Dark Moon Era

Chapter 381: Shared Mission

Three Dream Coins as a reward was definitely a good sign.

The downside was that Tang Ling soon realized his strength could no longer recover by killing Fallen Knights after his 100th kill.

Therefore, he left the Fallen Knights to Fatty. Unless Fatty was in danger, he would not interfere.

Fortunately, as Fatty’s strength recovered, killing the Fallen Knights was no longer a difficult task, but the Demon Seeds jumping out of the dead bodies would startle him at times.

The Demon Seed was also Fatty’s main mission and Tang Ling actually wanted to give him the kill, but he still had to help whenever Fatty was in danger. Therefore, he killed 13 black-robed clergies and 9 Demon Seeds, making his kills surpass Fatty’s.

Through the frenzy killings, more than half of Tang Ling’s strength recovered.

There were only a few Fallen Knights left coming out the building and the black-robed clerics were nowhere to be found.

“Let’s go.” Fatty wiped the sweat off his face, feeling very proud of his kills.

Tang Ling simply stuffed more vicious beast meat into his mouth, munching as he muttered in a muffled voice, “We aren’t in a hurry.”

“Bro, what? Shouldn’t we get going? It’s been 20 minutes since we escaped.” Fatty was really nervous. He was not an idiot. After causing such a commotion, it ought to attract more reinforcements.

Even though he did not know why the reinforcements had yet to arrive, they would eventually come, would they not?

Besides, he was rendered speechless by Tang Ling’s eating. He started to doubt his friend’s identity as a person. Was he a humanoid beast? Fatty never saw him slowing down on the vicious beast meat!

Whenever he was idle, Tang Ling would stuff more vicious beast meat into his mouth. Did he assume that the vicious beast meat was candy?

Fatty had some himself, but he had his own unique method to mitigate the pain that came as a result of eating the vicious beast meat, and it worked for him even when his strength was taken away and he was turned into a normal man.

However, even if it did not, his stomach would burst from overeating! What was Tang Ling’s stomach made of?

Fatty had obvious doubts and questions about Tang Ling’s beastly digestive power. Of course, he had no idea that Tang Ling’s Perfect Genetic Chain allowed him to consume more energy than his peers.

On top of that, Tang Ling had a war seed in his heart, and the little seed was a huge energy consumer.

Tang Ling did not know that his consumption of vicious beast meat was considered deviant in Fatty’s eyes. He frowned slightly as he was thinking about other things.

The fire was burning strongly. He believed there were still survivors in the buildings. At least, there were still seven black-robed clergies missing and the number of Fallen Knights that he had killed did not add up, so there were at least 40 Fallen Knights unaccounted for.

If he left right away, the Dream Domain would calculate those knights and clergies that died in the fire into his kill count since he was the one responsible for the fire.

He could simply leave, but he had another theory in his mind.

Were the missing enemies really trapped in the fire or had they been captured or killed by the so-called devil in the building?

The devil had yet to show itself and Tang Ling wanted to secure this kill! It was not because of his greed or arrogance. He had strong confidence to support the risk he wanted to take.

“Big Bro, say something.” Fatty was nervous when Tang Ling remained quiet, so he could not help but urge his friend.

Tang Ling sized up his surroundings. Other than the burning building on the premises, there was nowhere else to hide. It was irrational for Fatty to stay. With that in mind, he asked Fatty, “Have you completed your main mission?”

Surprised, Fatty replied, “I’ve got two more to achieve 100%,”

“Do you have any other main missions?”

Fatty bolted up in confusion. “One main mission is deadly enough. Why would I want two of them?”

“I want to stay. Something big is going to happen here, but it won’t be suitable for you to stay,” Tang Ling said after some thoughts. He was being transparent. The upcoming situation was not something Fatty could handle, and staying back would not do him any good.

Fatty was moved by Tang Ling’s words because he knew he was useless.

Both back in reality or in Dream Domain, other people would usually criticize Fatty for being a burden and he too thickened up himself to accept the fact. He did not think it was inappropriate for others to call him useless.

However, Tang Ling did not do the same as he cared about Fatty’s emotions and his pride.

Being respected for the first time in his life felt different from usual.

Tang Ling did not have such extensive thoughts as he naturally explained the situation to Fatty.

It was suicidal for Fatty to stay behind since he was not strong enough. It had nothing to do with him being a burden to Tang Ling or not.

Fatty grew fonder of Tang Ling, so whatever Tang Ling said was soothing to his ears. “Bro, what should we do now?” After being touched by Tang Ling’s words, he believed it would be best for him to just listen to Tang Ling.

“There are two ways for you. When I killed the Demon Seed earlier, you said something about mission sharing. Can I assume that if I kill the target, it will be counted towards your mission as well?” Tang Ling raised an important question.

Fatty had no idea what Tang Ling was trying to do, but he had a feeling that the latter’s knowledge of the Dream Domain was a little lackluster, so he explained, “I guess you can say that as well. But according to the Dream Domain rules, sharing a mission is like sharing a physical item. If I give half of something to you, I’ll only get the other half.

“So, if I share my mission and you kill a Demon Seed, each of us will only get a 0.5 kill count. Yeah, that’s a better way to explain it.”

“Great. My first advice to you is to share your main mission with me. After that, run and find a safe place to hide. After I’m done, you’ll be able to get out. I still can help you with that.” Tang Ling did not sound like he was joking. After a quick calculation, Fatty did help a lot to burn down the building.

Fatty’s heart was filled with warmth. He had actually made it through past dreams as he had now, except when he did not run into other Dream Seeds.

However, even if he did not run into other Dream Seeds, the dream would not be that difficult either. He had tons of life-saving items, so he would still be able to make it out alive. Nonetheless, today was the first time someone else had suggested sharing his burden.

“My big brother! What about the second way?” Fatty was an oddball. When Tang Ling offered to help him complete his mission to achieve 100%, he stopped considering the offer immediately because he thought of the excitement from all the killing. Could he not achieve 100% by himself? He was a man and wanted to be a man for once.

“The second way is to work together again. You need to go out, find two horses and wait for me in a fixed location.”

“Sure!” Fatty agreed without a second thought as if he was the bravest man in the world.

Tang Ling found it amusing. He grabbed Fatty by the arm and said, “You can think about it first before giving me an answer. I’m a practical person. I don’t want to harm others and I won’t do things without benefits. I also don’t like to take advantage of people. I can’t let you risk it without a reason.

“But I just want to double confirm that if I share my mission and the difficulty of my mission exceeds your own, will you get benefits after completing it?”

Fatty blinked dully and said, “Bro, isn’t that common sense?”

Tang Ling blushed because he was not particularly knowledgeable in this part of the dream. He pretended to not hear the comment and continued, “I’m thinking that if you are okay with it, we can share one of our main missions with each other, but let me get this straight: my main mission isn’t as easy as yours even though I don’t know why. That’s the second way. You are free to choose.”

Fatty turned crimson. What else could it be? The Dream Domain must have looked down on him!

Back in the real world, people always laughed at him for taking a ‘vacation’ in the dream. Of course, he was nothing like the other disgustingly powerful Dream Seeds around him. Every time the others entered the Dream Domain, they had to face outrageous main missions.

With that in mind, he believed that Tang Ling’s missions were not as difficult as the others that he knew.

Fatty rapped his chest proudly and said, “There’s no need to think! I’ll go the second way!”

“Okay. Tell me, how do you share a mission?”

...

Two minutes later, the blazing fire had consumed half of the building. The rumbling din from the collapsing building frightened Fatty.

He was covered in sweat as he wrapped himself in the robe of a black-robed clergy and ran out of the yard cautiously. He had no other choice since only the voluminous robe of the black-robed clergy was big enough to cover his round body and make him less eye-catching.

Fatty got out of the premises soon enough. He selected a rather quiet alleyway that was spared from the commotion and exclaimed in his heart, ‘Who would have thought? Oh, who would have thought?’

He never would have thought the mission that Tang Ling shared with him was to survive for 24 hours.

Surviving for 24 hours in this chaotic situation? On top of that, they had caused some serious trouble and killed a bunch of knights and clergies from the Fallen Star Church. Tang Ling had even killed a white-robed apologist!

It was Fatty’s second entry in this particular dream. Aside from collecting information on his first entry, even before the second entry, given his father’s capability, he had collected a lot of top secrets in the world.

Based on his understanding of the Fallen Star Church, the church would not stop unless both he and Tang Ling were dead a hundred times.

What did it mean? It meant that Tang Ling was a disgustingly crazy person! Fatty had a feeling that Tang Ling’s main mission was just as difficult as the other disgustingly powerful people around him.

Poor me...

Fatty wanted to slap himself a million times. He just had to act brave and act righteously. He just had to be moved. Looking at the countdown timer in his head, Fatty really wanted to smash his head on the wall and die on the spot.

However, after the mission was shared, he could no longer go back on his word. All he could do was follow the crazy Tang Ling’s plan and search for two horses.

With that in mind, he reached the end of the alleyway and cautiously looked around.

Somehow, he had a feeling that even searching for two horses would be difficult from here on.
