The woman in front of her was still wearing the black classical palace dress. She was dignified and elegant, and her long dark green slightly curly hair floated in the air together with the hem of her skirt.
Roger looked around and found nothing.
There is no scene around, no entity, just a void of space.
"Roger, you're here."
This time, Rosniya's voice penetrated Rogge's ears clearly.
"Are you Spider Queen Rosniya?"
Even though he already knew the identity of the other party, Rogge still planned to use this question as a preface.
"it's me."
"What's this dream about? What do you want me to do for you?"
Rosniya just looked at him with a smile and did not answer.
Rogge thought for a moment and asked again, "Are you the Spider Queen Rosnia?"
"It's me." Rosniya replied.
After hearing her answer, Roger thought carefully.
——This Rosnia is not the Spider Queen herself, but a clone of her.
——The clone can only answer simple questions, or only the questions she wants to answer.
——The dream I am falling into now should be created by the clone. The activation condition may be to enter the core area of Twilight Forest.
——The dream is very stable, and Rosniya’s image is also very clear, so there should be no problem restrictions.
With the inference in mind, Rogge first separated the two previous questions and asked, "What is going on in this dream?"
Rosniya still didn't answer.
——Perhaps for her, this issue is not critical at all.
Rogge changed the question, "How long can a dream last?"
"If you want to stop, I will stop."
——It seems that the initiative to terminate the dream is in my hands.
"How can I help you?"
Rosniya didn't answer.
"How should I act?"
no answer.
——It seems that Rosniya’s clone will not give any advice regarding my subjective actions.
Rogge thought for a while and asked: "Who is your opponent?"
"The creatures in the Red Abyss world, you call them strange demons."
——The Red Abyss World... should be the name of the world of strange demons themselves. Helena has never mentioned it to me, and she probably doesn’t know this name either. It seems that this is not the first time Rosniya has encountered a strange demon.
"Have you ever encountered a strange demon before?"
Rosniya did not answer.
Rogge pinched his eyebrows. It was really a headache to meet a clone who couldn't answer questions honestly.
"how are you now?"
No answer.
——Think about it, this clone should be just a phantom left by Rosniya, and will not know the current state of her true body. So what was her purpose of leaving the clone behind and dragging me into the dream?
Rogge thought this and continued to ask, "What's going on in the Spider Kingdom?"
No answer.
"Where are your people?"
"In order to protect them, I used the power of illusion to seal them in the second layer of space."
——The power of illusion and the second level of space are two new words. The power of illusion should be the power activated by Rosniya at the altar. The second floor space is temporarily understood as a safe space.
"Where are you?"
Roger got no answer.
——This shows that Rosniya created this clone after she sealed her people and before she faced the strange demon.
"I will help you rescue your people. Where is the second level of space?"
"Find the Spider Altar and I will let you in."
"Where is the Spider Altar?"
"The center of the entire forest."
"What should I do when I get to the second floor?"
no answer.
Rogge asked some other questions but got no useful information.
After making sure that no key information was missed, Rogge said: "Let me leave the dreamland."
Rosniya nodded slightly to Rogge, then came to him at a speed that was almost teleporting, and hit Rogge's heart with one palm.
Faced with the sudden change, Rogge was very calm because he knew that Rosniya definitely didn't want to hurt him, otherwise the series of questions and answers would have become a joke.
Sure enough, after this slap, there was no pain, no abnormality, and no feeling at all.
Looking at Rosniya's face up close, Rogge felt that her eyebrows were really thick.
Rosniya's clone gradually faded, and finally turned into a bubble-like shadow and disappeared.
In front of Rogge's eyes, the night sky replaced the gray-white space, and the vortex reappeared.
Rogge was sucked into the whirlpool for the second time, and once again experienced the feeling of falling into an abyss.
After an unknown amount of time, Rogge finally felt his body, as if his soul had returned to his body.
As soon as Roger opened his eyes, a drop of strawberry juice fell into his eyes.
"Brother, wake up!" Ofina stuffed the other half of the strawberry into Roger's mouth, quickly rubbed his eyes with her little hands, and then wiped her hands on his clothes.
Rogge sat up from Ofina's lap and rubbed her head lovingly, "How long did I sleep for?"
"More than two hours." Ofina said.
Rogge nodded, it was acceptable.
According to Rogge's feeling, the conversation with Rosniya's clone in the dream did not last more than ten minutes. The time of falling into the abyss twice was uncertain, but it was certainly not as long as two hours.
The flow of time in dreams is inconsistent with reality, but fortunately, it's not too different.
Filia pulled Rogge up and asked, "Rogge, what's going on?"
"It was Rosniya who dragged me into the dream..."
Rogge told everyone the information about going to the center of the Twilight Forest to find the altar. To be on the safe side, he concealed the information about the Red Abyss World, the Power of Illusion, and the Second-Layer Space.
Charles shook his flowing blond hair and said: "Now that you're awake, let's set out quickly. Finish the work early, I still need to be on the front line. Ah, the Pegasus Knights newly formed by your Yanyang family The girls here are really tender."
Filia's face instantly darkened, and she warned him: "Charisman, I advise you not to take advantage of them, otherwise..."
"Okay, okay." Charisman interrupted Filia's threat, "I understand, who made you my favorite Filia? Alas, I shouldn't have said it."
Matilda heard this and said in a disdainful tone: "Hmph, kid, it's better not to worry about Filia as you are. You two are not a good match."
"That's right, no woman in this world is worthy of me." Charisman looked very disappointed.
Ofina's cute big eyes almost rolled to the sky, "Oh, I've seen shameless people before, but I've never seen you so shameless!"
"Haha, little girl, you can barely match me, how about..."
"That's enough." Rogge said coldly, "Don't say these useless words. The mission is important, the enemy is unknown, and time is running out. Everyone is getting nervous."
"lets go."
Before leaving, Rogge suddenly noticed an anomaly and asked, "Do you still feel like the enemy is spying and staring?"
Madeline, who had been in a state of mental stress, nodded immediately, "Yes, after the feeling became stronger, it has not changed."
So does everyone else.
As one of the people who knows Rogge best, Filia guessed why Rogge asked this question, "Rogge, could it be..."
"Well, I can't feel it anymore."
Everyone was silent.
For a long time, Anderson wondered: "What on earth is going on?"
"I don't know, let's go first." Rogge said.
Rogge has a guess, but he doesn’t want to say anything yet.
The group of people headed towards the center of the forest. After another full day, they came to a unique place.
During this period, there were still no enemies, no spiders, no large creatures, and even small insects became fewer and fewer, and in the end there were none.
Everyone seems to have become the only living thing in this area, but the prying eyes and hostility still exist and have never disappeared or weakened.
Along the way, Roger discovered that spider webs were not always there.
Large spider webs have an obvious aggregation phenomenon. Except for the gathering areas, they are very scattered.
The small spider webs on the ground were also wide and narrow, which allowed him to further confirm that the small spider webs were similar to roads.
If the entire core area is the territory of the Spider Kingdom, then the places where large spider webs gather are villages and cities, and the city in front of them is the capital of the Spider Kingdom.
The reason why Rogge was so sure was that this city actually had city walls, and most of the houses were no longer just spider webs, but had architectural structures added to them.
In other words, this city is more prosperous and larger than other cities.
Some houses even look like classical human houses. People have gone in to visit and found that the structures inside are different from human houses, but they are not much different.
This phenomenon must be caused by the spider's habits and the difference in body size from humans.
As everyone was walking in the city, Rogge felt a sense of déjà vu.
He had seen the scene here in his first dream.
There were three forks in the road ahead, and everyone was wondering how to make a decision. Rogge kept walking and said directly: "Turn left."
Matilda and Anderson cast doubtful glances, while Filia, Ofina, Madeleine and Lunt followed without hesitation.
Rogge didn't explain too much, because the sense of déjà vu became stronger and stronger, and the originally diluted background scene in the dream became increasingly clear.
The roads in this city were complicated. Rogge led everyone to turn left and right, and walked for about an hour until they arrived at an inner city.
After passing through the inner city wall, everyone found that the houses here were more advanced and the roads were wider and more tidy.
At the end of the road, there stood a solemn and beautiful palace, which was exactly the palace that appeared in Rogge's dream.
The palace located in the center of the inner city must be Rosniya's palace, but that is not everyone's destination.
What they were looking for was the altar.
Rogge led everyone to move forward. After approaching the palace, they could see the details of the palace clearly.
The palace is made of unknown black material, and the spiderweb-like carvings on it are very mysterious, making the palace look ancient and illusory.
A beam of moonlight came in, and Rogge was startled.
The palace and moonlight perfectly coincided with his dream.
Unknowingly, he was exactly where he was in his dream!
Rogge looked around, and the positions of Filia and Ofina were exactly the same as in the dream.
The most peculiar thing is that Ofina took out the photo-taking device and took pictures just like in the dream.
Rogge looked at the palace door. Following the direction of the dream, after Ofina took the photo, Rosniya opened the door and walked out.
But now, the door is closed and shows no sign of opening.
