Chapter 1033

Just like Lu Mian entering the surveillance world, after Franca's vision recovered, she found herself standing on the deck of a three-masted sailing ship, with blue waves rising and falling all around and a wild wind howling past.

In front of her, at the bow position, was a young man wearing a half-high silk top hat, a black long trench coat, with his beard shaved clean, a thin but angular face, and bright eyes paired with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses.

Gehrman Sparrow.

The protagonist of the movie "The Great Pirate 3," Gehrman Sparrow, who was quite similar to Zhou Mingrui but colder and sterner.

Gehrman Sparrow looked at Franca with a swish, expressionless, his gaze cold.

Franca instinctively took two steps back, forcibly standing her ground.

Gehrman Sparrow looked at her, who had a high ponytail, a white T-shirt, and loose gray pants, for a few seconds, and asked in a calm voice:

"Are you an elder of Tracy?"

Tracy is the name of the Pirate Admiral "Disease Maiden."

Recognized that I am a witch? Franca glanced at Gehrman Sparrow's left palm, which was hanging at his side and seemed to be covered in a layer of human skin, and said sincerely:

"I am a subordinate of the 'Black Witch,' and she is the child of the 'White Witch.' Our two sides are not on good terms."

These were all the absolute truth.

—According to Franca's cognition, lying in front of Gehrman Sparrow was an act with a very low rate of return; once exposed, one would immediately encounter a storm-like attack.

Moreover, Franca did not know which souls were grazed inside the glove-shaped sealed artifact "Creeping Hunger" when Gehrman Sparrow in reality encountered the "Disease Maiden" Tracy. She only knew that in the story embellished by Ms. "Magician," the glove at this time could allow Gehrman Sparrow to use the "Psychiatrist" mind-reading ability, so lying indeed belonged to a high-risk act.

Therefore, honesty was the best strategy!

Gehrman Sparrow, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, observed Franca for a few seconds and said:

"What is your purpose?"

Lu Mian said that although Gehrman Sparrow in the movie is not exactly equal to the real Gehrman Sparrow, the original author of the movie is Ms. "Magician." When she created the work "The Great Pirate 3," she would inevitably put her own cognition of Gehrman Sparrow into it. And at that time, she already knew that Gehrman Sparrow was an avatar of Mr. Fool, driven by the subconscious, and would mostly fuse some of Mr. Fool's personality and choices into it. Therefore, to persuade Gehrman Sparrow to accept such an absurd thing, one must start from this aspect... Franca's thoughts turned rapidly, and she blurted out:

"We are the same kind!

"We are both transmigrators!"

Gehrman Sparrow looked at Franca without speaking.

He was holding a revolver in his right hand.

Franca explained seriously:

"We are transmigrators in time. Hehe, actually, it's not transmigration, but being frozen in a special place by a certain great existence. After waiting for thousands or ten thousand years, or even longer, we were released back into reality. You are like this, and so am I."

Without waiting for Gehrman Sparrow to refute her or shoot her directly, Franca quickly added:

"The name Gehrman comes from 'Bloodborne,' and Sparrow is the surname of Captain Jack in 'Pirates of the Caribbean.' They are spliced together to become your name."

After saying this sentence, Franca felt that the pressure brought by Gehrman Sparrow's gaze had obviously lessened.

She breathed a sigh of relief without covering it up and continued:

"I came to find you this time because the apocalypse will arrive early, and you inherited the legacy of the great existence that froze us and are a key link in dealing with the apocalypse.

"Are you willing to leave here with me and face the apocalypse?"

After making the request, Franca smiled awkwardly but politely:

"Do you believe what I said?"

Gehrman Sparrow looked at Franca without saying a word, making her exceptionally nervous.

After a moment, Gehrman Sparrow said in a low voice:

"I can try.

"But if I find out you are lying..."

With a swish, his revolver was raised, aiming at Franca's head.

Bang!

A bullet flew out, grazing Franca's head and hitting the cabin not far away.

Gehrman Sparrow retracted the revolver and said nothing more.

I have a "Mirror Substitute"... Franca complained in her heart.

She quickly approached Gehrman Sparrow and grabbed his forearm:

"I will take you to the gathering place right now!"

Yes, the task she was assigned was: find the movie "The Great Pirate 3" that was playing, and when the dream appeared abnormal and was about to stabilize, enter the screen and bring the image of Gehrman Sparrow into the dream city!

Once this kind of movie image leaves the screen and enters the dream city, it will soon dissipate, right? Moreover, my "Despair" potion has not been completely digested. What if the dream shatters because of this next? At the critical moment, Franca's heart was drumming, feeling very uneasy.

She didn't hesitate for too long, gritted her teeth, and muttered silently:

"Believe in that guy!

"Believe that the Major Arcana cards can still make up for it!

"At worst, I'll fall back to the 'Pain' Witch level!"

As her inner voice echoed, Franca pulled Gehrman Sparrow's arm and shuttled toward the outside of the screen.

Inside the Yangdu High-Speed Railway Station, which was half deep darkness and half dim light.

Zhou Mingrui looked at Lu Mian in front of him and said:

"You still chose the Gehrman Sparrow direction?"

His voice was steady, without the slightest ripple, just like a teacher pointing out a student's mistake.

"Yes." Lu Mian smiled, "But it's not An Xiaotian, nor is it Jia Yu; these were all options that misled us.

"My companion Franca went to watch the movie 'The Great Pirate 3.' That should be one of the last few screenings, and she is a 'Despair Witch' who can drill into the screen and bring out that Gehrman Sparrow from the movie."

Lu Mian emphasized the name "Franca," seemingly wanting the Celestial Worthy to remember it.

Zhou Mingrui smiled slightly:

"After the movie image leaves the screen, it can only be maintained for three seconds."

"What about adding the Gehrman Sparrow dream image woven by the 'Dream Weaver,' the large number of Gehrman Sparrow anchors in reality, and the widely spread Gehrman Sparrow stories and poems?" Lu Mian asked as if chatting.

Trier, inside a luxury villa.

Ms. "Justice," who was monitoring the changes in the dream city, stood up with a swish and said to all the Major Arcana cards:

"The mutation has appeared, let's begin."

Her voice was a bit tight, and her heart seemed not as calm as it appeared on the surface.

Ms. "Magician" immediately rose from the sofa and half-opened her arms.

A brilliant, dreamy gate of starlight appeared in the bedroom where Franca was sleeping, appearing in the light without darkness.

This gate opened heavily, revealing the thin gray-white mist inside.

Inside the mist, a city that could not be seen to the edge was looming.

Ms. "Magician" did not stop, forcibly opening another "door," an opening, on that gray-white mist.

At this moment, her face became translucent, and strange insects flickering with brilliant radiance were wriggling and crawling between her pores and hair.

Ms. "Justice" saw the cinema where Franca was through that hole on the gray mist, then closed her emerald-like eyes, raised her right hand, and began to weave the dream image of Gehrman Sparrow with her heart.

On the other side, Mr. "Sun" placed the "Fool" holy emblem on the altar that had been set up long ago and began to pray to the "Redeemer Angel" Gehrman Sparrow as usual, praising him repeatedly.

As a demigod of the "Sun" pathway and the Pope of the "Fool" Church, his prayers and praises quickly caused the altar to change. Dots of holy light emerged, surrounding the huge "Fool" holy emblem, making the surroundings appear more sacred and solemn.

At this time, Ms. "Hermit," who had arrived nearby, took off the heavy glasses on the bridge of her nose, imitated Gehrman Sparrow, pressed her hand to her chest, and performed a salute.

A scene instantly appeared on the altar.

In the scene, Gehrman Sparrow, wearing a half-high silk top hat and a black trench coat, was walking forward step by step on the barren land, in the dark environment illuminated by lightning, followed by a long line of people.

This is the "Mystic Reappearance" of the "Hermit" pathway.

—The matter of Gehrman Sparrow saving the people of the City of Silver and the City of Moon also belongs to mystical knowledge and can become a spell through "Mystic Reappearance," but because too many people know about it, the corresponding power will be very weak.

But Ms. "Hermit" specifically created the spell "Path of Salvation" not to deal with enemies or help herself; her only purpose was to fix the image of Gehrman Sparrow.

As "Gehrman Sparrow" came to the altar due to "Mystic Reappearance," those dots of holy light immediately crowded up, expanded slightly, and emitted ethereal, different voices:

"Praise to you, great Redeemer Angel!"

"Praise to you, the horn of Mr. Fool!"

"Please save me from suffering, great Gehrman Sparrow!"

"I repent to you and ask for redemption!"

"My idol is Gehrman Sparrow!

"I want to become a great adventurer!"

"..."

The voices related to Gehrman Sparrow echoed in layers, making the image of Gehrman Sparrow on the altar seem to stabilize and become a bit more substantial.

At the same time, at the entrance to the dream city opened by Ms. "Magician."

Ms. "Justice" successfully wove a Gehrman Sparrow wearing a half-high silk top hat and a black trench coat inside the cinema where Franca's figure had already entered the screen.

Throughout the process, she did not feel strong rejection from the dream.

However, as soon as Gehrman Sparrow's dream image took shape, it only lasted for three seconds before it uncontrollably, silently disintegrated and dissipated.

This made the few audience members at the scene instinctively applaud.

They increasingly believed that the beautiful lady who entered the screen earlier was a magic performance.
