Late at night, in a dream.

on the streets of the church area.

With a flash of black light, the penitent's bare head snapped free of its chains, slammed into the air with a strong impact, and rolled along the ground for a long distance.

Du Mu slowly withdrew his long sword, watching the penitent's corpse turn into gray light and sink into his eyebrows, before he exhaled softly.

Since the first competition, three days have passed, during which Du Mu has fought more than 20 battles with Du Shuang, and he has gained a lot, but his strength has not changed qualitatively.

Three days ago, Du Shuang's words made Du Mu involuntarily feel a sense of crisis in his heart.

I thought that the adventure in the dream world would greatly increase my strength, and it would not be a big problem to be admitted to the best university in the Federation, but I didn't expect Du Shuang to give him a direct blow to the head and let him wake up from the fluttering strength of the skyrocket.

That's right, the dream realm is indeed very magical, as long as it exists, Du Mu's future achievements may not be lost to those top heavenly pride, but after all, he started too late, and the accumulation of strength takes time, not to mention that compared with the best group of people in the whole federation, even in the third-tier city of Haoguang City, among the candidates in this session, his advantages are not outstanding.

"Strength! I still need more strength!"

As if returning to the situation before he had obtained the dream adventure, Du Mu's heart swelled with an urgent desire for power.

"I was thinking of getting rid of all the confessors in the square and exploring the other streets, but now I don't think I'm going to take a risk!"

Stopping at the edge of the square, Du Mu stopped and watched.

After these days of hard work, almost all of the bodies on the crosses on this side of the square, near his street, had been emptied, creating a vacuum safe area more than twelve meters wide and about thirty meters long.

It is not necessary to be chased by the confessors when you step into the square, as long as you keep a distance of ten meters from each other, you will not alarm the sleeping confessors!

This is the law that Du Mu has studied these days!

At the end of the vacuum area, about forty meters further on the diagonal right, is the entrance to another street.

However, even in this short distance of forty meters, if one had to pass, there would be at least forty penitents who were alarmed at the same time.

Judging from the habit of chasing after the confessors woke up, if Du Mu broke into it rashly, even if he successfully reached that street, he would not be able to escape the miserable end of being smashed into meat sauce by a large number of confessors.

"You can't fight head-on!"

Du Mu came to a conclusion, thought about it for a long time, and quickly had an idea in his heart.

The best way to deal with penitents with low IQ and rigid actions is to lure them away from the mountain.

Du Mu took out three naval soldier figures from the dimensional house, and then after thinking about it, he took out the remaining two together and put them on the ground.

That's all he has in stock!

The five naval soldiers were quickly summoned and stood in front of Du Mu in a row, exuding a fierce and capable aura, unaware of the tragic fate that was about to come.

After giving the order to the naval soldiers, Du Mu found a place to hide at the edge of the square, and watched with bated breath as the soldiers slowly entered the cleared vacuum area, and cautiously walked towards the end.

The night was silent, except for the faint echo of the footsteps of the soldiers.

In a short time, they entered the warning area of the penitents.

In an instant, on the outermost cross at the end of the vacuum, four or five penitents suddenly opened their eyes, struggled violently and writhed, and their chains fell sharply.

In the face of this scene, the soldiers were not afraid, but accelerated the speed of their advance, let go of their feet and ran forward frantically, and in an instant this area was like boiling water, boiling violently, and the sound of chain friction was loud.

It was not until the confessor on the cross closest to the opposite street awoke that the five sailors stopped running as if they were deadly, turned around and ran, and galloped in the opposite direction.

The sound of fluttering behind him continued, and after the penitent fell to the ground, there was no pause at all, and he immediately shook his body and chased after him.

Du Mu watched as five navy soldiers with solemn faces rushed past not far in front of him, with a large group of chained confessors hanging behind him.

Halfway through, seven or eight confessors threw out their arms in unison, accompanied by a dull whistling sound, and a naval soldier who fell at the end was hit by countless chains at the same time in the blink of an eye, screaming and falling out, and his body in mid-air had been twisted into a strange arc, and he couldn't survive.

This scene made Du Mu's heart tighten, and he didn't dare to delay any longer, lest after the navy soldiers were all wiped out, the confessor would return again.

Seeing his chance, he quickly ran out of his hiding place and sprinted towards the entrance to the street in the distance.

The penitents were preoccupied with chasing down the navy soldiers, and did not notice him as an uninvited guest.

Du Mu's figure was galloping, and the dense crosses swayed from both sides, and after a while, the trace of the street entrance clearly appeared in his vision, and at the same time, the remaining four connections in his mind disappeared like strings in an instant.

All the sailors were killed!

There was a faint sound of chains dragging the ground in the distance behind him, obviously the confessors were returning, but fortunately, at this time Du Mu was already very close to the destination, and the whole person jumped into the street like lightning, and the figure disappeared into the faint mist in the blink of an eye.

Seven or eight seconds later, the penitents returned to their original crosses.

Whew!

In the middle of the new street, Du Mu gasped for breath and tried his best to calm his breathing.

"It's finally here!"

He looked behind him and saw that it was unusually quiet, and the distant sounds were gone, and it was clear that the penitents had not noticed his 'stowaway'.

Seeing this, joy appeared on Du Mu's face, and after a short rest, he continued to move forward.

"I hope there's something on this street that will increase my strength. ”

Walking through the silent streets, Du Mu flashed a touch of anticipation in his heart.

At present, in the dream realm, there are two things that he has found that can promote the improvement of strength, the same is nightmare energy, which is mainly used to upgrade and unlock skills.

It's a pity that because his physical fitness does not meet the conditions, he has more than 50 nightmare energy in hand, but he can only watch and his skills cannot be upgraded.

The second is the capsule toy machine, and the nutrition express obtained from the gacha greatly promotes his forging efficiency.

In addition, things like the Combat Probe, Navy Soldier figurines, and dimensional house stickers also help him a lot.

It's a pity that the types of items in that capsule tochapon machine seem to be limited, and Du Mu only draws the same few things over and over again, which is extremely limited for him now.

And like the combat power detector and the dimensional house sticker, Du Mu has only drawn them once so far, and it seems that these two things are unique extraction items.

Thoughts flew in his mind, but in reality, Du Mu did not dare to relax, and carefully looked around while moving forward.

Although undisturbed, the Confessor generally does not wake up from their slumber and wanders around, but it is not excluded that other Nightmare Monsters will appear.

Be careful!

With a hint of anticipation in this cautious vigilance, Du Mu walked along the street for hundreds of meters, and a dark shadow gradually appeared at the end of his vision.
