"Mr. Edward? Mr. Edward? "
"Mr. Edward, how are you? Wake up! Oh, my God! What should I do? "
The urgent voice woke Edward up from his dream. At that moment, Edward was in his rented house. The one who woke him up was the temporary maid he had hired, Hathaway. Every day, she would come to Edward's house to cook and clean the room. As soon as she entered the yard, she saw the door wide open and Edward lying on the ground, covered in blood. She was scared out of her wits.
At that moment, Edward's room was in a mess. Bookshelves and desks were knocked down, and all kinds of things were scattered on the ground. The witchcraft notebook that Lu Zhiyu had given him was open and scattered on the side.
Edward had used the knowledge and methods of dispelling curse witchcraft in the dream witchcraft notebook to remove the curse witchcraft that was attached to his mind. The strange power that was attached to one's mind power and constantly attacked one's consciousness was difficult to get rid of, even for a wizard. Edward had used the basic dream witchcraft, Dream Entry, to enter his own dream and remove the power of curse witchcraft.
Edward suddenly sat up, startling the little maid, Hathaway. This girl with freckles on her nose was full of longing for the handsome and tall Edward. At this age, Edward, who was in the stage of a teenager's infatuation, was mysterious, confident, and scholarly. In addition, he had an appearance that far exceeded that of an ordinary person. Naturally, he was the dream lover in Hathaway's imagination. At this moment, when Edward suddenly stuck so close to Hathaway, Hathaway's face instantly turned red.
"Love … Mr. Edward!" Even her voice became stuttering.
"It's okay, I'm fine. Don't tell anyone about what happened here." Edward was still in a state where his consciousness had not yet returned. He had constructed his own dream according to the initial practice method of dream witchcraft. It was said that this dream was simplified according to the witchcraft space of a level four wizard.
According to Lu Zhiyu, constructing a dream was to construct an information space. As long as one's mind power, consciousness, and computing power were strong enough, one could construct a completely real dream space. Except for the lack of matter, it was exactly the same as reality.
Being able to begin to construct a dream space meant that one had the capital to begin to interfere with reality with the power of the mind. Of course, for wizards below level four, the power of the mind was too weak. Coupled with the fact that the power of the mind had not been activated, there was no ability to interfere with matter and pry open the laws of physics. However, dream witchcraft was a different approach. It developed curses, using dreams as a carrier to form curse power to attack the consciousness and the power of the mind of life.
As long as the opponent's consciousness was not strong enough or resolute enough, the power of the curse would borrow the opponent's strength and begin to interfere with reality, materializing on the opponent's body. For example, if the curse was to make the opponent die a miserable death in the cold, the special mental power that contained the power of the curse would invade the opponent's consciousness, making the opponent believe that they would die in this way. Then, the power of the curse would make the person's entire body frozen solid, as if they were frozen to death in an extremely cold snowy night, even if it was a scorching summer day.
It couldn't pry open the supernatural power, but it was more terrifying and unpredictable than the supernatural power. If Edward hadn't had the notebook that Lu Zhiyu had given him, he probably wouldn't have been able to escape this time.
Thinking of this, Edward felt a chill run down his spine. Just now, when he was constructing the dreamscape, he kept recalling his past memories. The dreamscape castle he constructed was the tower in his memories. However, there was not a single person in it. It was illusory and hazy, as if it could be blown away by the wind. With his mental strength, it was already very good for him to be able to do this.
Among the memories that he recalled, he had the most memories of being with Adonis,. However, he remembered that there were so many ghouls underground. Each ghoul had been a living person when they were alive, and each person could have been the backbone of a family and the only source of income.
Adonis,'s actions had led to the destruction of many families and tragedies. Edward didn't know, but he could imagine it. For example, the maid in front of him, Hathaway, was only fourteen years old. Because of her father's disappearance, she had to come to Edward as a maid to earn money. It was very likely that her father was one of those ghouls.
The army of so many ghouls, as well as the special ghouls with supernatural power, as well as the high-level ghouls that Lu Zhiyu had mentioned, were now eyeing the entire city of Babus and the entire Kingdom of Mara. If Edward didn't act now, he was afraid that more tragedies would befall this land.
"No matter what, I have to find him immediately and stop him!"
Edward stood up, and the wound on his chest suddenly tore open. His face suddenly turned pale, and his face twitched in pain. Although the healing spell had taken effect, it wasn't easy to completely heal such a large wound due to the loss of blood.
The little maid, Hathaway, said with distress, "Mr. Edward, you have lost so much blood. You can't go out now. You need to rest. I'll find you a doctor."
"No, I'm the best doctor."
Edward took off his outer coat and began to clean his wound. He rebandaged it and changed his coat. He forced himself to walk outside. When he reached the door, he suddenly thought of something. He turned around and said to Hathaway, "By the way, Hathaway, if you don't have anything to do, it's best if you don't go out. If you're willing, you can stay here with me."
Hathaway froze for a moment, then suddenly thought of something. Her face suddenly turned red, and she wanted to say something, but she found that Edward had already pushed open the door and was gone.
"You mean, there are many of these monsters in the city, and there are even more powerful monsters than this one? And behind these monsters, there is a mysterious person controlling them, who is preparing to attack Babus and turn it into a city of the dead?" Hans, the city defense officer, stared at Edward with a pair of scrutinizing eyes. In his opinion, this mysterious guy with an unknown identity was not trustworthy, but what he said was related to the existence of Babus, so Hans had no choice but to be cautious.
Hans was a bald man, a powerful Bloodline Knight. He was born in the King's Guards, and when he grew old, he took over the position of city defense officer. He was an important figure deeply trusted by the king. Although his status and position were not high, he had great power. Edward believed that it was very important to win him over to his side.
Edward nodded. "The city's underground sewers have been completely occupied by these monsters. They are waiting for an opportunity. When the time comes, they will rush out of the sewers and spread the corpse poison throughout Babus. Everyone will become a part of them, a member of this monster called the ghouls. Babus will become a living hell on earth."
Hans looked at the wounds on Edward's body, as well as some of the evidence that he had brought out from the underground. After analyzing the strange things that had happened in the city recently and the strange atmosphere inside the palace, even the sudden death of the old king, Hans, who had originally suspected that there was a conspiracy behind all this, was convinced of what Edward said.
"Waiting for an opportunity? The old king is dead, and because several other heirs have renounced their rights of succession, the throne will be inherited by the third prince, Adenos. At that time, a grand coronation ceremony will be held, and at the same time, the new king will be crowned by Cardinal Bishop Peter of the Church of Light. All the lords of the Kingdom of Mara will come to see the new king. Is this the reason behind the conspiracy? Are they planning to wipe out all the high-ranking nobles of the Kingdom of Mara during this coronation ceremony? "
Hans immediately thought of something, and suddenly felt a little pale, cold sweat dripping down his face. Edward, however, was not paying attention to this, but to one of the strange names. "What did you just say? What is the name of the next king of the Kingdom of Mara? "
"Prince Adonis, Adonis Monar."
