Ultraman in the world of grams

The little man on the black and white picture struggled to explain in sign language, and from time to time he pulled the black lines around him to form words.

Only then did William barely know what happened.

He thought thoughtfully: "So this weird place is called Dreamland? Everything here is made up of imagination and subconsciousness, and is affected by people's dreams?"

At first glance, this place really feels like a fairy tale, like Alice in Wonderland. Dreams come true. This is the wonderland that many people dream of.

But don't forget that people's dreams are not just good dreams, nightmares can come true.

William turned his head and looked out the porthole with a solemn expression. Those weird and abnormal dolphins were still following around the submarine, lingering.Was the dolphin they saw their fantasy, or the nightmare of the submarine sailors five years ago?

William tried to imagine that there were no dolphins in the outside world, but just the most ordinary sea area, without those weird phosphorescence, nor those weird dolphins. As usual, they were traveling in the dark and deep sea.

But no matter how hard he tries to give himself hints, it has no effect. This is probably like the psychological experiment of not thinking about the white elephant. As long as a person hints that he should not think about the white elephant, the white elephant will become The more it will appear in my mind.

There were countless dolphins outside, swimming in the water, they didn't look ethereal at all, and they were right in front of William's eyes.

No matter how hard William tried, the dolphins were still around the submarine, no more and no less.

This may be because the dolphin itself already exists and cannot change its nature, or perhaps because William's thoughts alone are too small. Even in the submarine, there are still interferences from other people.

The black and white villain on the screen cannot turn his head, cannot see the specific situation in the submarine, and cannot even speak. He can only rely on sign language and lines to communicate with William in the dreamland.

【Where are you now? 】

"I don't know, but we seem to have encountered the same thing as what was recorded in the drifting bottle." William calmly communicated the situation at the scene with the villain. At this critical moment, you must not be impatient, " Both the captain and Ms. Ellis are now in a state of confusion, and I only woke up with the power of the monster."

As he spoke, he looked up at Professor Howard with a slightly apologetic tone. "Professor Howard is with me now... I'm sorry that we had a scuffle due to some misunderstanding before..."

[How is Professor Howard's mental state now? ] The villain anxiously drew out some words.

He didn't care much about his human body being beaten. He believed that William would not brutally beat the unlucky Professor Howard until his nose was bruised and swollen, but he still wasn't worried about the other person's mental state. He was already mentally ill. If more After a few stimulations, it will be troublesome if it cannot be cured completely.

"There's nothing wrong with the mental state..." It's just that there are some riddlers who speak inexplicably.

William looked at Professor Howard who was in a daze again and hesitated to speak.

【That's good】……

Nanke took the black and white painting given to him by Pickman, closed his eyes and used his mind to communicate with William in the dreamland. After confirming that they were relatively safe at the moment, they were just trapped in a strange place with the drift bottle. After the similar scene described in the book, he was slightly relieved.

Fortunately, they did not fall into some kind of trap, and their status was roughly determined.

He felt a little emotional, thanks to the painter Pickman he met before, who introduced him to ghouls and dreamland, and gave him this painting, otherwise he would really be helpless.

At the beginning, he brought this painting simply because it was the wish of his painter friend, but he did not expect that it would play an unexpected role here.

However, he still didn't quite understand why the story recorded in the drifting bottle caused the expedition team to encounter such a situation. The most important thing was why he was fine, but it was his human body Howard who was attacked. ?

I have to say that everything I encountered along the way was too coincidental and strange.

The bottle had obviously been floating on the sea for five years, but why did it happen to be picked up by Ellis?
The same was true for the Jinaijindaru people before. Why did they hold the ceremony when they arrived in that village?
It was obvious that the guy behind the scenes who played with monster cards and manipulated people's hearts had been eliminated by Captain Lyndon. Even if it was just an insignificant clone, why did they still encounter coincidences one after another along the way?

He had some doubts that it was his own problem. Was it because he, as a light, was like a shining light bulb in this world, and all kinds of accidents would rush to his side?
But this is very strange in itself. He believes that there may be monsters or other things actively looking for him because of his light, but this should not be a coincidence.

Could it be that the person behind the scenes is still doing something?

But this doesn't make sense. The one before deliberately targeted the ordinary people around him and wanted to make others his tools for fun. Whether it was a seaside town or the Hydra, he had a painful experience.

But the coincidences encountered when sailing again were different. Although they also encountered abnormal encounters with monsters, and seemingly the expedition team was in crisis, in the end it seemed that they were all within the scope of his abilities, or appeared by chance. Various things happened, but in essence, the people around him and the expedition team just encountered an exciting adventure.

This is quite different from the style of the man behind the scenes before, so Nanke is not sure whether it is just a coincidence of being attracted to him, or some other reason...

Just when Nanke was thinking about this, suddenly, he vaguely heard some kind of surprised shout from the black and white painting, and he quickly continued to sink his consciousness into it.

……

William looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief. The magnificent traces of civilization seemed to have witnessed thousands of years of glorious history, and he had seen the rise and fall of the world. The shocking scene that was beyond words and unimaginable was just on his retina. The image hit the depths of his mind.

He couldn't help shouting in astonishment, until the villain on the painting asked, he murmured back:
"We... arrived at the temple." (End of Chapter)
