Section 651 Meaning of Illusion
When Grea had walked around Witch Town, she roughly understood what the sign meant by "Nightmare Amusement Park".
In the fog, Grea couldn't find her way at all. But the fog was strange, as if it were alive, and it actively guided Grea into the buildings.
Every building is empty. But every item inside tells a story of a nightmare.
For example, in a slaughterhouse where Grea went not long ago, the machete stuck in the board made Grea experience a nightmare of being chased by a butcher.
Also, the half-opened canon in the church makes Grea feel like a convicted heretical witch, burned by flames while listening to bloody and evil teachings.
In addition, the single building lacked a one-arm trench coat, the city hall was littered with paper, and the garden was full of brilliant flowers...... and so on, all of which can become a "nightmare" on their own, and when they are aggregated, they are an amusement park of nightmares.
Just like the things full of deep meaning that Grea saw in the feather earrings, people unconsciously made up one big drama after another. But this time Angel went one step further, and it was also a brain supplement, but Grea used the form of "nightmare" this time to experience the story of her own brain supplement.
"That's a novelty. Grea muttered to herself, she asked Angel for two things: first, to blend into the Nightmare Realm, and second, to be new.
The experience of Witch Town alone actually meets these two points. The first point is very consistent, this strong sense of the nightmare realm makes her more moved than the belly of the mountain in the feather earrings.
As for the second novelty, although the form of "nightmare" is still somewhat insufficient, it is still an innovation if it is really to be judged.
Moreover, the experience of Witch Town made Grea feel hearty.
When she was a mortal, she had nightmares. Now, after all these years, she rarely has nightmares.
Although she didn't feel terrible about these nightmares, Ingres's manipulation of "emotions" was simply amazing, even if she didn't feel terrifying, but in these nightmares, Grea still felt her heart beating faster and cold sweat dripping.
Although there are still some places she hasn't visited, Grea plans to leave Witchtown and check out other places.
But she searched for a long time, but she couldn't find a stone stake or a copper bell that could call the cat bus.
Grea recalls the umbrella tanuki she had met on the trail, and the place where it was standing was supposed to be a platform...... However, next to it is not a "stone stake and a brass bell", but an iron street sign.
Could it be that the platform is different in each place?
Gleia stayed in the witch town for a long time, but still couldn't find the platform, she thought about it and simply quit the illusion.
After Grea exited the illusion, she calmed down a little. Although those "nightmares" were just dreams, they also brought her some mood fluctuations. If it were realistic, Ingres would naturally not be able to do this, but if she wants to experience an illusion, she must let go of her mental power, which gives Ingres the ability to control her emotions.
Half an hour later, Grea reactivates the Dream Twins.
She thought she would return to the path in front of the cave, but she didn't...... She remained in the mists of Witchtown.
"It's different from the illusion setting in the feather earrings. Grea whispered, was this a record of her previous experiences?
Grea still knows a little about illusions, but she has never seen such illusions that can "continue".
"But it's also interesting. Grea didn't think much about it, since she couldn't leave by cheating, let's keep looking, after all, it's a platform, and it shouldn't be placed in an inconspicuous place.
However, Grea was wrong.
Two hours later, Grea entered a lonely cabin. She had passed by the hut many times, but she had never entered it, and she wondered if the platform should be in a small hut.
Reality slapped her in the face.
Not only is the platform in the cabin, but it's also very inconspicuous!
In this lonely cabin, there is nothing but a lonely oil painting hanging on the wall. And in this lonely oil painting, a ...... is painted Lonely platform.
Grea twitched the corners of her mouth: "Don't tell me, the platform in this painting is the platform of the cat bus." ”
Grea reached into the painting, and the next second, she found herself pulled into the painting by a strange force, standing in front of the platform.
At the same time, the familiar footsteps of wild beasts were heard in the distance.
Grea looked up into the distance, and on the road shrouded in thick fog, two lights pierced through the fog and rushed towards her.
When the orange brindled cat jumped out of the fog, Grea rubbed her slightly swollen temples: Angel, you're so good at playing!
This orange cat is undoubtedly a cat bus.
When the cat bus saw someone on the platform, it immediately stopped and turned its huge and bright-eyed head: "Beautiful lady, the cat bus is at your service." ”
Grea was wondering, why didn't the cat bus ask her where she was going?
When she looked up, she saw a little girl with two pigtails in the belly compartment of the cat bus looking out curiously.
Got a guest?
Grea turned around and asked the cat bus, "Where is the destination of this bus?"
"The destination of this trip, the tree nest. ”
Grea thought for a moment, "Okay, I'll go to the tree nest too." ”
Catbus nodded, opened the plush door, and lowered the ladder. Grea stepped up the stairs and sat in the seat directly across from the little girl.
It was only then that Grea could see the little girl's appearance. To be honest, Grea thinks that the little girl looks very much like Shan, but compared to Shan, this girl is shorter, and she is estimated to be less than a meter tall.
And although Shan looks like a girl, her actual age is very large, which can be seen from her mature eyes. And the little girl in front of her has an ignorant, childish, and innocent look, and there is still a clear difference between her and Shan.
"What is Ingres doing in the illusion of this girl?, what special hobby does he have?" said Grea, looking curiously at the girl across from her.
But the girl didn't react.
The cat bus began to splo, and the little girl seemed to have no notice at all, and was still standing happily on her seat, but in the market, she was still a little short from the window, and she could only support the window edge with her chubby little hands, and her feet kept rising, looking out of the window.
A cool breeze poured in, blowing the girl's pigtails all over the place.
She didn't seem to feel cold at all, but laughed happily and shouted loudly out the window.
Grea stroked her somewhat messy hair, looked back at the window, it was still foggy outside, and she didn't know what the girl was excited about.
Grea tried to talk to her, but unsurprisingly, she didn't get a response. The girl didn't seem to know that there were people in the carriage.
"It's like a vision. Grea muttered under her breath.
But on the other hand, perhaps in the eyes of the girl, Grea is actually like an illusion, in a world that does not exist.
"Perhaps, this is a story line set up by Ingres, but what is the meaning of a mortal storyline?" Grea could see that this girl was just a mortal, should she still take the time to read the stories of mortals?
When you get to the nest of the tree, call the cat bus to the next place, but where to go? Forget it, take your pick.
At this time, the cat bus finally ran out of the fog range.
The little girl on the other side cried even more cheerfully, like the excited howl of an ape when it sees a tree hanging with vines.
Grea shook her head, although she hated being noisy, everything in front of her was just an illusion, and she didn't bother to care. She turned to look out the window, and after the fog had passed, she saw the soft moon again.
Outside, farmland under the moonlight.
In addition, there is no mountain shelter, and the moonlight alone can take in the scenery outside.
"Sure enough, it's the realm of mortals, so that tree nest is not a mortal village?" said Grea frowned.
While she was wondering, a burst of melodious music came from nowhere.
This is a song that Grea has never heard before, but she inexplicably thinks it is good, and people can't help but think of the gentle moonlight.
The music is soft and very much in line with the mood of the moment. Cat bus jumping over mountains and seas, moonlit forests, innocent childhood.
At this moment, Grea suddenly understood Angels' intentions.
The cat bus stopped, and the little girl jumped away, and was picked up by a girl who looked a little like her.
Grea didn't get out of the bus and let the cat bus move on.
Behind the cat bus, the two sisters hugged each other and ran happily towards a giant tree, above which a strange gray beast was floating in the air.
When Grea saw this scene, she roughly guessed that the story line of this tree nest was based on these two sisters, and the gray beast probably played some role in it.
But knowing it, Grea still has no intention of exploring it now.
She roughly understood that Angels had set up various areas, with Witchtown representing "awe of fear" and tree nests perhaps representing "not forgetting the original intention".
After walking for many years, she seems to have forgotten the appearance of her original intention. But just now, she was faintly touched in her heart, as if she saw herself when she was young.
She didn't let herself explore, she wanted to go through the entire Illusion area before deciding on her next move.
The cat bus continued to move forward, and in the "Mermaid Sea" Grea saw the waves of the sea, and she faintly felt that there was a strong nightmare atmosphere at the bottom of the sea. In the "Sky Island", she saw a steel ruin, and she didn't explore any specific secrets......
One area after another, Grea has a panoramic view.
But she didn't stop, but let the cat bus go on.
On the way, Grea met several passengers, with different dresses, different identities, and different expressions. There are those who are silent, those who are afraid, and those who are full of worries...... Perhaps each guest has their own storyline.
At the last stop, Grea arrives at a place called the "Mysterious Mountain".
It's a barren mountain.
Grea was wondering what the mountain meant when a gust of wind blew in from outside the carriage.
As the wind swept through Greya's skin, she jerked to her feet from her seat...... How could it be like this?!
