After crushing George, the Pig-headed Nightmare continued to chase down the remaining three.
Lanya frantically dragged Lisa along. Fesia seed to have so kind of Acceleration Spell, as she was running quite fast.
However, before the Tier Two Nightmare, all three of them were still far too weak.
In the blink of an eye, the Tier Two Nightmare caught up to them again.
The massive Chain Hamr ca crashing down, its shadow looming over the three of them.
Lanya quickly shoved Lisa aside and leaped in the other direction.
Fesia’s face was a mask of pure terror.
THUD!
A burst of blue light erupted from Fesia, blocking the Tier Two Nightmare’s attack.
Li Wei was a little surprised; he hadn’t expected Fesia to possess Defense Magic Items.
’It seems Fesia really does have so powerful backing.’
Defense Magic Items weren’t cheap. Li Wei himself hadn’t been able to afford one.
The cheapest single-use Defense Magic Items cost at least fifty or sixty Gold Coins.
Fesia frantically pulled out a Scroll and tore it open.
A violent fluctuation of the Wind Elent erupted. Instantly, dozens of cyan Wind Blades shot out from in front of Fesia.
Li Wei’s eyes narrowed. ’That’s Tier Two Wind Magic! A Magic Scroll?’
’She’s so rich!’ Li Wei sighed to himself.
Tier Two Magic Scrolls were inscribed with Tier Two Spells and were incredibly valuable.
Crucially, Magic Scrolls were single-use items, so very few people were willing to spend money on them.
Fesia really was one rich woman.
’Unfortunately, it’s an area-of-effect spell.’
The Wind Blades engulfed the Pig-headed Nightmare’s figure. Fesia’s eyes widened with anticipation.
When the Magic Radiance faded, the Pig-headed Nightmare appeared before her, covered in wounds.
Though its wounds were nurous, a Nightmare could simply ignore them.
Within a few breaths, the Pig-headed Nightmare’s injuries healed completely.
Despair washed over Fesia’s face.
SMASH!
Fesia was smashed into a bloody pulp, gore splattering everywhere.
This ti, she had no more tricks up her sleeve.
The Pig-headed Nightmare absorbed the Power of Nightmare generated from Fesia’s death, its expression turning to one of delight.
It strode toward the fleeing Lanya and Lisa.
WHOOSH!
A Fireball half a ter in diater shot out from the side, striking the unsuspecting Pig-headed Nightmare.
KABOOM!
The Pig-headed Nightmare was blown off its feet. Half its shoulder was blasted away, disintegrating into a gray mist.
FSSSHHH!
With an audible hiss, the dispersed gray mist rapidly reconverged to reform the pig-head’s body.
In the blink of an eye, the pig-head had healed most of its injuries.
Li Wei’s expression grew grave.
’A Tier Two Nightmare is certainly not to be underestimated.’
’This regeneration speed far surpasses that of a Tier One Nightmare.’
WHOOSH!
Another Fireball shot toward the Pig-headed Nightmare, and the Nightmare swung its Chain Hamr to et it.
With a trendous bang, the Chain Hamr was blown to bits, and the Pig-headed Nightmare’s arm was shattered.
The gray mist exploded outward, but in the next instant, its expansion halted and it began to rapidly recede, as if ti were flowing in reverse.
Just then, a volley of smaller Fireballs flew toward it, one after another without pause.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Under the constant bombardnt of the Chain Fireball Technique, the Pig-headed Nightmare was steadily forced back.
Its body constantly shattered under the barrage.
Pinned down, the Nightmare was temporarily unable to heal its injuries.
"ROAR!"
The Nightmare let out a sky-shaking roar and revealed its true form.
Gray mist billowed out as scorching flas erupted from within its body, sending sparks flying in all directions.
It resembled an Evil Ghost that had crawled out of the Burning Hell.
The Nightmare devoured the Fireballs and surged toward Li Wei. Its body, dyed red by the flas, grew brighter and brighter.
"AWOOOO!"
After absorbing a huge number of Fireballs, the Nightmare’s body swelled dramatically, transforming into a red mass of mist five to six ters in diater.
With a deafening roar, BANG!
The Nightmare exploded, sending a red mushroom cloud rising into the sky.
Li Wei threw up an arm to shield his eyes from the blinding light.
A scorching heatwave swept through the street, sending rubble and wooden planks flying.
Only when the heatwave subsided could Li Wei clearly see his surroundings.
The Nightmare had exploded in mid-air while charging toward him.
The terrifying force of the explosion had flattened the surrounding houses, leaving a crater six to seven ters in diater in the ground.
The Nightmare had devoured twenty-one small Fireballs before it burst. The force of the explosion was even more terrifying than a charged Fireball Skill.
Killing the Tier Two Nightmare had drained most of Li Wei’s Mana.
The Nightmare Core fell from mid-air. It was severely damaged and unable to recover for a short while.
Li Wei was about to destroy the Nightmare Core, but upon seeing this, he hesitated for a mont and retracted his Mana.
He picked up the Nightmare Core floating in the center of the large crater.
The Nightmare Core was a polygonal Crystal whose colors were constantly shifting, like a dream-like Crystal.
This was the first ti he had obtained an intact Nightmare Core.
After obtaining the Great Dream Traveling Skill, Li Wei had learned a great deal about Nightmares, the dream world, and the Yubis Church.
In the real world, Nightmare Cores were considered a relatively rare and uncommon Magic Material.
They could be used for many things, such as summoning Nightmares, casting Illusion Techniques, setting up Illusionary Arrays, and creating Magic Items.
Li Wei had read about a special thod for using a Nightmare Core in a book.
By nurturing a Nightmare Core with Spiritual Power, one could raise a loyal Nightmare Servant.
After a mont of thought, he returned to his room.
Sitting in his room, he cupped the dreamlike Nightmare Core in his hands and slowly infused his Spiritual Power into it.
A mont later, the severely damaged Nightmare Core beca active.
The gray mist, which had disappeared after his Basic ditation thod reached the Perfection Level, reappeared in the room.
Wisps of gray mist erged and were devoured by the Nightmare Core.
A suction force emanated from within the Nightmare Core, actively drawing upon Li Wei’s Spiritual Power.
The pace grew faster and faster.
Li Wei felt sothing was wrong.
’This isn’t nurturing the Nightmare Core anymore; it’s devouring my Spiritual Power!’
’Damn it! This Tier Two Nightmare Core is too powerful!’
Without hesitation, Li Wei severed his own Spiritual Power.
"Hmph!"
A wave of pain from severing his own Spiritual Power washed over him, and he let out a muffled grunt.
Forcing his eyes open, he watched as the Nightmare Core before him underwent a drastic change.
After absorbing his Spiritual Power, the gray mist gradually took on a humanoid shape that bore a slight resemblance to Li Wei.
’So this is a Nightmare Servant?’
Li Wei studied the humanoid gray mist before him.
He could vaguely sense the Spiritual Power that the Nightmare Core had devoured.
But because his Spiritual Power was too weak compared to the Tier Two Nightmare Core, he couldn’t control the Nightmare Servant before him.
Li Wei could feel the Nightmare Core consuming his captured Spiritual Power.
If the Nightmare Core completely devoured his Spiritual Power, Li Wei would lose control, and the Nightmare Core would revert back into a Nightmare.
Seeing this, Li Wei acted without hesitation, striking to disperse the humanoid gray mist.
BOOM!
A Fireball struck the humanoid gray mist, blasting it to pieces and revealing the Nightmare Core within.
He seized the Nightmare Core. Without the gray mist, the Nightmare Core’s Power dropped rapidly, and it beca dormant again.
’Controlling a Tier Two Nightmare Servant with my current Spiritual Power is too much of a strain. Rather than keep such a potential threat, it’s better to destroy it!’
’Nightmare Cores are rare in the real world, but they’re everywhere in dreams, so it’s no great loss.’
’The only sha is that there’s no way to take the Nightmare Core out of the dream.’
Li Wei cast his Fireball Skill, destroying the Nightmare Core.
A stream of light flew into his body. The proficiency of his Great Dream Traveling Skill increased by seven hundred points.
