29. Emerald Dream

The reality is different from Lu Li's imagination.

He thought the Emerald Dream took advantage when he let go of Katarina to avoid the attack.

But it was actually a falsehood from the beginning.

So in the "dream", Catalina asked Lu Li to lift the wooden box - if he did that, in reality, he would move the wooden box that was holding down his lower body, and then be bewitched, or walk into eternal night, or be close to danger.

So where is Catalina?

Lu Li looked around at the silent convoy blown by the breeze. There were no more screams. Apart from the sound of wind and burning, there were only creepy gnawing sounds coming from the surroundings of the convoy and the caravan.

Numa is eating, or something is eating Numa.

Lu Li lowered his head to look at the goods that were weighing down his body, and wanted to move them away, but stopped.

How can I be sure that this is not the third level of the Emerald Dream?

If you remove them, the same thing will happen in reality. As long as the Emerald Dream obscures his sense of direction, it can easily lead him into eternal night.

But there is no other choice. As time goes by, the convoy will become more and more dangerous...

Diners are flocking to the table.

As if in response to Lu Li's speculation, the fluorite not far away was blocked, and a silhouette approached quietly.

Lu Li stayed quiet and slowed down his breathing.

There is no light source around, and the only way to distinguish the approaching silhouette is through fluorite and distant firelight. Squatting down one meter away, you can almost smell the moss-like moist smell of its body.

Rustling——

There were sounds of tearing and chewing, and a crouching silhouette was eating a corpse.

It ignored Lu Li who was very close at hand.

Why are there corpses around?

Lu Li heard the sound of the attack he encountered in the second level of the Emerald Dream - a short knife was stabbed, he avoided grabbing the opponent's wrist, the struggle weakened, the opponent fell to the ground, he took the short knife and stabbed it in the chest...

They form a terrifying reality.

Wow——

The cargo that was holding his lower body suddenly collapsed at this moment, and a small piece of cargo slipped. They did not hit Lu Li, but the noise they made caused big trouble.

Lu Li was prepared, but nothing happened. There were bursts of biting sounds, and the silhouette seemed to have no hearing and was still eating.

Lu Li picked up a stone and threw it towards the other side of the body.

The sound of eating continued without stopping due to the noise.

This is good news. There is a high probability that it did not find Lu Li and was not planning to eat Lu Li after eating the corpse.

But danger is still surging around. The longer you stay, the more weird things you are attracted to.

Gotta get out of here.

Thinking of the "Dust Cloth" in the second level of the Emerald Dream, Lu Li hoped that the "Emerald Dream" was like the "Gate", with truth mixed in with the false.

Lu Li started to move the wooden box that was weighing down his body, while listening to see if the sound of eating stopped.

Wow——

After removing the cargo that was pressing down on his thigh, Lu Li pulled out his calf. The collapse sound became louder, but it did not disturb the outline.

Calmness became Lu Li's weapon. He quietly bypassed the silhouette and picked up the fluorite that fell on the ground.

When his fingers were about to touch the fluorite, Lu Li saw the corner of a dirty and worn-out kettle at the edge of the dim light, very close to the body and its outline.

That's what Catalina carries with her.

After a pause, Lu Li picked up the fluorite and put it in his pocket, then turned and walked towards the leader's carriage.

The sound of eating behind me is getting farther and farther away.

Following the dark edge to avoid the caravan, Lu Li followed the convoy smoothly and arrived at the leader's carriage.

The carriage door is open, just like the Emerald Dream. But the interior of the carriage is not luxurious, and there is no pile of cargo. It is just an ordinary carriage covered with blankets.

Lu Li got into the carriage and found the box in the corner of the carriage by the light of the oil lamp.

Lu Li opened the treasure box and found the folded cloth lying quietly at the bottom of the box.

The moment he touched it, an indescribable feeling of insignificance surged deep into his heart. Lu Li was surrounded by feelings of inferiority and not being valued, and was blocked by a wall of reason.

Lu Li took out the dust-falling cloth, which looked like a tarpaulin. As Lu Li put it on his body like a robe, his negative emotions suddenly increased, but Lu Li's aura also disappeared.

It does work.

At this moment, the carriage suddenly shook slightly, and something entered the carriage.

But under the light of the oil lamp, Lu Li saw nothing.

The dust-falling cloth on his body blocked all Lu Li's external perception.

Lu Li kept quiet, pressed against the carriage wall to avoid the invisible presence, and left the carriage.

Gazing at the convoy stranded in the wilderness, shrouded in silence, Lu Li walked into the wilderness and eternal night wearing a dust-falling cloth and holding fluorite in his hand.

Lu Li continued to move in the direction of the motorcade. It wasn't too far from Ghost Town, maybe less than 20 miles.

The dust sheet covered Lu Li's aura, allowing him to pass by unspeakable existences or weird things in the wilderness several times. It was three hours after he arrived at the safe zone of Ghost Town, and the torch lit in Ghost Town guided the rest of the journey.

the way.

What are the rules of Ghost Town?

Before entering the town, Lu Li thought about it and changed the dust-falling cloth to be draped around his body instead of covering his whole body.

Strange towns are sometimes no safer than the wilderness.

However, the crowd gathered at the entrance dispelled Lu Li's thoughts. They spotted Lu Li and watched him approach with exclaims.

"Dust-falling cloth? Are you from the convoy?" A middle-aged man, who was as short and fat as a potato, wearing a dress tailored from expensive fabrics and a white wig, squeezed past the guards and asked anxiously: "What happened?"

"I am a passenger, and the Emerald Dream attacked the convoy." Lu Li replied calmly.

The crowd burst into exclamations of surprise.

There are few people who don’t know about the Emerald Dream——

Butler Lips had no time to pay attention to the Emerald Dream. He only cared about one thing: "That cargo..."

"If Weird is not interested in the goods, they should still be in the wilderness." Lu Li said.

Lu Li's words caused some hunters wearing leather armor to leave quietly in the crowd.

"I knew it... I knew it... Damn it, I knew it!" Butler Lips muttered a curse, then suddenly raised his head and said, "The problem is huge... Sir, please follow me to see the master.

"

"My lord count?"

"Yes, come quickly -"

Butler Lips took Lu Li into the carriage and drove all the way to a manor.

After bypassing the garden with tombstones, the carriage stopped in front of the mansion. Butler Lips jumped out of the car in a hurry, even falling, and rushed into the mansion.

Lu Li followed him and got out of the carriage and walked into the mansion.

He saw "My Lord the Earl," a thin soul dressed in old aristocratic clothing and with an unreal figure sitting on the sofa in front of the fireplace, with Butler Lips standing respectfully behind him.

"Guest, please take a seat." He spoke the aristocratic pronunciation and gestured for Lu Li to sit across from him. Waiting for Lu Li to sit down, he asked: "You said you encountered the Emerald Dream?"

"Um."

A maid in a bridal gown was carrying coffee towards Lu Li, but she suddenly stepped on her dress and fell, and the liquid in the cup spilled on Lu Li. It felt cold to the touch and had no warmth.

Lu Li woke up suddenly.

The coat was wet and cold, clinging to my body, and the sound of rushing water echoed in the small space.

The splashing water was the culprit that woke up Lu Li.

Familiar underground rock formations.

Maybe Lu Li had never left the underground rock formations.

Everything is just a dream when you are in a coma, what is here is reality.

No Friday, no fire, no lighthouse, no food...

No Exit.
