After Annan left the nightmare, he gradually felt the existence of his body again, as well as the "Three Sirens (2/3)" he always held in his hands.
Annan could clearly feel that he was maintaining a standing posture and rising upwards.
Without opening his eyes, Annan's perception was like invisible tentacles, crossing the shield of the lava tower, and he felt that there were many people above waiting for something.
After regaining the inverted Heart of Winter, Annan's thinking became rational again. He immediately realized that those people above should be the "reinforcements" who had previously entered the nightmare to save Annan.
The owner of the tower should have told them that he had woken up and was about to come up... That's why they were waiting for them at the exit of the "elevator". Or when Annan rescued Isaac and Ofishi, they
I knew Annan was leaving soon.
They were waiting for Annan to leave the nightmare...to see him as soon as possible. Just like parents waiting for their children to leave the college entrance examination room.
...or in other words, it’s like welcoming relatives and friends who are released from prison.
Although Annan was indeed very moved when they came to rescue him... but now they are blocking the door of the dungeon, most likely not to celebrate that Annan has become stronger again.
How should I put it, it's a little bit bad.
In particular, this "elevator" falls very fast when it falls, like a jumping machine, giving people the feeling of falling without weight. But when it rises, it climbs unexpectedly slowly...
The Lava Forbidden Tower has sufficient energy power, which is far from being able to lift an "elevator" that can only accommodate one person.
unless……
It's deliberately designed to be slow.
After all, this nightmare entrance cannot be reserved exclusively for otherworldly nightmares.
Annan analyzed that this [underground guide rail] should be a unique ritual of the Lava Forbidden Tower. It must be used to enter the dream world. "Sudden fall" is a very convenient technique for switching reality and dream world.
Just like a person who suddenly falls in a nightmare can wake up instantly; in reality, a "sudden fall" can also be used to make a person instantly fall into the dream world. In the fog world, some extraordinary people will fall into a sudden fall due to fright.
Although they were instantly comatose, their bodies did not suffer any damage, but they could not be woken up because their souls had actually fallen into a nightmare.
In other words, this [underground guide rail] is actually a scheduling device...a task retriever.
"Underground" can also be used to refer to "alien" in rituals. People's fear of the underground has been associated with the imagination of "underworld", "abyss" and "demon world" since ancient times.
If Annan guessed correctly, the height of this [underground guide rail] was measured in advance, and these four pillars were also connected in a ceremony.
As long as four people enter the pillar at the same time and fall instantly, they can be queued up into a random book. And four people will be in the same nightmare!
In this case, the difficulty of purifying nightmares instantly decreases a lot. Because you can learn from the old and learn the new, you can even teach while playing, teaching and entertaining.
Then it should start to slowly rise
Raise it all the way to the top.
In the alien-level nightmare, it has always stayed at the lowest level because Annan's position before entering the nightmare was here. If it floated up in advance, Annan would probably appear in the lava.
It's definitely not possible to die, but it will probably be a bit embarrassing.
In a normal nightmare, people probably won't stay underground for too long as their bodies are still in the cabin. Even if the high temperature can be isolated by the ritual layer, the gravity at that depth is very bad for the body.
There should be some kind of ritual for monitoring nightmares in the Lava Forbidden Tower.
Alien-level ones definitely can't detect it, but ordinary nightmares can definitely detect it. Back then, Kaizi Sa knew how to do this, so there's no reason why the tower master of the Lava Forbidden Tower couldn't.
So, in this "four-person book", when someone is about to have a problem... it can also provide a "forced disconnection" function: as long as the re-raised [underground guide rail] falls again, the person can be saved from the nightmare.
Kick him out directly.
This is probably the reason why so many people die every year in the Lava Forbidden Tower, but there is always enough silver to work around the world.
It is a special ritual method used by the Lava Forbidden Tower to quickly become a transcendent!
I'm afraid that the reinforcements at that time were organized into groups of four through this ceremony, and were "pumped" one by one into this otherworldly nightmare like lifting a depressed water pump.
as expected.
When Annan passed this "elevator" and slowly ascended to the seventeenth floor underground of the Lava Forbidden Tower.
While Annan was thinking, the "elevator door" opened.
He saw at a glance that everyone was waiting outside.
Salvatore, Maria, Kafni, about seventeen or eight players, as well as Isaac and Ofesh who were rescued by Annan, as well as several other "Silver Brigade" such as Arthur Zhuoya
The members are also there.
There are also unexpected guests, including the lower half centaur Chiron, Paper Princess, and the faceless poet.
They packed this originally empty floor to the brim.
...My relatives and friends are all here.
Annan was silent for a moment.
If he hadn't regained the reversed Heart of Winter, he would probably feel a strong social death experience now.
While Annan was thinking, an irrepressible radiant power overflowed.
Except for the gods, the power that expanded made everyone couldn't help but retreat. Even the gold-level extraordinary beings could not look directly at this fierce light.
After all, this is not a body that has lost most of its power in an alien-level nightmare... but Annan in perfect condition.
He was even stronger than when he entered the nightmare.
As the level increases, Annan's perception attributes also increase significantly. Now Annan's level is close to the peak level of the gold level... Coupled with the new ability of the "Almighty One", he may be able to defeat this nightmare in a short time.
My former self.
It is precisely because of this
While Annan was trying hard to contain his strength so as not to cause harm to his friends.
Kafni ignored the scorching light and was the first to pounce.
She hugged Annan directly, resting her chin on Annan's shoulder. Her body was shaking like a frightened puppy, but she remained silent and muffled.
Annan just grinned wordlessly.
He felt Kaifuni's nails digging into his back... There seemed to be a shadow stirring under her skirt, unconsciously tapping Annan's calves and thighs.
He just patted Kaifuni's back gently as a way of comforting her. Only then did Annan realize belatedly that he had returned to his teenage body.
It's a bit of a pity, because the previous youth mode body was quite easy to use.
If Annan still had the "perfect body" of an adult, when Kaifni lay in his arms now, she would only be able to reach his chest at most.
But Kafni is worthy of being the queen of a country.
Today's Kafni... is completely different from the immature, lonely and confused little girl before.
It only took a short moment, maybe ten seconds, for her to regain her composure.
She leaned on Annan's shoulder and took a deep breath, her whole body completely restored to calm. The tentacles that were constantly stirring under her skirt also settled down.
"grown ups……"
She stood up straight, raised her head rarely and looked at Annan, and said seriously: "If you plan to do such a dangerous thing next time, please be sure to inform me first.
"I will never be a burden to you now.
"I am strong now and I can protect you."
Those are somewhat familiar words.
The moment Kafni said this.
Annan felt an oppressive force from her.
The sky-like sea of shadows flows in all directions, rising and falling like a tide. It is an endless and boundless power... It is almost equivalent to the surging light in Annan at the moment.
It neutralizes the light that is constantly overflowing from Annan, allowing the unusually bright space around it to return to its original state.
That is the power that belongs to the other side of "brilliance".
