Since discovering the truth about this dream world, Allen has been thinking about a question:
Who was the mysterious man who saved him from death?
Why did that person want to save himself?
Why did he and Isabella escape death and come to this dream world, but he was the only one passing by the Rainbow Bridge?
That mysterious rainbow bridge...what exactly does it do?
Regarding this issue, Allen made some guesses.
He felt that perhaps the purpose of this rainbow bridge was to help him directly find Catherine's location in this vast dream world.
After all, according to Elani's description, the two personalities of the goddess of light spend most of their time in this vast world, without contact with each other, and do not know the location of the other. To find each other, the difficulty is comparable to that of Haidilao
Needle.
Because of this, during these long years, Elani has been unable to devour Katherine and thus erase mortal emotions.
But as soon as the mysterious man took action, Allen was able to reach Catherine directly.
Allen believes that this is definitely no coincidence.
"So... what is that person's purpose?" Allen silently guessed in his heart, "Is it possible that he also has a grudge against the goddess of light and wants to use my hand to deal with her?"
Allen didn't know.
But now that it's a critical moment, Allen doesn't have time to think about it anymore.
Now, Catherine is competing with Elani for the dominance of this dream world and even the godhead of the goddess of light, causing the whole world to be in chaos.
The crowds formed by subconscious projections continued to launch frantic attacks on Allen, and then continued to turn into countless fragments and disappear in front of the wall of light conjured by Catherine.
Immediately afterwards, the entire Sun Temple began to tremble violently, as if a major earthquake had occurred. The gravel and gravel fell one after another like a heavy rain, accompanied by violent sounds.
The glass of the window also fell to the ground with a crash, turning into a pile of shiny shards.
At the same time, it started to rain outside the window, a menacing, apocalyptic rainstorm.
Dark clouds filled the entire sky in just a few seconds, and the pouring rain was like a flood from heaven, pouring down on this world.
In Alan's impression, this was the first time it rained in this dream world.
Before that, this dream world was always sunny and cloudless, and the air was always filled with a comfortable warmth, hot, and dazzling, just like the beautiful name of the dream owner.
"bright."
In this disastrous scene, Catherine was obviously at a disadvantage.
The wall made of light was gradually dimming, so that occasionally a few subconscious projection figures would break through this line of defense and squeeze into Allen's side, forcing Allen to take action on his own and use magic to solve these problems.
Enemies keep coming.
At the same time, Catherine's figure seemed to be gradually losing substance and becoming transparent, and the expression on her face became increasingly numb. She was changing from a vibrant girl to a ghost who had been dead for many years.
However, Allen could still see the fear deep in her heart through her eyes.
"Teacher, I don't want to disappear..."
These ethereal words lingered in Allen's ears again.
Allen sighed softly.
He stepped sideways to Catherine's side and gently put his right hand on her shoulder, like a kind teacher looking at a student who made him proud.
"Don't be afraid, I'll help you." He said softly.
As he spoke, a powerful spiritual power poured into Catherine's body from Allen's palm.
Just like that, the tired look on Catherine's face disappeared, and her whole person became vivid again.
Allen knew that although his authority was incomplete, under the influence of the godhead, his spiritual power was far more powerful than that of ordinary people. Although it was much weaker than the goddess of light, it was enough to win the battle for dominance.
Act as the straw that breaks the camel's back.
Even if Ilani cannot be completely wiped out in turn, it can at least make Catherine stronger. In this way, even if she leaves this dream world, she can continue to survive without being swallowed by Ilani and become
She seeks sacrifices of divinity and power.
So, Allen knew that it was time for him to think about new issues.
How do I escape from this dream world?
According to the description in the notes of the high priest Delphi, he should have woken up from his dream as soon as he opened his eyes.
Isabella's condition is currently unknown.
It's just that Allen now...no matter how he tries to open his eyes wider, he can't break away from this dream.
It was like the experience of being trapped in a nightmare in childhood, being cornered by ghosts, but unable to open my eyes, and could only wail helplessly in the dream.
"Ilya, stop struggling." At this moment, a faint smile appeared on the face of the priestess Elani again, "Even if you discover the secrets of this world, even if you create a lot of trouble for me, you
Don’t even think about escaping from this dream.”
"What did you do to me?" Allen asked. Because he had already guessed this, he was not surprised when he heard what Elani said.
"To be honest, since you entered this dream, I have placed mental shackles on your soul," Elani said with a smile, "Now, your soul has been imprisoned in this dream. Unless I want to
Get rid of this dream, otherwise you will have to stay in it for the rest of your life.
"So, Elijah, hand over your authority and Catherine to me, and I will let you out. You must know that although you can persist for a while, you cannot be my opponent in this world."
Allen stopped talking.
After helping Catherine for a period of time, Allen also felt exhausted. There was not much mental strength left, as if his whole body had been completely hollowed out.
He knew that what Elani said was right.
She is a symbol of the divinity of the goddess of light, worshiped by thousands of believers, and her endless power of faith makes her eternally invincible.
And Allen's authority is incomplete.
As a symbol of humanity, Catherine has little support from the power of faith and can only rely on herself.
There is no doubt that if time continues to pass, the outcome will undoubtedly be as Elani said. Allen gives up the authority of God and Catherine is completely obliterated.
Elani became the only will of the goddess of light and became even more powerful.
While Allen was thinking hard, Catherine beside him suddenly spoke:
"Teacher, you are from the outside world, right?"
"Yes."
"What's the world like outside?"
Allen came back to his senses, smiled, and said to her: "The world outside... is much more complicated than here. There is wind, rain, long dark nights, and shining stars outside."
"Sounds beautiful."
No matter what time she is, she can always see the bright side of things. Allen commented silently in his mind. At the same time, he thought of the tabby cats and wheat ears in the fields.
Then he responded:
"Yes, it's beautiful."
"If I have the chance, I really want to go out with you."
"There will be a chance." Allen said softly. His voice did not sound confident.
However, at this moment, a huge crack appeared on the ceiling of the temple.
Not only the temple, but also a crack appeared in the gray sky.
It was as if the entire dream world had turned into a picture scroll, and then been roughly torn open by a pair of invisible hands.
I heard Catherine shout loudly:
"Teacher, let's go quickly."
Immediately, before Allen could recover, he felt a strong push, pushing him to fly quickly towards the crack.
This force was obviously extremely powerful, enveloping Allen's entire body, making it impossible for him to break free.
At the same time, Catherine's body shone brightly, as if her whole body had turned into a blazing torch.
"Catherine, what are you doing?" he shouted sharply, anger finally appearing in his eyebrows.
But Catherine was indifferent to this.
At this time, her smile was as bright as a flower, just like when they first met in the field.
"Teacher, I probably can't go out," she stood there fixedly, watching Allen's figure quickly disappear into the crack, and said softly, "You have to take care of yourself and look outside for me.
landscape."
"Goodbye, my prince."
As soon as she finished speaking, her body melted into a dreamlike golden foam, and then gradually dissipated.
