Please ask the dream.

Chapter 53: First Hearing of the Fantasy Dreamland

Lines of text unfolded before my eyes, and a slightly shabby room came into view. Several young men in Qingyun military uniforms sat around a dining table, with a pot of steaming stew placed in the middle of them.

Although it was just a static CG, Feng Xue could clearly feel the relaxed atmosphere around these people.

As the scene unfolded, three options appeared before Feng Xue:

1. Rest.

【2. Entertainment.】

【3. Training.】

There are still no hints, but the training item is undoubtedly for improving one's own skills, and the remaining two seem to be options for restoring sanity. However, considering that "previous nodes may affect subsequent plots", it may also be an option to restore irreversible damage to the body.

In addition, another thing to consider is that there should be more than three options in the safe corner. You may encounter other options when you enter the same node next time.

But now...

Feng Xue glanced at his san value which had dropped to 39 without him noticing, thought for less than a second, and then chose to train.

How do you say that?

No matter how powerful you are in the pigeon world, it is still fake.

Compared to the training that can actually be fed back into reality, the option of restoring san value is simply too low!
Of course, if it could be fully restored at once that would be another matter, but based on Feng Xue's understanding of the drop values ​​of the golden finger, he estimated that the maximum that could be restored was 15 points.

As the choices were made, the picture became blurry, and then the scene shifted to a dilapidated village.

In the window of the room behind him, he could vaguely see his companion who had fallen asleep, and a line of words also appeared at this moment -

[Although it is a rare rest time, you are responsible for a difficult task and do not intend to miss any opportunity to exercise. However, due to the environment, the skills you can exercise are really limited. ]

【Please select the skill you want to improve. 】

The skill list unfolded in front of him, and Feng Xue frowned slightly. The node text was not just a compliment, the skills that appeared in front of him were indeed limited.

However, Feng Xue did not have any hesitation this time. He did not even consider how much the upper limit of this node could be increased, and he had already made his choice.

Because he saw "Architecture" in the skill list.

However, to his regret, the safety corner node was not like the self-training in Longchang Enlightenment, but it was like a skill unlocking ticket, adding a lot of knowledge out of thin air.

"The knowledge of professional-level architecture is only limited to Dream Seekers? But the standard for reaching the Dream Seeker level is to construct the so-called 'Dream Key' through imagination, and then actively log into the 'Dreamland'? Damn, why is this name so unlucky!"

Feng Xue frowned as he browsed through the information at a glance, but soon, his uneasiness, which was simply caused by the overlap of his "name" with a system in his previous life, was overwhelmed by greater confusion.

Because he suddenly discovered that his golden finger was not brought by his time travel!

Or--

Not at all!
For example, the 20-sided dice whose usage has never been known since it appeared (see Chapter , Snowy Night Orphan for details), and the san value on the top of the head that has a similar function to the health bar, all belong to the system of the architect of this world! To be precise, it is the pinnacle of the architect of this world, the powerful one known as the Creator, who added rules to the Dreamland in order to make the architect's exploration of the Dreamland safer!

According to the knowledge of the professional architect unlocked this time, the so-called dreamland is a spiritual world formed by the intersection of the G·I force fields inadvertently emitted by all intelligent life forms in this world. To some extent, it can be considered as the common dream of all living things.

By exploring this dream, one can improve one's affinity for G·I particles. At the same time, the "matter" in the dream is itself the "crystallization" of G·I particles. By "occupying" it through some means, one can "record" it, greatly reducing the difficulty of constructing corresponding things in reality.

However, the Dreamland is not a benefit but a curse for humans, because this world contains the self-consciousness of countless lives and is directly connected to every human being. This means that when the architect explores the Dreamland with his spiritual body, the complex spiritual imprints in the Dreamland will also erode the architect's spirit.

This resulted in exploring the Dreamland being almost a taboo when the architecture system first appeared. When humans who entered the Dreamland and whose realm was below the Shadow Chaser level all fell into madness without exception.

Without the support of the Dreamland, only super geniuses with extraordinary talents can reach the realm of Shadow Chaser.

However, later on, as the "creators" embedded rules into the dreamland, the difficulty of exploration decreased.

Today, even a self-assured person may enter a dreamland by chance, and for that person, it is no longer a misfortune as was believed hundreds of years ago, but a God-given opportunity.

According to the knowledge gained this time, since the first Creator, there should be a total of nine Creators who have completed the embedding of the rules, but only six of them are truly understood, namely -

1. The Dreamland will extract the G·I particles of each architect to construct a role card, and the architect's spirit will explore the Dreamland by manipulating the role card.

2. After each architect enters the Dreamland, his mental state will be quantified into a san value, with a maximum san value of 100. Whenever he is polluted by the Dreamland or his mental state declines, the san value will decrease. When the san value returns to zero, the character card will automatically collapse and trigger a pop-up mechanism, ejecting the architect from the Dreamland.

3. Every architect will get a dice after entering the dreamland. In each exploration, there is a chance to roll the dice and strengthen oneself in a specific direction according to the number of points on the dice. The larger the number of points on the dice, the more specific the direction of strengthening and the higher the degree of strengthening.

5. After defeating the monsters in the Dreamland, you can get spoils.

6. There will be prophet huts in the dreamland for issuing tasks, and you can get corresponding rewards by completing the tasks.

7. Nightmares and sweet dreams can transform into each other.

……

"The fourth, eighth, and ninth items are missing, and the seventh item is also a bit confusing. It should be a hidden annotation or the following text." Feng Xue repeatedly reviewed the knowledge in his mind, and after confirming that he did not read the wrong number or miss one, he finally determined that the knowledge corresponding to these three items might have surpassed the professional level.

only……

"The fourth one is beyond the professional level, but the fifth, sixth, and seventh ones are still targeted at the professional level. This shows that the numbers are not arranged according to a limit. In other words... is it an established order? Then the seventh one means that only this riddle can be known by the professional level, and the subsequent parts can only be touched by higher levels?"

While thinking about these things in his mind, Feng Xue once again turned his attention to his golden finger.

Whether it is the new body after entering the node, the san value as the blood bar, or the unused dice, they are all directly related to these rules. Even the collections and nodes have some similarities with the rules of the prophet's hut, monster drops, etc.

This made it difficult for him not to doubt whether his golden finger was a by-product of time travel or a native product of this world.

only……

If they are native to this world, on what principles do those collections that obviously contain meme elements work?
