On the top floor of a clock tower in the bustling city of New York, between night and dawn, the high skyline is slightly brightened with white clouds, and a hammock made of spider webs is constantly tossing and turning with the teenager lying on it.

The boy was dragging a spider hood in his hand, his face was haggard and anxious, and his dark circles were thick, as if he was suffering.

"Spider Boy?"

At the mouth of the spiral staircase of the bell tower, there was a shout that was neither light nor heavy.

Peter Parker woke up instantly, quickly put on his hood, and listened to two footsteps, "Oh my God, the spider sense actually failed, I didn't feel anyone approaching." ”

"What are you muttering?"

Rojo walked to the top floor and looked down, there was a height of thirty or forty meters, "Climbing to a high place, it is indeed the nature of a spider." ”

"Spider Boy, you don't sound good."

Logan, who had come with him, heard Peter's weakness.

"I'm sorry, I haven't slept in days."

Peter Parker sighed deeply, covered his head, shook it vigorously, and said, "I can't sleep, I don't dare to sleep, that dream has been echoing in my mind for the past few days, no matter what, I can't get rid of it, it's going to drive me crazy!" I don't understand what this dream means and what it wants to express! ”

The teenager's emotions were a little excited, especially when there was someone to talk to, and his pain was exhaled in one breath.

"Calm down."

Rojo stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder and asked softly, "Tell me, what's wrong?" ”

"I don't know, maybe, that's what you're talking about witchcraft."

Peter Parker's tone was full of fear, "Just a few days after the last separation, I had a strange dream, the dream was calm at first, then it started to get dark, I woke up, I was still in bed that night, but the next day, it was the same dream, I opened my eyes again, and I was on the street, but I didn't have the slightest impression, and then it happened a few times, and I realized that I might have fallen for that "witchcraft"."

"This thing is still contagious?"

Logan Howlett touched his chin and said, "But neither I nor Rojo have any problems." ”

"Or maybe it's not our turn yet."

After listening to Rojo's thoughts, the situation was more serious than he imagined, and even Peter could be troubled.

"I'm scared that the wizard can make me have that nightmare, which means that he may have found me, and he knows my identity, and he is likely to hurt my family."

Peter Parker's tone was a little desperate, and he said, "I can't imagine how those former enemies will take revenge on me and my family and friends if one day their identities are exposed."

"Don't sigh like that, just because he can cast spells on you doesn't mean he knows you."

Logan Howlett reassured.

"But I don't dare bet, maybe I'm too cowardly."

Peter Parker said, taking off his hood and revealing his young, angular face, and said haggardly, "I don't want anyone to be hurt again." ”

"Oh my God, you're still a high school student!"

Logan Howlett was surprised that Spider-Man looked only three or four years younger than Rojo, and he was still a milky child.

"When you take off your hood, you choose to trust us, and since you have made your choice, rest assured, no matter what the problem is, we will help solve it."

Rojo was surprised, Peter took off his hood and confessed, representing that the teenager chose to trust them, and also made the matter look more serious, otherwise Peter would definitely not ask for help.

"Well, my name is Peter Parker, you can call me Peter."

Peter nodded, understanding that now was not the time to be discouraged, and asked, "What should we do now?" ”

"Peter, is there anyone in your house tonight?"

Rojo asked.

"Aunt Mei went on a business trip, and now I'm alone at home, otherwise I wouldn't be outside in the middle of the night."

Peter put on his hood and said.

"God, he's really a kid, and he's still being taken care of by his aunt, but listen to you, your aunt is still single?"

Logan Howlett said, capturing the point.

"Hmm."

Peter nodded innocently.

"Uncle Wolf, let's get down to business first."

Rojo hurriedly interrupted Uncle Wolf and said, "Peter, go to your house first." ”

"What are you going to do?"

"You've got to go sleep first, and I think you can have a dream before it's fully dawn."

The trio jumped on the roof in the murky midnight, and in a few moments, they arrived at an apartment building in a neighborhood in Queens.

The neighborhood is located in a modest location with a low crime rate, not far from the school, and a supermarket and convenience store restaurant downstairs.

The three of them climbed in through the window, the lights were off in the room, and the colored lights hanging from the Lego toys on the table were flickering.

To be on the safe side, Peter Parker took off his battle suit, put on his pajamas, tiptoed around the living room, and made sure that Aunt May's shoes were not in the shoe cabinet, and then he was relieved to return to the room.

"Say, what should I do?"

Peter rubbed the dark circles under his eyes and sat down on the soft bed tiredly.

"You just need to sleep, and only after falling asleep will we have a chance to come into contact with that wizard."

Rojo pulled up a chair and sat down on the edge of the bed.

He had thought about continuing to follow those sleepwalkers, but he thought that once he was detected during the tracking, the sleepwalkers would faint directly, so he gave up this idea.

He plans to try to find the wizard behind the scenes through dreams.

"You're going to use that ability?"

Logan Howlett raised an eyebrow, thinking telepathically.

"Hmm."

Rojo read his mind and said, "Nightmares have to do with the mind, we can start with that, besides, you can't expect me to find a real wizard or mystic." ”

"There may be a righteous mage"

Logan shrugged.

"Peter, you go to bed first, don't be so nervous."

Rojo used telepathy to constantly hypnotize Peter to sleep.

At the same time, he was also thinking about Uncle Wolf's words, there are indeed good mages in this world, and in the past, he had the idea of going to Kama Taj.

Go there and find the Supreme Master.

Later, he dismissed this thought, he was not sure if he would expose his abilities by attracting the attention of the Supreme Mage Ancient One. But now, there is a way for him to get in touch with the wizarding world.

A few minutes later, Peter Parker was overcome by his sleepiness and fell into a deep sleep, with a slight snoring that echoed through the room.

"He's asleep."

Logan cautioned.

"Shh

Rojo's brows furrowed, his eyes concentrating, his eyes focused on Peter's head, and the next second, his eyes became wandering, as if his thoughts had drifted to another world.

"Here we go."

Logan, who was standing next to him, saw that he had entered the state, and did not speak again, but silently stood guard for the two of them.

At this time.

Rojo was completely in the world, and when he opened his eyes, there was a ring in a dilapidated building somewhere, with large posters of various boxers on the walls, messy tables and chairs under the ring, and a spacious building empty.

"This is an underground boxing gym?"

Rojo recognized it at a glance, and thought that it was Peter Parker's dream, and immediately knew the location.

Sure enough, he walked out of the dilapidated ring, walked up, and soon walked through the passage and out of the basement.

Outside, there was an even darker street, and the sun in the sky, its rays, shone the whole earth with a scarlet color, as if it could be extinguished at any moment.

"This is New York?"

Rojo looked around, it was the streets of New York, the surrounding buildings were very familiar, but compared to the real New York, the high-rise buildings here were dilapidated, and they were covered with moss, and the roads that should have been busy with traffic were empty, and the doors and windows of the shops on both sides were closed, lifeless, and there was a trace of smell in the air.

Even if he just entered the spiritual world, Rojo could still empathize, connect with the world that Peter imagined at this time, and feel Peter's feelings at this time.

Whew!

Suddenly, overhead, a figure swept by, dressed in a spider suit, and after a few laps, it landed on the top of the building in the center of the city in a daze.

"Peter?"

Rojo noticed that it was Peter in his dream.

He didn't bother, but weakened his sense of presence and stood aside to observe.

He came to the dream to find out the wizard behind the scenes.

Whew!

Suddenly, in the distance, another figure appeared, it was a black shadow, floating in mid-air.

"That's Uncle Ben?"

Rojo took a few steps closer, and the appearance of the dark shadow became clear, which was the appearance of Uncle Ben in Peter's memory.

It's just that Uncle Ben behaved a little strangely, and after he appeared, Peter in the dream chased after him, but whenever Peter approached, Uncle Ben teleported some distance away.

At the same time, in reality, Peter Parker, who was lying on the bed, also sat up from the bed and got out of bed and walked out.

Seeing this, Logan hurriedly grabbed him, "Where are you going?" ”

Peter didn't reply, and walked forward, and Logan had to hold back, letting the boy stand still.

"That's what the wizard did."

In the dream, Rojo also felt the situation in the real world and hurriedly followed.

He caught up with Peter and put his hand directly on the back of the boy's head, the boy was instantly stunned in place, and Peter in reality also stood still.

"Uncle Ben", who was running in front, also noticed the abnormality, turned his head, looked at Rojo, he spoke, his voice was gloomy and hoarse, "Young man, this is not your dream, what are you here to do?" ”

"It's not your dream either."

Rojo replied coldly, "Who the hell are you, and why are you torturing Peter?" ”

He finally understood why Peter was so afraid, because the boy had dreamed of Uncle Ben, and this dream was full of longing and self-blame and pain for the death of his loved one.

Peter was afraid that his failure would lead to the loss of Aunt May again, which is why he was so scared that he did not even dare to sleep.

"I just smell the fear."

"Uncle Ben" said slowly.

"Fear?"

Luo Huo was stunned for a moment, and then he noticed that in Uncle Ben's body, a black shadow flashed out, the black shadow continued to elongate, three or four meters high, it had no facial features, and could only vaguely see a human form.

"Young man, it's not that this child is trapped by a nightmare, it's that this child is trapped in a nightmare, and it can't escape."

The black shadow sneered.

"Are you a nightmare?"

Rojo remembered that in the Marvel Universe there were all kinds of strange and mysterious creatures, or abstract entities of a concept.

And Nightmare is one of them, no one has ever seen his real face, he is enough to appear in the image that everyone fears the most in the depths of their hearts, because it makes emotions arise in the hearts of people, and he survives by drawing on the power from them.

Rojo had a guess that it would be a nightmare, but he wasn't sure at first, but now that he saw it with his own eyes, it seems that he was right.

"You've finally recognized, young man, and that's it for tonight."

The nightmare turned into a horse, stepping on the sky, running towards the sky.

"Don't run."

Rojo hurriedly chased after him, but the Nightmare was fast, and as he ran, the Nightmare's entity gradually blurred and eventually vanished.

Leaving a faint cloud of black gas drifting away.

"Ran away?"

Rojo came to the dark gas and found that the space in the dream was vibrating, apparently the nightmare had teleported away.

He is no longer in this dimensional space.

At the same time, a nightmare voice sounded in the dream, "Young man, it's okay to come to me if you want to, I'm not sure if you have the ability, but you have to understand one thing, in the rules of witchcraft, those who want to enter the hostile dimension must be prepared to pay with their lives!" ”

"The Nightmare Dimension"

Rojo certainly knew where the Nightmare had gone, a dimension that belonged exclusively to Nightmares, where he was virtually invincible.

Moreover, the one just now should not be the real body of the nightmare, because the body of the nightmare cannot cause substantial damage without the nightmare dimension, and it cannot draw power.

"Young man, if you don't dare to come, don't worry, I will bring you back myself."

The nightmare left with one last word, and then it disappeared completely.

"Whew!"

In reality, Rojo and Peter opened their eyes at about the same time.

"What just happened?"

Peter found himself standing, a little puzzled, because he remembered nothing because of the content of this dream.

"Rojo, what do you see?"

Logan noticed that Rojo's face was a little strange.

"It's a nightmare."

Rojo tells the story of the nightmare in a legendary way.

"Nightmare, it's really a wizard, my firm materialistic beliefs have actually begun to waver"

Peter Parker thought it was incredible.

"Witchcraft is just another science."

Rojo feels that in the Marvel world, the occult is indeed a science, after all, there is a systematic system and principles.

"What are we going to do now, I hear you say that, the nightmare will definitely come again, and we won't find him."

Peter asked, looking worried.

"I think the nightmare appeared in your dream just now, not his dimensional world."

Rojo suddenly remembered an important point.

Nightmares cannot cause substantial damage to anyone when they leave the dimensional world, and in order for him to draw power, or to inflict harm on someone, he must bring the target to the dimensional world of the nightmare while they are asleep.

And just now, they were clearly in Peter's dream world.

This means that, in the real world, someone is helping Nightmare and directing him to Peter's dream.

Nightmares can no longer use magic when they leave their dimension, but his apostle, through some kind of sorcery, can draw power from reality and sacrifice to him.

Rojo suddenly said: "Nightmare can't leave the dimensional world, but he appeared in your dream, obviously New York has his apostle, and the apostle can borrow the power of nightmare through special means and let him come."

If you want to stop the Nightmare from reappearing, all you have to do is find his apostle and seal the Nightmare in his own dimension. ”

"The problem is, we can't find an apostle, that's why we let Peter sleep here."

Logan said.

Rojo smiled slightly and said, "Who said I couldn't find it, I learned something when I was in a dream just now." ”

"What?"

"I can trace the apostle's breath."

At the same time, on the top of an inconspicuous old building somewhere in New York, a gold-colored circular portal suddenly floated, and a woman in a Taoist dress walked out, with the ice and snow behind her and the bustling city skyline in front of her.

She took off her hood, looked at a slightly chubby man beside her, and said, "Wang, I feel that someone is colluding with the demon gods outside the dimension, you can take a few people to take a look." ”

"Yes, Master of the Ancient One."
