Chapter 118, Dream Realm

————————————

When living beings inhabit the material world, and living beings have souls, but they cannot recognize the world, they begin to use their imagination to fantasize about the truth of the world, and subconsciously explore everything in this world. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

These imaginations collided with the subconscious and some mysterious spaces in the universe, and a space-time called [Fantasy Dream] was born.

It was inhabited by evil gods, outer gods, and ancient gods, and it was there that Nordens came from, and the essence of Nyaratotip was there.

After Tiga defeated and sealed the six ancient gods including Ketanid, he embarked on the path to the Dreamland.

It was Nordens who told him that a will had disturbed dark energy, and now he was going to ask Nordens who that will was.

Luluye's Nordens has been sealed, so Tiga has to go to the Dream Realm to find Nordens' body.

If you want to go to the dream world, it's actually very simple.

The most convenient way to get to the dream realm is to dream.

So, Tiga found a place on the moon to lie down and sleep, and fell into a dream.

When in the dream, the idea of wanting to enter the dream realm appeared in Tiga's mind, and a seventy-step spiral staircase appeared under his feet, which was the "staircase of light sleep".

Tiga descended the seventy stairs and entered the cave, which was called the "Fire Cave", and there were two giants in the cave, two gatekeepers.

When they saw Tiga, they said, "Very few people can stay awake and come here, we are the gatekeepers here, I am Nast and he is Kamensa. ”

"My name is Tiga, and I want to go to the Dream Realm."

Tiga looked at the two giants and thought to himself that since they were gatekeepers, they should not let people enter the dream realm.

"I see, then please come in." I don't know that the two gatekeepers let them go directly.

Tiga was stunned when he saw this, although he was slightly surprised, he didn't ask, and walked in directly.

After he left, the gatekeeper said, "No one has ever gone in soberly and come out sober." ”

……

After entering the Huoxuan Cave, Diga walked down the 700 steps of deep sleep, and finally came to the Enchanted Forest surrounded by the Illusory Dream, where it rained heavily and the gate of the Illusory Dream Realm.

It is said to be a forest, but there are not many plants here, and it is actually similar to an asteroid belt, which is a "forest" composed of countless huge floating celestial bodies, and colorful stardust flies between the celestial bodies, causing some psychedelic effects.

Tiga passed through the forest and came to a continent.

It is a world made up of imagination, the existence of everything is so inconsistent with the laws of nature, a continent floats directly in space, where the sky is round, the sun and the moon revolve around this continent, and this continent is a flattened earth.

"Well, someone!?"

Tiga saw humans on this continent, yes, life forms that were exactly the same as humans in the real world regardless of height and size, and they lived their lives in fantasy dreams as if they were in the real world.

Tiga takes on human form and asks the humans here where Nordens is.

To communicate in a dream is not to use any language, but to use the mind.

At first, Diga couldn't control his thinking, and he was too "active" to show his gloom, which caused a burst of unmalicious ridicule from the people here, but soon Diga controlled his thinking, and he could control what he wanted to express and what he didn't want to express.

In addition to humans, there are other species in this world, such as ghouls.

Ghouls are a nocturnal subterranean race that was once human, and their continued habit of eating only dead human flesh has transformed them into terrifying, beastly humanoids who, despite their terrifying appearance, are also intelligent enough to converse with humans.

The ghouls of the Dream Realm worship Nordens, and under the guidance of humans, Tiga finds some ghouls and continues to search for Nordens in the Dream Realm under the guidance of the ghouls.

While traveling to Nordens' location, Tiga encounters a toad-like creature with tentacles in its mouth, the Moon Beast.

Despite their strange appearance, they are highly intelligent creatures, and they are the hands of Nyarrathotep in the Dreamscape.

The moon beasts will devour humans, and when they saw Tiga, they wanted to swallow Diga in one bite, but they were killed by Tiga and used as a mount, and came to the sealed land of Nayarathotip.

Here, he meets a silver-haired girl, Naia.

"Tiga, you shouldn't have come here." Naia said to Tiga that she was an out-of-body incarnation of Naiarathotep's body that had been sealed here.

"I want to ask Nordens, I want to know the truth." Tiga replied.

"Even if you know the answer, it's useless."

"So you know the truth of that will?"

"I know, but I can't say."

"Then don't stop me from going to Nordens."

“…… You're pushing yourself into despair. ”

Tiga walked past Naia and left without looking back.

In the end, Tiga finally found the body of Nordens, sitting on the infinitely flat white field, the old man with fairy bones and white hair and white beard, with his eyes closed, as if he was meditating and dozing off.

"Nordens, tell me the answer, who is disturbing the dark energy?" Diga, who was out of step with the white field, came to the old man and asked him straight to the point.

“…… Do you really want to know? The old man slowly opened his eyelids, revealing a pair of cloudy eyes.

Diga was silent, looking at Nordens without taking his eyes off it.

"Azathoth......" Nordens closed his eyes and seemed to fall into a deep sleep.

“…… Azathoth? Diga repeated the name.

"Azathoth is an outer god that existed before the birth of the multiverse, and there is also the figure of Azathos behind the birth of this universe, that is, he is the creator god of the universe." Naia appeared behind Tiga and explained.

“……”

Naia looked at Tiga's back, did not feel the fear of the owner of the back, and continued: "The body of Azathoth is in the Void Sea above the universe, and the body follows the instinct to stir in the Void Sea, causing the universe to destroy and promote the birth of a new universe. ”

"There were so many pipers around him, and I was one of them." Naia pointed to herself.

“…… To calm the dark energy is to imprison the soul of Azathoth, who is not in his body, but hidden in a 'door' between the multiverses, called Yog Sothoth. ”

"Where is he?"

"He is on earth."

Having received the information he needed, Tiga returned the same way and left the Dream Realm.

On the white plains, Nordens opened his eyes, looked at Naia and said, "Azathoth is your boss, and you actually told Tiga the location of his soul!" ”

"I don't want to be a beast anymore."

Azathos is the creator god and at the same time an ignorant deity, whose consciousness is no different from that of a wild beast, and all his actions follow instinct.

"So you put your hopes in Tiga? He's nothing more than a dark energy that can purify disorder. ”

"You're old-eyed, Nordens." Naia scoffed.

"Diga doesn't purify the dark energy, but directly removes the influence of Azathos in the dark energy, and the dark energy that he has dealt with will not be affected by Azathos, don't you see a problem?"

"The time of Azathoth is over, and the soul that restrained him has appeared!"
