The expression on Hasselblad's face slowly solidified.
He began to observe the surrounding environment. This grassland deep in the dreamland was so vast and had an environment very similar to the real world. It was completely different from the black and white shadow fortress before. Therefore, Hasselblad was completely unconscious when he woke up.
There was no difference between this place and the real world, but at this moment, under Hao Ren's reminder, he calmed down and finally felt the ubiquitous sense of dissonance from the breeze and wilderness around him.
The wind blows unchangingly, with no change in intensity or direction every minute and second. The green grass on the field gently swings in one direction, unchanged and in constant circulation. The bright moon in the sky also seems to be fixed in the background of the sky.
The light did not move at all, and looked far brighter and larger than the moon under normal circumstances.
It even makes the entire grassland shine with a faint silver light.
Of course the old hunter is not stupid. He is just like all demon hunters, and his judgment will be affected by the strong impulse produced by the hunting instinct. At this moment, there are only two people in front of him, Hao Ren and Lily, and one of them will not trigger the hunting instinct at all.
The fighting impulse caused by the other one can be resisted with willpower. Therefore, after deciding to calm down, Hasselblad quickly regained control of himself. He confirmed that even if he was not in Vivian's sleeping space, he was still in a sleeping space.
In the abnormal realm that is isolated from the real world, he looked at Hao Ren with a calmer and more serious gaze: "What do you want?"
"I said, I have the same purpose as you demon hunters, I want to stop Vivian before her madness gets out of control," Hao Ren shrugged, "But I didn't expect that there was a group of demon hunters with the same purpose.
Come on, you and I both know very well that there is a never-ending relationship between demon hunters and other races, so even if we both have the same goals, we will still fight after meeting. This will definitely be bad, and no one will take advantage in the end.
, but it made the situation completely out of control. You are a smart man and you should know that I had no choice but to tie you here."
Hasselblad frowned. Of course he could not logically refute the facts Hao Ren said: the war between demon hunters and other races was an unreasonable killing spree. In this era where innate hostility is completely unavoidable, Hasselblad frowned.
, even if a few people can realize the absurdity of this war when they are alone, they are powerless to do anything about it, and even when facing other races, they will join the battlefield uncontrollably.
At this moment, in a calm state, Hasselblad admitted that what Hao Ren said made sense.
But he is obviously not happy with the way he is being treated.
"Your thoughts are very naive," he looked into Hao Ren's eyes. "Even if you say this sincerely, I have to tell you that you are too naive. Are you actually trying to seek reconciliation between demon hunters and aliens?"
"I never said we wanted to reconcile from the beginning," Hao Ren shrugged, "I just said that in this current situation, at this moment and here, we can cooperate to deal with Vivian's violent transformation, but after that, we will
If a person should be beaten, he can still continue to beat him. Use your brain to think about what is appropriate."
Hasselblad didn't speak. He just looked at Hao Ren, and then his eyes gradually crossed Hao Ren's shoulders and looked towards the sky.
The bright and huge full moon hangs high in the sky, but at some point, traces of blood-like red have appeared on the originally silver-white moon disk. The red lines spread from the periphery of the moon disk to the middle.
The entire moon looks like a huge eyeball filled with bloodshot eyes.
"It seems that I don't have much time left to think about it," Hasselblad smiled, "She has already noticed us."
Hao Ren also noticed the direction of Hasselblad's gaze. He turned around and saw the bright moon gradually being stained with blood.
"Will you feel free to open these shackles?" Hasselblad raised his hands, and two metal rings were stuck on his wrists. The faint blue light emitted by the metal rings constantly suppressed his power, making his ability to move at this moment even worse than that of ordinary humans.
Rather, "Once you open them, it's not that easy to put them back on."
"I don't have to turn them on, I just need to turn them off."
Hao Ren smiled and snapped his fingers. The metal rings bound to Hasselblad's hands and feet immediately made a subtle buzzing sound. Then Hasselblad felt his power return to his body. However, the metal rings themselves still had no power.
There are signs of loosening. It is obvious that these things will re-seal all his power in an instant when the situation requires it.
"Don't think about using violence to remove these rings," Hao Ren saw what Hasselblad was thinking. "These things are definitely stronger than anything you can imagine. If you have to make an analogy... they are like science and technology."
The bricks and tiles of the ancient temples in the Alpos space are as indestructible."
When Hasselblad realized the working mechanism of these rings, he gave up his plan to take advantage of the loopholes. There was a werewolf standing next to him. This is the race with the fastest reaction speed in close combat, so he knew that even if he suddenly burst into action, he would not be able to take advantage of the loopholes.
You won't take advantage of any surprise attack, and after a delay of one or two seconds, the metal ring will be reactivated, and your own resistance is destined to be unsuccessful.
After hearing what Hao Ren said casually, his eyes widened even more: "Who are you? Why do you know so many things about Corpus?"
"Not only do I know where your Corpus is, I also know that there is a Tower of Stars as the internal and external passage to Corpus. I know that your Ice Fortress has twelve barracks and seventy-seven towers.
There are three spires on the main entrance of your Frost Temple. You have an elder named Gregorian who is older than you. You have a very good personal relationship with him. Moreover, your elder Gregorian was a naughty boy when he was a child.
Once in the barn...Ahem, let's not go into this digression."
Hao Ren's bombing stunned Hasselblad, and the old hunter was immediately confused: "Have you ever been to Corpus?"
"Want to know? It's very simple. I will tell you everything after we resolve the crisis in this place." Hao Ren deliberately told a lot of information that would definitely make Hasselblad scratch his head, but he didn't realize it.
His eyes stopped, and he looked up at the bright moon in the sky. At this moment, the moonlight was obviously red, "Now, it's time for you to speak. Don't tell me that you led an elite hunting group here, but...
No intelligence has been investigated at all. Vivian hasn't woken up yet, and we can't even see where she is. How did you originally plan to fight against her?"
Hasselblad looked into Hao Ren's eyes and finally sighed helplessly: "...Well, although our initial plan was to wait for the Countess to wake up and enter the real world before taking action, we also have a plan.
, what should we do if the situation forces us to enter this shadow world to fight against the countess before she wakes up..."
"The countess will wake up from two worlds. First, she will wake up in her own dream. Her incarnation in the dream world is the shadow in the moonlight. Then, she will wake up in the real world, and everything in the dream world will collapse.
In reality, if we have to face her in advance, we must not let this process proceed completely, otherwise she will be so powerful in the shadow world that everyone will despair," Hasselblad said while taking out the
He took the holy silver dagger he carried with him. Under Lily's vigilant gaze, he used the dagger to cut his finger. Drops of bright red blood with a slight silvery light overflowed from the wound, and then suspended in the air contrary to common sense.
"This is the knowledge that many demon hunters have gained with their lives. In an operation more than a thousand years ago, dozens of experienced warriors were annihilated in the process of dreams collapsing into reality, but they were facing
I sent back this information before I died... By holding a blood sacrifice ceremony, the countess can be awakened in advance."
More and more blood was suspended in the air, and under the pull of magic power, complex and mysterious patterns gradually formed. These patterns rotated around Hao Ren and the three of them, reflecting the increasingly bright and red blood light, as if they had achieved some kind of miracle.
resonance.
The change speed of the moon in the sky suddenly accelerated.
Large areas of red began to appear on the moon disk. At first, they appeared as growing lines, but soon they turned into continuous color spots. The huge color spots were as visible to the naked eye as ink marks on rice paper.
The speed spread to the entire moon surface, and within a few breaths, the originally bright and bright silver moon turned red!
However, this red moon was not the "red moon" that Hao Ren knew. It only had an evil atmosphere, but it did not have the power to make any living being fear and go crazy.
At this time, Hesiana's voice suddenly sounded in the communicator: "Control of the Soulless Guards has been secured."
Hasselblad immediately turned his head: "What is that?"
"It's just a gadget for keeping in touch," Hao Ren said casually, "What did you just do?"
"I revived the Countess early," Hasselblad said, "before she came into her prime."
It seems that even though the demon hunters have been tortured by Vivian for so many years, they have not made any progress.
A little dark shadow appeared in the moonlight.
At first, Hao Ren thought he had seen it wrong because the black shadow was extremely thin and appeared and disappeared. However, it didn't take long for the black shadow to enlarge and become so solid that it could not be ignored. At the same time as the black shadow appeared,
Something as bright as blood also began to overflow around the red moon. They were like the blood and tears condensed by the red moon, forming a trembling red halo around the moon.
After a moment, blood-red light poured down from under the overflowing "blood tears".
This is a beautiful scene that is difficult to describe in words. The red moon condenses blood, and the blood pours directly from the distant night sky to the earth. The boundary between reality and illusion seems to have disappeared at this moment. Hao Ren can hardly distinguish between those from the past.
Whether it was moonlight or blood pouring down from the sky, he only knew that the black shadow that appeared in the center of the moon came down along the "light beam" pouring down.
Sure enough, as he expected, it was an evil thought body that had just woken up.
"Alas, in my original plan, I would lead seventy-five experienced demon hunters to fight against the countess," Hasselblad sighed, put away the dagger, and took out the hand crossbow and runes.
Card, "But now I have to fight against her with you two. Can you two be worth seventy-five demon hunter warriors?"
"It's not just that," Hao Ren smiled and took out two long swords that were as black as space fragments from his pocket. At the same time, various turrets and missile launchers gradually emerged from the void behind him, "
