Talos had just finished a high-intensity training session, exhausted, and every muscle in his body was drained.

He didn't want to do anything, he just wanted to lie down and get a good night's sleep.

Consciousness directs the body, responds according to the body's instincts, lies directly on the training ground, closes its eyes and sleeps.

Something strange happened, and Talos remembered very well that he had completed the action of "closing his eyes", but he still saw the water in front of him and the deep blue above his head.

Did you really not close your eyes or were you too tired to hallucinate?

With difficulty, Talos raised his right hand and touched his eyes, finding that his eyes were indeed not closed.

I'm too tired, get some sleep, don't worry about these fluffy little problems, and my mind and body will wail again at the same time.

Talos repeated the process of closing his eyes and preparing for bed, but it was still the ubiquitous sea water that filled his eyes instead of the stillness and darkness he longed for.

Naga realized something was wrong and repeated his preparations for bed for the third time, this time, with difficulty, he raised his sore and weak right hand and pressed it against his own eyes.

In this way, Talos was able to feel the movement and process of closing his eyelids with his right hand, and to determine whether he had just encountered something strange or a hallucination that was physically and mentally exhausted.

By touch, Talos could tell that his eyelids were gradually closing, but something strange happened again, he could still see the water, and his eyes opened again and again before he knew it, as if the upper eyelid returned to its original position when the upper and lower eyelids were about to touch.

What's even more ridiculous is that even if he covered his eyes with his palm, his vision was not affected in the slightest, as if his palm was transparent and could not block the light at all.

If he can't close his eyes, he can't sleep. Talos's brain was in a state of confusion, and all the thoughts that had just arisen about "asking for help from the outside world", "leaving the training ground", and "using the Ring of the Magic Web" disappeared, and he was once again immersed in the infinite loop of "I want to sleep".

Despite this, Talos could vaguely feel the passage of time and the desire for sleep, and he remembered very well that it had been a full eighteen hours since the end of training, but he still couldn't complete the usual action of closing his eyes.

Physically exhausted, mentally exhausted, and thirsty for sleep, Talos thought he might be driven insane if he couldn't sleep again.

Closing his eyes again, Talos' eyes opened, and he woke up.

A strange dream.

Talos pressed his forehead and glanced at the time on the Ring of the Magic Web, twenty-four hours ago, he had said goodbye to his friends who had come to the Black Sea for a dinner party, fifteen hours ago, he had fallen asleep in bed, but he felt more tired than ever because of the strange dream just now.

Talos cares more about the content of the dreams than about the consequences of them, because he remembers every minute and every second of what happened in the dreams, as well as the irritability, anxiety, rage, restlessness, and madness that comes from not being able to fall asleep.

Strange dreams are not like dreams, but a different reality.

After the night fell again, Talos went to bed punctually.

In a trance, he encountered a very embarrassing thing.

He traveled to the Golden Empire as the prince of the Black Sea Duchy and the Count of Gorgon, and when he was cordially conversing with Emperor Blaise II at the splendid palace of Miró, the capital of Saraphos, he suddenly felt a strong urge to urinate over his body.

In front of the public and in full view, it was undoubtedly a very rude thing to suddenly stop talking to the emperor and go to the bathroom.

Of course, for Talos, what was even worse was the sudden embarrassment and shame because of the physiological needs.

With the strong will of a high-ranking bloodline knight, Talos resisted his physical impulses, and continued to exchange opinions and opinions with Blaise II on the further opening of the Prismatic Pearl Adriatic.

As time passed, the urge grew stronger, and Talos even saw the dam being washed away by the flood.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but the bard's singing in the banquet hall turned into a trickle before Talos could react, and even the movement of the waiter in the distance to the red wine became full of temptation.

Waves of impulses are released from the depths of the body, constantly rolling up waves and sweeping the brain, urging and shouting to open the floodgates as soon as possible.

Gradually, Talos felt his arms begin to tremble, his tail shaking unnaturally, and he almost couldn't hold on anymore.

People have three urgency, this is no way to do it, Talos comforted himself like this, ready to find an excuse to solve the physiological problem.

However, just as he found a suitable opportunity, the contemporary Pope Victor I of the Temple of Order and Knights appeared in the banquet hall.

The spokesperson of the god of order and knighthood in the main material plane immediately approached Talos and expressed his high praise for Naga's achievements in reaching the rank of high-level bloodline knight at the age of 17, and said that it was a pity that the Grand Duke of the Black Sea was not able to visit the Golden Empire in person.

After the three-hour banquet, Talos swam as fast as he could to the bathroom closest to the banquet hall, his tail already cramping from holding urine for a long time.

"Your Royal Highness, please come with me, the bathroom is here. ”

Following the attendant's guidance, Talos kept moving forward, and strange things happened again, and the distance of less than 100 feet was stretched infinitely.

With Talos's strength and urgent physiological needs, it was only a matter of seconds, but in fact, it had been ten minutes since he saw the bathroom sign, and Talos seemed to be still in place and had not moved.

In the waiter's astonished eyes, Talos pulled out the froststeel scimitar hanging from his waist and made a mark on the wall to verify that he had not really moved.

It turned out that Talos's assumption was wrong, he was indeed moving forward, but it was so far away from the bathroom.

One hour, two hours, three hours......

After swimming for a full thirty-three hours, Talos came to his senses a second before his bladder was about to explode.

Another strange dream.

This time, the time he experienced in the dream was thirty-six hours, which happened to be one day, and he was also tortured for a day.

Wrong!

At the time of the first strange dream, Talos was able to comfort himself that it was an accident, and the occurrence of two strange dreams in a row easily overturned yesterday's conclusion.

In connection with the abilities brought by [Laziness], Talos had to consider the possibility of the primordial desire counterattack, and compared with the counterattack of the two primordial desires of [Gluttony] and [Jealousy], the counterattack of [Laziness] seems to be more silent and moderate, and it seems to be more harmless.

Talos spent five minutes pondering and comparing the similarities and differences between the two dreams, and found that the second one took exactly twice as long as the first.

If this is a trend, does it mean that he will have a third strange dream tonight, and the dream will last for seventy-two hours, that is, two days, and it will also be accompanied by a seemingly insignificant torment that once the timeline is extended, it is a torment.

It's okay that he wants to sleep but can't sleep, Talos persevered, but in the second strange dream, Talos more than once arose the idea of giving up on himself, knocked all the waiters on both sides of the corridor unconscious, and then ...... on the spot

The experience in the dream is so real that even if you wake up, you will still have the influence from the illusory dream, and the mental torture will not go away when you wake up.

What's more, based on the understanding of [gluttony] and [jealousy], Talos believes that the counterattack of [laziness] will definitely not stay at the superficial level of simple torture in dreams.

Will there be a situation in the future where the dream lasts for ten years and the reality is just one night?

As soon as this thought came to him, Talos was not good.

At twice the rate, after six days he would face sixty-four days in his dream, which is more than a month, eleven days later it would become a year and a half, fourteen days later it would become twelve years, after fifteen days it would become twenty-four years, and after twenty days one night would be 768 years.

In just 24 days, the dream will be 12,288 years long, which is longer than an epoch in the real world!

Under the impact of such a huge time gap in a row, can he still distinguish between dreams and reality?

In other words, for Talos at that time, the brief reality of only thirty-six hours at most was a dream.

To make matters worse, Talos was not at all sure that he would last until twenty days, as he was unsure if the damage he suffered in the strange dream would be mapped to reality.

The idea of thinking by day and dreaming by night also works in the Atlas, because on the third night, Talos was successfully besieged in the midst of a strange nightmare.

It was a monotonous and terrifying deep blue sea, with only one Naga in Talos, surrounded by a large group of sea monster electric eels, attacking him.

It stands to reason that since it is a dream, Talos, as the owner of the dream, has infinite possibilities in the dream, but in fact, Talos's strength is similar to reality.

Bloodline Specialty - Maelstrom!

Bloodline Specialty - Riptide Arrows!

Bloodline Specialty - Water Drops!

When Talos cut the last electric eel in half, the sizzling sound of electricity was heard again in the distance, and it was a dense electric ray.

After the electric ray, there is the lighthouse jellyfish, and after the lighthouse jellyfish, there is the sawtooth shark, then the vampire manta ray, the poisonous seahorse, and the second-order sea magic creature Diamond starfish.

As Talos had guessed beforehand, this time, the strange dream lasted for two days, and he fought in the dream for two days in a row.

When he opened his eyes again and woke up from his dream, Talos saw Sandra standing beside the bed, with a serious face.

In the next second, he knew why Sandra was here, because there were two wounds on his arm and tail—the ones he had suffered when he was besieged by the Diamond Starfish, but not as severe as in his dream—from which blood flowed.

Because the owner was deep in a dream and didn't have time to deal with it, the whole room was filled with a smell of blood.

In this case, it is impossible for the Black Sea knights waiting outside to be unaware, so it is not surprising that Sandra is standing here.

The worst thing happens, and the damage taken in the strange dream will be reflected in reality.

"We need to talk, Tár. ”

Talos was a little nervous, and with an inexplicable relief: "Yes, Mother, I think I need your help. ”
