"Liar?" Qi Leren was a little confused. For a moment, he thought about a lot of things that the court might teach him, but he never expected that what Miao Li said was a lie.
Miao Li's smile was subtle: "What? Do you think it's incredible?"
"No, I'm just... a little surprised." Qi Leren said.
Miao Li rubbed the ring on her finger and said lightly, "Trust me, you can use it in many places, many, many places..."
In the depths of the dream universe, a comet flew from the sky, and its dazzling tail was like a long feather, dragging a wonderful arc of light across the land of stars, like some ancient omens, or maybe, This is precisely the symptom of the beginning of a new phase.

Qi Le people woke up.
It was still sunset outside the window, filling the whole room. He slowly got up from the bed and glanced at the survival time of 54 days and 15 hours. He slept for a full eight hours, and it is reasonable to say that he should be full of energy.
But things were not like that at all. He was like a poor man tortured by nightmares all night, and his brain was heavy when he woke up.
It seems that although the method of learning in dreams can save time, it is still very energy-intensive, and there is no way for people to have a good rest, but... It is still valuable.
Qi Leren rubbed his throbbing temple, got up and washed his face with cold water.
When the knock on the door came, Qi Leren hurriedly wiped his face and opened the door.
Doctor Lu stood outside the door and said excitedly when he saw him: "I saw a very good two-person quest in the quest office. It is only for newcomers who have entered the nightmare world within a month. The task difficulty rating is D, and the minimum reward is also 20 days to survive! Do you want to pick it up?"
"The minimum reward for a task with a difficulty rating of D is 20 days?" Qi Leren asked strangely, "This is not reasonable."
"It should be a novice discount. It is said that it is only for newcomers. Last time, I was tricked by a few deceitful customers to do a task of B-level difficulty. Most of the team died! The task reward is only 20 days. But it's also because I've only completed the minimum quests and didn't trigger any hidden plots or sidelines, so I don't want to take the B-level difficulty after killing me," Dr. Lu said with lingering fears.
Qi Leren thought for a while, then nodded and said, "Well, it's good to save more days to survive while you are a newcomer."
"That is to say, I still want to save more days to survive and exchange some useful skills. It would be great if I could directly strengthen the data like an infinite stream novel. It's too hard to exercise by myself, and it's not at all for the crispy nurse. Friendly." Doctor Lu looked dead.
Qi Leren twitched the corners of his mouth: "What's the mission profile like?"
"The name of the quest is 'Castle Horror', the introduction is not very detailed, it is probably a quest to kill a group of NPCs to explore the ancient castle at night. It is a dungeon quest, and it needs to be sent to the dungeon. If you agree, we will go now. Just pick it up, it will be opened in a few days." Dr. Lu was in a hurry, for fear that the task would be cancelled.
"Well, wait for me to put on some clothes." Qi Leren went back and put on a coat and followed Dr. Lu to the mission station.
No matter what time of day people come and go in the mission office, Dr. Lu took Qi Leren to the castle's horror mission. After the two signed it, the mission disappeared from the display board.
The dungeon quests in Nightmare World are almost never repeated, even if the type is similar, the content is very different, otherwise players can find players who have done the same quest according to the existing prompts to obtain intelligence rewards, but it does not rule out the same world view. The quests below are linked to some extent.
However, the tasks in the main world of Nightmare World may be repeated. For example, Qi Leren's last task "Sacrificing the Witch" is a typical reincarnation task. It starts every three years, and the content process is almost the same in many cases. In this case Information is very important.
"The mission is required to be started within a week. Let's prepare first, and then find a good date to start the mission." Dr. Lu said earnestly.
"... Feudal superstition is bad." Qi Leren was speechless.
"Just beg for peace of mind." Dr. Lu was very sincere, and forced a cute wink.
"Whatever you want..." Qi Leren was helpless, can such a cowardly teammate be okay... This is simply the rhythm of the boss asking him to duel.
While talking, the two walked out of the mission station, and were suddenly stopped by someone.
"It's you!"
Qi Leren turned his head, and a tall and thin man pointed at Qi Leren: "It's really you, I saw you being taken away by the trial last time I got off the spacecraft, and now you're released?"
Dr. Lu poked Qi Leren's waist with his elbow and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong with you?"
"That's a long story..." Qi Leren hadn't had time to mention the Seed of Slaughter to Dr. Lu. Although he wouldn't tell the story of his parasitism, and he wouldn't reveal the transaction with the Tribunal, but in the You can still talk to Dr. Lu about the matter on the spacecraft.
The passers-by around heard the three words of the trial and looked at them intentionally or unintentionally. The feeling of being stared at made Qi Leren frown uncomfortably. The man who came out said, "I just made a record, so I should do it bravely."
The tall and thin man gave him a dark look, nodded at him, and walked into the mission.
What a strange person, Qi Leren murmured in his heart, and walked out of the mission station one after another with Dr. Lu.
"What happened before?" Dr. Lu asked curiously.
"Half a day ago, I took a spaceship from Sunset Island to the land part of Duskland. On the spaceship..."
Qi Leren brought the events on the spacecraft one by one, from the slaughter seed parasite wearing a cloak, to the poor passenger who died innocently, he calmly described this tragedy, which he participated in together with himself, to the trial court's He used Miao Li's teaching content in his current study, and added some secrets about the Seed of Slaughter. Soon Dr. Lu was attracted by the secrets. He listened attentively and believed his words. .
Although it was a bit unnerving to lie to a friend, he always had to get used to it. He kept telling lies until he even believed his own lies.
"Your luck is really bad. This kind of thing happened twice in the spaceship. Wow, I won't be in the spaceship with you in the future. You have a Conan physique." Dr. Lu winked his eyes exaggeratedly. Amused Qi Leren who was in a heavy heart.
"Okay, in the future I will take a spaceship and you will swim to see who gets to the destination first." Qi Leren said jokingly.
Dr. Lu had a dead look on his face: "Anyway, it's all death, so I'd better take the spaceship."
The two talked as they walked, walking through the busy downtown area, and all the way to the secluded alleys.
"Last time, there was a murder case between NPCs here, and the mission of sacrificing witches was triggered here." Qi Leren said with emotion. He looked at the NPC's corpse out of curiosity, and as a result, he triggered the quest, and then... met Ning Zhou who also triggered the quest but didn't know each other.
There are so many coincidences in life, which eventually connect into something called destiny.
"It's too unlucky, let's walk." Dr. Lu rubbed his arms, feeling hairy, and hurriedly walked over with Qi Leren's sleeves.
"Don't make a fuss, I think it's a little weird." Qi Leren murmured and touched the belt subconsciously.
Faintly, he felt that there was something disturbing lurking in this evening...
Qi Leren paused, and Dr. Lu also stopped and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
"I remember something, so I won't go to your place. I'll come back to you tomorrow." Qi Leren said calmly.
Dr. Lu sighed: "That's fine, the task is not urgent, we can discuss it tomorrow, then I'll go first."
Qi Leren nodded, and seeing Dr. Lu disappear from the alley, he took a step forward, leaning against the mossy wall of the alley, and said to the empty alley, "Come out."
The place shrouded in the afterglow of the setting sun was silent, only the breeze was blowing the vines that covered the walls, bringing a soft rustling sound, as if telling Qi Leren that everything was just his illusion.
"You've been following me for so long since just now, do you really think I didn't find out?" Qi Leren played with the dagger, and said in a cool and firm tone, probably only he himself knew, at this moment he was actually not sure at all.
There was a loud bang, and the wall behind him suddenly exploded, and the force of the impact knocked Qi Leren flying out, slammed him to the ground, and rolled on the ground for a few laps before stopping. There was a sharp pain in the internal organs, and the shock almost made people think that the internal organs were about to shatter.
Dizzy, Qi Leren heard a mocking voice: "Acting is good, but next time you want to cheat, remember to point your face at the place where others are hiding."
The arm was pressed behind the back, and the icy blade was pressed against the back of the neck, and the blade still exuded a chill through a thin layer of cloth.
"Now, take out all your skill cards, starting with the ones on your belt," the man said greedily.
