Chapter 254: Nightmare
"How are we going to meet the Nightmare?" Thor looked around the twist and looked at Strange beside him.
"Under normal circumstances, you need a nightmare to actively lure you into a dream, and then you may meet him. But given that we're taking an unconventional approach to entry, we may need a little bit of a small approach. "Strange began to use the energy of the surrounding nightmare dimension in a skillful way.
"Is that good?" Thor watched as Strange churned the energy around him, Thor's eyes widened.
"Yes, that's fine. I'm sure he'll be able to find it himself soon. If only he was indeed the Lord of the Nightmare Dimension. Strange lowered his hand, and with some nervousness, he moved the chain of time loop closures on his wrist.
Before coming, he had also asked the Ancient One how he had met the Nightmare. The Ancient One didn't have any secrets, and taught him in detail and meticulously the magic skills that were not recorded in the books in the library.
Judging by the effect of the spell, this should be a skill treasured by the Ancient One.
After Strange got the hang of it, he was a little numb.
As the ancient one said, the way to see the nightmare is very simple, just use this spell to forcibly extract and convert energy directly in his dimension, and the nightmare will definitely appear at that time.
Strange couldn't remember the mixed emotions he had when he heard this. If you go to the other party's house to steal other people's valuables, and you take the initiative to expose yourself under the security system of the master's house before you hide it, then he will definitely rush over in a hurry.
Strange was eager to ask: Is there any other way to meet that is a little safer and less stimulating for the host's family? However, after the Ancient One taught him, a neat mobile portal sent him back to Kama Taj.
If there is a better and more convenient way, Strange will not do it. So before extracting energy, he was very cautious to insure himself and Thor.
Really. The two Stranges, who were waiting on the spot, sensed the violent fluctuations in the energy of the surrounding space. Immediately after, a green figure appeared in front of them.
"Ancient One!" The person roared angrily, and the dimensional space around the oscillation of a certain energy frequency was flooded with layers of ripples, and then after seeing Strange and Thor clearly, the look of anger on the huge face froze.
"Wait, who are you? Intruders? What is the relationship between the Ancient One and you? "The nightmare gathered a strong energy, as if it would engulf them with a flood of energy in the next moment.
"We're here to talk to you about business." Strange stepped forward and shouted as if he were dead.
Sure enough. His cries didn't help. Nightmare didn't want to hear what he said at all, and directly used the energy behind him to violently engulf the other party.
However, when the torrent of energy dissipated, Strange and Thor stood up from the fading torrent of energy intact.
"We're here to talk to you about business." Strange looked at him and Thor in amazement, the two of them didn't seem to experience death. He tilted his head a little dazedly, looking at the nightmare that was also a little dazed at the two of them, and repeated his previous words.
Nightmare still ignored Strange's words, and instead came another flood of energy in disbelief.
"We're here to talk to you about business! We've got an energy-boosting package for you, and this package will give you a great boost of strength! Strange and the two walked out of the dissipated energy again, and Strange shouted very quickly.
Once.
Twice.
Three times.
Ten times.
After testing it many times in one breath, and finding that the ability that he was most proud of was really ineffective in the face of two people, Nightmare's whole face was at a loss. Where did these two come from? Obviously his energy and strength are not as good as his, but he is immune to his abilities. It's a bit beyond his long-standing experience.
"We're really here to talk to you about business, at least you listen to us first." Strange was already aware of a possibility, and he was pleasantly surprised to explain the business to Nightmare.
"Why don't you fall asleep?" However, Nightmare had no intention of listening to Strange's business, and now he was only interested in figuring out the secret of these two people's immunity to his abilities!
If the life of the real world is immune to his abilities, then wouldn't he have no future? This is smashing his job!
"Let's talk about business first, and then we'll tell you the secret." Strange spreads his hands. Although he also knew that his words might lead to some bad consequences, he couldn't have answered all the questions about the nightmare and leaked too much before the cooperation was reached and the contract was signed.
"Do you think I can't do anything about you?" Enraged by the two Nightmares of Strange who dared to negotiate with him, he sealed off his dimension and summoned the strange monsters that lived in the Nightmare Dimension.
"It looks like we're surrounded." Thor looked at the strange-looking figures emerging from the distorted energy mist, and carried his own Mjolnir in his hand.
"I knew it wasn't that easy." Strange sighed, but then moved very quickly to pull the stance. At this moment, he comprehended the words of the ancient one more deeply: "If you want to deal with the dimensional demon gods, you must first let them be helpless against you." ”
All kinds of absurd and strange creatures that can only be born in nightmares were forcibly summoned by nightmares, and they were ordered to charge at Strange and them.
Time has carved its mark into this dimension.
Strange and Thor have no sleep or food to destroy a large number of monsters that have spilled up, and even attack the Nightmare, forcing him into the big melee.
Most of the creatures in the Nightmare dimension have dimensional power characteristics, but they can't make Strange fall asleep, which makes their strength greatly reduced when facing the two of them. can only fight with the two of them like a reckless man.
Although they are some of the most powerful creatures in the Nightmare Dimension, their power is destined to be biased towards the spirit system. Let them fight hard, which is equivalent to sealing all the skills of a mage, and then let the other party carry a staff and fight hand-to-hand with a warrior who is proficient in combat skills.
I don't know how long it took for this great melee in the dimensional world to stop under the nightmare's reprimand.
Nightmare watched as the two of them slaughtered the lives under their command wave after wave, and finally killed the difficult mage, and the next moment, the other party appeared in front of him intact, with the sentence "We are here to talk to you about business".
After hundreds of cycles, the nightmare finally became a little unbearable.
Nightmare, who was immune to the strength trait, was beaten by two people after being dragged into the battlefield, and the damage was not great, and it was extremely insulting! Kill and can't kill, the power of the dream is immune to the other party, that mage, even the energy consumed in the fight is his power extracted!
The thought of the other party using his power to fight him and eliminate his men made Nightmare's huge face seem to wear a mask of pain.
Leave the other person alone? Waiting for the other party to fend for themselves?
It's impossible!
Who knows what kind of big moves this mage with the strong power imprint of the ancient one on his body and the same lineage can make in his dimensional world if he doesn't care about it.
Expelling the other party?
It's a good idea, but it's hard to say if the other side will find a way to invade again.
For a while, it was not to be released, nor was it to stay, and the two of them had a helpless nightmare, and the pain mask on their faces was put on again, and the pain came home.
"How the hell are you going to get out?" The nightmare drove away the monsters around him, and he planned to negotiate with the two of them first.
"We're here to talk to you about business, and we'll leave when we're done." Strange let out a long sigh of relief when he saw that Nightmare had finally shown a willingness to communicate. If this continues, until Luke's Stone of Tranquility for him and Thor is depleted, if they don't take the opportunity to leave, they will face a nightmare in their heyday.
"What are you going to talk about?" Nightmare was bent on sending the two away, and he had already decided, and when he heard the other party's words, he would vaguely let the other party leave.
"Talk about how to expand the power of the Nightmare Dimension. That is, how to increase the power of the Lord of Nightmares, you. Strange gushed over a manuscript he had obtained from Nick, polished but full of demagogic power.
It seems that as long as you follow the prompts in the words, the nightmare will soon be able to gain a lot of energy, and its power will skyrocket again. The nightmare, which was originally just about listening to it, was immersed in it for a while, and it was based on the picture that Strange depicted. He even felt that the mage in front of him was even better at demagogic than the devil in the hell dimension.
"Well, well, are you sure you can do that?" Nightmare was still a little incredulous, and asked cautiously for verification.
"You can sign a contract." Strange pulled out a piece of parchment.
"The stench of the Hell dimension! Wait, are you a disciple of the Ancient One, or a disciple of Mephisto? Nightmare looked at Strange with the parchment in dismay.
"Didn't I say that? Our Supreme Mage is now in a cooperative relationship with Mephisto. In addition to him, there is also Odin, the god-king of Asgard, who is Odin's heir, Prince Thor Odinson. Strange patted Thor on the shoulder beside him, and Thor gave him a blank look, his emotions still immersed in the battle just now. This time in Asgard can suffocate him.
"It's amazing that you're working together." Nightmare's eyes narrowed, he instinctively felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say anything. Let's talk about traps, this trap is too crude, especially since the other party is quite sincere.
"Everything is always changing." Strange shrugged indifferently.
"As agreed, you'll let me see the results and the facts first, right?" Nightmare asked intriguingly. Yes, he was tempted! For a demon god of his level, he urgently needed to absorb more energy in order to propel his power to continue to rise.
If it's not for energy and expanding their dimensional world, who wants to bother their hearts and lungs and risk being beaten up? The characteristics of his strength doomed him to leave his dimension, and his strength would drop significantly.
If there really is a safe and convenient way to obtain energy, he is certainly happy to try it. It can be said that this copy accurately hit the heart of a demon god like him.
"Yes, Luke, a veteran member of the alliance meeting, provided the technology, you only need to give a little cooperation." Strange took out the Black Nightmare Seed that Luke had given him and displayed it in front of the Nightmare's eyes.
"Sweet nightmare vibes. I felt the throbbing of the dimensional world. Nightmare's eyes widened, and her giant face was full of undisguised coveting of the Black Nightmare Seed.
"That's our sincerity." Strange Road.
"Give it to me! Give it to me! I will meet all your requirements! Nightmare said eagerly.
"You'll need to talk to its maker." Strange spread his hands helplessly.
"Its maker must be a master of the mind and darkness." The Nightmare dragged the Black Nightmare Seed into front of his eyes and looked at it in fascination. If he had gotten this earlier, how many detours would he have taken! How strong should his power be?
Even because of the appearance of the [Black Nightmare Seed], even this terrible battle, and the mage who still made him feel uncomfortable and unhappy, made him feel a little more pleasing to the eye for a while.
He was now full of thoughts about studying the structure of this [Black Nightmare Seed] as soon as possible, as for the cooperation or non-cooperation? Well, let's talk about it first. When he researches and cracks the [Black Nightmare Seed] and uses the energy of the Nightmare Dimension to create it, then he has a very high choice whether to cooperate or not, how to cooperate, and whether to cooperate or not.
It's a big deal to continue to go it alone.
The greed, perfunctory, and cunning on Nightmare's face were so undisguised that even the rectum-like Thor could easily see it. He turned his gaze to Strange in confusion, but Strange didn't look at him. In the case that Nightmare made it clear that he wanted to drive people away, Strange pulled Lator and agreed with Nightmare on the time of the next meeting, and when the other party did not have the slightest intention of retaining, and even took the initiative to unlock the dimensional blockade, and when he almost said that you should hurry up, he waved out the portal and dragged Thor into the portal.
Anyway, his mission has been completed, he has successfully met Nightmare, successfully reached an intention to cooperate with him, and successfully handed over what Luke wanted to give Nightmare. The rest of the affairs are not his own.
