Chapter 8: The Ambition of the Monster Girl

"Transit Station". Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

While the name may not sound great, the sheer scale is somewhat surprising.

A vast area, a variety of departments, and so many employees who were so busy that they didn't even glance at Su Mu and the others when they came in. The whole place resembles the office building of a large corporation.

"Although this is the entrance~ but it is also a very important place in the organization. For example, our usual food, clothing, housing and transportation in the outside world are provided here. ”

“…… Then you must be very bad with the people here, right? ”

Su Mu only remembered Mu Shi's terrible residence, so he just complained about it, but he didn't expect the girl to really nod.

"Yes, the person in charge here used to be a demon hunter, and they were all a bunch of paranoids, so don't say anything about it when you see us, it's okay if you don't do it directly......" The girl said with a smile.

Su Mu: "......"

……

In the "Transit Station", the two of them finally came to the location of the "Gate" after going around for a long time.

It's actually a door, although it's a place that leads to another dimension, but it's not at all like the black hole-like special effects in the movie, or the comics The door of truth is full of feeling, if you have to say it, Su Mu thinks that this main color is pink, and the door can only allow one person to pass through, a bit of a blue-skinned fat man's sense of sight at random......

Walking into the "door", Su Mu felt that he had been in a trance, but the strangeness only lasted for a moment, and when he opened his eyes again, the world had changed.

Layers of trees crisscross the sky, fresh greenery obscures the sky, and the dark forest is a path paved with stones, and at the end of the path is a pool of glowing water.

"That's the world's gift to mankind, the Dream Pool~"

Looking at the pool full of fantasy, Su Mu nodded suddenly, and then asked with some doubts: "I thought I was going to pass through the headquarters, but wouldn't it be a problem to put it at the door?" ”

"It's not at the door, it's the 'door', as long as you hold the handle, you can silently remember the place you have been to in your heart, and you can reach that place after opening the door~"

Su Mu: "......"

It's a random door!

I thought I was used to mystery, but I didn't think that my current world would be more magical than I thought.

When I came to the edge of the pool, the breeze blew, and the clear water did not form a single ripple, only the looming mist slowly spread.

“…… Am I going to soak in it like a bath? ”

"Or else?" The girl asked with a narrow smile.

Su Mu: "......"

"Eh, hey, hey~ Su Mu is shy~ I lied to you~ Ahhhh......hh

"No wonder ......" Looking at the dreamlike pool, Su Mu continued to ask with interest: "You said that you can get the 'gift' when you go inside, what is the 'gift'?" ”

"Huh? Didn't the eldest lady tell Su Mu? ”

"......" Su Mu was silent, he couldn't tell the girl that he had gone too far with his sister that night, so he forgot to ask later, right?

However, the girl didn't dwell on this question, and began to say slowly: "Because of cultural differences, there are dozens of power systems that are already known (she forgot how many exactly), but in the final analysis, there are only four categories, the innate demonic power of our youkai, the spiritual power of spiritual abilities such as cultivators and magicians, the divine skills obtained by priests through faith, and the 'gift'. ”

"And the 'gift' is the supernatural ability given by the world to the individual, such as controlling fire, flying, clairvoyance, telekinesis, and so on."

"How much can you have?" Su Mu was a little surprised.

"It's just one, but it's also very good, after all, unlike the other three systems, which require years of practice, the ability of 'Gift' is quick, and with a little training, it can be compared to most of the abilities."

"Is it just 'shoulder to shoulder'?" Su Mu smiled, and then suddenly asked, "What is your 'gift' that Mu Shi?" ”

"Huh? I don't have a gift, because the Dream Pool is ineffective for those of us who are capable. ”

Su Mu nodded.

Is that why it's called a 'gift'? In this world of all kinds of inhumans, mercy for mortals.

"Okay~ Su Mu, let's go in!" The girl seemed to be a little anxious, "The 'Dream Pool' of our South China branch can only be used twice a month, and we are still in line~"

Cut? Su Mu was stunned.

Although there are still many questions, Su Mu doesn't want to make it difficult for this girl who seems to have used her privileges.

"Then the last question, is it up to you to decide what kind of abilities you will acquire?"

"No, but it's about the same~ The reason why the "Dream Pool" is named after a dream is because after entering it, you will have a very special dream, which is the truest reflection of your heart, and the final ability is the embodiment of your inner desire."

Seems interesting.

After listening, Su Mu walked into the calm pool without hesitation with a hint of anticipation.

"Mushi, thank you."

The sudden thank you of the "......" made the girl stunned, but soon she laughed.

Looking at the figure that disappeared into the mist, the girl turned and sat down on the stone steps by the pool. She didn't want to leave Su Mu here alone, even if no one would make trouble here.

And she also wanted to know for the first time what the abilities Su Mu had acquired would be, as well as ......

Although the full moon of the "Dream Pool" will restore all the energy every month, but its total amount can only meet the needs of two people, so the first person to enter must be better than the one who enters later, after all, the higher the concentration of energy, the easier it is to absorb, which is why the girl hurriedly came here, because last night was the night of the full moon.

"Are you already in?"

Just when Mu Shi was in a daze, a girl who looked seven or eight points like her, but was one size smaller, came to her side.

Seeing the visitor, Mu Shi showed a soft smile on his face: "Futaba~"

"I'm tired to death, sister~" Saying that, the girl came to the position next to Mu Shi and sat down, and then smiled at Mu Shi with a happy face: "Fortunately, Brother Su Mu is the son of the minister, otherwise sister, your abuse of power this time, even I can't cover it......"

"Eh, hey, hey~ After all, it's the 'Dream Pool'~"

"But sister, you don't even know what Brother Su Mu's ability is, so are you going to absorb it into your own team?"

"Do you really have to wait until later?" Mu Shi turned his head and asked his sister with a smile on his face.

"That's for sure, right? After all, with your sister, the task you are assigned must be high-risk, in case Brother Su Mu ......"

"Yes, if something happens to Su Mu, the eldest lady will definitely not let me go~" The girl smiled and agreed with her sister's words, and then he set his eyes on the misty mist of the "Dream Pool":

"Futaba, it's different from you, although I'm just a half-ass, but I still have a good practice of our clan's abilities. Some time ago, when I was half-demonized, I felt a suffocating soul aura from Su Mu's body......"
