The Nightmare Barrier, as the name suggests, is a barrier made up of collective nightmares.

Any creature that tries to pass through it will encounter a passive attack from Nightmares - collective nightmares that target the mental weaknesses of the person who passes through them, and design nightmares to break down the opponent's psychological defenses.

And once you die in a dream, you will also be hurt in reality, and that's how Nora was tricked.

After listening to the Banshee King's explanation, everyone hurriedly took a few steps backwards in the direction where Nora was originally located to make sure that they would not accidentally touch this barrier.

Then he turned his puzzled gaze to Nola.

"Ahem." Nora hesitated and said, "I dreamed that I became the Pope of the Holy See. ”

"Then Asker came with someone to kill me, saying that I had betrayed the camp of the Transcendents."

"I couldn't beat him, he killed him."

"Oh......" the girls all agreed. Since it was Asker who appeared in Nola's dream, it was normal for him to be killed if he couldn't defeat him - think about how much the leader's obscenity had left in everyone's hearts in the past year.

Even people like Sidlifa and Mia, who are often trained by the regimental commander, ask themselves if Asker wants to kill them with a sword one day, even if it is in a dream, they probably have weak legs in the first place.

It's impossible to resist, and you can't beat it! Over the course of the year, the number of times you have lost to him is about to break a thousand, right? I haven't won a single time!

But training is training, this time the regiment commander really wants to kill Nola, even if it's in a dream, it's too much!

Thinking of this, everyone looked at Asker's eyes, and they showed contempt and disdain.

Asker: ???

"Asker, you've gone too far this time." Sheila cleared her throat and said.

"What did I do?" Asker was inexplicable.

"You killed Sister Nora in her dream." Mia said.

"Wait, that's not me." Aske laughed and tried to justify, "That's a nightmare! What does it have to do with me, if you want to blame it, you should blame the Nightmare Barrier! ”

"If it weren't for the fact that you always bully her, would Nora be afraid that you would be like this? Do you even dream of you in nightmares? Eleanor said calmly and critically.

I...... Asker was speechless.

"Heh, nightmares aren't set in stone. The more holes there are in the mind, the more likely it is to fall in a nightmare. The Banshee King coldly concluded, "It has obviously caused a hole in the soul of others, but at this time, she still shirks her responsibility with eloquence. Heh, scumbag. ”

Asker: ..................

He spread his hands helplessly, and put on a posture of lying flat and letting you hammer. After all, arguing with a woman is not a cost-effective thing in itself, losing the quarrel is embarrassing, and winning the quarrel...... Not only shame, but also shame.

"Well, we have to find a way to 'get through the nightmare barrier unharmed.'" Seeing that everyone stopped talking, Aske immediately skillfully changed the subject.

"I'll do it." Eleanor stepped forward, "My law of will is immune to psychic ability attacks, which should also include dreams. ”

"Then Eleanor will try it." "If she can get through the barrier unharmed, we'll go to Hearthfire Island and let her lead us through." ”

"Hmm." Eleanor nodded in response.

She took a deep breath and walked forward heroically.

………………

Suddenly, she came to her senses and found herself sitting on the Iron Throne.

It's dangerous! I almost sank into a dream!

Thankfully, my will helped me stay awake and made me realize that I was dreaming.

Eleanor thought to herself, and began to digest the memories in her head.

She didn't know when she was pulled into the dream. In short, at this point in time in the dream, she had left the Blue Sword mercenary group and returned to the Weissbach family.

The House of Saxony had previously withdrawn from the race for the throne due to the defeat of the Empire, giving way to her father, the Duke of Bavaria.

A few years later, her father gave her the position, on the grounds that she had become a demigod and could better shoulder the responsibility of leading the empire forward.

After sitting on the Iron Throne, as the first female monarch of the empire, she worked hard and led well, not only easing the relationship between the royal family and the major families, feudal monarchs, vassals and subjects, so that the empire would not suffer from war for many years, but also repaired the relationship with the Holy See and maintained technical support from the south.

Now the empire is thriving, the people are living and working in peace and contentment, both at home and abroad are in a stable state, and everything is developing in the best direction.

The only thing that annoyed her was the mercenary groups and swordsmen who were fighting wars in the country everywhere.

They were often secretly hired by nobles to go to nearby feudal states to start wars. For the nobility, the step of conscripting the militia was omitted, and the emperor, who had always been anti-war, would not find out who was starting the war.

Of course, for Eleanor on the Iron Throne today, these mercenary groups are simply a cancer of the empire. Not only was he always involved in conflicts and conspiracies between nobles, destroying the peaceful relations between feudal states, but he also killed people everywhere and burned houses, which was a heinous crime.

As a result, she issued the most severe "Iron Ban" in history, prohibiting any mercenary group from accepting employment within the empire without permission, and even sent a large number of blade warriors to eliminate those unruly and illegal mercenary groups.

Such a measure naturally aroused the general resentment and hostility of the mercenaries. The Iron Cross Mercenary Regiment, as the largest veteran mercenary group in the northern part of the Empire, has recently had frequent fierce friction with the Empire's policy control.

Taking advantage of a chance opportunity, they launched an internal response in the Grand Palace of Aachen, and together with other large mercenary groups, they set off an armed coup against the emperor.

"Is this my nightmare?" Eleanor on the Iron Throne shook her head, unimpressed.

She doesn't like war, but she doesn't fear it. In dreams, she can also exert extraordinary abilities, and with the Unyielding Holy Sword, it is almost impossible for her to be assassinated by any mercenary.

Not to mention that she still has the rank of a demigod at this time.

"Your Majesty!" Several Blade Warriors quickly came in to report, "The rebels have invaded the atrium!" ”

"I will personally go to quell the rebellion." Eleanor said calmly, stood up from the Iron Throne, and lifted the sword and spear next to her.

A few minutes later, corpses littered the atrium of the palace.

Eleanor slew the last foe, then slung her sword to the ground and looked around under the Blade Warrior's guard.

Because she knew that she was in a dream, she was in a relaxed mood, and asked left and right:

"Are there any other enemies?"

"More enemies are coming towards the atrium!" The Blade Samurai replied.

"Is it a demigod?" Eleanor thought that the nightmare should not be so simple, and when she looked up again, she saw Asker walking in with a long sword.

Elinor:!!!

Her heart tightened for a moment.

Even though she knew she was dreaming, she couldn't contain the chill in her limbs.

"Ellie." Aske said coldly, "This day has finally come. ”

"We're going to draw our swords against each other after all."

"I ......" Eleanor's lips opened slightly, but she couldn't make any sound.

A great and irrepressible grief enveloped her, but these negative emotions were soon dispelled by her will—and in the face of the nightmare's silent erosion, her indomitable skills began to exert the effects of resistance.

"It's just a nightmare." Eleanor said in a deep voice, as if trying to convince herself, "You're fake." ”

"You're not Asker!"
