“Secondly, Tonnies mentioned the tribe on the mysterious island, didn't he? He said the Grand Duke Ferdinand met the tribe during his younger adventures, right? Actually, that's just a small part of the truth. The other part of the truth was that ever since Grand Duke Ferdinand met this mysterious tribe, he'd pay the tribe a visit every trip.” The man with the blonde hair quickly revealed the second important point.

 Tang Ling remained quiet, but the outline of the whole incident was getting clearer.

 “Thirdly, it's about the Santos Demon. Tonnies mentioned the Santos Demon's home, Marco Village. Since it's the demon's village, how could he not be attached to the village? I mean, even if the demon doesn't have descendants, he would at least have a family, wouldn't he? Tonnies didn't mention this. I'm not sure whether he knew about it or not, but based on what I know, the village chief, who was said to be possessed, is related to the family of the Santos Demon.

 “As for how deeply related he is, I can't tell you that yet because I have to get more evidence to back my words up before I can give you a solid answer.” The man with the blonde hair was panting heavily at this point. It seemed like he could no longer speak at the moment.

 Tang Ling did not respond but his mind received a new message.

 'Main mission 2: investigate the case of the Santos Demon. Completion rate: 90%. Without a doubt, you've completed this mission decently. You will be given an A rating and the reward is 3 Dream Coins. Do note that unlike the main street mission, you can choose to perfect this mission during your next entry.'

 Tang Ling tightened his lips. He was certain that in order to achieve 100% completion rate, he must find out the relationship between the village chief's family and the Santos Demon's family.

 It was not necessary to learn this particular point from the man with the blonde hair because Tang Ling had yet to reach that level of difficulty.

 It was actually easy to understand. The danger level of every main mission was never low. During his first main mission, he completed 60% of it because he placed himself in a dangerous position and tried to fish for more information.

 During the second time, which was then, his completion rate was 90% because he made it to the end and saved the man with the blonde hair from danger.

 Although it might seem like an easy mission to complete by simply speaking to the right people, the danger that was hidden in between the line was tremendous. It was one of the traits of the main mission.

 Speaking of which, the reward of this main mission was ridiculously depressing. While an A rating in the main mission only rewarded him with only 3 Dream Coins, Tang Ling did not want to be calculative.

 It was possible to receive multiple rewards in a main street mission, after all. Receiving an A rating might reward him with 3 Dream Coins, and if he reached S rating someday in the future, he might receive 5 Dream Coins or more. The sum of the rewards was actually quite prominent.

 The most important thing was whether he could continue the mission in his next entry.

 “Fine. I get it. Please try your best to stay alive. We'll meet again in the future.” Tang Ling then extinguished the cigarette in his hand. He then looked at the man in the eyes with a ridiculing smile. “However, I have no idea why you insist on telling me all this. Let me guess. Is it because of the Demon Infant?”

 The man looked even more bitter after Tang Ling's comments. His lips shuddered, but he failed to utter a single word.

 Tang Ling was not in a hurry either. This main street mission was complicated, and he had yet to form the outline of this world, so he ought to take it slow and steady.

 He carried the man back to the Rose Knight and then hinted more reminders to Fatty before he left. He believed that with Fatty's intellect, he would certainly understand the hints.

 On top of that, it had been seven to eight minutes, and Tang Ling hoped the reinforcements from the church were still around. When the thought of counterattacking came into his mind, he was bathing in excitement. He felt that this dream progressed a lot smoother than the previous once since his knowledge of the Dream Domain had increased accordingly.

 Let the onslaught begin!

 Tang Ling did not want to face the endless pursuit. His enemies should be the ones being pursued by him endlessly, should they not?

 Watching Tang Ling sprinting away, Fatty's mixed feelings rumbled. He never thought that he would meet such a special teenager in this dream entry. Through all sorts of coincidence, Fatty managed to find a sliver of his own confidence and pride back.

 Next time…Ah!?

 When Fatty thought of the next dream entry, he squealed in shock. He was frustrated because he did not form any contract with Tang Ling like a party contract, a partner contract, or whatnot. He might not be able to meet the Tang Ling next time!

 The Dream Domain was actually a single world, and if the two of them were separated far away, then…

 With that in mind, Fatty wanted to call Tang Ling back, but the latter had sprinted away from his sight. Where should he look for Tang Ling now?

 Dammit! I guess I can only find him back in the real world. Tang Ling, I'll remember you. I swear I'll find you when I get back!

 Tang Ling's strength was only a little shy from his prime form, and the strongest enemy in the city had already been killed, plus he had mastered a new form of battle.

 The world originally tipped the scales of balance against Tang Ling's advantage, but the weight of difficulty was broken one after another. Finally, he was getting closer to victory.

 He could no longer count how many Fallen Knights or black-robed clergies he had killed. As for the three white-robed apologists who arrived with the bishop, Tang Ling had gone after them first when he started his onslaught.

 The unfortunate thing was that he must kill seven white-robed apologists to receive a reward, but he failed to locate another three to satisfy the requirements.

 What should he do?

 Tang Ling always had a clear mind. The one facing endless pursuit now was the Fallen Star Church and not him. He could very well kill his way to the headquarters in the city where there should be newer and more challenging enemies waiting for him.

 The strong stretchable tactical backpack with all kinds of spoils inside was his fuel to continue battling. It was a pity that the high-quality backpack that he got from Boss Huang was at full capacity and was already as tall as himself. He had gone crazy with the onslaught, so the main missions were temporarily forgotten.

 Tang Ling was making his way to the headquarters of the Fallen Star. Those unlucky escapees who ran into him would die by his merciless knife.

 Slowly but certainly, Tang Ling somehow earned himself the title as a slaughterer in this chaotic city.

 He did run into people of other factions along the way, and according to his calculations, he met at least four different factions. However, according to the setting of the world, only the Fallen Star Church wanted to hunt him down. Therefore even if he ran into other factions, most of them decided to let him go past since they did not want to cause unwanted trouble.

 Tang Ling was getting closer to the headquarters, and it had been four hours since he started his onslaught on the street.

 This dream was an exhausting one. Other than the prison time at the start of the dream, Tang Ling had been fighting ceaselessly. However, the more he fought, the more excited he felt, and because of his constant replenishment of vicious beast meat, his stamina was maintained at a healthy level.

 It was as though he was born for battle.

 At the Fallen Star's headquarters, the saintess at the highest level had received all sorts of news, none of which were good.

 The most important Demon Infant had died while the red-robed bishop of the city had also perished. The troops were almost annihilated and the dead body of the Demon Infant had been taken away.

 It was all done by a single person, an outsider! This was undoubtedly the worst situation that could happen. The outsider was an enemy of the church this time!

 Nevertheless, the saintess did not look nervous. The Demon Infant was important but was not the one and only. Its death was not the worst. At least, if the Fallen Star Church could not get the body, the other factions would not get it either.

 At that instant, the mirror behind the saintess rippled like the surface of water, accompanied by the murmuring of water.

 As the murmurs entered her ears, the saintess heaved a breath of relief. She turned around and stood in front of the mirror. When the ripples in the mirror calmed down, a figure in a white meteoric robe and a mask appeared in the mirror.

 “Donna, I've received your updates,” said the figure in the mirror.

 “Lord bishop, what's your opinion on this?” The bishop's status might not be higher than the saintess, but the bishop from the main cathedral in the holy city was different, so even the saintess responded in reverence.

 “Take it into your own hands. Cut the loss! Killing an outsider might be even more meaningful. It's Bishop Orphy's orders,” said the bishop.

 Take it into my own hands?

 The saintess was stunned. She instinctively rejected the suggestion because the parasite within her was not something she had control over, at least, not with her current powers.

 If she killed the outsiders herself, the consequences might be unpredictable. However, if it was Bishop Orphy's order and she did not have a reason to disobey it since she was the saintess.

 Unless she could truly control her parasite, only then could she be considered as the real saintess. Her position in the church would be strengthened, and from there on, she could rise to higher ranks.

 “Do you disagree?” The bishop in the mirror was slightly annoyed.

 “No, I'll go, but I cannot guarantee the death of the outsider,” the saintess voiced her own concerns. She was unable to evaluate Tang Ling's strength for now since he had annihilated all the combatant forces of the city headquarters.

 “If you do, that'd be the highest level of loyalty to the church,” said the bishop. He added, “Is there anything else?”

 “That will be all, Lord Bishop.” The saintess ended the conversation.

 The lighting inside the quiet and dark room flickered because of the light from the outside. She calmly twisted the ring on her thumb.

 A few seconds later, a small door in the room was opened and a strange girl holding a doll appeared. She seemed to be sleepy as she rubbed her eyes during her entrance. She asked in a clear but strange tone, “Mother, did you call for me?”
