Academic gathering with a lich-Chapter 802 - 743: Dream Dragon Claudia

The colossal beam that fell from the sky was like a divine spear creating heaven and earth, piercing through the filthy sky, the tide of bloody and fleshly scattered monsters dissolving under this Holy Light, the voice of the gatekeeper echoing in the realm of dreams, the discomfort caused by teleportation magic receding, and the background music playing so passionately it could ignite the player’s health bar.

He was laughing, the massive magic power washing away the filth around him, the man loudly proclaiming the path of the supreme feeling refreshed and invigorated. His radiant appearance also startled the watching Magic Swordsman players, taking them a few minutes to realize the despicable reality that this person was cheating in the game. To be able to openly admit to cheating with such shamelessness, such thick-skinned individuals had never been seen before.

Not just the Green Dragon Claudia, who openly displayed disgust on her face, but other players behind her, those young Dream Elf also experienced a collapse of rationality as their dreams shattered. "We share the same profession as the Four Elders!" This once boast-worthy piece of news had lost its luster, and the young ones were contemplating how to hide such a disgraceful elder on our side.

The timely declaration of the gatekeeper made everyone aware that the final battle was imminent. Claudia slapped her sword scabbard, drawing everyone’s attention towards her in the faint jingling.

"Alright, we no longer need to discuss the despicable personal actions of the Dream Elder. This is a critical moment of life and death, my friends. We need to utilize all available powers, good or bad, in this war," Claudia stepped forward, passing by the cheating Elder, ready to respond to the administrator’s call to confront the world boss at the frontline. Claudia patted the shoulder of "Dream Daily Ten Thousand Words," with words of encouragement reaching the man’s ear. "You, who disrupt the game balance for your selfish desires, in normal times I would berate you with the harshest words, the strongest martial techniques. But now, in my heart, I cheer, having you is a fortune for us Dream Elves. Elder, let the nightmare boss experience your malice!"

Thinking herself stylish and leaving behind a silhouette, Claudia moved forward contentedly.

"Ow, ow, ow, ow!!!" Claudia turned around angrily, finding that the cursed cheat had actually grabbed her hair. He wore an expression of helplessness on his face and spoke under Claudia’s fierce gaze.

"I can’t do that; I cannot use the mod against the nightmare." "Dream Daily Ten Thousand Words" swiped his fingers through the air, tearing apart the disguise of the dream realm. Within the rift, numerous fine codes of magic power flashed under magical brilliance, and casually set commands transformed the man’s aura dramatically—Infinite life, zero cooldown, basic attack 9999—each modification immensely increased the Magic Swordsman’s threatening presence, likened to facing a boss, no, like facing utter despair.

"The administrator successfully lured the nightmare into a trap of order, I can’t let his plan fail. Make the world boss obey the game rules, and me, cheating to defeat him, there’s no such good thing. It’s like a dream; they let the nightmare sleep by making it obey the game rules, but nobody can remind it that it can break these rules."

Claudia was somewhat disappointed by the Elder’s response; she couldn’t help but initially have some dark thoughts, seeing the glaring LV16 above his head, she still couldn’t help but say, "So this doesn’t work, that doesn’t work, then you should just fight alongside us without using any cheats, can’t you fight without cheats?"

"Dream Daily Ten Thousand Words" didn’t get angry; he dodged Claudia’s retaliative punch and deftly jumped to the side, "I’m not afraid to fight, but I chose a better way to break through."

The Magic Swordsman Elder looked up at the sky, which was largely eroded, the contamination excised cleanly by the Holy Light like a surgeon’s scalpel, leaving behind the fragmented sky.

"This dream realm is interesting, those administrators are interesting, their countermeasures against third-party mods are interesting as well." His body began to glow, small dots of light starting to peel away from him, forming a verdant sphere of light, labeled with a title frame, "LV100 Supreme Power." 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

"The way monsters distribute their loot is very interesting. It split the power I used from myself into two entities, passing the dropped equipment as well as the Gold Coins, and Experience Points to the outputter. This game even edited a personal bank account for it!"

"My power defeated the monster, my power picked up the loot, my power leveled up."

"I ended up with an LV100 cheat. However, I’m still LV16 myself."

Elves players looking at the large sphere of light beside the Magic Swordsman Elder couldn’t help but laugh, what a stand-in proxy fight. This wave of dog planning really nailed it, setting up an account for cheats, decentralizing control.

"So what is this better way you mentioned?" Claudia stared at the light sphere, a strong impulse slowly brewing, becoming more intense as time went on.

"Experience points can’t be changed, but some things can be traded. I’ve swept across the entire dream realm with the Supreme Power, not only adjusting the combat power but also controlling the equipment drop. You understand what I mean." The man reached into his coat pocket, and when he pulled his hand out, an orange column of light rose into the sky.

Accompanied by a pleasant notification sound that haunts one’s dreams, Claudia received a trade request.

The surrounding Elves swallowed, and shouts of battle started outside, yet all was silent by everyone’s ears.

"That light... is it epic, or legendary... could it be, no way, could it really be..."

"A Divine Artifact?!"

Claudia, in shock, accepted the trade request, and the odd-looking unsharpened Magic Sword appeared in her hands, its hurricane-twirling effect was quite beautiful.

"So Lyle isn’t slacking off after all..."

The Green Dragon raised its head, just about to thank grandfather for the gift, when a great cluster of green light engulfed her body. A high chant resounded in her ears, older and more desolate than any Elven song, returning Claudia to familiar tastes.

The Dragonic pact flowed through her veins, as the guardian dragon and its Kin Clan reconnected.

[Dream to update ten thousand words per day]Bringing a satisfied smile.

"The power of the previous generation’s Dream Dragon, Irason, between dreams and waking. Drowning reality, tearing apart dreams. The grace once bestowed upon us by the dragon now passed on to its successor. Once again, we return under her wings."

"For us, this is like a cheat code."

"But for you, little Green Dragon Claudia... this is a full-level experience card."
