Chapter 97: 96. Dream Entry Guidance, with Lin Da Appearing as the Main Character_2

This man was none other than the terrifying captain of the Primitive Adventure Team, Dark Shadow, Lin Da, whom Lulu remembered!

"Uh, what exactly is going on? I was clearly on the bed in my rental house, so why did I end up here when I opened my eyes, and even met the captain?"

Lulu's brain was in complete chaos.

She looked around incredulously, even the sky had changed, shifting from deep night to daylight.

The place she was in was the peak of a mountain, with the top leveled to create a platform as smooth as a mirror's surface, forming a circle with a diameter of about 100 meters.

Ten steps in front of her stood the man known by the title Dark Shadow.

"Why did you bring me here? Are you really... Lin..."

Lulu intended to irreverently call out the other person's name, but the deep-seated fear in her heart for that person had long since entered her veins,

The moment Dark Shadow glanced at her indifferently, she felt a chill in her heart and her limbs shake, swallowing the words 'Lin Da' and bitterly switching to a title of respect:

"Are you really... Lord Captain?"

Dark Shadow pondered for a moment before finally answering, "Yes and no."

"You can consider me a shadow of your subconscious, appearing to abide by your desire to grow stronger and guiding you to become more powerful in your dreams."

Lulu exclaimed in shock, "So, it wasn't you who brought me here, everything here is my dream, a figment of my subconscious?"

"That's one way to understand it."

Dark Shadow said, "Let's begin, the first training exercise, 1,000 push-ups!"

"Push-ups? Can this kind of training really make me stronger... uh!"

Lulu had not yet finished her retort when she felt an immense force press upon her, as if an invisible giant hand controlled her to lie down in the starting position for a perfect push-up.

"In the dream, I am omnipotent. I advise you to abandon those rebellious thoughts and obediently follow my commands."

Dark Shadow conjured a comfortable red sofa out of thin air, sitting in front of Lulu with his legs crossed and a steaming cup of coffee in hand, "Begin."

Although Lulu was unwilling in her heart, it seemed that she couldn't stand up without following his commands.

While doing push-ups, she was surprised to find that it felt as if she was bearing the weight of a thousand catties, with every bend of her arms being unbearably sore.

If it were ordinary push-ups, with her physique, she could easily do 1,000 of them.

But what about with a weight of a thousand catties?

Lulu's expression changed.

Time slowly passed, and atop the dream mountain peak, only the labored breathing of the girl and the sound of Dark Shadow finishing his coffee and then munching on sunflower seeds could be heard.

Sweat had already drenched the ground beneath Lulu, outlining a girl's silhouette.

Under the burden of a thousand catties, Lulu showed signs of fatigue.

As she reached the 500th push-up, she couldn't help but stick out her tongue like a canine, panting heavily.

At that moment, Lulu still had the strength to manage her expression; she stuck out her tongue but not too much, and deliberately kept her breathing subdued, not letting the man lounging on the sofa look down on her.

But by the 900th, her strength was depleted, leaving her gasping for air, unable to care about how she looked.

Lulu breathed heavily, her body shaking like a sieve, letting her tongue hang out, her eyes rolling back slightly.

She hadn't experienced such intense exercise in three years, and she was so exhausted she almost fainted!

"I can't... I can't keep going, let me stop," Lulu said, her voice trembling.

"Continue," came Dark Shadow's terse reply.

At the 950th push-up, exhausted Lulu even employed her wolf tail for assistance, stretching it out from behind her to prop herself against the ground for support.

"I can't go on..."

"Continue."

The 970th.

"I really can't go on..."

"Continue."

No matter how much she begged, she received nothing but cold replies like those from a magic-powered machine.

This Dark Shadow of her dreams was exactly like the captain she remembered!

Cruel, merciless, eliminating any team members who couldn't make it.

'I must not be looked down upon!' Lulu thought, fuelled by a complex emotion of defiance mixed with resentment, and finally completed the 1,000 push-ups.

The moment she finished, the girl collapsed on the ground with a thud.

Every ounce of strength in her body had been drained!

"Not bad," Dark Shadow stood up and, as if rewarding a puppy, patted Lulu's fluffy ears.

"What are you doing!" Lulu's eyes widened, defensively extending her claws as if facing a great threat. Experience new stories on m v|l e'-NovelFire.net

"Just reminding you, the next training is about to begin."

Dark Shadow said with a smile, his finger hooking, "Come, defeat me."

A question mark emerged above Lulu's head.

If defeating him was possible, members of the Primitive Adventure Team would have done it long ago.

It was precisely because Dark Shadow was an invincible entity that nobody dared to defy his autocratic actions.

After weakening, Lin Da, she was able to easily defeat him.

But the Dark Shadow at his peak?

Lulu, feeling troubled, retracted her claws and said with her head down, "How could I possibly win against you, forget it, I should go back, how can I wake myself from this dream?"

She pinched the soft flesh on the inside of her thigh hard, but other than the pain that made her frown, it was of no use.

The Dark Shadow shrugged, "You've got to stay here until I say you can go."

...

Half an hour later.

A pale blue figure, like a beaten sack, was sent flying.

Lulu took a punch to the abdomen, and without the other party exerting much effort, but when she touched it with her hand, she found a huge black hole had appeared on her belly!

She was back.

Being harshly taught by the captain in the Illusion Technique space, the days she was trampled underfoot.

She was back!

Lulu's body trembled, as her fear relapsed.

Originally thinking that becoming a Witch would wash away her shame, but facing this shadow in her heart, even in her dreams, she was still humiliated by the other party!

Lulu lay on the ground, dazed, her gaze fixed on the sky, vacant, her consciousness also gradually drifting away.

"Resurrection Technique."

The Dark Shadow used a game-exclusive skill, a golden Magic Circle of holiness, falling onto Lulu's 'corpse'.

In just a moment, Lulu opened her eyes in confusion, clenched her fists, feeling the Battle Qi replenished, and her life energy extremely vigorous.

"Continue."

She hadn't even reacted yet when a dark figure suddenly appeared by her side.

Not even using the 'Destruction Magic Sword' on his back, he just punched her in the head.

-99999.

Lulu was dead again.

Actually, Lin Da didn't want to treat her so cruelly.

But to fully utilize the Potential Guidance Coupon, he had to instruct with all his might. A single moment of leniency would result in 10,000 Diamonds wasted.

So, every move was for Lulu's benefit...

Another half hour passed.

Lulu died 56 times.

Almost twice a minute.

Once dead, the Resurrection Technique would be applied, waking her up at full health to continue being hit.

Even with a will as firm as Bedrock, Lulu was baffled by the beatings from the Dark Shadow.

On the 57th time, she angrily wiped away the tear that almost fell from her eye, took a deep breath, and intensely focused on the movements of the Dark Shadow.

The punch came, Lulu dodged by swerving to the side, and delivered a fierce spinning kick at the Dark Shadow.

However, the opponent scoffed disdainfully, grabbed her ankle, and slammed her on the ground as if swinging a sack!

Lulu's field of vision plunged into darkness.

Before her consciousness faded, she heard the voice of the Dark Shadow by her ear:

"Holding on for two moves counts as progress, that's enough guidance for today."

Guidance for today?

Could there be more after this!

Lulu screamed inwardly, distraught. Through today's training, she had a deep realization of her arrogance, that even as a Witch, she could never be an opponent for the Dark Shadow!

The girl let out a terrified 'ah' as she opened her eyes on the small bed in the rental room.

"Eh? Gone, gone?"

Looking around, this was Lin Da's small rental room.

She sat up, sweating profusely, touched the bedsheets, which felt as though soaked by the Great Water.

The events in the dream were too real...

Back again?

Lulu touched her neck in confusion; it wasn't broken, and then she looked at her abdomen, which also didn't have the terrifying hole.

The old Magic Hanging Clock on the wall showed it was 1 a.m., while she had gone to bed at about 0:50 a.m.

The flow of time in the dream was slower than in reality!

"Could those trainings in the dream really help me get stronger?"

Lulu murmured to herself. After she spoke, she froze suddenly, clenched her fist, feeling the surge in her Battle Qi, and was dumbstruck.

It seemed... she really had gotten stronger.
