In the gray-white mist, the massive, twisted beast roared, sending a deadly threat to the tiny figure in front of it.

The answer it received was a sword light that seemed to illuminate the entire ancient city.

With a flash of light, the beast collapsed and dissipated into the mist.

Pan Long shook his head and sighed.

"It's too weak! This dream world is completely different from what I imagined!"

He originally mimicked the dream world like in the game, even if he was a full-level boss in the outside world, after entering this world, he was an ordinary person, and he could only rely on weapons and simple spells to fight, so that even if he faced a few ordinary monsters, he had to be cautious and couldn't relax for a moment.

But the truth is completely different from what he thought.

When he entered the dream world, he did not have the body that cultivated the Nine Turns Xuangong in the outside world, and after being tempered by the heavens and the earth, he was almost invulnerable. But that doesn't mean he's become a weak ordinary person.

He's still going strong.

It only took a very short time for Pan Long to figure out the truth of the dream world - this world is, to put it bluntly, an extremely large dream world that ingests people's souls.

For ordinary people, the soul that is detached from the body is, of course, weak. In the face of those monsters condensed by resentment and curses, you need to be vigilant and careful, and you don't dare to relax at all.

But is he an ordinary man? Of course not!

He is a real person who has returned to his roots, and he is a strong man who has undergone more than one metamorphosis physically and mentally, and has long been beyond the world.

For people who have reached his realm, the power of the soul alone is enough to crush the ordinary so-called martial arts masters-in fact, there are already some powerful means that can be used by the soul alone in the Kyushu world, and there are also some masters who do not cultivate the physical body and specialize in cultivating the soul.

If those masters reach the realm of real people, their souls can travel by day, without fear of sunlight and rain, swords, bows and crossbows. Flying extinct, going to the sky and the earth, killing people thousands of miles away, chasing life invisibly.

This kind of realm is also called "Yang Shen Zhenren" in the Daomen.

A person like this, without a body, will of course still be weakened, but to what extent...... That's it.

Anyway, at least Pan Long found that he was just a soul, and in the face of the demons in the dream world, he had the advantage of crushing the degree.

That is no longer a question of "being strong", but of "crushing" in the literal sense.

If he felt the need, he could even turn into a giant bigger than the ancient city, lift his feet, and trample the ancient city and the demons inside into a flat wilderness.

The difference in strength between each other has reached this point, and the so-called "adventure" has become very boring, making him unable to lift his spirit.

Shaking his head, he walked over to a hanging lantern on the side of the road, and the figure suddenly disappeared, then reappeared in an empty hall.

Inside the hall, a doll as delicate as a beautiful girl stood up and walked towards him.

Pan Long ignored her, walked straight to a mirror next to him that rippled like water waves, and walked inside.

The next moment, he woke up from his dream.

Looking at the ceiling above his head, which was a little distorted by the dim lighting, Pan Long sighed.

"Dream World, but that's it!"

He could probably be sure that with his own strength, he might not get any benefits in the dream world.

The only thing that might help him might be the umbilical cord of the ancient gods.

Assemble several umbilical cords to obtain the person of the ancient gods. In the game, this is a necessary step to kill the Moon God.

And for him, the so-called "person of the ancient gods" may be able to further strengthen his soul, which can be regarded as helpful.

As for the rest, I'm afraid it really doesn't make much sense.

"Since the monsters in that world are so weak, maybe my plans can be changed?" he muttered to himself, lost in thought.

Originally, his plan was to lure the two bosses into killing each other like in the game, and then he supervised at any time, and personally intervened when necessary to ensure that both guys died, and completely solved the hidden danger for Hamlet Town.

But since he is so strong in the dream world that he has no friends, the plan can be adjusted.

The moon god who has been reincarnated successfully is immortal in the dream world, but in fact, there is a process from the time it abandons its original body to the time it is successfully reincarnated.

In the game, players who are just ordinary people have to go to great lengths just to kill its original body. After finally succeeding in killing, he almost raced against time to provoke the scumbag old earl and give it the blood of the ancient god that burst out of the original body of the moon god, in order to lure it into the dream world and fight the reincarnated moon god.

The whole process, which adds up to only an hour.

In such a short period of time, players really can't afford to waste even a minute.

But for Pan Long, the situation is very different.

He's so powerful, so why should he let the Moon God have a chance to reincarnate?

Wouldn't it be simpler to directly beat the Moon God to pieces and seal it up?

Although he is not good at using spells, he has such a powerful soul as a foundation, and it is not difficult to toss a seal or something like that.

One law is all laws, he has the heart method as the foundation, just study one or two seals, it is not troublesome.

Defeating the Moon God and sealing it away, the biggest trouble in the dream world is solved.

As for the scumbag old earl from the outside world...... As long as the final labyrinth "Flesh Chaos" where that guy is located is sealed, can he still be weird?

It took this guy a hundred years, and he only changed from a human to a monster, and he is still trapped in the labyrinth. Unless it's to attract your own blood descendants and seize the other party's body, don't think about it.

As long as Count Hamlet is not fooled and does not enter the "chaos of flesh and blood", he will always be limited in what he does.

In the story, the many crises encountered by the town are actually mainly caused by the housekeepers of Erwuzai. As long as he hacked that Erwuzi to death, or threw him into the labyrinth, and sealed up with his evil master, the biggest crisis in the town could be alleviated.

Of course, this can't solve the problem forever, but at the very least, it will definitely be okay to alleviate it for twenty or thirty years.

Count Hamlet is only in his twenties, and even if he changes his mind in the future, he will have to wait until he is forty or fifty years old.

When people reach middle age, their bodies gradually weaken and begin to feel the imminent approach of death, and their thoughts often change.

Pan Long felt that no matter what, before that, he would have time to enter this world again.

When the time comes, it will take another two months to have a good fight with these two so-called "final bosses" and completely eliminate them, and it will be too late.

He thought about it, and went back and forth through the whole plan several times, and finally decided - well, it seems that there is no problem.

Since there is no problem, then execute it like this!

The dream world doesn't need to be taken care of for the time being, and the focus of his entire plan is on the outside world.

The holy cross, which was originally enshrined in the room, was taken out from the imitation of the Sutra of Mountains and Seas and placed on the table, and a soft white light flowed from the cross, covering the entire room.

Pan Long lay down again and began to sleep.

Rest in the confines of the holy relics, and you will not be pulled into the dream.

He slept peacefully, and when he woke up the next day, he found Count Hamlet.

Count Hamlet's body smelled of alcohol that had not yet dissipated, and he explained that it was the result of accidentally drinking two more glasses last night when everyone was celebrating the successful establishment of the underground ruins advance stronghold.

Pan Long did not object to him drinking, as long as he didn't get nervous, drank the so-called "treasured blood brew" secretly made by the old earl, and contracted thirst, there would be no problem.

The bright red sake is said to taste so good that once you drink it, you will never forget it for the rest of your life. But it is actually the conspiracy of the old count, and if you drink alcohol, you will be infected by the blood of the vampires hidden within, and suffer from terrible diseases - or rather, curses.

People who suffer from thirst are usually no different from ordinary people, but once the curse occurs, they will develop a fanatical need for blood.

However, this curse cannot be alleviated by sucking blood, and if you don't drink it in time, you will soon fall into exhaustion, and eventually your whole person will turn to ashes - just like the legend has it that vampires turn to ashes when they die.

In the game, the story around the blood brew is an additional script. At that time, it caused a lot of trouble for players, so much so that even many hardcore players who pursued difficulty couldn't help but complain: "It's too hardcore, I can't bear it!"

Later, the game company lowered the difficulty of this script, and the players were able to attack the maze, complete this plot, and finally obtain the means to completely dissolve the curse.

Today, this labyrinth has not yet appeared. But Pan Long had already seen a bottle of "refined blood brew" in the earl's villa before.

At that time, he immediately reminded the Count not to drink this dangerous wine. The Count poured the wine directly into the burnt soot and buried it under a cross.

This must have made the old butler who tried to make trouble very unhappy, Pan Long did not see him at that time, but he was sure that the old immortal, who had also lived for more than a hundred years, must be hiding in the shadows, wondering how to plot against himself.

Or, the old immortal will soon go and unlock the sealed Crimson Courtyard and unleash the vampires created by the old earl to attack the town of Hamlet.

In the game, the vampires ignore the old butler's orders and just blindly sleep in the Scarlet Courtyard. However, vampire mosquitoes from the Crimson Courtyard, which also carry germs or curses, soon appear in the town and begin to spread thirst.

The strength of these mosquitoes is very weak, and there is nothing wrong with just a bite. But if you are bitten too much, there is a certain chance of contracting this terrible disease.

Once someone is infected with thirst, in order to help him relieve his symptoms, adventurers have to step into the Crimson Courtyard and search for blood brew in it.

Naturally, more and more people will be infected, and more and more blood will be needed. In the end, the only way is to find the original source of thirst, the vampire "Countess" who once wanted to confuse and control the old earl, but was subdued by him in turn, and used blood as raw material to create blood brewing and thirst.

Only by killing that vampire can the thirst disappear. But the scarlet courtyard is a labyrinth that is beyond imagination, and there are multiple folds of space in it. Finding the vampire hidden in the deepest part of the maze requires a lot of time and energy.

But what Pan Long lacks most now is time, he only has less than two months in total!

So, after some consideration, he finally made up his mind.

"Is the old butler there?" he asked.

Count Hamlet shook his head: "He is old, and he was too tired from the dinner yesterday, so I asked him to rest early." ”

Pan Long sneered: "He is indeed very old, but if you want to talk about rest...... He didn't need to rest. ”

The earl's face changed slightly, and he asked in a low voice, "Does he have a problem?"

"For more than 100 years, the town of Hamlet has had many heirs. Some of them are powerful and can fight more than a dozen people by themselves, and some are quite wealthy and have recruited hundreds of bodyguards...... But they're all dead, and they're all dead, and some of them don't see anyone alive or dead, why do you think that?"

The Earl frowned: "You mean to say that this is the old butler playing tricks?"

Pan Long nodded: "The first time I saw him, I felt that something was wrong with him. His aura was so strong that he didn't look like an old man in his last years at all. The last time I saw him, it made me even more suspicious...... I clearly felt in him a long time of accumulation, and it was not a question of fifty or sixty years, but a hundred or more decades. ”

He whispered, "The last time I encountered such an old immortal, it was in the ring of ancient trees in the forest. There was an old druid who had cultivated to the point of madness and had become one with the tree, and it was said that he had lived for almost two hundred years. The old aura on his body is very similar to that of the old butler. ”

There was a dangerous glint in the earl's eyes, he was a wise man, and he immediately understood what that meant.

An old man who has lived for a long, long time, and the heirs of all generations have died, but he is still alive, which is a problem in itself!

"He told me that his family had served the Earl of Hamlet for generations, and that he had only inherited this responsibility from his elders. ”

He was right, but he hid his age, as well as his ...... Who is he serving......"

Pan Long didn't go on, but Count Hamlet got it all right.

His face turned a little pale, and there was a hint of fear in his eyes. But soon, his expression became firm again, and his eyes no longer wavered.

"I see!" he said solemnly, "then, before I fight the ancestor who is hiding in the darkness and has no evil plans, let me get rid of the eyes and ears that he left in the town!"

They soon found the old butler, an old man who was supposed to be resting because of his old age and infirmity, and when they broke down the door, he was praying in front of a disgustingly twisted statue.

Seeing them kick open the door and enter, the old butler immediately realized that he had been exposed. He let out a terrifying cry and rushed towards the Count.

Pan Long pinched his neck with one hand, like lifting a chicken, and pulled him up.

"Leave this guy to me. Looking at the old butler who had grown fangs, his body was twisting and deforming, and he was about to turn into a monster, he shook his hand, and his true qi passed into the old butler's body like a flame, suppressing the momentum of the old butler's transformation, "I will take him to the druids and ask them to bury him under the tree as fertilizer." ”

The Count turned his head, drew his sword, and cut down the statue, nodding heavily.
