Chapter 255: Refusal to Sink
Tarian didn't admit that he did it, and Su Yang didn't dispel his suspicions about him because of his words or two, it was too coincidental, and Tarian was always the most suspicious candidate.
After leaving the Earl's Palace, Su Yang squatted for a while as usual, and waited until night fell without seeing Tarian go out, and then Su Yang returned to Czech City.
After less than an hour of round trip, Su Yang noticed that the atmosphere in Czech City was a little wrong, and there were not only a large number of guards patrolling the streets, but also NPC soldiers in palace army uniforms to strengthen the garrison. The guards had seen a lot, and Su Yang had really never seen army soldiers patrolling the city.
"What's going on again?" Su Yang hurriedly rushed to the medical hall where Justin was hospitalized, and as he guessed, the closer he got to the medical hall, the stronger the defensive force became.
Su Yang often goes in and out with Selflessness, and many members of the garrison have seen Su Yang, but there is no obstacle along the way, only to be stopped by soldiers at the entrance of the medical hall.
Selfless saw Su Yang in the medical hall, said hello to the general who led the team and let Su Yang in, selfless with a sad face: "You definitely can't imagine what happened." ”
Su Yang smiled bitterly: "Maybe I can guess some." ”
Su Yang saw Hawkes in the infirmary, as well as the managers of the Czech cities of various forces, and the most conspicuous was a tall lion man with a huge broad-bladed sword.
Sixth-Order Sword Fighter Arthur, the absolute leader of the younger generation of the Lionmen, a legendary NPC among the Orcs, a powerful candidate for the next court speaker, and a proud disciple of the Terran Great Sword Saint.
With so many high-level NPCs gathered here, Su Yang guessed, "Did the Demon Lord personally attack the medical hall?" ”
"You guessed it." The selfless tone was a little surprised, "The demon lord Bardock personally appeared, but fortunately, Arthur the lion man was in the infirmary, blocking the attack of the demon lord." ”
Even the powerful demon lord Bardock did not dare to stay in the big city for a long time and did not give the master a chance to besiege him, and the reason why Bardock came to Czech City in person, Su Yang probably guessed the reason.
In Justin's hospital room, Master Connaught sat on the side with a solemn face, and Justin never imagined that he would meet the teacher he had been thinking about in this way.
Arthur sent Master Connaught to Czech City, but he was attacked by Bardock shortly after arriving, and it was almost certain that the target of the demon lord Bardock was Master Connaught.
The reason behind this can be speculated that Master Connaught is the most well-known alchemist and apothecary in the United States of Atamon, and if Master Connaught is killed, the alchemy level of the entire country will drop by a notch. When the time comes, the plague will spread everywhere, which will inevitably make the epidemic more difficult to control, and Bardock, who has recovered strongly, has already begun his own plan.
Fortunately, Bardock's attack failed and did not let his plot succeed, Master Connaught will inevitably pay more attention to his own safety, and the court will also realize the seriousness of the matter, if the plague spreads on a large scale, the consequences will be no less serious than the Black Dragon Crisis.
Master Connaught looked different from usual, still dressed plainly, with a solemn face, discussing Justin's condition with several other alchemists.
"The biggest possibility is a nightmare, do you have any other opinions?"
"If it weren't for Master Connaught, we wouldn't even be able to see the nightmare."
"Nightmares are a vicious curse that cannot be solved, Master Connaught, is there any way to cure Justin?"
Master Connaught said in a deep voice, "There is only one way, to open Justin's dream with Dream Grass, and then others enter the dream to pull Justin out of the nightmare swamp. ”
An alchemist said, "It's too dangerous, and if it fails, the healers will sink in a nightmare." ”
"It's the only way."
Master Connaught's words silenced everyone, the Nightmare Curse has been out of the stage of drug treatment, and there are only a handful of people in history who can get rid of nightmares on their own, and the vast majority of people can't distinguish between dreams and reality, and gradually sink into nightmares.
Dream grass is not a rare material, it can be used to help treat insomnia and anxiety in the game setting, and it is also one of the important ingredients of the consumable "Tranquility Tea", and several alchemists present can take out some on the spot.
There is Dream Grass, who will enter Justin's dream is a big problem, once you enter Justin's dream, it is equivalent to sharing the Nightmare Curse with him, but the latecomer is awake when he first enters, and he can be aware of the dream.
If it takes a long time, it will become impossible to distinguish between dreams and reality, and there is no way to leave the dream when the time comes, which is equivalent to putting your life into it.
Master Connaught said: "It is better for two people to enter the dream realm together and take care of each other, I am one, who else is willing?" ”
Everyone hurriedly persuaded: "By all means, even if we are immersed in a dream, we must not let you put yourself in danger, Master!" ”
But if you really want to decide who will enter Justin's dream, the alchemists will be in trouble again, and it is not possible to say that there is no return, but the risk of sinking is not low at all, and if you are not careful, you will not find a way out of the nightmare.
"I'll do it."
Everyone looked at the voice, it was a black-clothed assassin who was not good-looking, and it was a good thing that someone took the initiative to ask for help, but the other party did not seem to be a pharmacy professional, and I am afraid that the effect was limited.
Su Yang said: "I know Master Justin well, and I am confident that I will not sink into dreams, I can go alone." ”
Master Connaught still remembered Su Yang, he frowned and said, "There is only one chance to enter the dream realm, if you fail to bring Justin out, his consciousness will forcibly close his dream realm out of self-protection, and no amount of dream grass can invade the dream realm." ”
"And me, count me in." Sharisy walked into the hospital room, "I have been exposed to alchemy since I was a child, and I have known Master Justin since I was a child, so I entered the dream world with the bright lights. ”
Master Connaught looked at Justin lying on the hospital bed, sighed softly, and said, "Then I'll trouble you." ”
System: Accept the quest [Refuse to Sink].
Refusal to Fall: Alchemist Justin is cursed by a nightmare, and the only way to do this is to use the Dream Grass to open Justin's dream, and an outsider enters the dream to free Justin. Players who die in the dream realm will not be resurrected normally, and will still lose the current level of experience points, please protect the safety of Justin in the dream, if Justin dies in the dream realm, Justin will also die in reality. Please keep an eye on the [Nightmare Sinking] status under the character's status bar, when the Nightmare Sink status reaches a certain level, the mission will directly fail, and the player will lose all experience points of the current level. The quest rewards 1,000 gold, 525,000 experience points, Justin's favorability increases, and Connaught's favorability increases.
Su Yang wanted to convince Sharisy not to take risks, he was a player, and the worst case was just a loss of experience points, and the price of Shali's failure was too high, and sinking was death.
