Chapter 879 The Transitivity of Dreams

After listening to the examples given by the team leader, Hu Le immediately understood what the transmissibility of dreams is.

Each layer of dreams is consistent, and the so-called "variables" will only be passed down layer by layer and become part of history.

Therefore, the previous few dreams should not change history.

"Twenty-two people are missing. There must be twenty-two people missing, unless..."

The team leader changed the subject and looked at Hu Le.

“There’s something unique that becomes a variable.”

He looked straight at Hu Le, his eyes moving constantly over Hu Le's body.

Hu Le immediately understood what the team leader meant. He pointed at himself and asked uncertainly, "Me?"

……

In the cube, Mo Ling was still feeling the strange experience of "one person playing two roles" when he heard the team leader say "uniqueness".

He suddenly remembered that when he was in the Black Tower, Martin had told him that he was special. No matter how many layers of dreams there were, there was only one him.

“Is this the uniqueness?”

Before, he did help Martin and interfere with his dreams.

Because of his uniqueness, his several dreams changed history.

Thinking of this, Mo Ling connected everything together.

At the same time, he was also very curious about how many levels of dreams Mengdu was in? After entering dreams several times to change history, how many levels did he reach?
So, he threw this question to the team leader...

"What floor was Mengdu originally on?"

When the team leader heard Hu Le's question, he was stunned at first, then he lowered his head and began to think.

But after thinking for a moment, the team leader shook his head.

"According to records, the level of 'reality' I'm on should be 426, but I'm the person in your dream. You know my level doesn't make any sense. Also, there's a very serious problem..."

"Below the Abyss Hole, due to the existence of the Abyss Hole screening mechanism, some dream layers will be directly eliminated, resulting in dream faults. If there is a 426th layer between the original 428th and 427th layers, but it is screened out, then the 428th layer will become the new 427th layer."

"Because of this, you can't just use a number to define the level of the dream, and knowing which level you are on is meaningless."

After hearing the team leader's careful answer, Hu Le suddenly felt a little terrified.

"So, now everything is messed up?"

After changing history, the number of layers is no longer the original number of layers.

It turned out that Li Luo on the previous level might have met with an accident.

The missing security guard on a certain floor changed from Aqing to Lao Ping.

On another floor, both of them were missing...

His entry into the dream did not actually change history. He just came to other levels and saw the history that had already happened on this level. What was supposed to happen still happened, and it did not change anything?

The so-called "uniqueness" only stirred up some waves in the layers of dream cake, but did not really "save" anyone?

Thinking of this, Mo Ling in the cube took a breath of cold air.

He thought he was trying to change the past, but in fact, he was just lost in a dream...

An indescribable despair suddenly surged into my heart.

Unconsciously, he had become a lonely soul wandering in dreams, not even knowing where he came from.

"500th floor. I want to go back to the 500th floor. That's reality."

Maybe those robots didn't do anything to Li Luo, and there's still a chance to save him...

Thinking of this, Hu Le suddenly grabbed the team leader's hand. "How can I wake up? If I keep waking up, can I return to the original level?"

Seeing Hu Le suddenly become so excited, the team leader patted his hand gently and comforted him:
"Hu Le, calm down. If you cling to reality, you will only get lost deeper and deeper in the dream..."

"Think about it, where is the 'reality'?"

"For people on the 426th floor, the 426th floor is reality. For people on the 428th floor, the 428th floor is reality. Reality and dreams are relative."

"Have you ever thought about this? Hu Le... Why does something like dream energy, which shouldn't exist in reality, appear in reality?"

"Because, the 'reality' we are familiar with is nothing more than a dream at a higher level. We are nested in a huge 'dream onion'. The layers of dreams are like layers of onion slices, and the dream energy fills the onion slices. If we must say what reality is, then the entire onion is reality."

……

"But I still want to go back." Hu Le looked at the team leader in front of him who was trying to persuade him earnestly and said seriously.

Seeing Hu Le being so persistent, the team leader sighed helplessly.

"Have you thought it through? Going back to the original level is much more difficult than changing history... Moreover, you have uniqueness, so you could have kept on 'correcting' until you found a comfortable dream. If you insist on going back, you might be faced with a 'reality' that is on the verge of breaking."

Should I choose to continue sleeping, or wake up and return to the reality where I don’t know where it will lead?
Hu Le, or Mo Ling, had already made his choice when he realized that this was a dream.

"I want to wake up."

He said firmly to the team leader.

The team leader looked at his unquestionable eyes, and the helplessness on his face finally turned into a smile.

"it is good."

……

"Take this."

The team leader suddenly reached out and handed something over.

Hu Le looked closely and found that it was the dream catcher that had been thrown away.

"Wasn't this thing thrown away?" he asked in surprise.

The team leader smiled and explained, "Don't forget, we are now dream creatures. If dream creatures want to find something, they only need to rely on their imagination."

"If you are not the master of a dream, can you change it through your imagination?"

"The master of dreams... Actually, this statement is also realized by imagination. Dreams are connected, so how can there be a master? It is only because you think you are the master that you have the 'master's ability'. Imagination can change a lot of things. Don't limit yourself. Just remember that in dreams, nothing is impossible."

"Go on." The team leader shook the dream catcher in his hand, and Hu Le quickly took it.

Holding this dream catcher that looked like a hair dryer, Hu Le felt it was a bit absurd and unreal.

"What's this gonna do? Will it help me wake up?"

The team leader shook his head: "Not only does it wake you up, it can also raise your perspective and allow you to see overlapping dreams..."

"Do you remember what I just said, dreams are like an onion? This thing can squeeze us out of the onion slices and turn us into a free existence like dream gas. You can choose to 'dream' or 'wake up' and reach the next level or the previous level."

"You can think of it as the buttons of an elevator, the elevator car is our own body, and our consciousness is the elevator cable, which we use to travel between different floors."

While listening to the team leader's explanation, Hu Le looked at the dream catcher in his hand with more and more shock in his eyes. He did not expect that this seemingly inconspicuous device could be so powerful.

"Is it a relic?"

"I guess so, but someone has already paid for us."

"What's the price?" Hu Le asked curiously.

Hearing this question, the team leader paused, and then gave an outrageous answer:
"It is said that it is a whole country's worth of kimchi."
