Chapter 901

When Lu Mian saw that bear-like shadow, he relied on his spiritual intuition to confirm that this was a Black Dream Tapir.

He immediately drew the "Sword of Courage" and jumped down from the top of the cliff under the illumination of the dream's red moon. The hood attached to his cloak flipped up because of this, revealing his black long hair, exquisite face, and light blue, deep eyes.

Boom!

The scorching white and cyan flames nailed the black shadow in the shape of a wild bear to the ground, blowing it to pieces.

Those shadow fragments swam away quickly and recombined into the shape of a tapir in the distance.

This is not a real dream; most damage cannot be reflected on the main body, so it cannot cause direct death, at most causing damage to the spirit and becoming a vegetable!

That bear-like Black Dream Tapir turned to Lu Mian and roared in a low voice.

Accompanying this roar, the scene around Lu Mian changed, from the primeval forest at the bottom of the cliff to Cordu Village near the green grassland under the blue sky and white clouds.

Lu Mian returned to the old tavern, with absinthe floating with dreamy green in front of him, and the surroundings were full of Guillaumes and Pierres.

They were telling vulgar jokes and slandering people from other villages.

The familiar aroma of wine pierced into Lu Mian's nose. Outside the window of the old tavern, Aurora's house was magically reflected. A figure wearing a blue light dress and draped in thick golden hair was sitting on the roof with her knees hugged, looking up at the sky.

One of the abilities of the Black Dream Tapir is to use the emotions like happiness, joy, and delight it has absorbed to make the target fall into the most beautiful scene they miss, unable to extricate themselves.

Seeing the female figure holding the iron-black giant sword stiffen, the Black Dream Tapir ran over on all fours.

It wanted to eat up this scene and all the good emotions the other party generated because of it.

Just then, it felt as if something was burning behind it and turned its body subconsciously.

It saw another Lu Mian, a Lu Mian with invisible anger burning in his eyes and scorching black flames covering his sword.

And the Lu Mian who was addicted to the past Cordu Village dissipated rapidly, leaving only a mirror.

Lu Mian raised the "Sword of Courage" burning with the "Flame of Destruction" and split the Black Dream Tapir into two pieces from top to bottom.

Clearly knowing that life in Cordu Village could not be returned to, the more he missed that kind of beauty, the more he was stimulated, his heart pained, and his anger surged!

In a slight explosion, the black flames suppressing madness and violence attached to the two pieces of the Black Dream Tapir's shadow, burning them continuously, making them significantly paler.

The Black Dream Tapir's shadow merged together again a few dozen meters away, but it was much weaker than before. Lu Mian's "Flame of Destruction" seemed to have really hurt the part of its consciousness that had infiltrated this dream.

Fear appeared in the eyes of this Spirit Realm creature. It stood up on its hind legs, and its dark eyes were stained with blood-red color.

It wanted to use the dream to turn into one of the images the target feared and dreaded most in their dreams, to intimidate the other party and create an opportunity for its consciousness to escape the dream and return to the Spirit Realm smoothly.

In the blink of an eye, the Black Dream Tapir's body swelled to an abnormally tall size, emitting an extremely crazy, extremely cruel, extremely bloody, and extremely violent aura.

It also created nearly invisible flames.

The next second, the Black Dream Tapir itself let out a scream of extreme fear and extreme pain.

It was ignited by the invisible fire it had created itself, and its body was filled with the terrifying aura it had imitated itself, almost losing its self.

Seeing this scene, Lu Mian was stunned for a moment, then curled his lips and laughed in a low voice:

"How could the image that makes me fear and dread be so easily disguised?"

Is the "Blood Emperor" someone you can imitate too?

Imitating a god means inevitable backlash!

The Black Dream Tapir was already rolling in the dream in pain, but it couldn't extinguish the invisible flames burning itself no matter what.

It escaped the dream with extreme difficulty. Lu Mian didn't stop it but activated the black mark on his right shoulder and followed it to the Spirit Realm.

The owner of the dream, Kevil, saw in the form of corpse parts that the girl who descended like a red moon falling slashed the bear-like shadow monster twice in a row and let it be completely ignited. His heart gradually became less fearful and afraid.

He stared blankly at that elegant and clean side face, at those slightly pursed light red lips, at the bright face that was completely different from the giant sword used, and felt as if he were dreaming.

No, this is really a dream.

Lu Mian chased to a place in the Spirit Realm and saw that the Black Dream Tapir's main body had already ignited itself. Its painful wailing made those strange-looking creatures around choose to stay away.

Lu Mian watched quietly, flicked a cluster of black flames restraining irritability and scorching heat over, and let it land on the Black Dream Tapir.

In just a few seconds, the Spirit Realm creature burned out and turned into bits of pitch-black powder.

Lu Mian stretched out his palm and caught these powders.

Observatory District, inside the apartment Lu Mian rented for Lugano and Ludwig.

The little boy wearing children's formal wear and a small bow tie poured nearly a hundred milliliters of Absinthe into a cup, then added the Black Dream Tapir's powder, lemon juice, ice cubes, a kind of sugar wine, and other ingredients.

In the end, that full glass of strong liquor had a golden base and turned into a green and black intertwined color, which was quite good-looking.

"Wow, a drink that makes people want to drink it," Franca exclaimed with an expectant look.

She sat very close to Lu Mian, and on the other side of Lu Mian was Jenna.

Ludwig suddenly picked up that glass of "cocktail" and hid it behind his back.

He said very firmly:

"Only enough for two people to drink!"

"You and Anthony drink it," Lu Mian made the decision directly.

While Franca felt a little disappointed, Ludwig beamed with joy, took another cup, poured nearly half of the "cocktail" into it, and handed it to Anthony:

"This kind of mixed drink is called 'Color of Dreams'."

"It takes effect one minute after drinking."

After Anthony took the "Color of Dreams," Ludwig gulped down the part in his hand.

Franca said deliberately:

"Drinking strong liquor at such a young age, isn't it not very good? Need to be educated properly."

Her test paper was already prepared, just waiting for Anthony to finish his promotion to "test" Ludwig.

While Ludwig shivered inexplicably, Anthony adjusted his state and drank that glass of "Color of Dreams."

It was both bitter and sweet, both strong and soft, both igniting the esophagus, mouth, and stomach, and bringing a feeling that made people intoxicated.

This is a dream.

While waiting for the "Color of Dreams" to take effect, Anthony prepared the potion.

Franca took the opportunity to say to Lu Mian and Jenna:

"The leader of the Emperor Party is a man named Louis. He claims to have the bloodline of the Gustav family and is a descendant of Emperor Roselle.

"According to Niseia's intelligence, some core members of the Emperor Party feel that since that day, that is, after the vortex incident, Louis Gustav has become a bit strange, more mysterious and majestic.

"He is secretly planning something, and only a very small number of his confidants in the entire Emperor Party know what it is.

"Niseia has a strong desire to express herself and take revenge on society, and took the initiative to ask to contact a confidant of Louis Gustav. I plan to ask '007' to cooperate and create an opportunity for her..."

Louis is also a common name in Trier and Intis, just like Pierre, Guillaume, etc.

Lu Mian nodded slightly. Before he could say anything, Anthony had prepared the potion and drank the dark liquid dotted with grayish-white light.

The taste of "Dreamwalker" was very similar to "Color of Dreams," both complex and chaotic, containing a lot.

Lu Mian and the others didn't speak again, watching Anthony intently to guard against accidents.

They saw grayish-white scales appear on their teammate's face from time to time, and then become bloodless, as if the soul had left the body, and his eyes were hollow and lifeless, losing his self-consciousness.

After a while, Anthony's eyes first became dark, and then light shone.

"Success," Anthony said with rare outward emotion. "That feeling of looking down on the world, looking down on everyone's dreams, is really addictive. I almost didn't want to wake up."

After sighing, he restrained his emotions and briefly talked about the abilities brought by the "Dreamwalker" potion:

"I can intuitively see the appearance of the spiritual world, see the ocean of collective subconscious, and can 'guide' the target to speak out the secrets in their heart step by step through the changes in the dream...

"I can also use the 'modification' of the dream to influence the target bit by bit, making him do things he wouldn't have done originally. This is equivalent to a kind of 'hypnosis' that is softer, more hidden, and less likely to be detected by higher-level targets, but it requires a considerable amount of time to complete...

"I can now enter the dream directly, hide in the dream, and can jump from one dream to another, but the distance between the two dreams cannot exceed five hundred meters..."

"A kind of 'teleportation' whose use is limited by environment and distance," Lu Mian evaluated simply.

Anthony nodded:

"It's called 'Dream Shuttle.' For me, the consumption of spirituality is very small."

Lu Mian smiled, stood up, and said:

"Now, every member of our team is at Sequence 5 or above."

A few days later, Anthony went to work at the "Green Tree Clinic" as usual.

Near noon, the nurse brought in a patient.

It was Kevil, the young man who aspired to enter politics. Currently, he is serving in the National Convention as a staff member.

"Dr. Reid, I've been much better recently. I haven't had nightmares for a few days," Kevil said happily to Anthony.

He still trusted Anthony quite a bit; after all, this psychologist had indeed made his condition improve before.

"This is your own victory. You have already passed that stage," Anthony congratulated the other party without abnormality.

Kevil touched his golden sideburns and hesitated for a moment:

"My condition improved four days ago. That night, I had a nightmare again. In the dream, a girl descended under the illumination of a huge red moon and saved me.

"She, she is the most beautiful and temperamental girl I have ever seen, but my memory of that dream is becoming more and more blurred. Mr. Reid, can you find a way to let me remember her permanently and not forget her? Or, let me draw her? Perhaps, there is a girl as beautiful as her in reality..."

Anthony looked at Kevil and said after deliberation:

"I'm sorry, I cannot help you with this matter. Being addicted to dreams will lead you to another extreme. As your psychologist, I cannot push you into the abyss. I must tell you that it is an illusion you cannot touch."

Kevil was silent for a while and let out a breath with extreme disappointment:

"Okay."

Observatory District, Left Street.

Lu Mian, alone in the apartment, stood by the window, thinking about what to do recently:

"The treasure vault of the 'Blue Avenger'... but Mr. 'Hanged Man' only promised to let me explore it once...

"Go to Bansi Harbor to find the place where there might be a problem, use the corpse oil candle..."

Lu Mian had just thought of this when he instinctively turned his body half-way and saw Lady "Magician" appear accompanied by starlight.

This holder of the Major Arcana card said with a smile:

"Your reward should be available for collection today. I'll take you to a place."
