Chapter 903
Lady "Magician" saw Lu Mian get the last lucky gold coin and breathed a sigh of relief silently.
Although the Major Arcana cards had roughly confirmed that there would be such a development through prophecy, divination, psychological analysis, etc., after all, the object involved was an ancient angel, a god's son, and no one dared to conclude that the result would inevitably be presented in the expected direction. If there was a deviation, they would have to formulate a new plan.
Lady "Magician" took out a small golden bottle engraved with mysterious symbols from nowhere and said to Azik Eggers with a smile:
"Mr. Azik, this is the excess 'Samaritan Spring' water, which is a thing produced by the pollution of the power at the source of the River of Death. It has the effects of repairing the soul, making people sleep, bringing complete death or real dreams, and giving clarity in dreams. We want to ask you for help to make it present only one of the two traits of 'making people sleep' or 'giving clarity in dreams' and strengthen it."
Repairing the soul... Lu Mian didn't care that there was still leftover "Samaritan Spring" water he had taken before, and his attention was all on the effect of "repairing the soul."
Can this make Aurora's soul fragments gradually become complete?
"No problem," Azik took the small golden bottle containing the "Samaritan Spring" water.
Lady "Magician" seemed to have noticed Lu Mian's thoughts and explained to him casually:
"The 'Samaritan Spring' water does have the effect of repairing the soul, but it is limited to repairing. Just like 'limb regeneration' type abilities can make lost arms, legs, etc., grow back, but cannot make arms and legs grow a new person. That is in the field of the 'Great Mother'."
She had already answered the question of what the fake "Black Witch" was before, believing that neither she nor the one with the most accurate divination results knew the exact answer, and this implied that the corresponding secret must involve the special mirror world.
"It's not bad to have a certain repair effect," Lu Mian was silent for a moment and said in a low voice.
At this time, a blurry, upright, terrifying giant snake that was about to touch the illusory sky appeared behind Azik.
Pale flames burned in the giant snake's eye sockets, and it seemed to have a pair of thick and exaggerated wings behind it. Its body was covered with large, dark green and black scales, and white-looking feathers grew out of the gaps between the scales.
Although Lu Mian couldn't see the appearance of every feather and every scale and the strange symbols carried on them, just looking directly at this phantom gave him the feeling that he was dying rapidly and his skin was withering and shriveling.
This is damage that "Mirror Substitute" cannot transfer.
Fortunately, the illusory winged giant snake curled up rapidly, wrapping the small golden bottle that couldn't even fill its eye sockets layer by layer inside.
Immediately after, the terrifying giant snake faded rapidly and shrank into the small golden bottle in an instant.
Lu Mian gradually returned to normal.
Azik handed the small golden bottle back to "Magician":
"People who touch the spring water in the bottle will fall into a long sleep, and even I will be no exception.
"It will have a little effect on a true god, but it won't be too big, unless that god is very weak or is in a sleeping state.
"If you want the person who fell asleep because of this to wake up, you need to take some 'Samaritan Spring' water again and do the opposite treatment in a similar way, or find a true god with corresponding authority to help."
Lu Mian was not surprised that the treated "Samaritan Spring" water could only have a weak effect on a true god.
The remnant soul of the "Blood Emperor" could wake up from time to time in the mysterious river that was the source of the "Samaritan Spring" and stir up trouble, let alone this secondary derivative!
Lady "Magician" handed the small golden bottle to Lu Mian:
"This might be useful in a dream, but it's not certain."
Lu Mian nodded slightly and put this bottle of treated "Samaritan Spring" water into his "Traveler's Bag."
Lady "Magician" turned to salute Azik:
"Thank you for your help. We have achieved all our goals today.
"Is there anything you need us to do?"
Azik cast his gaze on the oil paintings on both sides of the corridor, his expression a bit dazed, and said:
"Not for now.
"I have slept for several years and want to walk around, take a look, and see the changes in this world."
Lady "Magician" didn't talk nonsense and took Lu Mian to say goodbye and leave.
Before being covered by starlight, Lu Mian turned his head and took a look, finding that the former "Death Governor" with a strong sense of vicissitudes in his eyes was standing quietly in front of an oil painting, silently stroking the surface of the painting with his fingers.
At dusk.
Except for Lugano being told that he would have a period of vacation and could arrange it freely, Lu Mian, Franca, Jenna, Anthony, and Ludwig all gathered in the apartment on Left Street in the Observatory District.
Lady "Magician" was wearing an off-white stand-up collar dress with golden embroidery and a wide-brimmed hat used for sun protection, standing by the window, and said to the five holders of the lucky gold coin:
"I must emphasize the potential risks again.
"In Mr. 'Fool''s dream, if you die, reality will also die. If you lose control or go crazy, reality will also lose control or go crazy. If you are directly polluted by that Xuanhuang Tianzun or any other existence, reality will also suffer pollution. If you develop psychological diseases or strong emotional fluctuations, the body in a sleeping state in reality will also suffer corresponding problems.
"Simply being injured or tired has little impact on reality and can be recovered quickly by leaving the dream and waking up briefly, or by spending time healing in the dream.
"In that dream, you can use all your abilities, but the effect will be limited to the Sequence 7 level. The essence of this limitation is that Mr. 'Fool''s self-cognition has not yet recovered. That is to say, if Mr. 'Fool' in the dream realizes that extraordinary abilities can reach the effect corresponding to the Sequence 6 level, your level will recover to this sequence.
"Similarly, except for special items like 'Samaritan Spring' water, other equipment you have in the dream is essentially evolved from your consciousness and is also limited.
"The good news is that those hostile people and Beyonders driven by Xuanhuang Tianzun who enter Mr. 'Fool''s dream through other methods will also be subject to similar limitations, but that Xuanhuang Tianzun can manage the dream to a certain extent and in certain aspects. Before the last moment, you had better avoid Xuanhuang Tianzun and not have any contact with Him."
Hearing this, Lu Mian raised a question:
"In Mr. 'Fool''s dream, what identity and image does Xuanhuang Tianzun exist in?"
If this point is clarified, one can effectively bypass that Xuanhuang Tianzun.
Lady "Magician" shook her head:
"If we knew, the previous lucky gold coin holders wouldn't have been kicked out of the dream or subject to action restrictions so quickly.
"Confirming Xuanhuang Tianzun's identity in the dream is a key point of your mission this time."
Lady "Magician" also talked about other matters related to the dream, and finally asked seriously:
"Now, you can make your own choices. Are you willing to hold Mr. 'Fool''s gold coin and enter his real dream to try to wake him up?
"If you are not willing, we will not force you, but you must follow the guidance of your spirituality and send out the lucky gold coin in your hand as soon as possible.
"If you are willing, after the matter is over, regardless of whether Mr. 'Fool' is successfully awakened, we will give you generous rewards."
"I have no problem," Lu Mian, wearing a cloak but no hood, was the first to answer.
"Me too," Jenna was the second.
Followed by Franca and Anthony, they were also willing.
The only one hesitating was Ludwig. The little boy wearing a red bow tie had his expression change several times, not knowing what he was resisting.
In the end, he looked at Franca and Jenna and said through gritted teeth:
"I am willing to go to the dream."
Although the food eaten in the dream is fake and illusory, at least there is no need to study and take exams!
Franca, who had already digested the "Pain" potion, glanced at Ludwig amusedly and leaned into Jenna's ear, saying:
"This child is really not smart enough. As soon as I heard Lady 'Magician''s descriptions just now, I clearly reached a conclusion:
"If you digest the potion in Mr. 'Fool''s dream, reality will too!"
Jenna responded in a low voice:
"Wait until we enter Mr. 'Fool''s dream to tell Ludwig this fact."
At this time, Lady "Magician" nodded slightly:
"I am very happy that you made such a choice. One last reminder: try to delay the time of being kicked out of the dream. Once you are kicked out of the dream more than three times, entering again later will either result in being kicked out immediately, or you will be completely restricted and can only be an audience."
"Yes, Lady 'Magician'," Lu Mian and the others stood up one after another.
Bits of brilliant starlight fell, covering them inside.
In the blink of an eye, the five appeared in a luxury villa.
"This is also in Trier. You choose your own rooms. You cannot be close to each other, to prevent one person from being discovered and implicating others nearby," Lady "Magician" introduced simply.
"Okay." After making the decision, Franca was no longer hesitant and couldn't wait to try it.
After Lu Mian and the others confirmed their rooms, Lady "Magician" said to them as they returned to the corridor:
"Now go to bed holding your lucky gold coin."
"That's it?" Franca asked suspiciously.
This is too simple, right?
Lady "Magician" laughed:
"No, this is just the first step. Later, Lady 'Justice' still needs to take action."
"Um." Lu Mian and the others didn't ask any more questions, returned to the rooms they chose, held the shiny lucky gold coin, lay on the firm and elastic bed, and covered themselves with the soft quilt that emitted the smell of sunshine.
