To be honest, Ye Kai had greatly overestimated the strength and impact of the Nightmare Space invasion, yet he still felt a chill run down his spine.
He had seen through the Multifunctional Detector that around five to six hundred Contractors were desperately making their way toward him, including those who were almost about to breach Chongyang Palace.
Although he suspected that the reason Nightmare Space was paying such close attention to him might be due to the recent capture of fifty or sixty Contractors, witnessing it firsthand still left him shaken.
Was this really Nightmare Space's plan?
To deploy Contractors widely, identify the most threatening individuals, and then crush them with overwhelming force or sheer numbers?
If that were the case, they would have to act quickly. After all, Gaia had temporarily elevated the life levels of all Creatures in the world, especially certain individuals who had far surpassed their previous limits.
In this scenario, finding these newly empowered individuals and using sheer numbers to overwhelm opponents until they could no longer resist...
Ha, Nightmare Space was indeed formidable; their tactics were impressively smooth!
But should he eliminate these five or six hundred Contractors again?
"Lord God, I do not recommend capturing more test subjects. We are already under that person's scrutiny. If we stir up trouble again, it may not just be soldiers coming after us but true powerhouses!"
The deity suddenly appeared, his expression serious as he spoke. "We have enough Contractors now for our experiments. As long as I can fully analyze the Nightmare Mark, we can infiltrate their ranks. Wouldn't it be better to play around then?"
"Alright!"
Ye Kai sighed softly. He was indeed envious of the diverse abilities of the Contractors, but he understood the deity's point. He immediately ordered, "Pack up quickly; we need to move. After meeting up with Ye Yi and Ye Er, we'll find a place to hide."
Aside from that...
Even more frustrating was the fact that he could no longer establish the Faith Cult, which meant he couldn't gain more Power of Faith.
However, whether it was the attention from Nightmare Space or the terrifying Contractors he would encounter, none of it was a pleasant experience, as it could very well lead to exposure.
And once Nightmare Space got serious, it might even dispatch Demigods or come down personally to eliminate him!
Due to all these uncertainties, he couldn't continue to capture Contractors recklessly and had no choice but to prepare for a hasty retreat.
After all, his presence here had undoubtedly been discovered by numerous Contractors, so he had to flee.
Aside from the Contractors who had previously dared to venture between Zhongnan Mountain and the ancient tomb, crimson streaks of light appeared in the sky again, causing Ye Kai's heart to tremble.
Without packing anything, he directly ordered everyone onto the flying vehicle, which he then stored in System Space. Using his powerful Psychokinesis, he destroyed the villa and shot up into the sky, disappearing in an instant.
At this moment, the Contractors rushing toward Zhongnan Mountain learned that they had been drawn here because of a Martial Arts True Immortal, leaving them speechless.
Whether it was the terrifyingly powerful Martial Arts True Immortal or the fact that five or six hundred Contractors had gathered at once, even just one of them was enough to warrant their attention.
When this battlefield summons was issued by Nightmare Space, all Contractors within a hundred-mile radius began moving toward Zhongnan Mountain.
Unfortunately for them, this time they were destined to return empty-handed.
"Boom!!!"
Just as numerous Contractors were rushing toward the location, a storm suddenly brewed above Zhongnan Mountain. Blood-red lights flickered in the sky, with dark red lightning crackling ominously.
Especially the Chongyang Palace, which was originally set as a teleportation connection point, seemed to have undergone a complete transformation. The sky was no longer a serene blue; instead, it revealed a strange crimson hue of Radiance, accompanied by an overwhelming pressure.
"This... why does it seem like the power of Nightmare Space is materializing?!" Ning Hao muttered to himself in shock as he stood at the foot of the mountain, gazing up at the sky.
Suddenly, after a few moments of brewing, the crimson Radiance ignited, unleashing dark red lightning that struck down. The aura belonging to Nightmare Space sent a shiver through Ning Hao.
He regained his composure and realized that although this bizarre power was incredibly strong, for Contractors, as long as they did not resist it, there would be no danger. In fact, the dissipating sparks from the lightning could even heal their bodily injuries.
But just as this thought crossed his mind, his expression darkened.
He had just spent two life-saving trump cards, and that bottle of Comprehensive Recovery Potion was not easy to obtain. It required one hundred thousand reward points and a certain amount of honor points to purchase.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."
As Ning Hao's face remained grim and he clenched his fists in preparation to vent his frustration, swift figures rushed in. Within three minutes, over four hundred people had gathered here.
"Crack!"
"Boom!"
As soon as everyone assembled, an unbearable sensation of weightlessness enveloped them all. Then an immense and palpable energy descended from the teleportation connection point.
At that moment, all nearby Contractors heard a cold notification sound: "Warning!!!"
"Warning!!!"
“Due to unknown reasons, the target at the marked location has disappeared, and the mission has changed. The battlefield summons have ended... A new mission has been generated…”
“Notice: Completely occupy Zhongnan Mountain Chongyang Palace within a limited time to establish the Initial teleportation connection point.”
“Notice: Once the teleportation connection point is established, after being infused with the power of Nightmare Space Rule, all damage caused by Contractors within a ten-kilometer radius centered on this connection point will have an additional 8% Law damage effect and resistance against any abnormal states!”
“Notice: If the first teleportation connection point in this area is not established on time, it will be considered a mission failure!”
“Notice: After a mission failure, 100 to 1000 Contractors with the least Contribution will be randomly erased. After 48 hours, this teleportation connection point will trigger a backlash from the Dimension consciousness power in this area. Please prepare for defense, Contractors!”
……
“What… exactly is going on?!” Ning Hao was slightly taken aback, exchanging puzzled glances with several other Contractors who had just arrived.
The sudden notification startled all the Contractors, but they quickly began to ponder its implications.
Ning Hao, having some standing among the original attacking Contractors at Chongyang Palace, glanced at those around him and said slowly, “There’s no time left. We must complete the mission as soon as possible; otherwise, the erasure power could fall upon anyone.”
“Since the mission has changed, it’s clear that our next task is definitely defensive. If we don’t fortify the area around the teleportation connection point before forty-eight hours are up, it’s going to be very difficult to hold our ground afterward.”
Most people nodded in agreement upon hearing this.
