Chapter 741: The Port
The battle is over.
All the filth was burned by the flames, except for a mass of unburned objects remained.
It's not a fish monster's bones, it's some metal coins.
There seems to be a normal currency in circulation in the dream world.
The obverse of the coin is engraved with a "strange creature resembling 'long-bearded broccoli,'" while the back is engraved with a Roman palace motif for a three-dimensional effect.
Considering that they might be used in the future, Han Dong put all the coins in his pocket, and these coins have been burned by the Holy Flame and are not dangerous in themselves.
After this battle, a very important thing was determined - [Conch Respirator]
The next encounters will be different.
Whether it is to deal with the enemy, or to defend itself, it will be dominated by respirators...... Of course, it is also possible that there are some beings entrenched in the port town that do not require respirators.
First of all, Han Dong released three crows and rose to a height of 100 meters.
The overlapping nature of the dreams was confirmed.
The group is still on the same island, and the same port city is on the west coast...... However, when viewed through the crow's view, the entire harbor is shrouded in a hazy mist, making it impossible to see from afar.
After a brief explanation of the current environmental situation, the in-depth investigation was officially launched.
The improvised four-person squad also gives a clear division of labor.
Deeds, who has reached the "fourth order" and has the most seniority, is the captain of the Dream Squad and the team's mid-distance shooter.
Lucius, who has overwhelming attack strength, serves as the main output member of the squad.
It had been clear from the battle that Lucius's Blood Sword was capable of shattering important conch breathing apparatus, making Lucius the sharpest spear in the squad.
Wino acts as a Battle Nun as a defensive support for the team.
In high-intensity combat, they will use the Holy Shield and the Flails to fight in close combat with Lucius.
Under normal circumstances, Wino only needs to provide enhanced blessings and spiritual purification for his teammates who have been polluted.
As for Han Dong.
Based on the performance of the battle and the efficiency of intelligence gathering, he acts as a "scout" in the team, that is, a scout.
That's it.
The makeshift team heads to the port town once again to investigate the origins of this incident.
On the way.
Maybe it's because of the environment, or maybe it's because of the mental fatigue that comes in before falling asleep.
Wino. Celeste felt a hint of sleepiness run through her brain.
Although when sleepiness strikes, it is immediately dispelled by the holy spirit of the nun.
But it was also such a moment that Wino had a feeling of 'being surrounded by tentacle shadows, and strange whispers lingering in her ears', and the cold hairs on her arms were all erected.
Wino immediately threw out a question:
"What happens if we fall asleep in a dream? Or do we simply not sleep? β
Han Dong hurriedly explained: "It's naturally no problem to sleep...... Even in real life, there are cases of "dreams within dreams".
But the dream-within-a-dream here will be different, and once you fall asleep, there may be big problems.
It's like people in the superficial world need to fall asleep through a conch, otherwise they will undergo super-rapid distortion and fall instantly.
Dreaming in a dream may also require some special means of dreaming.
Before the investigation is clear, everyone must keep their spirits excited, and the in-depth investigation will also encounter the situation of [sleepiness invasion] later, everyone supervises each other, and must not fall asleep. β
may be the reason why the 'three views' of Knight Wino were completely subverted by Han Dong a few years ago.
At this moment, when Han Dong gave an answer, the 'sense of security' he felt was much higher than the sense of security brought by his "Silver Edge" team, Captain Ridiz.
Wino believes that Han Dong will become a world changer.
β¦β¦
A small island that looks exactly the same as the surface.
There are a lot of 'details' that have changed.
The concrete road leading to the town or the woods on either side are overflowing with a layer of seawater.
Dead fish everywhere,
Shells and starfish that grow on tree trunks,
The remains of large fish remained in the forest, and even a giant whale was seen in the glade, about 50% of which was already skeleton...... Its abdomen is filled with human skulls, and it is extremely frightening.
How did these island-wide marine creatures come to be?
Was it swept up to the island by a hurricane, or was it a heavy rain that directly rained them down? Or maybe the island is part of the ocean floor and has somehow crossed the surface.
With doubts in mind, the four of them came to a small hill with a panoramic view of the town.
The scene is almost similar to that of the old town, except that all the pedestrians wear conch breathing apparatus.
"Port ...... Seems to be closed? β
Han Dong took advantage of the farsightedness of the little magic eye to find that the dock that should be closely lined up on the coastline has been completely dismantled.
It's not just that there isn't a single steamship that goes to sea.
A three-metre-high steel seawall has been erected along the entire coastline, and there are even sturdy security officers with unspeakable tattoos on their skin.
"Hmm...... Isn't the "dream entrance" here on the surface of the sea? β
"Nicholas, what do you say? What mouth is not on the surface of the sea? β
Because of his attention to Han Dong, Wino deliberately got very close, and unfortunately saw Han Dong's lips open and close, and read a little information.
The latter couldn't help but be taken aback by Wino's lip speaking ability, and quickly explained: "It's nothing, I mean...... This time the key doesn't seem to be on the surface.
The inhabitants have sealed off the harbor, and perhaps the secret of the dream is hidden in the town.
Let's go, let's go into town and have a look. β
"How to get in, lurk in?" Wino asked.
Click...... Han Dong tapped his fingers on the respirator on his face, "This is the best disguise, in the dream world, we belong to the same category as them - 'dreamers'. β
As Han Dong said.
The four of them walked down the dirty streets, completely being treated as the same kind by the inhabitants of the area.
The reason why they were attacked by the cart man before was only because Han Dong and his party were regarded as 'unclean resurrectors'.
I want to inquire about the news.
The best and most appropriate place to do this is the bar.
γCaptain Parson's Bootsγ
The bar's sign is also covered with a large number of shells, and one of them actually has a pair of mud-covered long shoes.
Bell bell bell ......
Han Dong stepped on wet leather shoes and limped to the bar.
The surface of the bar was covered with a layer of clear water, and a few crabs were crawling around on the bar.
Syllable!
A dark black coin pressed against the bar, pointing casually at a bottle of wine on top of the wine cabinet.
See the bartender roll the tentacles into his hands through the tentacles on the respirator and start making the drink.
The other three companions also came to the bar one after another, looking around the weird bar area.
That's when it happened.
Han Dong sensed something and looked at the stairwell leading to the second floor of the bar.
The phantom shadows of the octopus's tentacles flashed.
"There are the same kind!! Take Nicole with you! β
