Uriel broke the thin ice in front of his eyes and could finally see his surroundings clearly. But the world is still blurry, and everything seems to have lost its outline. A shadow fell over him.
"Is it gone?" The apprentice subconsciously stretched out his hand.
The messenger pulled him up. "Will come back."
"I thought you killed..." Uriel thought about a word that could describe the previous shadow. "That thing."
"I hope so too, but this can only delay it. Parsur's ritual has been usurped by Him. If the knife is drawn, He will come. In the original ritual, I sent her soul back to the body." Bai Zhizhi glanced at him and said, "He just needs to 'return'."
"Then what if we don't care about it?" Uriel reluctantly understood. The steps of mystical rituals are symbolic and should not be taken lightly.
"Whose voice did you hear?"
The topic jumps too quickly. "Uh, Lady Saint."
"She was the one I heard at that time. The moon in the dream is too far from reality." The messenger told him, "It can only create illusions."
"Is it really an illusion?"
"You'd better take it for granted. You'll be deceived if you listen to mysterious words."
"confuse?"
"Personally, if you were not here this time, I would have to abandon the ritual. But regardless of it, the hallucination will follow."
Like a shadow. Uriel couldn't help but wonder, what would this feel like? Probably mental torture that is different from physical pain. The rituals of the Broken Moon are not easy to escape. But... "In Kamaria, the time York and I broke in. That altar... was also the divine descending ceremony of Broken Moon?"
"That's right."
He seemed to really wake up. Uriel thought to himself. He had no unnecessary emotions, and what happened just now did not leave a trace on him. It seems like that's really what happened. Uriel had a problem, but he knew better than to mention Parsur. "So can you hear it now...?"
"No. I was very conscious at the time. The tower has measures to deal with the divine attack, which is enough to resist the mysterious invasion."
Although the parchment didn't respond, Uriel was still very suspicious. Nowadays, he has a certain understanding of astrology. Kamaria is a mysterious place where even the Star Gap is inaccessible. The messenger still broke in with the help of the Elf Gold Cup. "I didn't see any measures." I didn't mention the previous fight against the Holy Knights, and later there were no reinforcements like there were at sea. Most of them are fishy.
"You say so, I am the measure."
Uriel blinked. "What?"
"I will handle all the divine descent involving the Broken Moon." Joey replied, "Others, including the people in the astronomy room, don't understand this."
It seems not difficult to understand. If the messenger had already come into contact with God's Descendants before the War of Dawn, it would undoubtedly be the best choice to leave the relevant matters to him. Even most astrologers don't understand the Broken Moon.
He even dreams about it. The debris on the ground has not disappeared, but mist has appeared around the edges. Uriel noticed changes in the world. The dream world originates from memory, but the clues revealed are connected with reality. There is no doubt about its authenticity. Sauron didn't know, just because few people knew about it. "I'm sure the prophet is not among them." Only he can make a decision and hide the destiny gathering for Joey.
Bai Zhizhi nodded.
"Then he..." Does he know the secret that you are the Nameless One? But Uriel didn't dare to ask. It’s better not to mention this matter yet. "Will we encounter Broken Moon again? Is there no way to completely solve him? After all, what is Berti?"
"natural phenomenon."
Uriel felt that he had heard the same answer, but the key was that the question was different. "Give me some time, you know, this statement is difficult to understand."
"You have plenty of time." The messenger said, "It takes time for God to descend."
"The next order pressure drop begins, right?" Thinking about it carefully, many questions emerged after the end of Kamaria's adventure.
"You know a lot of things." The messenger said, "Who told you?"
Fingers tightened. Uriel knew that if Sauron used the ring as a pretext at this time, this guy would definitely sever ties with him. "I...I went to Zangwill before. The church has a large number of related books."
The messenger stepped on the shattered frost. The footsteps gradually approached, and Uriel felt an unspeakable silence. The confused voice was no longer there, but he became more and more nervous. "For you, they are all too early. Otherwise, the records in the tower will be more detailed, and there is no need to look far away. What do you think of this matter, Sauron?"
Ring plays dead without thinking.
"It's not here. This is a dream after all, and you can't carry mysterious items freely." Uriel swallowed. He had no confidence in lying. "Speaking of dreams, why don't we leave first..."
"What brought you here?"
Of course I'm following you. "It's the Book of Oaths. The connection between the Bible pulled me into the dream. After all, this dream relies on the 'Confessions' to exist." He took it out. The messenger's eyes obviously caught sight of the parchment. "Then it depends on your badge. Do you understand dreams and anchors? Its function..."
"I can see that." The messenger interrupted him again, "Did you take it back?"
"I don't know what's going on." Uriel held the Silver Song Knight's badge in his hand and looked at it intently. "But people do see dream creations. How strange."
"The dream of the Scroll of Oath is passive, so is this thing?"
It's over now. "Well, it doesn't sound impossible... Oops!" Uriel's premonition came true. The messenger grabbed his shoulder and quickly took the ring. Don't blame me for not covering it up for you. The apprentice wisely gave up the struggle. Now and then he regretted waking Joey up.
The Night Whispering Ring was honestly held in the palm of Bai Zhizhi's hand, and he accepted the master's question at the risk of shutting down and restarting: "You let him go to the temple?"
"It's a long story...it was the representative of the Council of Light who contacted the tower and asked the Prophet to send support to analyze the harm of the elemental tide." Sauron knew everything and said, "Uriel accepted the mission with honor."
"Why are you looking for him? Where are all the astrologers in the astronomy room?"
Hearing this, Uriel wanted to speak, but the instructor held his shoulders and turned him around. The apprentice quickly shut up.
"The Prophet took this as a graduation test and awarded Uriel the position of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs"
Thankfully, there was only a frown from the messenger regarding the Foreign Office position. "What did he analyze?"
"The tide of order will lead to frequent mysterious disasters, and the return of various elemental realms..." Sauron wrote a large block of characters, "In short, it is the same old thing. At most, let him repeat the prophecy of the Messenger of Destiny." Anyway, as long as the Destiny Assembly sends a messenger, the agent will be satisfied and believe that the temptation has been answered. It never hurts to be more vigilant. Of course, the Tower hopes that the Alliance of Order will be on standby to make the astronomy room much more relaxed. The dispatch of a messenger shows the seriousness. Uriel also breathed a sigh of relief as he saw his responses flowing fluently.
"Are you still in the church now?"
"..."
"explain."
"Still in Eastman..." Uriel replied bravely. But the messenger didn't believe it at all. "Ouch!"
"We entered the dreamland in Anthoros to avoid the pursuit of the Church of Gaia and the Black Knight," the ring confessed loyally. "This kid won't listen to advice and has to come here."
"Hey!"
The messenger seemed surprised: "A prophet?"
"Absolutely not," the ring assured, "the tower did not provide any assistance for his disobedience." The fall of order is coming, and the prophet's prophecy could have protected him... I tried my best, master, and I even told him the prophecy! but"
"It didn't work?"
The ring fell silent. The messenger threw it back to Uriel, who almost missed it. Seeing the rune brush dimming, the apprentice could only force himself to calm down.
"You don't belong here, Uriel." Joey let go. But even if he was angry, the apprentice couldn't tell it from his expression.
"I'm sorry, I just want to know... I want to understand..." Uriel couldn't continue. Regardless, I was snooping into someone else's privacy without their permission. There is no more egregious behavior than this. He shouldn't have done this. "I'm so sorry. I'm really... I'm so terrible." The apprentice looked downcast, waiting for the instructor's rebuke.
"No worse than I was before."
Uriel blinked. "At the beginning?"
"Didn't you see everything?" the messenger asked. "Anyway, it's time for you to go back. The Confessions will help you stop your enemies. The deeper you get involved with the Bible, the harder it will be to leave here."
"Bible?"
"Confessions," the messenger said displeasedly, "are you my echo?"
"But..." Sooner or later, you have to confess. "I also brought someone here. She is Ms. Mabel Magdalen. After all, this is a joint dreamland. I can only fix myself through anchor points and cannot change the process." The apprentice explained, "Ms. Mabel is very concerned about the dream update." There is a way.”
Bai Zhizhi was obviously unprepared for this. He frowned and looked at the apprentice: "Who?"
"Ms. Mabel Magdalen," Uriel said shamefully, "I asked her for help. But believe me, Joey, I didn't let her see your note..."
"You should say this to your face." A familiar voice interrupted the apprentice. Mabel Magdalen stepped out of the fog. "You promised in your dream not to reveal my existence to him, Uriel, but you failed." She tugged at her cloak. "You were not like this in Shimmering Forest. It seems that the latter situation is more reliable."
Uriel didn't expect her to show up: "I didn't promise you."
"Of course, you promise not to let me meet the enemy." The elf lady waved her hand, and the dream began to change. "Look."
Uriel opened his eyes wide and turned to look at Joey. But the messenger's body gradually faded, and wisps of pale smoke emitted. Eventually, his outline disappeared, leaving only a blurry shadow. There is a strange smell in the air. The apprentice stumbled back, almost slipping on the ice. "How...? When...?"
"Didn't you say it yourself? This is the joint dreamland of all holders of the Confessions." Ms. Mabel did not approach, she kept a distance from the apprentice. "After the ice breaks, the dream no longer belongs to your mentor. He has no relevant memory and is probably in a coma or other unconscious state in reality. Maybe he was dreaming of another dream at the time."
"But he asked me... did I think he would ask me?"
"You were also one of the holders, Uriel. The Confessions are very perceptive. Whatever you think, your dreams will come true. For most beginners, it is gradually deepened by the subconscious mind, and in turn passes through the impression. It strengthens the subconscious mind." The elf lady shrugged, "This is almost an inevitable mistake."
"I can't believe it!" Uriel subconsciously clenched the parchment. "This is an endless cycle."
"It doesn't matter. When you become Kong Jing, you can get rid of the subconscious 'environment'."
Sauron was right, it was too early to talk about this. Uriel has just become a high ring. "Then how do I get rid of manipulation? Should I trust you? Or are you just a phantom projected by a dream based on my thoughts?"
Mabel showed no concern. "Relax. Dreamweaver can anchor yourself, and you can distinguish between dreams and reality. It's easy to cover yourself up, as long as you don't interfere... Oh, your anchor is the key figure in the dream. No wonder you are being tricked in turn. ”
It turned out to be a false alarm, Uriel thought to himself. After Mabel reminded him, the apprentice always felt that his mentor would cause trouble for him. But now after such an experience, even if the messenger blamed him after returning, he felt that it was not so terrible. This is the result of my deep dream. I'll accept it. "It seems that my subconscious is capable of excellent self-questioning and self-answering." He laughed at himself.
"I didn't say this was your dream, Uriel."
The apprentice frowned: "Whose dream is this?"
"Someone who is not aware of my existence." Mabel Magdalen stared at the shadow of "Joy", "but knows your affairs very well. You mentioned the Holy Church, right?"
The heavy real crisis was once again before his eyes, and Uriel drew out his sword with a clang. Although he didn't bring a sword, in the dream, everything was no problem. He already knew the answer: "A starless night." No wonder Ms. Mabel came all the way to remind me.
After entering Moniantoros, the Order of the Unknowns has been controlling his itinerary, and the Black Knights even took advantage of it and stole another Bible. The matter has come to this, and Uriel cannot undo it. He never thought about meeting each other in his dream. But since when?
"For God's sake," the apprentice muttered, "Then where did Joey go? Did he leave the dreamland?"
"I guess he reset his dream."
"Reset?"
"Haven't found it yet? Your mentor is not willing to recall the subsequent plot. He only wants this part." Needless to say, the apprentice thought to himself. "Just when I walked to Mortus, there were four corrections in the middle. In the end, he moved directly to the Black City and let me arrive in Malandeno." Mabel said unhappily, "Although I haven't seen Millennium The real appearance of the former City of Auroville, but it was restored quite similar to what it was like. By the way, I also heard the Demon Emperor talking to the 'Second Truth'. It's really unbelievable."
Uriel remembered when he first arrived in Mortus. Hitarian left through the Black Knight's anchor, and the latter slaughtered the free riders in pursuit. He met Joey's eyes and came to life the next moment. Recalling the details, I should have understood at that time... The next time Hitarian met him, it seemed that they were all in Mortus, which was untouched by war.
"That's what happened. When I think about it, no, I'm sure that the anchor point of the Black Knight is the ash tree." The clues were connected and the situation gradually became clear. "He wanted to go back to reality! But I pulled him into the depths, Joey's dream. Here, the memories continued to unfold, and the Black Knight's anchor was destroyed."
"A clever trick," Mabel commented.
"But I didn't realize it." So Uriel allowed the memory to unfold, leading to Parsur's death. At this moment, Joey's memory ends, and the Black Knight can use the reset to find the anchor point and wake up. "What is going on in the joint dream? I thought everyone was in the same dream."
"Of course it depends on the similarity." Mabel answered him, "The factor that drives dreams is the subconscious, and the factor that drives the subconscious is sensibility. If the feelings cannot correspond, the dreams will be arranged instead of simply pieced together. Only the dream weaver can sort it out. Different dream elements. I thought you knew this, so you asked me to find the girl. She is on the surface, which is the more superficial dream period. "
"She is also the node of reset." Uriel murmured, "Ruth and Hitarian, they were also holders, they can affect the dream, thus resisting Joey's reset." So the Black Knight put them Put it in a dream.
"I almost found her." Mabel said regretfully, "But the enemy came faster. If you meet the Black Knight here, you will probably die."
What the hell. Only then did Uriel feel grateful to have survived the disaster. "Why didn't he show up before?"
"I guess it's because of your mentor." Mabel glanced at the apprentice, "Dreams are shaped by the subconscious, and this is his territory... If you are in danger, he will probably wake up directly. Then it will be time to change someone else and be unlucky. .”
This is impossible to say. The apprentice felt that it was more likely that someone else would come to him to question him. "Is it still too late to go back and find Ruth?"
"This is like sending it to your door yourself." Ms. Elf denied, "What else can you do?"
Apprentices really do. "Well, it seems we'd better leave the dreamland before him."
"Go back to the Antuolos Church? The wizards of the school are waiting for you."
"There is no way, Dalton and York are still in the city." Uriel must go back, hoping that the Black Knight will leave in consideration of the threat of the Silent School. "Both they and the Gaia Church need support."
"Leave the dreamland and I won't help you anymore," Mabel Magdalen said.
As expected. "You have helped me a lot, Your Excellency," Uriel told her. "I have only one request, Ms. Mabel. Please do not reveal the contents of the dream."
"You are really unnecessary." Dream Weaver smiled slightly, "Experiences in dreams are not enough as evidence. Even memories are the same... What's more, keeping it secret is good for us all." She left.
"I have to remind you, Uriel, that her guarantee is not enough. There is a mysterious item in the tower that can record dreams. The owner will know about it." The runes lit up.
As long as you don't talk too much, everything will be fine. "Dreams are just dreams. None of the experiences in dreams are real." Uriel answered. Thanks to Ms. Mabel. She didn't give me a guarantee, she gave me an explanation.
