Chapter 65: Chapter 65: Planting the Tree of Hunger

The meeting was set for dusk, but she only showed up after nightfall.

If nothing goes wrong... something probably already has.

Yang Qizhou muttered to himself.

The game continues.

"You activated the effect of ’Hidden God’s Clothes’..."

"You see Alice still in a state of ’half-dream, half-awake,’ leaning against a massive rock, looking around as if searching for your whereabouts."

"You are in a state of ’Hidden,’ and Alice has not detected your presence."

"She does not show surprise or anger at not seeing you."

"You hear a soft voice echoing in the dark, saying... Brave, upright, kind, and fearless explorer, I know you’re nearby. I’ve come as promised; now please reveal yourself."

"You remain cold and silent, without responding."

"You notice a look of remorse on Alice’s face as she says... The corruption of the Dream Monster has worsened. I am constantly tormented by its agonizing grip. I was delayed fighting against the Dream’s erosion, which caused my lateness."

"You smirk coldly."

"You have seen the evil side of this ’Old Gods Believer’ and know clearly that her apology and helplessness are entirely a facade. Showing up only after nightfall undoubtedly serves some unspeakable agenda."

"You don’t intend to tear down her façade."

"The ’Dream Realm’s Child’ still covets Fire Stealing Village and resides on the path leading to the ’Desecration Stone Plate.’ Only by leveraging Alice’s power to lure this horrifying monster to Fire Stealing Mountain can the threat be eliminated."

"You chuckle bitterly to yourself."

"You know she harbors ill intentions, yet you have no choice but to feign cooperation with her to achieve your goals. You’ve truly become the type of person you once despised."

"You still do not reveal yourself."

"The night belongs to the ’Lord of Night.’ As a believer in the ’Lord of Night,’ Alice could potentially wield some unpredictable and strange methods. You cannot afford to be careless."

"You deliberate for a moment."

"You decide to use the effect of the Shepherd Dog Farm Key, summoning a Gontine Hound, and command the imperceptible beast to move near Alice."

"You interfere with reality and exit the ’Hidden’ state."

"You activate the effect of ’Hidden God’s Clothes’ again and return to the ’Hidden’ state."

"Alice senses something and turns her gaze to the spot where you were previously concealed. You are not concerned about being discovered since you’ve already left that area."

"Alice notices the ’Gontine Hound.’

"Under the intimidation of the ’Old Gods Believer,’ the Gontine Hound dares not act out. It crouches on the ground, trembling violently."

"Alice smiles knowingly, seeing through the fact that the ’little dog’ was summoned by you and realizing you must be hiding nearby."

"You then hear Alice saying... I am willing to give up resistance and voluntarily embrace the corruption from the Dream Monster. Once that happens, it will break away from the dream layer and descend upon the Material World, at Fire Stealing Mountain."

"Alice then asks... Are you prepared to face the Dream Monster?"

"The Dream Monster exists within the Dream World and does not presently manifest in the real world?

"Her words make you think of something.

...

...

Fuck, another twist.

Yang Qizhou was caught off guard by the new narrative.

If the ’Dream Monster’ is active in the dream layer but has not appeared in the Material World, how can it reside on the path leading to the ’Desecration Stone Plate’?

Lena and Alice.

One of these two women must be lying, and the odds are it’s Lena.

The reason is simple—Alice, as an ’Old Gods Believer,’ is undeniably vile and manipulative, likely full of schemes throughout this collaboration. But regarding this matter, she lacks any motive to lie. Whether the ’Dream Monster’ is lured from the road to the Desecration Stone Plate to Fire Stealing Mountain or descends from the dream layer, the two scenarios make no difference.

But Lena is another story...

The blessing of the ’Ancient God’ at Fire Stealing Village is fading under the unknown threats of the wilderness. Danger lurks in every corner, and bad things have already started to happen. She urgently needs help to resolve the current crises.

Though the Game Character is nothing but mortal trash, it still traverses the wilderness where the unknown and mystery intertwine, terror and bizarre coalesce. This mortal uncovered the cause of Dark Mist Town’s destruction and forced the demise of two High-Position deities, demonstrating uncanny methods. It’s obvious that they are the kind of assistance Lena desperately needs.

Suddenly, all becomes clear.

"Fuck, I get it now."

"No wonder they call the ancient lands a large-scale werewolf-murder mystery. There’s no such thing as absolute lawful good; every NPC’s stance shifts according to circumstances."

"Indeed, in this Evil God-infested, bizarre-filled old world where fear and the unknown coexist, no one can be trusted."

"Otherwise, you might be sold out—and still find yourself grateful."

Yang Qizhou felt a chill as his goodwill toward Lena quickly diminished.

The story had reached a critical juncture. The ’Dream Realm’s Child’ and ’Old Gods Believer’ plotlines would soon come to fruition. Yang Qizhou focused intently, his finger continuing to tap the screen.

The text refreshed.

...

...

"But now is not the time to dwell on this. Terror prowls in the night, the ’Dream Monster’ is about to descend, and the ’Old Gods Believer’ Alice harbors sinister plots. These matters must be addressed first."

"You suppress wandering thoughts and focus your attention."

"You employ the Shepherd Dog Farm Key, commanding the Gontine Hound to nod its head."

"Alice responds with a smile."

"The plan begins."

"In the darkness, untouched by the light of the moon and stars, the scenery before you suddenly twists and warps, becoming surreal and dreamlike. Hidden behind the layers of veils overlapping the real world, an unnameable creature lets out a jubilant shriek."

"It is the ’Dream Realm’s Child,’ birthed from the Moonlight Ancient Holy Statue."

"Its presence floods the collective dream."

"It has caught the scent of the ’Lord of Night’ believer’s delectable flesh."

"It is breaching the boundary between the Dream and the Real, descending upon Fire Stealing Mountain."

"You observe as Alice’s expression turns unusually grotesque, shifting between twisted malice, sadistic smiles, agonized screams, and torment. It seems the Dream’s corruption subjects her to unbearable suffering."

"You smile knowingly, thinking ’The timing is perfect.’"

"You take out the Tree of Hunger and place it in the soil of Fire Stealing Mountain."

"You lose the ’Tree of Hunger’..."

"You see its roots spreading rapidly, its trunk growing swiftly, and its purple branches thickening visibly."

"You then notice."

"The already-descended ’Dream Realm’s Child’ seems to sense danger. Unnameable tremors wrack its otherworldly form."
