American comics: Starting with Luke the Maker

“The dark aura on you is so thick it’s sickening.” Uther tightened his grip on the warhammer in his hand. In truth, he really wanted to grab the levitating, out-of-control cross and use it as a weapon. Despite its small size, after activating its Holy Light power, the condensed Holy Light could be shaped into any size weapon according to the manipulator's will and needs.

But now, the connection between Uther and the cross was intermittent, as weak as a spider silk fluttering in the wind.

“Those demons always find loopholes in people's hearts to corrupt them.” Archbishop Alonsus stepped forward, bursting with intense Holy Light. A long spear made of Holy Light was tightly grasped in his hand, and he threw it towards Mephisto.

“I understand the complexities of you life forms. It seems that if I want you to have a peaceful negotiation with me, I still need to show you despair.

How about this then, the conditions I give you are still valid. And beyond these conditions, I can bestow upon you the grace to resist. If you can drive me away, then you, and this city, will gain freedom and still receive my protection.

But if you fail, you must unconditionally sign these contracts. Until then, no life will leave this city, and no human will be harmed. How about it?”

Mephisto grabbed the Holy Light spear thrown by Alonsus, and the dense and solid Holy Light was wrapped in powerful hellfire in his hand, then it broke and turned into starlight spots, disappearing into the air.

Mephisto's bony facial features revealed a disappointed expression at Alonsus's rejection and resistance, but he quickly proposed another condition that Alonsus and the others could hardly refuse.

They had already seen the endless stream of demons pouring down from the portal in the sky, converging on Stratholme and its surroundings. Those armies were similar to the Burning Legion's demonic legions.

The fact that these leaders were stuck inside the cathedral did not mean that they were unaware of everything outside. Human soldiers were clearly struggling to cope with the endless stream of demons.

This was an enemy that could not be resisted by humans alone!

At the very least, all the intelligent life on this planet needed to unite once again to form an allied army to drive out this invader.

That portal in the sky was the top priority.

“Why are you immune to the Holy Light?” Uther saw Mephisto casually snap Alonsus's Holy Light spear, and remain unaffected in the church hall filled with dense Holy Light, and he suddenly asked.

“You are a clever child. I can't wait to get your soul even more.” Mephisto glanced at Uther strangely, while adding some more secretive tricks to the other party's contract, and replied.

“As for your question, this is the benefit of having a strong organization behind you. I don't know how Luke does it, but he always has a way to ease conflicting and opposing energies and make them harmless. He is best at this kind of technology.

Of course, this technology is valuable. It is a privilege limited to a few people and positions. I hate energies that conflict with my hellfire, but sometimes I don't mind swallowing a little to convert and replenish my consumption.”

Mephisto condensed a golden apple with Holy Light in front of Alonsus and the others, and then gnawed it clean.

His behavior was obviously to打击 Alonsus and the others. As long as there were slight loopholes and fears in the other party's hearts, he could take advantage of the situation and use various means to corrupt them step by step.

It was also because the quality of the souls in this city had been significantly improved, allowing Mephisto to see someone's handwriting, and treat it as a high-quality soul leek field, unwilling to directly cut off the roots.

Otherwise, according to his previous style, he would at least do something in these cities, such as plagues, deaths, etc., to guide Alonsus and the others to fall in the dark step by step.

After contacting Luke a lot, he had begun to consider sustainable development for the first time. You must know that he used to just harvest a sum and leave. Anyway, the universe is so big, and it's not my territory, right?

But now it won't work.

This world will definitely be grasped in Luke's hands. Even though he has only entered this world not long ago, he has already felt the special nature of this world. The high-quality souls in front of him can only be said to be appetizers before the main course.

“The Holy Light protects me!”

Uther took the lead in launching a charge towards Mephisto.

……

“What a wonderful world! There is even such a magnificent dreamland here!” A man in dark green attire looked at the towering giant tree in front of him, his heart filled with surprise. On that giant tree, he felt an energy that was exactly like his own.

That was the power of dreams!

Perhaps his power in the real world was indeed seriously lacking, but the dream realm was his home field! He was the master of the dream dimension, the dimensional demon god of dreams.

The Nightmare took a light step, and the whole person disappeared in place. When he reappeared, he had already arrived in the Emerald Dream guarded by the Green Dragon in this world.

“Are these the best evolutionary forms of this world?”

Looking at the beautiful world in front of him, the Nightmare used his power to frantically absorb the authority and information data of the Emerald Dream. He saw the powerful Titans who created this dream, and saw the potential blueprints they planned for this world.

This was a pure land in this world that had not been polluted.

It was peaceful and tranquil, but also dangerous and beautiful.

But soon, this dream world created by those Titans was about to fall into the hands of the Nightmare. He began to send his power into the Emerald Dream along his own energy, and began to drastically change the Emerald Dream according to his own wishes.

Although it was much smaller than his own dream dimension, the quality was so high that it made him a little envious. Just like a glutton seeing a table of delicacies, he had no intention of paying attention to anything else.

He wanted to occupy this place first!

Ysera, the guardian dragon of the Emerald Dream, stood up. She looked around vigilantly, and just now, she sensitively noticed some changes in the Emerald Dream that made her uneasy.

The world of the Emerald Dream would produce some corresponding changes according to the dreamer, but these changes would generally be limited to a small range, and these changes would return to normal under the self-regulation of the Emerald Dream.

Except for the Titans, no one could truly permanently change the Emerald Dream. The guardian dragon of the dream, the Green Dragon Ysera, could not do this either. But just now, Ysera sensitively felt some incredible things in the dream world that made her feel palpitations.

Soon, Ysera's premonition was confirmed.

Eranikus, one of the four most powerful green dragons under her command, flapped his wings and suddenly appeared in front of her.

“A powerful unknown intruder has entered the dream and is tampering with the rules of the dream.” Eranikus's tone was a little panicked, and she still had some wounds on her body, which were left after fighting some strange creatures just now. If she hadn't run fast, she might have been overwhelmed by those strange creatures, and then swallowed and become a part of the other party.

Those strange creatures were really feeding on dream energy and dream creatures!

And Eranikus felt that although she had broken free and escaped, it was only because the other party seemed to still have some unknown boundaries, and beyond the area, the other party would no longer chase after her. What made her even more frightened was that she had lost some of her power, and after being swallowed by those strange creatures, she permanently lost a part of her power.

This was simply an unprecedented disaster for the Emerald Dream!

Ysera immediately used her power to search for the intruder, but what she predicted and learned was only a blank void. This meant that the other party either had powerful concealment abilities in this dream world, or everything was normal and Eranikus was lying.

Looking at Eranikus, who was still in shock and had wounds on her body after the battle, and feeling the constant warnings given to her by the Emerald Dream, Ysera took a deep breath and began to forcibly summon her green dragon legion. Including the green dragons who had been assigned to help Alexstrasza, the Red Dragon, were all brought back.

Ysera followed Eranikus and led the green dragons to the place of the mutation. The originally peaceful and serene Emerald Dream world had undergone earth-shaking changes.

The gray sky was constantly expanding, and various distorted and abstract creatures were jumping around inside, and there were even some that looked like toys and human children.

After carefully feeling the mutated area, Ysera clearly perceived that some kind of powerful force was entrenched in this area, and this force was forcibly polluting the world of the Emerald Dream.

The other party was like a tumor growing in the world of the Emerald Dream, rampantly and unreasonably absorbing the power of the Emerald Dream world and growing step by step. The power of the Emerald Dream was retreating steadily under the other party's strange energy. It was as if the human immune system had been completely paralyzed, and the defense mechanism had completely failed.

Ysera wanted to find the other party and use her authority to kick the other party out of the Emerald Dream world. But even if she used all her means, the information she obtained was still a blank unknown. She couldn't find any information about the other party, didn't know who the other party was, didn't know where the other party was, and didn't even know how the other party came in.

The only thing she could be sure of was that if she didn't care, the Emerald Dream would eventually be corrupted and degenerate into the oppressive and gloomy world of the mutated land. Looking at the speed at which it was expanding its boundaries, it might take a long time to reach this point, but Ysera had to consider that if she didn't remove this tumor before it was discovered, it might become even more troublesome in the future.

After thinking about it, Ysera simply and neatly used her power to expel all the lives in the Emerald Dream, except for the green dragons, and closed the door of the Emerald Dream.

She wanted to see if this would have any impact on the invading unknown person, so as to determine how the other party entered.

The result proved that the other party did not enter through normal channels.

Ysera's actions seemed to have alarmed the monsters in the mutated land. They seemed to have noticed that their food had suddenly decreased in large quantities. After hovering and chaos in the air, they turned their eyes to the direction of Ysera and other green dragons.

Dazzling meteorites suddenly fell from the sky with high temperature, but under the protection mechanism of the Emerald Dream, the power was constantly weakened and reduced, and finally Ysera easily blocked it, without causing any damage to the Emerald Dream outside the mutated land.

The appearance of the meteorites startled Ysera and the green dragons. According to the defense mechanism of the Emerald Dream, any magic and power that destroys nature is not allowed and will be greatly weakened.

Those abstract and strange monsters easily summoned a meteorite, which was a bit incredible, and the result also made Ysera breathe a sigh of relief.

At least this meant that the defense mechanism of the Emerald Dream was not completely ineffective, and there was still a part of it operating.

But the actions of Ysera and other green dragons were like poking a powder keg. The chaotic dream creatures in the mutated land were silent and stagnant for a moment, and then, as if they were enraged, they rushed towards Ysera and their direction.

The mutated land seemed to be determined according to the movement range of these abstract creatures. When these creatures rushed towards Ysera and other green dragons, the sky of the mutated land also continued to erode the Emerald Dream space approaching Ysera and other green dragons.

And one meteorite after another, wildfires, hail, and storms, were generated out of thin air and raged. Although they quickly weakened and died under the action of the defense mechanism after they appeared, the damage caused inherited the characteristics of the mutated land, that is, it was permanent. To restore it to normal, the Emerald Dream would need to consume more energy.

“Too rough! Too rough!” The Nightmare, hiding in the center of the mutated land, felt a little relieved when he saw this scene. Although the strength of those green dragons was good, their use of dream power was too rough. Those creator Titans did not give too much knowledge and usage authority related to dream power, and he did not see any creator Titans come out to stop him after he made such a big disturbance.

The Nightmare's mood instantly relaxed. In his heart, this Emerald Dream had become his bag. The green dragons alone could not stop him. If the other party did not leave, and did not erase his information in the Emerald Dream world, then the other party would inevitably be eroded by his dream power, and eventually be captured and become a part of his power.

The same was true for the dream residents who had lived here for a long time and left information.
