Chapter 285 -284: Acquaintance Special Training
The meeting concluded,
Halfway on his way, Yi Chen turned into an alley and reverted to his original appearance. He was in no rush, nor did he report the issue with the meat supply to the organization.
As Yi Chen saw it, since the Nightmare intentionally leaked this information, even if he reported it to his superiors, it would likely have little effect on the Nightmare.
The meat supply might have been under control for dozens of days, with the meat that had been implanted with “Thought” already distributed throughout the city, and most of it having been consumed by the people.
Moreover, if the Nightmare could control this meat supply factory, it must have infiltrated other grassroots levels as well.
Reporting it would not only be futile, but it would also cause panic and disrupt the stability that Zion should maintain. It was best to maintain the status quo and find a solution before the Nightmare fully erupted.
Besides the game plan proposed by the other party,
he needed to find another more proactive strategy, and the “Nightmare Ladder” designed by Reagan was a good entry point.
Yi Chen need not worry about this aspect. Given Reagan’s personal ability and the assistance of the entire power station, they would surely come up with a decent Nightmare infiltration plan.
“What I need to do now is to take care of my own side. If the Nightmare wants to play a game related to ‘Thought Implant,’ I need to undergo specialized training during this time.
Jin’s brain tumor could also influence individual thoughts; I should call her to join me.”
Yi Chen returned to the apartment building and was about to go upstairs when
a finger reached from behind and gently tapped on his shoulder.
“William, I thought you had gone back to school. What brought you here again? I can’t prepare the meat today—I used up all the faux meat last night and haven’t had time to buy more.”
“Hmm? Didn’t you go out early this morning to buy faux meat?”
“Nope~ And I didn’t leave early, but instead I went out late last night.
William, remember the two little rascals we ran into in the hallway yesterday? Last night they were beheaded and hung at the door, spying on us.
I spent quite some time tracing the faint Sensing to investigate the controller behind it.”
“Did you find them?”
Instead of answering directly, Jin placed her hands behind her back and walked lightly to face Yi Chen.
She leaned forward and whispered in his ear:
“William, how about we run away early?
The method used by the enemy might be able to affect individuals imperceptibly. Although the Nightmare doesn’t seem to have fully erupted, many people within Zion have been affected.
The things parasitizing inside everyone might not be actual pathogens, but some elusive force that can directly influence the brain.
By the time the Nightmare truly begins to spread, all the weaklings bred in Zion will mutate, and then we’ll really be in trouble.”
Yi Chen was somewhat surprised; he hadn’t expected Jin to reach such a conclusion on her own.
“Jin, actually, I can perform similar mental assaults and possessions.
I thought about it all night and am prepared to confront the Nightmare with the same tactics. I’ll need your power during this time. Can you stay with me until the last moment before considering leaving?”
“William, why do you seem so spirited? Did you get hold of some information I don’t know about?”
“No, not really~” Yi Chen quickly waved his hand, “I’m just genuinely interested in the matter of the Nightmare and want to see what exactly the Root corresponding to the Nightmare is like.”
“Alright~, for your sake, I will stay a bit longer. Mainly, I personally don’t like these elusive, intangible enemies; there’s absolutely no joy in slaughtering and preparing meat.”
“Not necessarily, once Reagan creates a stable Nightmare Ladder and achieves sufficient Nightmare depth, we might encounter some very interesting and real formidable enemies.
But before that, can you accompany me to do one thing?”
“Sure.”

Kesimani – Prophet House
While Mr. Yuri was designing a brand-new component in the creative workshop, he accidentally tore the paper in his hands, and a sense of unease surged in his heart.
He called his personal maid, who pushed him downstairs to check the situation.
Just as he reached the hall, someone knocked on the front door.
Upon opening the door, two uninvited guests stood at the entrance, particularly the young man in front who made a ‘hypocritical’ bow.
Yuri’s scalp tingled even more at the sight of the two men.
“Good afternoon, Mr. Yuri! Can we discuss some matters with you?”
Confined to a wheelchair, Yuri immediately had his maid remove his gag and blindfold, and he glared at them with murderous eyes, but Yi Chen and Jin did not retreat even as their eyes bled.
“Speak, what is it! If it’s about mechanical design, we may discuss it, but I’m not free for anything else.”
“Could we go to the Underground Arena again?”
Upon hearing this, veins on Yuri’s cheeks bulged instantly, and various curses accumulated at his throat, almost bursting out like a tide.
It is to be noted that the damage to the maids caused by the two last time has not yet been fully recovered.
For this, Yuri reluctantly swallowed his pride and sought loans from the organization to purchase a batch of materials to replenish the number of maids.
“Cough cough! Although I have many maids here, rules are rules! This matter is out of the question.”
“No… our visit this time is not for killing training but due to the nightmare incident, we would like to undergo corresponding ‘Thought Training’. If any harm comes to the maids during the process, I will compensate at the original price.”
Yuri was slightly curious about Yi Chen’s words, “Nightmare… Thought Training? I did hear from Desline yesterday that you had a successful Nightmare Exploration at the Power Station. What do you intend to do?”
“I intend to use the maids as subjects for Thought Training, trying to implant thoughts in their brains, or enslave them.
If we can do it, perhaps we can use the same method to combat the effects brought by the nightmares.”
At this point, Yuri couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
With the gag removed, his laughter directly caused everyone’s eardrums to tear, and blood to flow.
“Haha~ thinking about altering the thoughts and enslaving my maids, such big talk!
Do you know that these maids’ brains have been modified into killing cores? The reason they can move, that they can monitor every corner of Zion for me, is because their brains can receive the scent of killing.
And it is solely my killing scent.
I possess absolute domination here, their thoughts cannot be influenced, nor can they be enslaved.”
“What if we give it a try, what if it works?”
“Pah~ If you really do manage it, the enslaved maids are yours for free, no compensation needed.”
Suddenly, as Yuri uttered these words, he paused for a moment, feeling as if he had fallen into a trap.
“Alright, thank you, Mr. Yuri!”
Yi Chen and Jin stepped excitedly into the familiar Prophet House and as they headed toward the familiar basement, Yuri stopped them:
“Hey~ since it’s just Thought level training, there’s no need to go to the Arena. My maids will take you to the Meditation Room, which is the special scene I use to monitor Zion and is more suitable for Thought training.”
Having said that, a maid with mechanical legs led the two men up the spiral staircase to the Upper District.
As soon as the two men were completely gone, Yuri’s expression changed as he released the seal on his legs and stood up straight.
At this moment, he seemed poised for an unprecedented major battle, his gaze on his personal maid terrifying.
“Begin selecting maids immediately, screening out those with the most complex brain structures, highest killing concentration, and best Sensing ability, and arrange for them to go! These two kids really don’t know what’s best for them.”
