Infinite Disasters: I Hoarded My Way to Godhood novel Chapter 406

Chapter 406: Chapter 406: Nightmare Summoning, Father Douglas Sullivan

The black-haired Eureka’s eyes held undisguised malice.

A teasing cruelty and a lofty indifference.

The corners of his mouth curled into a cruel arc.

"Geh heh heh... The Peach Kingdom?"

The black-haired "Eureka" let out a harsh, grating laugh.

His voice echoed through the hall, which had just begun to quiet down.

Carrying with it a power that corroded the heart.

"Then become the 1,223rd boring dream I have destroyed within the Divine Kingdom of Sweet Dreams!"

His words were a direct declaration of his identity and purpose.

This was no ally, but an existence that opposed the God of Sweet Dreams, one who commanded nightmares and craved destruction and ruin!

Seraphina Sullivan understood instantly.

The blond Eureka represented the side of the God of Sweet Dreams.

And this black-haired Eureka before her was undoubtedly on the side of the Nightmare God.

They were enemies.

The Player, Dex, was a Nightmare God’s Favored.

This "Protect the Banquet" quest was never about fighting off sporadically spawning monsters, but a prelude to a faction-versus-faction conflict!

A contest between Players from the Nightmare God’s faction and Players from the God of Sweet Dreams’ faction.

Watching the sudden turn of events, they realized the quest they thought would end after dealing with those Nightmare Minions had now escalated in difficulty.

"What... what the hell is going on?!"

Ironhide stared at the five people on the other side, who were clearly Players.

And at the black-haired man who stood as a mirror image opposite Eureka.

His simple, honest face was a mask of confusion and disbelief.

The way this instance was unfolding had completely exceeded his comprehension.

Clayton Quinn was calmer by comparison, his brow tightly furrowed.

His gaze swept over the enemy Players and his own side.

He analyzed in a low voice, "I’m not sure of the exact reason.

But it seems this instance split us entrants into two factions from the very beginning.

The Dream Faction and the Nightmare Faction.

We were probably assigned to the Dream side because of the [Beautiful Dream Stamp].

And them... they might have used something like a [Nightmare Stamp] or some other method to become helpers for the Nightmare faction."

Clayton Quinn paused, his tone growing heavier.

"So, the quest requires us to protect the banquet from being destroyed and to knock back the nightmare forces.

In that case, killing these Players who belong to the Nightmare faction is very likely... also a way to complete the quest and earn enough contribution points. It might even be a necessary condition."

"So we have to take them out to finish the quest, is that what you’re saying?"

Lamb shook the horns on his head and chimed in with an "Oh, I get it now" tone.

It was as if the Low Rank minions from before were just appetizers, and the main course was only now being served.

Seraphina Sullivan’s gaze, however, was fixed more on the two figures at the edge of the battlefield, facing each other from afar like opposite poles of light and darkness.

The blond Eureka and the black-haired "Eureka."

Neither of them had directly joined the battle since appearing.

They just stood there silently, looking at each other, both wearing inscrutable smiles.

But the air between them was faintly distorting and vibrating, as if two invisible, immense wills were fiercely clashing and probing, engaging in a silent, higher-level contest.

Clearly, these two "big shots" wouldn’t be personally entering the fray for now.

Or perhaps, the way they competed was far beyond the comprehension of ordinary Players.

The battle below was more of a game between the Favored and "Chess Pieces" of both sides. 𝘧𝗿𝖊𝖾𝑤𝓮𝑏𝓷𝚘𝚟𝗲𝒍.𝖼𝒐𝖒

Hearing Lamb’s "naive" comment, Dex, the leader of the Nightmare God’s Favored, let out a disdainful sneer.
