Hao Ren's reminder made others, including Lily and Vivian, raise their hands and look at the back of their hands as if they suddenly remembered it. Before setting off, everyone performed a marking ceremony in the World Tree Hall.
There should have been a resurrection mark from the World Tree on the back of their hands, but now, all the marks have disappeared.
Everyone almost exclaimed in unison: "No more?! Damn it! What? Meow meow meow? I'm going!"
Well, it doesn’t look very neat either…
The Seal of the World Tree, its greatest function is to bind everyone's life information and provide a precious resurrection opportunity when a fatal threat occurs, and its disappearance only means one thing: this resurrection opportunity has been consumed.
.
But no one remembers that he has died once!
"What's going on?" Lily felt like she was getting furry in an instant, and even felt like she had lost her life. "Why are the resurrection coins gone like this? I don't remember that I died in Lahirion..."
"Of course no one died, because according to the preset plan before departure, if all of us consume the resurrection mark, then the World Tree will immediately initiate forced detachment and drag us all back to the main material universe, and this process
Even the Dark Realm cannot stop it." Hao Ren waved his hand, "The resurrection mark disappeared because we were assimilated when we entered Lahirien's dream. No one has the memory of that moment, but it should have definitely happened.
, happened at a certain first moment. I think that assimilation into the dream may mean 'erasure' in the real world. This process is enough to activate the imprint's less rigorous judgment mechanism, so the imprint is consumed.
, but in fact we are all still alive, so the forced escape program on the World Tree side has not been activated."
Lily blinked and drooped her tail: "Ah... I just wasted a resurrection coin..."
"No, it worked," Hao Ren smiled slightly, "It counteracted the assimilation effect of Lahirion's dream on us, so we can carry out activities while fully awake. Without this mark, we would probably
Just start accepting tasks to make a living in that White Maple Leaf City, and then continue the cycle for hundreds of thousands of years, until this goddess wakes up on her own initiative..."
The goddess of creation spread her hands: "When I am sleeping, I am just Leah. Even I am trapped in a dream, so it is none of my business."
Hao Ren: "..."
Why do you suddenly feel that the painting style of this goddess is shaking?
After hearing Hao Ren's words, everyone else broke into a cold sweat. Nangong Sanba looked at the back of his hand: "Fuck... I suddenly felt so nervous when I heard this. If I didn't have this thing,
Not to mention seeing through the truth of the dream, we will even forget who we are... Oh wait, that's not right. According to your statement, this mark should have disappeared from the beginning. How come all of us are like this?
Didn’t you notice?”
"Of course I didn't notice it, didn't you? You suddenly remembered the existence of this resurrection mark after I reminded you just now," Hao Ren said unhurriedly, "If my guess is right, this mark was
It accepted the assimilation of Lahirien's dream on our behalf, so it became part of that dream and disappeared completely from everyone's memory at the same time. If not, we would not be able to completely isolate Lahirien.
The influence of grace.”
Speaking of this, Hao Ren suddenly remembered something, so he quickly opened the portable space and released Doudou. The little mermaid should have been playing in his aquarium before, and when he was suddenly released, he was still holding a delicate
The little conch had a happy expression on her face. Then the happy expression turned into confusion, but then quickly turned into happiness again. She jumped onto Hao Ren's shoulder in a flash, holding the conch in her hand while jumping.
Waving around: "Dad! I dug a sand pit in that big water tank! There are a lot of shells in it!"
"Well, let me see the back of your hand," Hao Ren responded to the little guy's noisy behavior while grabbing the fish baby's arm, "Sure enough... Even if you stay in the portable space, Doudou's resurrection mark is also consumed
Lost, and she was only active outside during the short period of time when we just arrived in Lahirien and before entering White Maple Leaf City. The portable space she stayed in after that was a place that could isolate cause and effect and time and space. The theory is
It will not be disturbed by dreams, so as I guessed, the mark was consumed at the beginning, and after that we obtained a 'wake buff', even with Leah, who is the source of dreams.
We have not been affected by her at all..."
At this time, Nolan, who had been floating in the sky and not participating in the topic, suddenly said: "Boss, then why don't you think I was assimilated by the dream? I don't have any resurrection mark at all."
The words of the ship girl immediately stopped Hao Ren. He opened his mouth but couldn't explain it. But at this time, the goddess of creation who was standing next to him took the initiative to answer Nolan's doubts.
: "Because your existence is beyond my understanding."
Nolan: "Huh?"
"Dreams have limits. No matter how much room there is for change, I can't describe something I don't understand. You... part of you is completely beyond my knowledge, and it is beyond Lahiri."
En's world view, if I were controlling that dream while awake, maybe I could still find a way to give a reasonable explanation for your existence, but Lahirian operates automatically, which makes it fundamentally
There is no way to assimilate you..."
Hao Ren was stunned as he listened to the goddess's explanation. At first, he didn't understand how a civilian-grade spaceship like Nolan could surpass the understanding of the goddess of creation. After all, this out-of-school goddess had never received a systematic education.
She is also a model of self-taught. At least she can figure out everything in the universe, but soon he thought of Nolan or something with the most technological content on the Giant Turtle Rock Platform.
It's the void engine.
The goddess of creation silently clicked on the technology tree by herself, and the highest achievement at the end was just to successfully throw Vivian and Yggdrasil's Ark into the next world. Therefore, she did not master the real cross-over at all.
World navigation technology, but Nolan...she has a void engine that can sail in the void and travel freely around the world!
In addition to this engine, whether it is other conventional equipment of the Giant Turtle Rock Platform, or the personal equipment of Hao Ren and his party, as well as the life forms of the members, they are all things that can be easily analyzed and reproduced by the Goddess of Creation, so they can be completely immersed.
He entered Lahirien's dream, but because of the existence of this engine, Nolan's process of being assimilated into the dream was "stuck"...
The questions about Lahirien's dream were answered one by one, and Hao Ren felt a little enlightened, but the goddess of creation suddenly stretched herself at this time: "Although I really want to continue chatting with you, it seems that we are already here
We have been delayed in this ruins for too long. If you don’t mind, how about we leave this place first and continue these topics? I still have a lot of things to do..."
Hao Ren knew that the "many things" the goddess said might still include her plan to destroy everyone, but at this time, it might not be easy to persuade the other party to give up this plan immediately and accept his new plan, so he decided
After we go out, we can slowly discuss the issue of saving the world with this goddess who has a low level of education but a sense of recklessness.
But before leaving the dark realm, he still cared about one thing: "I have one last question, which is about the Lahirien dream itself. Is it really created by you out of thin air? Or does it have...what origin?"
As he expected, the goddess of creation's face changed slightly after hearing this question. Then she raised her head and looked past the ruins of the palace floating in the darkness to the depths of the vast chaos: there,
There was a torn planet floating quietly in space, and a layer of faint mist emitting a shimmering light enveloped the surface of the split planet.
Just as you can see the Shattered Heaven when you look up to the sky on the land of Lahirien, you can also see Lahirien when you look up at the sky in the "Shattered Heaven". Reality and dreams have a wonderful intersection here.
Due to the obstruction of the fog of chaos, even the demigod's eyesight cannot clearly see the details of the planet's surface, but from some vague outlines, some things on the surface of the planet can still be vaguely discerned.
For example, a long and narrow plain surrounded by two mountains...
"You have seen it, right..." After a long time, the goddess looked away and sighed softly, "Yes, that is Lahirien... a place that once really existed."
"It was involved in the great explosion of the Kingdom of God?" Hao Ren asked curiously, "Then you regarded it as the prototype of that dream?"
The goddess's voice was a little low: "No, it was originally here... outside the boundaries of the world."
When Hao Ren heard this sentence, his eyes widened instantly, and he almost jumped up: "Wait a minute! You said that Lahirian... it was originally here? In this universe that is almost out of order, it is almost
Will you fall into the void?!"
At this moment, a huge amount of information poured into Hao Ren's mind. Countless conjectures and conclusions popped up one after another, almost making him feel like his brain was boiling. Among these conjectures and conclusions, the most direct and the most exciting
The unbelievable one occupied most of his brain capacity:
Beyond the dream plane and the surface world, was there a third universe?!
"You're surprised, right? I was also surprised at first," the Creation Goddess said lightly. "When the Founding Star exploded, I thought I would be thrown out of the world along with the broken Kingdom of God. In that
The place you call 'The Void' was completely annihilated, but unexpectedly, it fell into a small, narrow and dark universe. There is even a planet called Lahirien, on which a group of aliens live.
I was almost dead at that time, and only my remaining thoughts were still lingering in the wreckage of the Founding Star. I tried my best to restrain the energy impact of the Founding Star spreading outward, and it took about two hundred years.
...But it failed after all, and the shock wave erupted from the ruins of the Kingdom of God tore apart everything in this small universe, including Lahirien."
From that day on, the severely injured Goddess of Creation truly fell into a deep sleep, and Lahirien became a dream to her.
