Chapter 117: A Strange Dream

Ling Pingan entered a sweet dream.

In the dream, it was a beautiful and wonderful world of the ocean.

Countless giant squid’s glowing organs illuminated the pitch-black ocean floor, making it seem as if it was daytime.

A massive underwater city was quietly sleeping in the depths of the ocean.

“The Atlantis mentioned in the Legends of Ancient Qin?” Ling Pingan thought in his dream.

The sleeping underwater city awakened at the same time as his thoughts.

Snake-shaped monsters with nine prayed and offered sacrifices in the shrine surrounded by the city.

“We call upon your power!” An elderly voice said, “Merciful Savior, creator of all things, incarnation, and representative of Buddha!”

Its nine heads bowed down one after another, praying to the statue enshrined in the temple in the deep sea.

“We look forward to your arrival!” On the nine heads of the old monster, pairs of turbid eyes recited the ancient prayer in the sea, “For this, we, humble believers, offer sacrifices to you!”

The huge creature slowly crawled into the underwater city.

They carried a mermaid that was imprisoned by a bubble-like thing to the statue of the temple.

The mermaid cried out in fear.

However, the monsters ignored her cries and carried the bubble to the statue of the temple.

Ling Pingan looked closer at the bubble curiously.

He found that the mermaid that was bound by the bubble was almost the same as the mermaid in the movies in the Land of Qin he saw when he was young.

It had fair skin, long golden hair, and a well-figured body. Its snow-white skin was faintly discernible between its hair, and a flexible fishtail hung behind it.

The mermaid’s face was filled with terror, and tears fell from her eyes.

That was because she saw the nine-headed monster around her taking out blades forged from seashells.

Obviously, these monsters were planning a blood sacrifice.

“This is a terrible custom!” Ling Pingan complained, “How can an intelligent creature be used as a sacrifice?!”

The old nine-headed monster seemed to have noticed something when he thought of that.

It raised its nine heads and said joyfully, “Great God, the Great savior has arrived!”

It looked at the mermaid, who was so scared that she was about to faint.

The eyes on the nine heads looked as if they had seen a treasure.

“It has been chosen by God!”

“It is the holy maiden of God!”

Therefore, the nine-headed monsters who had planned to slaughter the mermaid immediately released the mermaid in a flurry. Then, they lifted it and sent it to the inner part of the temple, where the statue of their God was worshipped.

The mermaid was a little frightened.

However, when it saw the statue, it seemed to understand something.

Its golden hair started to drift back automatically, and the seawater surged onto its body. Pieces of coral turned into armor and covered it automatically.

Spots of light fell from the statue and gathered into a weapon.

The mermaid took the weapon. It was a weapon that looked like a monk’s staff.

“Buddha is merciful!” The mermaid chanted the mantra.

“Buddha is merciful!” The mantra reverberated throughout the entire underwater city.

At this moment, Ling Pingan saw the statue of the god worshiped in the temple.

A strong-built monk was wearing a robe. His face was full of muscles, and he held a monk’s staff.

Who else could it be other than his character, ‘Monk Fa Hai’?

That made Ling Pingan think of the hint he had received in the game: You have reincarnated the ‘Enslaved Hydra’. You have obtained 2,000 nightmare points. You have obtained the worship of the Hydra clan. From now on, all worlds that contain Hydra will have a certain probability to have your holy image and legend appear.

So…

“I’ve played too many games, so I am dreaming about the game even at night?” He mocked himself.

With that thought, he woke up.

When he opened his eyes, it was already morning outside, and the sun was almost at its peak.

He took out his phone and looked. It was ten o’clock!

He jumped up immediately.

“Oversleeping isn’t good! Oversleeping isn’t good!” Ling Pingan said, “I shouldn’t have played games yesterday!”

“If this continues, when can I finish the beginning of my new book?”

… … … ..

In the inner world.

Dream Worlds settled in the depths of this world.

The tall and strong-built monk walked between the edges and crevices of these dream worlds.

The Buddhist staff in his hand glowed faintly, illuminating these worlds.

Suddenly, he turned his head and, through countless times and worlds, saw an entire planet covered in seawater.

That was the world of Hydra and the mermaid.

It was also the place where Dagon and Hydra slept.

Ghroth visited this world about five million years ago.

The joy of the celestial bodies awakened the lower-class old rulers, who slept in the deepest part of this world.

They set off a terrifying tsunami and engulfed every piece of land in this world.

All life in this world, after witnessing the true appearance of Dagon and Hydra, went into a crazy distortion.

Five million years later, the mermaids and Hydra were evolved.

“Master’s consciousness once briefly descended here…” the monk thought as he appeared in the shrine in this world. He looked at his image and smiled.

“So that’s how it is!”

He returned to the dream world again. He raised the monk staff in his hand and tapped it lightly in the dream world.

Countless ripples spread out.

He raised his head and looked through the fog and clouds in the dream world, looking at the existence sleeping in the star cluster in the deepest part of the starry sky.

“Hastur! The monk called out to the existence sleeping in it. “Aren’t you going to take care of it?”

The wind began to reverberate in the depths of the starry sky.

The yellow figure woke up in the depths of the star cluster.

Under the yellow clothes, shadowy tentacles extended out one by one, surrounding the supreme existence. The magnificent crown was on his head.

In the next moment, he disappeared into the star cluster.

… … ..

Ling Pingan had just walked down the stairs when the kitten Bastet jumped onto his shoulder and meowed in fear!

“What’s wrong, little darling?” Ling Pingan comforted his pet. “Don’t be afraid. I will protect you!”

The kitten then quieted down.

Ling Pingan carried the kitten and walked to the door. When he opened the door, he heard the sound of a fire engine in the distance.

“What’s going on?” He walked to the door and asked Aunt Cai next door, “What happened at the other side of the river?!”

“I don’t know…” Aunt Cai shook her head. “I think there’s a late-night snack shop across the river. It’s called ‘Little Ke Seafood”. I think it’s on fire…”

“Maybe someone was jealous of his business, so they sent people to make trouble!”

As Ling Pingan listened, he remembered the late-night snack he ordered last night.

The squid whiskers and beef bone marrow were indeed delicious!

“I hope he’s fine!” Ling Pingan sighed. “I was going to order his squid whiskers and beef marrow in the future!”

“The fish liver was also very delicious!”
