I have a Tantric panel

In the ward.

Xia En sat up in bed.

It's still early morning.

Outside the lead-lined wooden-framed window, the sky was still a hazy gray.

There was a slightly chilly atmosphere in the air.

Winter is just around the corner.

Winters in the capital are damp and cold, like wet wool wrapped around your bones; the cold isn't crisp, but seeps in inch by inch.

But compared to what I had just witnessed, this chill was nothing.

No, how could this attract the attention of the moth mother?

Xia En had a strange feeling and looked thoughtful.

In her previous dreams, Clara showed a strong connection with the moth.

It was as if some force was secretly guiding Clara down the path of madness.

This power is continuous and uninterrupted.

Therefore, Shane was busy preparing for the White Canvas Award and didn't have time to give Clara dream therapy.

Her offset will continue to decrease.

To move closer to the principles of the moth.

on the other hand.

Julian Harrison's connection to the principles of "Moth" further illustrates the existence of this influence.

—It was only after leaving Scotland Yard that Shane learned from Lucius that Julian was Clara's older brother!

Combining these two points.

It's not hard to guess that the Harrison family likely has some kind of potential connection with the moth.

maybe……

Clara is the one chosen by the Moth Mother!

Shane's actions were tantamount to pushing Clara into the arms of other pillar gods.

This act of "intercepting" would naturally displease the moth mother.

That fleeting glance just now might have been for that reason.

Shane then recalled Clara's father's unusual behavior.

Was the head of the Harrison family truly unaware, or... deliberately condoning it?

Either way, it's highly suspicious.

Xia En glanced at the [(Moth) → (Casting)] on the panel again and stroked his chin.

Is it not that it's biased towards "lamp," but rather that it's become "casting"?

This may be related to his last two sentences.

But Shane had heard a story.

The characters 【蛾】 and 【铸】 are essentially similar.

It's the same thing: breaking free from shackles and undergoing a complete reshaping.

However, compared to the moth, the shaping of the cast is more controllable and follows order and rationality.

Could it be... that she is about to follow the same path as her brother?

Xia En let his thoughts wander freely.

In fact, he didn't care which criterion Clara leaned towards.

Because his goal is "offset", rather than necessarily requiring a deviation from the "light" criterion.

For example, the panel has already provided feedback.

This [Soul Point] is of extraordinary significance.

This means that after claiming all nine points of the "New Player Gift Pack".

Shane finally earned points through the [Offset/Guidance] method.

It now appears that the standard for obtaining rewards based on [Offset] is 50%.

Around 100%, will you be rewarded with another [Soul Point]?

Xia En closed his eyes, his consciousness sinking deeper and deeper.

Quickly enter the state of [Deep Dive Meditation].

At this moment, deep within his mind, he could still see several other points of light.

The colors of the light spots are all different.

Some were extremely bright, while others were very dim.

If Shane is not mistaken.

These points of light represent the spirituality of different people.

And the only people who have seen his paintings recently are probably...

The judges of the White Canvas Award?

Shane had a bold idea, but quickly dismissed it.

He sensed that he could not successfully enter a dream with every point of light.

Especially the largest and brightest white spot of light, which was clearly blocked by an invisible barrier.

As soon as he got close, he felt a sense of resistance, as if it were rejecting his entry.

It seems that the spirituality of extraordinary individuals automatically defends their dreams from intrusion by others.

in other words.

If Xia En wants to continue to obtain Soul Points through Dream Entry, he should prioritize selecting those who are not yet extraordinary but have certain potential.

After a brief meditation, Shane reopened his eyes.

Having two dreams in one night will affect your energy during the day, which is not worth it.

He stood up and looked out the window.

The street below the hospital was quiet.

The white cypress trees on both sides of the road stood quietly, their leaves withered and yellow.

The atmosphere of late autumn spreads silently.

Shane was pondering what kind of painting he should create to help Clara's mother with her "illness".

That's right, he has already come up with a way to cure it completely.

[Entering a dream], or [entering a dream]!

Since he could enter Clara's dream and help her escape from the silk cocoon...

The same principle applies.

If Clara's mother sees her own painting, she may also be spiritually moved, triggering the mechanism of "entering a dream".

Of course, it's easy to imagine.

This mother's dreams are only more insane, chaotic, and dangerous than Clara's.

Therefore, there are two prerequisites.

Firstly, it is to create a painting that possesses a greater spiritual quality.

Ideally, the passion level should be raised to (2).

At the same time, in order to deal with the dangers that may be encountered in the dream, one must become stronger and go further on this side of the veil.

With that in mind, Xia En opened the panel.

[Secret Technique]

[Deep Dive Meditation Method: 1 (10%)]

[The Candle of Truth: 1 (23%)]

At this point, the percentage after the candle burns out is no longer the value of the remaining total amount, but rather its own progress.

In other words.

This [Secret Skill], like other attributes, can also be upgraded.

Perhaps, upgrading the candle to (2) will unlock some new abilities?

Xia En was quite looking forward to it.

……

……

As dawn breaks, the bells toll.

The sun quickly climbed high into the sky.

Meanwhile, Shane and Eileen were already preparing for Shane's discharge from the hospital.

At the bedside, Dr. Hope, examining the wound, couldn't help but make a strange expression.

Like looking at some rare animal.

With a gentle lift, the scab fell off Xia En's body, revealing smooth, fair, and tender new skin underneath.

He looked as if he had never been injured at all.

"Your injury healed way too fast."

"It's just that I have a special constitution."

After offering a casual explanation, Xia En quickly led Eileen out of the ward.

He did not leave the hospital immediately after leaving the room.

Instead, they went up the stairs to higher floors.

At the end of the corridor, outside a private ward, several bodyguards were waiting not far away.

Upon seeing Xia En approach, they stood up and bowed respectfully.

"Mr. Shane."

The sight of these burly men bowing together was quite spectacular, drawing the attention of passing doctors and nurses.

Eileen was slightly surprised.

"Wow, that's impressive!"

Xia En controlled his expression, nodded to the bodyguards, and walked into the ward.

On the pure white hospital bed, Freya sat half-upright, her face still pale, but her spirits were not bad.

Her gaze swept over Xia En, a hint of surprise flashing across her face.

She remembered that before she fell into a coma, Xia En had suffered multiple knife wounds and was covered in blood.

And now...

They didn't even put on a bandage?

But considering Xia En's previous performance, it seems like this is nothing.

"Are you being discharged from the hospital?"

"Um."

Shane nodded: "How is Miss Freya's injury?"

"It's alright, it just takes some time to recover. Unfortunately, the tour has to be put on hold."

Freya abruptly changed the subject, her tone revealing a sharp edge.

"I will not leave the capital until the mastermind behind this is brought to justice."

"I may need to trouble you again, Mr. Shane, for the next period of time."

Even sitting on the hospital bed, the girl still revealed a hint of the sharpness that belonged to [Blade].

This is precisely what Xia En admires about her.

Xia En smiled: "I'll help."
