Million frowned slightly: "Let’s get to the main task first, solving the Forbidden Nightmare is urgent."
Lulu nodded.
The Holy Daughter looked sowhat hesitantly towards Million and the group: "Can you really kill the Forbidden Nightmare?"
Million nodded: "Don’t worry, we can."
Without that stone at the top of the tower, the Forbidden Nightmare can’t absorb the moonlight spiritual energy.
She had looked up the data; the Forbidden Nightmare must absorb moonlight spiritual energy at night to have the power to cause trouble.
With that stone gone, the Forbidden Nightmare is rendered useless.
The Holy Daughter nodded and lifted the seal on the tower gate.
Instantly, the world changed color, dark clouds gathered, and a chilling atmosphere enveloped the entire mountaintop.
The wind even faintly carried snowflakes.
"Ah..."
A hoarse voice creaked out like a broken bellows, resembling so kind of desolate sigh.
Old Mrs. Cao looked incredulously towards the direction of the tower, and Yue Xi clenched his sleeves, showing a tense expression on his face.
"Kill the Forbidden Nightmare!"
Soone in the crowd shouted, quickly followed by others, their expressions excited, continuously cheering, their faces gradually becoming twisted and crazy at the thought of killing.
The tower gate slowly creaked open, the sound particularly clear and even abrupt amid the shouts.
The crowd fell silent, their eyes fixed on the tower gate.
Josh and Yuze also looked towards the tower gate.
Behind the opened tower gate was endless darkness, hiding another world inside, with almost no light able to penetrate.
The darkness behind the door seed like a lurking giant beast, ready to swallow anything stepping inside.
The villagers were so frightened by this sight that none dared to be the first to shout and step forward.
Million and Lulu exchanged a glance, also sowhat hesitant.
At this mont, a movent suddenly ca from inside the door.
A fuzzy, hairy black thing wriggled out, like a worm as thick as a person’s arm.
The crowd was shocked and stepped back continuously.
Lulu was startled, then hid fearfully behind Million: "What the hell is that?"
Old Mrs. Cao suddenly sobbed, her eyes reddened, and wanted to rush over but was stopped by a woman beside the Holy Daughter.
Josh and Yuze exchanged a look.
Yuze nodded subtly, then suddenly stepped forward: "Didn’t you say you wanted to kill the Forbidden Nightmare? What? Afraid now?"
Seeing him step forward, Million beca instantly alert, quickly drawing her weapon and stepping forward.
She feared that if she let her guard down for a mont, Yuze would suddenly dash forward and stab the Forbidden Nightmare, taking the first-kill title of this instance for themselves.
Fortunately, Yuze showed no intention of acting, rely standing in front of that mass of darkness: "Before that, I have a few doubts I hope you all can help with."
The Holy Daughter frowned slightly, glancing at the Priest.
The Priest hurriedly said: "Aren’t you here to find the murderer? The murderer is right here, why haven’t you acted yet?"
Yuze smiled slightly, but his gaze at the Priest carried a hint of coldness: "What? You very much want us to act?"
"The Forbidden Nightmare killed many people in our village, of course, we want to kill it!" the Priest hurriedly said.
Yuze spread his hands: "Just because you say it’s the murderer, does it automatically beco the murderer? Where’s the evidence?"
The Holy Daughter stepped forward: "You want evidence, right? Fine, I’ll give you evidence."
She looked at the crowd, "Regarding the rumors about the Forbidden Nightmare, I believe everyone has heard them. Every ti the Forbidden Nightmare curses soone to death, another rune scar appears on its face. The more it kills, the more runes it has."
The crowd nodded in agreent.
The legend of the Forbidden Nightmare isn’t a secret in their village. To find out if it’s the killer, just brush aside the hair on its face.
The Forbidden Nightmare had already struggled out of the tower completely.
The crowd then saw the person clearly.
Its head was covered with tangled long hair, as if it hadn’t been washed in decades, disheveled and dirty, even with visible small bugs lurking inside.
Its limbs seed cut off, leaving only a torso crawling awkwardly.
Hadn’t soone made it into a hobbling man?
The crowd stepped back in horror.
The Forbidden Nightmare shakily raised its head. Underneath the ssy hair, a face covered in runes could be vaguely seen.
The eyes had two large holes, the scars hideous, as if the eyeballs had been violently gouged out, leaving only ghastly scars and sunken eye sockets.
"What are you waiting for! The Forbidden Nightmare is out! Kill it!" the Priest shouted sharply.
Hearing his voice, the Forbidden Nightmare’s face turned ugly: "Ah!!!"
Its voice was hoarse. Upon opening its mouth, countless chains ford of black ghost energy surged towards the Priest.
The Priest’s face turned pale, hurriedly retreating.
Seeing this, Million and the others erupted, sending forth their Spiritual Bodies.
Everyone suddenly seed to have their feet grabbed, forcibly dragged back, forced to retreat.
Josh lowered her hands, smiling as she stood in front: "What’s the hurry when nothing’s clear yet? Why get so worked up?"
The five people who rushed ahead were pulled back by her spider silk.
She used Yuze to attract everyone’s attention up front, while she moved around silently weaving webs.
Once the web was complete, everything would be easier.
The Holy Daughter frowned slightly, disapprovingly watching her: "You are my chosen candidate saintess. How can you stand on the Forbidden Nightmare’s side? Co over here."
Josh smiled: "I think you’ve said this a lot to those Sacrificial Girls, haven’t you?"
The Holy Daughter looked at her in confusion: "What do you an by that?"
Josh asserted: "Because once you appoint a candidate saintess, the curse the Forbidden Nightmare placed on you can be transferred to the candidate saintess. Every night the Forbidden Nightmare curses you, you use the candidate saintess as a scapegoat to block the curse for you."
The Holy Daughter’s eyes flickered slightly: "I don’t know what you’re talking about."
Josh looked at her: "When you selected as the candidate saintess, you told to believe that I was truly your candidate saintess, regardless of what others said. You did this to prevent from uncovering this, didn’t you? Preparing beforehand."
The Holy Daughter looked sowhat saddened: "How can you misunderstand like this? Selecting a candidate saintess is a very serious matter. How could I use this to guide the Forbidden Nightmare to kill? Wouldn’t that make an accomplice? What benefit would I gain from that?"
Josh: "I’d also like to know, why are you doing this? Why not, let’s ask the Forbidden Nightmare?"
The Holy Daughter looked at her with an expression that seed to be watching a child throwing a tantrum: "How could you... sigh..."
The Priest glared at her displeased: "Insolence! You’re rely a candidate saintess, without gratitude, and dare to question the Holy Daughter?!"
He suddenly seed to think of sothing: "Ah! You’re with Old Mrs. Cao and the Forbidden Nightmare, aren’t you? I saw you getting close before!"
"Yeah, how can a candidate saintess stand up to the Holy Daughter like this?"
"There’s sothing wrong, maybe she’s indeed an accomplice of the Forbidden Nightmare!"
"Kill her too!"
"Yes! Those who help the Forbidden Nightmare are no good!"
