"Untie the spider silk. This guy wasn't lying. In a sense, it really is my child!" Lu Yu said to the little spider.
"It's over!"
The mouse still held onto a sliver of hope, thinking that even if it were a party, it wouldn't be left out.
But to everyone's surprise, the perverted Xiu Ren didn't even bother to pretend anymore!
The mouse looked dazed, suddenly realizing that a world of three was indeed too crowded, and that a triangle was the most unstable shape.
It shouldn't be here; it should be under the car!
Thinking of this, the hamster couldn't help but burst into tears.
"Waaaah... You guys always do good things by yourselves, never involving the hamster. When did this start?"
Before he could finish speaking, Lu Yu grabbed it and, looking at it speechlessly, asked:
"What nonsense are you spouting?"
"Hmph, this is a desperate accusation from a poor little mouse!"
The mouse turned its head and sniffled, saying:
"And you've already admitted it's your child, that's too much. Even if you don't say anything, the mouse can make up a reason and deceive itself, just like a housewife who discovers her husband's infidelity but pretends not to know and silently maintains family harmony."
But why are you being so cruel, leaving no room for compromise? Do you want the CPU mouse to be pushed around when it's tired? You perverted hamsters, have you ever played any special games? Like when the mouse is asleep...?
"..."
Is there anything else in your hamster-like head?
Haven't you noticed that your fur is getting shinier and shinier? Even the green hair on your head is almost being dyed back to yellow.
Lu Yu rolled his eyes, momentarily at a loss for words.
Despite being a pet, it acts like the female lead in an 8 PM melodrama; it's truly a drama queen.
However, he also understood that the mouse didn't really care about these things. It had been lonely for a long time and was just afraid of being isolated and abandoned!
Like most ordinary people, the mouse sometimes slacks off, sometimes gets lazy, and likes to goof off, but most of the time, it works hard for the family. No matter how much hardship it suffers, it never talks about it. Even if its family asks, it just laughs and chuckles to get away with it.
Because it felt it was worth it!
But it will also be sad if its efforts are not recognized. After all, who can be happy all the time? We are all just putting on a brave face!
For Lu Yu, whether it was Little Spider, Mouse, or Egg, they were all like his limbs, an indispensable part of him.
"Looks like you've been too free lately. Halve your potato chip allowance this week!"
One thing at a time. Although Lu Yu is not one to hold grudges, he still needs to teach the rat a lesson, otherwise it will climb all over him next time.
Anyway, after this guy advanced to the Gold rank, the number of his rat clones increased. As long as he squeezes the new employees, he can still complete the training tasks he assigned. There's no need for so many potato chips!
In this way, Lu Yu saved some money, but the consequences were borne by Shushu!
The ruthlessness of these capitalist mice is far less than that of the big capitalist Lu!
"Damn it, Xiuren, this is tyranny! You're forcing the rats to submit to your tyranny..."
Lu Yu ignored the mouse's wailing and gestured to the little spider, which nodded and loosened its web.
The moment the fairy was freed, she threw herself into Lu Yu's arms, nuzzling her little head against his clothes, and said happily:
"My father is so good!"
Lu Yu stroked its head, feeling the increasingly strong connection between them, and asked in a gentle voice:
"You must be from Nightmare Prison!"
"Hehe, Father is indeed the smartest person in the world, unlike Mother, who not only didn't recognize me, but almost ate me up..."
The fairy girl smiled and continued:
"However, I am not the real Nightmare Prison. After all, that was Father's dream, a manifestation of your will. I am the second consciousness that was born from Nightmare Prison after I ate that big green cake. In a sense, I should be the administrator or warden of Nightmare Prison!"
The green cake... refers to Emerald Dream!
Lu Yu nodded, having already understood the whole story.
This Emerald Dream was formed from the miraculous power transformed from the earth's veins. It is essentially a solidified legendary-tier skill, containing immense vitality and miraculous power.
After being devoured by the Nightmare Prison, everything in its dream world came alive, including the dreams themselves.
Because the corrupt and strife-ridden dragon that controls the Emerald Dream was born from the collective consciousness of nature, [Nature's Green], it also possesses similar characteristics, which will lead to a situation where...
Pan-consciousness fusion!
These activated consciousnesses, centered around the dream world, converged together. Influenced by the [Master of the Gate] position and the ongoing [Lucky Star] buff, a special life form similar to "natural consciousness" was born.
That is, the fairy right in front of you!
In short, it's similar to how the dragon of corruption and strife was born from the green of nature, except that the green of nature has been transformed into the Nightmare Prison.
Nightmare Prison is based on Lu Yu's own dream, but it was formed by Little Spider weaving a large amount of dream spider silk and its skills evolved multiple times. It is a creation jointly created by Lu Yu and Little Spider.
Therefore, there is no problem with the other party calling him father and Spider-Man mother.
"Waaah!"
Upon hearing this, the little spider understood and a look of sudden realization appeared on its face.
So that's how she had children with her master...
No wonder I didn't feel anything!
It stretched out its paw and weakly explained, "I won't eat the baby!" (°ー°〃)
"Since Nightmare Prison can give rise to natural consciousness, is there a chance it could evolve into Gaia consciousness, or even world consciousness?"
Lu Yu pondered that even most low-level secret realms, or even minor planes, do not possess a complete consciousness; they only have the laws of operation and instincts.
High-level secret realms with consciousness can be self-sufficient even without integrating into the main world, and may even continue to evolve and transform into independent ecological worlds.
His dream world, however, was born with consciousness ahead of time. It was as if an old computer had been transformed into artificial intelligence and come to life, with its efficiency greatly improved and even its material properties were evolving.
Even if he were to leave it alone from now on, Nightmare Prison would evolve and improve itself on its own, continue to expand, and precisely control every inch of the area. It could even mobilize the power of the dream world to suppress all foreign invaders.
If it transforms into something comparable to the world consciousness, similar to the minor heavenly path in a cultivation world, it can even erode the endless dream realm, devouring and strengthening itself.
Who knows, one day I might wake up and find that my Nightmare Prison is about to be upgraded to the Dream God Kingdom!
As expected, the Lu family doesn't tolerate idlers; they even take care of a dream!
"I originally planned to hold a ceremony to help the dream world develop consciousness once it had evolved to a large enough size, but now things have turned out unexpectedly well..."
Lu Yu sighed inwardly, looking at the fairy-like girl clinging to him, and said with satisfaction:
"From now on, I'll call you Xiaoyu!"
The characters for "jade" and "prison" are pronounced the same, and jadeite itself is a type of jade, which also embodies Lu Yu's expectations.
As the first generation of familiars created by him and Little Spider, although it was born by chance, if Lu Yu can become a forbidden existence, it will also rise to the top and become a future Prison Angel!
This unexpected experience of becoming a father has certainly been quite rewarding!
"Thank you, Father. I really like this name!"
Xiaoyu received a name, a happy smile appeared on her face, and she flapped her wings and sat on Lu Yu's shoulder.
"Eek!"
The little spider watched this harmonious scene, and although it was happy to have its family together, it also felt inexplicably lost.
Because that place... used to be its location!
"I see!"
The mouse had been listening intently to what was happening, and after figuring out what was going on, it breathed a sigh of relief.
It said, "It's clearly the mice that support this family, how could we forget about them!"
Spider Sister can do it, and it can do it too, and it will even feel sorry for Xiu Ren!
Thinking of this, the mouse regained its spirits, floated over on a soul cloud, and looked at this "elder niece," adopting the demeanor of an elder, and said with a smile:
"Little one, do you know who I am?"
As the pillar of this family, it's perfectly fine for the child to call the mouse "Big Mother," I just hope Spider Sister won't misunderstand, hehehe...
However, Xiaoyu glanced at the mouse and answered without hesitation:
"Aren't you just Mother's slave rat?"
The mouse froze, then heard the other person continue:
"If you don't like this name, you can call me 'reserve grain'!"
"Pfft!"
Lu Yu couldn't help but chuckle upon hearing this, and Little Spider also covered his mouth and laughed.
Why is the whole world persecuting mice?!
However, Xiaoyu didn't know why her father was happy, nor did she think there was anything wrong with it. As a consciousness nurtured by the Nightmare Prison, in her eyes, apart from her father and mother, all other life was just food or servants.
(╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻!
"Kids are so annoying!"
The mouse was full of resentment, but upon closer reflection, it realized that it might not necessarily be able to win in the Nightmare Prison woven by Spider Sister herself.
Now even Spider Sister's child can overshadow him, his position in the family is getting lower and lower, and he urgently needs Egg to come out and make up for it.
Although the process was a bit noisy, Xiaoyu successfully joined the family, but she didn't like staying with Little Spider, her "mother," and preferred to follow Lu Yu instead.
According to it, it was afraid of being eaten by the little spider if it didn't obey, and it always emitted a terrifying aura!
"How is that possible..."
Lu Yu chuckled, never expecting that the usually gentle little spider would be so afraid.
Could it be that the creature in the dream sees it differently than what it sees itself?
"However, what the little spider lacks most is the [Dream Eater] skill, its natural enemy in the dream-based magic system!"
Lu Yu pondered to himself, "Although I entrusted the Dark Moon Merchant Guild to search, I have not yet found anything."
It seems I still need to find some time to delve into the Dream Realm and fish around, to see if I can find a Dream-type pet with this skill.
"Next, it's time for some training!"
After this evolution, the training effect of Nightmare Prison can be adjusted to reflect up to 1/2 of the training effect back to reality, making the training effect even higher than before.
If you forcibly drag your opponent into the dream and kill them, they will suffer the same injuries as you in reality!
However, even half is not enough to offset the deaths!
So Lu Yu started training the three new kids, not even sparing the newborn Xiao Yu. Feeling the authority of a loving father, Xiao Yu's eyes welled up with tears!
However, Lu Yu felt no pity whatsoever; in fact, he intensified his efforts. After all, it was the "war chariot" that would one day dominate the dream world. As a place where countless dreams converged, it was filled with chaos and disorder, and even gods could not spread their glory within it.
Not to mention that Lu Yu also learned through the Eye of Truth that a few drops of milk created the Nightmare Sea, which concealed a forbidden existence such as the [Mother of Nightmares].
If you don't handle it properly, flipping over won't just be embarrassing, it could be life-threatening!
Sweat more now, bleed less on the battlefield!
While Lu Yu was training intensely, the internet was buzzing with excitement.
Because that jerk content creator who always uses clickbait titles to edit Lu Yu's videos has actually updated!
The title is: "Disciples Who Play with the Masses"!
I initially thought Lu Yu had pulled some crazy move, but when I opened the video, there wasn't even a figure in sight. Only after hearing the conversation did I realize:
Lu Yu didn't even show up; he just played around with everyone in the entertainment district, cashed out, and left.
While it looks cool, the fact that it wasn't shown in previous videos has fueled dissatisfaction in the comments section.
"Boring, I want to see rivers of blood!"
"I want to see Lu Yu use all sorts of amazing skills to conquer the secret realm, and then I can brag about it to everyone outside of Dayuan City!"
"Where are the disciples? All I see is that show-off Liang Kui, he walks around like he's walking on air, he'll get stabbed to death sooner or later!"
"What a pity, this guy is about to advance to Morning Star level. Could it be that the so-called disciple refers to him?"
"..."
Most people watched Liang Kui appear, ready to lead the charge into the secret realm. While it was somewhat interesting, after watching Lu Yu's edited videos, they could no longer bear the process of being gradually tormented by the secret realm.
It has to be something truly extraordinary to be interesting!
"Forget it, this content creator has run out of ideas, I'm leaving!"
"There are tons of videos like this; you don't need to edit them!"
"Boring, unfollowed!"
"..."
As a group of people started making a fuss, most people lost the will to watch and were about to close the video when someone jumped out and questioned Liang Kui's plan. The lighting and background music changed and became eerie.
There's a calm before the storm!
This piqued the interest of those who disliked this showy guy, who were looking forward to the two of them fighting.
After the phrase "winning hearts and minds is the best policy" came out, a lot of people couldn't help but laugh. Is this guy an idiot?
But soon... everyone's laughter stopped abruptly.
Because in the video, Liang Kui's heart was ripped out and crushed instantly!
The disciples, dressed in formal attire, wearing felt hats, and leaning on walking sticks, appeared with unparalleled elegance.
The comments section went silent for a moment, then exploded instantly!
"Holy crap, psychological warfare is the best policy, it's actually applied in a physical sense!"
"I'm not lying, I saw Liang Kui being completely open and honest with people!"
"My God, this thing is hiding it so well! There's absolutely no sign of it transforming!"
Just when everyone thought the disciple was the villain, the sudden intervention of the bald man and the old woman in black made many viewers realize that something was amiss.
As expected, the story took an unexpected turn; these two guys were actually in cahoots with Liang Kui!
"Liang Kui looks like a hypocrite to me; he really is an evil beast tamer!"
"Finally, someone has exposed his true colors. My brother is such a kind person. After seeing him in danger in the secret realm, he took the initiative to help him, but he was betrayed by him and was eventually devoured by monsters until there was no trace of his body."
If it weren't for my pet beast's ability to conceal its presence, allowing me to hide in a crevice and witness this scene, I would have remained completely unaware of the truth. But its disguise was so effective that without evidence, no one would believe it even if it were revealed. Today, it has finally gotten its comeuppance. Thank you, Master Disciple!
"This is terrifying! How many people has this guy harmed by abusing his position as the person in charge?!"
"I suddenly feel like there's something fishy about my brother's death too!"
"..."
The video went viral instantly; what was supposed to be amusement turned into a revenge scene!
What shocked them even more was that, despite the siege and Liang Kui's desperate attack, the disciple calmly left.
During the process, many people were on tenterhooks for him. Although they didn't know if he was also on the dark side, his calm demeanor at this moment amazed them.
The following scenes were edited, and soon we saw everyone cautiously exploring when the disciple suddenly appeared from the mist, dressed in formal attire and leaning on a cane, like a boss in a game. He declared that everyone was qualified to challenge him and released a swarm of corrupting miasma bees, which was vast and powerful.
It's astonishing that the disciple is a top-tier expert in the Beastmaster system, but the situation reverses in the next moment...
So he was the one being chased!
He simply put on a show to make everyone mistakenly believe that it was his slave beast, and thus took the initiative to draw the fire.
They were completely manipulated throughout the entire process!
Even through a screen, you can feel its terror; to be its enemy would be utter despair!
However, as viewers, their first impression was...
The show was so entertaining!
If it weren't for the documentary-style filming, they would have almost thought it was a movie trailer.
However, it has been discovered that Liang Kui's adventure group has been completely deserted and left in ruins, so it can be confirmed that this guy is definitely dead.
What happened next left the audience even more stunned!
The stunningly beautiful queen bee mercilessly crushed a spiritually transforming beast tamer, displaying an absolute sense of oppression!
It made everyone feel the cruelty of the wild wilderness!
Although we know the photographer definitely came back alive, it must have come at a huge cost, right?
I never expected that this content creator would be such a hidden powerhouse!
Just as everyone was speculating, what they saw was the disciples making a powerful comeback, like a wonderful drama with an unpredictable ending.
Then came the [Heavenly Nun], who made an appearance that made countless people swoon; she was simply too beautiful!
The battles that followed showcased the power of top-tier monsters!
The Queen Bee is actually a pure-blooded dragon symbolizing corruption and strife. She has lived for a long time by using legendary skills, making her a true immortal monster. Even her disciples have become pawns in her hands.
"Is it going to end...?"
Everyone was on edge, their eyes glued to the screen. They never expected the disciple to have a backup plan, completely reversing the ritual.
The final act of removing his hat made everyone instinctively hold their breath, with only one thought remaining in their minds.
Elegant, so incredibly elegant!
It has captivated countless people.
Although in the final scene, the verdant dragon actively used miasma to shield itself from all prying eyes and conceal the contents of the transaction.
But they knew that the ultimate victor would be the disciples.
With absolute wisdom, they easily crushed their powerful enemy and reaped the fruits of victory.
"I hereby declare that from this day forward, my idol will be my disciple!"
"This is a true powerhouse, able to turn the world upside down with a flick of the wrist. I just wonder if he's from the dark side."
"I don't think so. It seems more like he's just someone who enjoys himself. In the end, he let everyone go simply because they participated in a funny drama. That's awesome."
"Could this guy be the leader of the Faceless Brotherhood?"
"Holy crap, now that you mention it, it really does look a lot like it. I'm suddenly starting to panic!"
"Whether it's true or not, after watching The Disciples, Lu Yu doesn't seem so appealing anymore, unless we get a few more episodes featuring him so I can reminisce!"
"I heard the sound of your abacus all the way through the Dark Star Region!"
"I heard it in the Machine King's Domain too!"
"I heard it all over Beijing!"
"..."
Thanks to their existing fanbase, the disciple's edited video immediately climbed into the top three of Da Yuan City's trending topics list and entered the top 100 in the entire border region upon its release.
Because it involved pure-blooded dragons, disciples, and miracle rituals, its popularity continued to surge, breaking into the top 100 of the entire alliance even faster than Lu Yu's time, and even reaching the 60th place.
This caused an even bigger sensation than Lu Yu's incident!
The direct result was that the disciples' clothing sold out immediately, and a bunch of admirers and imitators appeared, making it arguably the most successful product-selling video ever.
Besides that, one issue that's being hotly debated online is...
Are the disciples actually members of the Faceless Brotherhood?
Even the League was somewhat puzzled, since his codename didn't seem to be any of the Finger of God, but his shapeshifting ability was extremely similar.
His behavior is both righteous and wicked, yet he doesn't seem like a simple madman.
This left the alliance hesitant about whether to issue a warrant for the arrest of this individual, and ultimately they decided to postpone the decision.
On the desolate plains, the butcher looked at Eighth Finger, who was preparing baby food, and asked in confusion:
"Is this guy also from the Faceless Brotherhood?"
"No, this guy isn't a Facebreaker or a Feastman, but his shapeshifting ability is indeed very mysterious. Fortunately, he hasn't reached the point where he can replace the presence of everything, otherwise, compared to him, our Brotherhood of Faceless would be a bit like a bunch of stand-ins..."
The eighth finger watched the video and said excitedly:
"If only we could find him, bring him into the Brotherhood of Faceless, and see if he can take the other Finger of God's seat..."
The butcher suddenly said, "What if you're the one who gets robbed?"
"That……"
The eighth finger paused for a moment, then burst into wild laughter:
"Isn't it more interesting? It's my honor to be the protagonist of such a grand spectacle!"
Forget it, this guy is a lunatic!
The Butcher and the Green Dragon had this thought in mind and were too lazy to continue the conversation.
The latter, in particular, did not harbor much hatred towards the disciples; instead, he was more concerned about modern human technology.
It's amazing that a tiny machine can connect people who are infinitely far apart, allowing them to freely discuss, chat, and even share images.
This is the power of "technology"!
Humans are indeed life forms with limitless potential!
While the outside world was buzzing with excitement, Lu Yu had already finished his training program, and both Little Spider and Mouse had improved their strength.
Especially the mouse, whose Shadow Control skill is just one step away from [Peak of Mastery]. It only needs to squeeze the mouse clones a few more times to create the skill effect.
It has the potential to become the first [Peak of Perfection] super-tier skill!
Next, Lu Yu planned to go to the Mother River to see his flying coffin ship after successfully assembling the spiritual puzzle pieces.
What exactly has it become?
A long chapter of 6200 words! Please vote with monthly tickets! I was stuck on this all day and I'm not entirely satisfied with the current version, so I deleted a lot. I'll try my best to write a better plot. Thank you for your support!
