Arad's unruly savior

Chapter 275 Dreams of the past, Natalia's despair

"Boss, this is the Dream Eater Tree, isn't it all dead?"

Mo Mei knocked on the withered and yellow trunk with her fist. The bark was cracked and dry, and there was no moisture inside. No matter how you looked at it, it did not conform to the characteristics of a plant to maintain life.

"This is the dream-eating tree. If you look carefully at the top of the branch, there is a layer of very light silver powder, dream powder, a very rare hypnotic material."

Ye Lin climbed up, squeezed a little powder and sniffed it, his head was dizzy, and he immediately used a world instrument to relieve his drowsiness.

It is estimated that no one would have thought that in the dead desert all over the place, any crooked dead tree on the side of the road is the dream-eating tree that is rumored to have a miraculous effect.

"As long as Natalia can fall asleep under the tree, the dream-eating tree will release the sleeping substance and actively absorb spiritual energy to capture the dreams of the dreamer."

After laying a layer of mats on the ground and bringing in a few shades to block the flying yellow sand and scorching sun, he signaled for Natalia to go in.

"I'm a little nervous."

Natalia clenched the corner of her clothes tightly, biting her lower lip, with anxiety written all over her face.

Being devoured by the dream-eating tree means that she will once again recall the days when she was a slave in Delos.

Hunger, pain, blood and killing became the only colors in her eyes.

Even though she joined the Revolutionary Army and organized the Legion of the Holy Order to fight against the empire, and she had a lot of anger, but that bloody nightmare often made her wake up suddenly in the middle of the night, with cold sweat dripping down her back.

"Don't be afraid, after this time, there will be no more pain in the future."

Hiate comforted in a low voice, although she and Natalia also had an unpleasant past, they are not strangers, and they are also sisters now.

"I... I'm still afraid, what if the dream-eating tree doesn't work."

She lowered her head and shook her head vigorously, cold sweat was already breaking out on her forehead, and her cynical red eyes in the past showed panic at the moment, like a kitten that lost its owner.

"Come on, look at me." Yelin said suddenly.

"Ok?"

As soon as Natalia raised her head, Ye Lin covered her palms with her palms. After a few breaths, the poor tomboy fell limp and fell asleep.

"If you do this, will she hate you when she wakes up?" Gu Yu raised her eyebrows. She also often used this method, but it was the sleeping poison given by Paris.

"I don't know, but at least if she doesn't sleep now, the treatment cannot be completed."

He patted the dream powder on his hands, and everyone stayed a little far away, quietly watching Natalia's sleeping face, and put aside the matter of looking for the blood butterfly.

Natalia's breathing became more and more even and steady, her face was peaceful, as if she had slept soundly.

But an hour later, her eyebrows suddenly frowned, panic appeared on her small face, fine cold sweat broke out on her forehead, her hands clenched the corners of her clothes and her knuckles turned white.

On the side looked like a dead dream-eating tree, a nearly transparent flame suddenly lit up on a branch, and after detaching from the branch, it slowly landed on Natalia's forehead.

Everyone held their breath, not daring to breathe out, for fear of accidentally blowing away the hard-won flame.

When the dream-eating tree devours the dream, as long as Natalia doesn't deliberately recall the past, she basically won't have nightmares again.

The flame, which was almost invisible and colorless at first, slowly became dyed with a ray of red over time, and seemed to have a solid appearance.

Natalia's frightened emotions were relaxing, her brows were gradually relaxed, her clenched fists were slowly loosened, but the color of the flames became more and more intense.

The entire devouring process lasted for a full two hours before the bright red flame wobbled back to the tree.

The next moment, the eyes of the drowsy crowd suddenly widened, with an inconceivable look.

The not-so-tall dream-eating tree has flames of various colors on its branches, and there are at least 20 clusters of them.

Each flame is a person's dream, that is to say, this unsurprising dream-eating tree has eaten the dreams of more than 20 people.

"Are you curious, the tomboy's dream, her past, why this guy can sometimes piss me off when he talks, and Hiate and I don't blame her."

The magic power in Yelin's palm surged, and he removed Natalia's flame from the branch of the dream-eating tree.

There is no touch and temperature, but it can move slowly under the nourishment of magic.

"Boss, can you spy on other people's dreams? Is it an invasion of privacy?" Mo Mei asked in a low voice.

"I need some material assistance, because the tomboy's dream is very clear, and he has been in the arena, so I want to see if I can find something that the empire is researching from that nightmare, which is very necessary. After she wakes up I'm going to apologize."

He glanced at Hiate, who shook her head slightly to express that it was okay, she was used to the transfer experiment scene, it didn't matter if she watched it or not.

"Golden crystals, magic essence, powder of dreams, and... death snowflakes that won't melt."

All the materials were crushed into foam and slowly thrown into Natalia's dream flame. The death snowflakes were picked up by him on the way.

In the desert, there are cold things that won't melt, and he discovered the abnormal element.

The recipe for awakening the dream was given by Alice.

The Delos Empire has been conducting various terrifying experiments such as transfer experiments and magic gun experiments, but Natalia once stayed in the underground arena, which is often used by the empire to test various experimental products.

As if the material just put in was gasoline fuel, the flame in Yelin's palm roared to Laogao, extremely vigorous.

Everyone was shocked by this sudden scene, subconsciously looked away.

Then, a thick layer of white mist came quietly from all directions, surrounding everyone in the team, and even made the skin feel slightly chilled.

In the desert, how can there be thick fog suddenly?

"Don't move, this is a reappearance of a tomboy's dream. All of us are from the first-person perspective. No matter what happens next, don't be afraid. The one who endured it is Natalia."

After Yelin whispered his instructions, he slowly closed his eyes, and the dream flames inspired would take him to experience Natalia's lingering nightmare from the first perspective.

In the field of vision is a tall and mottled fence with iron spikes. The yard is full of iron cages, most of which are opened and become very empty, and a few of them still contain a few shivering animals.

There are still some people with disturbed looks around, and some of them are still wearing heavy shackles, so they should be criminals.

Everyone slowly walked towards the small exit in the corner of the courtyard. There was a rusty iron gate. Two imperial soldiers stood beside them with expressionless faces. They looked at them as if they were looking at a piece of rotten potato and rotten meat.

He himself, or Natalia back then, walked slowly towards the door.

There is still a large yard behind the door, surrounded by walls that are too tall for ordinary people to climb, but there are some large glass containers in this place, which contain a disgusting green potion.

The smell should be very pungent, because many people, including myself, covered their noses.

The researcher, who was wearing a white uniform covering her face, handed over a test tube containing a green liquid. Because someone in front of her refused to drink it, she was warned by the imperial soldiers. She could only suppress her nausea and drink it, and then rushed to the third courtyard.

There are many strange devices in the third courtyard, and there is an additional entrance and exit. The number of guards is twice as large as that of the first two courtyards.

Everyone was sitting quietly, frowning, but from time to time, there were extremely shrill wails from other places. There were animals, and it seemed that there were also people, which made people's scalp numb and panicked.

Natalia's palm moved, wondering why there were solidified brown marks on the green grass.

Suddenly, a gorgeously dressed female knight walked in from the third entrance. Judging from the badge on her chest, she should be an apprentice knight and had to pass the final assessment.

Although his appearance was much younger and his little face was full of nervousness, Ye Lin still smiled to himself. If the child guessed correctly, it should be Hiate.

Because nobles seldom come here, Hiat actually came here as a knight to visit, but she never expected to be involved in the transfer experiment.

But because Natalia's gaze was just a glance, and he didn't know Hiate at the time, so he didn't pay attention at all, and his eyes could only stare blankly at the blood stains on the lawn again.

I don't know how long it took, and there was a sudden noise in my ear, mixed with some crying.

His eyes also swept around, and the young trainee knight was arguing with someone, and seemed to want to leave here.

But within two seconds, his gaze turned back again, and he guessed that Natalia's current state should be extremely numb, and even the memory of her dreams was somewhat unclear.

The mysterious potion that he drank earlier may have a little mental anesthesia effect.

boom!
rumbling~
The sudden loud noise made Natalia's numb eyes clearer, but the next moment, her vision was swallowed by endless white light, and the roaring air current even scraped the lawn away. Land.

Chaos, despair, casualties, the only thing that was clear enough was the panicked calls for help.

When her vision returned to normal again, she saw a mysterious semicircular bead on the back of her left hand in a dark and musty room.

Ghost Fuzhu.

The transfer experiment finally ended with a shocking explosion of the transfer device, and the researchers and soldiers were basically killed and injured, while those who survived had an extraordinary force pouring into their arms.

In order to explore the specific information of this power, the empire constantly exerts survival pressure on the people with the magic hand, let them face all kinds of ferocious monsters and other slaves, and suppress the limit of the magic hand by fighting.

And the best place to conduct experiments is naturally the arena where the nobles are extremely fun. Hiate, Feng Ying, and Mei Weiss have all stayed there for a while.

Only Cyrus was an exception. She voluntarily applied to participate in the transfer experiment, and because she grew up with the third princess Isabella, she was quickly picked up after being found to have survived.

Because it is impossible to put all the owners of the magic hand together for experiments in one arena, and it is too dangerous to gather the magic hands, so Natalia was transferred to the worst and bloodiest underground arena in the empire.

What happened next made Ye Lin, who had been telling others not to get excited, almost couldn't hold back his emotional breakdown.

Blood, stumps, cold swords, human-human fighting, human-monster predation, and all kinds of tragedies in the arena turned into carnivals for the nobles, so piercing and painful.

Because the effect of the magic hand must be observed, the empire will not let her die like this easily, but in another way of oppression, she wins and kills the enemy before she can eat.

Her opponents may be other slaves, or monsters. Every time she looks blankly, she desperately uses the sword that will be confiscated after the duel to bathe in the blood of the enemy.

She didn't want to die so simply, she didn't want to starve, that's all.

Her extraordinary perseverance and talent of magic hands attracted the attention of some nobles, who made her learn the taboo swordsmanship that only nobles could practice once.

Of course, this is all for her to bring a better performance!
After a long, long time, Yelin finally saw what he wanted.

A dragon, a dragon-shaped behemoth that is obviously inferior and semi-finished, covered with green poisonous gas, is imprisoned by magic in the center of the arena.

This is Natalia's next opponent, and it is also an attempt by the empire to completely suppress the ability of the devil's hand.

An imitation named Mauretus.

The empire is a low-profile version of the poisonous dragon made by the evil dragon Spitz, with strong vitality and good poisonous ability.

Flapping its wings, it can sway a thick poisonous cloud. If it suddenly descends on the battlefield, it will definitely bring unimaginable disaster to the enemy.

The most frightening thing is that there may not be only one of this kind of low-end and low-quality product!
I don't know if it was due to the negligence of the magician, the seal of Mauletus was opened, the poisonous mist was sprayed wantonly, the whole arena fell into panic, and all the guards were pulled to subdue this inferior product, which also gave Nata Leah's chance to escape.

Barely crushing the door of the cell with magic hands, Natalia ran very quickly, breathing heavily, and looked back from time to time.

Sure enough, as the key object of care, the Arena immediately discovered and dispatched a group of elite soldiers to pursue him.

Natalia scurried left and right like a headless chicken. Fortunately, she got rid of the pursuers, but she stumbled on the path and passed out.

She was really too weak, and the use of the magic hand was a huge drain on her body, but the empire never gave her enough to eat, and all the running around completely exhausted her physical strength.

Because of Natalia's coma, Yelin naturally ended the dream and slowly opened his eyes.

Theoretically, after the escaped Natalia fell into a coma, as long as the imperial army subdued Mauretus and slightly expanded the search range, she could be caught again.

But probably after drinking the bitter potion, a sweet candy finally ushered in, and the passing Captain Root rescued her back.

But just throwing off the pursuers but exhausted his physical strength, and unfortunately fell hard, at that time, it can be said that no matter who it is, it will be full of despair, sorrow and death.

It's no wonder that Natalia was often covered in cold sweat when she woke up, because she didn't know the news of being rescued later, and the end of the dream was a fall of despair.
