Chapter 461: Come, Let Sister Give You An Injection~
⇐ ⇒
"Ahhhhhh!" With a wild scream, S.K.Y.'s eyes snapped open, his body convulsing with hysteria. It was noon, and the bright sunlight slipped through the heavy curtains, casting a warm glow on his bed. Staring at the familiar ceiling and panting heavily, he gradually found his composure. His mind reeled from the nightmarish images of his dream, filled with terror and strangeness.
Reaching to the end table, he retrieved and donned his gold-rimmed glasses, then sat up, taking a deep breath to steady himself. He clutched his forehead, fear etched across his face, as he mumbled, "Why is the crown in the dream so similar to the crown of thorns that I got? What is the connection between the two?"
His mind was haunted by the dream's vivid imagery: the mysterious place, the self-immolating middle-aged man, the sinister child. It all sent chills down his spine.
"Why would I dream that? I'm sure I've never been to that place, and never met people like that..." The more he pondered, the greater his fear grew. He had always believed that dreams were a collection of memories, and that nothing unfamiliar would appear within them. Could it be the crown's influence? Or perhaps the game itself?
Driven by this thought, S.K.Y. grabbed his phone and frantically searched for information regarding dreams in [Saint Demon World] using a search engine. But his efforts were in vain; he found nothing. A chilling thought entered his mind: "Am I the only one dealing with this..."
He closed the webpage and leaned back on the bed, gazing at the ceiling. Resolving to avoid using the crown, at least temporarily, he whispered to himself, "Now that Taurus and I are high-level bureaucrats of the Jade Empire, we have many privileges in Jade City. The Guild is expanding quickly. I don't need to take risks anymore."
S.K.Y. then got out of bed and made his way to the washroom, unaware that his shadow held a pair of blood-red eyes that watched his every move!
Within the confines of the Jade Flower Garden, Yaeger arose from her bed, her gaze falling on the creature beneath her that resembled a worm. In reality, it was Vera 17, completely immobilized due to overexertion, lifeless like a deceased worm.
Turning away from the sight, Yaeger leaned against the bed and activated her aura, instantly forming a semitransparent barrier that clung to her skin. She recalled using this ability in the underground maze's site of heritage during her fight with Chris. He had caused his aura to self-destruct, and in a desperate attempt to survive, Yaeger had shielded herself with her fox-coat.
