Chapter Eighty-Four: Consciousness Blends
The sunlight was a little dazzling, and Selinda subconsciously blocked the sun with her hand, so she saw the blue sky and white clouds between her fingers. She was happy to see the light again, but she always felt that the blue was covered with a gray shadow.
A breeze blew, making her sober again. She was lying on her back, as if there was grass underneath her, and there seemed to be human voices in the distance. Selinda sat up and looked around, and found herself sitting on a grassy slope with a small lake on the edge of the grassy slope, a road that surrounded the grassy slope and the lake, and there were people walking on the road, and beyond the road were buildings of different heights, and in the distance, there were tall buildings piercing into the sky.
The buildings were as square as boxes, neat and grand, even more imposing than the castles of the royal capital. Wait, these houses look familiar, I seem to have been here, here are ......
Selinda turned around and saw the library she had set on fire, but it looked clean and there was no trace of it burning.
Isn't this Li Jia's Mage Academy? Selinda looked at her body, she was not wearing a shirt or pants, nor leather armor, but a green dress, which was the same one Li Jia had given her in the first place.
How did I get here? What the hell is going on?
She pinched herself hard, it hurt, but that didn't mean it wasn't a dream, and after seeing the world of meditation, she knew that the boundary between reality and illusion wasn't so clear. She plucked another grass from the ground, and found that the grass could not see clearly whether it was the veins or rhizomes, and the things around her gave her a hazy sense of instability. She walked to the edge of the pond, and the reflection was herself, a red-haired girl in a green dress, who didn't look much different from the people walking around her.
However, just as she was observing her reflection, the water suddenly shook, and the "Selinda" in the water suddenly frowned, and then said, "This is not the place you should be, get out, get out!"
"Who are you?" said Selinda, who broke out in a cold sweat. But Shui Bo soon regained his composure, and the girl inside stopped moving, leaving only a nervous look.
"Hey, hey!" she called out a few times, and the reflection made the exact same motion, without any oddity. She reached out and lightly touched the surface of the water, only a slight cool feeling.
Selinda had to leave the pond, she quietly observed the passers-by on the road for a while, and found that they were dressed very similarly to Li Jia's group, but she didn't look very obtrusive in their clothes - except for a red hair. So, she put on a calm face, walked slowly down the grassy slope, and walked towards a young woman on the road.
"Hello, where is this?" asked Selinda, stopping in front of her.
The woman was very good-looking, with a nose and a mouth, but she had eyes like dead fish, and when she heard Selinda's question, she looked her up and down, and said, "This is Huaxia University." Everyone here knows. Why don't you know?"
"Uh, I'm from outside. ”
"Outside, there's no one outside the school. Could it be that you are from outside?" the woman pointed to the sky, and seeing that Selinda did not answer, she cried out loudly: "Come on, come on, come on, there's a woman from outside." And she's got red hair!Oh my God, how could this be!!" she screamed and writhed hysterically. In the blink of an eye, her arms twisted and lengthened like the tentacles of an octopus, as if they were rolling towards Selinda.
What kind of monster is this!!
She knew by this time that this was definitely not the real world.
Soon, everyone around them came running, and as they ran, they shouted, "Oh my God, oh my God! That red-haired woman, she's coming from outside, let's get her." "These people, like the woman, turned their hands into tentacles several meters long, besieging Selinda from all directions.
In the eyes of Selinda, a knight, the speed and attacks of these weirdos are almost no threat, but their "octopus" appearance makes her shudder. She ran in the direction of the crowds, sideways to avoid a grab from a man in front of her, kicked him in the waist, kicked him to the ground, and then punched another girl in the jaw, knocking her over. Three steps and two steps, breaking out of this encirclement. She scurried across a lawn, into an alley, and made a few bends in several rooms before finally getting rid of the monsters behind her.
Selinda hid behind a corner, thinking carefully about her current situation.
Here, it should be Li Jia's dream. Perhaps it was because of the stimulation of spiritual power into his conscious body that the consciousness of the two became entangled, and they had this dream within a dream. Selinda has little research on dream-related magic, but from the few rumors she's heard, psychic and dream magic is always full of mysteries and weirdness, much more dangerous than the elemental magic she has mastered. But the key to these spells is that traces of the person in charge can be found in dreams. In other words, no matter what kind of dream it is, the first thing is to find Li Jia. Only by finding him can you communicate with this dream, and you can wake up Li Jia and go out from here.
But where is Li Jia?
The academy in this dream is bigger than the academy that Li Jia took her to, and I am afraid that it is the complete appearance before it fell into Montenegro. Then Li Jia's most likely place is the place he is most familiar with or remembers. Selinda was ready to search around the places he had taken her on.
Or...... They might know something, and before they look for him, they can "ask" the way? Selinda saw a lonely "person" walking in the alley in front of her. These monsters are either magical creations that guard the academy or are just part of a nightmare. But in any case, they must have a connection with Li Jia in their dreams. Selinda picked up a shovel she had just picked up at the side of the flower bed on the road, stepped out of the corner, and slowly approached the prey in front of her.
Walking down the alley is a middle-aged man, wearing a suit with eyes, typical of a university teacher. However, Selinda couldn't see this, in her eyes it was just a potential monster.
When Selinda rushed behind the man, the middle-aged man had already heard the movement, and as soon as he turned around, he took a shovel in his face, hitting him on the cheek, knocking his glasses away and knocking him to the ground. The man's face quickly swollen and bruised. When the man fell to the ground, he screamed ho-ho, and before he could scream twice, he took another handful of his chin, and the blow broke several of his teeth. He tilted his head, spat out a mouthful of blood with broken teeth between his teeth.
The man opened his mouth wide and looked at Selinda viciously, and his hands were about to turn into long whips and sweep towards her. Selinda was quick and poked the opponent's upper arm with a shovel one after another. After a few blows, the man's two arms were broken off by a shovel, and the sleeves of his suit were stained red with blood.
Selinda pressed the tip of the shovel against the other party's throat and asked, "Where is Li Jia?"
"Ah, outsiders...... Hiss...... You shouldn't be in this place, ah......" The man repeated these words, and Selinda poked him several more times with a shovel, and the man just screamed in pain and said, "Ah...... Here...... Except for you, it's all Li Jia. I am Li Jia, the house is Li Jia, everything is Li Jia's, only you are not...... Get out, get out. ”
Selinda poked him in the shoulder with a shovel and asked, "Do you know which Li Jia I'm talking about, the one who really has a soul!"
"Ah...... Hehe, he failed, and naturally he was with us, mixed in with us, and became an inconspicuous one. Sinking, sinking, degrading to what was originally only ours. When the man said this, his face did not show pain, but only fanaticism.
"You've got a good sanity, what the hell are you. Selinda squinted at the man. This man has no resemblance to Li Jia, whom she is well aware. Apart from...... The pair of glasses that fell on the floor. It seems that it is really the one that Li Jia often wears.
"Thoughts, outsiders. I was at the top of my mind. Have you ever had the idea in your mind that 'you don't fit your identity'? I am not him, one of the innumerable! I am, they are, each of them has been. And yet we were pinned down here by him, until one day, when he fell, and we were going to get up!" the man said in a frenzied manner. But Selinda understood some of the reasons.
"How can you still get up now?" Selinda sneered and stomped on his stomach, "Hear you say that, you've seen him." Where the hell is he?"
"Run, he's running away, scared, he's afraid! You can't find him, you'll be devoured by us, you'll be part of us. As he spoke, the man's mouth suddenly grew to an incredible extent, and a tongue with a thick bowl mouth like a snake letter stabbed at Selinda's head.
However, as an experienced fighter, Selinda was on guard, and she avoided the thrust, hooking and pressing the shovel to nail the tongue to the ground. The whole body pressed down, and the tongue was cut off.
The man screamed with blood from his mouth, "Ah...... Get out, you shrew, get out!"
"Get out, you're just a distraction in Li Jia's thinking, what qualifications do you have to let me, the hostess, get out." It's time to help Li Jia clean up her brain. Selinda bit her silver teeth, and the shovel fell together, chopping down the man's neck fiercely.
