Chapter 3588: The Moon in the Dream and the Fiftieth Floor

Clearly, before leaving last time, when Xia De entered the dream and resonated with the holy emblem of the 【Winter Maiden】 beneath the "hill" in the black-haired girl's dream, he had already dispersed the wind and snow shrouding this "ice field." Yet, at this moment, the wind and snow were just as fierce as they had been before.

Xia De interpreted this as the other party's consciousness having briefly awakened, only to sink back into silence once more.

Thus, just as he had done last time, he took flight amidst the blizzard. First, he braved the wind to find those two relatively prominent hills again, and then, once more, he used 【Chloe's Ice Echo】 to resonate with the power of the holy emblem beneath the ice, until the golden light that shot into the sky dispersed the wind and snow once again.

At this moment, looking up, one could see the gray sky, which represented the gray void where this massive body resided.

Xia De still remembered the suggestion given by Doctor Shi Nai De, so he took off from the hill and flew as high as possible, until he could encompass the entire massive body within his field of vision from the void filled with gray mist.

The gray mist in the "void" of the dream was quite complex in composition; for a moment, Xia De couldn't even distinguish exactly what it contained. But besides the residual power of the demon, he clearly felt a power that was different in nature from the demon's power but equally twisted, only he did not know where that power came from.

"Light Spell—"

Raising his right hand high, Xia De shouted that word:

"Silver Moon!"

Brilliant silver moonlight erupted from his fingertips, gradually dispersing the gray mist, and slowly casting the moonlight onto the massive body below. Even in reality, outside the world of the dream, the three witches all saw Xia De's body glowing faintly.

The rising of the moonlight in the dream even caused the gray mist that had already infected the ice field to gradually dissipate, finally revealing all the details of this body suspended in the void.

And outside the void, some kind of power within the gray mist seemed to be stimulated by the silver moon and became active. The gray mist was entangled by that inexplicable power, eventually turning into a glowing gray mist mass, like a gray sun in the void.

The silver moonlight collided with that gray sun, both sides wanting to seize dominance over this dream. That gray sun had occupied this dream for too long; this was its home field. But the silver moonlight naturally restrained the power of that gray mist, so even though it was the opponent's home field, Xia De did not retreat in the slightest.

The battle between silver and gray caused the body suspended in the void to brighten and dim in turns, and although she kept her eyes tightly closed, she seemed to be observing this struggle in the void.

Finally, with the sound of a cat meowing coming from who knows where, the silver moonlight scattered that source-less gray mist, allowing the moonlight to completely illuminate the girl who was still keeping her eyes closed in the dream.

And with the defeat of the "gray sun," all the mist shrouding the void dissolved under the brilliant moonlight.

Perhaps because Xia De had invaded this dream, the void now presented a depth like the night sky, while he himself hung high above the sleeping girl's head like the silver moon, accompanying her as she slept peacefully.

It was just that when Xia De, glowing all over, looked at the girl who had curled her body into a ball at some unknown time, he was surprised to find that she still had not awakened:

"The power entangling her soul has already been dispersed by me; why hasn't she woken up yet?"

【Perhaps, you could try your "Sleeping Princess" Wonder.】

The function of this Wonder was to awaken girls who had fallen into a coma for various reasons through a kiss, and it could even store the power of the girls awakened in this way in the castle within the Wonder, to help Xia De at the appropriate time.

"But I don't have the Spirit to activate the Wonder right now."

【But isn't this a dream right now?】

"She" reminded him softly, so Xia De, who was overlooking the girl curled up in the night, hesitated for a moment:

"Alright then."

He walked out from that silver moon, letting the moonlight continue to illuminate everything in the night. The silver moon extended downward into a flight of white stone steps. As Xia De strolled along those steps, his body also grew larger and larger, but it seemed as if the girl's body was growing smaller and smaller before him.

Until he reached the girl at the end of the steps, the silver moon overhead shone on both of them at the same time. Xia De looked at that human face which was eighty percent similar to the maid Wen Ni, and after a moment of hesitation, he said softly:

"Please forgive my offense."

Amidst "her" increasingly gentle smile, he reached out and hugged the curled-up girl, then kissed her lips lightly:

"Wonder: Sleeping Princess."

No castle appeared, and no coffin emerged. Here, there was only the starry sky being lit up in the deep night, and only Xia De and her standing at the end of the pure white steps. The silver moon shone on them, shining on this increasingly magnificent dream.

Kissing a strange girl was also a very strange thing for Xia De, but it could not be denied that even the ice maid's lips were warm.

But soon he noticed his chest being squeezed by a heavy object. Surprised, he opened his eyes, only to find Little Mia standing on his chest with an unkind expression, her large amber eyes glaring at him.

"Hmm? Mia, why are you here... Oh, I forgot about you!"

Only then did Xia De remember that this cat had been brought along by him all the way to the decisive battle with the Star-Falling Beast, and he had obviously forgotten to turn it back when the team had lunch.

"This cat crawled out of your clothes and was meowing just now. Is this your cat? It's really beautiful, it's a pity it won't let me pet it."

Miss Luo Wa Lei stood to the side and said. Judging by her tone, she was very interested in this matter. It was just that Xia De was in a lying position now. He tried hard not to look at the scenery he shouldn't be looking at, grabbed Little Mia with one hand, and took Miss Ke En Si's hand with the other, then used the huntress's strength to sit up.

Now Xia De knew where the cat's meow in the dream had come from.

Casting spells in a dream did not require paying Spirit; that required Xia De's faith, mental power, and imagination. And at this moment, Xia De felt his head swelling, which meant he had indeed used a Wonder in the dream.

It was just that when he looked at the black-haired girl while holding Little Mia, she did not wake up with Xia De. Miss Ge Er De was still checking her condition. Just as Xia De was thinking about whether he should kiss her in reality as well, the girl's eyelashes trembled, and her eyes slowly opened.

In an instant, the cold wind blowing in the room almost extinguished the fireplace's flame. As the strange cold wind disappeared, the somewhat dazed girl sat up, looking at the four people illuminated by the firelight... and a cat. After a long time, she finally spoke:

"That cat is very hot."

Her tone of voice was exceptionally cold and devoid of emotion. This was somewhat different from Sister Dai Fu Lin's cold tone; the latter was a smoldering fire, while the former was solidified ice. The Wen Ni in reality would not speak like this.

For a while, Miss Luo Wa Lei thought this girl was speaking a language she couldn't understand because the content of her speech was inexplicable, but she soon realized that the other party also understood the language of the current era.

"Who are you? Where do you come from? What is your current state?"

The red-haired blood-kin asked three questions in a row, and the black-haired girl frowned and thought for a moment, her cold face still not revealing any expression.

The luster of blood and human skin faded from her at this moment, and instead, the crystal-clear ice-crystal material body that Xia De was familiar with appeared. Except for not wearing a maid's dress, she was no different from the maid Wen Ni.

She was also observing the four people and the cat, and the first answer she gave when she opened her mouth stunned the three witches and Xia De:

"I am... a guest in Room 5012 of this hotel. (Chapter 3506)"

"The 50th floor?"

"Are you also a guest?"

In everyone's imagination, she should have been possessed by a demon and implicated, which was why she was locked in the hotel together with them. No one had ever thought that she was also a "guest"—that is, a prisoner—of this hotel, and she had actually been imprisoned on the 50th floor.

One must know that everyone's last task only involved the problems on the 40th floor.

"Yes, I used to live on the 50th floor."

Although her tone was still cold, her words gradually became coherent, as if she were gradually mastering the ability to use this language. Her ice-blue transparent eyes scanned everyone here, but finally fell on Xia De:

"I abandoned many things and escaped from Room 5012, and then I met that demon on this floor. I don't remember the things from before, I don't remember what I have done, I only remember... I escaped from Room 5012."

Miss Luo Wa Lei immediately looked at Xia De. She remembered that Xia De could see the room numbers above the heads of the "guests" here; this was the convenience given to Xia De by the god on the first floor.

But whether it was before or after this natural spirit born from ice and snow awakened, Xia De had never seen any numbers above her head.

He looked at those emotionless ice-blue eyes, and the ice-blue eyes also looked at him. Xia De believed that the other party probably really didn't remember the things from the past, but he also believed that the other party definitely remembered that it was he who rescued her from the demon's hands, and she obviously still remembered the dream just now.

The three witches were all waiting for Xia De to make "arrangements" for this girl who had just awakened. Finally, Xia De took the initiative to say to her:

"Since you have forgotten many things, then if you are willing, I can accompany you to Room 5012 to find your memories back. If you don't want to understand the things from the past, when we leave here, you can come with us."

The witches all looked at him with some astonishment. What he should be saying now was obviously not this; they completely couldn't understand his absolute trust.

The girl with the crystal-clear body nodded gently:

"I want to know what happened in Room 5012."

After a slight pause:

"Also, thank you, the moonlight is beautiful and very gentle."

She raised her hand to touch her own lips, and at this moment, some kind of emotion finally flickered in her eyes. Although it was hard to detect, it did exist.
