A terrifying voice was coming from the mouths of those dryads.

"Xing Tianyu - you can't escape!" "Xing Tianyu - you have nowhere to escape!"

Xing Tianyu knew that it was not a voice from the dryads, but from the person controlling the dryads and corpse monsters, and the creator of this terrible plague, Sebastian Rellos. Since becoming a psychic detective, it was not the first time he had encountered such supernatural events, so despite facing a desperate situation, he did not despair, and the only way to turn defeat into victory was to kill the controller.

A corpse monster suddenly appeared on the road ahead, it was covered in pustules, some of which were already oozing with highly toxic green pus, and from his only remaining human appearance, it was easy to see that he had once been a farmer.

Xing Tianyu raised his gun and shot, bang bang bang, three shots, the corpse monster was shot with a splash of juice, however, this was not enough to kill it, only to make it stiffen briefly, but this is enough to live, Xing Tianyu is like a nimble civet cat, from the side of the corpse monster rushed past.

A door suddenly appeared in front of him, and this was it! He raised his hand and shot the lock of the door, kicked open the wooden door, and then rushed in.

Inside was a large hall, surrounded by dry corpses, corpse monsters, and a man in black robes sitting on a throne in the middle of the hall.

"Hahahahaha, you actually found your way here, but unfortunately you just fell from one realm of death to another," the black-robed man laughed coldly and stepped down from the throne, holding a scepter in his hand and a skeletal hand grasping a black skeleton head. The skeleton's eyes were emitting pitch-black flames, and it was obviously a powerful magic weapon.

"Tianyu, help me!"

A cry of alarm came from behind the black-robed monster, Xing Tianyu immediately recognized it, it was Evelyn, the most beautiful girl in the town, when he first came to this town to investigate the mysterious disappearance of townspeople, Evelyn once had a night with **, but now became the only survivor left in the town.

"Don't call out Evelyn, I purposely left you alive to let you see your boyfriend die in my hands, and then, you can become my queen, after all, in the middle of this new kingdom, as a king is needed a queen." Sebastian said, pointing at Xing Tianyu and yelling, "Kill this guy!" Those corpse monsters and dryads heard the order and surrounded towards Xing Tianyu in unison.

Xing Tianyu raised his gun, he only had two bullets left, he had to shoot.

With a clanging gunshot, the bullet made a hole in the black-robed man's chest, yet there was no blood flowing out, as if the flesh had dried up.

"So did you turn yourself into a dry corpse too?" Xing Tianyu asked coldly.

"Hahahaha, I told you, you're out of luck, you can't hurt me at all," Sebastian looked incredibly smug, Xing Tianyu looked at the revolver in his hand, there was still one last round of ammunition, and looked at the corpse monsters and dryads surrounding him, then he only had one last option left, he aimed the gun at his temple. Suddenly, a flash of light in his mind, no, he had another option, he suddenly opened his eyes, raised the pistol again and aimed at Sebastian, and then without hesitation pulled the trigger.

Bang! The gun went off.

Sebastian took a look at his body, there was no damage. "Haha, you missed! The last bullet was also wasted by you."

"No, I hit it," Xing Tianyu said confidently, and in the next second, he watched the corpse monsters and dryads around him, fall down like dominoes, one after another.

"This, this can't be," Sebastian instinctively looked at the scepter in his hand, the skeleton at the top of that staff, was shot out of a small hole, black flames completely drifted out from that small hole.

Losing this power, all the souls bound within the corpse will be free, that does not mean that they also -

Ah, with a miserable scream, a cloud of black smoke flew out from Sebastian's already decaying driven shell, coalesced into a human form in the air, and disappeared.

"Tianyu, thank goodness!" Evelyn ran over in surprise and joy, and immediately jumped into Xing Tianyu's arms, she took the initiative to offer a fragrant kiss, and the two embraced together, forgetting to kiss.

"It's okay Evelyn, it's all over," Xing Tianyu comforted the beauty in his arms.

"Ka!" A voice, suddenly and very untimely, rang out.

Everything around, suddenly completely frozen, even the beauty in his arms, also frozen in place, as if a statue.

"Good job mate, you acted so well," a fat man in a director's suit came from not far away, holding a cup of tea, if it is a senior Hollywood fans but it is not difficult to recognize, that person is Peter Jackson, once made the Lord of the Rings, King Kong, the Hobbit and a series of best-selling films of the famous director.

Of course, the person in front of him is not the real Peter Jackson, but Xing Tianyu used the nightmare space ability to conjure up, to help him arrange the plot of the virtual character, strictly speaking should be part of his subconscious.

And everything that happened before is naturally just a scene he simulated in the nightmare space.

"No need to compliment me, I know how my acting skills are, you just need to tell me how this plot is after shaving off the acting skills." Xing Tianyu smiled and said to the fat man in front of him.

"Very good mate, simply wonderful, I tell you, if I had the chance to make a movie, I would definitely make this story, it would definitely be a box office hit."

"Maybe." Xing Tianyu said non-committally, it had been three years since he obtained the Nightmare Lord's ability, and he was incomparably familiar with the Nightmare Lord's ability, knowing that many things he saw and heard in the nightmare space could not be taken seriously, so he was very clear that the person in front of him was not a real great director, but only a phantasmagoria of his subconscious mind, in other words, it was his subconscious mind that was telling him that he thought the story was good, and that was Already enough, "this scene do not clean up first, I may still need it later."

After saying that, Xing Tianyu closed his eyes, a few seconds later, he opened his eyes with a jerk, already woke up from the nightmare space, but in front of him was the white ceiling in the real room, Xing Tianyu stretched, sat up from the **, right next to his bed on the workbench, an open computer, Xing Tianyu wiggled the mouse, watched the screen gradually be lit up, showing a half-written document to.

Looking at his watch, it was after 4:00 p.m. Xing Tianyu made himself a cup of coffee, tried to remember his dream experience, and then started tapping on the keyboard to code, occasionally taking a sip of the coffee next to the computer, with the crackling sound of tapping on the keyboard, lines of characters appeared in the document.

He wrote like a fountain, or rather do not need to think about the plot, just the drama that happened in the nightmare space with the most simple and vivid writing on the line, so the words are typed very fast.

When the last ray of sunlight also disappeared outside the city landscape, Xing Tianyu finally stopped, it took more than two hours, he finally wrote the last 20,000 words of his novel, from beginning to end about once, Xing Tianyu nodded in satisfaction.

Thank God, after sleeping for more than a month, finally the book to sleep out, if you continue to sleep the old me to sleep out of the problem, this is now the editor side is fixed. Xing Tianyu thought. Mobile users please browse m. Read, better reading experience.
