Please ask the dream.

Chapter 11: Relaxation and Training

Feng Xue ate his lunch a little faster than he had in the morning when he was inexplicably slow. It wasn't because anyone urged him to eat lunch, but because Feng Xue noticed that even the residents of the single rooms who had their own meals ate very quickly, so he subconsciously quickened his pace.

Then, he realized the reason why he ate the meal so quickly.

Let the wind out.

The so-called fresh air allows prisoners to move freely in the open air. In addition to humanitarian reasons, the main purpose is to avoid psychological problems caused by long-term absence from sunlight.

The open-air area of ​​this prison was much larger than Feng Xue had imagined. The area where he was located was as big as a large stadium. The ground was covered with thick grass. In the corners there were various fitness equipment for venting energy, as well as basketball, football, badminton and other facilities. However, most of the prisoners were still squatting in the corners or wandering around aimlessly.

There is a tall tower at the four corners and the center of the exercise area. Looking up, you can see several prison guards with rifles looking back and forth. Seeing their fingers ready to stay on the guard ring at any time, Feng Xue has no doubt that they will shoot directly if the prisoners make trouble.

However, Feng Xue did not feel nervous at all. After all, he had just traveled through time, and the preferential treatment he received today did not make him feel like he was in prison. In fact, the work of operating the sewing machine in the morning was even less intense than his internship in college.

Looking along the barbed wire fence into the distance, past the factory buildings and cells, he saw a large tract of lush forest.

Yes, even after crossing the high wall in the distance that is estimated to be more than ten meters high, you can still see lush green.

Looking around, the scenery was basically similar, which made Feng Xue feel uneasy.

If this prison was not built in a valley surrounded by mountains, the trees outside would definitely be terrifyingly tall!
"Mr. Feng, is there anything I can help you with?"

Just as he was thinking aimlessly, a slightly slick voice came from the side, but the other party seemed very polite and stopped five meters away. Feng Xue turned his head and saw the colorful tattoos on the other party's body in prison uniform, and frowned slightly.

"An acquaintance?" Feng Xue became alert. He had noticed before that although both the prison guards and the prisoners currently had a certain degree of respect for him, when they were let out for exercise, everyone obviously stayed away from him intentionally, giving a feeling of "keeping a respectful distance".

As if noticing Feng Xue's change of mood, he immediately raised his hands and acted innocently:

"Hey, don't be nervous. There is no one in this prison who dares to do anything to you. I just saw that you seemed a little... um... I just wanted to provide you with some help. Of course, it will be paid."

As if realizing that some of his words might touch the nerves of the man in front of him, the tattooed, sturdy man simply skipped the polite words.

Hearing his speech, Feng Xue immediately remembered the prison-themed movies he had watched in his previous life, and immediately had an idea. At the same time, he also realized that his predecessor might have just been in this prison not long ago, and even today might be his first time to be let out for fresh air.

"What can you provide?" Feng Xue asked in a flat tone, trying to keep his expression as straight as possible.

The man's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he immediately said:
"Cigarettes, alcohol, some small 'handicrafts', magazines, newspapers, best-selling books and the like. I can't think of anything more. After all, as you know, the Beehive is not an ordinary place. There is not even a single person within a radius of hundreds of miles..."

"I don't know!" Feng Xue replied in her heart, but she was a little helpless. From what this person said, her previous life might have been a habitual criminal who often went to jail? No, compared to this, from what this person said, this prison doesn't seem to be simple either!

However, the situation before him did not allow Feng Xue to stay in a daze for too long. Feng Xue pondered for a moment, but ultimately did not ask about the prices or how to pay the bill.

In the end, no matter how much he paid, he probably couldn't afford it now. No matter what he said, it would lower his status as a person who inexplicably enjoyed special treatment. In the end, if he was suspected of catching a substitute, he would be really finished. So, he just shook his head and said:

"Nothing is needed yet."

Although the man felt a little disappointed with this reply, he didn't seem too surprised. He just said goodbye politely and walked towards the other prisoners again.

Seeing the man walking away, Feng Xue found a pillar to lean on, but he was actually practicing the self-questioning method.

After a morning of review, he already had a general understanding of the architect system.

First of all, the source of the architect's ability is a special particle called "imagination materialization particle (abbreviated as G·I particle)".

This type of particle is widely present in every corner of the world, but it has a certain similarity with the brain waves of living things. In a sense, intelligent creatures, including humans, can produce G·I particles through thinking.

These G·I particles produced through thinking carry personal imprints like fingerprints. When they resonate with free G·I particles in the natural environment, they can unfold a field called the G·I force field, which is the basis for the architect to exert his ability.

On this basis, if you want to achieve the effect of realizing your fantasy, you must rely on [imagination], [will] and [belief].

If the architect's ability is compared to raw materials, imagination determines its plasticity, willpower determines its durability, and belief determines its strength.

If we understand it using the Stand panel, imagination determines the Stand's ability and growth, willpower determines endurance and range, and belief determines destructive power, speed, and precision of movement.

The first stage of the architect's practice - [Inquiry], is to train one's concentration through visualization and other means, starting from "constructing a single object in consciousness" to resonate with the G·I particles that are everywhere in the atmosphere. As the process becomes more proficient, the architect will be able to gradually become aware of the existence of G·I particles and actively intervene in them.

For a novice, visualization is actually a complicated and lengthy process. However, for Feng Xue, this does not seem to be a problem. With the experience of imagining a campfire in the "Orphans on a Snowy Night" level, he feels that this level should not be difficult.

"But this is a prison after all. Fire is a bit too eye-catching. It would be better if it were inconspicuous, like stone or water..."

Thinking of this, Feng Xue immediately decided to start from a drop of water - first of all, a drop of water appearing out of thin air would not attract attention, at most it could be said to be sweating, but more importantly, when Feng Xue linked visualization, state of mind, concentration and other words together, he would involuntarily think of the phrase "clear mirror and still water".

Closing his eyes, Feng Xue followed the feeling from "Orphan on a Snowy Night" and slowly drew an ellipse in his dark thoughts...

Pointy on top and round on the bottom, clear and transparent, with a little bit of reflection...

A drop of water quickly took shape in Feng Xue's mind, and even began to fall slowly, but it did not appear in reality as the knowledge given by the golden finger said. He even had no sense of the field described in the knowledge, which was produced by the resonance of G·I particles in the outside world.

"Don't be impatient, don't be impatient. I'm still a novice. It would be strange if I could get started right away..."
