Time once again forgot this silent castle. The dream demon who was sleeping with the castle was finally awakened by the sound of the castle collapsing. Bulldozers and excavators carefully plowed every inch of the castle. The dream demon looked desperately at what was happening in front of him.
All in all, she can scare away passers-by, but she can't rebuild the castle.
The subsequent scenes became fragmented and sporadic, as if the memory was distorted by the loneliness and despair of the dream monster.
Luther was in a dream that was cut into pieces. He saw the dream monster fighting with strange trainers, and saw people in strange clothes bringing the ribbon inlaid with gems to the dream monster... saw the dream
The demon angrily destroyed everything around it and jumped into the night... I saw her restless and sleepless every night in the forest. I also saw her taking care of the abandoned elves and cuddling with other dream monsters.
.
The world returned to the original surging fog.
Luther looked at the dream demon with wet eyes. The words came to his lips, but he swallowed them again.
He recalled the moment when the girl caressed the dream monster in the courtyard full of flowers.
Luther cautiously reached out his hand, but hesitantly put it down.
After a long time, Luther patted his face, looked into the Dream Demon's eyes, and put his hand on the Dream Demon's head little by little.
The shadow of the dream monster did not convey any real feeling of touch, and the fog surrounding Luther gradually dissipated.
Luther looked blankly at the white surroundings. The dream monsters disintegrated little by little in the air, and noisy voices began to pour into his exhausted mind.
"Wake up, wake up!"
A familiar voice sounded in Luther's ears. Luther opened his eyes with difficulty, and Sachiko's excited face appeared in Luther's field of vision.
Luther's hands and feet were wrapped in bandages, and plasterboard was fixed on his arms. There was a heavy and tight wrapping feeling on his forehead. There must have been a lot of white cloth wrapped around it.
There was a fruit basket, flowers and his own backpack placed in front of Luther's hospital bed. Shuttlecock, who had regained his energy, La Ruelas and Mary Lou suddenly threw themselves into Luther's arms.
This was going to be fatal. The ignorant actions of the three little guys made Luther's misery worse and he screamed in pain. Sachiko quickly took the three little guys away from the hospital bed.
"How long have I been asleep?"
"Two days, two full days." Sachiko replied: "The doctor said you suffered a trauma on your back, but after treatment that night, they found that your problem was not serious, but I don't know why you couldn't wake up."
"The doctor drove over with me that night when he heard that you had an accident. Do you know what it was like when the search and rescue team saw more than twenty unconscious elves lying on the edge of a creek... Everyone was frightened.
Before I came here, I joked and comforted the doctor, asking whether Luther would become the fastest player from the beginning to the end of the trainer's journey. But I saw you lying on the ground with a bloody head and a bunch of bruises.
On the ground.”
Luther smiled bitterly, and then remembered something.
"Where are the elves?"
"Oh, they were properly treated by the elf center. They were a little resistant at first, but with the help of Heiluga, they became obedient. Four wild elves have chosen to follow the doctor after being taken care of."
"Let me guess, it won't be Swamp King, Jackrabbit, Owl and Patchlitz."
"how do you know?"
Luther smiled. He was very grateful to these four wild elves who had encountered difficulties in the road. He did not expect that Dr. Yamanashi's methods were so superb. He just brought the four elves into the research institute when he was in a coma.
He didn’t even give Luther a drink of soup!
Luther smiled and remained silent for a while before asking: "Where is the dream monster?"
Sachiko, who had always had a sweet smile, turned gloomy: "She still hasn't woken up... She has been checked like you and confirmed that there is nothing serious, but she has been unconscious... The doctor said that she was dreaming. According to the instrument, she was in a dream.
The mood swings are very high and it’s a nightmare.”
Can a dreamer be trapped in his own dreams?
It sounds a bit ridiculous, but Luther and the Dream Demon had seen the deserted castle together. He didn't find it ridiculous, only that it was inexplicably desolate.
This guy who was forced to be homeless went around in circles and was constantly hurt. It seemed that he had never smiled since that girl, and finally left all his good things in a dream.
Luther struggled to get up. Sachiko originally wanted to stop him, but seeing Luther's extremely persistent attitude, she took the initiative to help Luther. She is a person who knows how to watch his words.
Luther, who was stumbling on his feet, followed Sachiko's instructions and came to the monitoring room of the elf center next door. Through the glass window of the monitoring room, Luther could see that in the cubicle of the monitoring room, the body of the dream monster was covered with unknown signs.
line, while the wave spectrum displayed on the machine nearby fluctuates up and down regularly.
The dream demon still frowned, looking painful.
A pair of hands patted Luther's shoulder, and a middle-aged man wearing a brown windbreaker and an old-fashioned suit with a vicissitudes of life on his face came to Luther's side.
"Excuse me, who are you?" Sachiko stepped forward to separate Luther and the middle-aged man.
"As for the name, it's hard to disclose it for this reason. As for the code name, they all call me 'handsome guy'." The middle-aged man took out a document from his windbreaker pocket. The badge and text displayed in the document showed that he was a
international police.
Luther knew this identity and even knew the person "Handsome Guy".
The International Police is a law enforcement agency in the elf world. They are assigned to many areas to investigate local evil organizations and their activities. In the setting that Luther knows, the International Police that has been active for a long time is right in front of him.
This middle-aged man is codenamed "Handsome Guy".
Luther doesn't know why the international police came to find him. Could it be that the original manufacturer Luther has some bad deeds?
"In view of the special nature of the question, can this lovely young lady please avoid it?" the handsome man asked politely.
Sachiko knew what complicated situation might have occurred and left the custody room with great knowledge.
After confirming that there was no one around, the handsome guy took out a gemstone fragment shining with red light and placed it in his hand for Luther to observe.
"This was found on the grass near the creek where you and the Dream Demon fought last night. Because the material is very special, Dr. Yamanashi contacted the Elf Alliance, and the Elf Alliance notified me who was nearby. I want to ask you,
Are you impressed by this gem?"
Luther picked up the ruby fragment, observed it carefully for a while, and nodded.
"Yes, this is the decoration the Dream Demon was wearing when I saw it. When we finally stopped the Dream Demon from harming himself, it broke into pieces."
The handsome guy's expression was quite solemn. He rubbed his chin and paced back and forth in front of Luther.
"Excuse me...what is this gem? What does it have to do with the dream demon's madness?" Luther noticed the connection between the two and couldn't help but ask.
The handsome guy stopped, raised his wrist, glanced at his watch, sighed, and said, "Time does not allow me to explain. Dr. Yamanashi will explain it to you later. I can only tell you that you have done a great job."
The dream demon was saved because of you."
After saying that, the handsome guy left in a hurry, leaving Luther alone in a daze holding the charming fragment of the gem.
After sitting outside the custody room for a long time, Sachiko took Dr. Yamanashi and sat next to Luther.
"Has Interpol come?" Dr. Yamanashi asked.
Luther nodded.
"Guess what that gem is."
"A tool that can control the movements of elves?" Luther also thought about several possibilities while sitting there, and he did not hesitate to name the most likely one.
Dr. Yamanashi picked up the gem fragments in Luther's palm, then took out a handful of broken gem fragments from his pocket and spread them in Sachiko's palm.
Luther fiddled with a few of them, and suddenly found that there were traces of polishing and inlaying on the insides of several gem fragments. Such dense striped circuits could not be naturally generated.
"Is there something inside the gem?" Luther was a little surprised.
"Yes, they used gems as a cover to put in a machine that stimulates nerves with radio waves to increase the power of elf skills." Dr. Yamanashi showed an expression of disgust on his face, "This is a forbidden research, because this increase will increase with time.
As the elf uses skills more often, the elf gradually loses its rationality and judgment, and finally turns into a puppet directing crazy attacks."
Luther's hand fidgeting with the gem fragments trembled. He hurriedly endured the pain and stood up, lying on the glass of the custodial room and looking at the unconscious Dream Demon.
"Almost all things that conscientious researchers will not continue to study have been completed by some crazy people. They use these props in underground elf fighting, gambling, and even wild fighting situations. People who pursue ultimate power are very useful.
This thing is very fanatical. The surveillance and arrests in various areas of the Elf Alliance made them disappear for many years. When everyone had almost forgotten about them, they appeared again."
Luther clenched his fists tightly, and the pain in his palms could not stop Luther's actions.
"Don't you think it's too much?"
Dr. Yamanashi sighed: "The peaceful and tranquil environment of the elf world breeds these scum... Regarding the total number of people who love elves, they are an extremely small number... but this small number of people often cause harm and harm to the elves and us.
maximum."
"Sometimes the sun doesn't reach every corner of the earth."
Luther sat in a chair with his head lowered.
The abandoned elves who followed the doctor gathered at the door of the intensive care unit, anxiously looking at the dream monster who was still unconscious in the intensive care unit.
"Will she wake up?" Luther asked softly.
Dr. Yamanashi shook his head: "I can't give an answer. At present, it seems that it is not whether he will wake up, but whether the dream demon is willing to wake up. She seems to have closed herself in a dream. The instrument shows that it seems to be a nightmare.
But she just didn't want to wake up from the nightmare... Maybe that nightmare was sweeter than what happened to her later."
With permission, Luther opened the door of the custody room, and the abandoned elves rushed in, lying around the Dream Demon's crib, looking forward to the Dream Demon's awakening with eager eyes.
