Chapter 1454: Chapter 1452 Artificial Core of Existence (22)

Indeed, as mentioned earlier, it is full of vigor.

The ancient maxim of respecting the elders and venerating the wise has its reasons.

In an instant, Fu Qian, who had returned from the Blood Conquest, sighed sincerely.

The process of a series of changes earlier was quite simple. First, I activated the Clear Dream Ring, causing everyone to fall into it.

Although the three Night Watchmen were completely unaware, in their panicked state, they mistakenly thought I was about to attack the old lady and preemptively launched an assault.

The attack naturally couldn’t hit, as I had already escaped from the dream before it took effect.

And suddenly losing the trace of the villain, the three Night Watchmen turned to rescue the hostage.

However, facing the magical scene before them, and being stimulated repeatedly, the misplaced old lady underwent the same change as I did, emerging from the dream back to reality.

Ultimately, the rescue operation for the hostage also failed.

As for why the old lady was able to easily rid herself of the Clear Dream Ring, the answer is already apparent—like the old man before her, she is also a victim of pollution.

She even went a step further than the former one, choosing a more direct approach to attack me after the misleading failed.

Illusory, coarse, and even seeming to have large chunks of ash dancing within it.

But still discernible as a hideous giant claw, which flashed across the old lady’s arm.

The target I’ve been pursuing all along finally revealed its Transcendent side.

And this isn’t even the most magical part—the old lady left the Clear Dream Ring, but she did not wake up.

After delivering that eerie strike, her eyes were nearly unfocused, devoid of the previous sharpness.

...

Strictly speaking, it’s somewhat like sleepwalking.

Fu Qian almost instantly made an evaluation.

Despite the strong purpose in her actions, the old lady was clearly not conscious.

Through those eyes, it even seemed possible to feel a certain special, inhuman gaze.

It wasn’t that the old lady exposed hidden powers, but rather something leveraged through the realm of dreams, channeling power through her.

This didn’t contradict my previous judgment, the old lady herself is indeed an ordinary person.

Another piece of good news is that this level of contact hasn’t polluted me.

It seems only Lek possesses such exaggerated polluting power.

”Hi! What should I call you?”

As he methodically analyzed the changes before him, Fu Qian didn’t forget to politely greet.

”Sin Lord? Plague Dragon?”

The reason for the latter term is simple; structurally and proportionally, that giant claw just now leans towards a reptile.

Roar——

Unfortunately, even such polite and careful words still failed to stir the mysterious entity controlling the dream.

With Fu Qian’s greeting, a violent roar erupted, a phantom hideous head biting at the spot where he originally stood.

Fortunately, Fu Qian had rich experience in dealing with rude encounters and had already dodged immediately.

This unanticipated assault still failed.

...

It really does resemble a dragon somewhat.

Though it was just a fleeting glimpse, with Fu Qian’s keen eye, he was able to capture plenty of information.

A giant mouth, sharp teeth, even the eyes that seemed like void holes in the darkness, all were quite akin to the bite of a mindless behemoth.

He never believed it would actually tear his flesh, but given the nature of this mission, Fu Qian had no interest in getting bitten to test the outcomes.

No worries, as the saying goes, God helps those who help themselves.

”What is special about Lek Wesley to you?”

Maintaining a strong sense of curiosity, the next moment Fu Qian snapped his fingers again, ending the Clear Dream Ring.

Not far away, the three Night Watchmen’s immobilized bodies shuddered collectively, their trapped consciousnesses fully returned.

And instantly noticing the reappearance of the two vanished figures, even amidst their confusion, the trio still demonstrated impressive teamwork.

The Thunder Fist Dagger once more rushed towards Fu Qian, while the others had already leapt beside the stray old lady, trying to lead her away from danger again.

But the latter, having twice failed at attacking Fu Qian, was also decisive in her reaction.

Saying not a word, the dark phantom giant claw lifted with her right hand, targeting this rescue operative.

Simultaneously, Fu Qian could feel the other party ”glancing” at him.

”What... this one also has issues!”

The person originally perceived as fragile as paper, suddenly revealing a ferocious side, brought a considerable shock.

Even deeply shaken, the concerned person still fulfilled his duty, immediately shouting to alert his teammates.

This...

And the two whose attacks once again missed, looked at the giant claw and Fu Qian who appeared beside it, their expressions complex to the extreme, unable to decide whom to target first.

Of course, in reality, no one cared about their choice.

”Do you know why I’m here?”

Walking a certain distance, Fu Qian stopped without moving further, looking at the giant claw that had yet to descend, asking casually.

”And are you aware of your fate, correct?”

With the chilling questions, an even colder aura emanated from him.

Almost immediately, the three Night Watchmen felt their thoughts slow down.

Yet still, they couldn’t help but focus their gazes on the radiant, transparent brilliance enveloping him, drawn to that dazzling scene.

...

Fu Qian received no answer.

Specifically, the sleepwalking old lady didn’t even glance this way.

Towards such rude behavior, he sighed softly, but he could also understand.

The other party was indeed waiting for his reaction, but not in this regard.

The giant claw that never descended wasn’t due to a sudden mercy towards the Night Watchmen who attempted to rescue him twice.

But realizing it was entirely unable to harm him, it hoped he would show mercy.

Facing the soon-to-be-affected Night Watchman, revealing a weakness worth exploiting.

Unfortunately, it didn’t know that achieving the latter might be even harder than the former.

Even though his stance had clearly shown this, it still refused to give up the possibility of bluffing.

Proving this was the next moment when the hideous giant claw directly fell, crossing over the safety distance kept by its locked target, sweeping past his chest.

It chose to gamble, and lost.

Throughout, Fu Qian, who stood his ground, had only one reaction—carefully observing and recording the changes in the attacked person.

As mentioned earlier, though due to the necessity of completing the mission, he couldn’t test the effect of getting hit himself.

But with determination, curiosity can allow anyone to find the answers provided by the opponent.

Indeed, it was a non-corporeal attack; the person who got hit stood immobile for a moment, but clearly, there was no flesh or blood splattered.

Quickly, he arrived at a tacit conclusion.

It was a more elegant form of conceptual damage.
