Chapter 1013

No one could answer Lady "Magician's" question. This involved matters at too high a level and lacked sufficient prerequisite information.

Lu Mian directly used this as an argument and thought as he said:

"If the symbolic meaning of sharing a room and moving out is really this, can it be considered that one of Peng Deng, Grisha, and Nie Zhen is the one currently believed in by the 'Aurora Order'? If He has entered the dream city."

Because the one currently believed in by the "Aurora Order" is the result of the fusion of the consciousness of the "Visionary" and the "True Creator," and He seems to want to merge more.

"Initially, it can be considered so. It's just that He might randomly use one of the three images of Peng Deng, Grisha, and Nie Zhen," Lady "Justice" affirmed Lu Mian's guess.

Lu Mian said thoughtfully:

"When we observed Peng Deng for the first time, the car broke down, and we happened to meet that person from the Church of Steam nearby. He helped us repair it quickly, and we also took the opportunity to establish a connection with Him.

"Is this a coincidence created by Peng Deng? He hopes we get help from that person from the Church of Steam?"

Lu Mian didn't directly mention "Cristiano." It didn't matter to say it in the dream city; after all, both sides were WeChat friends. But in the real world, even an incomplete god's honorific name could bring extremely terrible consequences.

"It should be," Lady "Justice" pondered for a few seconds and said.

At this time, Jenna, who had roughly understood the situation, raised a question:

"Did God arrange for Franca and me to suddenly enter the underground area of Dawn Hospital so that we could master important intelligence, discover key details missed before, interpret the remaining symbols, and find the correct direction to weaken the Celestial Master and awaken Mr. 'Fool'?

"Franca becoming a 'Despair Demoness' and quickly digesting half of the potion is the advance reward?

"But this contradicts the motivation of the one currently believed in by the 'Aurora Order.' We previously speculated that He prefers to maintain a balanced situation until He achieves His goal in the real world, and only then let Mr. 'Fool' wake up, so as not to be influenced by Mr. 'Fool' in His plan."

In the brief silence, Lu Mian looked at Anthony:

"Tell me in detail about the process of you being kicked out of the dream."

Anthony recalled and said:

"After Peng Deng hinted that he was still someone else's childhood friend, we didn't go deep into the details of this aspect. We talked simply about the renovation, agreed to find a time to see the house in person, signed the contract, and left the coffee shop separately.

"As soon as I left Peng Deng's sight, I had the feeling of being kicked out of the dream and rapidly becoming a marionette. I 'soothed' myself, eliminated the fear, but was still unable to get rid of that state, so I could only stop resisting and leave the dream."

Lady "Justice's" eyes moved and said:

"That is to say, Peng Deng is strictly monitored by the dream's subconscious.

"If he is indeed one of the dream images corresponding to God, then he would indeed be treated like this. The one worth being treated like this by the dream's subconscious is Him.

"So, Peng Deng doesn't meet Zhou Mingrui at night and hasn't made any other attempts. Under strict monitoring, he simply can't do it.

"The matter of him renting the magic mirror also has a reasonable explanation. The birth of that magic mirror is suspected to be related to God.

"Similarly, the reason why the Star Dream Grocery Store is willing to rent the magic mirror to him is also sufficient.

"Uh..."

Lady "Justice" looked at Anthony:

"When you contacted Peng Deng for the first time, you produced hallucinations due to fear and actively left the dream. This might have been done deliberately by Peng Deng. His purpose was to remind you to be careful when contacting him, to be as cautious as when contacting Zhou Mingrui."

Inferring to this point, Lady "Justice" nodded gently:

"This time he actively hinted to you that he was also the Celestial Master's childhood friend, which appears unusual."

Lady "Magician" and Lady "Judgment" looked at each other and said:

"Combined with the matter in the underground area of Dawn Hospital, can we consider that the one currently believed in by the 'Aurora Order' hopes to let Mr. 'Fool' occupy a certain upper hand in the near future, and gradually wake up with our help?"

"It could also be the tendency of God's spiritual imprint, and the one believed in by the 'Aurora Order' didn't suppress it," Lady "Judgment" gave a possibility.

Lu Mian thought for a while and revealed a slight smile:

"Another possibility is that the one believed in by the 'Aurora Order' foresaw that the dream city will have a major mutation, a mutation favorable to the Celestial Master, so He let Franca enter the underground area of Dawn Hospital in advance to contact that psychological shadow as a hedge.

"It could also be that a certain problem appeared in the real world, for example, the last vortex incident left hidden dangers, which made the one believed in by the 'Aurora Order' have to start the plan to weaken the Celestial Master and awaken Mr. 'Fool' in advance. Hehe, the sky is about to collapse, and we urgently need a tall person to hold it up?"

"Hidden dangers..." Lady "Magician" seemed to have guessed something.

She said to Lu Mian:

"Regardless of which possibility it is, things seem to have become urgent.

"From the key intelligence that Mr. 'Fool' is a 'transmigrator,' we can infer the problems of Peng Deng, Zhang Yujia, and others, and the uniqueness of the identity of Gehrman Sparrow. The former currently looks like friendly forces. As for the latter, the breakthrough is temporarily only An Xiaotian."

Lady "Magician" looked at Lady "Justice" and Lady "Judgment," gritted her teeth and said:

"We allow you to use Li Keji's mushrooms to treat An Xiaotian."

Lu Mian "hmm"-ed:

"Good."

Jenna followed and nodded, and she turned to raise a new question:

"But the voice Luo Shan heard in the dream was the 'Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun,' and the power that made us transfer to the underground area of Dawn Hospital out of thin air doesn't look like that person's."

Lu Mian laughed:

"I have already guessed who did it."

"Who?" Jenna felt quite stunned.

He guessed it just like that?

Lu Mian laughed "hehe":

"Huang Tao, Huang Zong."

He then added:

"A more accurate title is Emperor Roselle in the mirror."

Lady "Justice" and the other Major Arcana cards all nodded slightly.

Lu Mian continued to explain to Jenna:

"Emperor Roselle in the mirror has a cooperative relationship with Zarathustra, so after entering the dream city, he tried to occupy the identity of Huang Zong. At the same time, Zarathustra has always suspected that Luo Shan has a problem and secretly reminded Zhou Mingrui. And Emperor Roselle in the mirror is an angel of the 'Hermit' pathway."

These were all intelligence mastered before.

"Based on this, we can make an inference. Zarathustra should have asked Emperor Roselle in the mirror, who can control information and influence paintings, to help confirm whether Luo Shan is wrong. Emperor Roselle in the mirror reorganized the information of that colorful parrot, controlled it, and let it monitor Luo Shan, but didn't feed back the intelligence obtained to Zarathustra.

"This is because Emperor Roselle in the mirror is secretly cooperating with the one believed in by the 'Aurora Order,' just like the last vortex incident," Lu Mian looked at Jenna and summarized. "Luo Shan was stimulated, appeared to have a psychological shadow, was discovered by that colorful parrot, and told Emperor Roselle in the mirror. Then, Emperor Roselle in the mirror used the trust of the Celestial Master's forces to secretly 'push' it, letting Luo Shan take you and the true target Franca to transfer to the underground area of Dawn Hospital in a dream."

Jenna suddenly realized:

"Then there's no problem."

Anthony, who was beside her, had learned from Lu Mian about the key point that Mr. 'Fool' was a "transmigrator" and what exactly happened last night before probing Peng Deng, so there was no communication barrier now, and he understood the previous conversations quite easily without raising questions.

Lady "Justice" looked at them and said with a smile:

"The serious business has been discussed. I will roughly tell you about Mr. 'Fool's' experiences, starting from Klein Mo Leidi..."

The corresponding matters were actually mentioned in the previous data, just not detailed enough. This time, Lady "Justice" seemed to have seen and heard it with her own eyes, starting from the Antigonus family notes, all the way to the end of the Tingen story.

After a silence, Lu Mian asked in a slow voice:

"Captain Dunn and Klein Mo Leidi died like that at the Blackthorn Security Company, to stop the birth of the 'True Creator's' offspring?"

"Yes," Lady "Magician" laughed at herself. "Now I understand why Klein Mo Leidi could be resurrected."

"Loki's" several resurrections are a good example.

Lu Mian fell silent.

Jenna said with great emotion:

"No wonder Officer Dunn in the dream city is also someone who maintains order."

After sighing, she asked curiously:

"The final matter has so many details. Was it told by the survivors at the time?"

"Right," Lady "Justice" nodded.

Jenna had a flash of inspiration:

"Mr. 'Star'?"

The Major Arcana card Mr. 'Star' is exactly the "Nighthawk" of the Church of Evernight!

Lady "Justice" smiled slightly and didn't give a clear answer.

Lady "Magician" changed the topic:

"Luo Shan in reality also said that the more she hates others becoming Beyonders, the more she worships the 'Nighthawks'."

Jenna "hmm"-ed and said with some emotion:

"No wonder Luo Shan in the dream city has always wanted to become a qualified guardian..."

After a brief silence passed, Lady "Justice" and Lady "Magician" took turns talking about Mr. 'Fool's' different identities like Sherlock Moriarty and Gehrman Sparrow.

They didn't dare to be too detailed, only picking the key points to tell, fearing it would delay the matters of the dream city.

Finally, Lu Mian stood up and said to the Major Arcana cards and his companions:

"I'll return to the dream city first."

Lady "Justice" stood up and nodded gently:

"We will notify the other Major Arcana cards and let them be prepared to provide help at any time."

Lu Mian nodded, returned to the second floor all the way, entered his own bedroom, and lay on the bed.

He looked at the ceiling, not falling asleep quickly. In his mind flashed bits and pieces about Mr. 'Fool,' and flashed the things that the Major Arcana cards focused on telling.

After a long while, Lu Mian finally fell asleep.
