There were traces of curses everywhere. Zhang Mingli had not been idle while he was trapped inside Dream Break Town. He had been spreading curses through various methods. He was waiting for an opening.

“What is your plan?” The smile on Gao Ming’s face dwindled as he stared at Zhang Mingli.

“I admit I’m not your match. The resources at Dream Break Town can barely sustain one Unmentionable. You’ve taken over 70 percent of the dream. You are infinitely close to the unmentionable ghosts.” Zhang Mingli was not afraid of death. He didn’t submit after decades of torture by Immortal Pharma. He was a stubborn man. “I know you are different from the other testers sent in by Immortal Pharma. I admit defeat, but I hope you understand one thing.”

“Tell me.” Gao Ming scanned the curses. They were different from the curses in Han Hai. They were more evil and cunning. They were like a boiling sea of blood.

“The higher-ups at Immortal Pharma have lost their minds. They have no idea how scary Dream is! They are pushing this place to the cliff. It’ll soon fall into the abyss. Everyone here will be sacrificed!” Zhang Mingli was serious and sincere. He was not pleading for himself, “I don’t know where you stand, and I’m unfamiliar with your past. However, you carry the hope of a dead city, so I believe you can understand my perspective. If we don’t stop Immortal Pharma, Xin Lu will become the next city to be massacred.”

“Do you want me to help you?”

“I’ll prove it to you.” Zhang Mingli looked up at the God of Flesh and Blood, “At least before I can convince you, I hope you can retain neutrality.”

Gao Ming scratched his chin. Then, he removed the black band without hesitation and crushed it. This sudden action startled Zhang Mingli.

“I think you misunderstood me.” Gao Ming tossed the band away, “I accepted the request of the players from Perfect Life. The main reason I’m here is to save you.”

“Save me?” Zhang Mingli didn’t put his guard down. He was worried that Gao Ming was only tricking him to undo the curses. They hadn’t known each other for long, but on this one night, Gao Ming left a deep impression on Zhang Mingli. Cunning, cruel, despicable, wicked and calculative… None was a positive description.

“Teacher Zhang is gentle and kind. You carry your friends and Xin Lu in your heart. When the tragedy arrived, you sacrificed yourself to save the taboo game players. They are still worried about you.” Gao Ming wanted to befriend Zhang Mingli. The first thing he did after his body was completed was to save the testers trapped in the boulder. This showed how kind Zhang Mingli was.

Zhang Mingli’s face twitched. He became warier after he heard Gao Ming’s words. “I know the kind of person I am. There’s no need for you to mock me.”

Gao Ming didn’t waste his breath. He pointed at the forest outside Dream Break Town. The path outside of town became a large blood capillary that sent the blood to a specific location. Despite the distance of several thousand metres, the divine ghosts in Dream Break Town could detect a feeling of joy. The bloody leaves shuddered. A giant tree that radiated meat fragrance grew out of the ruins of the Xi Temple!

“What is that?” The Dream Priest couldn’t recognise the village anymore. He wanted to escape, but his legs were bound by the murky flood water. Zhang Ding smiled at the human skin the priest wore.

With the aid of Gao Ming and the God of Flesh and Blood, the deep-level nightmare stopped suppressing the flesh tree and gave it the reign to grow freely. Loud grumbles came from underground. The geography of Dream Break Town changed. As the giant tree expanded, Zhang Mingli noticed his influence on Dream Break Town decreasing further.

The canopy that represented fear covered up a quarter of the night sky. The roots dug deep into the underground river. This entity that was between a monster and a plant was always hungry. It even wanted to try the curses Zhang Mingli scattered on the outer walls.

“You have had enough.” Gao Ming lowered his palm. The canopy shook lightly. The leaves fell like a pouring rain as a memorial for the lives that had been lost.

The leaves piled up. A tear opened in an inconspicuous corner of the trunk. Several figures walked out. Most of them carried irreparable wounds. Some of them were invalid. However, their presence was stronger than that of the testers from Immortal Pharma.

“Brother Chong, I think we trusted Gao Ming too much.” The bearded man, Guan Li, offered. Beside him was a muscular bald guy and a fatty in a lot of armour. These three were the workers from Molten Fire Trash Management Company. They used to be Immortal Pharma’s internal security. After they were disposed of, they became horror game players like Brother Chong.

“The dresser is the core of the death building. Gao Ming’s ghost has attached himself to it. Before that ghost is vanquished, there’s no need to challenge Gao Ming.” The baldie’s name was Cao Lu. However, after he became a player, not many people remembered that name. In front of the three men was a thin man whose body was covered in bandages. Using a staff, he wobbled on the carpet of leaves. He looked at the large tree and sighed, “We are still too weak.”

“That’s right.” A harsh voice came from the tree hole. The players parted for a man. The man looked young and had a funny game ID, Donate the Class Teacher to the Tragedy. “If it’s a guarantee that we’ll become ghosts after we die, all of us will choose death. Who is willing to live like this?”

As the manager of the information exchange centre at the death building, the young man was incomprehensibly strong. This time, they discovered something wrong with the dresser. It was the young man who volunteered to lead the team in inspecting the other side of the dresser. Everyone was prepared before they departed. However, they were still shocked by what they saw once they crossed the threshold.

“Is this the brain realm game designed by Immortal Pharma?”

“They wanted to create an Unmentionable.” The young man studied the divine ghost in the middle of Dream Break Town, “The worst thing is they have succeeded.”

“That is not the worst because we’re going to experience something worse.” Brother Chong held the staff, and blood leaked out of his bandages. “The divine ghost is coming at us!”

The strength of the ghost was beyond their expectation. Before they could react, they were dragged into Gao Ming’s nightmare. They appeared in the middle of Dream Break Town, surrounded by red buildings.

“Do you believe me now?” Gao Ming gestured at the taboo game players who had exited the giant tree. He admired the great expressions on Zhang Mingli’s face.
