Chapter 144: Power works miracles
"Okay, you'll scare Almar like this."
Seeing Augla and the others looking eagerly forward to it, Irene couldn't stand it anymore and stepped forward to stop them.
Amar is the name of the elf girl.
"Ahem... let's go away then."
Augla coughed awkwardly twice, pulled Alpha back two steps and made room for him.
But he still pretended to listen attentively, just like a curious baby eavesdropping on the noise in Uncle Wang's room next door.
fortunately.
After two days of getting along, Amar is no longer so scared.
After secretly glancing around, he finally whispered, "Lady Weaver is the master of dreams. No one has ever seen her true appearance, but I can be sure that she is the Dream Weaver, but..."
"But what?"
Everyone's curiosity was instantly aroused and they came closer again.
Unexpectedly.
Amar seemed to have thought of something terrible. He suddenly shook his head continuously, and shrank into a corner with fear in his eyes.
"It's different, it's different from what the elders said... All I saw was a nightmare, an endless nightmare... When I woke up, my body had become like this... I'm really not a monster, please don't lock me up..."
Seeing that she was showing signs of collapse again, the older elf quickly hugged her.
"It's okay, it's okay, we are here."
Perhaps it was this comfort that gave her strength.
Although his body was still shaking slightly, he did not collapse and go crazy like before.
As for Rhodes and his companions, they heard a key piece of information.
"nightmare?"
Rhodes frowned.
This was the second time he had heard the word.
And the first time.
This was exactly what the indigenous people called him, the little thing and Kaba when they were in Dreamland before.
Is there any connection between them?
While thinking.
Amar gradually recovered.
"Sorry……"
She gritted her teeth and tried hard to overcome the fear in her heart.
"It's okay. If you can't say it, don't force yourself." Rhodes said with a smile.
Amar did not answer immediately, but grabbed the bed board and trembled for a long time, and then remained silent for a long time.
Finally, as if he mustered up the courage, he slowly spoke:
"The elder... once told me that the Dream Weaver controls the dreams of all souls. Anyone who sees her will have the happiest dream in the world."
"But... when I saw her, I only had nightmares, the most horrific nightmares in the world. It was completely different from what the elders said. Everything was the opposite..."
The other way around?
Rhodes was shocked after hearing this.
Suddenly I remembered that everything in Dreamland is also the opposite.
The black soil turned into pure land, reality and dreams were reversed, and they became nightmares and monsters in the eyes of the indigenous residents.
Now another one suddenly appears, still retaining consciousness and life despite being contaminated by the black soil.
No need to think about it.
There is a great connection between the two things!
And the only ones who can achieve this level are probably demigods.
The only living demigod!
"It seems that I have to find a chance to enter the Dreamland."
Rhodes thought silently in his heart.
Whether it is for the fourth demigod mark or to find out the truth about the Dream Forest, the Dreamland is a place he must explore.
He had a feeling.
This will be a major breakthrough.
The only problem is how to sneak in quietly.
After all, as soon as he stepped into that area, the land beneath his feet would be contaminated, and it would be too easy to expose his whereabouts.
If we encounter a level 5 or 6 monster while sneaking in, it would be tantamount to committing suicide. We still have to think carefully.
Maybe we can start with this matter.
Thinking of this, Rhode asked, "Do you still remember what the Dream Weaver looks like? Or what characteristics does it have?"
"No." Amar shook his head. "The form of the Dream Weaver is determined by the heart of the viewer. The stronger the heart, the stronger the Dream Weaver will be. No one knows her true appearance, except the Moon Goddess."
"Can this still happen?"
Everyone looked at each other in surprise when they heard this.
The stronger your heart is, the more powerful you see. Then, isn’t what God sees also God?
This demigod, who is as famous as the Tree God, Dragon God and Archdruid, is truly weird and even incredible in every way.
But one thing is certain.
She is still alive!
And it can make people polluted by black soil!
This also made them more curious, and they asked quickly:
"After you were infected by the black soil, did you feel any changes? Like wanting to bite people, losing your mind, etc."
"This...not really."
Amar recalled and said, "The only change is that I can walk on the black soil, but it will consume a lot of energy and the pollution will spread slowly. I... I won't really turn into a black beast, will I?"
This was the problem she was most worried about. Her body, which had originally calmed down, began to tremble slightly again, and her eyes were full of fear.
Erin turned her head and looked at Rhodes for help, hoping that he could find a way to save her people.
"Have you ever taken her outside the house?" Rod asked suddenly.
"Outside?"
Irene was a little confused.
But she reacted immediately, and her eyes suddenly lit up: "I almost forgot! Come on, let's go outside and take a look!"
After that, he took Amar out of the wooden house.
It was already approaching night, and the blackness of the sky gradually took over.
However, there were three crescent moons floating in the sky above the woods, and the soft moonlight fell on the entire forest, including Amar.
Followed by.
A miracle happened.
The black color that had already spread to the shoulders gradually faded away and was completely suppressed by the moonlight.
Although the speed was slow, it still excited Amar, Irene and others.
"It's gone! The pollution is gone!"
"It's really possible!"
Amar stared at the slowly disappearing blackness with eyes wide open, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably, as if everything was a dream. She raised her head and looked around with trembling eyes.
Finally she confirmed that this was the origin of the dream she had been looking for!
"Okay, I'll leave her to you guys, Erin, from now on. When you have time, walk under the moon more often. She should be able to recover soon."
Rhodes did not disturb them.
After throwing down a sentence, he hurried out of the woods, stepped on the black soil, and carefully felt the flow of energy on it.
only.
A puzzled look quickly appeared on his face.
"Is this really the dark element? Why can't I feel it?"
According to the information learned during this period, the property of black soil to devour everything is indeed the same as that of dark elements.
Alpha also said that the aura of black soil is very similar to that of dark elements.
but.
But he could not sense the existence of any element at all.
It was like a huge mouth of the abyss, constantly swallowing all the energy that appeared above, including life.
"Master Rhodes, what are you doing?"
Augla and Alpha came over and asked curiously.
“I’m feeling the black soil.”
Rhode returned to the forest and said thoughtfully, "I have tried many times, but I still cannot sense the existence of dark elements. Logically speaking, all elements should have entities in the spiritual plane."
"Are you suspecting that the root cause of the destruction of the Dream Forest is not that simple?" Alpha was sharp-minded and guessed his thoughts immediately.
"Almost." Rhodes nodded. "But I can't see any difference yet. What about you? Have you found anything?"
"Don't look at me. I'm a warrior, but I don't have any talent for magic." Augla shrugged.
"I'm good at fire..." Alpha looked helpless.
have to.
Bai asked.
Two more unreliable guys.
Rhodes rolled his eyes and was too lazy to study the mess anymore.
Because in his view, no matter what the problem or conspiracy, as long as his strength is strong enough, it will not be a problem.
If the second order can't solve the problem, then go to the third order. If the third order can't solve the problem, then go to the fourth order...
Anyway, he just needs to use his strength and leave the rest to miracles.
No matter how big the problem is, there will always be a solution.
Instead of going through so many twists and turns, you might as well plant a few more trees.
"Let's go, let's go back and plant all the seeds first. We have so much land to expand this time, so we'll have to be busy."
After saying that, Rhodes put everything behind him and went back to arrange various planting tasks, ready to start work tomorrow morning.
……
And at this time.
Compared to the hustle and bustle in the woods.
The Crescent Canyon, far away on the black soil plain, has a solemn atmosphere.
Because in the evening, they welcomed a group of uninvited guests, a group of human merchants from the outskirts of Black Land.
“Is this Crescent City?”
"How dare you call such a small place a city?"
Outside the city wall, several boys and girls looked at the dilapidated wall made of huge stones in front of them with disdain.
The rest of the team looked curiously at everything around them, as if they were here for tourism.
And that is indeed the case.
Because judging from their appearance alone, they are much more respectable than the residents of Crescent City.
Not only are his clothes bright and shiny, but he also doesn't look thin at all. You can tell at a glance that he hasn't been hungry for many meals.
The guards on the city wall's eyes sparkled, as if they were looking at walking chickens.
"Humph!"
A cold snort.
A stern-faced man stood up in the lead. His terrifying aura swept around, shocking the guards.
"Level 5!"
"And there's more than one!"
"Hurry back and report to the leader!"
Amid exclamations, the guards hurried down the city wall to inform the four leaders.
soon.
Brent and his four companions hurried over, opened the city gate and came outside.
When they saw that the team had more than 20 people, but had four fifth-level and ten fourth-level ones, they were all secretly shocked.
"May I ask how many of you are?"
Brent, who was also a human, spoke first.
It's just a team, but its strength is almost comparable to that of their entire Crescent City. No matter how arrogant he is, he dare not neglect them in the slightest.
The other three leaders had different expressions. The sudden appearance of so many powerful people from the human race might not necessarily be a good thing for them.
However, they did not show it and also went forward to greet and ask questions, at least to find out the other party's identity and purpose first.
"We are a group of traveling merchants from Liberty City." The leading man stepped forward and said.
city of freedom?
A traveling merchant team?
Actually doing business on the black soil?
Brent and his companions were secretly shocked and looked at each other.
Whichever it was, they had never heard of it in decades here.
It is enough to show that the other party comes from a very extraordinary place, at least not comparable to their Crescent City.
"Please sit inside and discuss in detail."
With Crescent City's strength, even if they could stop the opponent, they would definitely suffer heavy losses. Moreover, this team does not look like they have any ill intentions.
and so.
After much consideration.
They opened the city gate and let the team in.
"Quite sensible."
Another fifth-level elder in the team murmured in a low voice and smiled contemptuously.
A small place is just a small place. I thought that there would be some strong people guarding this gathering place deep in the black soil.
Now it seems that being able to produce four level five is already the limit, how can we have the courage to keep them out?
that's it.
Under the curious gaze of the residents.
A group of more than twenty merchants entered the city and were taken to the meeting hall by Brent and his colleagues.
