Chapter 8, The Man Chosen by the Nightmare

"You've seen my brother, he's gone, right?"

As soon as Shen Yi wanted to step forward to say hello, he was surprised by Xiao Xi's affirmative tone.

"It seems that Xiaoxi likes you very much, she doesn't usually like to talk much, you talk first, I'll wait outside." The old dean seemed to sense something, too.

"Your brother, he went where he was supposed to be."

"Yes, my brother is dead, and he can't stay with me anymore."

Shen Yi especially wanted to say, can you two brothers and sisters talk well, it's very scary.

"Don't be so surprised, I've had a nasty ability since I was born, I can see different things."

"That day, in addition to the five people present, there was another person, well, I should say that the ghost was present, and I called that person "Nightmare".

He was standing behind my brother, and I saw him, and he realized that I could see him.

I wanted to tell my brother that it was dangerous, that someone was standing behind him, but he grabbed me by the throat.

I couldn't make a sound, I could only cry all the time, and I wanted to tell them to go, but no one understood what I meant. ”

My sister picked up the pen and paper on the table again.

Shen Yi found out that on the painting that Xiao Xi had painted just now, it was a villain tied up, and then the villain disappeared, leaving only an empty bed.

The pencil falls on the paper, rubbing it into a rustling sound.

"He was standing in the fire, like a demon, and I could see him, but I couldn't stop him.

When he left, he said to me, "There is only one of you two who can live, and that person is the one chosen by the nightmare."

I didn't understand what he meant, but then I woke up from the hospital and I understood.

I'm the one who survived and was chosen by the nightmare.

Maybe I shouldn't have been the one who survived. ”

Xiao Xi handed Shen Yi a painted picture, and the painting was a red fire, and the villain tied up by a rope was looking at the back of the "nightmare".

"After my brother left, I started having nightmares every night, dreaming about the scene of that day, and I cried and tried to stop it, but it didn't work.

Every day, every day, a nightmare is repeated.

Until one day, a pencil appeared at the head of my bed, and when I held it, many blurry and unfamiliar images always flashed in my mind.

The more often I had nightmares, the clearer the picture I saw, and then, I saw my brother tied up and then disappeared.

I hate this ability, I'm the one chosen by nightmares, and I can't escape it. So, I didn't want to sleep, I forced myself to be awake all the time. ”

Shen Yixin still didn't understand why a three- or four-year-old child was so mature and dark when he said it.

Now he understands how a person who lives in a nightmare can still maintain his innocence.

"Your eyes shouldn't be a burden on you, it's because you have a different eye that you can spot the danger at the first time, maybe you haven't woken up in the hospital, but if you open your eyes, you can see him and stay by your side all the time.

It's just that you are still young and do not have the ability to protect yourself and protect your family, but you will be able to discover in the future that you can use this magical ability to predict danger and protect the people you want to protect. ”

Xiao Xi lowered his head and clenched his pencil.

"I'm here today to convey your brother's last wishes, and I'm still worried about how to explain to you how I know your brother.

It's much easier now, he doesn't want you to be used by someone with a heart, and he wants you to find a real warm home, which is his last and only wish. ”

Although he was talking to a three- or four-year-old child, Shen Yi knew that he couldn't treat the other party as a child.

"Also, he asked me to tell you that the murderer who set the fire is dead."

I believe that he doesn't need to say more, Xiaoxi will understand.

"The kid is painting again?" The dean looked a little annoyed.

"Well, maybe this kid has a talent for it. It may seem strange to draw something, but it's also very clever to be able to tell what you're drawing at a glance. ”

"You don't have to worry too much about her psychological problems, I had a good chat with her, there should be no problems, and some things do need to be digested by herself."

It's better not to let others know about the difference, after all, not everyone can understand this kind of thing.

In fact, he also felt that he could accept the nightmare system so quickly, and it was strange to come into contact with another world, maybe it had something to do with his lost memories.

"Dingβ€”"

"Dingβ€”"

"Ding-" a series of beeps.

Shen Yi on the return trip, looking at the message reminder on the black phone.

"Trial Quest - Surviving Child, Forced On"

"The trial quest has been completed, and the quest reward is the Spiritual Eye (you who are in a deep nightmare, you have opened your eyes)"

"The limited-time mission, Xiaoxi's painting, has been opened. (Where no one can see, there is also a pair of eyes)"

"The limited-time mission has been completed, and the mission reward is the key to the unfinished building. Nightmare is worth 100 points"

"The task release has been refreshed, please complete the daily task as soon as possible."

"Daily task – 100 squats in 5 minutes"

"Trial Quest - The Unfinished Building"

"Limited Time Mission - Starts after completing the Trial Mission."

The last one is the message marked in red.

"The host is seriously threatened, the system will be automatically upgraded, and an attack system will be added, please confirm whether to merge the system."

Shen Yi looked at the buttons that filled the screen again.

He had a not-so-good premonition that the days to come would be very different.

Be!

"The system is merging 10%, 30%, 50%, 100%"

"The merge is complete."

"After the system is updated, the offensive skill rewards, search page, ghost profile, etc., and other content is waiting for the host to discover."

"Congratulations to the host for getting the Nightmare System Attack Bonus, Reward - Special Skill: Soul Painting (Use the system's photo function to draw souls, each time you draw, you can temporarily reduce the opponent's strength by 3%. )”

"The trial quest has been opened, this quest is extremely dangerous, and it is not recommended that the host start it immediately."

It's quite intimate.,There's no time limit.,It's not too rushed.,But with the experience of the last forced opening.,To be on the safe side.,It's better to hurry up the attack power.。

Otherwise, if you force it on again, you will be forced offline.

Shen Yi looked at the 100% power displayed on the phone, and it seems that this phone should not need to be charged.

When he got home, Shen Yi slept the only good sleep of the weekend, and he had no dreams all night.

Shen Yi, who was resurrected the next day, completed his daily tasks neatly.

"Dingβ€”"

"The daily quest has been completed, and the quest rewards: Special Skill - Dream (The one who comes is a guest, don't you come to sit in my dream?) )”

There was no class in the morning, so Shen Yi went back to the dormitory directly at ten o'clock.

"Yo, come on, come on, Shen Yi came back first, I won the bet, you have all the socks for this month!"

As soon as Shen Yi entered the door, he heard Chen Kai screaming there.

This university is a dormitory for four people, with beds and tables, Chen Kai is in bed No. 3, and he bets with Du Qin in bed No. 4.

Chen Kai and Du Qin's homes are in Linshi, and they usually don't go home except for small long holidays, so the two often bet together to see which one comes back first, Chen Kai and Zhang Xin in bed No. 2.

This boring bet has turned into a "battle for dignity" between them, catalyzed by the more and more stinky socks they have accumulated in the first two months.

Shen Yi was no stranger to this.

"Hasn't Zhang Xin come back yet?"

"Well, this kid, I said I'll come back early today, it's ten o'clock, and he has to wash half of my stinky socks this month."

Du Qin lost the bet, his mood was not high, and he was humming and chirping when he spoke.

"Du Qin. You guys are complicit! Chen Kai pounced on Du Qin and started fighting.
