Waking from a dream in the early morning.
Luo Di had a completely different beautiful dream last night.
In the dream, he lost all his mories and took on a dream identity to travel to a remote small island country, where he t a girl nad Hua Yuan.
Of course, this wasn't one of those typical cliché love stories.
Luo Di couldn't suppress the urge to slaughter the girl, but no matter what, he couldn't kill her. Even if there was only a trace of her body left, she would regrow like a flower.
Ultimately, he could only use an extre thod, a thod related to Hunter, to deal with her completely.
Waking up from the dream,
Luo Di involuntarily burped, and there seed to be the taste of atballs lingering in his mouth.
"Hua…"
As he tried to call out the na, a voice from the pituitary space echoed through his consciousness:
"Don't worry, it's just a dream! It's very normal, as the Shop Owner has sewed us together, this deep fusion will rge our consciousness, resulting in so strange, elusive brain wave activity.
How was it, your first experience, right? Surely you haven't eaten Wu Wen, have you?"
"Alright, get up! Today, we should be leaving, heading back to the school with Lebeite to report."
"I don't need to move, just let you do it~ Rest a bit in your kingdom, that dream last night exhausted a bit... I'll be staying in your pituitary space for now.
I'll probably only appear if there's real danger, like encountering the green light. Of course, I might sneak out ahead of ti."
"Deal."
Ending his consciousness communication with Hua Yuan, Luo Di slowly propped himself up.
Oddly enough, there was no sign of the Shop Owner inside the counter... there were no traces of the Shop Owner in the entire comic bookshop, only Lebeite had just been spat out by a comic book.
"Lebeite, did you read through the whole night?"
"Yes, are we leaving now?"
"Let's get ready to head back to school, by the way, where's the Shop Owner?"
"He left two hours ago and hasn't returned yet. Judging by his expression when he left, it seed like there was sothing urgent."
"Sothing urgent?"
If regular monsters have urgent matters then that's one thing, but for sothing to be considered urgent by the Shop Owner, it's either the green light he's chasing or sothing concerning the world above.
"Let's first check Vortex Town, we are likely heading to the dungeon today… Lebeite, do you need to rest for a bit?"
"I took breaks intermittently to sleep while browsing the comics; I'm in pretty good condition.
The comics on the shelves are complete, but not deep. So truly interesting and dangerous comics must be hidden deep within the shop, let's co again later."
The alley outside the comic shop leads directly to Vortex Town,
As soon as their footsteps set into Vortex Town, they imdiately sensed a change, and the ranking of the plants among the community mbers in the town had also changed.
"Dormo, are you awake!?"
When they arrived at the teacher's office, they found the Shop Owner who had left early, Dormo who had just woken up, and Teacher Guo were all gathered here, seriously discussing an issue.
When he saw the two young n with different hair colors, one gray and one golden, arriving, Teacher Guo waved them over and briefly explained the incident that happened during Dormo's ascension.
Luo Di was greatly shocked upon hearing, "Did a certain mad god from the Central Prison, related to dreams, use Dormo's dream to peek into this world? Was it exposed?!"
The pseudo-god hidden in the right eye also seed to rember sothing and shivered inside.
The Shop Owner simply explained, "It's not so easily exposed, after all, I promised you all that I would ensure the coordinates of this world completely disappear, even if an Outer God passes by this area, they won't notice.
The other party only discovered the 'newbie' Dormo in the deep dream, and I tily intercepted it; the other party still doesn't know what kind of world Dormo is from.
I have currently sealed Dormo's thoughts using the comic 'Long Dream', especially in his Dream Core area, making it extrely difficult for the opponent to penetrate."
"Shop Owner… you an to say you have already indicated to the opponent that Dormo is your disciple?"
"Yes."
At this point, Luo Di also let out a deep sigh of relief.
It has to be said, this mysterious Shop Owner from the Central Prison is genuinely offering help, at least in this matter he's no longer neutral, but leaning towards Corner Depths.
It is currently a crucial period for Corner Depths, a ti for everyone to gain Divine Status and reach the Corner Depths, if the Mad God were to co knocking at this mont, it would indeed be a huge trouble.
However, the expression on the Shop Owner's face was not good as he further added:
"Of course, it is not absolutely safe either.
The guy who enjoys dreaming in the prison has a rather lively and active thinking mind, as well as being quite crazy.
The contact last night, although it was only a few seconds, I also quickly expressed my identity and attitude.
But that guy might have already figured sothing out, and he might also develop a strong interest in Dormo's dream. There's a low chance he will continue to ignore my existence and keep investigating to the end.
If he really cos looking, I will still honor the agreent, excuse you all, and keep this world as hidden as possible.
But if it really can't be concealed, then there's nothing more I can do.
So you all better hurry, even if there's only a one in ten thousand chance, you must prepare for the worst case... The sa goes for Dormo. Even though I've helped to reinforce the Dream Core space, you still need to be careful.
That guy is really troubleso~ I rarely use this word to describe a person.
Luo Di also beca increasingly curious. It was the first ti he saw the Shop Owner being so cautious, "Who exactly is that death row inmate who likes to dream?"
Faced with the question,
the Shop Owner put his index finger in front of his lips, "Just ntioning anything related to his na increases the risk of exposure... I told you his mind is extrely active."
"Got it! Shall we set off today? Lebeite and I are basically ready, will Dormo join us?"
It was apparent that Dormo had not yet recovered from the encounter in the dream, and he was montarily stunned, "Huh? Heading to the Dungeon now, I just... Wait, Luo Di, you and Lebeite shouldn't have broken through long ago, right?"
Luo Di responded, "Yes, I've already spent a month in this world, and Lebeite broke through just yesterday."
"Yesterday? It feels like Lebeite's state has completely stabilized, like he broke through a long ti ago, even longer than you, Luo Di."
While the three young ones were discussing the plan to head to the Dungeon, Teacher Guo interrupted the topic, "Dormo needs to stay at school for a while, at least a month... To make sure he is not under any outside influence from the dream realm.
If that influence is brought into the Dungeon, it would be certain death.
If you two are ready, go ahead."
"Okay."
...
Ruined mansion, beneath the entrance.
The relentless rain was pounding against the exterior of the movie shop; the external environnt here was still the sa, dark and damp.
But inside the shop, there had been a noticeable change.
The movie shop, which once couldn't even bear to light a single candle, now actually had lights on. The incandescent light pierced through the darkness, falling just one ter in front of the door, dyeing the "Welco" mat with hues.
Pushing the door open and entering.
The interior of the shop seed to have gained a bit more life, no longer as cold as in the past.
When taking the elevator to the first floor, one could see the shop assistant who used to huddle at the counter smoking, now surprisingly refurbishing the shelves.
His once thin face seed to have gained so flesh, and his complexion improved significantly, no longer resembling a zombie.
"Back so soon, Luo Di? And you brought along an interesting companion... no, it's actually two."
The Shop Owner still had a cigarette holder in his mouth, but his voice had brightened considerably.
"Yes, we plan to officially explore the Original Dungeon today... Shop Owner, you seem sowhat different."
"I am one with the Dungeon. Jiang Mansion used to manage the entrance here, basically, no one ca down, leaving lacking any nutritional supply.
Now, with your frequent visits, I too am gradually recovering.
Wait a bit, I'll be ready soon."
After the shop assistant wrapped up his work, he went to the counter and took out three elevator keys.
"If you're ready, then head off."
"Well~ we only need two keys."
The shop assistant imdiately noticed Luo Di's intent, stood up to take a closer look, "Hmm, a highly sophisticated sew-up, is it the handiwork of that death row inmate? It might indeed fool the Dungeon, after all, the Prison Director is dead, and rules are rigid.
However, I must warn you, if you're caught cheating, it may trigger dangers beyond even my estimation.
It's best to keep the thing inside you hidden, avoid appearing unless necessary, and choose places hard to detect when you do show."
"Understood."
The shop assistant tacitly approved of this cheating behavior, retrieved a key, and signaled them to proceed quickly.
But Luo Di had another question, "Um... I want to ask, will Lebeite and I be going down together? There's only one Original Dungeon, do we not need to separate? For instance, I could wait up top for a while."
"Going together is fine! As long as you ensure you proceed one after the other, you will naturally end up entirely separated.
The ti scale in the Original Dungeon is variable... That perceived second difference ans the person ahead has already either passed through the Dungeon or perished within it.
You should know better,
the Dungeon is alive, it will properly adjust your sequence, so you only need to focus on yourself, make sure your cheating goes unnoticed."
"Thank you."
