Chapter 201 Demons, extraordinary power
In the dark night, a shadow moved silently. At the same time, in many areas where the shadow passed, the bodies of some small flying insects stiffened slightly at first, and then continued to maintain their original flight trajectory.
[Shadow Stealth·Change]!
【Repelling insect larvae·Change】!
Although this is only the zero-level witchcraft at the level of two wizard apprentices, it is better than concealment and silence. Even if someone notices abnormal fluctuations, it will not attract too much attention from other "players". In this chaotic situation, it seems most appropriate.
"Among the seven auras near the family castle, the one closest to me is the 'maid' I marked. As for the other auras, one comes from the north, where the Knights are stationed, and the other two are in the south... "Lucian quietly speculated on the possible identities of these players, and also thought about whether there was some "commonality" in the roles they played.
"Huh?" Lucian's footsteps soon paused slightly. Because through the perspective of those flying insects, Lucian had already discovered the "player's true identity" of the maid.
This is a humanoid creature that looks a bit strange. She has a body similar to that of a double-ten woman, but there is no hair on the top of her head. Instead, she has two pairs of soft tentacles similar to those of a snail.
On her neck, there are two rows of special "cracks", which look somewhat similar to the gill clefts of a shark. However, according to Lucian's speculation, the function of these two rows of "cracks" should not be breathing, but "filtering". "Discrete magic elements in the air.
"A brand new creature from another world..." Lucian's eyes were filled with heat. After all, for wizards, brand-new biological specimens are definitely one of the most precious treasures. Using their bodies for dissection or research can increase their knowledge, and at the same time, they can also harvest some precious and rare natural rune model structures.
Lucian had no sympathy for these alien races, so he would not feel too guilty when dissecting their bodies.
But Lucian soon suppressed his desire to collect new specimens.
He quietly followed the alien from a distance, and at the same time quietly ordered the flying insects controlled by him to move loosely towards the opponent's area under normal movement trajectories, so that he could pass through a certain flying insect at any time. The alien's actions were monitored from the perspective.
"What is she... looking for?" Lucian quietly observed the movements of this alien, only to find that the other party seemed to be exploring aimlessly, and his movements also appeared to be extremely careful, and he showed a strong expression towards some empty rooms. interest, and don't miss any corner of the empty room.
This look is more like... scanning a picture.
Lucian slowly clenched his right hand into a fist, feeling a little disappointed.
"I thought I could get more information from this guy, but now it seems that I took it for granted." Lu Xian felt helpless.
Looking at the alien's movements, he could slightly guess what this alien would encounter in the dream world.
She probably accidentally found a few drops of ink during this "scanning" process. After learning about the benefits of ink or the preciousness of this kind of thing, she began to take risks to explore on a larger scale, and I hope to find more ink or other precious resources.
If I follow and observe such a lucky "novice", I may be able to rub her luck, but the greater possibility is that I will get nothing, or even be led into a trap by the other party.
"Observe it for two or three days first. Don't eat the 'bait' thrown by other players and become a big fish caught by others." After a night of observation, Lucian finally did not take action and watched this man silently. The alien players returned safely.
After all, this is not a game. There is no option to load files or resurrect. If you make the wrong choice, death may be waiting for you.
"It's almost dawn, and I don't know what special changes will happen when I return to my identity..." Lucian looked up at the ray of morning light in the east and walked quickly towards the bedroom.
But before he reached the bedroom, he felt an invisible force restraining his body, and the next moment, the world was spinning.
Lucian felt as if he had been directly involved in a whirlpool that he could not resist. When he could regain control of his body, he found that he had merged with [Lula] again and returned to the bedroom of this identity.
However, Lucian felt that his condition was extremely bad at this time. Under the somewhat rough transmission just now, his body was invaded by the strong power of dreams, and there were many more colorful spots on his real body that contained the power of dreams. piece.
"It seems that returning to the body late also requires paying a certain price. If you are completely converted into a dream creature in the real place, I am afraid that like Wizard Helen, you will be completely suppressed by the rules here and become a living dead thing. …”
Lucian silently remembered this lesson, but now he needs to take advantage of Count Thanasis's consciousness to ask for some details about the "Real Land", otherwise he feels that the goals of his actions within the Real Land are a bit vague. .
It’s impossible to aim to find out all other “players” and eliminate them, right?
Lucian muttered to himself, and at the same time told Count Thanasis about his confusion, hoping to get some useful information from this dream sandwich veteran.
"Hairy two-legged monster, if I knew these details, there would be no need for you to come over." There was a hint of helplessness in Count Thanasis' voice. "Dreams are not so easy to explain clearly. But don't you know the information about the dream owner from the rules? The formation of the dream comes from a certain obsession of the dream owner. This should be the core thing..."
Count Thanasis's voice became smaller and smaller, and he soon fell into a deep sleep again under the suppression of the rules of this "real place".
"Dream Master...Obsession...Core..." Lu Xian chewed on these key words over and over in his mind, and a lot of thoughts came to his mind.
"It seems that this afternoon's visit is very crucial. I need to use this visit to contact the dream owner [Rafal] and understand the main thread of this dream. By the way, I also need to know more about this dream world. Understand, maybe you can guess some of the main plot information through some contents of the worldview..."
Lucian quickly planned today's goals, and at the same time he started today's "acting" familiarly.
…
"Have you heard? Another C-class demon lair was discovered in the west of the kingdom..."
"Frank, congratulations. With your current strength, I'm afraid you can pass the 'Level 1 Warrior Assessment' of the Awakening Temple, right? With your current strength, I'm afraid you can be easily promoted to squad leader..."
"Last night, Master Carroll wet the bed again. He didn't go to bed until late at night. I really envy you for taking care of Miss Lula..."
"Young Master, extraordinary power is not so easy to control. Although you have awakened the power of 'fire' through the Awakening Stone, you still need to learn to control this power and need long-term study and practice to consolidate it. Awakening is just about mastering the extraordinary power. The beginning of the power..."
…
With the help of "face brushing", Lucian "inadvertently" walked through many places within the family in the morning. Although the stay was not long, he also got a lot of useful information.
Among them, there are some descriptions of the basic information about the world, allowing Lucian to roughly piece together a basic situation of the world.
Within this world, there are extraordinary beings and extraordinary professions, and these extraordinary beings will join forces to fight against the common enemy of mankind - the "demon clan".
Lairs that produce demons will continue to be generated in every corner of the world, and many types of demons or monsters driven by them as minions will be derived. At the same time, some precious resources will also be produced inside the demon lair, such as... awakening stones.
Through the Awakening Stone, humans can awaken some special and powerful "talents" or abilities, allowing ordinary humans to possess some special talents, such as physical strength comparable to or even surpassing demons, and the ability to control fire. , thunder and lightning or ice and other natural forces.
While humans are resisting the demons, they are also growing their own strength from the defeated demons.
To put it simply, this is a world invaded by demons. If you want to make an analogy, it is somewhat similar to the setting of Sword & Sorcery and Dungeons.
However, the information Lucian obtained was all pieced together from the fragmentary information he learned from the chat conversations he overheard. The details are definitely still vague, and there may even be some errors and omissions.
However, judging from the current information, perhaps the core target is related to the demon clan.
Could it be that the dream master's goal is to defeat the demons? Or is it to defeat a powerful being within the demon clan?
Lu Xian was guessing, but for some reason, he always felt that the core goal of this dream would not be that simple.
"Unfortunately, the information I currently know is too little. After all, no one would be stupid enough to say something very formal to a five-year-old child. Sometimes they would even subconsciously stop the conversation when they find out that I am present. , or change the topic, for fear of hurting my 'immature heart'..."
Lu Xian felt helpless. When he was inquiring about the news, he also discovered another major flaw in his identity, that is, he was warned of being "not suitable for children"!
"It can be said that there are advantages and disadvantages. After all, if I were older, I'm afraid it would be a little difficult to enter and exit other people's rooms so unscrupulously." Lucian could only comfort himself in the end, But he quickly thought of the second key point he discovered this morning.
That is about the extraordinary power within this dream world.
The second chapter is a little later and is being revised. Originally, I planned to simply set the extraordinary system of the dream world to knights, wizards, and dungeons. However, I felt that this was somewhat similar to the wizard world and there was not much novelty, so I made a temporary adjustment. , the next chapter needs an overhaul
