Speaking of "projection"...
A complex emotion flickered in Jiang Cheng's eyes.
Where will the "projection" in the Sakura Kingdom Dream dimension be hidden?
After some thought, Jiang Cheng realized he was completely clueless. Starting to search would just be like a headless fly bumping around aimlessly. Rather than wasting time like this, he decided to rest for a while and get his mental energy back before getting down to business.
Upon realizing this, Jiang Cheng's mind stirred.
The next second, a graceful figure appeared beside him, and particles shimmering with metallic light slowly combined together, piecing together the illusory Gu Qingwan into a physical entity.
"Whoosh."
A flash of silver light appeared, and Gu Qingwan's fair hand rested on Jiang Cheng's body.
She gently traced her fingers across his shoulder, smiled, and sat down in the slightly worn chair directly opposite Jiang Cheng. She casually crossed her long, stocking-clad legs, tilted her head slightly, and looked at the man before her: "How was it, boss? How was your experience today?"
In fact, Gu Qingwan was very interested in Jiang Cheng's experiences before entering the Dream Dimension, but she was afraid that if she asked, it would remind Jiang Cheng of that extremely painful experience, so she kept quiet about it.
If Jiang Cheng is willing to talk, she will definitely have a chance to hear it.
She's not in a hurry.
"The experience was so-so, but..."
Jiang Cheng leaned back thoughtfully, resting his aching back against the cold wall. He carefully removed the various hidden weapons from his body and arranged them on the table. As he did so, he slowly said, "I think this dream world will be very interesting."
"oh?"
Gu Qingwan hadn't seen the gleam and excitement in Jiang Cheng's eyes for a long time, so she asked curiously, "Boss, what has piqued your interest so much?"
Jiang Cheng first pointed to the hidden weapons on the table: "As you can see, in this dream world, I am not a suicide soldier who wins purely by physical strength. On the contrary, I am more like an anomaly among suicide soldiers. I rely on strategy and external objects to gain the upper hand in every fight."
He paused for a moment, then the deeper meaning in his eyes became even more apparent: "Moreover, I've roughly guessed what this world means to me right now."
Gu Qingwan simply gazed at Jiang Cheng quietly, like an extremely dutiful listener.
Although they only need to communicate once a year to understand each other's thoughts, Jiang Cheng still prefers to speak. He can't quite explain this somewhat awkward and complicated feeling. Fortunately, when facing Gu Qingwan, he doesn't need to offer any explanation.
"This world should be a test of my mindset."
Upon hearing Jiang Cheng's words, Gu Qingwan's confusion deepened: "State of mind? Boss, what you mean by state of mind..."
"In the main plane, I was a super scientific genius. However, even with the Heart of the Universe, my physique was only barely on par with ordinary people, and I couldn't even surpass them by much. It can be said that I became a leader entirely through my brain, without adding any physical strength. Although my situation and identity have changed, in essence, it is basically the same as the Sakura Dream plane where I am now."
After finishing speaking, Jiang Cheng added one last sentence: "Back in the dark room, that blonde girl said that I survived entirely by relying on external things, and that was probably what she meant?"
Gu Qingwan nodded thoughtfully, glanced at Jiang Cheng's slightly hunched shoulders, then turned around and sat on the dirty bed, reaching out to massage the sore spots on his shoulders and giving his stiff back a good thump.
"Um……"
Jiang Cheng closed his eyes comfortably, enjoying it all: "Much better, I can put a little more effort into the right side."
While massaging his shoulders, Gu Qingwan asked, "So, boss, now that you've confirmed the significance of this dream dimension, what do you plan to do next?"
"I don't know, let's take it one step at a time."
Under Gu Qingwan's massage, Jiang Cheng's energy and spirit relaxed considerably. He murmured, "Many things are still unclear. Even if I knew the general meaning of the Dream Dimension, it wouldn't be of much use. I still need more clues. I can only adapt to the situation."
Suddenly, he opened his eyes and looked at the sunset by the window with a hint of anticipation: "Speaking of which, I am actually looking forward to the life of a death squad member, or rather, an assassin."
After all, these are all experiences that we never had the chance to have in the main plane, so we'll just treat them as dungeons to play.
I don't think any man dislikes the sense of accomplishment he gets when he beats a game, right?
After sensing Jiang Cheng's thoughts, Gu Qingwan simply smiled. Just as she was about to say something, she suddenly turned to look at the door and stood up nervously: "Someone's here, at the door!"
The next second, Gu Qingwan instantly shattered into numerous pale blue molecules, which then merged into Jiang Cheng's body like an embrace.
Before Jiang Cheng could react, a loud thud echoed throughout the courtyard as the door was kicked open.
"Bang!"
A tall woman rushed in through the door and headed straight for Jiang Cheng's laboratory.
Jiang Cheng stared at her calmly, concealing all his doubts, and simply sat quietly on the bed.
If the situation is unclear, you must not act rashly.
The woman wore a large, black, upright eboshi hat with a wooden crown on top. Although not exquisite, it was clear that she cherished it greatly, having worn it for a long time and keeping every corner spotless. She wore a floor-length, bright red dress with a pure white lining and a white gauze overlay, making her look incredibly beautiful. This was the most common attire for Japanese maids in ancient times.
