[Himeko: It's alright. For the Nameless Ones, the unknown is actually a compass on their path of exploration. Besides, it involves a senior like myself. We can handle the information gathering ourselves. But Miss Robin, could you tell us how you got into Dream Reef?]

[Robin: To be specific, this might sound a bit unbelievable, but it was actually "memes" that brought me here...]

******

At this moment, Himeko, as the navigator, has undoubtedly clarified the direction of the exploration, and this process is like a qualitative change from 0 to 1!

However... after going around in circles, it all came back to "memes". In the live broadcast, Xingbao and the others surrounding Gu Jing looked at him with strange eyes.

[Silver Wolf: Good heavens! You knew all along, didn't you, @Gu Jing?]

[Gu Jing: I didn't say I didn't know. From Teyvat all the way to now, everything that's happened is a story I've seen countless times before, but I was always just an observer, unable to get involved.]

[Gu Jing: Now that I've experienced this event firsthand, I'm naturally trying my best to enjoy the wonderful process and also want a happy ending, just like Kiana and the others often say: to turn this imperfect story into the way everyone hopes.]

[Bai Lu: But the problem is... I've noticed you're seeing women every day.]

[Gu Jing: Nonsense, isn't it a normal man's duty to find himself a wife? Can't you fall in love just because you're saving the world?]

[Black Tower: Not bad! There's no conflict between the two!]

[Black Tower: And didn't you guys notice? Our brother had his eye on Cocolia when he was in Beloberg, and then he set his sights on Huanlong when he got to Xianzhou. But you have to admit, in the end, he really did save the world with his good looks!]

Those who only realized what was happening then widened their eyes in astonishment: "—!!!" (Image of a beautiful woman in shock)

Hanabi and the others, who had only recently received the diary, were also stunned by the display of power, with only one thought in their minds: "How is this even possible?"

[Gu Jing: What are you saying? I'm not the kind of person who sells men; I'm just lusting after their bodies. But then again, now that we've found this far, the mystery of Pinocchio is almost solved.]

[Gu Jing: But speaking of which, I actually have a few questions I'd like to ask everyone.]

[Gu Jing: I guess it's a way of brainstorming; I just want to understand everyone's true thoughts.]

[Silver Wolf: Tell me about it!]

[Gu Jing: So, the first question is—as Ms. Jade mentioned before, some people are disabled in reality, but can enjoy a wonderful life perfectly fine in the dream world. Do you all think this is a good thing?]

[Bai Lu: This is definitely a good thing!]

[Xingbao: If you ask me, it would be even better if it were free.]

Bronya: Indeed, this is a very real problem; not everyone can afford the cost of dream entry in the long run.

[Ruan Mei: Not only that, if he can remain in the dream world for an extended period, he could actually try using the rehabilitation techniques developed by the Bo Shi Society, and might be able to return to a normal life. However... I don't deny that the dream world also has its merits.]

People actively offered their opinions and ideas regarding the question raised by Gu Jing, until the discussion gradually subsided.

[Gu Jing spoke again: Yes, I have received everyone's answers.]

[Gu Jing: Next is the second question—If someone wanted to establish a new kingdom with seven days off every week, where everything is free and people can enjoy a wonderful life without having to work, the only requirement being that everyone in the kingdom must obey His commands, what do you think of this person and His kingdom?]

[The raven couldn't sit still: Is this for real?]

[Danzhu was also somewhat flustered: Captain! Where is this country? Let me ask for Senior Sister Klein!]

[Möbius: ???]

[Silver Wolf: Isn't that a bit unrealistic? Even if everything were free, everyone's food and drink would be a huge expense. Without labor, there would be no production, right? How would anyone survive? Would they just starve every day?]

[Xingbao: Hmm... why is it another real-world problem?]

(The goodness of money) [March 7th: Because reality is often just that awful!]

[Gu Jing: That's it. But perhaps I didn't explain clearly before. Let me clarify: the premise of raising this question is that you don't need to work and you won't have imperfect food. The so-called 'everything is free' has already solved all your worries. The only requirement is that everyone in this country must obey His commands.]

[Hanabi: Pfft~ So, the guy who wants to build this country is basically treating everyone like his own pigs?]

Everyone: "¨〃..." How vicious! But this analogy actually seems to be quite accurate! (laughing and crying emoji)

The barrage of comments from Hanabi was like a powerful, screen-clearing attack, and the entire live stream fell silent at that moment.

Gu Jing couldn't help but chuckle: "A very interesting metaphor."

[Gu Jing: One last question—it's already 22:18 PM system time, which is quite late, but so far no one has invited me to go to bed together. Anyone want to volunteer?]

Everyone: "???" You've been building up for so long just to ask this, haven't you?!

Seeing this, Silver Wolf and the others in front of the screen were both amused and exasperated. This damn guy, he wouldn't feel right unless he got a fever every day!

But how should I put it—

Although I felt that the first two questions might be hinting at something, it really was late at night, around 10 p.m.!

P.S.: The picture shows a robin (this name is truly indescribable for the author. *laughing emoji*).

Chapter 289 Black Tower: You're the one with the best observation skills!

Although it was said that he volunteered, when Xingbao and Huahuo both expressed that they had some ideas, Gu Jing simply brought Black Swan, Firefly, Huangquan and others to Chengehu as well.

This made them quite nervous, but after a little teasing, Gu Jing took Xingbao and Huahuo to the second floor to explore.

Before disappearing completely, it left behind a message: "Everyone can rest in Chengehu tonight. Those who are not in a hurry to rest can wander around the area. Those who want to have a late-night snack are also welcome. There are no restrictions here. Come and visit my home. Have a great time. We'll go back to Pinocchio tomorrow."

Huang Quan and the others naturally had no objections to this, and Alicia and the others who wanted to befriend them also smiled and came forward.

And to be honest, when Huang Quan actually saw Aying, Mei, the general, and the others, he was also greatly shocked; conversely, when they learned that Huang Quan's name was 'Raiden·Wangchuan Guardian·Mei', Mei and the others present were equally surprised.

However, they had just finished introducing themselves when they suddenly noticed a familiar vibration coming from the copy of the diary.

Regarding the matter of returning to Chenge Pot midway through the journey—

Those who know me well should know that I usually don't return to Chengehu during work hours.

However, this time the situation is rather special.

[We could also call Pinocchio's current state a 'dream of Taiyi'.]

I really want to do something in someone else's dream.

If it's Hipper, I wouldn't mind.

【Picture.jpg】

【Taiyi, let's forget about it.】

[After this thing is upgraded to a Star God, it seems to have just big eyes.]

[If you want to expand...]

[It's definitely more reassuring to be back in Chengehu after 803.]

Speaking of pioneering, I used to think that boys were more suited to be navigators.

But what about Hanabi and Hoshibo?

[I suddenly feel that the passenger seat isn't so bad after all.]

Hehehe~~~

After watching, the entire living room fell silent. Huang Quan and the others blushed furiously. Someone was showing off even when they weren't in front of them!

However, the contents of this diary entry already clearly indicated that what happened in Pinocchio was indeed related to the Star God, and that this Star God was the fallen "Order." This result undoubtedly surprised Black Tower and the others.

After all, it is well known that "order" is absorbed by "harmony," but now it seems that this is only a superficial phenomenon. What is not known is that this situation has actually led to the appearance of "order" noise in the harmony of "harmony."

But what's the point of posting Hipe's picture? Does this guy have designs on the "Tong Xie" star god? Thinking of this, they realized they couldn't post comments. Black Tower and the others laughed in anger. Tonight was destined to be a sleepless night.

*******

By noon the following day, Gu Jing and his group returned to [Golden Moment]. Having clarified their general direction, the next step was simply to move forward steadily.

He started a live stream on the street, and the Black Tower and others who had been waiting for a long time flocked into the live stream room. They were immediately amused when they saw that Ji Zi, March 7, Huang Quan, Black Swan, Xing Bao, Liu Ying and others who had been brought to Chen Ge Hu by someone last night were all there, but Hua Huo was missing.

[Silver Wolf: Good heavens! You two went too far yesterday, didn't you? @Hoshi, @Hanabi? Hanabi has completely disappeared today?]

[Hanabi: Ugh~ Don't even mention it. It's all because Little Gray was so stubborn and wouldn't admit defeat. I just didn't have the energy to get out of bed today.]

[Xingbao: Don't you understand? Opportunity always favors the prepared. I've known this day would come for a long time, and I've asked the older sisters for advice countless times. Is it my fault that I'm not good at it? If I'm not good, I'll just practice more! Isn't it good to practice dancing in my spare time?]

[Hanabi: Tsk~ You're so annoying~ Do you really think winning once means winning forever?]

[Xingbao: At least I wasn't the one who was crying and laughing yesterday.]

[Hanabi: It's not me anyway! At least—at least not the current me!]

[Black Tower: Pfft~ Perfect! As a qualified Masked Fool, you know how to 'deceive yourself'!]

[Qingque: Tell me, how was that feeling, Xing?]

[Danzhu: Yes, yes, yes! I love listening to that too!]

[Xingbao: Well... I won't go into the details.]

[Xingbao: If you guys are really interested, then let Brother Jing teach us personally. After all, I'm a newbie myself, and all I can say is—exploring with Brother Jing is really comfortable! And incredibly addictive! If we weren't still exploring Pinocchio today, I'd be thinking about nothing but getting close to Brother Jing!]

[Silver Wolf: Tch~ It's like you said nothing at all. Listening to you was a waste of a minute, and besides, you're really obsessed with exploring new frontiers!]

[Xingbao: Sigh~ I've opened the door to a whole new world! As a pioneer, I absolutely love exploring! (Girl proudly hands on hips.jpg)]

[Xingbao: By the way, let's explore together sometime @March7th!]

[March 7th: Pfft! Shut up! Did you catch Ah Jing's bad luck? Don't you have any shame?]

[Xingbao: But there's really nothing to be ashamed of, right? It's all going to happen sooner or later. Are you planning to be ashamed your whole life?]

Unlike people who are ashamed to speak up, the gray-haired girl clearly has no sense of shame, which is both funny and sad. Silver Wolf and the others can't help but think to themselves: There's a reason why this guy can become the protagonist. In this situation, he's really awesome in every sense!

Seeing this, Gu Jing didn't say anything more, but he still affectionately ruffled the gray-haired girl's hair.

Such encouragement made Xingbao even happier, and Huang Quan, with her cheeks slightly flushed, couldn't help but ask, "What are you planning to do next?"

Gu Jing smiled in response: "Let's go take a look at Liumeng Reef."

******

In the blink of an eye, Huang Quan and the others discovered that the surrounding scenery had changed; this was the real Pinocchio – Dream Reef.

But compared to the extremely prosperous [Golden Hour], the dream world called Dream Reef is dimly lit and looks lifeless.

Continuing forward, Gu Jing and his group arrived at a rooftop piled with miscellaneous items. Here, they could also see a 'black hole' formed from condensed memory matter. The sight of stars constantly rotating around the black hole was quite spectacular.

On the platform, a Tianhuan woman with short green hair was muttering calculations to herself.

On March 7th, someone approached her to strike up a conversation. The Tianhuan tribe woman, somewhat impatient at being disturbed, still introduced herself:

"Hello, I am Ke Mei, a dream surveyor specializing in memory dynamics. I am currently researching my life's work."
