Chapter 221: Weird Town



With so many people outside looking for him, An Nuo naturally didn't dare to tell everyone "I'm here".

Philomena's memory is missing, and there is no information about the enemy for the time being.

For your own safety, stay here for a while.

"The most urgent task now is to upgrade our level and enter the fourth level as soon as possible."

Annuo took Liz on the magical beast and rode through the jungle, moving forward towards the north.

If you want to level up, the fastest way is to fight high-level enemies and gain combat experience.

"Master, we are about to get out of the jungle. It seems there are no third-level monsters in here!"

Liz said unhappily as she looked at the grassland outside the jungle.

The two of them deliberately walked through the more difficult jungle in order to hunt the monsters there.

But the highest level creature in this jungle is only a level 15 earth dog.

An Nuo said nonchalantly: "We'll kill them if we meet them on the road, but forget it if we don't. Once we quietly reach the royal city and understand the situation on the front line, we'll go to the front line to fight!"

Going to the front line to fight against the Demon King's army is a good way to level up quickly.

The premise is, to be alive!

"It's getting late. There's a town ahead. Let's stay there!"

An Nuo walked out of the jungle, looked at the setting sun, pointed at the smoke in front and said.

"oh!"

Liz responded listlessly.

The town in front of us is much smaller than the small town of Gruul in the south.

It looked like there were only about two hundred households at most, and the population would not exceed a thousand.

Annuo called back the magical beast that was used as a means of transportation in advance, and put his equipment into the ring.

At this time, An Nuo was wearing coarse cloth clothes, a red turban on his head, and carrying a package on his back.

Just like a traveler.

Liz needs to continue wearing her cloak because of her wings and magic horns.

The town had no moat, only a man-high fence to prevent wild animals from rushing in.

There were two soldiers dozing at the gate of the fence.

They sat on chairs, holding iron swords, looking like they wanted to sleep but were afraid to.

An Nuo saw that the two soldiers looked to be around 40 years old and were level 10.

When the two men passed by the soldiers, the latter seemed not to notice An Nuo and the others and did not move at all.

"Dark circles under your eyes. Didn't you get enough rest?"

An Nuo saw that the soldiers had dark circles under their eyes and guessed why they were napping.

Walking into the town, Annuo found that there were very few pedestrians on the road, and some of them were special.

Their appearance is similar to that of the villagers in the eastern border.

He was wearing a patched coarse cloth shirt and his face always showed fatigue.

His face was sallow and he looked malnourished.

You can tell at first glance that he is a person oppressed by the aristocracy.

Compared to them, the people in the southern border look much better.

However, Annuo discovered something rather strange.

Everyone passing by had dark circles under their eyes!

Their eyes were bloodshot and their expressions were dazed, as if they hadn't slept for several days.

When something is abnormal, there must be something wrong!

An Nuo stood in front of a young man who was walking towards him.

"What are you going to do?"

The young man was blocked and was stunned for a moment. When he saw that Annuo was an unfamiliar face, he immediately looked alert.

"I'm a traveler passing through. You can call me An. It's getting dark soon, so I want to stay in town for one night."

After An Nuo introduced himself, the other party's expression eased a lot.

He said his name was Rasu and pointed Anno in the direction of the hotel.

“Go ahead and you will find the only inn in Graydream Town. You can have something to eat there.

As for accommodation here.

My advice is to leave as soon as you finish eating, Gray Dream Town is not suitable for staying overnight! "

An Nuo raised his eyebrows and asked, "What do you mean?"

After hearing the question, Lasu said nervously, "Because this village is cursed!"

Then Lasu and Annuo talked about the recent strange situation in Gray Dream Town.

There are only a thousand people in Graydream Town, which is one of the territories of Viscount Mond in the West.

This period is already the harvest season, and the crops will be harvested in just a dozen days.

Originally, everyone in the town was very happy.

But a week ago, the town was suddenly cursed.

That night, when some people fell asleep, they heard mumbling in their ears, and then they entered a strange dream.

The first person to hear the sound was an elderly man in the town.

According to them, it was like the devil's whisper echoing in their minds.

I am in a dream, surrounded by all kinds of scary ghosts.

The ghosts kept biting their bodies, and the pain went deep into their bones.

It doesn't feel like a dream at all.

But I couldn't wake up.

After finally making it to dawn, they finally woke up from the dream.

But his face was pale and his spirit was listless.

The two dark circles under the eyes look like they haven't slept all night.

If a person is like this, there may be something wrong with his body.

But when a group of people did this, people in the town became a little scared.

In the following days, more and more townspeople heard the mumbling.

Today, almost one-third of the population has experienced strange dreams.

Moreover, someone died the day before yesterday.

Some people still haven't woken up after dawn.

When the family found the body, it was already cold.

As soon as the news spread, the people in the town immediately panicked.

Many people feel that the town is cursed!

When someone died, the mayor took the money raised by everyone and went to the town where the viscount was to find mercenaries to help.

Probably will be back tonight.

"I was dragged into a dream the day before yesterday. It was so horrible there, it was like hell!"

There was a hint of fear in La Su's eyes when he spoke, "So, many people in this town are trying not to sleep.

I dare not sleep, for fear of being cursed and dying in my dream!

Although the mayor will be back tonight, you should leave here as soon as you finish your meal.

It would be unfortunate if I were cursed and lost my life."

Just after he finished speaking, La Su smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying: "It will be dark soon. There are wild beasts and monsters in the wild, and it is not safe. Alas, you are really unlucky!

I just bought some amulets for my family and now I have to go back."

Lasu breathed goodbye to Annuo.

Looking at Lasu's departing back and the townspeople hurrying along the street, Annuo's expression looked a little solemn.

The journey lasted three days and we passed through many villages and towns.

But this is the first time I have encountered the situation in Gray Dream Town.

Liz walked up to Anno and whispered, "Being able to pull sleeping people into dreams, how come this ability is so similar to my race?"

An Nuo looked at Liz in confusion and asked, "Can your race do this?"

"Of course you can, but it requires fourth-level strength!"

"So, there is a fourth-level succubus in this town?"

An Nuo's heart skipped a beat.

"To be precise, it's a nightmare!"

Liz explained, “In our race, the females are succubi and the males are incubi!

The dreams created by a succubus are similar to erotic dreams.

We can absorb other people's essence in dreams and improve our strength!

But the dreams created by nightmares are based on the theme of fear.

The situation in this town is likely to be a fourth-order nightmare!"

Anno and Liz were discussing when Lasu, who had just left, ran back following a group of people.

Compared to before, Rasu's face was full of joy.

After glancing at the people around Lasu, Annuo knew why Lasu was happy.

These people are all second-level professionals, and judging by their attire, they are mercenaries hired by the mayor.

"An, the mayor is back with his mercenaries. The town's curse may be resolved tonight!"

Rasu saw An and shouted excitedly.

When the people around Lasu heard this, they looked at Anno and lost interest after realizing that he was just an ordinary traveler.

When An Nuo saw Lasu coming over, he forced a smile.

If it really is a fourth-level nightmare, these second-level mercenaries are useless!
