Chapter 97: Sister's Letter (4K)_2
Because many abilities are transmitted remotely through "dreams."
According to the documents left by the Meida Civilization on "supernatural phenomena that cannot be understood," at least 30% of supernatural accidents are related to dream abilities.
Cases like "Nightmare Cannibalism" and "Serial Mental Breakdowns," once controlled by dream manipulation, could potentially affect one's mental state and lead to further insanity.
Of course, Lu Yuan wasn't too worried about this, as the Extraordinary Spark had a stabilizing effect on the mind, and there were also some protective mechanisms in the brain. As long as he ignored these strange voices, there wouldn't be a big problem.
Just as he was about to disperse this noise, suddenly he heard another voice.
"Lu Yuan, you don't have to go on blind dates now! Mom and Dad said they won't force you anymore, because with the Extraordinary Spark, everyone can live a very long time!"
No way!
Lu Yuan felt like crying but had no tears. I admit, I'm a little desperate now, as long as a normal girl comes along, I could accept her.
Not letting me go on blind dates, this dream is actually a nightmare!
"I've been feeding those little turtles of yours every day."
Little turtles?
"They poop a lot, and now there's not enough water supply, it's really annoying... I'm thinking of releasing those four turtles of yours."
Lu Yuan remembered he indeed had raised four turtles... so many years had passed, he'd almost forgotten...
What level of nightmare is this!
He hesitated for a moment, let his guard down, and let the voice in: "I want to see what you are, daring to impersonate my sister."
He hadn't "exploded with Gold Coins" for a long time, and sometimes he missed his family dearly.
Unexpectedly, as he relaxed his mind,
nothing happened.
There was just a white paper airplane that appeared abruptly in the Qingming Dream and flew into his hand.
It was covered with dense text.
Lu Yuan scratched his head, finding that he couldn't read it at all... that's right, he couldn't read it.
He hadn't studied dreams much.
According to the research of the Meida Civilization, if one does not have the corresponding ability, coming into contact with dreams is not a good thing.
Because even the most powerful Extraordinary Life has a fragile soul.
Battling unknown enemies in a dream is unnecessary and carries high risk.
So the best way to resist is simply to sleep and ignore it.
The Extraordinary Spark can disperse dreams, and as long as there are no dreams, no demons and ghosts can get close.
Of course, Lu Yuan wasn't that scared either; he had his own ace up his sleeve.
He discovered that his "Tree of Life" seemed pretty awesome in the dream...
The "Tree of Life" in the real world was only a little over a meter tall, but in the dream world, it was a hundred meters tall, lush and leafy, shimmering with green light—this was indeed a significant Soul Companion worthy of being called a late-stage Milestone.
And the clump of "Extraordinary Spark" hanging in the sky, illuminating the dream.
Together with the Tree of Life, they formed a stable little scene.
"What's all this text about?" Lu Yuan pondered for a long time but couldn't make heads or tails of it.
Normal people's dreams also include books, but the text within is often garbled.
He had a feeling that this paper airplane was quite important, and he needed to figure out how to read the text on it.
"Huh—" Lu Yuan took a deep breath and merged with the Tree of Life.
Now he had become a tree!
Then, he could see the text clearly!
[Brother, hello. Please do not be surprised, this is a letter transmitted through a dream.]
[We do not know if it will be successful, but we tirelessly send them out, the current letter number is 11029, we have sent over ten thousand letters already.
[Your poor little sister is using a printer in her dreams to photocopy these pages, haha... Even I find it quite magical.]
[What's the connection between dreams and reality? No one knows.]
[To accomplish the massive project of "locating you," we contacted four cities, totaling ten ability users with divine skills.]
[Things like divination, dream entry, locating people, telepathy, dream sensing—I only discovered for the first time that there are so many masters. Together, everyone can perform a lot of miracles.]
[Right, I happen to be a dream sensing ability user. Looks like our genes aren't bad, eh? A family with two born with divine skills.]
[This paper airplane was projected by an ability user with the projection ability.]
[His darts are incredibly accurate... We suggested to him subconsciously, and he was sure to hit the mark.]
[So this ability user sent out a lot of paper airplanes, not sure if they could make it into your dreams...]
[... (A lot of gibberish)]
[What I need to tell you is, Yunhai City is safe now, and we are living quite steadily. We have even completed a milestone in our civilization... it's called Stable City... The three people from Meida have also reached a milestone, they are quite lucky... (A lot of gibberish)]
[We can handle food and medicine. Don't worry, everyone is living quite adequately.]
[Other cities, too, are hiding in safe zones, each with their difficulties. But they can hold on for the short term.]
[It's only been 15 days here, but it must have been 1500 days for you. Forgive your poor sister who can't understand what kind of life you're leading or offer any comfort.]
[I just hope you can be a bit stronger... Okay, the power of words really isn't great, everyone always hopes you can have a bit of a better life, just surviving is good enough.]
[Some people say you're already dead and there are some terrifying videos; I cried secretly, feeling you definitely wouldn't die...]
[... (A lot of gibberish)]
[Initially, we wanted to meet you in the dream, but Pangu Continent is too terrifying, and many methods are dangerous. Careless, and you could all be wiped out in the dream.]
[We could only use this relatively safer method.]
[Hope you can receive one of these letters, however slim the chance.]
[In the foreseeable future, we will continue doing this.]
[Don't worry, we will grow stronger. I have already accepted the inheritance of the Extraordinary Spark and am diligently training... In 15 days' time, I have inherited the Spark ten times. We must be among the first batch.]
[Seeing your video of passing on the Spark, I was quite happy too... Everyone calls you Teacher Lu, but I think, you really look like a Caveman!]
The content behind this was just a jumble of mixed-up words.
Lu Yuan felt a small touch of emotion, although most of the time, his sister was annoying, constantly blowing up his Gold Coins, but at times, she seemed not too bad?
He stared at this small note and felt joy, but also a sense of urgency in his heart.
Because there were indeed many, many words that couldn't be seen clearly...
Dreams and reality are not quite the same after all.
Just as he concentrated and stared intently, suddenly, a mass of black mist emerged from the paper airplane.
It formed into a decaying human head at an extremely fast speed.
Without features, just a face, sticky, foul-smelling, the face smeared with thick, fresh blood.
It let out strange laughter towards the enormous Tree of Life, contaminating the world with its blood.
"Ah, I knew I'd encounter something weird... If only I knew what this thing is, it would be nice to be able to capture it," he sighed lightly, as if he had foreseen this event.
This letter... was highly likely to be real!
Where would monsters come up with such credible information?
But human power is too weak; even with several people with divine skills collaborating, it's practically impossible to traverse such a distance to deliver a letter from dreams... It's truly difficult, with an incredibly low probability.
Now that such a possibility has arisen, it's highly likely that this monster in front of him helped out a bit.
The decaying head spread rapidly, trying to transform the dream into a nightmare.
"What a piece of shit," Lu Yuan cursed indignantly.
"Fucking thanks a lot," he said.
