Chapter 919 - Chapter 918: The Player Killed by the Plot, Robin's Dreamscape

At the center of the stage, 'Robin' felt everyone's gaze and revealed a smile.

When Pei Guang and the others approached, 'Robin' spoke. "Congratulations everyone on becoming the Festivity Superstars of this Charmony Festival."

Hearing this deep and husky male voice, March 7th was scared: "This voice... isn't Miss Robin? And I remember... Himeko and Uncle Yang were moving with Miss Robin, that means..."

Pei Guang: "Captured, obviously. It seems his power possesses strong control abilities? Right? Dreammaster?"

"Hahahaha..."

The Dreammaster looked calmly at Pei Guang: "You are very smart, and also very special, but regrettably, you are also too smart for your own good."

Pei Guang: "?"

A big question mark slowly appeared over Pei Guang's head. 

Being a player and getting lectured by a boss? As a player, playing games only meant torturing oneself, when was it the boss's turn to torture him?

Dreammaster: "Do you think you can completely overturn Penacony through that little guy of yours who obtained the power of Harmony?"

Pei Guang was even more confused: "??? Overturn Penacony? Why would I overturn my territory? Watch your mouth, I won't overturn my turf, at most I'll expel everyone who stops me or... kill them?"

This sentence made the Dreammaster instantly silent. 

'Robin's' eyes went wide, looking at Pei Guang incredulously.

Since Pei Guang arrived in Penacony, ignoring the beginning and end, it hadn't even been three days. Three days! And he wanted to occupy Penacony? Even the IPC wouldn't dare think like this. 

You, a little Trailblazer with some special abilities, dare to think like this?

The Dreammaster's tone carried anger: "I admit, the faction behind you, and the strength you possess, are very dread-inducing.

Your expelling Sunday caused a tiny impact on our plan, but this tiny impact is negligible. Whether it is Sunday or Robin, both can complete our plan."

Pei Guang: "Damn, I was just thinking about whether Sunday and Robin would fight each other, forgot about this possibility. My bad..."

Dreammaster: "But regrettably, in the face of absolute power, these things of yours aren't enough to look at, let alone..."

Pei Guang frowned. 

Looking at the Dreammaster so confident in front of him, he could guess the opponent definitely had a hidden skill to use.

What hidden skill? Powerful enough to insta-kill him, or a powerful crowd control skill?

Seeing Pei Guang's serious look, the Dreammaster spoke: "If it were elsewhere, I couldn't do anything to you, but regrettably, this is my home field."

Pei Guang raised his vigilance to the limit. 

Stelle, March 7th, and Firefly simultaneously prepared for battle.

"Heh heh, you don't need to be nervous. The Family has promised that no one will die in Penacony's sweet dream. Even if you have ulterior motives towards Penacony, I won't hurt you. On the contrary, I will let you experience the true sweet dream."

As the Dreammaster's voice fell, Pei Guang suddenly felt his mind go into a trance.

Power from Order and the Stellaron suddenly erupted. The power of Order caused a trance in Pei Guang's mind, while the power of the Stellaron instantly wrapped around his body.

This was a calculation from the Dreammaster: Pei Guang was strong, and his abilities were completely incomprehensible.

But the Dreammaster had been monitoring Pei Guang's actions in Penacony. Although some actions were not seen, based on most of the content, Pei Guang's body and will were at the standard of a normal person; only his abilities were strange.

Pei Guang was strong, but not invincible. 

As long as he wasn't invincible, there were ways to deal with him.

The power of Order interfered with his consciousness, and the power of the Stellaron trapped his physical body. Pei Guang wanted to react, but at this moment his consciousness had been completely swallowed by the power of Order.

Subconsciously turning his head to look at the people beside him, not only him, but Stelle, March 7th, and Firefly also fell down at the same time.

"I..."

Pei Guang hadn't finished his sentence before he fell down too. He noticed his body was disappearing.

No, not disappearing, but his body was being controlled by the Dreammaster using the power of Order.

Facing this result, Pei Guang instead revealed an expectant expression.

"This plot... is a bit interesting? Insta-killed at the start? And then? Which character will save us in a highlight moment of this plot? If this character were put in a gacha game, they would definitely sell big, right?"

That's right, before his consciousness completely disappeared, Pei Guang was thinking about all of this.

If he lost after a great battle, he would be sweating bullets. But getting taken out without doing anything, wasn't this obviously a plot kill? 

Pei Guang was actually very calm.

Watching the four people on the ground, the 'Dreammaster' revealed a smile. Although he noticed Pei Guang's expression, the outcome was already set. He could feel that he had forcibly controlled Pei Guang, and could feel even more that Pei Guang had completely merged into Order. 

In this situation, except for an Emanator of Nihility, no other Emanator could break free.

A control that even Emanators cannot break free from: he couldn't imagine what method Pei Guang would use to escape.

In the entire Penacony, the two most dangerous people were Acheron and Pei Guang. After Acheron was 'killed' by Pei Guang and woke up, she was forcibly expelled from Penacony by the Family using forceful means.

Nihility is not a power that just any force can touch; to avoid Nihility ruining his plans, Acheron had to be driven away.

As for Pei Guang, he planned to control him directly. Pei Guang's body and the power he possessed were very special. 

At the same time, because of his identity, using Pei Guang was enough to make Xipe Cake raise its hands in surrender.

And this was indeed the case: the moment Pei Guang was controlled by him, Xipe Cake completely stopped using Harmony to control Penacony.

Because Xipe Cake could feel that what came next was the player's playtime. 

If it resisted too fiercely and weakened the Dreammaster's power, then Pei Guang's subsequent plot progression would be too simple, and there would be no gaming experience.

It still remembered its purpose for coming to Penacony: to help lives possessing self-awareness to survive.

After applying a layer of buff to the little ones following it, Xipe Cake directly gave up resistance, allowing the Dreammaster to erode its power, take away its strength, and control its physical body.

What? Failing? You must be joking!

It had long ago made long-distance calls to its siblings. If something really went wrong, Yaoshi Cake could bring the people of the Xianzhou Yaoqing to charge over.

Moreover, there was still the Trash Can here. Xipe Cake had long ago helped the Trash Can disguise itself. If its good-for-nothing creator really failed, there were still the Trash Can and the Xianzhou Alliance to act as a safety net.

If worst came to worst...! They could still find Ruan Mei!!!

The Dreammaster felt Xipe Cake giving up resistance, and even felt that it was willing to actively merge? 

Was it a conspiracy?

It didn't matter. His plan was originally to control an Emanator of Harmony. 

Normal Emanators of Harmony are parts of Xipe; if he could control even a part of Xipe, he didn't care at all about a mere trinket that was born accidentally and possessed some power.

After thoroughly controlling Xipe Cake, the Dreammaster felt power, immense power.

It was just regrettable that Sunday wasn't here. If he were here, he would definitely let him see the scene of their ideal being realized.

Starting with Pei Guang's group, more people entered the Dreamscape of Order.

However, while one person after another fell into their own exclusive sweet dreams, Pei Guang in the deeper dreamscape was rubbing his chin and looking at the scene before him.

He was in a courtyard, and he saw two children in the courtyard looking at something.

Pei Guang: "Good grief? A dream within a dream? Hmm? All skills are unusable because of being controlled? Inventory is banned too? This is a bit troublesome uh… but what am I supposed to do next?"

Pei Guang studied the system logs. 

He saw the notification of being sneak-attacked on the system log, and among various records, Pei Guang saw the most useful prompt.

[Player Pei Guang has entered Robin's Dreamscape, please explore freely]

Looking at the two winged children in front of him, and then looking at the system prompt, Pei Guang felt like he had grasped something, but also grasped nothing.

"Entering someone else's dream? To help others fulfill their dreams or to make these people realize this is a dream and is fake so they break free themselves?"

Pei Guang began to think about what the plot required next. Since he was here, he might as well make the best of it.

Since he had entered Robin's dream, he was very curious about what was in Robin's dream. Would she count how many puzzle pieces were on Xipe in her dream?

Incidentally, through Robin's dream, he wanted to see what he, having been killed by the plot, could do.
