Yang Kaixu's body began to grow colder and colder, and Nightmare held him tightly, not giving him any chance to struggle.
Faith is a very strange miracle.
It seems omnipotent, but it relies on others to accomplish things; it can do nothing on its own.
"Have you ever considered that you might not actually be suited for this miracle?"
The nightmare spoke slowly, its words filled with mockery.
"Don't you find it ridiculous that a lone wolf's greatest abilities depend on others to activate them?"
"Who can give you faith? Who can give you trust? Those who trusted you are all dead. You only have yourself left."
"But, in reality, you don't even trust yourself!"
Yang Kaixu gave a bitter smile.
"Do you really believe you can defeat Jiang Ran and seize the final divine position?"
"If you don't even trust yourself at all, how can you expect others to trust you?"
"trust......"
Yang Kaixu closed his eyes and then smiled.
"Director, you certainly have great ambitions, and you are confident enough."
"But confidence alone is not enough. Can you be perfect in controlling the timing, seizing opportunities, and understanding human nature?"
Whether I'm capable or not is not for you to decide!
"Yang Kaixu! Become a chapter in my journey back to the divine path!"
"Use your decaying body to ignite the last firefly!"
"It's a way of making use of waste!"
The nightmare opened its huge mouth and swallowed Yang Kaixu whole!
In this eerie world, the director's pupils gradually lose focus.
On the deserted island, Yang Kaixu opened his eyes, revealing a pair of cold, snake-like pupils!
This was the director's plan!
His primary goal was not to kill Arceus and retrieve the [Body Possession] and the [Lost]!
He wanted to possess Yang Kaixu's body, then replace Yang Kaixu, and then go on to kill Jiang Ran and seize power in the [Wheel of Destiny] lineage!
"Since I've already had a second chance, why should I follow the old path and choose the role of [director]?"
"If we're going to choose, let's choose the best!"
The disappearance of the malevolent Yang Kaixu in the air proves that the current Yang Kaixu is no longer Yang Kaixu; he is the director!
"It's time to end this game, Jiang Ran!"
The director raised his hands, and two small snakes emerged from his wrists, their eyes flashing with a red and a blue light!
He wants to invoke other miracles!
Jiang Ran's use of [Lost] directly deprived him of the opportunity to use it! However, the two consecutive uses of [Lost] also caused Jiang Ran's mental energy to be rapidly depleted!
"Jiang Ran, you can't beat me!"
"Even a god who has fallen to the status of mortal was once a god! You are worlds apart from him!"
The director's Tang sword blazed with flames as he poured his spiritual energy into the attack!
In this way, Jiang Ran would have to expend more mental energy to use the Wheel of Fate to avoid his attack!
The director himself possesses immense mental power through certain means, and with the mental power reduction brought by [faith], he can use the simplest tactic: exchanging mental power for mental power!
"I really have to thank you, Jiang Ran. You've collected so much divinity along the way, which has saved me a lot of trouble!"
"Director—" Jiang Ran dodged to the side, smiling slightly at the same time, "You think you've won?"
No matter how much you struggle, you can't change anything!
The director swung his sword, creating a wave of flames in the air!
He knew Jiang Ran still had the [Remnant Dream] unused, but what use was it? Could this [Miracle] alone possibly turn the world upside down?
"Die!"
The Tang sword pierced through Jiang Ran's chest from front to back!
"Ha ha!"
"Jiang Ran!"
The people next to them tried to rush forward, but they were knocked down by the director's stomp shockwave!
"With Jiang Ran dead, what trouble can you possibly cause?"
The director stared intently at Rusger: "Then, let me reclaim [Justice] first."
He took a step forward, but suddenly clutched his chest!
"wrong......"
No! A will has revived within him!
"Yang Kaixu! Impossible! You couldn't possibly have broken free from the Nightmare!"
The director coughed up a mouthful of blood, and the snake eyes in his eyes were gradually fading. From his arms to his feet, he was gradually losing control of his body!
"What exactly is going on...?"
"Indeed, in the depths of the Nightmare, there is no one I can trust anymore."
"But even under those circumstances, I did receive a sense of trust..."
Just now, Yang Kaixu was hit by the Nightmare, and Jiang Ran naturally used the Water Mirror to record a copy of the Nightmare.
Therefore, he knew the specific effects of [Nightmare]! He could also naturally deduce that the director's attack was not intended for Rusgerer at all; he wanted Jiang Ran to distort the landing point and affect Yang Kaixu!
As for why it wasn't used directly on Yang Kaixu, it was because it would be convenient to consume a portion of Jiang Ran's mental energy, so why not?
Then, Jiang Ran used the [Lover] ability to remove all pretense and confront Yang Kaixu's deep psychology!
Even nightmares cannot stop lovers!
"Didn't you say you wanted to create a true utopia?"
"Please, after making me look so pathetic in the dream world, how could I possibly be so easily taken down by the director?"
"I believe in you, you won't leave so easily!"
This is a miracle from [Remnant Dream]!
Jiang Ran modified his thoughts, making himself 100% convinced of this idea, thereby triggering Yang Kaixu's [faith]!
He believed Yang Kaixu wouldn't collapse here! He wouldn't let the director possess his body so easily!
Therefore, Yang Kaixu would not have collapsed here, and his body would not have been so easily taken over by the director!
"Get out of here!"
Yang Kaixu reached into his throat, pulled out a green snake, and slammed it hard onto the ground!
"I never expected that you would be the one to believe me in the end."
Jiang Ran helps Yang Kaixu break free from the director's control only because she doesn't want to see a director's version of Yang Kaixu. It doesn't mean they've reconciled or can stand on the same side.
"Fine! Let's see who ends up being the last one standing!"
Yang Kaixu opened his palm, lightning flashed, and a thunderstorm descended, encompassing the small snake that the director had transformed into, as well as Jiang Ran, into the attack range!
boom!
The director has manipulated the minds of these little snakes! He wants to make them no longer believe that Yang Kaixu is omnipotent, and he intends to use the "writer" to control him!
However, there are always people on the field who don't know the principle, such as Gwen and Alice. They still believe in Yang Kaixu's strength, which allows Yang Kaixu to resist the director's control and maintain his power!
