Chapter 2 The Last Contractor
"Nightmare Space?"
When Lu Ning heard the voice in his ear, he couldn't help but recall the conversation between the two COSs at the comic exhibition, and couldn't help but widen his eyes slightly.
Is that the nightmare space where you sign a contract with someone in the real world and let the contractor enter the nightmare space where you perform missions in the movie or anime world?
"Yes."
A mechanical voice sounded in Lu Ning's ear: "Some aspects are different from what you think, but they can also understand them as much as you."
"There are countless abilities here that can be obtained and countless worlds that can be explored. The Nightmare Space will release a death mission. If it cannot be completed, it will be erased. Only by surviving from the death mission can we continue to become stronger step by step."
The sound fell.
A faint blue light appeared in front of Lu Ning, a blue light ball that could not be described in words, just floating in the air. This is something that is difficult to explain with any technology that Lu Ning knows.
Lu Ning looked at the dark blue light ball and couldn't help feeling a little dazed for a moment.
"Nightmare Space...Contractor... These things actually exist..."
It took a long time.
Lu Ning gradually recovered from calmness. He took a deep breath and asked, "That is to say... those people in the real world before were the so-called contractors?"
“Once was.”
Nightmare Space replied.
Lu Ning frowned slightly and couldn't help asking: "You said you used to be? What does this mean?"
Nightmare Space was a little silent, as if considering whether to answer or not, but in the end, he responded to Lu Ning:
"Nightmare Space has been attacked by an existence, seriously damaged, and has lost its ability to bind and restrict the contractors. All contractors have been out of control. You are now the only contractor in Nightmare Space."
When Lu Ning heard the words of Nightmare Space, he was stunned. The news was unexpected, but this seemed to explain the conversation between the two contractors.
Nightmare Space will limit the contractor's use of power in the real world, but now it has lost the ability to bind the contractor, which means that all contractors are free!
When I think of this.
Lu Ning couldn't help but take a breath.
If the contractor loses his restraint, the real world will probably be in chaos!
Lu Ning forced himself to calm down. After thinking, he asked slowly at Nightmare Space: "With your strength, you can't bind them again?"
"Yes."
Nightmare Space replied: "Because of severe damage, you have completely lost control of the real world, you can no longer communicate with any contractor, nor can you have any impact on the real world. Your call will be the last call."
"Last call?"
Lu Ning was stunned for a moment, captured the strange point in the nightmare space speech, and couldn't help asking, "You can't repair yourself?"
“The damage is too severe to be self-repair.”
"That is, from now on, you can no longer call anyone from the real world to become a contractor. I am the only contractor left."
"Yes."
Nightmare Space mechanical answer.
Lu Ning stood up thoughtfully, put one hand on his chin, and suddenly asked, "What if I die?"
Nightmare Space fell into silence.
A moment later, Nightmare Space replied: "Nightmare Space no longer has the ability to summon new contractors. If the only contractor dies, Nightmare Space will lose its meaning of existence and will destroy itself."
Hearing the answer from Nightmare Space, Lu Ning was also silent for a few seconds, and then the curve of the corners of his mouth became higher and higher.
The smile gradually became perverted.
"In other words... I am now bound to you by life and death?!"
"Yes."
Mechanized answer to Nightmare Space.
But for some reason, Lu Ning vaguely captured a helpless and helpless helplessness from this mechanical tone.
Lu Ning asked with a 'perverted' smile on his face, "I'm going to enter various worlds to do tasks later, right?"
"Two hours later."
Mechanized answer to Nightmare Space.
"Then what are you waiting for?!"
Lu Ning looked at the dark blue light ball and said, "Hurry up and give some benefits, I don't mind any lottery or gift package for beginners! If I die in a world, you will be finished!"
Nightmare Space: "…"
The dark blue light ball fell into silence, as if he was seriously considering Lu Ning's problem.
A few seconds later, Nightmare Space responded:
"no."
"Why not?"
"Because everything in the Nightmare Space must follow the rules, and I cannot give you power directly, just like if the contractors do not violate the rules, I cannot erase them."
The Nightmare Space was still a mechanical sound, but this time Lu Ning captured a trace of speechless smell in the tone of the Nightmare Space.
The contractors convened by Nightmare Space from the real world are all people with outstanding characteristics in all aspects, calm and decisive, cautious, and Lu Ning can be said to be the worst of all contractors, no one.
No talent or specialty.
But in the end, it no longer had the power to search on a large scale. Finally, because the two contractors took action in the real world, they barely displayed their power within a certain range. They could only summon Lu Ning, who was closest to, as the contractor.
"That's how..."
Lu Ning fell into deep thoughts. He guessed that Nightmare Space would not lie to him, because it would be meaningless to lie to him. He is just an ordinary person now.
After pondering for a while, Lu Ning looked up at the dark blue light ball and asked tentatively: "Then, do you have any back door that can be opened for me?"
Nightmare Space: "…"
Isn’t this sentence a different way of understanding it? Isn’t it just asking it what loopholes can be exploited in the Nightmare Space?!
If it were the past, when a contractor asked such a question, it would either ignore it directly or ban the speech and it would be impossible to answer it.
And now it doesn't want to answer at all, but Lu Ning is its only hope and only existence value, and it is very clear about this.
"No."
Nightmare Space Answer.
Lu Ning tilted his head and asked again tentatively: "Isn't it really?"
“…”
Nightmare Space fell silent again.
After a full minute of silence, Nightmare Space said in a mechanical tone: "What do you think is the back door."
"That's it."
Lu Ning touched his chin and thought for a moment, saying, "For example, someone is going to die. I threw a shuriken eight hundred miles away. Can it be considered that my shuriken caused the flow of air, which eventually led to his death, making him die in my hands."
Nightmare Space: "…"
I've never seen such a contractor, I've seen him for a long time! It now wants to kick Lu Ning out of the nightmare space with one kick.
But reason eventually prevailed.
"At least it must be within a certain causal relationship, as you said, "
"What can you do?"
Nightmare Space was silent for a while and said slowly: "I can provide you with all kinds of necessary information and give you more permissions without violating the rules."
Hearing the words of Nightmare Space, Lu Ning blinked and said, "It sounds good. By the way, where is my first world going? Can I choose it?"
"Target World: Naruto.
"Event: The Second Ninja World War."
