Chapter 1417: Confession

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Lin Yun was rather confused, wondering why the fat kid was trembling in fear as if he were going to be killed.

“Fat kid, I asked you a question. What are you scared of?”

The fat kid was so terrified that he was stammering.

“Give me a minute. I’ll surely think of it. The chief mentioned it. I remember that he mentioned a creature that entered the deeper world and escaped, but I don’t quite remember what it was…”

Lin Yun held his forehead. He would’ve killed the fat kid if he hadn’t been so stupid that he didn’t know how to lie.

Leopard Tail Worms were his best source of information at this moment, and none was more suitable than this fat kid. Other Leopard Tail Worms might not be so silly and innocent.

“Just take your time. If someone escaped from the deeper world in the past, it’s surely possible to do that right now. That world must’ve been even more challenging in the past…”

He examined his Natural Demiplane, and found that he couldn’t open it, even though they were still perfectly connected to each other. He couldn’t fetch anything from the Natural Demiplane.

It was like he was in an actual dream. Opening his Natural Demiplane was certainly impossible in a dream.

He wanted to ask Marianna if she knew anything, or maybe he could ask Enderfa, who had always been mysterious. Lin Yun didn’t know what he was even to this day. However, the guy had followed him for a long time, and Lin Yun knew that the guy was not malicious. Otherwise, the guy wouldn’t have chosen to permanently stay as the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel’s Magic Tool Incarnation.

Enderfa knew the previous ages much better than Lin Yun, as if he had personally lived through them.

But Enderfa didn’t appear after the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel was summoned, as if he didn’t exist in the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel at all.

The fat kid’s face was twisted as he searched his memories arduously. Lin Yun shook his head, and experimented on the materials he collected earlier with shabby alchemy devices.

He experimented on all the materials, and confirmed that they were real and not illusions, which gave him a headache. Even the broken pieces destroyed by the hoof were real too.

The trees, the beasts, the plants, and the ores were all real. Then was it possible that the leg was real too?

One of the Lord of War’s legs was sealed in the Kingdom of Nightmares. Lin Yun put on an awful expression at the thought of that. The Lord of War was a terrifying god that could still fight after being cut apart. His soul was different from others in that it had been completely melted into his body. Even his finger could fight on its own.

He’d better not catch the attention of that leg, or he might die a miserable death. Even if the leg was not real, the destruction that it caused certainly was…

Lin Yun waited for the fat kid for an hour. He thought for a moment, and took out some of the pastries in his space ring. He had prepared them for Xiusi and Marianna, but then Xiusi developed an interest in meat, and Marianna wasn’t interested in sweets, either, so the pastries had been left alone.

He offered a piece of cake to the fat kid. The sweet fragrance of the cake instantly stunned the fat kid who was having trouble remembering.

Not considering whether or not the food was poisonous at all, he simply grabbed the cake with his webbed claw, and chewed it.

After swallowing the cake, the fat kid grinned in delight, and didn’t seem as troubled as before.

“I remember! I remember! The chief mentioned that a guy entered the deeper world and escaped. He disappeared after he escaped. The chief said that he was an undead creature, and only had half of his body left after he escaped.

“The chief chased him, but was unable to catch him. The chief said that he just went missing. Then, the Lord of War’s leg fell down. After that, the undead creature was gone. The chief said that the leg killed him…”

Hearing what the fat kid said, Lin Yun was suddenly interested. An undead creature?

An undead creature that escaped after entering the deeper world? How could an undead creature be so smart?

Losing half of the body was nothing for an undead creature. As long as their soul fire wasn’t damaged, they wouldn’t die even if they only had their head left. They could switch to another body, even though it would weaken them for some time.

Still, Lin Yun was slightly reassured that some creature had escaped from the deeper world. However, the mention of an undead creature reminded Lin Yun of something, but he couldn’t quite think it through.

Was the undead creature the King of the Undead? That was probably the only undead creature capable of such a feat.

The event that the fat kid described had to be from a long time in the past. It was possible that it happened soon after the King of Nightmares died in the Plane of the Undead, and his kingdom melted into it.

Lin Yun had a strong headache as he pondered, but he couldn’t figure out anything just yet. He might not be able to escape even if he had the key to the Kingdom of Nightmares.

He was in the middle of an emergency. Given enough time, Agalon could surely escape on his own, but there was no time. If a few decades were wasted here, the Leviathan Plane would be conquered, and the scourge of the undead might reach Noscent.

The fat kid had dutifully answered every question he was asked. Also, he completely told Lin Yun what he heard, which was quite informative for him.

Having answered most of the questions, the fat kid looked at Lin Yun pitifully.

“I’ve told you everything. You won’t kill me, right? The chief said that no outsiders are trustworthy…”

The fat kid was too scared to continue as he talked.

Amused, Lin Yun patted the fat kid’s head, and took out a contract. He left his seal on the contract, and handed it over to the fat kid.

“Don’t worry. Sign this contract so that I won’t be hunted by your compatriots. You’ll be free after I leave the Kingdom of Nightmares.”

The fat kid didn’t dare to argue. He obediently opened his mouth, and stuck out three tongues, which rolled and left a seal on the contract.

Instantly, the contract glittered and disappeared. Lin Yun felt that the instinctive rejection of this world was gone. He fitted into this world.

It was just a simple temporary contract, but the content of the contract wasn’t simple. While the contract was effective, the fat kid had to try his best to help Lin Yun, and Lin Yun couldn’t kill him.

With this contract, Lin Yun wouldn’t be rejected while he stayed in the Kingdom of Nightmares.

The outsiders that didn’t belong to the Kingdom of Nightmares would surely be rejected, because they would cause influence on the Kingdom of Nightmares and affect balance. The Leopard Tail Worms were meant to solve the problem. At the beginning, the King of Nightmares took them here. After the King of Nightmares died, they carried on with their responsibility.

The outsiders would inevitably affect the balance. They might bring bad influence even if they just stood there and did something.

Supposedly, the easiest way to mitigate the influence was to kill a Leopard Tail Worm, and create an amulet with the horn on its head. Then, the rejection would be neutralized.

But that was not the best solution. There were fewer and fewer Leopard Tail Worms. Without the King of Nightmares, their reproduction was much slower than the speed of their getting killed.

Besides, if other Leopard Tail Worms detected the horn, they would chase him relentlessly. If he killed some of them, stronger ones would come. There was also the Leopard Tail Worm King, which was always two levels stronger than its opponent in the Kingdom of Nightmares

So, signing a temporary contract was the best solution and compromise. It also ensured that he wouldn’t be killed by Leopard Tail Worms while he was here.

After signing the contract, Lin Yun cut off the fat kid’s lifeless tail that had turned gray. Without the tail as a burden, the fat kid was at least able to move. Its body that was a dozen meters long shrank to the size of a hand. It looked like a green caterpillar that had three duck paws.

Still, he had an amusing chubby face, though he seemed quite upset.

Lin Yun took out another piece of cake, and gave it to the fat kid.

“Don’t worry. I’m just here to save someone. I’ll leave after I accomplish the task. If they stay here, they’ll destroy this place sooner or later. I’m helping you too. If you help me find them, we’ll leave this place, and your home will be safe. It will benefit both of us.

“You’ll be free after I leave.”

The fat kid squatted on Lin Yun’s shoulder, bummed. He ate the cake until his face was full of cream. After a few bites, he was so delighted that he didn’t care about the situation anymore.

Lin Yun had a direction now that the fat kid led the way for him. He didn’t have to look for the targets on his own, which would save him a lot of time. He knew how to find them, but it would take him a tremendous amount of time to get to the right place.

The periphery of the Kingdom of Nightmares was no smaller than Noscent in the age of gods. It was much bigger than normal planes. To find an entrance in this place could be quite time-consuming.

Lin Yun concealed himself, and moved in the direction that the fat kid pointed out.. After a few hours, he finally flew out of the range of the forest, and found himself above a lake, which was so huge that it almost looked like an ocean.
