Nightmare City.
"here it is?"
Gu Yuan looked at himself in surprise. His body was a little unreal, looking like a ghost. It was a bit like a dream.
The surrounding environment was a little dark, and there seemed to be no light in the world, but there seemed to be countless eyes watching him in the darkness. This feeling was very dangerous.
He has long memorized the camouflage technique, but he is currently unable to master it. The most critical part of the camouflage technique is not to memorize it, but to fix the spacing between the techniques.
The difficulty of the camouflage technique is no less than pulling out a nano chip with bare hands. The principles are clear, but it is very difficult to do it directly.
Based on his understanding of the camouflage technique, it is no problem to use the camouflage technique reluctantly now. However, due to the degree of precision, the camouflage technique can only last for a very short time before automatically dissipating.
And what he has to do next is to maintain the camouflage technique for as long as possible.
"This is the City of Nightmares, my dear guest."
A dwarf in the shape of a goblin emerged from a dark corner. Just the first sight made Gu Yuan feel wary.
Because the eyes of the dwarf in front of him revealed cunning and cunning, and he looked at him like he was looking at a big fat sheep.
"Who are you?"
Gu Yuan asked softly. He wanted to know how this place allowed him to learn this disguise technique in half a day.
His intuition told him that he had been cheated, but he had come and what he had to do had to be done.
"Oh, my dear friend, you can call me Caesar, I am a goblin merchant."
With that said, Caesar summoned a wooden cabinet. There were many strange objects in the cabinet, and various squirming organs made Gu Yuan narrow his eyes slightly.
"It's not easy to live in the Nightmare City. After the novice protection period, it will become extremely dangerous. Sir, you may need some preparations for emergencies."
"Novice protection period? I don't need it."
Gu Yuan was very confident about his own strength. He had just sensed that his peak Nine-Star Fighting Saint strength was still there.
"Oh, then I wish you good luck."
Caesar glanced at the place where footsteps were heard in the distance, and then quickly turned into a mouse and fled, not forgetting to say something back.
"My friend, you must not be caught by the city guards and used as snacks."
Gu Yuan's expression condensed. There was too little information for him to deduce much information about Nightmare City, but one thing he could tell was that this was a world where people cannibalize people.
Soon a group of mounted city guards rushed over. The city guards all wore standard armor, with only two eye holes burning with blue flames exposed.
Just watching Gu Yuan quietly like this, Gu Yuan felt the pressure. The strength of these city guards was extraordinary.
Gu Yuan's fighting spirit turned around, and he was always ready to take action. After a long silence, the leading city guard spoke first.
"Are you Gu Yuan?"
Gu Yuan nodded. He didn't quite understand what the Red Queen meant by sending him here just to learn a disguise technique?
But one thing is almost certain. This nightmare city is more dangerous than he imagined. If you don't pay attention, you may lose your life.
"Martial arts are completely prohibited in Nightmare City. If you take action, you will be directly out of the novice protection period."
A thick and hoarse voice sounded, and Gu Yuanwenzhi's expression turned solemn: "Can you briefly explain the rules of Nightmare City?"
Being able to chat meant that they were not enemies. The fighting spirit in Gu Yuan slowly dissipated, but he had no intention of getting closer.
"Do whatever you can to survive in the Nightmare City. This is the rule. Things hidden in the dark will be active at night. Even if we are notified, if you provoke those things, we will not be able to save you."
"Then how do you survive here?"
Gu Yuan's feeling of being cheated became more and more obvious, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. As expected, there is no shortcut to practice. If you want to learn it in half a day, you have to have enough pressure.
And this Nightmare City should be the strong pressure put on him by the Red Queen. Gu Yuan still approves of this teaching method.
"Everyone will have 1 to 1,000 health points when they first arrive in Nightmare City. Any transactions involving eating and lodging here will transfer health points. Only by staying in a hotel can you avoid the attacks of monsters in the darkness of Nightmare City."
"life value?"
Gu Yuan frowned slightly, what is this?
"The health value is your life. When it reaches zero, your life will also come to an end."
"Then how can I leave here?" Hearing this, Gu Yuan's face became slightly solemn. Sure enough, things are not that simple.
"Multiply your initial health points by ten and hand them over to the city guard to get the customs clearance documents. Only with the customs clearance documents can you leave the Nightmare City, otherwise this will be your permanent destination."
"Remember that the Nightmare City prohibits martial arts. Once you use force, you will be marked by the Nightmare City. At that time, the city guards will hunt you down during the day. If you want to clear your name, you need to hand over twice your initial health."
"enough!"
A city guard at the end of the team roared, and along with the city guard's words, inexplicable black needles and threads emerged from the mouths of all the city guards, sewing the mouths of all the city guards. The black blood dropped, and the city guards were silent. hair.
They only received orders from above during this trip to provide some guidance to Gu Yuan. It was enough to tell Gu Yuan this. If they spoke too much, they would be severely punished.
When the city guard left, he left behind two things.
One is a badge with the number three on it, and the other is a map of this area.
The badge is a countdown to the novice protection period, and the map is just a rough map.
Gu Yuan glanced at the badge. On the front was a countdown to the three-day novice protection period, and on the back was his 1,000 health points.
In other words, he needs to gain 10,000 health points to leave here. It is said to be 10,000 points, but it should actually be more than 10,000 points, because the health points here are still lives even if they are traded in currency.
The city guard did not say how to obtain health points in the Nightmare City, but Gu Yuan understood that it was very difficult to obtain health points. To take other people's health points was to take other people's lives.
But there is also an advantage, that is, because of the city guard's blacklist, very few people will choose to use force.
But now the question arises, how can they survive the dangerous period of the night without using force?
Staying in a hotel? It may seem nice to live in a hotel with nothing to gain, but in fact it is a dead end.
Without a fixed income and life points, who here would be willing to stay in a hotel? But if you don't stay in a hotel, you will be stared at by those things at night, which requires the use of camouflage.
After taking a look at the time on the badge, Gu Yuan quickly walked towards a nearby hotel. Night was about to fall.
Gu Yuan now understood what the Red Queen meant when he said half a day was enough. Because this was a dream, the flow of time must be different from the outside world. By the time he returned, half a day would have passed in the real world.
Inexplicably, Gu Yuan felt that his son-in-law was a cheat. Is there any son-in-law who could cheat his father-in-law so much?
No wonder Li Anle had that look on his face before. Thinking of this, Gu Yuan sighed helplessly in his heart. He would make peace with it as it came. Next, he must master the camouflage technique as soon as possible.
Otherwise, it would probably not be easy to get out of the Nightmare City, and mastering the camouflage technique should be the key to his survival in the dark night.
The camouflage technique can not only disguise one's own level of strength, but also disguise oneself as other people, including those monsters in the night. However, if one's poor skills are discovered, then his good days will come to an end.
Thinking of this, Gu Yuan quickly walked towards the hotel.
Although he didn't want to do this, he had to stay in the hotel during the initial period to obtain as much information about the Nightmare City as possible.
…
The flow of time in Nightmare City is very slow, but the flow of time in the dojo is very normal.
Xun'er didn't have any worries when he learned that his father made an exception and went to the dojo to practice. On the contrary, he went to the dojo with great interest to watch his father practice.
"You can learn the disguise technique just by sleeping like this for half a day?"
Xun'er glanced at Gu Yuan's body curiously. On the surface, it looked like he was sleeping, and what happened in the dream did not reflect reality.
"Well, but Xun'er, when your father wakes up, you must save me."
Looking at Li Anle's hopeful look, a blush rose on Xun'er's face. Beauty is in the eye of a lover, and Li Anle's figure was like this in her eyes.
Gu Xun'er discovered a very serious problem, that is, she, like other senior sisters, had zero resistance to Li Anle. Li Anle had just made a request, and she almost agreed without hesitation.
Even if it is a ridiculous request, they will want to agree and be very happy.
"Did you have a conflict with my father?"
Xun'er was a little confused, but she didn't agree immediately. She had to find out the inside story.
"Well, it's not a contradiction. I'm doing it for your father's good. Isn't he planning to break through Dou Di..."
Li Anle told the story of sending Gu Yuan to the Nightmare City for training. Learning disguise techniques was not the purpose. The purpose was to pass the trial in the Nightmare City so that Gu Yuan could reduce the risk when he breaks through the Dou Emperor.
Gu Xun'er looked a little helpless, whether it was Li Anle sending her father to the Nightmare City for a trial, or teaching him how to disguise.
Xun'er didn't see anything else from it. He only saw that Li Anle didn't want to take action against the Soul Clan, so he let his father-in-law Gu Yuanding take over.
It can only be said that this is Li Anle's consistent style.
"Don't worry, dad is not an unreasonable person."
"That's good."
Li Anle breathed a sigh of relief. With the assurance of his left ear, Li Anle felt much more at ease.
"By the way, how many years will Dad stay in Nightmare City?"
Although it was a trial to securely break through the Dou Emperor, if it took too long, Xun'er estimated that Li Anle would definitely not die, but he would have to be beaten to some extent.
"Within a hundred years, his talent is equally strong."
Hearing this, Xun'er looked at Li Anle with some pity: "Husband, let me prepare healing medicine for you first."
"No!"
