Chapter 30 Dreamland

Although I didn't look like I had any problems, Professor Xue still took me to the hospital for a physical examination.

He is in good health and his indicators are normal, but the other three people have not woken up yet.

Yu Huaiyue and Li Mingxi were just in a coma due to overdrawn conditions, but Lin Luoan was different. Professor Xue examined his condition and said that he was trapped in a dream.

Perhaps because he forcibly reversed the advent, there was a collision between his spirit and the cat's spirit, and he was kicked into the dreamland. He did not pass through the [door] or any crack at all, and now he did not know where he was in the dreamland.

I roughly know the reason. The [Him] I have seen is already behind countless doors. For [Him], the Dream Realm is not a difficult place to enter... But my brother is too unlucky.

"When will my brother wake up?" I asked Xue Jin with a subtle expression.

Xue Jin: "He may not wake up... someone needs to bring him out."

His expression was serious. “Virar may not know that he is dreaming, so he has no concept of waking up.”

I was silent.

"But why do you keep calling me Govilar? He goes by the name Lin Luoan here, right?"

This is also what I have always been curious about. What kind of relationship do Villar and Lin Luoan have? According to the protagonist, they are different personalities, but judging from the fact that they can exist at the same time and Lin Luoan can consciously use Villar's power, it does not seem like two personalities.

"Because he only took the name Lin Luoan after returning to China this year. For the past 18 years, he has used the name Veraer Lin. The name Lin Luoan is not on the school list. I heard it from you. Except for you, he introduced everyone as Veraer." Xue Jin asked with confusion.

I was speechless for a moment.

I also thought about whether Villar represented the evil god version of him, and Lin Luoan represented the human version of him, but after listening to Xue Jin's words, this inference was denied.

It turns out that Lin Luoan didn't exist from the beginning.

It's like forcing yourself to ignore your own abnormalities and pretending to be an ordinary person.

I suddenly realized that Lin Luoan only appeared from the first moment we met, the moment he saw me.

This is the name that was made for me.

The first time we met, before I opened the dormitory door, he saw me through the door and then thought of the name.

...So that shock was fake too? He's such a good actor?

It was such an obvious thing, but I never doubted it. When the task was first issued, it clearly said "Viral Lin, the protagonist of this world". The system also said later that his eyes were mimicry, but I still foolishly thought that he had switched personalities.

So whatever is looking at me from behind my eyes is also fake.

How can a fool be so deceiving?

So, Lin Luoan, is he really stupid or just pretending to be stupid?

[…He's really stupid. He just instinctively wanted to act nicer in front of you. Although the host didn't say it, your dislike for the evil god is quite obvious.]

...Why are your elbows turned outwards???

Yes, if he was pretending to be stupid, he wouldn't make such a mistake that would be exposed as soon as I asked him. He even forgot to cover up the fight yesterday.

No, Tong, you already knew this a long time ago!!!

You didn't tell me because you wanted to see a joke?!

[Ahem... I thought the host had discovered it and was enjoying it.]

Thanks, that makes me look funnier. I don't need a god's brain at all.

"Ahem, Ji Yu, so are you willing to go to the Dreamland?" Seeing that I was hesitant to speak, Xue Jin couldn't help but said, "For some reasons when I was young, I was permanently blocked from the Dreamland..."

His expression was mysterious, but his meaning was very clear.

If I don't go, no one can save my brother now.

"Oh my god." I sighed. What else could I do? He didn't have any bad intentions. It was just bad luck that he fell into the dreamland.

"I'll take you to find the Dream Maker. We happen to have one in our department. It would be faster if he takes you there."

————————————

To be honest, I didn’t expect that the dream maker was an old man playing chess in the community.

Or the old man who just lost and was cursing at others because they didn't want to play with him.

...I didn't know what to say after witnessing the entire process from losing the game to quarreling and being ostracized.

"Old Liu, long time no see. Come back for work." Xue Jin greeted him skillfully, "Little boy, you're going to the Dreamland."

The old man named Lao Liu looked at me and skillfully rolled up the walnuts in his hand.

"Your unit is now letting such a young child die?"

Xue Jin almost lost his temper at the old man's sharp words, but he managed to hold it in. "He went to rescue someone. His brother accidentally wandered in, and he went to rescue him."

"Oh, I thought you, Old Xue, who looked so decent, had started to behave like a nobody."

"Alright, alright, stop talking nonsense and go, go, go, the kids still have classes tomorrow."

…

How should I put it, when the old man was arguing, I felt that Xue Jin was indeed an old man.

But isn’t this too homely? The image of a mysterious investigator created before is gone.

Then Xue Jin and I followed Uncle Liu to his home. He lived alone and had a cat at home, a pure black cat, which was completely different from the cow cat that was now unconscious in the hospital.

It looks very spiritual.

"Little kid, lie over there." Uncle Liu pointed to the armchair next to him. I did as he said and lay down on the armchair. I watched him light a stick of incense, then use a teapot to make a cup of tea, take a small stool and sit next to me, putting his palms on my eyes.

"Close your eyes," he continued. "Old Xue, when the incense has burned out and we haven't woken up yet, pour that pot of tea on my face."

"Why, can I still wake you up now?" Xue Jin raised his eyebrows.

Uncle Liu scoffed, "Of course not. I thought we should bring some offerings with us on our journey. That's my best tea."

I:……

No, gentlemen, don’t take the road so lightly! ! !

Then everything went black.

Then a white sea appeared before my eyes.

...Who am I?

"Who am I?" the old man next to him also said this.

【Host----】

…

…………

………………Oh oh oh, I remember, this is a dreamland, I am dreaming now, I am here to rescue my brother.

The system is still useful.

[Hmm...though I think it's mainly because of your brain.]

Uncle Liu looked even more confused than me. Just when I was about to remind him, he pulled up his sleeves. Only then did I notice that his arms were covered with black runes. The flesh on his arms was not the dry and tough flesh like that of other old men, but tendon flesh.

...You investigators are all muscular, right?!

"Although I don't remember who you are, I was the one who brought you here. The rest of the journey is up to you." He looked completely different from when he was awake. He looked at me with a wary look. "Did you see those three moons?"

He pointed to the three moons in the sky and said, "Before all three moons set, you must come back here and I will take you out."

As he was speaking, a boat was slowly approaching.

"If you miss this time, you'll be on your own. Remember?"

I nodded. In fact, when I came in and remembered my purpose, I already knew how to get out.

As soon as I wake up——

But I have to hurry and find my brother, the first moon is already moving slowly, and the time is even shorter than I thought.

I stepped onto that ship.

[Ding Ding Ding——Release the mandatory main task: Fantasy Dreamland

Stage 1: Bloodline Guidance

You have the same blood, you are one, you are half, you are destined to be attracted to each other.

Mission Reward: Mysterious Fragment (obtained after completing all the main missions)

Mission 1 Reward: Starry Sky Quilt (this is not its real name, just for your convenience)]

…

So, if I don’t come to this dreamland, this mission won’t be triggered, right?

Is all this in your calculation?

【……】

【Forget it, as long as you are happy. 】

There was nothing on the ship except me as a passenger. It seemed as if it knew my destination. When the first moon was one-third gone, the ship stopped.

I found myself on a tropical island-like landscape filled with bizarre creatures—if they could be called creatures.

I summoned the Book of Omniscience and managed to ignore the black and white color scheme.

I don't know why, but the tropical atmosphere here makes me feel very dangerous.

But my brother is here.

...I'm worried that I'll see a wild brother soon.

Then I walked to a pond, where a humanoid creature was squatting.

It was a being covered entirely in black, with a halo like stardust surrounding it. Some white was mixed in with the pure black form, making it look a bit dazzling. I silently looked at the black and white book in my hand.

...So I said, why did the house suddenly become black and white?

I was glad that I didn’t see the wild brother surrounded by leaves, but now this inhuman brother squatting by the pond playing in the mud is even worse than the wild brother!

I walked over silently. There was no living creature within five meters of my brother. He was squatting there playing in the mud with great concentration.

I squatted down beside him. He turned his head and two holes suddenly appeared on his featureless face. Inside was the familiar starry sky, but now with more golden spots of light.

It looks better than before.

This face really can't be called a face.

"Brother...brother..." An unclear voice sounded in my head. The inhuman Villar seemed to have forgotten to disguise himself as a human and forgot to grow a mouth to speak.

Never mind, his brain is in my body.

I looked into the pool.

It turns out that I look like this too.

I am also just a pure black human figure, but what reassures me is that there are no white impurities on my body. I also don’t have the beautiful starry sky halo like Villar, but there is a golden heart glowing in my chest.

But I finally understood why Uncle Liu was so wary of me just now.

...This doesn't look like a human at all.

Two monsters were reflected in the pool.

"Virar," I called him. "It's time to become human again."

The black monster pressed its forehead against the black and white monster's forehead, and the starry halo surrounded the two monsters.

We became human again.

Bad news, maybe the savage just thought too much.

We were both naked now, only with leaves wrapped around our waists.

…

I should have used my brain. What a mistake!
