NOVPUBAlright, alright, alright, my nickname has gone straight from brother to ’dead pervert,’ huh.
Such a qualitative leap in such a short time, Wu Bin felt quite gratified.
All of this was thanks to the system!
Seeing Zhu Ling dive into the blanket, unwilling to talk to him, Wu Bin did not want to wake up He Bingbing, so he simply lay back down on the sofa and continued to figure out how to use the Taunting Skill the system had given him.
Who knew that shortly after Wu Bin sat on the sofa, he suddenly felt his eyelids grow heavy, and he became drowsy.
He did not know how long he had slept, but lying on the sofa, Wu Bin felt a chill.
Just as he was about to reach for the blanket that had fallen to the ground, he suddenly became alert as if realizing something.
"In a dream?"
Wu Bin, now fully alert, was very familiar with the feeling.
It was eerily quiet around them; it seemed as if the whole world had fallen silent, and only they were making any noise.
Wasn’t this sensation indicative of having entered the Dream Tapir’s dream realm?
At that moment, Zhu Ling also got up from the bed, but curiously, He Bingbing was sound asleep, showing no signs of waking up.
Zhu Ling frowned and glanced at He Bingbing, then said, "This time the Dream Tapir has not invaded He Bingbing’s dream, so He Bingbing is safe."
Wu Bin was still somewhat uneasy.
"If she appears in the dream realm, then she can’t be safe, right? What if a spider suddenly emerges and attacks her, then she won’t even know how she died, will she?"
Wu Bin was reminded of the incident that had occurred previously in the train car.
Hadn’t there been passengers on the train who had fallen asleep and were then sliced in half by a spider?
As a result, when the dream ended, those passengers also ended up vegetative, with the same fate as Tang Ke and the others.
Zhu Ling reached out and tried to grab He Bingbing, and only then did Wu Bin realize that to them, He Bingbing was nothing but an illusion.
Zhu Ling could not touch He Bingbing at all.
"See? She is not in our dream realm, and with the dream realm open, the Dream Tapir will no longer have the opportunity to invade He Bingbing’s dream. So, He Bingbing is absolutely safe now," Zhu Ling explained.
Wu Bin curled his lips but did not say anything else.
He hadn’t expected that Zhu Ling, who usually called her ’Bingbing sister’ so affectionately, would suddenly become mature and start addressing her directly by her name when it came down to serious business.
"So what should we do now, where do we find the Dream Tapir?"
Without even thinking, Zhu Ling replied, "We don’t need to look for it, it will come to us on its own."
Sure enough, just as Zhu Ling’s words fell, they heard something colliding with the iron gate from outside the window.
Wu Bin went to the window and looked out, and he was instantly stunned.
The two huge spiders from the train were now using their bodies to continuously slam against the villa gates.
Although the quality of the villa gates was good, they could not withstand the spiders taking turns striking them, and they quickly became dented, warped, and ruined.
Once the gates were broken, the two spiders brazenly broke into the villa, starting to search for Wu Bin and the others’ location.
Standing at the window, Wu Bin was petrified and asked hurriedly, "Didn’t you say that there’s a door god guarding this villa? Where’s the door god?"
Zhu Ling said indifferently, "This isn’t really a villa; it’s just a construction based on our daytime memories. Everything about this villa is what we saw and associated today. If you don’t believe me, take a look at the curtain in your hand."
Wu Bin glanced at the curtain in his hand and immediately understood.
Because he had looked around during the day, he actually didn’t know the details of many things.
So for the things he didn’t know, even if the Dream Tapir used his memories to construct an identical villa, it couldn’t perfect many of the details.
Since Wu Bin himself didn’t know what the curtains should really look like, naturally the Dream Tapir didn’t know what the situation with the villa’s curtains was either, because Wu Bin couldn’t imagine something he had never seen before.
However, Wu Bin soon realized he was focusing on the wrong thing.
He urgently said to Zhu Ling, "The point right now is not whether this villa is real or not, the point is the spiders are about to break in! Should we run for our lives now or go find the Dream Tapir?"
Wu Bin was truly anxious.
Before entering the dreamscape, Wu Bin had actually done a lot of simulations and had many ideas.
But after entering the dreamscape, Wu Bin realized that all these simulations and ideas were meaningless; only strength was truly useful.
Now he had no means of self-protection and no ability to attack. In the end, he still had to rely on Zhu Ling.
Seeing how impatient Wu Bin was, Zhu Ling sighed and then said, "Originally, I wasn’t planning to take action, but this Dream Tapir has gone too far. Bro, take this, hold onto it."
Zhu Ling beckoned with his right hand, and two things instantly appeared in front of Wu Bin.
Wu Bin focused his eyes and was immediately stunned.
The two items that appeared in front of him, a knife and a shield... what was Zhu Ling implying, he surely wasn’t suggesting that Wu Bin should pick up this equipment and go face the spiders head-on?
As if discerning Wu Bin’s confusion, Zhu Ling explained, "My Spiritual Power cannot be used against small fry like spiders, I need to save it for the Dream Tapir."
"This knife and shield are for you to defend yourself with. If you don’t find them useful, you don’t have to take them."
"Take them, of course I’ll take them."
Without even thinking, Wu Bin immediately picked up the knife and shield and equipped them.
What a joke, even though he hadn’t undergone professional training, at a time like this, having equipment would definitely increase his chances of survival.
After Wu Bin picked up the knife and shield, Zhu Ling made another mystical hand gesture with his right hand.
Soon, golden powder appeared out of thin air in the room.
The golden powder seemed to be alive, starting to shift in a specific direction, pointing the way forward for them both.
This miraculous scene left Wu Bin’s eyes wide in amazement.
"Zhu Ling, this move is awesome, what’s it called, teach me?"
Zhu Ling gave Wu Bin a look and said, "You can’t learn this move; it’s a special tracking secret art of the Dragon Clan, and you’re not of the Dragon Clan. Just follow my directions obediently."
After hearing this, Wu Bin felt incredibly regretful.
Isn’t this just like a map navigation?
If he also knew this technique, he could tag any monster he encounters in the future; if he could beat it, he’d go for it, if not, he’d take a detour. That would be the smartest course of action.
While Wu Bin was thinking this, a sound of something being smashed came from outside the living room!
Wu Bin knew that the spiders had already broken into the living room, and were now opening each room one by one to search!
