"What happened?"

"Didn't Tong Lu say that these nightmares have been around for at least 100 years?"

"But why do they look so much like the monsters in the Elemental Realm?"

"The man-eating flowers in the Yuan Domain are also skilled at illusion and disguise, and this Nightmare is the same; even its abilities are similar."

"It seems that this Nightmare must have some kind of connection with the monsters in the Yuan Domain."

"Perhaps because Tong Lu's level is too low, he doesn't know the connection."

"Ugh~"

Just as Wang Ming was pondering, an untimely voice rang out. It was Yan Qingcheng, who, upon seeing the Nightmare's true appearance, couldn't help but vomit.

Upon hearing this sound, the Nightmare, which resembled a man-eating flower, screamed. Its already repulsive chrysanthemum-like face became even more distorted, and it angrily lunged at Yan Qingcheng.

When it reached Yan Qingcheng, it opened its blood-red maw, intending to swallow her whole.

"snort."

Wang Ming snorted coldly, quickly came to Yan Qingcheng's side, picked her up by the waist, and punched Yan.

"boom"

Nightmare crossed his arms in front of his chest to block Wang Ming's attack, and used the force of Wang Ming's punch to quickly retreat, heading straight for the door.

"Jeh!" Nightmare emitted waves of sound. The barrier formed by the Illusion Stone grew thinner and thinner under the attack of the sound waves, and it looked like it was about to collapse.

Seeing this, Wang Ming quickly put Yan Qingcheng down and tried to stop her, but Yan Qingcheng held on to Wang Ming tightly.

"Don't go."

Yan Qingcheng's body trembled, clearly frightened by what had just happened.

"Don't be afraid." Wang Ming straightened Yan Qingcheng's disheveled clothes, cupped her face in his hands, and spoke softly.

"Hmm." Yan Qingcheng looked at the man so close to her, feeling his unique aura, her face flushed, and she subconsciously let go of Wang Ming.

"Break!" Nightmare roared, and the barrier shattered in response.

Seeing that the Nightmare was about to escape, Wang Ming rushed towards it.

As a result, the nightmare, which was about to escape, actually retreated.

"Well done." Wang Ming raised his fist and attacked Nightmare. The sound of air being cut was heard, and Wang Ming's fist directly hit Nightmare's chrysanthemum face, punching it through.

With a loud bang, Nightmare finally died.

"Wang Ming, are you alright?"

"I'm fine. Luckily you arrived in time, otherwise this nightmare would have escaped."

The reason the Nightmare retreated was because Tong Lu arrived and drove it back into the room.

A refreshing feeling washed over Wang Ming, making him feel completely comfortable. The Soul Devouring Technique activated, and without a doubt, Wang Ming's strength increased once again.

"Wang Ming, your strength is too great. Judging from the energy fluctuations, this Nightmare's strength has reached the high level of D-rank. I didn't expect it couldn't withstand the power of your punch."

"Well, it's all thanks to your timely arrival."

"By the way, Tong Lu, how do we determine the strength level of Nightmare?"

"We determine the Nightmare's strength level based on its energy level."

“A typical F-rank Nightmare has an energy fluctuation of 300.”

"An E-level Nightmare, with energy fluctuations ranging from 300 to 1000."

"A D-level Nightmare, with energy fluctuations ranging from 1000 to 3000."

"A C-level Nightmare, with energy fluctuations ranging from 3000 to 5000."

"A B-grade Nightmare, with energy fluctuations ranging from 5000 to 7000."

"A-grade Nightmare, energy fluctuations from 7000 to..."

"As for the S-rank Nightmare, its energy fluctuations are at least at the starting level."

"At the same time, our levels as superhumans are also divided according to this numerical range, but we are more used to calling these values ​​combat power."

"Although this Nightmare is a transformation type and its physical attributes are not as good as yours, it is still a genuine high-level D-rank Nightmare."

"You punched through his body, so your combat power is probably at least 2000."

"In other words, your ability level is either mid-D or high-D!" Tong Lu said with envy.

"Mid-to-high D-rank, perhaps."

"Tong Lu, what should we do now?"

This was Wang Ming's first time completing a mission to kill a Nightmare, and in this situation, he had to listen to Tong Lu.

"Hehe, we can leave the rest to the military's special departments."

"They will take the Nightmare's corpse back and conduct research on it together with our Chinese Guardians' specialized agency."

As the two were talking, a group of security personnel arrived.

To be precise, they were a group of soldiers.

"Hehe, Wang Ming, let's go. We can leave this to them."

"And what about these people?"

"Don't worry, the military will handle it."

"Okay, let's go then."

Wang Ming glanced at Yan Qingcheng, nodded to her, and then left.

“Wang Ming, his name is Wang Ming.”

"He looks somewhat like him. Could he be the Wang Ming I know?"

"No, how could he be that playboy?" Yan Qingcheng's mind raced when she heard Tong Lu call Wang Ming's name.

......

"Based on this attribute, killing this D-rank Nightmare increases all of my base attributes by 100 points."

"Not bad, not bad, the Nightmare still smells pretty good."

"Especially since my stamina has reached 1188 points, plus the all-attribute bonus from Crimson Moon City and the bonus from the title of Eighth-Rank Captain, it's over 1200."

"Hehe, with this stamina attribute, even if you encounter a damage dealer wearing a full set of 4-star gear, they can barely break through my defense."

"Server-wide announcement: Congratulations to the players of Chixiao City who have completed the hidden quest - Clearing the Secret Realm - Misty Fairy Forest."

"From now on, this secret realm will be transformed into a dungeon, managed by the dungeon administrators in each major city. Players can go to the dungeon administrators to challenge this dungeon."

"Announcement for the whole region:..."

"Announcement for the whole region:..."

"Boss Cao's team has cleared the secret realm."

Wang Ming was somewhat envious, as this secret realm was a one-time event, and the rewards were exceptionally generous.

"I was originally planning to grind monsters, but since a new dungeon has been released, I'll go grind some dungeons instead."

"To be honest, I haven't run any dungeons since I started playing the game."

Ming took out the return scroll and returned to Scarlet Moon City.
