It was a human being who seemed to be embedded in the body of an owl. His eyes were purely round, and his pupils were brown and yellow, and they were filled with undisguised evil.
Anyone who looks into these eyes will inevitably experience confusion in thinking, emotional tension and spiritual fear.
The evil creature that was half owl and half human flapped its wings and rushed towards Janna and Franka on the bed with a fishy smell.
Its mouth opened and spit out almost substantial sound waves.
The sound wave touched the two "witches", penetrated through, hit the sheets, and dispersed in all directions.
There was no one on the bed. The screen of the air conditioner panel, the glass panel on the bedside table, the dark glass inlaid on the wardrobe sliding door and other items silently shone with a dark light.
Behind the half-human, half-owl evil thing, Franka's figure jumped up, holding the almost invisible "cold blade", and stabbed the target at the speed of the wind.
The transparent three-edged thorn accurately penetrated the evil object's body, making it stiff instantly, as if it had been frozen.
At the door of the bedroom, Jenna's figure appeared, holding a mirror in her hand, which reflected the enemy whose movements were stuck.
Her other hand ignited a quiet black flame and quickly touched the surface of the mirror.
The half-human, half-owl evil thing ignited evil black flames from the inside out, but due to the influence of the "cold blade", it could not even wail or scream.
Soon, the evil thing burned out and turned into ashes.
"A spiritual creature..." Franka knew that the witch's "black flame" mainly targeted spirituality and life, and was difficult to ignite entities.
She fell from the air lightly, as weightless as a feather.
Jian Na spoke quickly and whispered:
"This is Morna, the monster in Rosanne's painting, and the invader that Rosanne is fighting."
"Rosanne's radical test?" Franka said without hesitation, "Go to Roxanne's room now and try to control her as soon as possible, otherwise we may be kicked out of the dream."
Jian Na obviously also thought about this development. She nodded and said:
"You go to Roxanne's room, and I'll go to the space similar to the spirit world. If necessary, I will replace Roxanne and guard the barrier to prevent those intruders from entering."
First, she felt that Luo Shan might not be in the room, but might still be at the translucent barrier. Second, she was worried that without Luo Shan's protection, the intruders would break through the defense line and cause a tragedy.
Franka didn't hesitate. She nodded lightly, got to the other side of the curtain, opened the window of the master bedroom, and jumped directly to the 15th floor.
She didn't use the "Amulet of Ice" and went through the mirror world because she felt that Jenna's last investigation was noticed by Roxanne, but she didn't know who the investigator was, so some traps might be set up in the future.
Franka's body was as light as a feather, but she was not pushed away from its original trajectory by the wind. She accurately landed on the window sill of Roxanne's bedroom, and pried open the window by letting the frost seep in and form flakes.
Franka didn't hurry to dig in. Using the light of dawn, she quickly examined the situation in the room.
There was no one on the bed, and there were paintings hanging everywhere, with paintings of different contents.
"Hiding?" Franka took out a mirror from the "traveler's bag".
She will divine the degree of danger and use the internal and external mirrors to create a phantom of herself to see if she can trick Roxanne into taking the initiative.
In the spirit-like space shrouded by the solidified storm, as soon as Jenna's astral body emerged, she immediately looked at the translucent barrier adjacent to the deep darkness.
Roxanne wasn't there.
Weird creatures such as Mornar are attacking the barrier, gradually thinning it and causing the solidified storm to tend to decompose.
Jian Na looked around, looked up and down, but still couldn't find Roxanne.
She sighed secretly, floated to the area where the monsters were fiercely attacking, and condensed dangerous evil black flames and crystal icicles around her, letting them fly outside, defeating many intruders.
.
After Jenna held on for a quarter of an hour, the monsters retreated into the depths of darkness, and the attack was completely repelled.
After a while, the sun shone into this area, and all the solidified storms, floating spirits, and illusory buildings faded and disappeared.
Janna's astral body also returned to her own body.
It's dawn.
Franka had come back and said to Janna with a solemn expression:
"Rosanne was not found. She hid or left in advance."
"Could it be hidden in a certain painting?" Jenna quickly suggested the possibility.
Franka shook her head:
"I checked all the paintings and found no more figures in any of them. On the contrary, the self-portrait sketch you mentioned was missing.
"Well, there is a painting of a bridge that extends from the edge of the cliff near the picture, across a dark abyss with an invisible bottom, to another cliff in the distance of the picture, where there is a black forest.
"I suspect that Roxanne entered the painting and escaped through the bridge into the black forest. I couldn't chase her. Moreover, I have a strong premonition of danger. The painting probably was not painted by Roxanne herself."
Jian Na was about to say something when she suddenly realized something:
"We haven't been kicked out of Dreamland yet!"
"There are no restrictions." Franka has been paying attention to this aspect.
She said thoughtfully:
"Roshan was contaminated by the evil god of the 'Fantasy Society', not controlled by Tianzun. The evil god of the 'Fantasy Society' may help Tianzun do some things, but he must have his own ideas and calculations, and not everything will be done.
Help Tianzun.
"He hopes that we will continue to stay in the dream and hold back Tianzun if necessary, so he concealed this matter?"
"This is what Lumian said. Sometimes the positions of the evil gods and the Heavenly Lord are consistent, and sometimes they are inconsistent." Jian Na nodded in agreement, and then added, "It may also be that Roshan has not been completely contaminated, and has not been completely
Fallen and chose to deal with our problems on our own without informing the evil god."
"Struggling and confronting..." Franka sighed and then said, "Let's wait a little longer and take a look."
After waiting for more than an hour, the two "witches" saw Luo Shan, who had changed into the standard clothes of employees of the Intis Group's administrative department, leaving Building 5 and going to work normally. What happened last night seemed to be just a dream.
But Franka and Janna have still not been kicked out of the dreamland, nor have they been subject to any restrictions.
"She must have hid in the painting with the bridge." Franka retracted her gaze, nodded slightly and said, "Well, I'll send a message to Lumian to let him know what happened last night and what happened to us recently.
The risk of kicking out of dreams.”
"Will that cause him to be kicked out as well?" Jenna was worried that contacting Lumian now would leave hidden dangers.
Franka laughed softly:
“Isn’t there that little program that Stiano gave me? ‘Information Crush Box’.
"I was thinking that WeChat messages are also messages and should be able to be crushed without leaving any traces. Well, I crush sent messages here, and Lumian crushes received messages.
"Although I'm not sure that the 'information crushing box' will be able to hide from Tianzun's unconscious pursuit, I think it is necessary to give it a try. If it can really achieve the effect we want, we will have more room to move on certain things in the future.
There’s room.”
Jian Na pondered for a moment and said:
"good."
Franka immediately edited the WeChat message, detailing Roshan's temptation, her and Jenna's response, and subsequent developments, and finally reminded Lumian to use the "message crushing box" to delete the chat history.
…………
The entrance of Science and Technology Building.
Lumian, who had come to report, stood in the hall and read the message from Franka as if nothing had happened.
Then, he turned to the public restroom on the first floor, entered the men's side, found a cubicle, and used the "bottle of fiction."
Then, he put the phone to his mouth and whispered:
"You can do some more testing. Franka should also try to go to work early and contact Zhou Mingrui.
"We can't place all our hopes on Roxanne's struggle or the selfishness of the person in the 'Fantasy Society'. Maybe after a long time or a day, they will change their minds. You have to do more testing before that, and prepare for the third meeting."
Second, enter the dreamland for the third time to accumulate information."
After sending the message, Lumian waited for more than ten seconds before calling up the "Message Crush Box" applet, selected the chat history between himself, Franka and Jenna, and clicked delete.
After doing this, he terminated the "Bottle of Imagination" and took the elevator to the Intis Group's security department on the thirteenth floor.
After completing the formalities, he was introduced to the office of the head of the security department.
This office is very large, equivalent to a private gym, with a space for boxing practice.
The head of the security department is a foreigner, with black hair and blue eyes, medium height, and seemingly underdeveloped muscles, but very powerful.
His name is Green. According to the Major Arcana cards, he was one of the most trusted Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse who once followed Emperor Russell. He died very early and did not see Emperor Russell achieve great deeds. Now this
It's his dream image.
"Have you ever practiced kung fu?" Green asked in a bad local accent.
"Yes." Lumian nodded sincerely.
"Then let's have a fight." Green said, pointing to the boxing ring on the other side of the office.
Lumian, who had not yet changed into his security uniform, did not refuse and took the initiative to walk into the venue, waiting for Green to come over.
Green took off his light formal clothes, rolled up his sleeves, and came to Lumian.
Suddenly, he punched out and the wind howled.
Lumian seemed careless, but as if he had expected it, he took a step back and dodged the punch.
With a flick of his back, he quickly bullied Green, using his elbows, fists, knees, toes, etc. in a series, launching a violent storm of attacks.
Green held the boxing stance and defended very firmly, preventing Lumian from breaking through his defense and hitting him with his quick but insufficiently powerful attacks.
Bang bang bang! After a few dozen seconds of furious attack, Lumian suddenly backed away, gasping for breath, and raised his hands to admit defeat:
"I have no energy left."
Of course he couldn't beat down the boss of his department on his first day at work. This wasn't a matter of workplace etiquette. What he was worried about was that it would expose him as an extraordinary person based on his fighting prowess.
"Not bad." Green nodded.
He walked straight to his desk.
When he passed by Lumian, he suddenly lowered his voice and said as if he didn't want to be heard by other people waiting in the office:
