Chapter 106: Fire and the Frozen Person

~8 min read 1,450 words

"This is the so-called radiance of divinity? Why does it appear now?"

【Divinity is deeply hidden in your Ring of Fate and soul. Only in certain special locations, or in environments where soul power is prominent, will you manifest this posture. So, now...】

Xia De looked up at Miss Louisa, who had stopped and looked back in front:

"I see. Now, sure enough, it's in a dream."

"Oh, Xia De, what's wrong with you?"

Miss Louisa asked in surprise. She looked him up and down.

Xia De noticed that the blonde writer who had put on light makeup was particularly beautiful today. Probably because it was a bit hot, the three golden buttons on the chest of her white shirt with lace cuffs were unbuttoned at some point, and he could see the clothes faintly visible inside.

【You felt...】

"No need to remind me. If I still don't understand this, I'm a bit too stupid. This kind of plot is a bit vulgar and a bit routine... Moreover, Miss Louisa never calls me by my name directly."

"Xia De, why aren't you talking? You found traces of that thing, right?"

"Miss Louisa" asked in a soft voice.

She walked quickly toward Xia De, but for some reason, she suddenly fell forward, looking like she was about to fall into Xia De's arms.

But Xia De did not reach out to catch her, but threw an arc of silver moonlight forward. The brilliant light illuminated the third-floor corridor that had become dim at some point and passed through "Miss Louisa's" body.

The blonde girl scattered into a cloud of black smoke in this light and disappeared into the air.

Xia De did not relax his vigilance because of this, but stood alertly in place. The light around him suddenly dimmed, as if the corridor itself was absorbing the light.

And in this environment, the golden radiance on Xia De's body appeared even brighter.

Gradually, whispering sounds came from all around. But it was not the whisper of the woman in his heart; it was this dream that began to whisper. That chaotic and low sound seemed to be poured directly into Xia De's head. At the same time, some crawling figures gradually manifested in the shadows produced by the dim light.

Those things that seemed like silt produced from the dream, once they appeared, the mental pollution ability almost directly affected Xia De himself. The intense dizziness made him want to faint, but after two "exercises" of directly facing gods, he could still endure the feeling now.

Thus, silver moonlight lit up in the corridor. Arc-shaped light blades flew out from his hands. Although this light could not illuminate the increasingly cold corridor, it could effectively split those terrible things in the shadows.

With one after another silver moonlight flying out, the shadows in the dream aggregated into wriggling sludge, and slender tentacles clung to the side walls of the corridor, almost about to swallow this space.

Xia De knew that the current situation was a bit bad, so he summoned the Ring of Fate behind him, took a deep breath, reached out and pointed forward. While using the secret art with all his strength, the silver of the moonlight seemed to have more of the golden light marks on his body.

The arc-shaped moonlight slash crossed the corridor, splitting the terrible thing that violated the basic aesthetics of humanity. It did not aggregate again. Instead, with the sound of soap bubbles bursting in his ears, Xia De shook his head and found that he was standing on the third-floor corridor again.

But the light was normal, and there were no monsters, only Miss Louisa was gone.

He looked down at the golden cracks on his body:

"It seems it's still a dream. Can you find out which direction has Whisper elements?"

【All directions.】

Xia De nodded and looked around. As he realized that this was still a dream, the light became darker and darker.

He tried to exit the third floor, but the boundary line between the third floor and the stairs could not be approached no matter what, as if this corridor itself was extending infinitely.

Just when Xia De wanted to try to destroy the building itself that constituted the dream, the door on the right side near the stairs was suddenly opened from the inside, and then Miss Louisa rushed out aggressively.

She looked furious, her face flushed red. Before Xia De could test whether this time was true or false, the blonde girl raised her hand at him, and a cluster of eerie red flames appeared in her palm:

"Ha, this set again. Instead of becoming a detective, you might as well become Luweiya or Lei... Hmm?"

She looked at Xia De suspiciously, then neatly retracted her palm and crushed the flame in her palm:

"This time it's real? Detective, you actually understood it was a dream before I found you? That's really not bad. It seems I still underestimated you. But what are these golden cracks on your body? They look quite beautiful. Are you okay?"

Xia De stepped back carefully, asking in his heart, confirming that although the girl in front of him had Whispers, she also had abundant four elements, only then did he relax:

"Seeing you is really great, Miss Louisa. As for this... decoration, it's useless."

He pointed to himself. Miss Louisa raised her eyebrows. The knowledge of the writer lady was not enough for her to identify what this was:

"That's good. I'll pretend I didn't see it, as long as you're okay. Since you understand this is a dream, then I don't have to explain the current situation so troublesomely. Really, I originally wanted to take you to gain experience and promised there would be no accidents, but unexpectedly, such a thing still happened. This time I've lost face."

She said with slight annoyance, and then pointed forward:

"Let's leave the dream and return to reality first. Although the time the Relic lost control is not long and the nightmare is not strong enough, we cannot compete with it in the dream; this is too stupid."

"Then how to leave?"

Xia De looked around, expecting Miss Louisa to be able to conjure something like an entrance out of thin air.

"The nightmare born from 【Joyful Dream Pen】 currently only absorbed the mental power and blood of an ordinary person, and it only absorbed a part, so the capacity of the dream it can construct is limited. Let me blow it up!"

Saying this, the brass Ring of Fate of the 4th-Ring Ringed Ringed Shushi appeared in the emerging steam fog, and the spiritual light of the various spirit runes on the Ring of Fate flashed, illuminating this increasingly dim corridor:

"Detective, hold my hand tightly, and don't get lost in the dream. It just so happens that this is an opportunity, and I will also let you see the fighting method of a Ring Ringed Ringed Shushi proficient in the 【Enlightenment】 element."

She reached out to Xia De, and Xia De held it directly.

Miss Louisa's core spirit rune 【Writer】 flashed, and then the Enlightenment spirit rune 【Fire】 also flashed:

"Detective, my Ring Ringed Ringed Shushi system uses the ancient fairy tale 'Match Girl' to connect the first four rings. Each ring has a rune related to this fairy tale, to construct the Sublimation Language when advancing from the 4th Ring to the 5th Ring. First, it's like this..."

Her empty left hand stroked the air, and a fire-red rune like an earthworm seemed to be branded in the air. Afterwards, the entire corridor burned, but Xia De did not feel the heat.

In the suddenly fierce flames, he seemed to hear the sound of bubbles bursting. Afterwards, the firelight suddenly disappeared, and they stood in the corridor on the third floor of Professor Manning's house. Here the light was normal, and there were no flames.

The 4th-Ring Ringed Ringed Shushi is really powerful. Xia De breaking the dream just now relied on the slight power of divine radiance, while Miss Louisa's simple secret art could do the same thing.

"Still a dream."

Xia De looked at his surroundings and looked at himself again.

"The traces on your body are quite convenient. The doctor's ability to enter dreams is probably most afraid of people like you... That's good, then do it again."

Saying this, Miss Louisa's core spirit rune 【Writer】 and the spirit rune 【Frozen Person】 flashed with spiritual light. The ice-blue rune was engraved in the space, and the extremely cold airflow instantly swept through the entire corridor until the dream was broken again. ===== CHAPTER 107 =====
