After piercing Freddy's throat, Zhang Jie didn't give up. Because the Lord God's reminder had not yet arrived, he knew that Freddy was not completely dead, so he grabbed the demon's cervical spine, intending to tear it apart first. But at this moment, Freddy's figure disappeared without a trace after a blur.
After a moment of surprise, Zhang Jie calmly looked around, trying to find out the direction in which Freddy fled, but found that the surrounding scenery had undergone strange changes: except for the station building and the square, which remained intact, further away The location was shrouded in a thick gray fog; the other dead and injured people in the square, as well as the various objects left behind by the crowd when they fled, were also missing at this moment.
If the original scene was real enough to be fake and make people wonder whether it was a dream or reality, the current scene is so crude and clumsy that it is ridiculous, just like a game with only a few models loaded due to lag. A sudden realization flashed through Zhang Jie's mind: Although Freddy had escaped temporarily, he was probably still severely damaged and unprecedentedly weak at the moment, and could barely maintain the dream world.
"Okay...I admit that you are indeed very strong. You are so strong that I cannot defeat you in reality or in dreams. The blow just now almost made me confess here." As the air twisted, Frye Di's figure appeared on the roof of the station building. Its figure seemed to have shrunk a lot, and there was obvious fear in its voice: "But as the founder of this world, I know your physical condition clearly. This sudden power probably has limitations and costs, right? As long as you wait for a minute or two and wait until this power disappears, you may die from the backlash without me having to do anything."
After saying some cruel words, it ran into the station building. It was extremely rare for such a vicious person to choose to passively avoid fighting and delay time. It was obviously very afraid of Zhang Jie.

In the real world, Ye Zi has found her lost holy water and is crawling towards Freddy's bones. Although he only moved a dozen meters back and forth, for the seriously injured Ye Zi, it was no less difficult than running a marathon.
But when she was only a short distance away from the skeleton, Zhang Jie, who was standing beside the skeleton, was shaking like crazy and vomiting out blood.
"Is the gene lock backlash... Damn it, why didn't the leader take action?" Ye Zi knew something was wrong. She bit the tip of her tongue and mustered up all her strength to crawl to the skeleton. She grabbed Freddy's head with her right hand and opened the bottle of holy water with her left hand. Gai, chanting the words that were used to bury Freddy in the original plot: "ashes to ashes, dust to dust, may the spirit rest!" (Ashes to ashes, dust to dust, may the spirit rest!) !)
But the spilled holy water froze in mid-air. The leader finally arrived belatedly and stopped time in order to save Zhang Jie. But for Ye Zi, the timing of the leader's action was undoubtedly the worst, and this move actually saved Freddy in disguise.

"Members of the Central Continent Team who are undergoing the test. I am the leader of the Central Continent Team. In this team, you are the only one who is most suitable for the position of captain. After you complete my test, this horror movie world has ended. What follows is Your choice is whether to become the captain of the Central Continent Team. At that time, you will get some of the permissions of the 'Lord God' space and body repair and enhancement. Are you willing?"
In the dream world, a voice suddenly sounded in Zhang Jie's mind, just like the voice of the "Lord God".
The guideable person only stagnates time on the physical level, and the soul level is not affected, which allows the selected reincarnation team members to think and make choices freely. But for Zhang Jie, this is obviously the worst news: the dream world is formed based on his consciousness and Freddy's "power", which means that time in the dream world is still passing normally.
The severe pain from the gene lock's backlash was still coming in waves, and Zhang Jie's breathing and heartbeat became weaker and weaker. At this moment, there was no way for him to respond to the leader's inquiry.
"5, 4, 3, 2, 1. The team member did not make a choice. It is speculated that the consciousness was interfered by unknown factors. The default choice is consent."
"The position of captain of the Central Continent Team has been opened. The strength of unlocking the gene lock is reviewed. The basic strength is the first stage of unlocking the gene lock and the first level of evolution. The current strength is the second stage of unlocking the gene lock and the fusion begins."
After waiting for half a minute without receiving a response, the leader acquiesced to Zhang Jie's choice and began the fusion. But it was already a step too late. Without physical strength being strengthened by the Lord God, Zhang Jie was ultimately unable to withstand the backlash of the gene lock.

"Kill Freddy and get a B-level side plot, with 5,000 reward points."
"After obtaining the plot props and meme "dream", combined with the evil spirit or activated by special means, it will enter an active state."
Half asleep and half awake, the scene in front of Ye Zi changed rapidly. When she came back to her senses, she was already lying on a huge and empty platform. In the center of the platform was a huge ball of light, shining like the sun on the entire platform. There seemed to be a reminder from the Lord God in her ears, but Ye Zi, who was seriously injured and on the verge of death, had no time to think about it. She subconsciously shouted the order to repair her whole body.
Before he finished speaking, a bright and warm beam of light was projected from the main god, shrouding Ye Zi in it. As the injuries slowly healed, Ye Zi's thoughts gradually became clearer. Although after escaping from death, her tense nerves suddenly relaxed, and fatigue flooded into her mind, she still fought hard. Mentally, I thought about the Lord God’s previous reminder.
"I remember... the sprinkled holy water was still in mid-air, but the next second, I returned to the main god space. It seems that the leader finally took action, but why did I get Freddy's killing reward?" Ye Zi was stunned for a moment, and then looked at her right hand. Only then did she notice that Freddy's skull, which she had previously held in her hand, was actually brought back to the main god space by her.
"So that's it, it's a hit and miss... The function of Freddy's skull is similar to the Lich's phylactery, Voldemort's Horcrux, or the Lord of the Rings. This kind of soul-hiding item is brought back to the main god's space, and the contents of it are The soul will naturally be obliterated by the power of the Lord God. The reward points for the kill will be counted on the head of the reincarnation. This has been verified by Ying Kong at the end of the "Infinite Horror" Lord of the Rings volume. She will be the Supreme The Lord of the Rings brought back the main god’s space, thus obtaining Sauron’s kill reward.”
"Then...memes? I see, that makes sense."
In A Nightmare on Elm Street... the nightmare created by Freddy not only attacks the soul through dreams, but also blurs the boundary between dreams and reality, and achieves something that subverts common sense by turning dreams into "real existence": in the original film In the plot, the heroine Nancy once pulled Freddy's hat from the "dream" to reality. And Lao Li's injuries also confirmed this from the side: if it was a stab wound or suffocation, it could be explained by the injury in the soul being fed back to the body, but his injury in which flesh and blood disappeared out of thin air actually violated the Mass is conserved.
In Infinite Dawn, Chu Hao once mentioned, "There is something that directly ignores all physical laws, laws, science, and all axioms and data. Their formation is still a mystery, and their existence itself subverts all Known common sense, this kind of thing can directly reverse time and space regardless of the amount of energy itself, that is a meme."
"Let me speculate... Freddy himself is just a weak demon-level evil spirit, and he even has to rely on his own bones to survive. In the more than ten years since he became an evil spirit, even though he wanted to do evil very much, he suffered from the inability to do anything. Enough power. And before the plot of A Nightmare on Elm Street, it coincidentally merged with this dream meme and gained the power to play with nightmares."
"The spreadability of memes is an important feature of memes... The spreadability of dream memes is reflected in the fact that people who die from the memes will become Freddy's power, which was mentioned in the third part of the movie. As its power increases, it is estimated that the area it can affect will become wider and wider, eventually covering the world in a snowballing manner. When the targeted prey tries to escape from the affected area, it will be forcibly pulled into a dream. This should also be a simulation. One of the rules of cause.”
"After Freddy was killed, the meme attached to it went into a deep sleep, and I brought Freddy's skull back to the main god space."
"In terms of pure value...this thing may be more precious than the B-level branch line, but to me it is useless. The first is the activation method. God knows what the Lord God's so-called "special means" is. As for finding a villain, If the spirit comes to activate it, it would be like an old man drinking arsenic - he is too worried about his longevity; and even if I activate the meme, I can't ensure that I am a "user" of the meme and not an "infector"."
"This thing can only be sealed and handed over to Chu Xuan for study in the future, or when I am confident enough that even if something goes wrong, I can break it with force."
While Ye Zi was thinking, the light beam lowered by the Lord God slowly dissipated, which marked that her injuries had been completely repaired. She did not rush to choose a room, but slowly walked towards Zhang Jie, who was sitting in the square in a daze: there was no trauma on his body, but his eyes were extremely empty, and his face was full of pain, despair and disbelief.
(Looking at his reaction at the moment, he still couldn’t escape his fate after all... He died in the process of captain certification and became a semi-immortal existence like a semi-leader. Alas, is this the general trend?)
Ye Zi sighed softly in his heart, then straightened his clothes and gave a solemn salute to Zhang Jie: "If it weren't for your sacrifice of life to save me earlier, I would have died in Nightmare on Elm Street. This kindness will never be forgotten." .”
Zhang Jie, who was in a daze, was stunned for a few seconds before he realized what he was doing. He waved his hand towards Ye Zi and said, "No way, no way. In the world of horror movies, it's a shame. I also had a subconscious reaction."
After a few more pleasantries, seeing that Zhang Jie had no interest in talking at the moment, Ye Zi also wisely stopped talking, apologized, and walked towards the room on the edge of the square... She really needed a good rest.
After holding the doorknob and imagining her own small apartment, she looked back at Zhang Jie one last time, and an idea or goal flashed through her mind.
(As long as I can survive...I must find a way to save Zhang Jie in the future and repay this life-saving grace!)
