Chapter 70: Jumping into the Lake and the Old Land
Quins' body trembled, and he suddenly opened his eyes, seeing a familiar cabin.
The surrounding environment was hazy. This was a dream. After entering Bayonetta's dream countless times, Quins was extremely sure of this. After quickly sensing his own state, Quins did not sense Sophia's existence.
"Very good. In this case, my body is protected." Putting aside his external insecurities, Quins stood up and looked out the window first. Within ten yards, it was almost the same as reality.
Ten yards away there was fog.
Tuk-tuk-tuk!
There was a knock on the door.
Quins opened the door warily, "Andrea?" Andrea Daniel is the only little boy on the Kunya. It could be Andrea? Are everyone in a dream?
"Follow me to the deck, the captain is waiting." Andrea turned and left.
Quins didn't have time to think about it, and immediately followed him. After three or two turns, Quins and Andrea came to the deck. At this time, the deck was already full of sailors, and the leader was the captain Adela Sheridan.
Together with the ship's doctor, Caroline Malan, more than 20 people stood silently on the deck, neatly organized, and a dignified aura filled the air among everyone.
These people corroborated Quines' previous conjecture.
Adela Sheridan glanced at Quins and Andrea who appeared behind the crowd and said: "Everyone is here, you are all old sailors, you all know the rules, so I won't say more.
"
After finishing speaking, Adela Sheridan took two steps back, came to the deck, and jumped off the ship. Then the ship's doctor, Caroline Malan, lined up like dumplings one by one from the Kuniya to Moon Lake.
Mid jump.
Quins was confused and quickly grabbed Andrea who was about to dive: "What on earth is going on?"
Andrea Daniel struggled for a while, but did not break free from Quins' hand. He said helplessly: "It's very simple. In the dream of Wangyue Neihu, everything is the opposite, so no one who enters the dream can stay where he is. If he wants to
You can’t stay where you are after escaping from the dreamland.”
"On the contrary? So that's it." Quince looked thoughtfully at the sailors jumping off the Kunya one by one, and unconsciously let go of Andrea's hand.
As Andrea was the last one to jump off the boat, Quins came to the deck and looked down. With so many people jumping out, there was no movement at all. The surface of the lake was even calmer and still as dark as ink.
After studying for a while and finding nothing useful, Quins stopped ink-writing and jumped off the deck with a plop.
boom!
A roar rang in Quins' ears, and all he could see was black and white.
There was no suffocation, there was no lake water pouring in, and the preparations that were made were as bad as Quince's, but they had no effect.
The black and white colors faded, and when Quins looked again, he was no longer in the lake, not even within the scope of Wangyue Lake. Here... it was Tigue. The cold streets, as well as the familiar Tigue Square and the statue of the Duke of Hell, were all reminders.
This is Tig.
The place where he stood was the Maple Leaf Opera House. Quins would never forget this scene. This was the eve of when he got the golden conch and the evil heart. This was the biggest fortune he had ever gotten so far, and even in the future.
This was also the case for a period of time. This huge wealth has never been used by him until now.
"It actually appeared here." Quines stood there and pondered. If he could still see it was a dream in the Kunia, then here, Quines couldn't see any trace of a dream.
On the Kunya, he remembered everything everyone said. Caroline Malan once said that time is the most important thing in dreams, so don’t lose yourself.
There is no doubt that what Caroline Malan meant by being lost was not immersing herself in the past. As soon as he entered here, he clearly realized that his past had been restored to a dream. It could not be the old-fashioned blocked memory.
, and then let yourself go through the past routine again.
If this possibility is ruled out, the meaning of getting lost is easy to understand. Find the exit of this dream or break the dream. But here comes the problem. Time is very important. If you wake up a minute too early, you will inevitably be pulled into reality.
At the bottom of the lake, if he was a little slower, what was waiting for him would be an endless pursuit of monsters at the bottom of the lake.
So how to determine the time?
In dreams, time is uncertain, even fast and slow, as Quince had already determined in Bayonetta's dream.
Shi Su! Quins can vaguely feel that one is real and the other is hazy. The two timelines are floating in his consciousness. The hazy timeline spirals onto the real timeline, erratic.
It's a pity. If I could practice the Secret of the Throne of Time to the third level, I wouldn't have to worry about this problem. Quins shook his head. Through the time element, he could confirm whether the time was close to the limit of three hours, but it couldn't be accurate.
positioning to that limit. Therefore, the first solution now is to determine the time, the precise time.
But in dreams, using things in dreams to determine time is a recipe for death.
So is it possible to find something in dreams that is eternal and does not change with dreams?
Quins' mind was racing, and his three thinking dimensions were running at full capacity. He made a detailed analysis of the legends and history of Moon Moon Lake, the words and deeds of the people on the Kunnia about the dream, etc.
Huh? A sudden idea flashed in Quins' mind. In Wangyue Lake, there is only one source of all legends, Silver Moon. Even the name of Wangyue Lake and the dividing line between the inner lake and the outer lake are related to Silver Moon.
.
Quins slowly raised his head and looked at the silver moon in the night sky. If he remembered correctly, this time was the day of the lunar eclipse, and there was no chance of any moonlight appearing. But now... the silver full moon was hanging high.
"Sure enough, this silver moon is the timer in the dream." The silver moon in the dream was only missing a corner at this time. It was almost a full moon. The silver moonlight filled the entire Tige. I compared the virtual and real timeline in my consciousness.
, Quins felt confident: "When the silver moon is swallowed up by darkness, is that the time when I come out of the dream?"
After solving the problem of the time to get out, the next step is to solve the problem of how to get out, and this level is the most difficult to solve. Throwing him into Tiguet Square for no reason, do you want him to kill the Duke of Hell and others who are fighting for the secret of the truth?
Killed everyone? Even though his strength today is completely different from what he was during Tiguet, he is not arrogant enough to challenge the devil or those who covet the secret of the truth.
Putting himself in his shoes, if he were in the position of Captain Adela Sheridan, would he encounter an existence that was much more threatening than himself? The answer is, most likely, yes.
Based on Adela Sheridan’s decades of experience in the inner lake of Wangyue Lake, she has never experienced a mysterious island, not even a layman like him, and the dangers of the mysterious island need no further elaboration. Caroline Malan said it before
Very clear.
It can be inferred from this that the fact that Adela Sheridan is still alive negates the idea of going from beginning to end in a dream.
Could it be the core truth of this incident? Let himself experience what he has experienced again?
Quines wasn't sure, there were too many possibilities.
Just as Quince was thinking about a way out of the dream, the battle for the pages of truth began again.
Seeing the Duke of Hell appearing on the statue in Teague Square, Quins gritted his teeth and said, "No matter what, get the pages of the book of truth first."
