Just as the local patrolman was about to take me to the scene of the incident, Sister Bai's door was opened.
"Xiao Han, what happened?"
"Sister Bai, something has happened to those foolish dreams." I said in a deep voice.
"What? I'll go with you."
"But oh...it's better this way. I'll prepare my things, you tell me the place, and I'll go directly there." I was originally thinking about what to do with my body, but since Sister Bai followed us, I might as well go directly there in person. This will be just in case there are any accidents and I can solve them directly.
By the time we arrived at that area, it was already after the fact.
The only thing left at the scene was the cordon set up by the ground patrol team, and there were still a large number of people who had not left yet.
"gone?"
"I'm sorry, because I spent a lot of time looking for you, maybe..."
"I see. It's not your fault."
I simply replied and walked in here with Sister Bai. I could feel the breath of nightmare here. Even if the ground patrol team used Type I nightmare killer, they were not me. The nightmare was not dealt with completely, and there were still a lot of nightmare fragments left, so it was only treating the symptoms and not the root cause.
But those who were talking here, gossiping over there, were talking and laughing.
"That nightmare was gone in an instant."
"I'll just say there's something wrong with those cats, right? Otherwise those nightmares will just be staring at those cats."
"You are wrong. What the previous person said is correct. It is a good idea to sacrifice a cat to save a person."
As I got closer, I heard bits and pieces of gossip from those people, and they also noticed me walking towards them.
"Excuse me, what just happened here?"
"You do not know?"
"Sorry, I just got here. Is this another nightmare invasion?"
"That's right, but this time it's different. I heard that this time someone saw the cats suddenly run away collectively, and then, this place was haunted by the nightmare. This is too coincidental."
"Then, that person suddenly had an idea. He grabbed the cat and threw it towards the nightmare area. The nightmares no longer went after the person, but went straight for the cat."
"Wait...what do you mean?" Listening to their conversation, Yu Meng went out, and then was attacked by Nightmare. Nightmare used to be a part of Yu Meng, but Yu Meng was born with a fear of that part, so there was nothing wrong with seeking benefits and avoiding harm, but...what was the mentality of the person who threw Yu Meng to the place where Nightmare invaded?
"Why did that person do this?" I asked quickly.
"What? Are you still a member of the Wild Cat Protection Association? Can the lives of animals be more important to others?"
"Beast?" I stared at the person who had just spoken, and suddenly, that person felt cold all over.
"What? Isn't that right? Go away! We don't want to talk to you people from the Wild Cat Protection Association."
"Xiao Han, calm down."
At this moment, Sister Bai's words came softly from behind me.
"Too…"
After hearing what Sister Bai said, I calmed down. There was no need for me to get angry with such a group of people. It would only make things worse and would be useless.
Even talking to these people is considered dirty.
Afterwards, I learned from other people here that those foolish people who were invaded by nightmares would go crazy in an instant, which was different from ordinary people who would fall into a deep sleep when invaded by nightmares.
Because nightmares and foolish dreams combined together, it becomes a chaotic and disordered dream creature, and it can even have a real body. In the eyes of ordinary people, this disordered state is no different from madness.
And I also learned that when that person discovered that stupid dreams could attract nightmares and wake up those who had been invaded by nightmares, they would spontaneously throw back the escaped stupid dreams, letting the stupid dreams bear the damage of the nightmares.
The people who first did these things were the first group of people who were scratched by the crazy Yu Meng. Then they called the police or something. When the ground patrol team came to find out the situation, they found that the nightmare had been "solved" by these guys in this way, and then they captured those crazy Yu Meng.
That's why there are so many nightmare fragments left here. Not all nightmare fragments choose to invade Yu Meng. It seems that the people in the ground patrol team really know how to save trouble.
The remnants of nightmares here are destined to last soon. They will have nightmares, and their fear and other emotions will be sucked away by the nightmares, growing stronger until the nightmares invade here again.
It's their idea to use stupid dreams to deal with nightmares, but I'm too lazy to clean up the mess after they have brought this upon themselves.
"Xiao Han, are you okay?"
"I'm fine..." I took a deep breath again and adjusted my emotions. The more this happened, the more it tested my willpower and ability to control my emotions.
"Those people just returned the part that originally belonged to Yu Meng to them." I said in a flat tone as I accompanied Sister Bai to the headquarters of the Ground Patrol Team.
Bai Yu was silent for a while after listening to what I said. If one really wants to think so deeply about the essence of the problem, it is enough to show that Xiao Han is not in a good mood at the moment. When encountering such a thing, shouldn’t the most direct and superficial reaction be anger?
What those people did was enough for Xiao Han to raze this place to the ground instead of getting to the bottom of it and figuring out who was right and who was wrong.
"Xiao Han, don't suppress yourself like this. You just know more than them, but that doesn't mean that what those ignorant people do is right."
"Is that so... What Sister Bai said... is not wrong. No one knows the truth, so it doesn't exist. The behavior of those people reminds me of the savages in primitive tribes who sacrificed other people's lives to pray that disasters would not befall them. They are superstitious, stupid and selfish."
Of course, I am not saying that their selfishness is wrong, at least it is right for them, but they cannot afford the price of selfishness, so the boundary between right and wrong must be based on my definition.
“With the development of society, the changes in civilization, the changes in lifestyle, and the improvement of cognition, people cannot change certain things that are engraved in their bones.”
Afterwards, there was a silence between Zhixing and Sister Bai. They just quietly rushed to the patrol team, hoping that the people there would not do anything stupid.
Even though human life cannot be measured by value, to be honest, the subjective value gap between people in the eyes of other people is greater than the objective gap between people and dogs.
In the entire underground city, the most valuable things to me are those foolish dreams. They are even more valuable than the scholars in the extraordinary research base. Now I regret not revealing this fact to them.
"Scholar Xiaohan, you are finally here. We don't have enough people in the patrol team, and these cats are really giving us a hard time."
As soon as I arrived at the ground patrol team, a temporary captain wearing a ground patrol uniform came to complain to me.
"What about those stupid dreams? Take me to see them." I ignored their complaints and asked directly.
"This...we have detained it first. We originally wanted to send it to the base for shelter, but later we learned that you attach great importance to these cats...oh, Yumeng, so we detained it here first. I'll take you there."
When I followed over, I found that the ground patrol team had a place similar to a prison for detention. Along the way, I could see people who had committed crimes being detained, and it was still very messy here.
"Hey, hey, hey! What are you doing?"
"Captain... these cats are too small, and the gaps in their cages are too big. They will definitely get out if they squeeze through. Let's change them to a more secure cage..."
"No need, I'll do it." I stepped forward and waved my hand, and those foolish dreams were imprisoned.
"Xiao...Xiao Han scholar!"
"It's none of your business. You guys leave first." I said, and then the patrol team member left quickly, which was even more effective than the temporary captain's words.
"That... Scholar Xiaohan, these foolish dreams..."
"Invaded by nightmare."
"Invaded by nightmares? But shouldn't being invaded by nightmares mean falling into a deep sleep? These little guys have injured many civilians."
"So many civilians were scratched? Shouldn't you think about why those guys threw innocent foolish dreams into the nightmare area to attract nightmares? Those who were scratched were all those guys, right?"
“This… although it is true… but…” The temporary captain wanted to say something, but seeing the other party’s gloomy face, he dared not say anything. After all, he did not want to offend a scholar in the Extraordinary Research Base for those guys.
"We're going to arrest those guys right now. They entered the Nightmare blockade area without permission and used inappropriate methods to deal with Nightmare..."
"It's up to you. Besides, the nightmares in that area haven't been dealt with yet. They may invade again in a few days. Let the guys there fend for themselves."
"Not... not cleaned up?"
"Is the nightmare killer I developed for you just for show? You're still thinking of using these foolish dreams to deal with it? What do you think this is? A primitive sacrifice? Sacrifice one to save one? I won't bother with those ordinary people if they do something stupid, but you are the ground patrol team, and I don't want this to happen again."
"But... our patrol team doesn't have that many people. If they all go up, those idiots will really use this method. Our patrol team will be too busy to handle it, Scholar Xiaohan..."
"Then gather all the foolish dreams together. I will go to the base to apply for extra resettlement housing. You will be responsible for placing all the foolish dreams in the underground city there. If anyone deliberately goes there to cause trouble..."
"This..." At this moment, the captain was overwhelmed. After such a thing happened, no one would have a good time. He could only curse those idiots madly in his heart.
Why do those guys have to have these foolish dreams? Didn't the notice posted earlier say not to have foolish dreams? There is a scholar standing behind these little guys.
And now, he discovered that this scholar was somewhat protective of his own people... This was really a headache.
"I took these foolish dreams with me."
"Okay, okay, you can take it away now. Take care." The temporary captain spoke quickly when he heard what I said. After all, these cats staying here would only cause trouble for them. Now that this scholar is going to take the blame, they are naturally happy to do so.
After leaving the ground patrol team, I planned to go to the Extraordinary Research Base with the crazy Yu Meng imprisoned behind me. If possible, I naturally hope to apply for an independent resettlement area from the base to accommodate these Yu Meng, so as to prevent them from coming into contact with those bad guys.
And this won't take long. The actions of Tan Han, Ning Lanqiuyue and the others are destined to make it clear that this incident will be resolved soon, and we can go back with a clear conscience.
At the same time, I would like to give them a warning not to let their foolish dreams come into contact with those nightmares, as they will suffer the consequences.
"Xiao Han, are these stupid dreams difficult to deal with?"
At this moment, the base has arranged a containment room for these crazy Yu Meng. Besides Yu Meng, there are only Sister Bai and I here. Even if other scholars have noticed it, I didn't let them get involved.
"Of course it's troublesome. There is a trace of luck in the nightmares, and now they are symbiotic with the foolish dreams. In other words, the driving force of the script wants to drag these foolish dreams into the water as well."
“Xiao Han you…!”
"Oh, my contract has been cancelled. Sister Bai, you can't tell me. Just listen to me." I said with a smile.
"I know Sister Bai may still be confused about many things at the moment, but I don't have much time to explain everything to you bit by bit."
"I understand, Xiaohan, you don't have to say anything you don't want to say."
"Thank you, Sister Bai, for your understanding. Anyway, these nightmares are a bit troublesome. I now have the means to eliminate the nightmares in the nightmares, but when the nightmares are eliminated by me, the luck they carry will pass to me, so this is the main reason why I have not killed a single nightmare so far."
"But I don't have the confidence to separate the nightmare completely."
“If I want to cut off the shackles of the earth veins and break away from the main world, I’d better not be contaminated by the luck of the main world. Otherwise... unknown situations may arise, but the worst... I will just die once.” I said with a smile.
In fact, your luck does not transfer after you die, but you have to know how to die in order to transfer your luck, just like the luck transfer duel arranged by the dean.
Maybe... if you are killed by the Son of Luck, your luck can be plundered by the other party's Luck Seed.
So... is this the reason why the dean gave me the resurrection technique?
Another point is the revelation brought by the invasion of dreams into reality. After losing my physical body, my consciousness is the main body, which is equivalent to death. Life enters a "state of life and death". Resurrection is nothing more than creating another body for myself that carries the essence of my life.
"Die once? What stupid things are you talking about, Xiaohan?"
"It's okay. The dean has already made arrangements. Besides... there's something I haven't told Sister Bai..."
"What's the matter?" Bai Yu asked, suppressing his inner uneasiness.
"The essence of my life is my soul, which is immortal. Death to me is just a change of body."
"How... is it possible? Wait, Xiaohan, death is not just a change of body, don't think of death as that simple!"
"I know, so this is the worst outcome. Aren't our current efforts to change the course of things so that it won't lead to the worst outcome?" I comforted him.
Chapter 335: Violent Seizure of Power
The once bustling Ninglan New City has become deserted today. People who stay indoors are afraid of war, but the Ninglan city emblem on the door is a tacit approval of resistance. They do not need a city lord obsessed with the beauty of nightmares, nor do they need a city lord who uses the lives of citizens as food to feed nightmares for the sake of his own power.
Throughout history, when the city lord took over many times, the city was decorated with lights and colors as if it were a festival, but this time it was unusually deserted.
At this point in time of power change, invisible luck was surging over Ninglan New City, and dark clouds were scattering drizzles.
Another tide of energy in the void is gathering momentum to defend against the break in the earth veins from the outside world. As if foreseeing the coming of a disaster, with the Ninglan Shelter Stele in the center of Ninglan New City as the center, it is spreading the energy of the earth veins to protect it.
As people of Ninglan New City who have long adapted to this kind of earth energy, they feel the long-lost energy rush, as if it has stimulated the warlike genes that had been engraved in their bones thousands of years ago.
At the very beginning, the new city of Ninglan had just been built, and every activation of the Ninglan Shelter Stele represented the preparation to fight to the death with those mutated creatures.
Ning Lanqiuyu is the most core leader at this moment. The city guards who are already wearing Type II extraordinary armor are ready to go, lined up and fully equipped, with an awe-inspiring momentum.
As another helper for Ning Lanqiuyu, there are outsiders. Although these people cannot compare with the well-trained city guards in momentum, they are not inferior to the city guards in personal strength.
The most eye-catching thing is naturally the most dazzling holy light and wings of the Holy Angel Academy.
As one of the forces to deal with the strange methods of those nightmare demons, outsiders should not be ignored.
Ning Lanqiu Yu swept his eyes across the crowd, he knew that he could not wait any longer, his eyes inadvertently looked towards the location of Ninglan Township Fort in the distance, his desire for power swept away, after closing his eyes and thinking for a second, there was only determination in his eyes.
Ning Lanqiuyu was facing all the people in front of him at this moment, the city guards, outsiders, and the spontaneously formed resistance army. He drew out the long sword that had been eroded by time and pointed it at his target.
This sword was worn by the mayor who seized power violently for the first and only time in the history of Ninglan New City. Not long ago, it should have been on display in the history museum. Even after a hundred years, the inscriptions engraved on it are the culmination of people's previous understanding of extraordinary skills. At this moment, this sword will once again relive what it once witnessed.
"Brothers, all of you who have come from the Extraordinary Academy, and the rebels who are willing to support me and spontaneously unite with me! We gather here today for only one thing!"
"Our city lord, my father, has dedicated the first half of his life to Ninglan New City. But now, he is old. He is no longer a qualified defender of the city, and is no longer the kind city lord in our minds."
"Faced with the sudden disaster, the nightmare, and the nightmare that has been harming us for a long time, he indulged in the beautiful dream woven by the nightmare, and forgot the oath he swore when he took office as the city lord! He unloaded his responsibilities and forgot his citizens! Now, I! Ninglan Qiuyu, as the orthodox successor of the Ninglan lineage, will correct this mistake and continue the Ninglan New City! Even if the person I am about to face is my father, I will not be soft-hearted, because I know that behind me will be..."
At this moment, everyone was listening to Ning Lanqiuyu's passionate mobilization. The city guards' eyes were shining. They were witnessing history. There was fanaticism in the eyes of the rebels. It was the desire for power. No matter what their reasons were, when they stood here, they had already mortgaged their lives to Ning Lanqiuyu, because they believed that Ning Lanqiuyu would lead them to change the fate of Ninglan New City at this moment.
Even the students of the Extraordinary Academy who were outsiders, most of them were just boys and girls who had just stepped out of their cradles. Facing Ning Lanqiuyu, who was almost the same age as them, his words also stirred their emotions. Aren't they also witnessing history?
