Chapter 20

The horn created a bridge between the two worlds of dreams and reality, which could never meet.

Therefore, the Red String Worm determined that this was not an obstacle and did not allow the Dream Qilin to evolve a healing ability.

This is the rule of the Red String Worm.

Although the herd of Tremor Beasts outside currently does not have the ability to enter dreams,

it’s possible that one day, those Tremor Beasts will also evolve the ability to enter dreams.

Then, they would be able to find this Dream Qilin.

At that time, the worms and Tremor Beasts that have completed their mission would perish, and naturally, there would be no more Tremor Beast disturbances.

Is this the only way?

After going around in circles, it returned to the original “let it rot” approach.

Logan Clark thought for a moment and still felt that the horn that entered reality was the key.

But first, it was necessary to be one hundred percent sure that the black horn was related to the Dream Qilin in front of them.

Logan Clark picked up the electronic screen and asked Ryan Clark, “Do you have a weapon?”

Ryan Clark was stunned for a moment, but quickly took out a handle.

With a twist of both hands, a razor-sharp spike extended from the handle, and she handed it directly to Logan Clark, showing great trust in him.

Under Ryan Clark’s shocked gaze, Logan Clark raised the spike and stabbed it into the Dream Qilin.

Rainbow-colored blood spurted from the wound on the Dream Qilin.

The blood, like paint, splattered onto the ground and gradually lost its color, turning pure black.

It was exactly the same color as the black horn in reality.

Once it turned pure black, it quickly disappeared into the air.

The change in the blood made Logan Clark even more convinced of his hypothesis.

After being attacked, the Dream Qilin rampaged around the cage, but could not escape at all.

Logan Clark continued the attack, poking many holes in the Dream Qilin’s body.

The Red String Worm quickly played its role.

The wounds on the Dream Qilin’s body kept healing.

Logan Clark’s attack directly caused the Dream Qilin to evolve a healing ability.

Whew—

After finishing all this, Logan Clark let out a sigh of relief.

This was a very risky move, because he didn’t know what other tricks the Dream Qilin might have.

After all, there was very little research on this kind of creature.

Once the Dream Qilin evolved a healing ability, a short horn suddenly sprouted from its head and then kept growing longer.

With the effect of healing, its previously broken horn quickly grew back.

It worked!

Logan Clark looked at Ryan Clark again and returned the spike to her.

“Switch to a knife, the sharpest one you have.”

Upon hearing this, Ryan Clark found one for Logan Clark.

Taking the knife, Logan Clark chopped off the Dream Qilin’s horn in one stroke.

The Dream Qilin fell to the ground in pain, struggling nonstop, making even Logan Clark feel a pang of sympathy.

Picking up the horn from the ground, Logan Clark watched as it kept turning black, eventually becoming exactly the same as the black horn in reality.

Then the black horn vanished into thin air.

Seeing Ryan Clark’s puzzled expression, Logan Clark explained on the electronic screen: “Body parts separated from the Dream Qilin will go to the real world.”

This was originally just Logan Clark’s guess; he simply found the explanation that best fit reality.

But the previous experiment confirmed this.

“If we can’t send the Tremor Beasts into the dream, then we’ll send the Dream Qilin into reality.”

Logan Clark had already thought of the next step.

“What we need to do now is to separate all of the Dream Qilin’s body parts from it.”

That is, to instantly kill every part of the Dream Qilin’s body!

Logan Clark told Ryan Clark his plan.

Ryan Clark was first surprised, then fell into deep thought.

After thinking for a moment, she asked, “Do you need a nuclear bomb?”

Logan Clark was startled and quickly waved his hands—he had already thought of a way.

Telling the girl to wait a moment, Logan Clark went to the balcony, found a small bug in a flowerpot, and activated teleportation.

He then entered the space filled with kimchi and found the bug that had already died on the ground.

This was the method Logan Clark thought of to instantly kill the Dream Qilin.

He planned to teleport the Dream Qilin directly into the kimchi space and kill it instantly.

Previously, Logan Clark didn’t know the principle behind why teleportation would cause a creature to perish.

The first possibility was that any creature entering the block would perish, so the Dream Qilin entering the kimchi space would still be alive.

If this was the case, Logan Clark had planned to teleport the Dream Qilin out and throw it into various extreme environments.

But this also carried the risk of the Dream Qilin continuously evolving.

But for now, it seemed that wasn’t necessary.

The second possibility was that any creature that had been teleported by him would perish instantly.

Chapter 16: The Cycle of Tremors

===========================

Chapter 16: The Cycle of Tremors

After explaining his actions to the girl again, Logan Clark came to the cage.

He didn’t know if his method would succeed, but he had to try.

Selecting the cage as well, Logan Clark activated teleportation, and the Dream Qilin instantly disappeared before his eyes.

Logan Clark hurried to the kimchi space.

At this moment, the Dream Qilin was already motionless.

All its colors had faded, the light on its body had vanished, and it was losing color from the outside in.

That dazzling skin slowly faded to black, the speed of fading extremely fast.

The Dream Qilin grew darker and darker, until it finally became absolutely black, just like the black horn.

In the blink of an eye, the cage was already empty.

He quickly returned outside and told Ryan Clark what had happened.

“We can wake up now.”

Ryan Clark nodded.
