At the same time, those surrounding Leo Ray, including Taylor, tightened their grips on their weapons, ready for the final battle. The air was heavy, almost suffocating.
Battle was imminent.
Just as both sides were about to clash, Leo Ray had a sudden flash of insight and said: “Everyone, it seems that the enemies we are facing are not the same!”
Upon hearing Leo Ray’s words, the four subordinates couldn’t help but be taken aback.
Immediately after, Scarlett, the mage among them, quickly realized the situation and shouted: “I got it! This is the Nightmare Realm! We just need to say out loud the enemies we see, and the others will hear it, breaking the illusion automatically!”
“Half-Orc Army!”
“Tier 6 magical beast: Purple-winged Demon Dragon!” “Tier 4 magical beast: Emperor Raging Crab!”
“…Tier 1 magical beast: Hydro Slime.”
Except for the last barely audible mosquito-like voice, everyone shouted out their enemies.
The next second, Leo Ray was astonished to find out.
In front of him, all the half-Orc soldiers suddenly froze, and the sounds of battle ceased abruptly.
The whole scene instantaneously shifted from chaos to silence as if the pause button had been pressed.
At this moment, he could clearly see.
The closest arrow in mid-air was only a few centimeters away from the tip of his nose.
The sharp metallic arrowhead even reflected his own image.
At this sight, goosebumps covered Leo Ray’s skin in an instant.
For a moment, besides those still close to him, his subordinates.
Everything in front of Leo Ray began to blur.
At the same time, fragmented illusions appeared and disappeared, intertwining with the now semi-transparent Half-Orc Army.
The scene was as if several completely different worlds had suddenly overlapped.
The first to appear were more than a dozen enormous purple-winged, black-bodied dragons, each as large as an airplane.
At a glance, these massive dragons were extremely menacing, their faces alone being larger than the front of a train and comparable in handsomeness to Godzilla.
No wonder even a Tier 5 super strong person like Taylor would have a look of resignation.
Next appeared a swarm of giant red Emperor Crabs, each at least the size of a car, leaving people speechless at first sight.
Although their legs were like electric poles, their pincers were razor-sharp, and their shells were like armor, the sight was indeed terrifying.
But for some reason, staring at their enticing colors, Leo Ray couldn’t help but swallow his saliva involuntarily.
The last to appear were countless Hydro Slimes.
These blue, jelly-like creatures, slightly larger than a fist.
Apart from being covered in aloe-like slime, they actually looked quite cute, completely different from the previous images and seemingly posing no threat at all.
Subsequently, through the explanations of the flushed Scarlett, Leo Ray learned.
It turned out that everything he had just witnessed was nothing but an illusion.As Leo Ray had guessed, each person saw a different opponent.
The instigator was the Nightmare Realm that Scarlett had shouted out earlier.
This illusion is an automatic defense mechanism within the Barrier. Once entered, it will activate on its own.
The illusion can manifest each intruder’s deepest fears.
The more fearful you are, the stronger your opponent becomes, until you die in terror.
Hearing this, Leo Ray, who had narrowly escaped death, couldn’t help but feel a chill down his spine.
Well, he didn’t expect such an unbelievable thing in this other world, which almost made him stumble and fall here.
No wonder everyone’s initial reaction was so inexplicable.
Apparently, all of their teammates, who were facing different opponents, had been engaged in a cross-server conversation all along.
However, since he had just recently arrived in this world, his most feared enemy at this stage was indeed this Half-Orc Army.
As a Tier 5 Powerhouse, Taylor feared the Tier 6 Demon Dragon, while the Tier 3 sisters, Serena and Stella, feared the Tier 4 Emperor Raging Crab. All these fears were reasonable.
However, as a Tier 3 Powerhouse, Scarlett was most afraid of the harmless Tier 1 Hydro Slime. It was such a ludicrous fear that one couldn’t even begin to ridicule her…
Nevertheless, it was precisely because of this that he was able to find the flaw in the illusion before the unnecessary battle began.
Looking at Scarlett, whose face was flushed with embarrassment, Leo Ray smiled slightly. Instead of finding fault, he felt relieved.
Though her loyalty was only 85 points, she was still determined to fight to the death for him, which was quite surprising.
At this point, everything in front of them was nearly completely transparent.
Soon, a bright light flashed, and the scenery around them changed completely.
When their vision cleared, Leo Ray found himself and his four subordinates standing in front of a village engulfed in flames.
What was even more shocking were the countless Half-Orc soldier corpses strewn all around them.
At a glance, there were at least a thousand corpses scattered about. Most of the Half-Orc soldiers’ helmets had been cast aside, and their faces were filled with disbelief and terror. It was hard to imagine what they had seen before they died.
Without a doubt, these soldiers had died in the Nightmare Realm.
The scene was shocking to Leo Ray, an ordinary person who had just crossed into this world, sending chills down his spine.
“My Lord, I have used my magic to investigate, and this should be the real interior of the Barrier!” Scarlett said, holding the red Magic Book, her ponytail swaying without wind.
Having just shown an embarrassing performance earlier, Scarlett, fearing she would be looked down upon by her Lord, was now full of energy.
“That’s right, my Lord. I can also sense the presence of the Tier 3 Half-Orc Shaman in the village ahead, ” Taylor added, holding a huge sword and nodding with shimmering eyes.
“Understood,” Leo Ray coughed softly and said pensively, “Based on the current situation, the village ahead should be the main base of the other force hidden in this Barrier.
In any case, no matter what this force truly is, judging from their village being burned down by the Half-Orc Army, the strength of the two should be evenly matched, or perhaps even weaker than the Half-Orcs.
As I initially speculated, both sides have apparently exhausted their strength. Next, let’s put an end to this battle once and for all.”
“As you command!” Upon hearing Leo Ray’s words, the four subordinates unanimously agreed..
