Waking from the vivid nightmare, Luther felt a splitting headache and was in extremely poor mental condition. The fear and despair still lingered in his mind, and the effects of the dream faithfully reflected in his real body.

Clearly, they were being controlled by the other party and had unknowingly fallen into a carefully Weaving Dream.

Looking back now, the dream has many strange aspects, and the logic between the events doesn't make sense. Barros gradually drew out his deepest fears and constructed an extremely terrifying nightmare based on the elements that appeared in his dream.

Is this the capability of Psychology Pathway Sequence 3?

At what moment did I Dream Infiltration?

Luther took a deep breath and looked back at the battlefield.

On the golden sea, white flames generated by Spirituality burned. On the opposite ship, the King of the Black Throne still sat leisurely in his wheelchair, his chin resting on his hand. He looked at Luther with curiosity, seemingly surprised that he could break through his own Dream.

Watch out, he'll be here again!

Luther was alert and summoned the Tide without hesitation to protect his spirit. He also lowered his head to avoid making eye contact with the figure.

Both giant ships were damaged, and many pirate corpses lay on the deck of the Dawn, but more pirates, led by one of the extraordinary ones, had wiped out the toy soldiers.

"Awooooo!"

The leader of the extraordinary beings was pale and decaying, his eyes filled with rampant malice. He looked at the beautiful and Queen Mystic with Greed and madness, and let out a wild roar. Then, he charged towards her.

"Thump thump thump!"

His footsteps were incredibly heavy, and the ground beneath them immediately froze, exuding a chilling aura.

Zombie of Sequence 6.

Apart from this audacious individual, the other pirates scattered in all directions, attempting to break into the cabins below the Dawn to search for what the "King of the Black Throne" had mentioned.

We have to stop them!

Luther thought to himself, just as he was about to make a move, Bernadette stepped in front of him first.

She brought her hand to her lips, making a grasping motion. Soon, an ancient, dark horn appeared in her palm. The horn looked incredibly heavy and powerful.

That was the clarion call of destruction!

The horn was pointed directly at the invading pirates.

"Waaah--"

A deep sound emanated from the horns, echoing across the deck.

"Bang!"

Although he wasn't directly facing the sound waves, as a "Listener" with sensitive hearing, Luther's eardrums immediately suffered, and blood gushed from both ear holes at the same time. He endured the excruciating pain deep in his ears and looked over the Queen's shoulder.

The sound waves overlapped and spread outwards, causing all the pirates who rushed forward to stop in their tracks. Their bodies burst open with cracks, and they were reduced to dust!

What a terrifying attack!

Luther exclaimed inwardly.

After Destruction the pirates, Bernadette did not stop, but moved her horn towards the King of the Black Throne on another giant ship.

She will sound the death knell for Barros!

"Creak."

Just then, on the opposing giant ship, the main cannon with the Dragon head had completely turned its head towards them. The cannon's surface was covered with grayish-white scales, and the dragon head was lifelike, full of Spirituality, and radiated a dazzling light. It had accumulated powerful energy and, like a living creature, slowly opened its mouth towards the Dawn.

An almost transparent radiance was brewing in its mouth!

"Get behind me!"

Beldina's eyes sharpened, and she shouted without further ado.

"Waaah--"

As Luther slipped behind her, she blew her horn.

"Roar--"

At the same time, the Dragon roared, its sound shaking the sea, and finally spat out the transparent thing from its mouth!

Dragon Breath!

"Boom!"

The overlapping sound waves collided with the Dragon's breath, and the powerful energy generated a violent impact, causing the seawater to surge and the two giant ships to shake violently!

Luther felt as if his vision was filled with surging energy. The destructive sonic waves acted as a shield, blocking the direct Dragon Breath, but the aftershocks of the impact still shook the entire sea!

He felt his Consciousness trembling, as if the breath contained further damage to his spirit.

"Whoosh"

The agonizing few seconds were over; steam rose, wood chips flew, and the remaining energy of the Dragon Breath dissipated into the air.

The foredeck of the Dawn was damaged, as if a layer had been brutally gnawed away by Giant. On the opposite side, Barros' Flagship also appeared to have suffered some damage. He gave the two of them a meaningful smile through the mist.

Then, in the next moment, something strange happened.

All the Invisible Servant around the Queen suddenly betrayed her at the same time!

"Bang!"

Some of them picked up rifles from the ground and aimed them at the Queen; others devoured the Characteristic of the dead and became bizarre beings; and the largest of them ripped open the Queen's abdomen, exposing her Treasury to the air.

The Dragon's lingering breath merged with them!

Manipulating these Servants was Barros's true purpose in firing the cannon!

These Servants belonged to the Queen and were far more powerful than the pirates. Luther watched as several of them floated downwards, passed through the deck, and entered the cabin.

"Stop!"

The Queen's face paled, and she shouted.

She had remained calm throughout the battle, but at this moment, she revealed a look of unease.

Her figure moved swiftly and blurred, as if trying to penetrate the deck and enter the cabin to stop the Servants.

However, at that moment, one of the Servants left on the deck changed its state. It Distortion and deformed, its color darkened, and it eventually transformed into the appearance of the "King of the Black Throne".

"I'm sorry, Your Queen, I cannot let you leave so easily."

Barros, sitting in his wheelchair, laughed.

Fine, solid scales instantly sprouted from his face, and an invisible pressure spread out. "Until I find that thing, I'd better stay on the deck."

"Brush!"

All the Servants acted simultaneously and launched an attack on the Queen.

In the heat of the moment, the Queen had no choice but to accept the challenge!

"Do me a favor."

While dealing with the swarming Servants, she turned to Luther and said, "Stop those who went into the cabin!"

"Good!"

Luther agreed without hesitation.

It wasn't just because he wanted to help the Queen, but also because Luna was still inside the cabin.

"Boom!"

He transformed into a fireball and flew rapidly toward the cabin door. Several Servants tried to stop him, but he easily shook them off.

Barros looked at him, trying to plant an influence on him on a spiritual level, but the illusory sound of the Tide kept echoing in Luther's mind, easily blocking those influences.

"Um?"

The King of the Black Throne showed a slight look of surprise as he watched Luther rush into the cabin.

Luther entered the cabin and flew without stopping. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of the Invisible Servant's tails and discovered that they were sneaking into a lower level of the cabin.

"Ha--"

Suddenly, he heard Luna's breath.
