A Sorcerer’s Journey Chapter 525 - The Dreadlord XI

Chapter 525: The Dreadlord XI

Grimm became the center point of the storm in the entire Nightmare World.
Although there were six Dreadlords in the Nightmare World, only four Dreadlords actively presented themselves in public to build their forces. They were Nightmare Mist Dreadlord, Nightmare Mire Dreadlord, Nightmare Bug Dreadlord, and Withering Corruption Dreadlord. Countless followers had joined their path.
Deceitful Dreadlord and Stalker Dreadlord were no strangers in the Nightmare World, yet it had been too long since there was news of them.
These mysterious Dreadlords’ last appearance was during the Ancient ages, witnessed by a handful of the Nightmare World’s Horrifying Creatures. Their images were only the words described by Dreadlords in the past.
Wham! Another gigantic figure fell from the sky, shaking the earth with its enormous feet.
“Hahahaha, Dream Watcher, your mission is complete.”
Dreadlord Servants flooded into the scene one by one, surrounding Rage King, the First Servant of Nightmare Mire Dreadlord.
Rage King immediately summoned Dream Watcher King, the Third Servant of Nightmare Mire Dreadlord, to his side.
With at least fifty meters tall and a round belly, this Dreadlord Servant managed to change its appearance from an ordinary Dreadlord Servant, just like Grimm. He took the shape of an Orangutan king.
Three-eyed Dream Watcher King retreated his thirty-meter tall body behind Rage King.
Roar!
Rage King growled as its arms and feet were rooted firmly onto the ground, clearing Nightmare Mist in all directions, and rippling Nightmare Mire into rolling waves. Moonshaker King felt a dark shadow thrusting toward it, and the next thing he knew was a banging sound with his body lying a few hundred meters away.
Bam! Moonshaker King collapsed onto the ground.
“You dare…”
Moonshaker King could only grind its teeth. There was no strength left in him to stand up after that fatal blow.
Moonshaker King was strong enough to have an even fight with the Third Servant of Nightmare Mire Dreadlord. Unfortunately, it was not enough to face Rage King.
Such was the strength of Rage King.
Rage King was named the First Servant of Nightmare Mire Dreadlord. He possessed the highest Fright Energy reserve after a Nightmare World’s Dreadlord. If he were to master the Nightmare World’s law of Fear Energy, he would be a new Dreadlord!
Dreadlord Servants could only resist Dreadlords in low-level Nightmare Realms, yet Rage King could choose its own battlefield to fight Nightmare Mist Dreadlord!
Hence, Rage King was given the title of the First Dreadlord Servant of the Nightmare World.
The hundred-meter tall Wailing King laughed at what he saw. All the three strongest Dreadlord Servants of each Dreadlord had arrived at the scene, including Gemini King and Gluttony King.
Crunch, crunch, crunch.
Unlike Rage King, who chose to strike a killing blow on Moonshaker King, Gluttony King’s gigantic hand removed the Wailing Web on Gemini King and started to chew on the web.
Wailing King did not bother to make a new Wailing Web to shackle Gemini King.
Within its own Nightmare Realm, nobody could win in a fight with him, not even any of these First Dreadlord Servants!
For the same reason, the Great Nightmare Bug Dreadlord did not send his first servant, Deafening King, but chose to appear himself.
Behind these strongest Dreadlord Servants were a few Dreadlord Servants’ aides, followed by Dreadlord Servants too weak to have a place in ranks.
It would be preposterous for Grimm to think his Hunting Nightmare ability could be on par with any of these Nightmare Creatures in such a short period of time. His dream to outgrow the Dreadlords was shattered the moment these strong Dreadlord Servants appeared.
Grimm only hoped that the bloody full moon in the Nightmare World sky would fall, and the full black sun would rise as soon as possible.
Hours had passed, yet the surrounding Nightmare World still showed no signs of day and night alternation.
The gigantic ape stood fifty meters tall among the Dreadlord Servants, appearing only to be slightly weaker than the rest of the strongest Dreadlord Servants.
“You dare to defy the will of the great Nightmare Mist Dreadlord. You dare to stand in my way. You… want to start a new war in the Nightmare World?”
Blood rushed to fill the eyes of Gemini King’s master as he looked at its right arm, suffering extreme pain while standing majestically in his demonized form.
The connection between master and servant was as firm as father and son.
Rage King lifted its shoulder from the ground, revealing its big round belly. Its cruel intention flashed between its eyes.
Rage King growled, “Nightmare Mire Dreadlord is the most ancient Dreadlord in this Nightmare World, the guide of the Nightmare World, the hope of the Nightmare World! All we did was to save Nightmare Mist Dreadlord, to save the Nightmare World, and to stop the birth of the adjudication law!”
Wailing King wrapped its arm across its chest as it wailed, “The Nightmare World is restricted by those Sorcerers’ fairytale law. If Nightmare Mire Dreadlord’s adjudication law is created, we would be in chaos.”
Boom! Nightmare Mist Dreadlord’s support, Gluttony King, stood on his legs.
“The Nightmare World is left with a mere forty thousand years! Those evil Sorcerers are dragging our Nightmare World into oblivion! We cannot just stand here and die, blindly following the propaganda of Nightmare Mire Dreadlord would only lead to a destructive fate!”
As Gluttony King spoke, he opened his grip…
The Gluttonous Mouth on its palm spat out a depleted World-Core Fragment of the Sorcerers World!
Also known as a Sorcerer Essence.
“The Sorcerers World’s World-core is collapsing, and these evil Sorcerers are using the Nightmare World’s construct to create a Seven Color Seal to postpone the collapse of the World-Core. If we do not do anything and embrace the so-called fate, even if there is a day when the Nightmare World is completely separated from the Sorcerers World, our world would lose the ability to parasite other worlds. We will be returned to the Dream World and become a Spectral World just like a Dimensional Gap!”
Gluttony King yelled in madness.
Suddenly, Dream Watcher King stood out in the crowd!
Among the strongest in the Nightmare World, Dream Watcher King was the last who had the right to speak. Those Dreadlord Servants weaker than him had no right to speak.
“Twenty years ago, I followed the instructions from the great Nightmare Mire Dreadlord to prove that the adjudication law is already in effect. I was so close to success, now all thanks to this Fallen Sorcerer, he has destroyed my ten thousand years worth of effort! I spent ten thousand years going through countless endless dreams, and I was lucky to find one Black Sorcerer-Apprentice with a suitable Mental Strength of the Sorcerer’s WIll…”
Gritting his teeth, Dream Watcher King pointed at the giant ape with hatred.
“The adjudication law must be real. After so many Dreadlords’ rebirth, there was no news from all of them! The adjudication law must behave in the exact same way described by Nightmare Mire Dreadlord, using the Fallen from the Nightmare World to create a Nightmare Sorcerer in the Sorcerers World!”
Being surrounded by the Dreadlord Servants, Grimm realized that something was not right.
According to the time, the Nightmare World should now be in the middle of the day, the black sun should be hanging in the sky.
Yet the sky was still covered in a dark blanket. Nightmare Mist clouded the air, nullifying the rules of day and night.
Was this the power of Nightmare Mist Dreadlord?
Law alteration was just too horrifying!
Grimm was not disturbed by the hatred of Dream Watcher King. In every world that the Sorcerers conquered, there would be hatred from the native creatures. Why would Grimm be bothered by the hatred of a Nightmare Creature?
If it were true that the adjudication law was to create Nightmare Sorcerers, Grimm’s guess was that Solumn could be one of them!
Nightmare Sorcerer…
First, he had an Immortal Body, which was extremely vulnerable to Seal Sorcery.
Then it was the Bloodline Sorcery, it was actually borrowed from the Fallen in the Nightmare World. Those were the abilities they possessed in an Endless Material World before they withered into a Fallen?
Grimm recalled the details of Solumn’s ability. It shared the same effect and behavior with that of the Nightmare World law.
This information was not crucial at the moment. Grimm was more concerned about finding a loophole to prevent himself from becoming the scapegoat!
Time slipped by as the Nightmare Mist constricted on Grimm’s body became more substantial.
“Haha, hahaha…”
Suddenly, Gemini King smirked as his eyes gradually became even more maniacal.
Gemini King’s voice was sharp and husky as he said, “If we lose our hope of rebirth in the Nightmare World, then… What are we? A bunch of evolving clowns in the human dreams of the Sorcerers World?!”
