Now that he had chosen, the window opened itself and Dorian found a syringe in his hands. Analyzing it, he got the following page:

[Name: Mutation Agent]

[Type: Consumable]

[Rarity: Bronze]

[Effect: Injecting this agent will allow you to mutate that part. Mutation will definitely be beneficial, and the stronger the part about to be mutated, the lesser the effect.]

[Requirement: Place the needle where you want the body to mutate, and inject the agent.]

[Remark: This was produced by an ancient civilization mixing magic, technology and faith to boost the strength of their race's embryos. Strongest effect with organs in the process of forming themselves.]

That looked interesting, Dorian thought he could use this. The Bronze rarity served to prove how great the mutation could be. Of course, a part of Dorian's mind was a little worried, because it would use mutation, but if the system offered this to him then he probably could use it.

Dorian put it in his safe Spatial Ring, the one where he kept the important stuff he wouldn't sell. There were also the 10 000 Dream Coins. When he first arrived into the world of Dark City, he had 500 Dream Coins offered to him, and yet now he earned 20 times more.

That didn't seem like a lot to him, as a grey colored [Steel Sword] had costed him 150 Coins, the most Dorian could buy right now should be a Blue equipment. That should be something incredible for the usual people when they get out of the first world, but for him blue equipments weren't attractive. He would take them, but wouldn't buy most.

As for his Attribute Points, Dorian decided he wouldn't put them in right now. Both his Perception and Intelligence were a mere two points away from the limit of Basic and Adept ranks respectively, so he wanted for them to be upgraded naturally before assigning his points.

As for Strength, Agility and Vitality, they were still further away and already had a big leeway on the two other attributes, especially Perception. His Perception was his only attributes below 30 with the equipments on, and the only below 20 in term of pure attributes.

Then, he didn't go check the system to spend his Dream Coins, but decided to head outside. He went for the door, and it opened to a whole new world.

Dreamland was… strangely colored. It was as if it was only made of white and black. Around him were many houses, tens if not hundreds of them, all forming a circle around what looked like an elevator.

Looking around, Dorian actually wasn't alone. There were people getting out of their houses, others coming back from the elevator, and the rest just hanging out there.

Dorian himself headed for the elevator and got in it. There were already several people in it. He looked at the buttons, and instead of digits he saw names: Market, HUB, Central Plaza.

Although he was curious about the last two, Dorian first decided to head to the Market. He pressed the button and looked at the people around him. They were all humans, and all dressed as weirdly as him.


One wore a mix between a Spartan and an Athenian armor, another seemed to wear an alien armor, another had no pieces of armor of the same set… They all looked very weird.

Dorian didn't even feel the elevator move, and in under ten seconds a voice, which he recognized as the system's said \"Market.\"

The door opened, and indeed, he was in front of the market. It didn't look alien to Dorian, instead it looked very normal. Stalls formed alleys where people could walk and look at the different items on display.

Dorian walked to it, and instead of directly taking a stall, he began walking around. Items of all kinds existed. Their rarity varied too, but the most powerful items were Bronze rarity. Most items were Green, followed by Grey, then Blue and Bronze.

As for their prices, they varied of course, and some items would sometime be more expensive than items of a higher category. One of the less expensive category were the consumables, and armors were more expensive.

That was understandable. A consumable had a limited amount of uses, while an Armor was much more durable, and would do a better job at keeping your life. Well, in most cases.

But within the market, there weren't only people selling their stuff. There was also an Auction House, which Dorian wasn't able to enter because no auction was ongoing right now.

But most importantly, there were other kind of businesses. Smiths, Alchemists, Hotels, Bars and Restaurants… This time, Dorian decided to visit them and get information.

At the corner of the street, there was a bar called 'Joe n Jane'. He decided to enter it at random. After all, was there a better place than a bar to get info?

The bar was filled with people, the tables were filled with people, and even the bar didn't have much place left.

Yet, as soon as he entered, Dorian felt everyone in the room look at him. Some were just below his notice, they were even weaker than him before he entered Dreamland. But there were others, they felt strong. Truly strong. Especially the man and the woman behind the counter, their presence felt the most threatening.

Dorian was able to remain calm though, because he had already been targeted by the pressure of the Cloud Dragon, and they were still way weaker than it.

Dorian could see that different people looked at him differently. Some with greed, others with pity, others with disdain and the rest with alertness.

Dorian was able to hear one of the weaker ones say thanks to his enhanced hearing \"A Newbie, who is going to rob him this time?\"

Dorian frowned, and was about to release his killing intent over the whole room, but decided not to. He would rather not offend everyone here. So he ignored the people, the silence, and looked around.

There was a menu, with different beverages along with their effects and their prices. The cheapest only costed 1 Dream Coin, and was a regular bear.

As for the most expensive drink in the bar, it was written in gold:

[Name: Christ's Blood]

[Type: Consumable]

[Rarity: Bronze]

[Effects: Recover 5000 HP and MP in an instant, heal all injuries.]

[Remark: This magical beverage was created by 'Jane']

[Price: 200 000 Dream Coins]

Dorian smiled, the price was understandable. After all, this could save the life of anyone, and put them back in their peak fighting state. This could even regrow limbs. It also showed that this Jane must be a powerful person to craft such things. He wondered though, was it her behind the bar, or was she employing people?

Next to the menu, there was a list of rules, only three of them: No killing, No smoking, All damage must be repaid.

As he looked at the rules, a group of five people got up from their table. They were all dressed the same, into beasts' hides. They all looked like barbarians.

They walked toward Dorian and blocked his path. A tall blond guy, who looked like their leader, said \"Transfer all your Coins to us, and give us your equipment. You have ten seconds before we start thrashing you.\"

Dorian didn't say anything and instead released his killing aura. He focused it on them, and made it infiltrate each of their minds with his Mind Magic.

Their defenses broke instantly, because they were simply too weak. The strongest among them was weaker than Marcus.

In a split second, Dorian transformed his killing intent into five giant tides of bloods in their minds, and crushed their mind. He didn't kill them or leave them brain dead though, as he left a sliver of their minds behind.

This all happened in a split second, and half a second after he released his killing intent, Dorian had made a step forward, and the five were on their knees, unable to move.
