Konstantin did not have the decadent attitude of the hippie smile in the past, the smoke filled between his eyebrows, and when the eyebrows were pressed down, he looked a little indifferent, revealing the sense of distance in the bones of the British, making him look a kind of British elegant sexy.

Konstantin crouched down and tilted his head to look at Morpheus, no one knew how beautiful Oneiroi really was in his eyes.

But there was no doubt that when he looked at Morpheus's face, the intoxicated look did not deceive, perhaps, he did not see a certain person, but a dream that he had been extravagant for a long time, but had never obtained.

"Morpheus, the last time I came to you, I didn't get the answer I wanted, and you no longer allow me to enter the dream realm, so I can only use this method to say goodnight to you personally."

Konstantin looked Morpheus in the eye and said, "From a very young age, I knew who I was going to go to when I wanted an answer, and I also knew that if he didn't want to tell me, I could ask him in another way......"

When the cynical decadence faded, the sharpness, paranoia, and indifference in Konstantin's eyes were no different from those of the madmen in Gotham.

Schiller, dressed in a suit, stood next to Morpheus, straightened up, put his hands in the pockets of his trousers, and turned his head to look at the rainbow skyline in the distance of the Dream Country, at this time, he and Konstantin's shadow coincided, and the temperament of the two was inexplicably similar.

Their attitudes are similar in this matter, and no god has the right to refuse to answer their questions because of his status as a god.

If you invite them to be guests in a civilized way and you can't get an answer, then pick up a gun and point it at people, demons or gods, it's the same for them.

Morpheus was lying on the ground, his eyes were looking at the sky, he was not actually injured, the mental damage was much greater than the physical damage, as soon as he saw the emptiness around him, a barren dream country, and then thought about the follow-up repairs, Morpheus knew that his long career was coming to an end.

"You don't have dreams." Morpheus's eyes looked a little dull at the sky of the dream country, where there were colorful clouds and misty fog, and he said, "You...... And you, and the guy standing in the bow of the boat, you won't have sweet dreams. ”

He was referring to Konstantin crouching in front of him, Schiller standing beside him, and Batman looking out from afar from the ship.

"It's not a curse, it's just that I'm telling you the fact that only those who don't know the existence of the Dream Realm can get a true dream."

"When you know that your dreams were made by me, and that there is a special place for all the dreams you have, you will never have sweet dreams."

"This is the rule of the dream country, only those who are willing to give up the truth, not think about the origin and destination of the dream, and sleep peacefully with the expectation of having a true dream."

"And you, you damn truth supremacists, you broke in here and learned the truth about the dream, and the dream won't come to you anymore."

Morpheus rolled his eyes, looked at Constantine, and said, "When you come here to me for a sweet dream, instead of lying on the bed, relaxing your body, and closing your eyes with hope, you have lost the qualification to dream, and all the people in this world who know the existence of the Oneiroi will no longer dream." ”

Morpheus looked at Konstantin and said, "You are completely self-inflicted, you have made a deal with too many demons, they will go to your dreams to harass you because you owe them a debt, they appear in your dreams are not nightmares, it is purely them who harass your soul, this is not my business." ”

"And the reason why I am willing to agree to your other request is because there is a kind of people in this world, born with powers that are different from others, or curses, they are riddled with disasters and blood, but they have no other choice."

"Are you sympathizing with me?" Konstantin asked him.

Morpheus took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, and said, "You and this person broke into the dream realm in one go, threw a big bomb here, and blew my home beyond recognition, and you actually asked me if I was sympathizing with you?!"

”

Konstantin stood up and looked at the sky of the Dream Realm, and from this angle no one could see if he felt sadness because of this truth.

Perhaps, chasing a dream seems very naïve, not like what an adult should do, nor like what Constantine, the detective of hell, should do, but he still stubbornly wants to get the truth.

Konstantin was silent for a moment, then turned to look at Batman and said in a voice that Batman could just hear, "...... That's magic, and when you're trying to find the truth, you've lost everything. ”

He took a few puffs of cigarette and exhaled the smoke, and that prodigal smile crept up his face again, and he said to Schiller in a brisk tone: "Okay, it seems that this matter is over, and you have paid it off before I helped you deal with those guys who glow green." ”

He threw the almost extinguished cigarette butt to the ground, stomped it with his foot, then bent down, reached out his hand, pulled Morpheus up, and said to him, "I'm sorry, I just want the truth." ”

"Don't worry." Schiller took another cigarette from his suit pocket and lit it, he took out another one and handed it to Morpheus, who didn't take it with a dark face, but Schiller didn't mind.

"He came to you just to find an answer, but I'm not, I don't need a dream." Schiller looked at Morpheus, his eyes sent a chill down his back, and soon, Morpheus realized that this was not his delusion.

"That's right, Konstantin told me the story of how he met you, and I heard that you have believers, right?"

Morpheus snorted angrily, but he didn't refute either, seeing that Schiller had been staring at him, he could only say: "It's also very troublesome to manage dreams, everyone's share of dreams and nightmares is different, and the combination of elements in dreams is also different, I need someone to help me manage these." ”

"Although humans are not the most diligent in their work, you have the deepest understanding of dreams, and your brains are quite flexible, so I do have a few human believers, why do you ask this?"

"That's right, Your Majesty Morpheus, I know very well that your divine power is strong and your divine power is vast, but it is really difficult for a few human believers to match your noble status."

"As far as I know, your brothers and sisters should have more believers than you, and I heard Konstantin say that human souls and beliefs have special meaning for all gods......"

"I have studied the space of human consciousness and dreams for many years, and I know the vastness of the dream world, which is an unknown place that has aroused the curiosity of human beings throughout the ages......

The more Morpheus listened, the more he felt that something was wrong, he took two steps back vigilantly, and I looked at Schiller and asked, "...... What do you want??? ”

"If you want to develop your faith, you must have enough believers, and if you want to increase the number of believers, you must have someone to preach, and if you want to preach in the most efficient way, someone must organize them, perhaps...... Do you need a professional pope? ”

"I don't need to ......"

"Hear me first, I know, you're probably thinking now, when our group is gone, you'll find an unlucky guy right away, throw this mess at him, and then you'll be free."

"However, last time, I asked about fate, and I didn't get an answer, so, after leaving here, I had to find a way to find a doorbell and see if I could knock on the door of fate."

"Oh, by the way, there were some things that happened before that made me think deeply about death, and death is a very fascinating mystery to me, and I look forward to having a conversation with death......"

Morpheus's face became more and more ugly, he looked at Schiller and asked, "Are you threatening me?" ”

"Of course not, I'm just recounting a fact that could have happened."

"Do you know what the hell you're doing? To us, you, and all human beings, are as small as a mob of dust, and your life and death are only a thought to the Endless Family. ”

"Oh, is it? Then why don't you persuade fate to put my name in that book of his? ”

Morpheus was choked for a moment, Schiller restrained the smile on his face, he looked at Morpheus, and said seriously: "I remember, the last time we met, you told me that all members of the Endless Family will have to pay for their great divine power. ”

"The price of death is to witness every death, and you, perhaps the price you have to pay, is that you never know if you really exist, or if it's just a dream."

"You have to give up the divine authority of the dream god and give the dream realm to someone else, and if one day, you find that you don't really exist, or don't have to exist, then just like you will wake up from a dream, you will disappear completely."

Schiller's words are not alarmist, because in the comics, Morpheus is indeed dead, and he committed suicide.

In the comic book "Sandman", when Morpheus decides not to be the master of the dream realm, he allows the three witches to kill him, and another member of the Hentai family dies and takes him away, and when the dream god chooses to die, it means that the dream wakes up.

Like all dreams, when the dream is shattered and people wake up from the dream and return to reality, that dream is gone forever, and there will be no second dream of the same kind in this world.

Perhaps, this is the price that Morpheus has to pay for his greatness, as long as it is a dream, there will be a day when he will wake up.

However, Schiller has a way to make a dream never wake up, because, in his consciousness space, the dreamer and the person who controls the real world are not the same personality, which means that he has many endless dreams.

"I remember, when we first met, you said you had never seen the Tower in anyone's dream world."

"Since you're already planning to give up your current job, why don't you book a room with a beautiful view and comfortable conditions for your retirement trip in advance?"

Morpheus opened his mouth for a moment, he didn't expect that Schiller was here to talk to him about this, but he was not stupid, he said, "...... So who caused me to give up my current job? ”

Konstantin looked down at the flowers and plants beneath his feet, and Schiller looked up to count the clouds in the sky.

Morpheus sighed, he also had to admit that he wanted to let go of the dream country and find a new master for this place, but it was not entirely because Schiller came here to cause trouble.

He is one of the more human gods in the Endless Family, because it is not exactly a concept of rules, so it will also be affected by all kinds of infections, because of the dreams he manages, the dreams of human beings are varied, and Morpheus will be more or less affected.

"Perhaps, I should tell you a fact that will make you feel a little more balanced." Morpheus said a little helplessly: "It's not just you who don't have dreams, but also me. ”

"Since the day I was born, I have been faced with endless work, such a long and endless life, it is not a dream, if it continues like this, I will not be able to bring dreams to others."

Morpheus, as the master of the dream world, has almost unlimited powers, he is the dream, the dream is him, and if something goes wrong with him, the dreams of all creatures in the universe will be affected.

As soon as he himself began to get bored with the endless work, the source of sweet dreams dried up, and if it went on like this, all living beings were left with nightmares.

So, when he realized that he was no longer passionate about his job, he knew it was time for him to retire.

Schiller's ringing of the doorbell and the act of breaking in the boat can only be said to have accelerated the speed of Morpheus's retirement, but without him, Morpheus would eventually abandon the dream realm and return to the embrace of death, just like in the comics.

When Morpheus's attitude began to waver, Schiller was keenly aware of this, and he said:

"Actually, I didn't come here on a whim."

"I am a very experienced pope, and if you don't believe me, I invite you into my dreams, and the gods I have believed in will confirm what I say......"
