Late at night.

Nuclear shelter under the College of Santa Maria.

Char carried the sleeping Emily on her back and ran wildly down the dark steps.

Click...

A noisy and strange sound came from a short distance behind him.

Tearing open the heads of high school girls, the monster "Nightmare" that ran out of their dreams followed Char closely.

Chirping...

There was a strange cry in the darkness, and a terrifying monster with the body of a gecko but a human head crawled up the wall, its mouth open like a snake, and a slimy tongue flew out.

Bang!

Char raised the Raging Bee pistol with one hand, decisively pulled the trigger, and a bullet whistled out, accurately hitting the monster's right eye.

There was no blood, no bodily fluids spilled out, and the monster's right eye shattered like glass.

It let out an ear-piercing scream that words can't describe, and it fell off the wall!

However, as soon as it fell a few meters, its entire body shattered, turning into countless points of light and dissipating out of thin air!

It's a dream after all!

Even in the real world, it's still a dream!

It's just a concept, there is only a layer of skin, and there is no bone meridian blood in the body that a living thing should have!

It came like a dream, and it was as clear as a dream!

"It's really a dream... Could it be..."

A bright light flashed in Char's mind, and he thought of a possibility!

Squeak squeak...

Char only stopped slightly, and the nightmares behind him came like a tidal wave, they were different in size, in different shapes, and the roars coming out of their mouths were also completely different. But these strange sounds gathered together were so similar to the sounds made by countless rats coming together.

Bang bang bang ...

Char stepped back as she poured bullets from the Angry Bee pistol onto Nightmare's body.

Char's marksmanship is very good, and even in fear, he can still hit Nightmare's eyes, throat and other vital points.

However, nightmares are terrifying creatures born in dreams, and their body structure is completely inconsistent with biology, and they do not have a heart, brain, or other life centers.

Unless their bodies are completely shattered, they will be forced back a few meters by the recoil of the bullets, and then they will drag their shattered bodies and continue to besiege Char.

The Angry Bee Pistol was so powerful that only the five-round reload disadvantage was revealed.

Moreover, Char only had fifty bullets, which would soon run out.

"Char... Can we get out of here? At some point, Emily woke up and whispered in Char's ear.

"You're awake, great!"

Char covered Emily's eyes to prevent her from looking directly at the nightmare from the nightmare, pointed to the steps above, and shouted, "Run!" Don't look back, run up! ”

The steps leading to the ground meander upwards and are pitch black.

From the constant gunfire, Emily could already see the nightmare horror.

She was frightened, her little face was full of fear, and she ran towards it with both hands and feet.

In a series of rapid shots, Char emptied all the bullets, buying Emily a few seconds.

Seeing that Emily had run away, Char breathed a sigh of relief, turned her head, and looked directly at the nightmare group.

At this moment, these terrifying monsters had surrounded Char and trapped him on the narrow steps.

Char, who has run out of bullets, is sure to die no matter how you look at it.

"If my conjecture is true..."

Char, who was in a desperate situation, not only did not panic, but smiled.

Facing the horde of terrifying nightmares, Char's right hand was raised, and a coin with an inverted tree appeared on his fingertips.

Bite!

With a soft sound, the coin was bounced high.

Hypnosis!

However, dreams are monsters from dreams, how can they be hypnotized?

At the same time, Char's eyes staring at the coin became blank!

He fell into a deep sleep!

His consciousness detached from his body and floated above his head.

Dream Wandering!

Char wants to hypnotize not the nightmare, but himself!

In this strange state, Char's consciousness entered the realm of dreams and began to build dreams.

Char's body, on the other hand, remained sleepwalking, standing motionless.

"Building dreams... I need to be real, as real as possible! ”

In a flash of thought, Char's memory flew out of his brain and turned into a picture that appeared in front of his consciousness.

That's a blueprint for a large-caliber shotgun!

The ability of the "reader" to remember makes the design drawings without the slightest error.

In Char's Dream Realm, a large-caliber shotgun was built and appeared in his hand!

However, it is a dream after all!

How can dreams become reality?

Unless it's the "Philosopher's Stone", a relic numbered "0-13" mentioned by Dr. Kakule, it can make dreams come true!

"If I'm right, Dream Elixir... It's the Philosopher's Stone. In other words, it has a great relationship with the Philosopher's Stone, so that it is possible to make the monsters in the dream manifest, turn into nightmares, and appear in the real world. If nightmares can materialize, so can shotguns! After all, Nightmares are just monsters embodied by ordinary high school students! And I'm a dream builder! ”

Char's consciousness held the large-caliber shotgun he had built, and with all his strength, threw it in the direction of his body below!

Click...

The space shattered like glass, and countless cracks appeared.

The large-caliber shotgun crosses the border between fantasy and reality and appears out of thin air in the hands of the real-life Char!

At this moment, a nightmare like a giant lizard stood upright, opened its bloody mouth, and bit Char!

Char's body was in a state of sleepwalking, and his movements were a little sluggish, but he was still under the control of his consciousness, raised his hand and stuffed the revealed shotgun into the nightmare's mouth, and pulled the trigger!

Bang!

With a muffled sound, the nightmare collapsed and disappeared as a point of light!

"That's the power of dreams..."

In the realm of dreams, Char looked shocked and couldn't help but gasp.

He didn't expect that dreams could really become reality!

The rumors of the Philosopher's Stone are true!

This shotgun is a hundred times more powerful than the Raging Bee pistol, and Char pulls the bolt, and the dull sound of gunfire continues to sound, shattering the nightmare's body and killing a bloody path!

Bang!

Char had just broken out of the siege when the shotgun in his hand suddenly shattered and disappeared into a point of light.

Dreams, shattered!

"What's going on?" Char couldn't understand.

How could a shotgun, which he had built exactly to the blueprints, be so fragile and shatter after just a few shots?

"Dreams... Just a concept. ”

Char's mind conjured up Dewey's words.

"Concept..."

Char pursed her lips and gained a deeper understanding of Dewey's words.

When you dream of a car, you may not know the basic structure of the car.

However, you must know what the car looks like and how it feels when you see it.

That's the concept.

Char built a shotgun according to the blueprints, but he couldn't perfectly simulate the recoil of the gun and the feeling of shooting.

Flawed dreams can easily be shattered!

"Concept... Feel..."

Char's consciousness once again entered the realm of dreams, and in that desolate land, he rebuilt the shotgun.

This time, Char no longer focuses on the structure of the shotgun and instead focuses on how it feels when the gun is fired.

Soon, a brand new shotgun appeared in Char's hand.

This shotgun looks a little funny on the outside, like a child's water gun, covered in awkwardly white plastic, and the barrel is a little twisted...

This inferior shotgun is embodied and appears in the hands of Char in the real world!

Bang!

Char pulled the trigger, and the muzzle of the gun spewed out a dazzling tongue of fire, blasting a nightmare flying in mid-air to pieces!

This shotgun, which looks like a toy, has even more ferocious firepower than the previous one!
