On the moonlight grassland that has turned into static time and space, the gray-white moonlight falls down, illuminating this piece of broken land that is only a few hundred meters in radius. The boundless darkness is stagnant around it, making this small piece of land seem to be floating in the darkness and chaos.
The only island in the sea, Vivian, who had just fully woken up, hugged her knees and sat directly on the grass with a calm expression on her face.
"I had a long, long dream," she said. "I dreamed that I became super, super, super rich, and lived in a very huge castle. The castle was decorated magnificently.
There are many treasure rooms filled with gold and silver jewelry that I can never use up. I also have two very beautiful large gardens. The art sculptures in the gardens can fill the Louvre several times...
well."
Lily rolled her eyes: "Yes, that's right, you were indeed dreaming."
Vivian sighed again: "So, the world outside is in chaos?"
In the conversation just now, she had heard what happened "again" from Hao Ren, and she also knew about Hao Ren's efforts to save the situation. She also knew that Hao Ren had actually successfully "awakened" herself.
Unfortunately, the Vivian who woke up in the Siberian snowfields has followed the time and space line into the deepest part of this distorted time and space, and she who wakes up at this point in time has no memory of that time.
"Chaos is not enough to describe it," Hao Ren shrugged, "I don't know how long the entire sandbox system can be supported, but I must get you back from all periods in history as soon as possible, and so far,
I only went back a mere six hundred years...compared to the entire ten thousand years of history, this is just an insignificant first step."
"I believe you can go on." Vivian just smiled at Hao Ren and nodded firmly.
There was no overly polite thanks, no unnecessary encouragement, and no other entangled emotions. Vivian just firmly believed that Hao Ren could accomplish this feat, and then she said it so naturally.
Then she looked at Lily again: "Big Dog, I never thought you would go out of your way to help me."
"Hey, I'm so stuffed that I can't help but digest it in your messy memory time and space." The husky girl turned her head away and swung her tail back and forth. "Otherwise, the old man is no longer useful as he gets older.
Look at you, even in your own dreams, you almost got yourself involved, and I had to come in to rescue you, so brave and powerful. After you get out, you owe me a big favor. Let me tell you, you will do this favor to me for the rest of your life.
Even the braised pork ribs may not be returned..."
"Okay, okay, braised pork ribs, I'll let you eat until you vomit," Vivian laughed, then stood up lightly and came to Hesiana, who was still in a gray "frozen" state, her eyes were on the sea
Seanna and Hasselblad not far away glanced at each other, and finally glanced at Baptiste, who kept his expression for the last moment, "The little girl and Hasselblad from six hundred years ago, I really miss it. If you are right,
If so, after I officially 'return', the two of them can 'enter' through that loophole?"
"Strictly speaking, it's the projection of consciousness into their historical bodies. It's not a complete admission." Hao Ren shrugged. "These guys are watching a show and playing mahjong outside. Don't take them seriously after coming in."
I feel sorry for the coolies using the mahjong tiles provided by Raven 12345 for free.”
"Just think about how to explain to Hasselblad the big bump on his head." Vivian chuckled and finally looked at Baptiste next to her.
"This human wizard... I really didn't expect that this guy would be involved in this commotion six hundred years ago. But I have no memory of him at all."
Hao Ren couldn't help but asked curiously: "By the way, I wanted to ask you just now, how could you be awakened and lured here by this Baptiste? Weren't you supposed to be sleeping in the cemetery area? Why did you end up sleeping here instead?
Became that evil thought body?"
"This Baptiste should have come with the purpose of waking me up from the beginning," Vivian said. "As for why I was not in the cemetery area, but was occupied by an evil body... well...
…”
Seeing the embarrassed look on Vivian's face, Hao Ren's curiosity became even more unstoppable: "What exactly happened?"
"I'm most likely sleepwalking."
Hao Ren & Lily: "..."
"I knew you must have this reaction," Vivian blushed, "It's just sleepwalking, it's just sleepwalking, okay! It's not a big deal!"
"But you are definitely the first person who can sleepwalk in his own dream world." Hao Ren looked at Vivian in disbelief, "Next time I will try to find you directly in the real world, no matter what.
No longer dealing with your shadow realm, the space you created while sleeping is simply weird and resembles an ancient secret realm!"
To be honest, if there hadn't been an evil entity that jumped out to cause trouble this time, Hao Ren wouldn't have gone into this shadow world to confront Vivian's Dream Guard. He would have broken it directly from the outside just like he did in Siberia.
"Don't worry, in most cases it won't be as troublesome for you to wake me up as this time... Even in the entire ten thousand years of history, it is not common for me to arrange my sleeping place to this extent,"
Vivian smiled a little awkwardly, and then changed the topic a little stiffly, "Then again, I really can't remember this farce six hundred years ago, especially about Baptiste and the Evil Mind Body.
This part... I have no impression at all."
"Isn't it just that you have forgotten what happened back then?" Lily folded her arms and squinted at the forgetful ancient vampire, "So many demon hunters are risking their lives to help you take care of the evil body, and there is also a Ba
Tist has been running around to be your little brother, but it turns out that you are so lucky that you just turned your face and forgot about it. You really have a bad memory as you get older."
Vivian rolled her eyes at the husky girl: "Ivory cannot come out of a dog's mouth."
Then she sighed: "But you are right, I really forgot again accidentally: after all, people are usually confused when they first wake up, and most of the things that happened at this stage cannot be remembered clearly."
Hao Ren was a little curious: "I don't know what happened on this day in the 'real history' where Lily and I didn't interfere."
"Then you can only ask Hesiana or Hasso to listen," Vivian laughed. "After all, my memory... has never been very reliable."
Her figure gradually became illusory.
"Ah, it's time for me to leave," Vivian looked down at her translucent hands, "Can we only have such a short conversation? It seems that this 'sandbox system' is really not very stable."
"We can meet again in the next era." Hao Ren looked into Vivian's eyes.
"Of course," Vivian smiled and raised her hand to wave to Hao Ren and Lily, "Then let's see you in the next era..."
As her words fell, her breath completely disappeared from this space.
"Let's go now," Lily scratched her hair, "What are we going to do next, landlord?"
Hao Ren smacked his lips: "If you go by your experience of 'coming in' last time, those two guys should be..."
Before he could finish his words, he heard Hasselblad's hissing voice: "Hey, you two guys are really fighting?!"
Hesiana's voice followed closely: "Someone is really good at deception. How could I be so easily fooled six hundred years ago?"
Well, everything went as expected, Hasselblad and Hessiana entered the scene.
Hao Ren turned around and saw Hasselblad walking towards this direction while complaining. The big bags on the old hunter's head looked particularly conspicuous: when he was still an "enemy" before, he had a mentality of not being outdone.
He didn't show he cared about these injuries, but now he didn't have to pretend. As he walked over, he carefully touched the bag on his head with his hand: "You two are so unkind... I don't care if you fool me.
Now, if you want to hit my bag, just hit it, do you need to use such force?"
Hao Ren quickly explained his words: "Hey, please speak clearly. I admit that I deceived you, but the main person who hit you is Lily... I just hit you once, and you didn't faint before..."
Lily immediately jumped up as if her tail had been stepped on: "Landlord, weren't you the one who asked me to smash it!"
Hasselblad was also indignant: "You still have the nerve to say that you didn't knock me out that time? You used a little force and knocked me out, but it was easier! Do you know how uncomfortable it is to stay in that portable space of yours? I just relied on you
It was only through the Witcher's meditation method that I was able to endure it... Hiss, it really hurts."
Lily muttered: "Who made your head so hard? I'm still taking it easy."
Hesiana also came over at this time. She glanced at Hasselblad: "Stop complaining. It's not like you don't know the situation. Do you have any choice between Hao Ren and Lily? You were a lunatic six hundred years ago, except for the demon hunter."
I'll quarrel with everyone else. If I want to get you to join the gang, what else can I do besides kinetic anesthesia?"
Hasselblad: "Kinetic anesthesia..."
Hesiana sighed: "Hey, I'm also resentful. Hao Ren, can't you just wait any longer? I'm going to do it three times."
Hao Ren was stunned: "Damn it, you guys are still playing mahjong outside?!"
"It's okay to be idle all day," Hesiana said confidently with her hands on her hips, "The whole earth is frozen, and I can't go back even if I want to. Raven 12345's big house is full of incomprehensible things, and
Nine of the ten gates are guarded by divine servants. Aren't we just bored and can only play cards all day long? Fortunately, the time flow inside you is faster than the time flow outside in the real world. You can't do anything here.
It only lasts two or three days if the moon is outside, otherwise we would have been bored to death waiting outside."
Hao Ren: "...I am Lady Vivian who is here to save the world and save you. Why are you talking so much nonsense?"
Hesiana spread her hands: "So, didn't I come in to help?"
Hao Ren opened his mouth, and suddenly realized that he was too full to fight with such a naughty kid, so he decisively changed the topic: "Okay, okay, let's not discuss these nonsense, let's talk about something related to the current situation.
Right. By the way, there's one thing I'm curious about. In the 'real history' where Lily and I didn't interfere, how did you two resolve this farce six hundred years ago?"
Hao Ren was just out of curiosity, because no matter how you look at it, the events that happened here six hundred years ago are not trivial. An evil body named Vivian was about to awaken, and a hunting group led by an elder demon hunter.
, a quirky little bat spirit full of wild ideas, a wizard with ulterior motives, and a group of witches who couldn't figure out the situation and were used as gunslingers. So many people gathered together in unexpected situations, and nothing serious happened.
It’s simply indescribable to the miraculous craftsmanship of nature.
"Six hundred years ago..." Hesiana had a troubled expression on her face, "To be honest, if I hadn't had this opportunity to look back on history, I would have forgotten it. Six hundred years ago, I almost died at the hands of a demon hunter.
"
"But she still ran away at the critical moment," Hasselblad took over. "I was indeed leading the team at the time, but just when we were about to attack Hesiana, the 'unknown vampire' who suddenly appeared, Weiwei
An's seal suddenly broke out, and her evil thoughts escaped."
Hesiana curled her lips: "Then all the demon hunters had to deal with Lady Vivian's evil body, so I took advantage of the chaos and ran away."
"We didn't find out that it was an 'evil thought body' in the end," Hasselblad said with a helpless smile, "My hunting group suffered heavy damage. In the end, it wasn't actually that we eliminated or repelled the evil thought body, but that the evil thought body suddenly attacked
We lost interest, and she took the initiative to leave, allowing us to save our lives."
"As for those witches and that Baptiste, they have almost no contact with me," Hesiana continued. "After all, in the original history, they didn't find strong foreign aid like you and Lily, so there weren't many.
This is an opportunity for him to be active. But it is certain that Baptiste is still very capable. He must have come into contact with Lady Vivian through some other means, otherwise there is no way to explain how he later opened the door to purgatory, and
Maybe in the original history, he had a share of credit for the evil thoughts running out early. Tsk, to be honest, I admire this guy. As a human wizard, he was really bold and did a big thing."
"You must find your mentor and lover no matter the cost, even if you have to be involved in the terrifying whirlpool of demon hunters and ancient vampires..."
Hao Ren murmured to himself and looked at the wizard standing not far away like a gray-white statue.
Somehow, he felt that his current journey across ten thousand years of time and space to find Vivian resonated slightly with the wizard's journey to purgatory.
