Chapter 286: Dream
The acting of a Nightmare is great… So, this is a dream? That's right, if it wasn't a dream, how could there be no empty seats in the Harvest Church? Priest Noris probably only dared to think of such a good thing in his dreams.
However, I was pulled into a dream without realizing it… When did this happen?
After carefully recalling for a moment, he immediately discovered something disharmonious.
For example, why didn't he take advantage of the night to "fly" over when the hotel he was at was only a block away from the Church of Abundance?
And that rental carriage stopped in front of him the moment he stepped out… Of course, what was even more contradictory was that the carriage driver didn't charge him any fees!
At this moment, when the woman with long brown hair saw the look of enlightenment on Ebner's face, she said with a smile, "It looks like you've already sensed it… That's right, I used a Sealed Artifact to pull everyone in the nearby streets into this dream. Heh heh, the negative effects of the mask came too suddenly. In order to not cause a huge commotion, I can only use this method to temporarily satisfy its little 'hobby.'
"Besides, this will also help the patient you brought with you… His Beyonder characteristic digestion was terrible previously… No, it can be said that he almost didn't digest it… With this environment, letting him act appropriately is very helpful in the treatment."
At this point, the woman with long brown hair glanced at Ebner and continued with a teasing tone, "I sent a carriage to invite you over to ask about the exact situation of your mask… But you seemed to have the ability to move in the dream. You actually maintained your lucidity…"
The reason why I can maintain my lucidity in the dream is most likely related to the White Eye… However, I can't compare it to Klein. Not only can he maintain his lucidity, but he can also immediately sense that he's in a dream…
Of course, this is also related to experience. If I encounter more, I can probably tell.
Ebner thought for a moment, but he didn't continue on the topic. Instead, he asked, "Even if the residents nearby are muddle-headed, having such a ridiculous dream would still leave some impression… I'm afraid that they will bear a grudge against the Church of Abundance. How will Priest Norris proselytize in the future?"
"They're all believers of the Storm. It's impossible for them to accept the teachings of Earth Mother," the brown-haired lady said as a matter of course with her eyes curved.
Are you implying that these are already "sunken" capital, so "trash" is using them?
Ebner was speechless. He felt that Miss Sloth, who was suspected to be from the Psychology Alchemists, seemed to have some warped humor…
How could such a personality be taught to such a "simple" daughter like Miss Judi?
As Ebner lampooned, he asked again, "But with so many people having the same ridiculous dream, what would they do if they were to report it to the Church of Storms?"
"You seem to be thinking about something impolite…" The woman with long brown hair narrowed her eyes. Then, she pointed at Dunn who was still giving an impromptu speech in front of the podium, and said with a smile, "That's right! If you aren't afraid, how can you show the effects of a Nightmare?
"As for reporting it to the Church of Storms? That's even more impossible. They won't remember where they were frightened."
Don't remember… So that's how it is. I nearly forgot that the lady in front of me is a demigod of the Spectator pathway. She might very well be a Sequence 4 Manipulator. "She" is good at "Alterating" the consciousness of ordinary people in dreams.
Nodding slightly, Ebner organized his words and described the negative effects of the Clown Mask in detail. Finally, he said, "I was planning on retrieving it and sealing it."
The brown-haired lady held her right elbow with her left hand and pinched her chin with her right hand. After some thought, she said after some deliberation, "If it's possible, I hope you can lend me this mask… Or perhaps, lend it to my patient for some time.
"Firstly, as you know, his current identity is a little inappropriate. He needs some disguises, and the Clown mask is suitable for him.
Secondly, when I was giving him preliminary treatment, I realized that this patient's personality is too gentle. He's unable to become a true Nightmare… The negative effects of this mask can help him. Be it a Nightmare or a Midnight Poet, it's very suitable.
As for the "side effects" of splitting a new personality, she didn't mind it. After all, to a demigod Psychiatrist, splitting a new personality was nothing.
After seriously considering her request, he felt that there was nothing wrong with agreeing to it. The mask was of little use to him now, not to mention that she had shipped over the "milk cow" he wanted from afar. He had to return the favor.
"Sure…" Ebner first nodded before exhorting solemnly, "However, you have to be careful of the mask backlash. 'It has a very nasty personality."
"Don't worry. Although I'm not as good as a High-Sequence Beyonder of the Corpse Collector pathway when it comes to communicating with a living Sealed Artifact, I have the means to slightly modify some of its ideas," the woman with long brown hair said with a smile as she covered her mouth.
Are you planning on hypnotizing the Sealed Artifact? There's actually such an operation?
Just as Ebner was dumbfounded, the brown-haired lady continued, "But I can't just borrow your things without expressing anything. Otherwise, if Judi finds out, she'll definitely blame me for being embarrassed in front of her friends."
I don't think you have the concept of "losing face" at all…
As Ebner lampooned inwardly, he heard Judi's mother say,
"Yes, I have two choices here.
"First, I heard that you're already a Polymath. You definitely need to analyze and learn some practical abilities. I can demonstrate to you all the abilities of the Spectator pathway's Sequence 9 to Sequence 4… Of course, how much you can learn will depend on your abilities."
You know that I'm a Polymath? There aren't many people who know of this information… So, Ma'am, you really are valued by Lilith… You should be the snitch she sent to the Psychology Alchemists.
With this in mind, Ebner asked without batting an eyelid, "What's the second choice?"
"Heh heh, the second choice is a complete manuscript of a secret technique. It should be helpful to you after you become a Mysticism Magister," the brown-haired lady replied with a chuckle.
"What kind of 'secret technique' is it?" Ebner asked curiously.
"Its name is Solar Eating. It comes from the Sequence 5 Astronomer of the Savant pathway, Eclipsing. It can create an environment that blots out the sun and pure darkness through a simple ritual," the brown-haired lady described the effects of a "secret technique."
Eclipses… Astronomer… I remember that this Sequence was called Astrologer in ancient times. The Emperor had once mentioned in his diary that only after becoming an Astronomer did he have Beyonder powers that came under his control…
Hmm, could this "combat-type Beyonder power" be the effects of various astronomical phenomena?
If the "solar corrosion" is to blot out the sun and create darkness, then the "lunar corrosion" is to block the crimson moon and reduce one's spirituality, right?
What about a meteor shower? Don't tell me it really summoned a fireball from the sky? Did 0-08 use the same principle to smash Klein with a meteorite in the future?
After letting his thoughts wander for a while, Ebner organized his thoughts and weighed the pros and cons for a moment before finally making a decision. "I choose to observe the abilities."
He had been eyeing the powers of a Spectator for a long time, but unfortunately, there had been no suitable person or item to "fleece" him. Now that a Spectator demigod had taken the initiative to approach him, he naturally didn't wish to miss the opportunity.
As for the manuscript of "solar eating," although it was pretty good, it wasn't very useful for the present.
"You should be on the train tomorrow afternoon, right? I'll demonstrate it to you when you come tomorrow morning." The lady with long brown hair nodded first. Then, she turned her head to look at Dunn, who had finished his speech, 'looking embarrassed. She smiled and said, "Alright, that's it for tonight. I wish everyone a good dream."
As her clear voice fell, the scene around her shattered. Ebner suddenly sat up, only to realize that he was still on the bed in the hotel room.
It's no wonder the emperor always says to be careful of the Spectator…
Heh heh, her goal of borrowing the Clown mask isn't as simple as she said…
However, since she's someone Earth Mother trusts, she wouldn't harm Dunn.
…
The next morning, Ebner arrived at the Harvest Church. He first observed the demonstrations from Judi's mother and chatted with Dunn, who seemed a little uneasy after seeing him. Then, he went to the steam locomotive station and took the first train in the afternoon to reach Tingen before the sunset.
This time, he didn't disguise himself and used his true appearance to rent a room at the hotel.
After a simple shower, Ebner was about to take a break when he suddenly felt his mind go adrift. However, he immediately woke up.
Having had the experience of forcing himself into a dream, he immediately knew who had pulled him into a dream again!
