The Nightmare Barrier, as the name suggests, is a barrier composed of collective nightmares.
If any creature wants to pass through it, it will encounter the passive attack of nightmares. These collective nightmares will design targeted nightmares based on the psychological weaknesses of the passers-by to defeat the other party's psychological defenses.
And once you die in a dream, you will also be harmed in reality. This is how Nora got hurt.
After listening to the Banshee King's explanation, everyone quickly walked a few steps backward in the direction Nora was originally located to ensure that they would not accidentally touch this barrier.
Then he turned his doubtful eyes to Nora.
"Ahem." Nora hesitated and said, "I dreamed that I became the Pope of the Holy See."
"Then Asik brought people to kill me, saying that I betrayed the camp of the extraordinary."
"I couldn't beat him, he killed me."
"Oh..." The girls all understood. Since it was Aske who appeared in Nora's dream, it is normal for him to kill him if he cannot defeat him. Think about the leader's power in this year.
It left such a shadow in everyone's heart.
Even those like Hilda and Mia, who are often trained by the group leader, ask themselves, if Asik wants to kill them with a sword one day, even in a dream, their legs will probably become weak immediately.
It is impossible to resist. You will definitely not be able to defeat him! In the past year, you have lost to him almost a thousand times, right? You have never won against him even once!
But training is training, this time the team leader really wanted to kill Nora, even in a dream, this is too much!
Thinking of this, everyone looked at Aske with contempt and dissatisfaction.
Ask:???
"Asker, you really went too far this time." Sheila cleared her throat and said.
"What did I do?" Ask asked in confusion.
"You killed Sister Nora in her dream." Mia said.
"Wait a minute, that's not me." Ask asked, dumbfounded, trying to argue, "That was a nightmare! What does it have to do with me? If you want to blame it, you should also blame the nightmare barrier!"
"If you hadn't always bullied her, would Nora be so afraid of you? She would even dream about you in her nightmares?" Eleanor criticized calmly.
I... Asik was speechless.
"Oh, nightmares are not static. The more loopholes there are in the mind, the greater the probability of falling into nightmares." The Banshee King concluded coldly, "It is obvious that it has caused loopholes in people's souls, but at this time, there are still loopholes in the soul.
Plausibly shirking responsibility. Ha, you scumbag."
Ask:………………
He spread his hands helplessly, assuming a posture of lying flat and letting you hammer him. After all, quarreling with a woman is not worthwhile in itself. Losing the argument is embarrassing, winning the argument... is not only embarrassing, but also humiliating.
"Then, we must find a way to 'pass through the nightmare barrier unharmed'." Seeing that everyone was silent, Asker immediately changed the subject skillfully.
"I'll do it." Eleanor stepped forward, "My law of will can be immune to psychic attacks, which should also include dreams."
"Then let Eleanor go and try." Ask said, "If she can pass through the barrier unharmed, we will go to Hearth Island and let her take us through."
"Yes." Eleanor nodded in agreement.
So she took a deep breath, and then bravely walked forward.
………………
Suddenly she woke up and found herself sitting on the Iron Throne.
What a risk! I almost fell into a dream!
Fortunately, my will can help me stay awake and realize that I am dreaming.
Eleanor thought with lingering fear and began to digest the memories in her mind.
She didn't know when she was pulled into the dream. In short, at this point in the dream, she had already left the Blue Sword Mercenary Group and returned to the Weisbach family.
The Saxon family had previously withdrawn from the race for the throne due to the empire's defeat, giving way to her father, the Duke of Bavaria.
A few years later, her father gave her the position again, on the grounds that she had become a demigod and could shoulder the responsibility of leading the entire empire forward.
After sitting on the Iron Throne, as the first female monarch of the empire, she worked hard to govern and led well. She not only eased the relationship between the royal family and major families, lords, vassals and subjects, so that the empire no longer suffered from wars for many years.
It also repaired its relationship with the Holy See and maintained technical support from the south.
Nowadays, the empire's national strength is booming, the people live and work in peace and contentment, both domestic and foreign countries are in a stable state, and everything is developing in the best direction.
The only thing that bothered her was the mercenary groups and swordsman groups that were causing wars in the country.
They usually secretly accept employment from nobles and go to nearby feudal countries to start wars. For nobles, the step of recruiting militia is omitted, and the emperor, who has always been anti-war, will not find out who is starting the war.
Of course, to Eleanor, who now sits on the Iron Throne, these mercenary groups are simply a cancer of the empire. Not only are they always involved in conflicts and conspiracies between nobles, destroying the peaceful relationship between feudal countries, but they are also everywhere
Killing people and burning down houses is simply a heinous crime.
So she promulgated the most stringent "Iron Ban" in history, prohibiting any mercenary group from accepting employment within the empire without permission, and even sent a large number of blade warriors to eliminate those rebellious and illegal mercenaries.
group.
Such measures naturally aroused widespread disgust and hostility among the mercenaries. The Iron Cross Mercenary Group, as the largest established mercenary group in the northern part of the empire, has frequently had fierce frictions with the empire's policy control recently.
Taking advantage of an accidental opportunity, they mobilized the internal forces in the Grand Palace of Aachen, and together with other large mercenary groups, launched an armed coup against the emperor.
"Is this my nightmare?" Eleanor on the Iron Throne shook her head, not caring.
She doesn't like war, but she's not afraid of it. She can also display extraordinary abilities in dreams, and with the Indomitable Holy Sword, it's almost impossible for her to be assassinated by any mercenary.
Not to mention that she still has the rank of demigod at this time.
"Your Majesty!" Several blade warriors quickly came in to report, "The rebels have already invaded the atrium!"
"I will personally put down the rebellion." Eleanor said calmly, stood up from the Iron Throne, and raised the sword and gun next to her.
A few minutes later, corpses were strewn in the palace courtyard.
Eleanor killed the last enemy, then put her sword on the ground and looked around under the guard of the blade warriors.
Because she knew she was in a dream, she felt very relaxed and asked her left and right:
"Are there any other enemies?"
"More enemies are coming towards the atrium!" the Blade Knight replied.
"Is it a demigod?" Eleanor thought that nightmares shouldn't be that simple. She raised her head again and saw Asker walking in with a long sword.
Eleanor:!!!
Her heart tightened instantly.
Even though she knew she was dreaming, she still couldn't help the chill in her limbs.
"Ellie." Ask said coldly, "This day has finally come."
"We have to draw our swords against each other in the end."
"I..." Eleanor's lips were slightly opened, but she couldn't make any sound.
Huge uncontrollable sadness enveloped her, but these negative emotions were quickly dispersed by will. Facing the silent erosion of nightmares, her unyielding skills began to exert a resistance effect.
"This is just a nightmare." Eleanor said in a deep voice, as if she was trying hard to convince herself, "You are fake."
