To be sure, Duncan wasn't an expert in the otherworldly realm, and he lacked knowledge of the subject of dreams and spirits, but he still vaguely judged that the street should have more than just Shirley

"What I saw in my dreams". Because the ashes that were crying for help really gave him a wonderful sense of déjà vu—he thought of the factory, of the people in the factory, hidden by the veil, burned to ashes in the fire.

Of course, the ashes in the factory didn't ask him for help—the ashes gave him a more intuitive and strong signal: he saw the fire eleven years ago

"Echo". Subconsciously, Duncan thought that the ashes on the street that appeared in Shirley's dream had some connection to the ashes in the factory.

He looked up at the surroundings, and in the shaky red light, the entire street was in the aftermath of the fire, and in the falling sparks and dust, there were countless piles of ash and suspicious black shadows imprinted on the nearby walls.

"You were only six years old, and no matter how much you subconsciously observed, it shouldn't be enough to support such a huge dream—and you have to create these embers for help in the dream, and the illusion of a large area in the distance." Duncan said softly, and his voice made Shirley, who was a little nervous, suddenly feel a little more steady.

Shirley looked up and looked at Duncan One, who was standing next to her

"Mr. Duncan" was not the same as she had seen on a daily basis, and he was presented here as a gloomy and majestic captain, which, to be honest, looked quite scary, even if not like a dog

"True vision", she can also feel a deep pressure from the other party. But in the midst of a nightmare that grew stranger to her, such a powerful presence still gave her some peace of mind: at least for now, the being was on her side.

"Let's move forward and see where the scope of the dream can go." Duncan's voice suddenly came from the side, Shirley was stunned for a moment, and quickly pulled Ah Dog to follow the other party's footsteps.

Amid the faint murmurs of cries for help from the countless ash heaps, the two and a dog made their way through the streets covered in embers and sparks, and gradually walked towards the twisted and shaky shadow complex.

They walked down the street for an unknown amount of time, and Duncan had been carefully observing the changes in the scene around him, and to his strange thing, the scenery on the street was as usual.

There are no more distorted apparitions, nor do they become more blurry, grotesque, or like the one described by Gou

"Dangerous Dream Creation". Duncan stopped abruptly, his brow furrowed slightly.

"Mr. Duncan?" Shirley cast a curious gaze,

"Did you find anything again?"

“…… How far have we come from 'where we started'?" Duncan looked up at the direction he and Shirley had come from, the house where they had set out had disappeared into a hazy red mist.

"'Origin'?" Shirley was stunned for a moment,

"Oh, the room you said I dreamed of? Should...... It's a long way off, and I think I'm at least half a block away. ”

"Shirley, the situation is not quite right," At this time, Ah Dog also suddenly reacted, it looked nervously at the fog around it, and its voice was low,

"Let's stop for a moment." Shirley hadn't reacted yet, she looked confused:

"What's wrong?"

"The dream is 'centered' on the cognitive basis of the dreamer's subconscious, and the cognitive basis of your cognition in this dream is that room, and all your memories and emotions are in that room," Ah Dog quickly explained.

"The realm outside the room is a 'deduction supplement' of dreams, and theoretically, the farther away from that room, the more the scenes will deviate from reason and common sense, and the edges of dreams will become more and more absurd and dangerous, and even cliffs that disappear out of thin air, but we have come so far...... But the dream continues!" Duncan nodded lightly as he listened, he didn't have such a clear and complete theoretical understanding as Ah Gou, but his conjecture was almost like this.

Shirley finally woke up, and she took a soft breath:

"So...... I should have stepped out of my dream realm long ago, which was theoretically either distorted and unrecognizable, or it should have been nothing... So where are we now? Is this still my dream~?!" No one could answer Shirley's question, and Duncan could only look around with a thoughtful expression.

Everywhere he looked, the streets were burned and blackened, and the city after the fire was like an ugly scar, deeply slashed at the city-state, and this burning scar extended all the way to the end of his vision, and he didn't know how many blocks ran through it.

He looked in the other direction, and saw some towering buildings near the block, one of which was a factory distillation tower that was straight to the sky in the smoke and mist, and the surface of the tower was coiled with pipes and a jagged skeleton, like a strange mountain.

Duncan couldn't help but stare at the tall distillation tower, thinking that if he stood on that distillation tower, he might be able to overlook the entire fire.

Suddenly, his eyes froze. The vision that Nina had described to herself came to mind: high up, overlooking the burned city, the streets like a scar running through the entire city-state... This is what Nina saw in her dream, but it happened to be from a different perspective!

An astonishing conjecture popped up in Duncan's mind, and he turned his head to look at Shirley:

"We... You may have gone into another dream. ”

"Another dream?" Shirley was stunned,

"Whose dreams?"

"Nina's one—come with me." Duncan said briefly, then walked in the direction of the distillation tower.

He didn't summon Aye in his dreams

"Walking", because he first didn't know if the pigeon could enter this dream by walking in the spirit world like himself, and secondly, he needed Ay to help him outside

"Stand guard" and monitor if there are other supernatural forces that interfere with your actions. Luckily, the distillation tower wasn't far from the neighborhood, where it was a factory next door, and the two blocks were connected by a straight alley.

Shirley followed in confusion, unsure why Mr. Duncan said he had walked into Nina's dreams, while Duncan walked briskly and looked up at the tower from time to time.

He's trying to find Nina. If this was really Nina's dream, then the figure of the other party should be standing on the distillation tower, which is already the tallest building as far as the eye can see, and the position is also perfectly suitable for overlooking the entire fire.

But until the two of them were about to arrive at the factory, Duncan didn't see any of them on the distillation tower.

He had some doubts in his heart, but before he could think more about it, a strange feeling of being watched suddenly came from not far away, which made him stop suddenly.

Duncan looked up at the direction where he felt something, and in his field of vision, a tall and thin figure wearing a strange long black coat and holding a large black umbrella appeared around the corner of the street at some point!

In this dream world full of fire traces and embers on the street, such a strange man with an umbrella suddenly appeared, not to mention how strange this scene was, and this time not only Duncan saw the figure, but even Shirley next to him suddenly stopped.

"There's a guy over there!" Shirley exclaimed.

"You saw that too?" Duncan subconsciously asked, and the moment his words fell, a vague and strange grunt suddenly came from the direction of the figure not far away.

It wasn't any language Duncan knew, and even the overly complex and distorted trills and overlapping echoes in his voice made him suspect it wasn't any at all

"Language", but he still heard a hint of consternation in the voice—the one with the umbrella

"The Weirdo" seemed very surprised, as if he had never expected to see a few people wandering around

"Uninvited guests". And at the moment when this grunt fell, the strange figure with an umbrella suddenly moved!

Duncan couldn't see what the other party had done, but out of the corner of his eye, he keenly noticed that several dark shadows suddenly jumped out of the hem of the other party's long coat, and those were pure

"Shadow", along the nearby walls and streets, quickly rushed to this side, and then the figure with an umbrella in the distance disappeared out of thin air, and in the next second, his body resurfaced with the help of one of the rapidly jumping shadows, as if teleporting directly in front of Shirley!

But Shirley had already reacted at this time, and she had the same speed as the ghost hound, and she had the same fast reaction speed as the ghost hound, and at the moment when the figure had just condensed and had not had time to move, she had suddenly raised her right hand one by one

"Anyway, it's definitely right to fight first!" The girl yelled and screamed, with a strange excitement, and the black chains in her hands creaked, and the dog was rounded and smashed into the opposite side.
