Clang! Clang! Clang!

The pounding of the pendulum reverberated throughout the Nightmare Hotel. The original thirteen hands were retracted into three regular hour hands, which rotate quietly on the dial. The rope that drooped gradually pulled up, and the puffed clock shrank in response, becoming one of the inconspicuous decorations in the lobby of the Nightmare Hotel.

"Good morning, Merlin." Sheldon gently lifted the corner of the cup and said hello to him.

There was no blood on his body, and his tone was steady, as if nothing had happened. Indeed, everything on the desk was put back in place, and the hanging muscles and blood were all gone.

"Good morning...... "Merlin rubbed his eyes and said softly, "Hmm...... Still want to ...... Sleep a little more. ”

His eyes couldn't help but glance at the desk, only to find that there was nothing but a copy of the Holy Judgment lying there.

It tells the story of the power disputes between the gods in ancient times, as well as various wild histories, secrets, and memorabilia. At the end of the "Divine Judgment", there are various doctrines, and basically every god represents a rule, and if there were no differences of opinion, perhaps there would not be so much affection and hatred......

Truth be told, no one believes in these things now. The Divine Judgment has long been confirmed to be a compilation of seven novels, the author of which is unknown. On the desk in Sheldon's room was the third volume. It mainly tells the story of the [God of Justice] Hermetex, the most famous of which can be described as the deeds of entering the swamp of chaos and taking out the [Holy Hammer]. Because of this, she used this golden hammer to forge the path to the throne and became one of the gods.

The page that is now turned is the first page of [Breaking the Source of the Mist], that is, after taking the Holy Hammer, Hemetex used the Holy Hammer in his hand to dispel all the fog of injustice, and finally turned the Swamp of Chaos into the beginning of the Land of Order.

"The early bird gets the worm." Sheldon said with a smile.

"However, early worms are also eaten by birds......" Merlin frowned and said easily something that would never be said at this age, "I'm still a worm......"

"Wow, that's really disgusting to me." In Merlin's knowledge, Nightmare pretended to "vomit", "But what he said is also right, it's better to get up first." In other words, we don't need sleep for nightmares. ”

"Don't you feel comfortable!" Márquez retorted in surprise, "You and I are enlightened...... Lying in bed...... I can't get up, this feeling...... I'm just a kid now, and I haven't slept fourteen hours a day......"

"Go, go!" Merlin said impatiently, "Get me up!" ”

Although, it's really nice to lie in bed and think about nothing.

"Oh, let me remind you, something 'funny' seemed to happen last night, so don't be scared when you're asleep."

"How did you see that?" Márquez asked, confused.

"I separated a little bit of energy body, looked at it twice, and said that we don't need to sleep in nightmares." Advanced Nightmares can easily strip a part of their body from the main body, so it is safe to perform operations that are not suitable for the main body.

"What's wrong?" Merlin was washing up under Sheldon's service, not saying a word, and this was the time for the conversation in his head.

"Giggle...... Nightmare's voice tinged with layers of vanity, "but you should be okay with that...... Sooner or later. ”

"What the hell is going on?" Márquez said impatiently, "Could it be that someone is dead?" Who would be so blind-"

"Congratulations! That's right! Nightmare was the first to steal the conversation, "and...... Still dead in front of Sheldon. He dragged back one of his severed hands that night and rested it on his desk. Of course, the blood was cleaned up, and Sheldon didn't sleep all night. ”

"......" Márquez didn't answer, his attention returning to his body.

Nightmares disdain to take over the flesh, and the shackles of the flesh only disgust them, and neither does He.

Soon, Sheldon was done with his washing.

Oh yes, and the others don't know Merlin's identity as a "free man" in this dream.

So he let go of Merlin's hand and whispered, "We can't hold hands in front of others now, and we don't touch others." ”

"Hmm." Merlin nodded, indicating that he could go.

Squeak——!!

The wooden gate was opened, revealing its original appearance—

Why...... Sheldon swallowed his saliva, the smell of blood lingering on the tip of his nose......

Shocked by the blood red, he hurriedly ran out of the room, and found that the surroundings of his guest room had long become unsightly......

It was as if several balloons filled with blood were smashing wildly in front of Sheldon's door like a mischief, cascading and scattering like a shockwave.

"If you don't want to watch it, don't watch it, don't force yourself." Nightmare whispered in Márquez's ear, "It's not good for kids." ”

"I ......" Merlin also smelled a fishy smell, which was definitely a disgusting smell, sticky and greasy.

"Ho ——!!!" Merlin forced himself to look away at his stiff head—it was a human head, nowhere to be found below the head, and the horrified look on his face was a little struck at him.

He hurriedly stepped back, and found that the bits and pieces of flesh and severed limbs were scattered in the scarlet aisle, which was not at all the same as when he came yesterday!

"Tut-tut......" In the sea of knowledge, Merlin's voice was very leisurely, "Are you okay?" But I think I'll be able to get used to these things after watching them. ”

Sheldon hurriedly ran, panicked, and tried to cover Merlin's eyes, but he was forced to do so in public, so he had to stand upright.

"You, are you alright? I didn't expect that either! Sheldon's voice was shuffled, as if he had killed someone, "Are you alright?" Can you answer that? ”

"Hmm......" Seeing this, Merlin felt a burst of warmth in his heart for some reason, and his eyes changed from the original gloom to clarity, "I...... I'm fine, no...... It's okay. This...... What are they? It looks disgusting. ”

"Let's go eat, and don't mention him if you don't like it." Sheldon whispered, as if to avoid suspicion.

The two quickly arrived at the restaurant, only to find that it was already crowded, and only the two of them were left unattended. The restaurant has a full breakfast of freshly baked bread, hard-boiled eggs and, of course, tempting sausages. There is also a corner of the restaurant where milk and coffee and tea are served, and coffee and tea are available during the day. For some reason, there are no fresh fruits and vegetables here, most of them are things that can fill your stomach.

Everyone was taking and walking in silence, carefully avoiding each other, keeping a safe distance. In case one accidentally touches the other person, and the other party happens to be a "killer...... It's a joke with your own life.

Peman was there, she had a sandwich this morning, with an egg, and there was no one next to him, and Martin sat at the table beside her, looking at least two or three meters away.

"Dad, what's going to eat this morning?"

"I'll give you whatever you want to eat." Sheldon was a little nervous for some reason.

Soon, the two of them had their own breakfast, and the interesting thing was that most of the people around them had no intention of leaving at all, and their expressions were different, as if they were all planning their own little calculations.

The few who have no expression should be Peman and Houston, the two of them have long been accustomed to the wind and frost, and they can successfully accept anything.

Very tacit, extremely tacit, thirteen people sat quietly in their respective seats, motionless.

"Guys, we should know very well that 'Five' was killed." Peman was the first to break the peace, "You should know very well what he did last night. ”

"Deserve it......" someone muttered quietly, but they didn't know who it was.

The atmosphere of tension and fear was quietly expanding, gradually overwhelming one's breath.

"Why the trial conference was not held, everyone should be clear." Houston's voice was hoarse, and a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "However, everyone doesn't have my strength, try not to challenge the [monster] that appeared in the middle of the night, everyone has been killed by this unknown thing, how boring~"

"There are many secrets within this dream world, and it is not worth wasting on this. The dream world is not a dead end, and the real rules will not be fully revealed in front of you, and you will need to dig into them. Until the last moment...... It's never too late to say more. "Shelton, as everyone's emergency affairs consultant, should also make a statement.

"Hehehehe...... Are you sure there really are any 'real rules'? It's nonsense! The rules of this game are clear! It's cannibalism! ”

"Then let me ask you, One, why don't you kill it yourself?" Sheldon's voice tinged with coldness.

"The real rules ......," Márquez muttered to himself.

"There aren't really any rules, the rules set out by Nightmare are comprehensive enough, but ...... There are some additional extras that are not necessary to say it. The real nightmare will instead take advantage of the opportunity for the other party to escape from the dream world to make a fuss. "Nightmares will play on something unexpected, but they won't go beyond the rules, because [rules] are rules, and they can't be disobeyed." ”

"Something unexpected? What is the meaning? ”

"Like, for example, something that induces you to kill someone. A pistol, a knife. Killing people is not all about muscles, brains, brains! ”

"You think I can kill right now?"

"That's right, it's useless for you to kill people now, you're not a participant."

"I don't want to hear you, you can play by yourself......" Márquez squeezed away the spirit that had been posted by the nightmare, his tone full of disgust.

"Good, good...... Then I wish you a wonderful day~"

That's not a good thing.
