Chapter 869 Nightmare Realm

Nightmare Realm.

Souta floated and went to the huge floating land. The land had immense size and it was comparable to the size of a country. Approximately had a diameter of three hundred thousand kilometers.

"I think I could do it..."

He opened and closed his palm. He didn't have any preparation at all. What he was wearing right now was ordinary equipment. All of his high-grade artifacts were in his real body. The only thing he had was the [Nightmare Mask].

If he died in this place, he would die in real life.

"Nightmare King probably failed the test but he still survive..."

Souta landed on the land. It was desolate but he knew that this place was dangerous. There were living creatures here and some of them were very aggressive.

[You've entered the Nightmare Realm!]

[Quest Triggered!]

[Dream beast]: Kill fifty monsters that are living in the Nightmare Realm.

Rewards: 10,000,000 experience points, 15 free attribute points, and 10 skill points

[Find]: This piece of land is called Heizz. Find the core of this land within an hour.

Rewards: 50,000,000 experience points, 20 free attribute points, and 10 skill points

This... This is the test...

It was still the same... Souta was glad that he knew the contents of this test or else he would have a hard time. Killing fifty monsters was easy but finding the core of this land which has a diameter of hundreds of thousands of kilometers was hard.

He had to investigate. Luckily, this time he already knew the location of the core.

"Well, it's not bad. I will have an access to the Nightmare Realm from now on."

Souta walked forward. In front of him, there were valleys, caves, and towering mountains. There were even floating lands just the size of a small island. The largest floating island approximately has a diameter of twenty kilometers.

What he needed to do now was to kill dream beast...

It's a monster living in this dream realm. They were strangely powerful in this land but Souta think that he could handle them with his current strength.

Aside from the dream beast, there were folks living in this realm too. They were called Hullscan. Each one of them possessed the power of dream realm to a certain extent.

"For now, I need to know my current location..."

Souta muttered to himself.

He moved at high speed as he explored this part of the land. Soon, he found some monsters in front of the floating land. Souta swiftly eliminated them. They were all third stage monsters.

They were a little bit stronger than ordinary third stage monsters but in the end, they were not a match for a top tier fourth stage like him.

There were seven of them so he just needed to kill forty-three more.

Back in Planet Plunyx...

Heimer, Baldur, and Princess Dreimi have grave expressions.

Space cracks appeared all of a sudden and intense energy gushed out of it like a flood. The whole area was shaking and the atmosphere felt like it was boiling.

The sea kept moving, creating giant waves of water that washed away the shore.

They didn't have any idea about what was happening at all. They were stunned and rooted on the spot as they looked at the scene in front of them.

"What is this...?!"

"The space... cracked...?!"

This was their first time seeing a space cracked. From their point of view, space was something that couldn't break. Shattering a space was even harder than destroying a continent.

Even Eilish, who was at the bottom of the sea was bothered. She could feel the intense fluctuations of Souta's energy through the space cracks.

"What happened to you... Souta?"

She narrowed her eyes. Since the energy was coming from the space cracks, it means that Souta wasn't at this sea anymore.

Eilish took a deep breath before she went toward the space gap to find out the truth. She couldn't leave him just like that.

...

After a few minutes of traveling, Souta saw a small town. There were only three hundred people living in the town and the strongest person was at peak B-rank.

This...

Souta narrowed his head as he turned his head to the side. He glanced at the other floating lands and finally realized his position.

He knew where to start now. It took him a while to recall the in and outs of this land.

He couldn't ask the Hullscan, the locals of this land, since they didn't know how to speak the common language. They had their own language which was called Dreamspeak.

Now that he knew where he was, it would be easy for him to complete the trial.

Souta disappeared in his position and reappeared on the highest floating land in this area.

This entire land was called Vanko. It was divided into nine zones and sixty-eight regions. If he wasn't wrong, he was in the Hull Zone. Hull Zone was the smallest zone in this land. It only consisted of four regions.

It was also the only zone that the Hullscan tribe owned. The other zones were the territory of the vicious dream beasts.I think you should take a look at

"Okay..."

Souta flew at high speed. He visited various floating land in just a few minutes. He also didn't forget to kill the dream beast that he met.

In just twenty minutes, he killed thirty nine drebeastsast. Just a little bit more and he would be able to complete one of the quests.

The environment was twisted.

Some place was filled with lightning. Some were raining heavily.

Some have volcanic eruptions all day.

Some have space distorted and strong gravitational pull.

Some have sharp winds blowing out of nowhere. These winds were comparable to an attack of an initial B-rank.

Some places had a super low temperature. All beings and particles were frozen.

And Vanko was just a small part of the entire Nightmare Realm.

Swoosh!!

Half an hour had passed ever since Souta arrived in this land.

He arrived near the core. He was also outside of the Hull Zone.

"I'm here..."

Souta looked ahead and saw various dream beasts wandering around. He tightly clenched his fist before he charged forward.

His energy spiked up as he fought more than twenty dream beasts alone.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

He finally arrived in front of the core of Vanko. It was a huge sphere with a height of ten meters. It was oozing out a huge amount of energy, greater than his expectations.

The pressure here was heavy to the point that it was suffocating.

If he was weaker Souta would guess that he would fall on his knees.

"The core is here..."

Souta smiled as he stared at the core.

This core was the power source of Vanko Land. It was made up of various laws and concepts. Souta wouldn't be able to destroy it even if he used all of his aces in his sleeve.

This was the reason why the core wasn't heavily guarded.

The concept and laws here were comparable to Imperium. The laws in boundary, beyond, or outworlds couldn't hold a candle to Dream Realm.

It was the highest level of concept and laws.

Honestly, according to the gods, the Dream Realm was a part of the Imperium. It was connected to each other just like how the Soul Realm was connected to everything.

It was a part of the cycle of the world, Mother.

Well, this core wasn't the core of the entire Dream Realm or Nightmare Realm. It was just one of the cores of this land called Vanko.

Souta couldn't even touch it with his current strength. He would explode and die painfully if he did that.

"I know very little of this world but... is this really the core?"

He muttered. He glanced at the system and saw that he already completed the quest. He wanted to stare at it and observed it using [Galaxy Eyes]. But he had a feeling that it wasn't a good idea.

This so-called "core" was beyond his current level.

Besides, according to what he remembered there were nine cores in this land.

Souta glanced at the system and heard a familiar sound.

[Quest Triggered]!!

[Vanko]: Conquer one of the territories in the Vanko Land.

Reward: Access to the Dream Realm.

Souta took a deep breath as he took the mask from his head. He then slowly stretched his hand toward the core.

Ohm!!

The mask emitted a dark red light. It feels like it became connected to the core and various knowledge was poured into his mind. All of it was about Vanko.

"Just a little bit more and I will be able to finish it..."

Souta muttered to himself. Conquering one of the regions wasn't a problem for him. He could do it in the game so he could do it right now.𝔫𝑜𝗏𝔢𝑙𝐮𝒮𝒷.𝐜𝗈𝚖

He stretched his arms and silently circulated the energy in his body.

"Hu~ it's time for a real exercise."

After this, he would be able to exit this place using the mask. Also, he was looking for to the time when he gained the access of the Dream Land. He could enter and exit as he please. He would become as if he was a dream beast himself.
