have been a hindrance, so killing them sooner was a good thing.

Although weaker awakened beings are obedient, their effectiveness is still limited.

Fortunately, there are still some powerful Awakened Ones here...

The awakened ones gathered here fell silent. During this time, they had truly felt threatened, especially after what happened in the south a few days ago.

During this period, although many Awakened Ones died, most of them died because of their own recklessness or for other reasons.

While the greatswords do eliminate Awakened Ones, they don't specifically seek them out.

Greatsword will only go to clean up after awakened beings cause a big commotion somewhere; if things are peaceful, Greatsword will not actively seek out trouble for them.

At first, the Awakened Ones didn't think much of it. The organization was finished, and those greatswords would only become fewer and fewer, with more and more becoming their kind.

They could have just watched quietly, but the development of Luoguduo Town made them uneasy. The products that were ahead of their time posed a real threat to the awakened ones.

Then those who couldn't stand the threats and acted impulsively all died.

A few days ago, the Awakened Ones active in the south were completely wiped out. They did not witness the situation there firsthand, but those Awakened Ones with good perception could sense the demonic aura that was no less powerful than that of the Abyss Ones.

When did greatsword warriors become this powerful?

Before awakening, the greatsword is inferior to the awakened one in most aspects, especially in terms of demonic energy.

Awakened greatswords are not weak in terms of demonic energy. If there were stats like panel stats, even a greatsword that was weak at the beginning would have stronger demonic energy than the top-ranked greatswords after awakening.

However strong they are, whether they can actually win is another matter entirely.

But no matter what, a warrior with strong demonic energy is definitely not weak.

A greatsword warrior comparable to the Abyss Warrior, how strong must he be?
The Awakened Ones gathered here had no objections to Livru's proposal due to the unprecedented threat.

“Luciela is dead, Isley is missing, and with our strength, we are not enough to deal with those greatswords,” said a young awakened girl who looked like a noble lady.

There are quite a few awakened individuals gathered here, but only a handful are truly capable of fighting.

According to the latest intelligence she has gathered, more than half of the awakened ones here would be cannon fodder compared to the most powerful among those greatsword warriors.

Not to mention the new weapons that have been developed in Luoguduo Town.

Weapons that can fire projectiles are more threatening than bows and crossbows, and more importantly, the people in that town are not at all averse to greatswords!

An ordinary person working with a greatsword poses a greater threat to an awakened being.

If the three Abysses were still intact, a joint effort could have completely razed Logudo Town to the ground. But now, only Livru remains of the three Abysses.

Even if the remaining awakened ones are brought together, it is not certain that they can win this war.

They might win, but the price the awakened ones would pay would be devastating.

"So we need to find an opportunity to awaken the greatsword with the strongest demonic aura." Livlu did not deny the awakener's words. The other party was named Octavia, a veteran warrior who was very strong after awakening and often gathered intelligence related to the organization.

She was the one who first brought out the news of the organization's demise, but at that time, out of caution, she did not have much contact with the organization's former site.

After all, the greatswordsmen were all gathered there at the time, and if her tracks were exposed, she would die there too.

Octavia excels at long-distance travel and is well-suited for intelligence gathering. However, the town of Logudo is a fortified territory, and although she has gathered some intelligence there, it is limited.

All we know is that the development there is completely different from other places; they're not even in the same era anymore.

If Luoguduo Town continues to develop, humans may be able to easily deal with the Awakened without the need for Greatsword Warriors.

Octavia's sharing of this intelligence made Livru even more uneasy. Hiding was useless, so she decided to take the initiative.

"Even without awakening, it possesses a demonic aura comparable to that of an Abyss Being. Once it awakens, the subsequent events will no longer be up to you."

Another alluring Awakened spoke up. She was also an Awakened whom Livlu valued, and like Octavia, she was once the organization's No. 2 warrior.

Although they cannot replace the missing Abyss Warriors, they can at least effectively enhance the combat power of our side.

“That’s not important. What’s important is that he awakens and becomes one of us.” Livru’s expression was not good.

This wasn't a plan with a sure win; she didn't know what would happen to the greatsword with its immense demonic energy after it awakened.

After all, Awakened Ones don't live in peace with each other, but she had no choice but to do so now. If this continued, the Awakened Ones would have no way out.

According to the intelligence gathered by Octavia, the greatswords used to escort the caravan to Rogudo Town are much stronger than before.

After destroying the organization, the surviving Claymores seem to have mastered a completely new way to become stronger.

Moreover, they also carried some equipment that the Greatsword had never had before, making the logistics capabilities of the town of Lokudo stronger than those of the organization.

Therefore, the Awakened side needs an Awakened who can withstand more damage.

Let that greatsword awaken. With such powerful demonic energy, it will surely become an existence that surpasses the Abyss after awakening.

She certainly couldn't control such a being, but once it awakened, it would become the greatsword's natural enemy, and that was enough.

If the other party awakens and becomes hostile towards her, she can simply run away. If she can't win, can't she at least run away?

If you're lucky, you might even get several greatswords around that greatsword to awaken at the same time.

After all, the strongest ones have already awakened. If the greatswords that are acting together don't want to be killed, then the only option is to awaken.

She wouldn't give those greatswords a chance to die in battle; as long as they were in a life-threatening situation, she could force them to awaken passively.

"If we can't get him on our side, we're doomed!"

“Then… let’s decide it this way.” After a moment of silence, the other Awakened Ones agreed to Livru’s suggestion.

They can disagree, but the consequences of disagreeing are more serious.

The Abyss Ones are not so easy to talk to. Even though it was clear that some Awakened Ones were tempted, they still made a rebuttal.

It's normal for them to be eliminated. Otherwise, if other Awakened Ones were to work so hard, wouldn't those Awakened Ones who raised objections just be trying to pick up the scraps later?
It would be better to kill him. As for Livru's plan failing, their fate won't be much better.

While Bai Mu was still on his way north, Galadriel stared in one direction and said, "There are multiple demonic auras present, indicating that they are Awakened Ones... and there are no fewer than five of them."

The actual number is likely much higher, but those awakened beings concealed their demonic aura, and due to the distance, she couldn't make a better judgment.

Even awakened beings releasing demonic energy might be doing so as a cover.

"Have those Awakened Ones gathered together?"

"Should we retreat?" Galadriel asked casually.

“Of course not,” Bai Mu said without hesitation. It would be better if the awakened ones gathered together.

This will save him a lot of time.

"Come on, let me introduce you to a teammate." Bai Mu placed the weapon case on the ground and summoned Esdeath's spirit fragment.

If it weren't for the need to leave Luoguduo Town, Bai Mu would have wanted to summon Beatrice, who was skilled in life alchemy and could also handle the physical condition of those greatswords.

However, if the problem can be resolved quickly here, we could let Beatrice play a role.

"Where is this again?" Esdeath, who had been summoned, immediately asked. She glanced at the people present, but did not mention the strange dream. She only gave the white curtain a subtle look.

This man seems to have a lot of women around him.

However, she did not mean to look down on these people; everyone present was very capable!
