Apocalypse Of All Races

Chapter 6: Dream Realm (2)

This had made Su Long so angry that he wanted to curse. Naturally, he wasn’t cursing Xia Longwu but rather at those recruiters. Why wouldn’t they take him?

Right now, it was said that Nanyuan City also had a small team of Longwu Guards stationed there. No one knew if it was true or false, but at the very least, Su Yu hadn’t met those people before.

“Great Xia War Academy, Longwu War Academy…the Great Xia Academy mainly provides generals and soldiers to the frontline, and it’s very difficult to return again. But as for the Longwu Guards…”

Su Yu’s gaze flickered. The Longwu War Academy was mainly the reserve force for the Longwu Guards.

The people from the Longwu War Academy would also go to the frontlines and their treatment was the same as the other war academies. However, there was a benefit for the Longwu Guards. Their main mission was to protect the land. In other words, they would stay in the Grand Xia Prefecture most of the time.

Naturally, once war erupted, as crack troops, the Longwu Guards would immediately enter the Allskies Battlefield.

If one said that the devil suppression army was the standing army of the Allskies Battlefield, the Longwu Guards would be the field army.

“They have fewer restrictions and greater autonomy. However, once war erupts, they will be fighting in the most dangerous assault and counterattack operations…”

“If I really want to join a war academy, I should join the Longwu War Academy.”

Su Yu muttered to himself. It was a pity that it was even more difficult to join the Longwu War Academy.

Because the Longwu War Academy was the military reserve force for Longwu Guards, their requirement for strength was slightly higher compared to the Great Xia War Academy.

Hence, Su Yu rubbed his cheeks and smiled bitterly. He must be fantasizing.

Even ordinary war academies would be tough to enter for him, let alone the Longwu War Academy.

Why was he thinking so much?

“The All-Races Sect actually dared to come to the territory of Great Xia, they must be courting death! Since the Longwu Guards have been mobilized, I wonder if we can see them here at Nanyuan…”

Su Yu wasn’t too worried. Those fellows from the All-Races Sect had to hide in the shadows and wouldn’t dare to reveal themselves out in the open.

They could only do some minor tricks secretly. Right now, the Longwu Guards were patrolling Great Xia, so those fellows would hide even deeper than rats. How would they even dare to show their faces?

Even if they really did show their faces, Su Yu wasn’t afraid.

Right now, almost everyone was a cultivator. In small districts, there might not be any experts in the Ten-Thousand Stone Realm, but plenty of them were in the Thousand Pound Realm.

In this area, other than old soldiers like his father who returned to serve the army, some didn’t respond to the summons, and some were over the age limit.

Hence, even if several fellows from the All-Races Sect came, they would merely come here to die.

Since those old soldiers could leave the battlefield alive, how could they not be ruthless characters with blood on their hands? They wouldn’t even blink if they killed someone.

With a single shout, seven to eight experts at the Thousand Pound Realm could appear immediately.

…

After Su Zu finished watching the television, he cooked a simple meal of noodles and ate them. He then washed up and cultivated the [Origin Opening Art] a few times before heading to bed early.

If he didn’t sleep early, he would wake early due to the dreams and have insufficient sleep.

Right now, Su Yu had already grasped a piece of information. He would usually have the dreams very early in the morning. Moreover, as he slept the best before midnight, he had to cherish the time.

…

Nightfall.

Darkness was everywhere.

Inside the dream.

A scene that had occurred countless times appeared once again.

A flying creature that was incomparably huge was currently hunting Su Yu.

“F*ck!”

Su Yu hated flying races the most. They flew extremely fast and he wasn’t able to outrun them no matter what.

It was generally alright if he encountered land-based creatures. Sometimes, he actually had the chance to flee and there was no need for him to be chewed on by the monsters.

However, against flying monsters, he had never succeeded in escaping. Every single time, he would wake up in pure agony from being chewed into pieces.

Hence, he hated these flying fellows!

This time around was no exception as well. The giant flying creature’s speed was extremely quick. In his dream, land-based obstructions had no effect on the flying creature, so the distance between them grew increasingly closer.

Su Yu fled with great speed while turning his head back for a look.

He wanted to identify whether he recognized this flying creature or not.

“Mn?”

There were many types of flying races, and Su Yu only knew slightly more than ten types. But this time around, he was very familiar with what he saw.

Although the monster was very illusory, he could faintly see a wart above the giant head.

“This is… a monster from the ironwing bird race!”

“Damn, after so many years, I finally met something I’m familiar with!”

At this moment, Su Yu was somewhat excited. He knew 18 types of all-races languages, but this didn’t represent that he had encountered those races before in his dreams. He would only learn the particular language if he faintly felt that the monsters were somewhat familiar-looking and that there were people in the Nanyuan Mid-grade Academy who knew the language.

However, although he had never met the ironwing bird race before, he knew their language!

Their language was one of the 18 ones he knew, and some people in the Nanyuan Academy also knew it. This was because, in the Allskies Battlefield, gods and devils would tame birds of this race and use them as their airforce.

Su Yu hurriedly turned his head and roared, “Weiyixijiuyun? (Why are you chasing me?)”

The giant flying bird didn’t reply. It was as though it didn’t hear anything, and it continued to fly over.

“Luyijiyou…!(We are friends!)”

There was still no reply.

Su Yu silently cursed. He knew he was dead when he saw the giant flying bird stretching its talons out and swooping over.

This should really be an ironwing bird, but it seemed that it had no intelligence. After all, it was merely an illusory shadow in his dream.

Kacha!

As expected, intense pain surged from his head as Su Yu’s head exploded from the grab. After that, the illusory dream realm gradually dissipated.

Su Yu knew he was going to awaken!

From the pain!

However, at this moment when the giant ironwing bird crushed Su Yu’s head, it suddenly screeched shrilly.

“Yuese*!”

Su Yu started. At the next instant, Su Yu suddenly awakened and his head was drenched in sweat.

“Moonlight…? (Yuese) No, not moonlight, it’s blood!”

Su Yu’s eyes were wide open. He had heard it clearly.

That ironwing bird did kill him, but in the end, it was very angry because it seemed that after killing him, it didn’t manage to obtain what it wanted.

“Blood!”

“It killed me because of my blood. Blood!”

This was spoken in the language of the ironwing bird race, so Su Yu understood.

In the past, he had similar experiences but couldn’t understand anything because those monsters didn’t speak in a language he knew.

But this time, he understood!

“Blood!”

“The other party wanted blood. What does this mean?”

“My blood? But sometimes when I was injured in my dream, my blood also flowed. However, there were no reactions? What’s going on exactly?”

Su Yu felt a headache. He ignored the nightmare earlier and his mind spun quickly.

“It needs blood, but there’s no way it can obtain any by killing me in the dream. My blood doesn’t seem to be what it needs either. Could it be…it needs the blood of a fellow bird from the same race?”

“Blood of ironwing birds?”

“If I had the blood of ironwing birds, what would happen?”

“A dream is still a dream. Even if I truly possess some bottles of their blood, can I really bring the blood into the dream?”

Su Yu rubbed his temples; even his hands were drenched in sweat.

He ignored all these. This dream…seemed to become somewhat clearer. It had been so many years, and this was the first time he felt that the dream realm could be analyzed.

He didn’t learn the ‘all-races languages’ for nothing. Even if he only understood a single sentence today, it was already sufficient.

“No, I have to do some testing no matter what. If I had the blood of the ironwing birds, what kind of change would there be? Also, this dream is over. I’m afraid I won’t encounter another ironwing bird tomorrow. Will it still be useful if I use their blood?”

“Nevermind!”

Su Yu abruptly sat up. He had decided that he would try it out.

He had been hunted to death for so many years in the dream realm, and he was already very tired and annoyed about it. Hence, he had to resolve this dream as soon as possible or there might be a psychological barrier in the future. No matter who you were, it was very uncomfortable to be killed every day.

“I will head to the Xia Trading Company tomorrow morning to take a look. They sell everything there, and they might have the blood of ironwing birds. After all, ironwing birds are quite commonly seen in the Allskies Battlefield. Everyone can purchase one if they want it!”

After deciding, Su Yu was no longer in the mood to sleep. He was filled with anticipation for the sky to turn bright. He wanted to buy the blood of the ironwing bird.

Even if there was only a trace of hope to resolve the problem of the dream realm, it was good enough. He truly had enough of such experiences. They were too tormenting.

[1] ‘Yuese’ was spoken in the ironwing bird language but stands for moonlight in the human language. MC thought the bird was speaking in the human language, causing the MC to be confused for a moment.
