Transcendent Dawn

As an [Odd Technician] and a seasoned explorer of people’s hearts, Su Lu has expert-level understanding of the Mental Secret Realm.

Generally speaking, the defense of a Mental Secret Realm is about one level higher than its actual level.

That is to say, a common person’s mental defense is close to that of a first-level Occupational Person, and the defense of the first-level Occupational Person can only be breached or resisted by a second-level power.

In this regard, the beasts in Dora’s Mental Secret Realm would not exceed a first-level ranking.

However, at this moment, the Flesh Polluter standing before Su Lu, its body full of a dirty, mystical aura, was seemingly composed of a lot of severed limbs and pieces. It’s unknown where the flesh it consumed came from.

A malicious aura, close to a third-level rank, was released from the beast.

“So there are issues… Has the heart been contaminated because of long term blood loss?”

With burning eyes, Su Lu stared at the Flesh Polluter, and a hoarse voice emerged: “Thou… are guilty!”

He drew his scimitar and charged on horseback.

Gurgling sounds!

The Flesh Polluter’s vertical pupils fixed on Su Lu while its many tentacles writhed and charged at an extremely fast speed, tightly wrapping around the Dark Knight.

Crack!

Next moment, a crescent-shaped blade light emerged, breaking the tentacles.

The blade light seemed like a meat grinder, causing all the tentacles to be broken and flung in all directions.

Through the revolting rain of blood and flesh, Su Lu continued his charge and stood before the Flesh Polluter.

“Scream!!!”

From the Flesh Polluter’s vertical pupils, a sharp and terrifying scream rang out, and a gray-white light shot out from the eyes to hit directly at Su Lu’s chest.

A layer of gray-white stone chips came into view, seeming as if they wanted to spread from his chest in all directions.

“Petrifying beam?”

Su Lu laughed lightly, his speed didn’t change, he passed right through the Flesh Polluter’s center.

Immediately, he pulled off a piece with his hand.

Crack!

A piece of gray-white stone chip was ripped off and ground into powder.

“Ignoring the high magic resistance of the Black Knight, even a regular Spiritual Body would greatly weaken the effect of such petrifying curse magic… As expected of an irrational and crazed beast.”

Behind him, the Flesh Polluter stood still.

Next moment… Boom!

A black flame burned fiercely across the Flesh Polluter, spreading to all the tentacles in a few seconds.

In the end, this disgusting beast turned into ashes.

Su Lu did not stop, he rode his Nightmare horse, stamping through the ancient castle, and entering the central hall.

There was no ordinary mental guard in the old castle, not even one trace of a living person, just like everything had disappeared.

“Huh?”

Behind the hall, Su Lu reached a boudoir, where on the soft velvet bed, he discovered a black crack.

“Actually… even subconsciousness is missing. In a vegetative state, that would be putting it lightly.”

Su Lu pursed his lips and plunged deep into the black crack.

Crack.

It felt as if his whole body passed through an electric current, feeling a bit numbing and tingling.

When Su Lu regained his senses, he found himself in another world.

A bizarre world filled with all sorts of incredible things!

“Dream Spirit World! The deep ends of Dora’s Mental Secret Realm… There’s actually a crack leading here! Is this also an effect of God’s Blood?”

Su Lu glanced around and found himself in some kind of wooden hut.

The construction of the hut was peculiar, seemingly built from twisty roots of old trees, full of a twisted artistic style.

If one looks long at it, it would definitely cause dizziness, even inducing nausea.

“Dora’s dream…connected here… Could this be the core of the Dream of the Ancient God? The beginning and the end of everything?”

While being vigilant, Su Lu walked out of the wooden door.

What he saw was a dark forest.

Many branches forked out, forming strange arms pointing towards the sky in all manner of attitudes.

Within the woods, shadows upon shadows, as though a few dark figures were moving.

Su Lu released his inspiration and soon found a source of sound.

After pondering for a moment, he spurred his horse and gave chase.

Just a few steps later, he suddenly turned around, only to see that the wooden house had disappeared without a trace.

“Okay… there’s no going back now.”

Su Lu shook his head and rushed into the Black Forest.

“Whimper… big sister, I’m so scared!”

Somewhere in the woods.

The petite reporter Dora hid under a tree, looking at her older sister Angie standing in front of her.

This violent woman was having multiple injuries on her body, holding an axe in her hand, and glaring at the enemy in front of her fiercely.

—It was a peculiar “Z” shaped symbol. What was initially an abstract symbol seemed to transition from two dimensions to three, attaining a separate entity with four tiny limbs.

And in its hand, it held a strangely-shaped scythe, preparing to strike.

Clang!

The scythe clashed with the axe once again, sending the violent woman flying backward.

“Big sis!”

Seeing this, Dora rushed over: “Are you alright?”

“Are you an idiot? Don’t you know to run away?”

Angie, seeing Dora approach, cursed angrily: “Do you want my death to be absolutely worthless?”

“But… But… ”

Dora was choking back tears, unable to speak.

The next moment, the Z-shaped pursuer had already made it in front of them, raising his butcher knife high.

“Ah!”

Dora let out a scream, hugging her sister.

Thud!

The expected pain did not come. She looked up and found a black knight appearing out of nowhere, his skeletal horse’s front leg was fiercely stomping on the head of the Z-shaped pursuer, driving it into the ground.

“Another… another monster? Whimper… big sister… this place is so scary… Dora wants to go home…”

Dora cried even louder.

“Silence!”

Having seen this scene, as well as Angie’s hostile expression, Su Lu could not help but roar: “Can’t you even tell friend from foe? It’s me who saved you!”

“Ah!”

The two sisters exclaimed in unison: “Are you… human or beast?”

“I’m from Nia City, I even did a transaction with Doctor Angie before!”

Su Lu chose to reveal his identity but kept his actual appearance hidden.

“It’s you!”

Angie looked surprised.

“How did you end up here?”

Su Lu quickly asked.

“I don’t know… since that day… I can’t remember how long it’s been, seemed like half a month ago, something strange happened in Nia City. I planned to take Dora and leave, but unexpectedly, we ended up here… ” Angie recalled vaguely.

‘The pace of time… is it already inconsistent?’

Su Lu looked serious and mentally noted it down.

“Thankfully… I found my sister here.” Angie stroked Dora’s hair with a relieved expression.

“So… how long have you been here?” Su Lu stared at Dora.

“I… don’t know… I can’t remember…”

Dora, completely oblivious that the black knight was Su Lu, answered nervously: “I only know that it’s been a very, very long time… I could often hear my sister’s voice beside my ear… but before, there were not so many beasts here, not until those people arrived!”
