Dream Travel

Chapter 378 Everyone Will Laugh
"You continue testing." Robert left these words in a hurry, and the nature of the alien world was easy to determine.

But the impact of this event was significant.

A relatively stable alien realm, even if it doesn't meet the needs of the native demons, would be much easier for them to deal with.

And then there's Bai Mu... If he also becomes alienated due to contact with the alien world, and things get out of control, it won't be good for them either.

Fortunately, he successfully contacted Bai Mu.

"What? Alienation? I don't feel it. It's probably because I'm a Dreamwalker." Bai Mu listened to the information shared by Robert and was quite curious about it.

It's amazing that people from other lands can assimilate outsiders. It seems that the expert who was almost dead before also mentioned this to him, though he didn't say much.

Moreover, when Bai Mu sent the other party back, he clearly saw that the other party and the car disappeared into the alien world.

So what's going on right now?

"Even so, we should still be careful; foreign lands are dangerous."

With a hint of curiosity, Bai Mu replied, "I'll stay far away."

“… Oh no, are you even listening?!” Robert felt a little uncomfortable.

"Will things from other lands come out?" Bai Mu asked, changing the subject.

Robert replied, "Generally speaking, no. The ecology in the alien world is different from that in reality. People in reality find it difficult to adapt to the dream erosion and environment in the alien world, and beings in the alien world also find it difficult to adapt to the environment in reality."

There are currently no exceptions to this situation, even if the injured person just now was tested on his own.

His arm was in one state within the alien realm, but after leaving the alien realm, it immediately underwent changes due to maladaptation to the environment.

"I understand." Bai Mu hung up the communication and moved to a more distant location. He took out a weapon case, and a ring of lightning spread out over a wide area.

Lightning has a large range but low power, but it's still enough to kill small animals nearby.

Then White Curtain patted the weapon case and summoned Luxembra.

The fragment of the primordial demon's spirit had been recuperating for a long time and finally began to react.

"You're back in reality? No, you defeated that demon lord!?"

Lexenberg sensed the change in his surroundings and looked surprised. He was prepared for Bai Mu to be killed by the demon lord, for the weapon box to become the demon lord's collection, and for himself to be enslaved.

It turns out that the White Curtain is still the one enslaving him now, which is really great!
“It was a lucky win.”

"I do not believe!"

"I'll make you believe."

Lexenberg reluctantly believed it.

"Answer my question first." The white curtain told Luxenbra what had happened here.

The fragment of the primordial demon's spirit glanced at the Hellish Realm and pursed its lips slightly: "I'm brain-dead, I can't let you leave here at will. Compared to this, you should care more about my true body, which is very, very close to us!"

The demonic fragment, incapable of making authoritative statements, readily admitted to being a moron and wasn't afraid of what the white screen could say about him.

He was truly helpless against this demonic labyrinth, as for the hellish realm?

What does that have to do with him? That's a foreign land existing in reality, like a skin disease, not his hometown.

Instead of worrying about these things, you should think about his true nature.

The main body was so close to them that the fragments of Luxembra's mind could clearly sense it, and even sense that the main body was angry.

"What's wrong with him?"

"I'm so angry, I wish I could come over and tear you apart, but I don't dare to, hahahaha!!" The fragment of Lexenbra's mind couldn't help but burst into laughter.

His true form was very angry, which made him also very afraid, but his true form dared not come here, which made him unable to resist wanting to laugh.

This is akin to an unarmed human facing a hungry tiger; even if they can't win, they can still raise their middle finger at the tiger before being bitten to death to prove their courage.

"Aaaaaah! I'm going to kill him!!" Luxembra roared, his demonic power overflowing with his explosive emotions.

The atmosphere was oppressive, but none of the demons present were weak, and no one was frightened.

Those who can be frightened are not worthy of being on the dining table; they can only be served as food.

"Hehehe, what happened that made you so angry?"

A well-dressed man asked with a smile. He was also a demon, but he was more skilled at transformation and was no different from a human in his normal state.

His refined and gentle demeanor did not prevent him from killing with his heart.

Lexenberg was panting heavily, staring intently in the direction of the white curtain, trying to recover the small amount of his soul that he had lost at this distance.

But even after failing, he could sense the state of that part of his soul; it hadn't weakened, but instead had become stronger.

This is a good thing for him. By reclaiming this part of his soul, he can not only fully recover, but his potential can even be increased. This is a good inspiration; perhaps he can use a similar method to enhance his demon soul.

But the failure to retrieve it fueled his anger even more, as the fragments of his soul that had been forcibly separated were resisting him!
That bastard actually wanted to start his own business, and when he tried to reclaim the soul fragments, he even received mockery from that damned fragment!
He wanted to capture that soul fragment, torture it severely, and then devour it, listening to its pleas for mercy throughout the process!

"We sensed your soul aura. Could it be that a human has stripped a part of your soul from you?" The refined-looking man looked surprised. "Do you want me to help you?"

"Need not!!"

Lexenberg coldly refused, saying that if he didn't let this guy and these demons help him, he might as well not have that part of his soul fragment.

Every single one of them is scum! But they are also all demons, which is actually a virtue.

After making himself the butt of the joke, Lexenberg actually hoped that the demons present weren't just scumbags.

Of course, if other demons suffer setbacks and he is present, he will also mock them mercilessly.

It was as if the demons here were mocking him cruelly.

What angered Lexenberg more than the rebellious fragments of his soul was his own investment.

The power of a soul fragment shouldn't be like this. Bai Mu obtained his soul fragment and used it to his advantage, but this isn't like raising a Pokémon.

Fighting more monsters will quickly make the captured sprites stronger, and demons can be stripped of their own kind of power.

However, aside from relatively special bloody battles, if you want to extract the power of similar beings and utilize it, you need to ensure that their powers complement each other.

The more powerful a demon is, the more it needs to care about such things.

The power his soul fragments currently possess is not normal. Although there are many demons in the Otherworld Hell, directly plundering demon power would not make him stronger so quickly.

At least the power of this soul fragment is normal, it has not been affected by other demonic powers, and the strength of the soul fragment has grown too much.

What caused this situation?
His investment!
The agent Engel that he arranged to be in the Otherworld Hell has probably already been killed and completely devoured by his own soul fragment!

Engel was transformed by him personally; he possessed Engel's power and could also sense the fragments of his own soul...

As a result, that good-for-nothing treated the effort he put in as a package and sent it over!?
This is something Luxembla didn't say; saying it would only make these demons laugh even more arrogantly.

"Let's talk about something else first." Seeing that Luxembla's skin was almost turning red, the refined man changed the subject.

Although they could continue to mock, what they were doing wasn't over yet; this hell was too important to them, and they couldn't afford to miss it no matter what.

They all had ulterior motives before, but now it's pointless to have them. All their previous investments have been wasted since the agent disappeared.

These losses must be compensated for in other ways; they cannot turn this hell into something they can use, otherwise they will only lose more.

Although Lexenberger isn't the strongest in their circle, the fact that he's at the table means he's not weak.

“Those humans are quite clever; they know how to clean up surveillance cameras, but our surveillance isn’t just limited to desert animals.”

At this point, the other demons laughed. Controlling animals is a common method, but it becomes ineffective if used too often.

Among the survivors are many members of the demon-hunting squad, who are experienced in dealing with demons.

Using this method is somewhat self-deceptive. If those people are truly foolish enough to ignore such surveillance, then they can continue to laugh.

If it wasn't overlooked, then it's just a normal situation.

Humanity in reality is far too underdeveloped in the field of magic; the demons present could all produce a handful of demonic spells capable of monitoring magic.

The removal of small animals was merely to reassure the survivors, as their actions were all under surveillance.

However, Bai Mu's method of using lightning to sweep away the small desert animals accidentally eliminated the surveillance within the area.

Surveillance magic like the Demon Eye isn't very powerful and is easily destroyed.

However, this vulnerability is compensated by excellent concealment.

The demons saw the tests the survivors were conducting at the camp.

This is fantastic news for the demons. A part of the otherworldly hell has not been completely pulled into reality, but has become another realm, and this other realm is very stable.

It's so stable that when ordinary people come into contact with the alien world, they won't suffer from severe dream corruption; instead, they'll be assimilated by the alien world.

Of course, this alien realm is still full of dream erosion, and it is still very dangerous and deadly for these dream visitors.

It can handle extremely stable alien realms, which is much easier than handling unstable ones.

Let Dream Erosion happen. They just need to try to place enough agents in, who can slowly infiltrate the hellish realms through their own demonic power, and acquire the authority of the hell lords...

By then, the real estate will belong to them, so whether they can go back or not will be less important.

If the alien realm is unstable and the dream erosion is particularly severe, then the step of arranging a proxy cannot be carried out.

Even though the plan failed, they still managed to find this exotic place; luck is on their side!
