What’s wrong with the dream world!

"..."

But in fact, No. 13 was still a little confused.

Officially, there are actually believers of "Real Dreamland". After all, "Real Dreamland" has been developing with bumps and bruises for more than ten years. If it were not for official protection, it would be difficult to always be regarded as a "cult" with low danger level and not in a hurry to deal with.

But even so, those believers are considered to be at a relatively low level in the federal system, and in order to avoid being caught in one fell swoop, No. 13 deliberately dispersed them so that the believers with sensitive identities did not know each other's identities.

What's more, Qianpeng City is a first-tier city, and the believers of "Real Dreamland" developed within the federal system simply do not have enough energy to cover up the actions of "Real Dreamland".

Although Thirteen had already made plans to turn the tables on the federal officials, so far, no one, not even the local superheroes, had received any orders to encircle and suppress him...

Number Thirteen glanced at the church window.

The afterglow of the setting sun dyed the scenery outside golden. There was still some time before the night that No. 13 was looking forward to.

Outside the church, besides the believers who arrived one after another, there were no superheroes in strange costumes, or special police equipped with real guns and live ammunition, or the military...

Why is that?

Number Thirteen was puzzled.

But he did not intend to stop his actions. After all, the arrow was on the string and had to be shot. If he did not solve the coming of the [nightmare] tonight, then the "real dreamland" he had painstakingly built for more than ten years would probably be burned to ashes.

That is the real paradise... the life that all those who desire a good life deserve...

As for why it went so smoothly, without any external interference, let's just assume that those with the fate of being "omniscient" are also looking forward to the arrival of the paradise that belongs to everyone. After all...

It is not only ordinary people who are obsessed with "nightmare" dreams.

……

……

Just as No. 13 thought, the rampant large-scale missionary activities of "Real Dreamland" in Qianpeng City have alarmed federal officials.

Especially when they learned that the A-level hero "Anchor" had actually come into contact with this kind of cult gang, the Supervisory Office of Qianpeng City became extremely alert.

As the officials of Qianpeng City began to devote their energy to the investigation, some of the past deeds of this illegal cult in other regions were also uncovered by them.

They increasingly discovered the danger of the illegal cult "True Dreamland".

In the center of Qianpeng City, in the municipal building, in that conference room, there was a heated discussion.

The reporter in charge of sorting out the intelligence was holding documents in his hands and speaking in conjunction with the slides updated in real time on the big screen. He spoke very fast, but not so fast that it was difficult to hear.

The people at the conference table were also flipping through the documents in front of them, browsing them intently while listening to the reporter's explanation.

[Cult name: True Dreamland]

【Faith Name: Nightmare】

[Number of fate owners: suspected to be two, involving the fields of "dreams" and "beliefs" respectively]

[Existence time: more than ten years, less than twenty years]

[Achievements: Once caused a large-scale wave of job losses; widely spread heretical ideas that are inconsistent with the core values of the Federation among the homeless, the disabled, immigrants, and low-income groups; based on the scope and frequency of activities, it is suspected that the owner of the "Dream" realm has been captured; currently, a large number of people with psychological hypersomnia have appeared in the area where they once operated.]

Danger level: multi-city level

[Priority: Process immediately! ]

"At this point, we have basically identified one of the fate holders behind this illegal cult."

A surveillance video appeared on the big screen, showing that No. 13, wearing a conspicuous dark purple monk's robe, left the urban village as if no one was around, right under the noses of the police who arrived.

The surveillance cameras in the urban village did not malfunction as they did in the past. Or rather, they never malfunctioned when faced with something that really required the federal government to take serious action.

"and……"

Just as the reporter turned around and glanced at No. 13 on the big screen, and was about to continue reporting and analyzing the abilities of No. 13 on the screen, his mind suddenly froze, and his words stopped immediately.

It was as if, in his perception, No. 13 on the screen was no longer a suspicious person with an illegal destiny that was not within the scope of federal registration, but an innocent priest who was trustworthy, amiable, willing to tell him anything, and willing to listen to any of his warnings.

In fact, not only the reporter, but also the bigwigs of Qianpeng City present and those who saw the surveillance camera suddenly felt a sense of resistance in their hearts, as if they were unwilling to believe that the priest with a melancholy temperament and a compassionate face on the screen was the mastermind behind the illegal cult.

Until in the conference room, a man in a white coat, who looked obviously different from the people present and had a more relaxed temperament, clapped his hands with a solemn face.

As the crisp applause rang out, everyone in the conference room suddenly realized what was going on and their thoughts returned to normal.

Realizing what had just happened, a flash of fear flashed across the eyes of these "big shots".

This... this is the owner of the destiny!

Even if they have never met him, even if there is only a video recording, even if the surveillance camera has completely recorded all his movements, or even if they have seen it with their own eyes...most people still cannot detect anything wrong!

The possessor of this kind of destiny that can change one's mind is even more frightening to ordinary people than the possessor of a destiny that simply has destructive power!

"Thank you for your assistance, old man."

The old mayor wiped the sweat from his forehead and expressed his gratitude to the owner of the fate behind him.

The old man, who was wearing a white coat and dressed like a doctor, but had the temperament of a well-educated scholar, looked amiable, with wrinkles all over his face and hair much grayer than the old mayor, just nodded slightly.

He is a person with a destiny that involves the field of "mind" and is this term's [Spiritual Mentor]. Although he is not a superhero, he is also a person with a destiny within the system - he is the president of "Qianpeng Destiny University".

"We need your advice. After all, as you know, it's difficult for ordinary people like us to distinguish the specific strengths and weaknesses of the owners of the fate. We can only judge by the general range, approximate ability, and the destructive power that can be caused..."

[Spiritual Mentor] looked deeply at the old mayor who seemed to be still frightened. He noticed that while the rest of the people in the conference room were more or less confused by the priest on the screen, only the old mayor had come to his senses before he activated his ability to "cleans the soul" to dispel the "induction".

However, this is actually not something suspicious. It would be strange if the person in charge of a city did not have any means of self-defense.

After all, the fate of some people can have an impact on ordinary people, adding various buffs, or allowing them to have special abilities... There are such fate owners in the federal system, and [Spiritual Mentor] knows a few of them.

And this elderly [Spiritual Mentor], a senior fate holder who is more respected by the federal officials than ordinary A-level heroes...

But one could not see the old mayor's brain which was wrapped in layers of chains.

Real Dreamland: Chapter 75 [Spiritual Mentor] · Ability Priority

After hearing the question raised by the old mayor, the [Spiritual Mentor] temporarily put aside his curiosity about the mayor's protection measures.

He looked at the screen with a serious face, and with sharp eyes that were completely inconsistent with his age, he carefully examined the gloomy young priest in the video.

Then, that sharpness inevitably turned into pity and sadness.

Although Thirteen possessed the ability to "induce," he lacked the ability to change his appearance or distort images. Shortly after leaving the institute, he clarified his life goals and, in accordance with his destiny, embarked on a missionary journey.

He never shy away from the public eye, which allows the Federation to actually have quite a lot of information about him. However, ordinary people and even many people with special fates would never doubt him after seeing this.

A young illegal fate holder, wearing tattered clothes, with a confused look on his face, holding a notebook with unknown graffiti in his hand, stretched out his thin arms again and again in the alleys, on the streets, and on the side of the road, grabbing people, opening and closing his mouth as if telling something.

The ordinary people who woke up in the conference room could only see the weirdness and feel fear, but the [Spiritual Mentor] only saw a young person with a gifted and powerful destiny, but no one could guide him properly.

The owner of this destiny, who has been engaged in the education profession for decades, can tell that number 13 is very young.

The educator felt pity for Number Thirteen, and at the same time, a burning anger ignited within him towards the other bearer of the "real dreamland." He believed it was the "nightmare," whose true face had yet to be revealed, that had corrupted the young bearer, leading him down a path of crime!

"Old man, please express your opinion. Everyone here is waiting for your advice before we can take the next step."

The old mayor's reminder interrupted the [Spiritual Mentor's] angry thoughts.

The old man took a deep breath and calmed himself down.

It wasn't the first time he had encountered this kind of thing, but every time he thought of the many people who could have been on the right track, but ended up going astray because they didn't receive proper instruction when they were young, he felt very sad.

This is also the reason why he did not refuse when the federal officials found him and asked him to serve as the president of "Qianpeng Mingge University".

……

"I can't give you any specific advice, but I can indeed provide you with some information that is only easily accessible to those who possess the destiny."

The [Spiritual Mentor] said in a deep voice:

"At present, we are unable to confirm the specific destiny of the young man on the screen, but we can confirm that he has the destiny of the 'faith' field through his dress and some of the abilities he has demonstrated."

'By dressing up?'

Could dressing also be a clue?

Is this a little... too ridiculous?

This question had just begun to form in the minds of those who were participating in the campaign against illegal fate holders for the first time in this meeting and who had not yet gained a deep understanding of the concept of fate holders. The [Spiritual Mentor] seemed to see through the anxiety beneath their calm and serious expressions and quickly explained:

"The term 'Mingge' isn't meaningless; it generally captures a particular characteristic quite well. Studies have shown that the vast majority of people with this type of Mingge habitually dress in a way that reflects their Mingge, like me."

The [Spiritual Mentor] pointed to his white coat, which was full of scholarly style and aura.

"I have a preference for similar styles of clothing. Although this hobby can be suppressed by subjective thoughts, few people with this fate would do so."

It turns out that when it comes to wearing clothes, people with certain horoscopes will have preferences that match their horoscopes?

In the conference room, a small group of people who were encountering this wonderful and trivia for the first time hurriedly took notes.

This is important information, but it's not meant for now.

Rather, it is to provide a reference for when you want to please the owner of that fate in the future.

Work doesn't just focus on the present, it also has a future...

The [Spiritual Mentor], who frequently interacted with officials within the federal system, was clearly accustomed to the flattering desires of some officials within the federation, so he quickly skipped over the topic and continued his popular science lecture:

"The title of [Destiny] also reveals abilities and areas of involvement. As a [Spiritual Mentor], I possess the ability of 'Spiritual Cleansing', which relates to the 'Spirit' realm, and 'Guiding Growth', which relates to the 'Development' realm..."

Having said that, the [Spiritual Mentor] has no intention of continuing. Most people with a destiny will develop their own [destiny], expand the areas it involves, and derive abilities, and these are often the privacy and secrets of the destiny owner.

The Spiritual Mentor continued:

"So theoretically, we can also use our abilities to infer fate."

"Although this method can only be applied to those [Fate] that are not appearing in the world for the first time, those [Fate] that appear in this world for the first time are always very rare. Moreover, as soon as they appear, they will usually be sensed by the fate owners in the Federation's 'omniscience' field. The possibility of escaping their sight is almost negligible."

"I've discerned the influence the priest on the screen is exerting upon you. It's also a form of 'spiritual' induction. Specifically, it manifests itself by lowering our inherent vigilance and increasing people's inherent curiosity during his preaching."

'Induction' is more difficult to detect and even guard against than ordinary abilities involving the mind, because it does not rely on the ability to forcibly distort and shape thoughts, but rather expands or weakens people's existing thinking to guide them to the desired action results.

"In addition to this, he has also demonstrated the ability to distribute the power of 'induction' to his followers, so his fate title likely contains elements of 'superior'."

"Aside from those currently active fate holders, there are currently two fates in the Federation archives that meet the above requirements: the Pope and the Priest."

"Considering his attire, whereabouts, behavior, and temperament... the latter is very likely."

As the president of [Qianpeng Destiny University], a [spiritual mentor] who has long been in contact with people with various destinies, and with the support of the Federation's huge information database, he deduced the destiny of No. 13 in just a few words.

The Federation, with a history spanning over a century and a territory encompassing half the world, naturally possessed a comprehensive system of experience and methods for dealing with individuals with fate patterns. While their overall predictions had some omissions, they were generally accurate, at least accurately deducing Number Thirteen's fate.

[Fate] is not something that emerged out of thin air in modern times. It has existed in this society for a long time and throughout human civilization. Naturally, it has left people with many effective experiences.

As soon as the [Spiritual Mentor] finished speaking, Major General Shen, who was always looking impatient on the right side of the old mayor, couldn't wait to ask a question.

"What if the target of this mission is someone who can control their clothing preferences, and whose abilities overlap with the two aforementioned [Fate], a [Fate] that has never appeared before?"

"..."

[Spiritual Mentor] fell silent and stopped talking.

The old mayor on the side frowned. In his opinion, Major General Shen was just trying to argue.

Director Bai, who was sitting to the left of the old mayor and had always been at odds with Major General Shen, and was still taking notes, noticed the old mayor's displeased expression and couldn't wait to taunt Major General Shen:

"So, do you think you can rely solely on the information we have, and use your logic like a detective reading a script to deduce a fate we have never had any relevant knowledge of?"

"That was not what I meant."

Major General Shen's face was gloomy, and he retorted unwillingly:

"But we have to prepare for the worst."

"worst plans?"

Director Bai was amused by Major General Shen's answer.

He was about to continue his sarcasm when he noticed that the [Spiritual Mentor] had already walked to the side of Major General Shen, so he shut his mouth.

[Spiritual Mentor] patted Major General Shen's shoulder kindly, and his words touched Major General Shen's heart deeply.

"Major General Shen, don't let fear overwhelm your composure, okay?"

Major General Shen's face was tense and his whole body was frozen.

Feeling the gaze coming from behind, he felt that his whole body was exposed in the bright eyes of the white-haired old man, without any obstruction.

[Spiritual Mentor] spoke in a gentle tone, like a patient teacher, but this only brought fear to Major General Shen.

"I know the Federation girls are putting a lot of pressure on your military... I know you're afraid of the recent military reforms... You see how we can easily accomplish what you need to sacrifice a large number of lives with just one or two people, and you're worried that you'll become dispensable from now on, and that you soldiers will be eliminated."

"But this is nothing but unfounded worry, Major General Shen."
