White Eagle Country, Xiya City.

The weather is nice, with white clouds and blue sky.

Dr. Cota was speeding down the highway in his old Chevrolet sedan.

There are not many cars on the road.

Some have been scrapped on the roadside for months, and the city managers have no intention of taking care of them.

In addition to abandoned vehicles, there are also abandoned houses.

This is a good deal for some homeless people. Some decent ones might clean up the place, but most of them are lazy and some houses are like garbage dumps.

But now, who cares about this?

Everyone knows that the end is coming.

And the days will get worse day by day.

At this time, gunshots were heard in the distance.

Kota was used to the sound of gunfire. He turned on the radio, which was playing an old song. This song was created ten years ago. Listening to the song, he recalled the glory and beauty of the past and compared it with the present.

Kota couldn't help but sigh and say a swear word starting with F.

Industry and commerce are still functioning, and perhaps they will not completely collapse in the future, but it is a fact that their scale is gradually shrinking.

The shortages have been going on for months.

Everything is missing.

Even if you have money, sometimes you can't buy what you need.

This has led to soaring prices.

It just so happens that those in power keep saying on TV that the situation is under control. But people like Kota, who are highly educated and have high incomes, know very well that those people on TV never tell the truth.

The fact is, the situation is already very bad because of the nightmare invasion.

As a renowned psychiatrist, Cota held a senior position in a large hospital, and he was well aware of how many people had died from nightmares in the past few months.

Much more than war.

There were some announcements at first, but soon, because the number was too large, the announcements were banned. But it was still possible to view it through internal data statistics, but later, the internal data reports were also stopped.

Now, perhaps only those who truly hold power and God know how many people in Europe die from nightmares every day in this once most powerful country.

In front is the duck foot area.

A typical civilian area.

The vehicle was driving on the elevated road, but every time passing by here, Kota would close the windows tightly or adjust the air conditioner to internal circulation, because otherwise a strong smell of corpses would come in.

If a person accidentally dies in the duck foot area, there will be no one to deal with the body. It can only rot and stink in a corner, becoming a paradise for maggots.

Fortunately, not all urban areas are as serious as the Duck Foot District.

In some places, life is no different from before.

Money can sometimes solve some problems.

For example, if you buy a property in the core area of ​​Xiya, the security level here is second only to the central urban areas of several major holy cities. It was established by some really rich guys in this city and employs a large number of capable people.

Now, Kota and his family live in it.

This time, Kota went out to buy food and some daily necessities.

The prices in the core area were too high, and the purchase of real estate had exhausted all his savings. He even borrowed a lot of money from the bank for this.

So every bit of savings counts.

After passing several checkpoints, he successfully entered the core area of ​​Xiya City.

On the road, neighbors were jogging, and some people were leisurely eating desserts in roadside cafes. Here and outside are simply two different worlds.

Kota was thankful that he and his family were inside.

After dinner, the family of three said to each other "see you in my dreams" as usual.

Every time he had a dream, Kota was very nervous. He was afraid that those horrible monsters would suddenly appear in his dream and kill his family.

"Kota, relax. This is just a worry caused by anxiety, which is a kind of mental illness. You are an expert in psychiatry. This little problem can be easily resolved. You have to have confidence in yourself."

“Always remember, no matter how hard life gets, keep going.”

Kota muttered to himself before falling asleep.

Then he closed his eyes.

Get rid of nightmares and say goodbye to insomnia. Whenever you want to sleep, you can do it anytime and anywhere.

Under the feeling of loss, I successfully fell asleep.

Kota opened his eyes and saw the dim room and the even darker sky outside.

"This damn world is always so dark. Is it possible that these damn clouds will never disperse? What is on top of these clouds?"

Kota muttered.

At this time, a voice came from the room: "Above the clouds, there is a blood-red moon. It is very beautiful, but it can also drive people crazy."

Kota was shocked.

He immediately turned his head and saw a person sitting on a chair in the corner of his bedroom.

Because the light was dim, only a rough outline could be seen.

"You, you, who are you?"

Kota was terrified. He could hardly stay calm and all kinds of terrible thoughts ran through his mind.

Whoosh! A ball of fire appeared, and then Kota saw a brick with flames.

The firelight illuminated the other person's face.

Very young.

Still an Asian.

Kota was filled with fear and looked around for his wife and children.

"Your wife and children are outside, they are safe. If you don't believe me, you can come with me to check." The man holding the brick stood up, pushed the door and walked out.

Kota followed him out trembling.

Sure enough, I saw my wife and children watching TV outside.

The problem is, he doesn't have a TV at home.

Where did this TV come from? "Doctor Kota, let me introduce myself. My name is Lin Mo. I came to you this time to ask you to give me a diagnosis to prove that I am a lunatic."

The man holding the brick said seriously.

This person is naturally Lin Mo.

It took him a lot of effort to find this Xiya City, and he encountered several terrifying nightmares along the way, at least A-level ones, and they were not very friendly.

Fortunately, Lin Mo was not someone to be trifled with. Besides, Nie Hong and the Butcher were following them, plus Jie Xi's several secondary personalities, even an A-level nightmare was no match for them, so they had no danger along the way.

As for the core area of ​​Xiya City, it actually has a bit of a safe zone feel to it.

There are defense forces on the periphery, and some people who can use the power of nightmares, which makes it much safer than other areas.

But it is also relatively safe.

Without walls and deterrent force, it is easy to stop some ordinary nightmares, but if an A-level nightmare wants to come in, it still cannot be stopped.

In Lin Mo's opinion, this is false security.

Anyway, it was easy when he came in. Using the bewitching curse, he could control an ordinary person for a short time without bloodshed, just like Kota's wife and children now. Lin Mo just said a word in their ears, and they watched TV obediently as if they were possessed.
