Nightmare Assault

Chapter 236: Infiltration

It peed…

The middle-aged man looked under the bed at the old dog, who was shivering. The man’s first reaction was not to lecture the dog but to look out the window at the big manor. Slowly, a confused feeling floated up in his eyes.

A few seconds later, he seemed to sense something. His pupils narrowed. His trembling pupils were filled with fear.

Inside the attic that was like a fortress, a large figure tried to curl into a small ball in the hidden corner. He hugged himself closely… just like when that person did those things to him. His tears fell silently. With red eyes, he stared at the wall before him. He was waiting for the only person with warmth to come to him.

“Big sister…” He wept with a hoarse voice. If the middle-aged guard were there, he’d noticed this large man was similar to the old dog shivering under the bed.

Just as the iron door was about to disappear, the door opened again. A small figure appeared at the door.

Instantly, the man curling up in the corner had his eyes lit up. He jumped up and stumbled towards the figure. His heart settled when he had the figure in his arms and when he could feel the warmth of that person.

“Sister…”

The person was tired, but she still raised her hand to gently caress the man’s face, ears and hair. She smiled, “Stop crying. Sister is back…”

The bear-like man cried harder.

The woman sighed helplessly. This would happen whenever the siblings departed from the nightmare and reunited in real life.

“If you don’t let go,” Su Xiaoxiao chuckled, “Your sister won’t be able to breathe anymore.”

Hearing that, Su An quickly let go. He knelt before her. The concern in his eyes was palpable. His large body formed a giant contrast with his watery eyes. The man looked so cute like this.

She smiled and pinched his nose.

Su An grinned and revealed a silly smile. Su Xiaoxiao’s love for her brother was undeniable. After their parents passed away, the siblings relied on each other in this large manor. It was the same in the nightmare realm.

“Sister,” On the night the biker woman disappeared, Su An whispered many things to Su Xiaoxiao as he leaned on her. Su Xiaoxiao took some time to fully understand him. He said that the aged woman was white with bits of grey, but her shadow was pure white or even transparent.

The aged woman and her shadow… were separate entities.

Su An noticed something was wrong with the aged woman when they first arrived. However, what he observed still shocked Su Xiaoxiao. How could one’s shadow be…?

Plus… according to her brother, he didn’t sense any malice from the shadow. That was why she was willing to leave him behind and go with Chen Ran.

However… the real thing that shocked and brought her despair was Su An’s next revelation. He looked at her weakly and continued to express himself. Su Xiaoxiao looked at him strangely until the latter nodded in confirmation.

Then, Su Xiaoxiao shivered. Fear spread through her. She lowered her head to stare at her feet. Her legs trembled uncontrollably. She tried to stop it. She hoped to regain control of herself before the other travellers noticed it. Clearly, she had failed. It was at that moment that Chen Ran targeted her.

Based on her brother’s description, they were sitting on a giant object. To be specific, it was a living creature with its own consciousness!

In her brother’s perception, it represented blackness. It was the same blackness that tainted the man called Hao Shuai.

As she tried to control her emotions, she asked her brother how big this… creature was.

Her brother became unusually quiet as he sunk into deep thoughts. Eventually, he slowly lifted his hands to make a strange gesture.

Su Xiaoxiao blinked as the chill course up her spine. The way her brother framed the way was different from others. Based on his description, he was talking about an iceberg. In other words, the island that floated on the sea was merely the tip of an iceberg compared to the entire creature.

It was scary…

Su Xiaoxiao’s mind was flooded with broken memories. Some of them were meaningless screaming and howling…

All of them exuded a strange sadness.

Su Xiaoxiao gasped for air like she was drowning in dark and oppressive water. Helpless, silent and alone… She could even sense the heavy gaze coming from behind her. The thing was staring at her… 𝙍ÂΝоᛒËṠ

Endless darkness enveloped her and infiltrated her. She was destroyed and reforged. She seemed to lose something. Some new things started to awaken in her body.

She stumbled backwards. Her brother subconsciously went to grab her, but she harshly pushed him back. She leaned on the wall where the iron door was moments ago. Sweat fell like rain.

“Sister.” Su An looked at her nervously. He didn’t know what to do.

“I… I’m just tired.” Su Xiaoxiao rambled quickly as she stumbled to her bedroom.

Before Su An could react, Su Xiaoxiao had already entered her bedroom and closed the door.

Su An was left alone in the giant attic…

No!

He was not alone!

Su An’s dim eyes lit up.

He stared at where his sister was standing earlier. His eyes slowly moved to the wall beside it… There was a shadow there that was similar to his sister.

The next second, the shadow disintegrated.
