The Great Dream God

In that narrow alley that was as winding as a snake, as deep as the sea, the atmosphere was extremely depressing, as if the air had turned into substance, and it seemed that endless moisture could be squeezed out with just a slight twist. Lisa stood there quietly, her figure as straight as a pine tree, like an unshakable mountain. Her face showed no fear, and her resolute expression was like a bright star, shining in this dim environment. Her eyes revealed a resolute determination to face death, like a burning flame, hot and firm.

In front of her stood Edward and several demons from the demon territory. Their figures looked particularly eerie and terrifying in the dim and hazy light, like ghosts slowly crawling out of the dark abyss, exuding a creepy aura. Their bodies were shrouded in a strange shadow, making the already gloomy atmosphere even more solemn.

Lisa took a deep breath, and the breath seemed to carry the fear deep in her heart, but she tried to suppress it. Her voice was firm and resolute, like a sharp sword that could easily penetrate the heavy air: "What else is there to say? Since you have discovered me! I have never thought that I could survive today!" Her words echoed in the narrow alley, carrying a tragic atmosphere of heroic death, like an exciting war song, which moved people. The voice seemed to have a magical power, making the air around them tremble.

As soon as the voice fell, Lisa's figure suddenly changed dramatically. Her body seemed to turn into a dark shadow, like a ghost, sneaking into the ground at an extremely fast speed. This sudden change was like a flash of lightning in the night sky, instantly illuminating the astonished faces of the demons. They couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and for a moment they were a little at a loss, with confusion and fear in their eyes.

However, Edward did not hesitate at all. A fierce look flashed in his eyes, and that look was as fierce as a hungry wolf, which made people shudder. His whole body instantly turned into a blood-red light, and rushed to the ground at lightning speed. His fist was clenched tightly, and that fist seemed to contain the power to destroy the world, and it hit the ground mercilessly. At that moment, the ground seemed to tremble slightly, making a dull sound.

Lisa originally thought that she had sneaked into the ground with the powerful power of magic, while Edward used physical force. According to common sense, Edward could not pose any threat to her. So, she said indifferently: "I sneaked into the ground with the power of magic! You used physical force! There is no way... No! What happened? How could this happen!" Her voice was full of shock and fear, and her original confidence collapsed at this moment. The voice was like broken ice, scattered all over the ground, with endless despair.

Edward's fist penetrated the black shadow without any hindrance and went straight into the shadow. His hand grabbed Lisa's neck accurately. This sudden scene made Lisa feel extremely terrified. She showed an unbelievable look on her face, her eyes wide open, full of astonishment and fear. She never thought that Edward could break through her magic defense that she thought was indestructible so easily.

Edward suddenly pulled Lisa out of the black shadow area effortlessly. His movements were neat and tidy, without any drag, as if everything was under his control. While doing these things, he said loudly: "I use the demonic power in my body to wrap my arms tightly. In this way, can't I break through the physical limitations and directly catch you hiding in the shadow?" His voice was full of pride and confidence, and the sound was like a trumpet of victory, echoing in this narrow alley. His eyes flashed with cunning light, as if everything was in his calculations.

Lisa was caught by Edward without any resistance. Her body trembled slightly in Edward's hands, but she still tried to maintain her dignity. She knew clearly that she was in a desperate situation, but there was still no sign of surrender in her eyes. There was an unyielding fire burning in her eyes, as if she was making a final struggle against fate.

Edward looked at Lisa in his hand, and his heart was filled with pride. He knew that he had firmly grasped the initiative, and next, he would use Lisa to realize his ambitious plan. His eyes revealed a greedy desire, as if he saw his grand ambition coming true.

"Lisa, you should know that you have no way out." Edward's voice was icy cold, piercing Lisa's heart like a sharp blade. "As long as you cooperate with me obediently, I can consider sparing your life." His voice echoed in the quiet alley, carrying an irresistible pressure.

Lisa glared at Edward fiercely, her eyes were full of anger and unyielding, and it seemed that her eyes could spit out flames. Her voice was full of determination: "Don't even think about it! I will never help a devil like you!" Her words were like iron, resounding and showed her unyielding will.

Edward sneered, his laughter was full of disdain, as if Lisa's resistance was nothing but a farce in his eyes. "Humph, do you think you still have a choice? If you don't cooperate with me, I will make you live a life worse than death." His voice revealed a cruel threat that made people shudder.

Lisa's heart was filled with despair, but she was still unwilling to give in to Edward. She knew that once she compromised, it would bring even more disastrous consequences. She was struggling painfully in her heart, as if she was looking for a ray of light in the darkness.

At this moment, Edward suddenly increased the strength of his hand, and Lisa suddenly felt a wave of pain like a tide, the pain was like countless ants gnawing at her body, making her unbearable. She couldn't help but let out a painful groan, and the sound echoed in the alley, sounding particularly miserable.

"How about it? Are you willing to consider my suggestion now?" Edward looked at Lisa, with a cruel light in his eyes, as if he was enjoying Lisa's pain. His eyes revealed a morbid satisfaction that made people feel sick.

Lisa gritted her teeth, endured the pain that almost made her faint and said, "What do you want to do?" Her voice was full of pain and anger, but still firm and unyielding.

Edward smiled, but there was endless coldness in that smile, and said, "It's very simple. I want you to help me take over the entire Huaiyang City. As long as you do as I say, I promise not to hurt you." His voice was full of temptation, but Lisa was unmoved.

Lisa was shocked. She never thought that Edward's ambition was so big. Huaiyang City is a vital city. It is like a bright pearl, emitting dazzling light. This city not only has a prosperous economy, but also has a long history and cultural heritage. If it is occupied by Edward, it will bring unimaginable serious consequences, and countless innocent people will fall into dire straits.

"I...I won't help you!" Lisa said firmly, with a stubborn look in her eyes. Although her voice was weak, it was full of strength, a belief from the bottom of her heart.

Edward's face became more gloomy, and his eyes revealed a kind of crazy anger. He increased the strength in his hand again, and Lisa's face became paler and bloodless. Her lips trembled slightly, as if she was in great pain.

"I'll give you one last chance. If you still won't cooperate with me, I'll kill you." Edward's voice was filled with undisguised threats, making people shudder. His voice echoed in the alley, like a death sentence.

Lisa's heart was full of contradictions and struggles. She knew that if she did not agree to Edward's request, she would surely die. However, if she helped Edward occupy Huaiyang City, countless innocent people would suffer. She was in extreme pain, as if struggling in the abyss of darkness.

Just as she was hesitating, a voice quietly sounded in her mind. "Lisa, don't be afraid. You have to believe in your own strength. You will definitely find a way out of this difficult situation." This voice seemed to have a magical power, instantly rekindling the flame of hope in Lisa's heart. The voice was like the sound of nature, echoing deep in her heart, giving her strength and courage.

Lisa took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. She began to concentrate on how to get rid of Edward's control and find a ray of hope. Her eyes flashed with a determined light, which was like the light of dawn, illuminating her way forward.
