Ke Meng, who was in R’lyeh, sensed countless dream bubbles far away as soon as he opened his eyes.
There were more dreams compared to two days ago. The quantity was on a different level now.
He had no idea how many people from Orange Planet were having the nightmare now. He wondered whether they had found out about his existence.
If the game official noticed that, would they delete the Ultimate Boss off the game?
That was an issue.
However, there was nothing that Ke Meng could do even if he realized the issue. After all, he was just a game character. Naturally, the game official might not delete him. The chances were 50/50.
He focused on sensing the gamers’ dreams, no longer dwelling on what the game official would do. He would cross the bridge when he got to it. Even if the Boss’ character was deleted, the most that would happen would be him returning to his normal life.
Soon, Ke Meng sensed a player’s dream.
It was the same old dream with the vast land on the ocean. 2,000,000 to 3,000,000 people were living there, while over 10,000 people were living in the big whale’s stomach beneath.
Up to 10,000,000 people on the Orange Planet were infected, but not everyone was sleeping at the same time. Therefore, the combined number of people dreaming would not break through 10,000,000.
However, as the condition’s way of spreading had been announced officially, the people who dared not sleep for two days and two nights finally slept.
The players that were entering the integrated dream were rising during the time Ke Meng was online.
Most of them were new players who had dared not sleep for two days and two nights. The first reaction they had as soon as they entered the dream was being dumbstruck. They then panicked a little.
However, the new players would not be drowned by the ocean water. It took away the torture of death.
A while later, the new players no longer felt the fear they were feeling in the beginning and adapted to the life in the dream instantly.
“Don’t panic, we’ll wake up and return to reality after a period of time.
“I supposed everyone is set to be woken up in half an hour? You’ll wake up half an hour later. Don’t run around, we’re safe in the dream.”
The officials from Orange Planet were among the crowd, telling the people not to panic.
Benefited from Boss Ke’s modification, there was no longer the risk of drowning in the nightmare now. The Orange Planet people could finally live peacefully.
The high-level players that were passionate about the game could not sit still. They formed exploration teams and adventured into the wilderness in order to complete the great map of the dream world.
Ke Meng secretly observed the changes in the nightmare world. He found out many players were out exploring.
However, he noticed the high-level players showing disappointment on their faces when they encountered wild animals that were hardly aggressive and posed no threat on the map.
The animals were too weak, and there was no challenge to the players?
High-level players were the gods of a VR game. They loved walking on a tightrope and challenging how far they could go. They were more courageous than most people.
The bodily sensation in the dream world was extremely close to reality. Ke Meng even saw a player that was seeking death, testing the revival point. He thought he would experience how death would feel like.
As expected, Ke Meng saw the player turn pale when he was revived. He was trembling while he lay on the ground.
Ke Meng was speechless. He ignored the death-seeking people and began thinking about how to build an interesting dream world.
His wisdom was limited to be building a dream on his own. It was difficult to build an interesting dream world.
The best way would be crowdfunding, getting all players to build the dream.
Ke Meng had an idea of how to realize the idea.
In the next second, Boss Ke began invading the integrated dreamland.
A giant, indescribable gray mist appeared above the integrated dream instantly. There seemed to be a gravely terrifying entity passing by in the mist.
The players living on the land felt a tremor in their souls that came out of nowhere.
What kind of fear was that?
Terror, madness, destruction, chaos. Many emotions were growing inside of them, messing them up inside.
Most players were timid and dared not lift their heads to look into the sky.
Their intuition told them that not looking up was the correct choice.
However, it did not stop some ballsy high-level players from resisting the fear coming from their bodies with their strong determination. They lifted their heads slowly to look into the sky.
Player ‘Cleric Players have A Filthy Heart’ lifted his head. He, who was in a cleric robe, felt his head trembling at the moment while he had goosebumps all over his body. He felt chilly in his crotch. He knelt at the indescribable cloud of mist in the sky directly.
His eyes stared wide, and his lips were quivering. Within a blink of an eye, he slammed his head onto the ground. He had a cut on his head.
Due to the jolted move, he dared not stare directly at the indescribable cloud of mist any longer to prevent his mind from being contaminated further.
“Ahhh…
‘I see it, I see it!
‘The almighty existence!”
The Cleric held his head with both hands, as veins were bulging on his forehead. Some terrifying images were popping into his head.
It was a pitch-black ocean world. Giant stone pillars were hiding in the dark.
Although he could not see how the stone pillars looked like, he could sense there were petrifying and indescribably things carved on them.
Perhaps those things were the terrifying existence that was passing by above their heads.
The Cleric’s head hurt so bad that it felt like it was exploding. He shut his eyes and bit his lip so hard that it was bleeding.
It was as if the pain would bring his sanity back and reduce his chaotic thoughts.
The surrounding players saw him, and they dared not look up to the sky even more now.
The Cleric was screaming like a madman. He was chanting, ‘I see it, I see it’. However, no players around him knew what exactly he was seeing.
They were trembling.
As expected, this world was not as harmonious as what the Orange Planet officials claimed.
A while later, Ke Meng, who was above the sky, faded quietly.
A total of 260,000 bold players had lifted their heads to look up to the sky when he was there. All of them had experienced the most intense suppression of fear they had ever felt in their life. There was no exception.
Some saw the bottom of the sea in R’lyeh. However, the information that was obtained was too scattered. They did not receive all of the content. All they saw was a deep ocean with no lights.
Some heard messy and incomprehensible noise. Each pronunciation was not the standard pronunciation of the Orange Planet people. It sounded like the hymns at church when the pronunciations were combined. However, it sounded extremely evil and chaotic. It would drive one crazy if listened to repeatedly.
Meanwhile, some people felt gravely terrible in their mouths, ears, and nostrils. There seemed to be something slimy drilling them countless times. It was terribly disgusting.
At that moment, the nightmare condition’s risk level had increased a few levels for the Orange Planet citizens.
