On the Ark.

Horn Peak looked at Lin Ye and gestured with his lip: "Didn't you sleep well last night?"

"No," Lin Ye scratched his head. "It's fine."

"So you were dreaming?"

"how do you know."

"Because you talked in your sleep all night."

Lin Ye: "..."

Horn Peak couldn't help but ask, "May I ask what you dreamed about?"

"What... what am I talking in my sleep about?"

“‘Heh, you actually dare to come back,’ and other things, but I didn’t quite catch them,” Horn Peak said. “He was just laughing the whole time, laughing all night.”

Lin Ye: "..."

So, is Horn Peak's haggard appearance due to his laughter and sleep talking? But that doesn't make sense. He never talks in his sleep, and I've almost never heard anyone say that he laughs out loud in the middle of the night... Could it be a side effect of his ability?

If that's the case, then when someone enters a dream in the dorm, wouldn't it be like he's talking in his sleep and Ansel is grinding his teeth, and who knows who will wake whom up in the end?

Why did my mind wander to such random places again...?

Lin Ye quickly came to his senses and apologized to Jiao Feng.

Horn Peak sighed, but shook his head and didn't pursue the matter: "Never mind, it's only for a few days anyway."

"I'm sorry, but why didn't you wake me up last night, or change my room?" Lin Ye couldn't help but ask.

Horn Peak said with a serious expression, "How could I possibly change it? This is a room bestowed upon me by the gods; how can I leave it so easily?"

Lin Ye found it hard to understand: "Messiah... no, can't you leave the room that God gave you at will?"

“Of course.” Horn Peak replied with an expression that seemed perfectly natural.

...Is this what you'd expect from a religious country?

Lin Ye was speechless for a moment, but then he remembered something and asked, "Do you know how to go to the toilet?"

Horn Peak listened and fell silent.

……

"Good morning...or good afternoon?" Messiah sat in the same spot she had been in yesterday, greeting Lin Ye with a smile.

"Good morning... Good afternoon." Lin Ye sat down next to Messiah just like yesterday. Looking at Messiah's perfect profile, he suddenly thought that if the door to the main hall was not closed tightly, Chu Xue, as the Saintess of Kalan, might rush in and angrily accuse Lin Ye of disrespecting Messiah.

After all, in the entire Kalan, including Chuxue, no one was qualified to sit alongside Messiah. But Lin Ye, a non-Kalanite, sat so casually next to Messiah. If the Sherag people found out… just thinking about it, it's quite exciting.

"I have a feeling you're thinking about something strange," Messiah said slowly.

Ah, I almost forgot that this god might be able to read minds.

He immediately snapped out of his reverie and said, "No, I wasn't thinking about anything."

Messiah smiled: "If you don't think about anything, won't your brain die?"

Lin Ye didn't know how to respond.

"Judging from your expression, you must be here to tell me about your dream last night, right?" Messiah tilted her head and looked at Lin Ye.

“Yes.” Lin Ye nodded. “I did successfully enter Mephistopheles’ dream.”

"Oh, is that person's name Mephistopheles?"

Lin Ye was somewhat surprised: "You don't know his name?"

Should I know?

"You are a god."

“Because I am a god, a god who has lived for so long, I rarely remember the names of mortals.” Messiah tapped his head with his finger. “Because whenever I think of them, they are often no longer alive.”

Lin Ye thought about it and realized that it made sense.

Messiah picked up his teacup: "So, how was your first experience with the dream?"

"My first experience..." Lin Ye subconsciously prepared to answer Messiah, but then felt that the way he said it seemed a bit wrong, a bit evil, so he skipped it directly, "I went to a dream called Mephistopheles, and in the dream he was just a child."

“A child? That’s good. Children have the weakest psychological resilience,” Messiah said. “You can use dreams to inflict the greatest harm on him.”

"Hmm... his reaction is quite strong, at least in the dream. He can't remember anything from when he grew up," Lin Ye said. "However, whenever I try to actually hurt him, I get ejected from the dream. Why is that?"

"That shows your scare was spot on," Messiah said with a smile. "It woke him right out of his dream."

"But is this a good thing or a bad thing? I feel like this means I won't be able to really hurt him in the dream."

“So what? Even if you kill him in your dream, you won’t be able to harm him in the slightest in reality,” Messiah said. “As long as you can exert enough pressure on him in your dream, then you have achieved your goal.”

"Hmm...you're right."

Messiah turned to look at Lin Ye and asked with a smile, "I have a feeling there's something else you want to ask me. Why don't you ask it all at once?"

Lin Ye's thoughts were directly exposed, making him feel a little embarrassed. However, since Messiah had already said so, there was no point in hiding it. He hesitated for a moment before finally asking hesitantly, "Um, did you come into my dream last night?"

"In your dreams?"

“No, it’s Mephistopheles’ dream,” Lin Ye said. “Since you can enter my dream, you can also enter his dream, right? I don’t mean anything by it, I just want to ask if you were in his dream last night? Or did you see his dream?”

Lin Ye was very nervous when he asked that question. After all, he had been so focused on venting his anger last night that he hadn't considered that his actions might have been witnessed by a deity. By the time he realized this, it was too late; there was no way to salvage the situation.

Messiah saw through Lin Ye's thoughts, and smiled with a slight upturn of her lips and narrowed eyes.

"Guess."

……

Author's note: I spent a day traveling with two author friends, and I finished typing this chapter in the hotel. There probably won't be many updates until I send them back, but I'll make up for it at the end of the month (by the way, the illustrations are finished).

Chapter 256 Lappland: I think she's a false god

Lin Yesheng hates it when people say things like "Guess what" to him.

"What a nutcase! Why make people guess when a few words can explain it?" Lin Ye wanted to slap people who liked to be mysterious and say, "See if I want to guess." Of course, this thought usually remained just in his mind, and when the other person was the Messiah, a god of Kalan, he wouldn't even dare to think about it.

Not only did he dare not think about it, but when the Messiah asked him to guess, he dared not not guess: "I think you didn't see it."

Messiah nodded: "Hmm, I didn't see it."

Lin Ye breathed a sigh of relief.

Then Messiah asked, "Isn't using scissors too inefficient?"

Lin Ye was taken aback at first, then suddenly realized what was happening and leaned back instinctively: "You really did see it!"

Messiah's smile widened, but Lin Ye felt a bitter taste in his mouth. Last night, he was so busy being perverted in Mephistopheles' dream... no, it was more like venting his emotions... no, that's not quite right either. He was just trying to teach Mephistopheles a lesson, but he didn't control the degree well and went a bit too far.

If I had to put it bluntly, it wouldn't be considered too extreme, especially compared to what Mephistopheles himself had done. But if the Messiah had seen all of this, then it would truly be...

“The wicked will be punished by the wicked, should I say that?” Messiah said.

Lin Ye turned to look at her.

“Every life has value.” Messiah stood up, walked to the maple tree, and raised her hand. A maple leaf slowly drifted down into her hand. She gently clenched her fist, then turned to look at Lin Ye. “Do you think so?”

"Of course." Lin Ye didn't quite understand what Messiah meant.

Messiah smiled: "Yes, if it were you..."

He stopped halfway through his sentence.

Lin Ye noticed a slight change in Messiah's expression, as if he had discovered something interesting. Then he saw Messiah raise his head, look at the roof beam, and speak again: "If you've come to find me, you can come down here. This house is very old; if you damage it, I don't know where to find someone to repair it."

Is someone on the roof?

Lin Ye was stunned for a moment, and before he could react, he saw a white figure jump down from the roof and land in the main hall.

"Lappland?!" Lin Ye recognized the person and was shocked. "What are you doing here?"

The one who jumped down from the roof was Lappland, whom they hadn't seen for two days.

Lappland stood up straight, crossed her arms, and said quite confidently, "I'm sleeping."

"Sleep...sleep?"

"Yes."

Why are you sleeping on someone else's roof?!

"If not on the roof, then in your own bed?" Lappland retorted.

Her matter-of-fact tone caught Lin Ye off guard at first. He thought to himself, "Oh right, if I'm not sleeping on someone else's roof, am I supposed to sleep in my own bed? It seems like there's no problem at all."

But when he finally realized what had happened, he cursed himself inwardly at how low his IQ had become.

Compared to the easily startled Lin Ye, Messiah's expression remained unchanged. She had been observing Lappland with great interest. After Lappland finished speaking, she said leisurely, "The Lupo tribe? Is it a branch of the Snow Clan? Quite interesting. I haven't seen them for many years."

Messiah's words attracted the attention of both Lappland and Lin Ye.

Lappland looked at Messiah with wary eyes: "You know my race?"

“Yes,” Messiah nodded. “Didn’t I already say it?”

“Oh…” Lappland tilted her head, “It seems so.”

After saying that, he felt something was wrong, so he drew his sword and pointed it at Messiah.

"Wait, where did you get that from?!"

Lin Ye was startled by Lappland's sudden action.

In the territory of Kalan, they drew their swords against the god of Kalan. If First Snow were here, I wonder if she would be so angry that she would grab the Holy Bell and smash it on Lappland's head.

"Lappland! What are you doing!" Lin Ye shouted, "Put down the knife!"

Lappland ignored Lin Ye; her entire attention was focused on Messiah. For some reason, even though Messiah was unarmed and didn't seem to possess much fighting power, she felt a sense of danger, though she didn't know where this feeling came from.

Of course, the main reason was that Lappland did not see the Messiah that night. If she had seen the Messiah stop the natural disasters with her own eyes, she probably wouldn't have had such doubts.

Despite having a knife pointed at her, Messiah's smile didn't fade. She said calmly, "Your reaction is so intense whenever your family is mentioned. Has something happened to your family?"

"I want you to take care of it!"
