PS: The fourth update, it's another 10,000-word update! Where is the pro-tip voting subscription? Lori who works hard wants to support.

.....

All of this seems to hide a deep puzzle.

Tip of the iceberg.

It's just that Wu Hao's gaze is now on another point.

"Why...... Twelve again? ”

"What does that number really mean?"

"So many twelve, is it just a coincidence?"

The human scalp paper world is underworld~hun involves twelve-headed ghosts!

The world of time ~ hun is also twelve!

Wu Hao's authority in the first hour is twelve hours!

Even the division of grades is twelve quarters!

And the events in front of you, too!

If Wu Hao remembers correctly, in the grotesque game, the number twelve also runs through all aspects of the game.

I didn't think it was when I used to play games, but now different worlds, different things, and different things seem to involve the number twelve!

That's where it gets interesting.

What does this number mean?

This has to make Wu Hao care, he always has a feeling that this number is very important. Behind it, there are deep secrets.

"Whew~"

After a while, Wu Hao shook his head, a little puzzled.

Looking around, the black fog still hadn't dissipated, but the inexplicable footsteps and whispers had disappeared before.

"It seems that the human hair obtained in the Lalaye space is here, so there should be other humans here besides the weird altar old man?"

"These guys, like the old man, are likely to have never been stopped?"

"Just, where are they hiding?"

Wu Hao found no trace of human activity in the small town of Priest. In reality, this town is so strange that even he can't figure out the situation inside.

Even in the game, the town of Priest, as the location of the Dream City, is very special. The strange creatures belonging to the Dream Tapir clan were born here.

It was a strange creature, and it was rumored that the Nightmare King was transformed from them. It is also rumored that they are the servants of the Nightmare King, who were originally ordinary humans, but evolved due to the Nightmare King's grotesque powers.

Wu Hao has hunted this creature in the game, how to describe this creature, you can imagine that they are a kind of monster that has no fixed form, cannot be exposed to the sun, and is like a shadow, which can parasitize in human dreams and devour the human spirit as food.

It's hard to deal with, and it's hard to spot.

In fact, they are equivalent to nightmares that are one size smaller, but their power is too weak compared to nightmares.

Some humans with strong spiritual wills can resist the invasion of dreams by dream tapirs.

However, due to its concealment, this monster was not gradually recognized until the Nightmare King launched the Dream Plague that swept the world.

Later, the appearance of the dream ball made dealing with or detecting this existence a very simple ritual, and in the end, this strange creature was almost hunted in the hands of hunters.

"So, in the small town of Priest, it is likely that there is a group of dream tapirs alive? Those weird footsteps, maybe that's what these things do? ”

Wu Hao frowned.

It's a little tricky!

If these guys are really these guys, it is not just because Wu Hao does not have a dream ball on hand that feels tricky, but also because of Wu Hao himself.

As a grotesque, is there a dream ball, to deal with this kind of grotesque servant, although not to say directly crushed, but it is not difficult to deal with.

But it is precisely because Wu Hao is grotesque that this hinders him. If you want to deal with the dream tapir, you need to enter the dream world, but it is grotesque, almost can't sleep, and sleeping is just Wu Hao returning to his rune space and hiding in the soul fire.

If he doesn't dream, he doesn't sleep, he can't get close to the dream world at all, he can't enter the dream world, what can he do to deal with the dream tapir in the dream world?

"Forget it! Let's go find the nightmare first. ”

"These tapirs are still attached to the power of nightmares after all. As long as you find the nightmare and figure out its condition, you can solve these nightmares. If I'm not mistaken, hunting the dream tapir can obtain pure soul crystals, which can greatly evolve and improve the soul, and for humans who rely on mutated organs to evolve, they can quickly eliminate spiritual pollution. ”

"And for me, it will definitely make the soul fire more vigorous, which will help me control all the runes."

Wu Hao pondered silently.

Dream tapirs crystallize, which is why they were almost hunted out in the later period.

Even if it's a little weird, love to hunt these guys. After all, spirit is the root of everything.

.....

Early the next morning

The fog surrounding the town of Priest gradually faded, and Wu Hao took advantage of the early morning time to start walking towards the huge dead volcano not far away.

The closer you get to the dead volcano, the more distorted the surrounding plants become, and when you reach the foot of the volcano, you can already see some plants, all of which have been distorted into energy states. It grows in a zigzag way, and it even looks like a python.

At the same time, the closer you get to the dead volcano, the more illusory, misty, filthy, and depraved the breath becomes. By the time Wu Hao bypassed the countless magma fields and landed halfway up the mountain, this aura was so thick that it almost formed a substantial gas.

It's a huge black fog that envelops the entire volcano in the sky!

As we approached the top of the mountain, strange and strange scenes began to appear all around.

There are illusory figures flashing, there are inexplicable beasts shattering, and there are houses that suddenly appear, only to collapse in the next moment.

There were huge legs that crossed the void, and dense eyes appeared in the air.

Everything seems to have entered a very strange and twisted world that cannot be described in words.

"Sure enough, it's here!"

Wu Hao was secretly frightened.

Nightmare World!

To be more precise, these strange scenes in front of him are the spontaneous interference of the nightmare world owned by the Nightmare King to the outside world.

For the nightmare world, there used to be different opinions in the game, and the official voice is unknown. Some scholars have suggested that this is a small world derived from the strange power of the Nightmare King, similar to the Lalaye mind space of Cthulhu, the king of the deep sea.

However, some scholars have suggested that, according to the accounts of some people who have escaped from the nightmare world, the nightmare space is likely to be a terrifying space that is not inferior to the real world. And the power of the Nightmare King is nothing more than connecting this world.

There is a lot of evidence for this latter speculation. Back then, the Nightmare King set off a terrifying dream disaster, almost devouring the real world with the Nightmare World, if the Nightmare World was not a truly complete world, similar to the Lalaye space, even if the Nightmare King was strong, it would be impossible to devour the real world that gave birth to it.

Therefore, some people even speculated that the Nightmare King was not a creature of this world at all, but belonged to another terrifying place called Nightmare World.

Now, in reality, Wu Hao doesn't know what kind of state the Nightmare King is. Even less aware of the nightmare world it possesses.

Thoroughly climbed to the top of the mountain.

Wu Hao looked at the huge crater.

Suddenly stunned slightly.

I saw a huge crater, and the inside was not fiery magma, but a colorful psychedelic state, where strange energy seemed to float, and countless strange phenomena were condensing.

A huge multicolored film-like thing, covering the depths of the crater, was like a huge portal barrier, quietly waiting for him to explore.
