Dream Travel

Chapter 331 You Still Have a Backer?
Octavia knew that she was not a 'good person' to humans.

But that doesn't stop her from wanting Bai Mu to live a good life. She's not a good person to humans, but Bai Mu is.

Isn't what Bai Mu is doing now a good thing? Dealing with demons and trying to solve the troubles they bring to reality.

People who can do this kind of thing can't be all that bad.

She didn't know what kind of person the next user of the weapon case would be, but the current user of the weapon case was Bai Mu.

She already knew him to some extent; he wasn't an unacceptable 'bad person'.

If the White Curtain is evil enough, an awakened being like her, who is controlled, will most likely not have a good life.

Unlike now, she has less free time, but at least Bai Mu won't do anything that would be detrimental to her.

Even when dealing with demons, Bai Mu simply made her retreat behind him.

Although the original purpose of the white curtain was to prevent her from stealing monsters, this can also be considered a form of 'protection', right?
"There's a demon. Let's change direction first."

The white curtain discovered the demon, bringing Octavia back to her senses.

"Aren't you in a hurry?" Octavia immediately changed direction and rushed towards the demons that the white curtain had spotted.

Bai Mu pulled the Dream Eater Greatsword from the weapon box hanging on the horse's back, and raging black flames erupted from the weapon.

By the time the demons discovered the white curtain, Octavia had already used her speed to rush to their side, carrying the white curtain with her.

Her arms spread out like ribbons, binding the legs of the demons, making them unable to move. The demons were then beheaded by Bai Mu's sword.

After killing the demon, Bai Mu glanced at Octavia's retracted arm, noting that the change in her arm was similar to that of Livru.

However, Livru's awakened form cannot be used as a mount.

"Is it too hot?"

“I don’t care.” Octavia cut off the charred ribbon as she rehabilitated her arm.

"Okay, let's keep going." Bai Mu picked out the hell metal and continued on his way to his destination, dealing with any demons he encountered along the way.

Upon arriving at the location marked on the map, White Curtain slowed down and, using the Dream-Eater Imperial Arm, observed a demon camp.

No, this can't be called a demon camp, but rather an area where a lot of demons gather.

The reason demons gather here is that there seems to be a place where hell metal can be mined.

After observing for a while, Bai Mu decided to go straight to the point.

“You didn’t have a plan at all, did you?” Octavia couldn’t hold back any longer.

She was clearly looking at the white screen and thinking seriously, but this is what she came up with?
"This is hell. Across from us is a bunch of demons who love to hack and slash. Just go up and chop them down. There are plenty of them, so you can take this opportunity to practice your skills. Let's see who gets killed by the demons..."

Bai Mu then summoned the other Awakened Ones and said to Octavia, "Explain the situation to them, and we'll begin in five minutes."

The 'Souls' in the weapon case need to learn about the outside world and get more practical experience so that they won't need so much explanation when they need to fight again in the future.

"There really are demons?" An awakened being looked at the demons moving in the distance with a surprised expression.

Octavia explained the situation very clearly. Although there were still many things they didn't understand, what they needed to do right now was to fight these demons.

"..."

"Who exactly are you?" Livlu stared at the demon in the distance. The previous Luxenbra could be described as some kind of special creature.

But now that she's directly in Hell and has seen even more demons, no matter how much she didn't believe Bai Mu's words, she has to believe them now.

“Normal humans, if you win this battle, I’ll give you a day off. You can choose when to use it.”

After Bai Mu finished speaking, he immediately gave the order. He wasn't going to waste time here; maintaining so many Awakened Ones was taking a toll on him.

The reason for summoning so many awakened beings is that the White Curtain does not want to let any of the demons here go.

"Only one day?!" Duff, standing next to Livru, wanted to vent his dissatisfaction.

Livlu tapped him on the stomach to stop him from saying anything more. Their lives were in Bai Mu's hands, and talking nonsense could lead to trouble.

"The condition for winning is that none of the demons here can be let go."

"Alright, let's get started." Luciela said impatiently, as she and her sister were the most formidable fighters present when they were combined.

If she awakens as an Abyss Walker, then Lafayette's awakening won't be too bad either.

With double the demonic energy after merging, there's no one here who can fight against them!

"Let's go." Bai Mu mounted his horse and charged towards the demon camp.

"What is that thing? What is a human carrying?"

A demon smashing rocks looked puzzled. The white-clad figure rushing towards them was a human, but he was followed by a large group of strange-looking monsters.

Even the horse that Bai Mu was riding looked abnormal, but the demon was somewhat interested in the horse and planned to take it as a collectible.

Satisfied, the demon put away the hell metal he had smashed out and pulled out the weapon stuck in the ground next to him.

"Humans have delivered themselves to our doorstep, be careful!" Although Bai Mu is a human, he shouldn't be underestimated for bringing so many monsters here.

Putting everything else aside, those monsters look pretty intimidating, and their shapes are bizarre. I'll see if I can harvest their souls when I get the chance.

The extraterrestrial humans who have recently appeared in Hell all have souls with some degree of problems, and it is difficult to preserve their souls properly after they are killed.

I don't know if these monsters can be preserved. They don't look like human monsters at all. Rare species are very popular in Hell.

"Humans are even coming to our doorstep?" The other demons were also alarmed.

They joined the impending battle with howls, and very few wanted to run away.

Just as the battle was about to begin, the Awakened Ones following behind the White Curtain suddenly sensed something amiss; their demonic energy was inexplicably amplified.

The new demonic energy greatly enhanced their power, and their forms also underwent some changes.

Once a greatsword is awakened, the intensity of its demonic energy becomes fixed, but now their demonic energy has broken through the fixed upper limit.

The breakthrough in demonic energy led to the 'evolution' of their awakened forms.

"What the hell!?" The changes in those awakened beings slightly startled the charging demons.

These monsters don't look like people, nor do they have any magical powers, but they are still quite intimidating in appearance.

Putting everything else aside, the change in his body alone amazed these demons.

As for the white-clad figure leading the charge, he looked quite ordinary.

Since it lacks magic, it seems rather ordinary overall.

But after demonic flames ignited on the weapons of the White Curtain, the leading demon changed his tune.

"Damn it, this isn't just any ordinary outsider!"

He swung his weapon to block the attack from the white curtain. As the demon overseer of this camp, his strength was even more outstanding among the demons.

However, even when faced with Bai Mu's charging attack, he was still slashed away.

The demon overseer, who had been knocked away, was bound by several ribbons and dragged toward the white curtain.

The bound demon overseer was terrified and quickly swung his weapon to cut the ribbons.

You'll know how strong an enemy is once you start fighting. Although Bai Mu has no magic or the battle aura of human warriors, his power is even stronger than that of a demon!

If he were dragged back, he would definitely be killed on the spot by Bai Mu.

Looking elsewhere, the group of monsters that Bai Mu brought were already fighting with other demons.

The monsters were all quite large, and their physical variations allowed them to coordinate with each other on the battlefield.

The monster cat with two tails is even more ferocious, its tails, which are covered in mouths, wrap around a demon and bite it.

The demon's attacks are also effective against these awakened beings, but their recovery abilities are generally quite strong.

Unless it's a fatal attack, nothing can cause any real damage to these monsters.

Injuries like severing limbs seemed to have no effect on the awakened beings; the damage caused by the demon's flames was negated by their abnormal regenerative abilities.

"What exactly is this body?" Duff blocked an attack from a demon, opened his mouth and spat out several pillars that shattered the demon's sternum.

He had already realized the abnormality in his body. During battle, his demonic energy was almost completely depleted. Although he would feel great pain after being injured, his recovery was unusually rapid.

Rather than the awakened one's self-recovery, it is more like a 'restoration'. Of course, during the restoration process, he can also consume demonic energy to speed up the recovery.

However, it seemed unnecessary. Moreover, the sudden increase in demonic energy made his outer shell even thicker.

Although some of the demons' attacks were very painful, and the burning sensation from the flames attached to the weapons was intense, some of those attacks were unable to penetrate his defenses.

Occasionally, when encountering a demon that can break through his defenses or even severely injure him, the above situation will occur.

After suffering serious injury, at most one's mental state deteriorates, but nothing else seems to happen.

He couldn't help but look at Livru. Livru's awakened form hadn't changed much, but the number of stripes had increased, greatly expanding her attack range.

Even the weakest demons could not escape her attacks.

While they could handle the stronger demons, there were many awakened beings present.

In a chaotic battle, demons would roam freely. Faced with this situation, Duff simply gave up on thinking and decided to just deal with these demons...

"You'll regret this!" The demon overseer, feeling the pressure as he watched countless demons die, glared fiercely at the white curtain.

He didn't want to die here. Demons don't truly die in hell, but if they are killed, they have to start all over again.

"What? You have a powerful backer? Tell me who this person is." After Bai Mu severed the opponent's weapon, his greatsword, burning with black flames, suppressed the demon overseer.

The demon overseer could sense that the soul of another demon within the weapon was grinning at him.

The demon overseer cursed inwardly, "Which demon is so shameless as to offer his soul to a human? He's gone against the heavens!"
