Chapter 187: Chapter 178 Gentle, is a Lie (Extra Chapter for Votes)

"Gentleness is a lie. So is happiness!"

The Liar Demon said.

He spread his arms, showcasing unprecedented power.

A black sea of disaster, the unknown, and fear surged and roared outside the buildings.

The explosions of whistling shells, mixed with the shouts and killings of the Netherworld Pirates, made the entire Harbor City resemble a tableau of Purgatory.

Yet all of this was merely to turn this vast city into a farm for harvesting the Power of Lies.

The rolling power, though not as grand as his peak,

gave him the ability to sit back at the card table in a short time.

"Truly terrifying, Mr. Wright."

Though the Liar Demon held the advantage, he still watched the Fairy Town, competing for power with the Gentle Land, with trepidation.

"In a short time, to create such a strong and perfect dream realm.

Did you guess that I had this Gentle Land?"

Lette laughed heartily: "Haha, didn’t expect that, did you?"

The Liar Demon was taken aback at first, then laughed as well.

"Why, Mr. Wright? I am the demon of lies. I can tell immediately if you’re lying."

"I understand you’ll know, but whether I lie or not depends on my mood!"

Energy continued to gather, as the Liar Demon had meticulously cultivated for a month.

He caused a large amount of the bizarre, with wave after wave of attacks and inexplicable dense fog, to create a psychological implication within all the residents of Harbor City.

Finally, at the last moment, he fully triggered it.

Even though most of the residents had gradually left, this once prosperous city still housed tens of thousands of people.

If the Power of Lies accumulated by tens of thousands over a month were all absorbed by the Liar Demon, he would become very troublesome!

Fortunately, the appearance of Fairy Town snatched away a significant share of the Power of Lies from the Gentle Land.

Just as the Liar Demon said, Lette did not predict he had such a card in hand.

Though careful, he was not capable of foreseeing the future.

He merely noticed that the entire Harbor City, though not yet completely dragged into the dream realm, had parts that had become vague and loose after more than a month of erosion.

This! There’s a fair amount of energy too!

No matter how small the mosquito, it’s still meat!

Instead of benefiting the Liar Demon, why not harvest it himself?

Lette believed he should maximize the benefits of this charitable behavior!

Hence, he let Alice use her Witch Power to create Fairy Town.

It was this opportunistic, take-no-less attitude, leaving nothing unclaimed that prevented the situation from becoming worse.

"Ah, humanity, deceitful lies are always exposed, but kind lies stand firm and long-lasting.

And those enveloped by lies, when discovering the truth, will not only refrain from exposing it but will even voluntarily defend it!

That’s why, I’m fond of humanity!"

The Liar Demon laughed arrogantly: "If not for them, I couldn’t have created such false gentleness and happiness.

Nor could I savor such sweet and rich lies.

Unfortunately, though the city is large and populous, the time was too short.

Yet, it’s enough to remove a few from the game!"

The Liar Demon made a cutting gesture with his hand, and the satiated Gentle Land launched an offensive.

In the recent power struggle, nearly seventy percent of power was claimed by the Gentle Land.

No matter how cleverly designed Fairy Town was, or how extraordinary the Witch Power, its construction time was too short, and it wasn’t perfected enough to contend with the Gentle Land.

Not to mention, the whole setup was custom-made by the Liar Demon for the Gentle Land.

Fairy Town was not fully compatible, claiming thirty percent was already an effort.

Screech!

Lette, manipulating the Mirage along with Alice steering Fairy Town, resisted the encroachment of the Gentle Land.

Large areas were seized, with the reliable grocery store becoming the focus of contention between the two sides.

Alice, unlike Lette, could only exert enough combat power to rival the Liar Demon within the dream realm.

If the grocery store fell, once the Liar Demon dissolved the dream realm in the area, returning the surrounding to reality, Alice would be completely out of the game.

Then, Lette would have to face the Liar Demon alone.

The entire Harbor Town would once again fall into the hands of the Liar Demon.

In such a situation, the Gentle Land, having absorbed a vast amount of energy, would have the ability to drag Harbor City into the Gap of Dreams.

At that time, with tens of thousands of people falling from reality into the dream realm, the enormous energy outburst would be the most formidable blow for the Liar Demon’s true form to break the seal at the sea bottom!

If his true form appeared, destroying him would come at an incalculable cost!

The seeming battle over a small grocery store was the first piece of a domino that could trigger a terrifying chain reaction!

Once it fell, it would set off an irreversible course, culminating in a resounding collapse of the last massive piece!

Lette and Alice, aware of this, battled for control using the Mirage and Fairy Town against Gentle Land.

Buzz!

The powers of the three dream realms entangled, neutralized, and pushed against each other, forming a small blank dream realm around the grocery store.

"Lilith!"

Upon seeing the fourth dream realm appear, Lette immediately called for Lilith to take over the blank dream realm.

The three now each maintained their dream realms, creating a sort of tripartite balance.

No one had the ability to deal with the blank dream realm.

Thus, they had to hope for Lilith’s aid.

"No! I cannot do it!"

But Lilith quickly responded: "This dream realm contains plenty of positive emotions, which completely conflict with me.

I can’t control it..."

Lilith gritted her teeth, unable to control the blank dream realm or use her power.

Two opposing forces clashing might cause the blank dream realm to collapse.

The grocery store would suffer; even if Alice escaped, she might be temporarily unable to control Fairy Town!

"Hahaha!"

The Liar Demon laughed wildly: "How ironic indeed. The beauty of dreams becomes the last straw that breaks the camel’s back.

So be it, let these fools remain immersed in their false dreams, forever entranced!

Sweet lies! Like sugar-coating over poison!

Let the cold truth melt away in this Gentle Land!"

The Liar Demon attached the Fish Bone Sacrificial Knife to his waist while tossing the rusty pirate scimitar to the murderer within his dream realm, bestowing him powerful and abundant strength.

"Go, take care of that girl!"

The murderer grinned cruelly, appearing on the edge of the Gentle Land in an instant, successfully entering the blank dream realm.

As soon as he landed, he surged with murderous intent straight to Alice’s room!

In such a critical moment, Lette coldly sneered.

"Ha! Sorry, I’m from the Capsule Faction! By the way, since I was a kid, I would sip a taste before drinking Chinese medicine!

Emily!"

Bang!

The murderer was blasted and the door was smashed by a wild Emily standing at the entrance, her aura fluctuating uncertainly.

She raised a crowbar, pointing it at the murderer obliquely.

"Hey, stay away from my adorable sister."
