Chapter 489: 222: Crazy Little Brother_2
Mark, ever so clever, quickly understood that Zhou Baiyu was asking if he could be of any help in the current situation.
Time was of the essence, and Mark spoke rapidly.
"Items in the inventory are essentially sealed, but the Treasures of the Gods are different. Especially the Dream of Void, as it has been tainted with the breath of a divine king," he said.
"No matter how powerful the master of this game realm might be, he can't completely suppress a divine item."
"Your eternal night within the dream serves you, and the eternal night within the dream has undergone Divine Enthronement. And I'm a medium between the dream world and reality."
"Through me, you can wield the power of eternal night, as well as my own power," he continued.
"But this requires your clear command, your consent to summon me."
"For this, the All Gods' Treasure, Void Dream, will be permanently and irreversibly damaged to some extent."
"But I can assure you that this experience will definitely be worth much more. The power of void, combined with my Power of Duplication, is just too perfect for facing such an unbeatable opponent right now."
"So, Zhou Baiyu, my good friend, will you summon me?" he asked.
This sensation was actually quite unpleasant.
Zhou Baiyu did not believe that Mark had turned into a "good person" after the assimilation dream.
Using the All Gods' Treasure, Void Dream, he had imprisoned the believers of the gods of duplication and plagiarism, locking them within his own dreams.
The dreams consisted of the very summoning campaigns Zhou Baiyu had experienced in the Advanced World.
In other words, Mark had grown alongside Zhou Baiyu.
It was hard to imagine what kind of monster Mark would become if the Treasures of the Gods broke and he broke free from his cage.
But now, Zhou Baiyu had to make a choice.
"I agree to summon you."
"Pleased to serve you, my friend," Mark's voice carried an inscrutable smile.
Mark had mentioned before that he would serve as a mercenary for Zhou Baiyu, offering many abilities, many forms of help.
As soon as Zhou Baiyu issued the mental command of consent to summon—
A crack appeared on the All Gods' Treasure Void Dream.
This first crack did not affect the use of the Void Dream, but it was hard to say whether another such crack might lead to an accident.
Mark's phantom appeared in front of Zhou Baiyu.
When the warden finally revealed his full power and stopped paying attention to those clones, he locked his gaze on Zhou Baiyu's physical body.
But the next second, he saw a bespectacled blond man.
Mark snapped his fingers, and a domain unfolded.
The warden's attempt to attack suddenly came to a halt.
As a game target... Zhou Baiyu suddenly became unselectable, unattackable.
"What's going on here?" exclaimed the warden in astonishment.
Why had the player's armor unit also become "invincible"?
Zhou Baiyu couldn't believe it:
"You can't take this ability out, can you?" he asked.
Now it seemed Zhou Baiyu wasn't worried about the warden anymore; instead, he was wary of Mark.
Mark could actually duplicate abilities from the game! And in just an instant?
If he could take this power back into his own dream, wouldn't even the eternally night enshrined in the dream realm fail to suppress him?
Mark said:
"My friend, why are you so cautious around me? Invincibility or instant kills, these abilities can only be used within the corresponding game realm. Unfortunately, I can't reach the game's master, so I can't duplicate this domain," he explained.
These words gave Zhou Baiyu a scare.
It turned out that if he were facing a follower of the God of Games and Entertainment rather than the warden, he would have created an unsolvable entity?
At the same time, Mark explained:
"Duplication takes a long time, but the game skills in this domain are different. You've probably noticed that, in the game, learning skills is just a click away, unlike in reality."
"So I can duplicate instantly because of game features," he added.
Mark had to reveal some weaknesses and truths to ease Zhou Baiyu's caution toward him.
After all, he hoped to be summoned more often. A single summoning was far from enough.
The warden realized that the opponent must have cheated, initiating a mutator.
He quickly started using the anti-cheat mechanism, inspecting Zhou Baiyu.
[No cheating!]
[No cheating!]
[No cheating!]
...
[No cheating!]
"Have you seen enough? We're normal players, law-abiding ones," Mark said with a smile, apparently not considering the warden a threat.
Everyone was invincible, unattackable units; no matter how strong your attack was, it could not hurt us.
Mark said:
"I did all this; I'm the real deal. For instance, I can do this too—"
Mark snapped his fingers, and the next second, he replicated one of the warden's minor abilities—War Trample.
With the shock from the powerful stomp, he stunned the surrounding enemies.
The warden was utterly astonished.
Of course, he couldn't figure out why, aside from a Mutator, anyone else could use active skills in the game.
All this was because Karlando had not undergone Divine Enthronement.
In a sense, behind Mark was a real god— the god of Void and Nightmares.
The aura of dreams always enveloped Mark.
Karlando was strong enough to game-ify demon emperors and all precursors with his domain.
But he could not affect the Treasures of the Gods that had been tainted with divine power.
The tactics displayed by Mark now had the warden's full attention on him.
