I sparked a mysterious resurgence in Marvel.

Chapter 458 Nightmare Sword

Because what favors the followers of evil gods is never the river of fate in this world, but the evil gods behind them.

obviously.

This large eyeball, born from the influence of the evil god's power, is still inextricably linked to the evil god, even if it is not a follower of the evil god.

Therefore... it is not protected by the fate of this world.

For beings that are not protected by fate, they are undoubtedly the most disgusting beings, as they are the "child of death" who bring misfortune and death upon contact.

That's why the big-eyed person in front of him had been so disgusted and wary of him before.

Thinking about this...

A thought struck Erin.

A servant of an evil god!

Previously, when I purified the aura of an evil god, I was able to obtain some fate points from the River of Fate. So what about killing an evil god's follower?

Before Erin could figure out how to kill the evil god's servant in front of him...

His prolonged silence seemed to be taken as a sign of disrespect and provocation by the large green eyeball opposite him, which made it extremely angry.

"snort!"

A cold snort filled with anger rang out, and the dream power that was enveloping Erin's spirit and trying to drag her into a deeper dream was as if drawn by an invisible force, quickly disappearing into that large green eyeball.

Then, within the pupil of that large green eye, it coalesced into a peculiar short sword shimmering with iridescent light.

"Since you ignore my warnings, then stay forever, become nourishment for the growth of my eternal dream, Child of Death!"

"Nightmare Sword, slash!"

The Nightmare Sword, a byproduct of the Eye of Dreams, is a sword with the ability to sever all things, both tangible and intangible.

Even abstract concepts like curses and blessings can be directly severed!

If not, then this Nightmare Sword can only operate within dreams, and its power increases the deeper one falls into a dream.

With just this Nightmare Sword, this newly born Dream Eye can enter the dreams of everyone on this ship and then kill them all within those dreams.

As the Eye of Dreams grows stronger, the power of this Nightmare Sword will also increase until... it pierces through dreams and reality, cutting from dreams into reality.

of course.

This newly born Dream Eye can no longer bring the Nightmare Sword into reality; it even has to pay a hefty price to use it once.

otherwise.

When Erin stepped into its "territory", it didn't just give a warning, but instead used the Nightmare Sword to drag Erin into the dream and kill him.

"fire!"

As the Eye of Dream summoned the Nightmare Sword, Erin's sense of danger alerted her.

Almost subconsciously.

Erin's mental energy surged wildly, and through friction, it ignited seven or eight mental flames within a fifty-meter radius of him in the dream space.

[Flame Leap]

Immediately.

The moment the Nightmare Sword in the Eye of Dreams fully materialized and slashed towards him, Erin didn't hesitate and immediately entered [Flame Leap], instantly teleporting.

next moment.

Ailin, who had just appeared from a burst of flames, saw that his original location was suddenly split in two, and even the void was divided in two by that small sword with a mottled color!

This is the power of "rules"!

That sword was actually a weapon governed by rules.

Damn it, how could a newly born follower of an evil god possess something like this?

and many more!

Looking at the void that had been split in two where he had been, Erin suddenly realized that the green eyeball that had drawn its sword seemed to have targeted more than just him.

There's also the "channel" he stabbed out earlier, which connects dreams and reality.

Looking at the void passage that had been cut in two, a flash of understanding appeared in Erin's eyes.

Is this an attempt to cut off my escape route and completely trap me in this dreamlike space?

But you think you can keep me here based on this?

Haha, this guy really underestimates me!

His pupils held a sword-like quality, and his large, solemn eyes seemed to possess a kind of penetrating ability.

Almost at the same moment Erin emerged from another flame, it followed a mysterious trajectory and directly saw Erin, who had once again used [Flame Leap] to teleport into another flame.

"call out!"

next second!

The sword pierced the air, and that colorful nightmare sword shot toward the fire eye where Erin was located with incredible speed.

An invisible blade seemed to emerge on that colorful little sword.

Wherever they went.

A distinct crack appeared on the earth, in the sky, and even in the void!

Even this dreamscape seemed to have been pierced with a wound.

Amidst the flames, Erin's figure flickered again, emerging from another burst of fire. He then formed his right hand into a gun shape and pointed it several times at the large green eyeball.

"Bang bang bang!"

One by one, air bullets filled with spiritual energy rippled through the dream space before shooting towards the large green eyeball.

After advancing to the [Master of Puppets] level, the air bullets that were previously of ordinary power are now as powerful as heavy sniper rifles, and due to the power of their spirituality, they can even harm special creatures such as the undead and vengeful spirits to a certain extent.

It's perfect for dealing with special creatures like the Eye of the Dream.

"Ding ding ding!"

But just as those air bullets were about to hit the big green eyeball, a diamond-shaped, eerie green shield suddenly appeared beside the big green eyeball, blocking the three air bullets for it.

Although the three air bullets created ripples when they struck the diamond-shaped, dark green shield, they failed to breach it.

Just in time.

Taking advantage of the instant Erin raised his hand to attack, Dream Eye had a thought, and his mental power guided the Nightmare Sword to quickly break through the air and sweep across!

Stab it!

The sword blade pierced the air, cutting through the flames and splitting them in two!

Not only that, even Erin, who was in the flames, was directly cut in two by this nightmare sword.

Looking at Erin, who had been cleaved in two by the Nightmare Sword, a sinister, almost human-like smile appeared in his large green eye.

"call out!"

However, the next second...

The Arlin that was split in two by the Nightmare Sword lost its color and turned into a thin paper figure, which was then swallowed by the flame that was also split in two and burned into a pile of ashes.

"What's going on...?"

Having never seen such a bizarre ability as the [Substitute Paper Doll] before, the Eye of Dreams was stunned into silence upon witnessing this scene.

Followed by.

A strong sense of unease suddenly arose in its heart.

"The turtle shell is good; it can stop my air bullets. But can it stop my dragon slayer?"

next moment.

A flintlock pistol, its muzzle resembling a roaring dragon, suddenly emerged from the void behind the Eye of Dreams, then pressed against the diamond-shaped, eerie green shield and mercilessly pulled the trigger.

"Buzz!"

As soon as Erin pulled the trigger, a terrifying aura, almost tangible and suffocating, raged forth from the Dragon Hunter in Erin's hand.

Immediately afterwards, a black beam of death light shot out from the gun muzzle, which resembled a dragon's mouth.

However, just as the black death light shot out from the muzzle of the [Dragon Hunter] gun, a ferocious look suddenly appeared in the green eye that had seemed slightly stunned just moments before.

"Trying to ambush me? You fool..."

Although it had never seen such a strange and magical ability as the [Substitute Paper Doll], it regained its composure after a moment of unease.

Using that unease, they disguised their true intentions.

As Erin approached it, intending to use [Dragon Slayer] to shatter the turtle shell covering it, wasn't the Eye of the Dream also waiting for Erin to reveal itself?

"call out!"

The Nightmare Sword, shimmering with iridescent colors, cleaved through the void the instant the black deathly light shot from the muzzle of the Dragon Slayer's spear, slashing towards Erin.

Compared to previous attacks.

The attack meticulously prepared by the Eye of Dream is faster, stronger, and more dangerous.

A sword fell.

As if tearing through space, it severed the "distance" between "it" and Erin, appearing directly in front of Erin.

The Nightmare Sword sweeps across.

Under that law that cuts through everything, nothing seemed able to stop the sharpness of this sword, which pierced into Erin's chest in his astonished gaze.

"Snap!"

Under the incredulous gaze of the Eye of Dreams, Erin, struck once more by the Nightmare Sword, transformed into a light, floating paper doll. At the same time, the paper doll's astonished gaze turned into a provocative, mocking smile.

But before the Eye of Dreams could unleash its fury, a terrifying dragon roar shattered the diamond-shaped, eerie green shield surrounding it.

In an instant, the eerie green shield, cracked like porcelain, shattered before the horrified eyes of the Eye of Dreams.

The black death ray that shattered the eerie green shield, though having consumed most of its power, still struck the large green eyeball with undiminished speed.

"puff!"

Although shattering the eerie green shield consumed most of the black death ray's energy, its remaining energy was still enough to easily kill an elephant.

But facing this shot.

On the eyeball of the Dream Eye, only a fist-width hole was melted out, running through the eyeball.

but.

Even so, those large, dark green eyes were filled with pain.

As if he had been severely injured, his entire body began to convulse.

Even the Nightmare Sword, which could cut through anything, began to sway in the void and was on the verge of collapse.

good chance.

Having already dodged the attack from the Eye of Dream using the [Paper Doll Substitute], and then using the guidance of mental power and the concealment of [Illusion], he managed to distance himself from the Eye of Dream, Erin.

Taking advantage of the great opportunity presented by the severe damage inflicted on [Dream Eye].

It directly condensed another spiritual spear, piercing through the passage connecting dreams and reality that had been severed by the Nightmare Sword but had not completely dissipated.

At the moment the passage opened up.

A wisp of will then descended into Erin's physical body outside the dream.

As that spiritual will descended, Erin, whose physical body had fallen into stillness, suddenly narrowed his eyes. Then, using his own mental will as a guide, and through the brilliant fuel of Earth's civilization behind him, he ignited a spark of civilization within the Eternal Lighthouse.

Then, through the channel that Erin had pierced with his mental power, he locked onto the shallow layer of dream in which Erin and the Eye of Dream were engaged in fierce combat.

"call!"

The moment it left the projection of the Eternal Tower in Erin's hand, the wisp of civilization, which resembled a small flame, seemed to expand a thousandfold.

It transformed into a fiercely burning flame of civilization.

Sensing that the powerful attack outside had been prepared, Erin's mind stirred, and a vast spiritual force surged forth, constructing an invisible mental prison within his dream space.

It firmly "locked" that big green eyeball into the mental prison in front of it.

Goodbye, big eyes.

Having almost instantly exhausted his mental energy, Erin, with a thought, sent his will back into his body along with the last wisp of mental energy.

And at the moment Erin's consciousness returned.

That blazing flame of civilization, guided by the light of civilization and along the spiritual channel that connects reality and dreams, fell into the shallow dream world born from Erin.

······

In the shallow realm of dreams.

The Eye of Dreams was severely injured by that black death ray.

Threatened by the sudden burst of civilizational fire overhead, their scattered spirits and wills finally coalesced once more.

Upon seeing the flame of civilization that was actually burning, Dream Eye instinctively took a few steps back.

Because it instinctively sensed the terror of the flames of civilization.

The fire that Erin summoned was the flame of civilization ignited by the projection of the Eternal Lighthouse, but the flame of civilization is just that—the flame of civilization—a flame of civilization that can harm evil gods.

How could it possibly be comparable to a Dream Eye that has only been born for a short time?

"You damn bastard, you just wait!"

He glared fiercely at the phantom that Erin had created using his last bit of spiritual power, combined with the [Substitute Paper Doll], and left behind.

As if wanting to firmly imprint the image of this mortal enemy in its heart, the Eye of Dreams caused the surrounding void to ripple faintly, and invisible doors to open.

Then a dream gate appeared, attempting to swallow the Eye of Dreams.

The Dream Eye sensed the terrifying power of the flames of civilization, but had no intention of fighting them head-on.

Although it acts arrogantly and wildly most of the time, it is still young and hasn't had enough of life yet.

Driven by a thirst for life, the Eye of Dreams chose to retreat without hesitation.

But just as that dream gate was about to swallow the dream eye...

The invisible mental prison that Erin had constructed with his mental power suddenly appeared, transforming into invisible chains that blocked the door to the dream and the eye of the dream.

Block the connection between them.
