Chapter 316 Join forces

 After this period of contact, Yi Chen did not know the ins and outs of Catherine, but he still understood the basic situation.

Although Catherine is better at performing small tricks, such as her nightmare plan in Zion, she hid it from all prophets and used new pathological concepts such as 'ideas' to infiltrate and evade all medical detection.

But her actual combat skills are not bad either. After all, she is made up of countless women who have participated in circus interviews, and the "regeneration" can be said to be endless.

 If any part of the body is injured, the female body in other areas can quickly come over to fill it.

Furthermore, Catherine also defeated the first person in charge of prosthetic research, the deputy director of the power station-Kimberly Cabrera, which is enough to illustrate her actual combat strength.

“My chat with Prophet Marko shouldn’t have been long, right? Twenty minutes? Half an hour?

 Catherine died once in such a short period of time? Could it be that when she arrived at Center Street, it was completely covered in cortex, causing her to lose the privileges related to nightmares.

 Accidentally, he was accidentally attacked by Spacey and Mr. Zed and died?

　　No...Catherine could not have made such a low-level mistake, otherwise she would have been arrested in Zion.

 There must have been a [variable], a [variable] that far exceeded Catherine's expectation. So who brought this variable? "

 Different from others who are accustomed to guessing about the mysterious Wrinkly Spacey,

When talking about variables, a picture instantly appeared in Yi Chen's mind - "a paradise full of fitness equipment, with Teacher Zed sitting in the center waving."

While Yi Chen was thinking, tick-tick-tick~

 An extremely viscous and smoky liquid dripped from the top of his head, and Yi Chen quickly took a step back.

More and more liquid, until something melts through the floor...

Snapped!

A human egg with tentacles at the bottom fell directly, and the lines outlined on the surface corresponded to countless smiling faces.

The top of the egg is split into four spots like a blooming flower.

Catherine, whose body was covered in nightmare mucus, was sitting with her knees in her arms. When she opened her eyes, the first look that came out of her pupils was "fear".

ah!

　　A scream composed of multiple female voices echoed in the library.

 Catherine wore mucus as clothes, got up and threw herself into Yi Chen's arms.

 The petite body was trembling with fear, and the arms hugging Yi Chen became tighter and tighter.

“It’s so scary, they actually killed me forcibly! William, why are there such terrifying monsters among you humans... I won’t play anymore! I want to go home!”

Yi Chen didn’t have any sympathy for her, and said with a gloomy face:

"Hey~ can you stop pretending to be Catherine? Tell me the specific situation quickly. A cunning guy like you can actually be embarrassed. What happened?"

 When Yi Chen said this, Catherine naturally lost interest.

“Tch~ Even if you see through other people’s acting skills, don’t say it~ Really, there’s no fun at all.

How else can I explain it? He was just killed! Anyway, I figured it out, and I wasn’t the only one who was killed. "

 “You were not the only one killed, what does that mean?”

“Mosander was also killed~ That guy was probably sitting on a small bed in the circus crying loudly.

I didn’t expect that a small human tribe could cultivate such a monster. It was beyond my expectation. As an old-school Pi Chang, it seems that he still has a lot of experience in cultivating talents. "

 “Is it Zed or Wrinkly?”

“You’ll know just by looking at the scoreboard, I’ve already changed the score.”

 On the scoreboard, the prophet's name has been crossed out due to his departure.

 Of the only two people left, Wrinkle's score remains unchanged, while Zed's score changes again.

 【Corpse-Hogney Zed】

  *Since this person’s strength far exceeds the game settings, the method of obtaining relevant points has been changed.

 It is allowed to jointly kill and expel this person. Once successful, a total of 50 points will be allocated based on individual contribution. If the game participant can enslave this person, he will win the game.

　　　　Is it really Teacher Zed...』

Yi Chen did not reveal his relationship with Zede, but pretended to be serious and answered:

 “Catherine, do you want to join forces with me?”

“What’s the matter~ Aren’t there two people on the other side anyway? One is grafting skin to corrode my nightmare, and the other is hiding in the dark and responsible for hunting.”

“If we really achieve a joint kill, how can we ensure the fairness of score distribution?”

When Catherine heard these words, she was different from her usual "well-behaved" self. Instead, she puffed up her mouth angrily, "William, we have been together for so long, can't we even earn the most basic trust?"

 “It’s just a joke, if you want to join forces, then join forces.

 How about I deal with the wrinkled skin first? Otherwise, this guy may continue to cause trouble through the spread of [skin] while we join forces. "

“Bah! Miss, I have found out clearly at the cost of [death]. The guy in charge of skin grafting basically doesn’t do anything, but concentrates on dream skin grafting. He seems to trust the corpse without eyes.

We only need to work together to deal with Zed alone. If we encounter skin interference on the way, we can use temporary methods to break it.

 Remember, William, you and I are in an alliance. If there is any leakage during the joint process, or even the tendency to induce my death, the soul contract will detect it.

 Be sure to cooperate with me seriously and kill the opponent. "

“Don’t worry, as long as you keep your promise, Catherine, I will definitely not make any small moves.

 Isn’t it just a corpse? Deal with him! "

After Yi Chen learned that the third leader of the acrobatic troupe and Catherine had both been killed once by Teacher Zed, Yi Chen had already predicted the final direction of this game.

and,

Yi Chen happened to also want to take a look,

Teacher Zed who has always treated him as a student, how high is his real level, and how can he defeat or even kill two circus members head-on.

 …

 【Power Station-Dream Room】

 After the prophets Marco and Martin woke up, they completed the self-examination as quickly as possible.

He did not explain any experiences in the dream, nor did he call any helpers. He just left early due to physical discomfort.

The reason is simple. He can infer that many people in Zion have been subconsciously affected by nightmares, and even the power station may have been infiltrated.

 Otherwise it would be impossible for the other party to get their personal information to create this nightmare game.

If the prophet carries out the eradication of nightmares in a big way, there is a high probability that the 'switch' buried in the brains of the people will be triggered in advance, causing nightmares to break out across the city.

Marco and Martin must act in secret and try their best to remove the nightmare hazard from the minds of the people of Zion before the end of the game.

 After a perfect disguise, he randomly descended into the residences of some gentlemen living alone, mainly on the lower streets. Before the residents could react, he used mental oppression to force them into coma.

 Using the detection method he learned in his nightmare, he implanted a "mental band" similar to an antigen into the opponent's mind.

 The result shocked Marco.

The five residents he randomly selected all reacted, with a little nightmare substance flowing out from their nostrils. One person even experienced a mutation, with a weird smile appearing on his face, and small tentacles growing out of all five holes.

 “Is it such a large proportion?

If the grassroots area is eroded by more than 80% of thoughts, I alone will not be able to completely eradicate it before the end of the game, and I must call for help. "

Just when Marco and Martin walked out of the residents' homes in the lower district in disguise, a crisp and regular sound of iron knocking attracted his attention.

The stall of [Maid Pancake] comes into view,

A maid boss who looks very professional in her skills but is actually very unfamiliar is making pancakes for customers.

 “This is... Yuri-senpai’s maid?”
