Dream Travel

Chapter 80 She Can Be a Princess
"Please don't do this, we will pay you in full!" The hotel owners were extremely panicked. They didn't want to charge more for letting the big sword kill the monsters, but they were also afraid that they would charge less.

"Then just accept the reward from this demon." Denise glanced at the headless corpse on the ground. Although it was disguised as a human, the demon would reveal its mutated body after death.

When they disguise themselves as humans, they suppress their demonic energy. After death, the demonic energy in their bodies is no longer suppressed, which will stimulate changes in their bodies.

The hotel owner breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Baimu, who yawned: "Is my new room ready?"

"Already prepared."

"Well...you guys just look after the barbecue monster. I'm going to go back and rest." Since all the professionals are here, there's no need for an amateur like him to stay here.

It’s good that what came back was the complete Denise, not just fragments of Denise.

In the new room, Denise casually placed the greatsword on the table. After she hurried back to the town, she sensed the residual evil spirit in the town, and saw that there seemed to be some celebration going on here, and the central square was too lively.

When we got closer, we saw that it was a barbecue monster we had never seen before. There was also a monster hiding in the crowd who was injured and could not disguise himself properly, and was waiting for the meal to start.

That was the last demon in the town, all the other demons were killed by Bai Mu.

"Now I really believe you can hold on to two numbers." Denise watched as she helped Baimu take off his shirt and looked at the several penetrating wounds on his body: "You need to recuperate for a while."

"I'm glad you came back. Did you find out the truth?"

"Um..." Denise took out a package placed at the door, "Do you know them?"

"It's almost burned, it stinks!" Bai Mu said with disgust: "If I look at it any longer, I'm afraid the wound will get infected and I'll die!"

"Well, I'll be out for a while." Denise carried the two heads away. With the help of the fire that was still burning in the central square, she got rid of the two heads. Then she left the town temporarily to take a shower before coming back.

"What do you want to do? You're taking a shower, what a ritual?"

Looking at Denise's still wet hair, Bai Mu couldn't help but look at the two little kids: "Let them go back to sleep first?"

"You really don't understand the greatsword?"

"It doesn't make any difference if I turn my back to you... No, I'm not strong enough." Bai Mu said quickly when he saw Denise taking off her shoulder armor. He now had more holes on his body than Denise. Thinking about the greatsword's physique, he decided to let him recuperate.

"You guys go to bed first." Denise glanced at the basin of blood-stained water on the table and said to River and Claire.

In half a month, the two malnourished girls had become rosy-cheeked. Bai Mu took good care of them.

"I want to help." River's voice became lower in front of Denise. She and Denise were not familiar with each other, so Claire was not so nervous, but she was more concerned about another thing.

Will I have to call Bai Mu dad from now on? She said, "I want to help too."

"Aren't you afraid?" Denise asked with an unchanged smile.

They both nodded, "There's nothing to be afraid of."

Originally, River was afraid. When she saw the injuries on Bai Mu's body half a month ago, she felt a phantom pain that she felt as if she were in the same situation. But in the past half month, she had skinned many small animals that she had eaten... What was there to be afraid of?

"I'm curious about what you've been through, but let's talk about this after you've rested enough."

Denise didn't let the two girls rest immediately. She asked them to stay and help Bai Mu treat his wounds and change the basin of clean water.

During the process, Denise saw the scars on Bai Mu's body half a month ago. Only shallow scars were left at the injured area. The new wounds had merged with these scars, and this time the injuries were no longer superficial.

"Your recovery ability is very good." Denise praised. Among ordinary people, Bai Mu's recovery ability is already top-notch, and his physical condition is even better.

"Well... it's okay." Bai Mu was a little absent-minded. He had not yet asked Denise about the specific situation. Since Denise did not come back with a fragment, it was probably the Great Sword Organization that was broken into pieces.

As long as the organization is destroyed, only some remnants of demons will be left. Apart from anything else, River's safe zone will be created, and the two countries outside the island of this dream world are not being considered for the time being.

It's time for him to go back. I wonder what level of enhancement he will get this time.

"Next is your legs."

"Ah, isn't this bad?" Looking at the two girls who couldn't resist their sleepiness and went to sleep, Bai Mu took off his pants.

"You really don't have any opinion on the greatsword?"

"Well... it's not a good idea for you to eat people after you awaken." Bai Mu said after thinking about it.

Then he picked up the cloth next to him that had been treated with hot water. His legs were the focus of the demon's attention, and once he took off his pants, the torn wounds on his legs could be seen.

“The Great Sword, after releasing the demonic energy to a certain degree, will awaken, and its mind and body will completely lean towards the demonic side, while the Great Sword exists in a semi-awakened state.

This state allows for easier release of demonic energy, but the spirit is still dominated by humans, and they won't contemplate cannibalism. Think of it as a state where the human spirit completely transcends the flesh and blood of demons." "Do you understand this?" Denise checked the laceration on Baimu's leg, making sure it was clean before bandaging it.

"I just mentioned one possibility. The greatsword is affected by the demon's flesh and blood, and will awaken to become a more dangerous awakener. This is because the demon's flesh and blood deeply affects the greatsword.

What if it's the other way around? What if the human spirit completely influences the demon's flesh and blood? But to what extent that could be achieved, I have no idea. This itself is a very dangerous attempt."

After the Great Sword awakens, its power will no longer increase and its strength will be fixed. However, in the semi-awakened state, its strength can still continue to grow and its strength is not inferior to that of the awakened one. It can be understood as a double growth cheat...

This plug-in is not easy to obtain, but this state is like the Super Saiyan. They are rare at the beginning, but after they really appear, they start to appear in large numbers.

This type of greatsword is also the result of the Greatsword Organization's experiments, right? It possesses greater power, but its mind remains normal, and its threshold for losing control is very high. Below that threshold, it can use its demonic energy relatively freely, without having to worry about it gradually losing control over a long battle.

The semi-awakened ones are already considered relatively 'perfect' biological weapons, but the conditions for achieving it are very high, otherwise there wouldn't be only awakened ones in this period.

After treating Bai Mu's leg injury, Denise asked, "Are you a spy too?"

"I'm her relative." Bai Mu looked at Rui Fu.

Denise was puzzled for a moment, so Bai Mu simply made up a story on the spot: "She could be a little princess who escaped after the fall of the kingdom. There might be survivors from the kingdom looking for her in the future."

"You are actually a princess?" Claire, who was sleeping in the bed, asked softly. They were sleepy, but because they were curious about what was going on between the adults, they didn't really fall asleep.

River was bewildered: "I don't know."

"Will you rebuild the country in the future?"

“…” River was even more confused.

"Heh--" Denise glanced at the two kids pretending to sleep and didn't continue the topic.

Regardless of whether Bai Mu was a spy or not, he really pointed out the way for her to find the truth, and she listened to what Bai Mu said about the semi-awakened people.

Because the greatsword has a 'combat lifespan', during the battle with demons, the final fate of the greatsword is to be killed by its own kind before the demonic energy gets out of control, or to escape and become an awakened one.

When facing the awakened ones, it is usually necessary for multiple greatswords to fight together, but it is not easy to deal with them. The greatswords who are fighting against them may be completely destroyed or awakened due to excessive use of demonic energy.

The organization no longer exists, and no new demons will appear in the future, but there are still a large number of demons and awakened ones on this island. The demons and awakened ones eat people, and even if the organization is gone, the remaining greatswords will fight them.

Either die in battle or become one of the awakened.

It is only a matter of time before the greatswords who did not die in battle become awakened. The semi-awakened ones that Baimu mentioned are very important. As long as the greatswords can avoid awakening, enemies like awakened ones will not continue to increase.

But how to do it... The idea provided by Bai Mu is feasible, and even makes sense. The flesh and blood of the demon will affect the spirit of the greatsword, so it is not impossible for the human spirit to affect the flesh and blood of the demon in turn.

What's more, greatswords have been doing this all the time. In daily life, greatswords have to maintain a certain mental state and control their own state, especially in battle.

What Bai Mu said was that in addition to using demonic energy, he no longer suppressed the demon's flesh and blood to maintain his own state, but completely subdued the demon's flesh and blood.

Just like training a dog.

Denise was not going to try it right away. Unlike other greatswords, she did not need to release her demonic energy most of the time when dealing with demons.

She still has a lot of time, she can first look for those greatsword warriors who are on the verge of awakening.

"Take a rest and we'll talk tomorrow." Denise sat on the floor next to the door and leaned against the wall to rest.

Normal sleeping patterns no longer suited her.

Bai Mu yawned. He didn't fight with the children for the bed and slept directly on the floor. It wasn't cold here anyway, so it would be fine for one night.

It's just that the medicine in this world is too ordinary. The places where Bai Mu was injured by the demon were still painful when he was sleeping, so when he woke up the next day, he was listless. The cloth strips on his body were soaked with blood, and the wounds had to be treated again.

The town has completely returned to normal. The white curtain can bring a sense of security to the residents, but this sense of security is never as strong as that brought by the greatsword.

Now that there is a greatsword here, the townspeople immediately feel safer.

The silver-eyed witch stayed with Baimu, and this combination reduced the residents' anxiety about the greatsword.

To the disappointment of some children in the town, Baimu opened classes as usual the next day.

They come to listen not because they want to, but because their families ask them to come...
