  Chapter 554 Sacrifice

  Ji Xingwang looked at the dead "couple", his back was drenched in cold sweat.

  The illusion created by the Nightmare Tapir is so flawless that even the Nightmare can believe it to be true.

  What about yourself? Are you also a nightmare? Is the body under the skin made of wax oil?

  The same doubt also appeared in Li Ang's mind.

  He closed his eyes and thought about it for a while, then decided to summon Mosi and formed a pocket watch on his chest.

  Take out the pocket watch, adjust the pointer to twelve o'clock in the morning, and start counting.

   Then, he stood on the table, scanned the chaotic crowd, and shouted: "Everyone listen to me! I have a way to get out of trouble!"

  The entire hall was silent, and everyone's eyes were on him.

"who is he?"

   "Who is this person?"

  There was no portrait of Li Ang published in the newspapers of Yu State, so the ordinary people in the lobby of the inn didn’t know Li Ang’s identity—only from the attitude of the disciples of Luli Academy towards him, they vaguely felt that he was a mysterious figure.

"plum"

  Ji Xingwang just wanted to reveal Li Ang's identity, but felt that it would cause unnecessary commotion and waste time for ordinary people, so he changed his words: "What can you do?"

   Li Ang said: "In order to wake up, the nightmare needs to feed on our sea of ​​​​qi and vitality, and by the way, take a small part of the extracted sea of ​​energy and vitality to create the nightmare.

  Nightmare is its feeding channel, and it is also the restriction that makes us avoid it.

   But there's a problem with that, it can't create energy out of thin air. In other words, it will not create nightmares at a loss. "

  The guards behind Jin Wusuan had drawn their weapons and prepared to confront each other in order to survive and protect themselves.

   Now hearing Li Ang's words, he couldn't help frowning and asked, "What do you mean?"

   "He means that the energy to maintain the nightmare comes from the host itself."

  Ji Linglang's eyes lit up, and she said, "It's not a nightmare."

   "Exactly."

   Li Ang nodded and said: "Think of the aura as a stream, and the water always flows from high to low. The total amount of aura in the host itself must be higher than that of the nightmare.

  Nightmare tapirs can’t trade at a loss,

  A monk in the hiding place can only generate nightmares that are 'lower' than him. It is impossible to generate Nightmare in Candleclave.

  Here is rule one. "

  He raised a finger and said slowly: "According to this rule, among all of us, the one who can never be a nightmare is Lu Qingya."

  As the dean of the Luli Academy, one of the most advanced Candle Sky magicians in the Yu Kingdom and even in the world,

  Lu Qingya's "energy level" is higher than that of everyone present, so he cannot be a nightmare.

   "As for Rule Two,"

  Li Ang said in a deep voice: "Only those who are close to each other can become nightmares."

   "What kind of rule is this?"

  A golden guard narrowed his eyes and said impatiently, "Isn't this obvious?"

   Li Ang said calmly: "It's very obvious, but have you ever thought about the reason why the nightmare is set up like this."

  The guard replied without thinking: "If the relationship is not close, the nightmare will not be able to restrain you."

  Suddenly, he thought of something and frowned.

   Li Ang took a deep breath, and said: "If the nightmare is the kind of stranger who only met once, and the relationship with the host is not close at all,

  Then for the host who wants to survive, killing is killing.

  What the Nightmare Tapir wants is to use the nightmare to drag the host down as much as possible, and keep the host alive, so that it can continuously draw spiritual power and vitality, and finally realize awakening. "

   After finishing speaking, Li Ang paused and looked down at his pocket watch.

  The second and minute hands of the pocket watch are still turning slowly.

   "According to the above two rules, we can also come up with two ways to break the situation."

  Li Ang held the pocket watch in his hand, and said in a deep voice: "One, divide everyone into different groups according to their social connections and aura.

   Of each group, the least likely to be the Nightmare, kills the others one by one. Eliminate nightmares.

   In order to block the awakening of the nightmare. "

   "What, what?"

  Everyone was stunned and shocked, doubting what they heard, Song Shaoyuan took a step forward to protect his wife and children, gritted his teeth and said, "Risheng, stop joking at this time."

   "Brother Song, I'm not joking."

  Li Ang said calmly: "From a utilitarian point of view, this is already the option that guarantees the highest survival rate for everyone.

  The Nightmare Tapir's life force extraction effect can be easily seen from everyone's appearance.

   Kill until aging stops.

  If you are lucky, there is no need to kill everyone in a social group, and each group can live two or three, or even four or five people.

   The ghost realm created by the nightmare cannot last forever. When the time limit is over, the survivors will naturally be able to get out of trouble. "

  The muscles on Song Shaoyuan's face kept beating and twitching. He knew in his heart that Li Ang was right, but how could he do it?

   "Ahem,"

  Sitting on the chair, Jin Wusuan coughed for a while, and said hoarsely: "You said that there are two ways to break the game, this is the first one.

   What about the second type? "

   "The second type is,"

   Li Ang turned his head to look in the direction of Luli Academy, and said calmly, "Kill Lu Qingya."

  ? !

   Ji Xingwang sternly said: "Your Excellency, don't talk nonsense! You just said that the dean is among all the people present, and it is absolutely impossible for him to be a nightmare."

   "Indeed, but have you ever thought about why the Nightmare Tapir chose Yuelai Inn?"

  Li Ang quickly said: "Just a sleeping nightmare, you can manipulate memory and modify reality at will.

  If you want it to wake up, you may not be enough to sacrifice tens of thousands of people.

   Either absorb the vitality of 10,000 or 100,000 people, or absorb an entire Candle Heaven Realm monk. "

  Li Ang's eyes reflected the talisman lights, and said indifferently and calmly: "In other words, the main target of the nightmare is Lu Qingya.

  The rest of the people are just adding to the head. "

  “.”

  The expressions of the people in Luli Academy changed again and again. They respected Lu Qingya, and it was impossible for them to draw their swords at the dean no matter what.

  If it wasn’t for Li Ang’s great contribution to the State of Yu and his lofty status,

   They are afraid that they have already swarmed up and killed Li Ang on the spot who was talking so much and sowing discord.

   "Bad guy!"

  The youngest son beside Lu Qingya angrily picked up a small stone from the ground and threw it at Li Ang, "You are not allowed to hurt my father."

  Children have limited arm strength, and the small stone lost its strength when it flew in mid-air, and failed to hit Li Ang, who was motionless and expressionless.

   "Qiubai, stop."

  Lu Qingya raised his hand to stop his younger son from moving. He sighed tiredly, looked at Li Ang and said seriously: "If I die, can Huangquan stop?"

   "Maybe."

   Li Ang glanced at the hands of the pocket watch again, and said calmly: "You are the one that the nightmare wants to eat. Once you die, the rest of the people will not be able to wake up the nightmare even if you smoke them."
