Section 2120 Expenditure Act

In any case, if you want to enter the gate, you must contact the red light.

According to Reeves's original statement and their previous experience, once you enter the range of the red light, you will be immediately shrouded in nightmares. Everyone will experience different nightmares, and the nightmare will not stop until they are completely killed.

In this case, how to deal with the nightmare light?

"I will try again to see if I can block the light. If I fall into a nightmare, you will pull me out of the range of the red light." The tree spirit pondered for a moment and said to Angel.

Angel pondered for a moment and agreed.

At present, the red light is relatively stable, unlike the red light that Reeves encountered in the Star Pool Ruins, which kept emerging and chasing. In this relatively stable red light, if you want to test the characteristics of the red light, you must contact it in person, that is, the two of them must go in and experience it up close, while the other will watch from a distance and save people at any time.

Angel wanted to go by himself, but the tree spirit had already spoken, and there was a hint of excitement in the tree spirit's eyes, obviously full of anticipation for the "adventure" that was about to take shape.

So, Angel thought about it and agreed with the tree spirit's idea.

Although the tree spirit was eager to try and actively asked to explore the limits of the red light, he was not overwhelmed by the excitement of the adventure. He was very cautious and made two glowing leaves. In the event of an accident, the leaves could be transformed into a substitute to give him an extra layer of insurance.

After doing all this, the tree spirit took out a leather scroll emitting a gleaming water from the void, and gently tore it, and a complete mirror shield emerged around him.

This shield is a composite elemental magic, which Angel had never learned, and can block optical shocks in the physical sense.

After getting ready, the tree spirit nodded to Angel and walked to the end of the corridor.

Angel also followed the footsteps of the tree spirit and released his phantom limbs, letting the phantom limbs follow behind the tree spirit. Once the tree spirit fell into a nightmare, he would pull him out of the red light range.

One step, two steps.

The footsteps in the silent corridor seemed to match the rhythm of the heartbeat, making people inexplicably nervous.

As the tree spirit got closer to the door, the tense atmosphere also increased.

Finally, the tree spirit walked into the red light.

The moment the tree spirit stepped into the red light, Angel found something wrong, and he stopped without warning.

Because the tree spirit had its back to him, Angel subconsciously moved the phantom limbs around the tree spirit, wanting to see the tree spirit's expression from the perspective of the phantom limbs.

But at the moment the phantom limb entered the red light, Angel suddenly felt a change around him, the wall seemed to melt, and a heart-pounding dangerous omen came from behind the melted wall.

Feeling the changes in the walls on both sides, Angel almost immediately judged that he was in a nightmare.

Angell had not expected that even if it was just a phantom limb extending from energy, entering the red light range would drag his main body into the nightmare.

This kind of power simply does not follow the basic laws of energy!

The omen of danger became stronger and stronger, and Angell could already see a strange figure behind the melted wall.

Under this omen of death, Angell gritted his teeth and cut off the phantom limb that had been released earlier and entered the red light range, trying to escape the nightmare tracking.

At the moment when the phantom limb was cut off, the walls on both sides immediately returned to normal, and the previous premonition of danger disappeared.

Angell breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that he had made the right bet.

Although it was successful, Angell could not be happy. The range of nightmares was not based on the physical body at all. Even the extension of mental power or one's own energy would be dragged into the rhythm of nightmares.

This nightmare characteristic was beyond his imagination.

A lot of thoughts jumped out of Angell's mind in an instant, but now was not the time to think deeply. What was more important now was the safety of the tree spirit.

Angel looked into the distance, only to find that the tree spirit had left the red light range.

Angel's eyes lit up, thinking that the tree spirit had found a way to escape the red light, but after a closer look, he found that the two leaves surrounding the tree spirit had disappeared. It was obvious that the tree spirit escaped the red light by sacrificing its leaf substitute.

Moreover, both leaves disappeared, and it seemed that the tree spirit's substitute had died twice.

The tree spirit walked back to Angel's side with a dull face: "It failed. Whether it is the mirror shield that physically resists optical impact or the shield at the energy level, it cannot block the nightmare light. As long as you step into the range of light, all the cover will disappear, and the nightmare is pervasive."

The tree spirit sighed and looked at Angel: "I saw that your expression was very strange just now, what's wrong?"

Angel smiled bitterly and repeated the situation on his side.

"The phantom limb cannot enter the red light either. You can be dragged into the nightmare here. The effect of this nightmare light is simply illogical." The tree spirit was wondering why Angel didn't pull him out of the red light range, but he didn't expect that even Angel himself would be caught.

"If this is the case, it is difficult to achieve 'one person enters it and the other person is ready to rescue'. Unless, you pull people out through non-contact means."

Angel also understood what the tree spirit meant by "non-contact means", which was nothing more than magnetism, gravity or wind suction... etc., which could pull the tree spirit out of the red light range from a distance.

But it is meaningless to discuss non-contact means now. The most important thing now is how to deal with the nightmare light.

But after thinking for a long time, they didn't come up with an effective method.

After a moment of silence, Angel asked: "Master Tree Spirit, can you tell me about the situation you encountered after entering the light range?"

The tree spirit nodded and recounted what he had just experienced.

He encountered two dangers. The first time was when his feet turned into a siphonic abyss, and the tree spirit made the substitute fall into the abyss and die; the second time, the surrounding space collapsed, and with no escape, the tree spirit The spirit once again sacrificed the substitute.

Angel: "The current known information is that once the nightmare determines that you are dead, even if the substitute dies on your behalf, you will temporarily leave the nightmare."

The tree spirit nodded: "Yes, but the time to leave is only about two seconds. If you are still within the light range, you will be dragged into the nightmare again."

The tree spirit never left the light range before, and after the first nightmare ended, it was dragged into the second nightmare.

"Although it only lasts two seconds, maybe this can be used?" Angel thought.

The tree spirit is naturally not stupid. When Angel said this, he probably understood what Angel meant: "You want to say, use a large number of substitutes to stack up the time for free movement?"

Angel nodded, because of the special ability of the tree spirit, he could try this special operation.

The tree spirit thought for a while: "The leaf substitute consumes the energy of the clone. The limit of the number of leaf substitutes that my clone can create at the same time is five. In other words, I can buy up to ten seconds."

"Ten seconds is not long, but it should be enough to take a look at the situation after entering the door. Maybe you can also find the source of the nightmare light..."

The tree spirit muttered for a moment and nodded to Angel: "I think you can give it a try. Anyway, even if the energy is gone, it can be quickly replenished after returning to the original body."

Currently there is no other solution but this pure consumption method.

The tree spirit did what he said and quickly produced five leaves. He wore these leaves into a leaf necklace and wore it around his neck.

Angel arranged a force field outside the red light range. As long as the tree spirit comes out of the gate, it can be quickly sucked out of the light range by the force field.

After the arrangement was complete, the tree spirit nodded to Angel and walked forward with excitement.

When the tree spirit stepped into the light range, its footsteps immediately stopped, obviously being pulled into the nightmare again. However, as the five leaves on the necklace turned into four, the tree spirit regained its sanity.

Without any hesitation, the tree spirit rushed into the door quickly.

Soon, the figure of the tree spirit disappeared in the red light behind the door...

Angel looked at the end of the corridor from a distance, silently counting down to 10 in his heart, waiting for the return of the tree spirit.

"Ten, nine...six, five..."

When Angel counted down to 2, according to previous inferences, the tree spirit should be coming back. But what surprised Angel was,

Still no tree spirit appeared at the door.

"Two, one..."

When the countdown reached 1, the door was still empty.

"Zero." Ten seconds passed, and the tree spirit did not return as scheduled.

Angel closed his eyes and took a deep breath. There was no doubt that something unexpected happened to the tree spirit in the room. Otherwise, there would definitely be no message.

Angel waited for another five minutes, but still did not see the tree spirit.

At this time, Angel looked at the door at the end of the bright red corridor in the distance. It seemed to have turned into the bloody mouth of a ferocious monster, grinning at him and making a silent mockery.

Angel turned around with a gloomy expression and returned to his original position in the corridor.

He planned to wait here for the return of the tree spirit.

It was certain that the tree spirit's clone must have had an accident. It won't be long before the tree spirit will definitely send a second clone.

By then, you should know what happened to the tree spirit in the room, and why it didn't come out in time?

While waiting for the tree spirit to return, Angel was also quietly meditating. At present, it seems that some accidents have occurred due to the consumption of the tree spirit's substitute. Angel wants to find other ways to solve the nightmare light.

Nowadays, the light of nightmare is very powerful and almost unsolvable.

This is not empty talk. Reeves also said at the beginning that there is no way to break the nightmare light.

But what Angel can be sure of is that the nightmare light is definitely not unsolvable. Because the creatures in the nightmare world under the ruins of the star pool have begun to make use of the light of nightmare.

According to his understanding, the reason why Minister Nuka chose to carry out the Xinai descent in the ruins of the Star Pond was because there was the light of nightmare there. Later, Angel also learned from Gentleman Fei that the main ingredient of the source of chaos in the power furnace he refined was the light of nightmare.

It can be seen that the light of nightmare is not a threat to the creatures in the nightmare world, but is a good thing.

Moreover, they must have mastered the method of using and manipulating the nightmare light.

When Angel was in the Star Pond Ruins, he never thought that he would face the Nightmare Light, nor did he ask how to control the Nightmare Light, but now he felt very powerless.
