“Target?”
Kuang Liu looked at Wen Yu with suspicion, feeling that Wen Yu was behaving oddly today.
“Yes, target!”
“Of course there is. The military’s goal has always been to drive those demonic spawns back to the Demon Realm. That is also my goal!”
Wen Yu nodded and sighed, “Let’s eat first.”
...
Breakfast ended amidst a strange atmosphere, leaving the poor Klaus awkwardly stuck at the table, unsure whether to eat or not, for a long time!
After the meal, Wen Yu took a sip of water and asked Klaus, “By the way, is there a golf course near the Red Stone Grand Hotel?”
It was another question that caught Klaus off guard, causing him to stare blankly for a moment before quickly shaking his head, “There isn’t one nearby, but there’s one a bit further away. However, no one wants to go there because it’s infested with mutated rats.”
Wen Yu nodded, confirming something—while dreams feel real, there are still subtle differences from the real world.
Then, Wen Yu gently tapped the table and asked again, “Have you heard that in this gathering place, there are humans or mutated beings with abilities related to dreams or illusions?”
The crisp tapping sound echoed, reflecting Wen Yu's serious eyes, making Klaus's heart race.
After thinking for a long time, Klaus decisively shook his head, “I haven’t heard of anything like that.”
The steady sound of his heartbeat somewhat proved that Klaus was not lying.
Wen Yu nodded and withdrew his gaze.
It was Kuang Liu who asked, “What’s wrong?”
“I was tampered with. Someone invaded my dream last night, or rather, artificially created a dream for me. The specific reason is unclear; I don’t even know if it was out of goodwill or malice!”
Hearing this, Kuang Liu frowned immediately, “What a strange ability!”
Wen Yu forced a smile and shook his head, “Strangeness isn’t important. What matters more is that this ability is quite powerful. To be honest, I still can’t tell if I’m in a dream right now!”
“So strong?”
Kuang Liu asked incredulously.
Skills ultimately rely on physical fitness to be effective. The stronger the physical fitness, the more potent the skills.
Given Wen Yu's current strength, the ability to pull him into a dream and blur the lines between reality and illusion indicates just how powerful this unknown entity is!
To put it bluntly, if someone could mess with Wen Yu, they could easily mess with Kuang Liu too, making this an issue that extends beyond just Wen Yu.
Kuang Liu understood the necessity of eliminating unknown threats!
Watching Kuang Liu frown in thought, Wen Yu slowly shook his head.
“Don’t think too much. There’s still not a single clue in this matter. I’ve been pondering all morning and came up with nothing. While the saying ‘when soldiers come, block them; when water comes, bury it’ implies a passive approach, I really can’t come up with a solution.”
Kuang Liu nodded, and the three fell into silence.
...
“Right!”
Klaus suddenly stood up and exclaimed loudly.
“I just remembered something that might be related to illusions or dreams.”
Wen Yu raised an eyebrow, signaling Klaus to continue.
“Do you know about the army death incident in the city of sin?”
Seeing the mysterious look on Klaus's face, Wen Yu recalled Old Sam’s introduction to the military in the city of sin.
“What happened?”
Klaus had successfully piqued Wen Yu's interest.
“The military died in the camp. Such a big event, I had to see it for myself.”
“Some of them died from external injuries, but the vast majority died from severe mental shock, their heads literally exploding!”
“I don’t know if they died in a dream or an illusion. When you asked me earlier, I didn’t think of this aspect. After all, we all believed they died from mental attacks, but now that I think about it, killing in dreams should also count as a form of mental attack…”
Klaus’s voice grew softer until he felt embarrassed at the end.
