Day of Imprisonment

Qian Fatty, Ke Lan, and Wu Rui were all called back.

Although Lin Qiqi spoke lightly about using the Soul Link to connect to 【Nightmare】, Luo Xi knew it would be fraught with danger, so after they entered the dream, he would definitely need to find someone to keep an eye on them.

This way, at least he could prevent anyone from taking the opportunity to attack them.

“Brother Mao is in danger, right?” Wu Rui could tell, as Luo Xi rarely looked for helpers in the past.

Moreover, anyone with eyes could see the problem with Brother Mao's situation.

She curiously looked at Lin Qiqi. Her first impression of this woman was that she was very cool. Although she had short hair, she possessed a kind of heroic spirit rarely seen in women, but she was even taller, exuding a powerful confidence.

Standing with Luo Xi, at least their expressions were a perfect match.

“I will bring Brother Mao back!” Luo Xi couldn't say more, because Lin Qiqi probably knew more about Brother Mao's actual situation than he did now.

Wu Rui nodded without asking more questions. Guo Zening and the others naturally didn't have any objections either.

If they were told to guard, they would guard diligently.

In addition, Qian Fatty had previously participated in the Gluttony King Challenge, and he had actually succeeded. As Luo Xi had predicted, the reward card he received for winning the challenge contained 【Food】.

In this way, with the 【Gold Coins】 and 【Food】 obtained from the previous game challenge, it could be said that they had met the summoning criteria for a creature card to enter the field.

Luo Xi allocated the 【Gold Coins】 and 【Food】 to Guo Zening.

This way, in an emergency, Guo Zening could summon 【Battlefield Infantry】 into the scene.

“We have to hurry, his soul is almost gone!” Lin Qiqi urged at this moment.

She was a very casual person, even with a sense of laziness, so for her to urge so anxiously meant the situation was really dangerous.

“Let's start!” Luo Xi sat next to Brother Mao, while Lin Qiqi sat opposite him. The two held hands, and then Lin Qiqi reached out and pressed her hand on Brother Mao's head.

“There may be a feeling of weightlessness and other discomforts, bear with it!” She reminded him, and then immediately activated the Soul Peeker's ability.

Soul Link!

Luo Xi instantly felt like the ground beneath him had disappeared. It was indeed a feeling of weightlessness, but immediately after, it was like sinking into water, his skin feeling a stream-like coldness, even a stinging pain.

It was like falling into white vinegar, the corrosive sensation was very strong.

As for the surroundings, it was completely dark.

He couldn't hear any sound either, but soon, there were some rumbling noises, not noisy, but like they were coming from a very far away place, already at the end of their strength, about to dissipate.

Luo Xi wasn't panicked, firstly because this scene wasn't that dangerous, and secondly because he could feel that he was still holding Lin Qiqi's hand.

Obviously, everything was still under Lin Qiqi's control.

If someone with thalassophobia saw this scene, they might be scared to death on the spot.

The current scene completely satisfied all the elements and details that would cause fear for this condition.

A bottomless abyss, an unknown and huge outline, possibly some kind of deep-sea giant creature, or possibly something else…

Luo Xi's reaction was curiosity. He even tried to swim down, so he could sink faster, perhaps he could see what that huge outline below actually was.

In addition, Luo Xi estimated that he had fallen into the dream woven by the 【Nightmare】 card.

He had experienced a similar situation once before, but this one was much more interesting than the last time he looked in the mirror.

He guessed it wasn't his own nightmare.

It might be Brother Mao's, or more likely Lin Qiqi's.

“So, that girl Qiqi has megalophobia?” Luo Xi guessed.

Just as Luo Xi was pondering whether Lin Qiqi had megalophobia, the hand that had been holding his suddenly shrank and broke free from Luo Xi's palm.

The other party's movements were too fast, so fast that Luo Xi didn't have time to react, and the little hand escaped.

Luo Xi was stunned.

He reached out to grab it, but couldn't feel anything.

“Is this a normal situation or an abnormal situation?”

For a moment, Luo Xi couldn't figure it out, also because Lin Qiqi hadn't given any explanation beforehand.

Luo Xi didn't ask, so he didn't have a contingency plan when encountering a sudden situation.

After waiting for a few seconds, Luo Xi could confirm that this was an unexpected situation.

Because the surrounding water seemed to be flowing rapidly, even boiling. In addition, Luo Xi found that his sinking speed had increased, as if the buoyancy of the water was weakening.

The good thing was that he could finally see what was below.

It seemed to be a huge human face.

Ferocious, terrifying.

Normally, Luo Xi wouldn't be surprised by the size of an object, but this one was really big.

Just a face was bigger than a soccer field.

Above, it was also pitted and full of holes.

As a result, many humanoid things crawled out of those dense holes.

Each one was like a madman, swimming towards him with various bizarre strokes.

Like countless hideous tadpoles.

Giant objects, deep sea, densely packed strange figures (corresponding to trypophobia and the uncanny valley effect). These are all sources that can trigger human fear.

It was definitely a fear combo plus version, with more content at the same price.

In this situation, anyone would panic.

"Lin Qiqi!"

Seeing the densely packed, thousands of strange humanoid creatures swimming over, Luo Xi shouted.

The next moment, he felt as if someone had pulled him, and he sat down on the ground.

The deep sea, the giant creatures, and the countless bizarre humanoid monsters, all of them disappeared, as if they had never existed, but Luo Xi didn't leave the 【Nightmare】.

He found himself sitting on the ground, and in front of him was a mirror.

On the mirror, there was a lamp, dimly lit, with a yellowish tinge due to the oil stains and dust.

This time, there was another 'Luo Xi' outside the mirror.

That ordinary-looking, normal person was lowering his head and sighing.

Muttering, "What should I do?"

Luo Xi didn't disturb the other version of himself. He first looked back, everything around him was hidden in darkness, he didn't know how big this place was, nor what was hidden in the darkness.

Apart from the dim lamp in front of the mirror, there was no light source here.

"This is 'Luo Xi's' nightmare!"

Luo Xi had been here once, so he knew what this place was.

"The deep sea and the giant creatures just now were Lin Qiqi's nightmare. So, she really succeeded in connecting my nightmare with hers using soul link. What a powerful ability. Maybe in the future, she can use similar abilities to pull more people into the nightmare... But the premise is that she must become the master of the nightmare, instead of being controlled by the nightmare."

Luo Xi also sighed.

There must have been an accident before, which was when Lin Qiqi suddenly retracted her hand, causing him to sink rapidly.

Currently, this accident may indicate some unfavorable possibilities, but Luo Xi doesn't have any better solution at the moment.

Especially since he was pulled into the nightmare by Lin Qiqi.

In other words, if she doesn't wake up, he can forget about getting out of the nightmare.

"The danger she mentioned before should be referring to this!" Luo Xi also wanted to explore the effects of the 【Nightmare】 card, which was a numbered card, and what secrets the dream formed by the power of the card held.

Maybe there will be unexpected discoveries.

"Since Lin Qiqi can pull me in, then she should also be able to pull Mao Ge in, so according to the order of importance, we must first solve the problem on Mao Ge's side and stabilize Mao Ge's situation through the dream."

Luo Xi began to look for the exit of his dream.

But he soon found out that it was useless.

The range he could move in was probably limited to the area illuminated by this dim light. If he left here and entered the darkness, he would feel an extremely terrifying sense of stagnation, as if he had stepped into the mud full of insects.

Not only would it hinder his movement, but he would also be bitten by the insects hidden in the darkness, causing pain and itching all over his body.

So Luo Xi temporarily stopped exploring the darkness outside the light source.

Because he found a door.

Not here, but outside the mirror, behind the other 'Luo Xi'.

The distance was about five or six meters.

Luo Xi already knew that he was in the mirror now, and that the 'himself' outside was the main body of this nightmare, which he had already figured out from the first nightmare journey.

This doesn't mean that everything in the mirror is fake, at least not fake in relation to reality, because there is nothing real within the Day of Imprisonment.

Next, Luo Xi could try to find the door in the mirror according to the position of the door outside the mirror, and then see if he could open it. If he could, then what would be outside the door?

So Luo Xi immediately went to do it. He retreated according to the same angle and position. As expected, he entered the dark realm of the dream, enduring the stagnation, hindrance, and strange pain and itching, and finally touched the door.

He tried to open it.

It was very difficult. The handle of the door seemed to be connected to a spring weighing about a hundred kilograms, requiring tremendous force to turn. Moreover, even if it could be turned, pushing open this door, which probably weighed about two hundred kilograms, was definitely not something he could do alone.

Fortunately, at this time, several hands stretched out from the darkness to help Luo Xi turn the handle and slowly push the door open.

They were other 'Luo Xi's', that is, different personalities.

They had been hiding in the darkness.

And unlike Luo Xi's familiarity with them, these personalities didn't seem to be hostile to the current him.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have come to help.

Luo Xi had an unconfirmed guess as to the reason, which was that he was now in the mirror.

Then, it could be understood that he and these personalities were standing in the same camp. Even if there was a competitive relationship, it was still internal digestion. If each of them encountered problems, some warm-hearted personalities would still choose to help.

"So, essentially and subconsciously, I'm a pushover?" Luo Xi had such an idea after opening the door.

The next moment, he seemed to see something outside the door.

No, there was actually nothing outside the door, it was pitch black. When he reached out to touch it, he touched a hard barrier like rock.

Obviously, even if he opened this door in the mirror, he couldn't get out.
