535. The Trap Within the Mind
In the barbecue cafeteria at the station, Faneuil Fox, a fox girl who looks like a little girl, frantically complained about the dream of the frost wolf taking off the tapara: "I don't know what happened to this wolf recently, I dream every day that a group of people will lick her!" ”
"Hahaha," Sophia next to her slapped the table happily, "You see you'd better stay with me, go find a wolf, and you have to be a licking dog in your dreams!" ”
Rand drank carbonated drinks, grinning and listening to the words of the two girls, feeling that his dog had too much inner drama.
"Faneuil?" In the midst of the girls' laughter, a slightly calm voice stopped her, "I ask you, is there anyone else in her dream who has been complimenting her and flattering her?" ”
"Huh?" The fox girl thought for a moment, "Her dreams are full of those people, and she is still distributing demonic beast meat to those so-called clansmen in her dreams!" ”
Hearing this, Lili asked directly: "Then can you perceive those people of her clan, are they dreamed by herself, or are there foreign nightmares?" ”
"Hmm......" Faneuil tried to recall everything he had dreamed of the other day in Tapara, "it seems that a few people don't look right, huh?" Why can't I remember? ”
When Lili heard this, she became even more urgent: "Think about it, aren't you about to become a fox clan master with five tails?" ”
Sophia was still grinning and hugging Faneuil, not noticing that something was wrong with the fox girl's face.
Rand looked at Lili and Faneuil's faces, and asked with some curiosity, "Lili?" Is there anything special about this? ”
"If it's a normal dream, it's not a big problem," Lili shook her head, "but Tartara and Faneuil constructed the dream, and Faneuil still didn't recall the contents of the dream, so there's a problem, it's like you cast a spell and forget the type of magic." ”
"But I remember that Saranir has also been to the western border in the last few days, and has seen Tapala, and you have seen her recently, and you have not noticed the problem!"
If neither the Spiritual Master nor the Kitsune find out about the problem, Rand fears that the Frostwolf has encountered an opponent who is too strong.
"Yes, but now that Tapara is on the high level, I fear that there is someone who wants to use her dreams to drain her magic, and she also distributes food in her dreams, which in some occult schools is a metaphor for giving away her flesh or magic to others."
Seeing Wendy walk in from outside the restaurant, with a smug expression on his face, Rand fell silent, in the chat with Halkala, the ancestor mentioned more than once that there must be a legend or demigod will behind high-level professionals, high-level Warcraft, and Demon Plants, and Rand didn't understand it at that time.
Looking at the situation of the frost wolf now, he probably understood what the ancestor meant, the battle between the high-level is not necessarily a contest between magic and physics, but also at the elemental level or the psychological level, if there is a slight carelessness at any level, all the efforts in the past will become the wedding dress of others.
Wendy looked at the somewhat dull dinner table, and knew that something must be wrong, she was a little afraid that her violent beating just now was too loud and made Lili unhappy, so she asked tentatively: "What's wrong with you guys?" ”
"Wendy, did you say that I have risen to the higher rank a lot more than I have taken off the tapala?" Rand asked for no reason, much to Wendy's surprise.
"Just you? Have you forgotten that the two gods teamed up to keep you up all night? Wendy subconsciously glanced at Lili and muttered in a low voice, "If it weren't for us, would you still want to rise to the high level?" ”
"Ah, yes, yes, Wendy said yes, let's have another drink, thank you for protecting me as a Magus!" Rand grinned and raised his glass, touched it with a few girls who were not yet drunk, and continued, "Let's take it easy in our dreams, don't be in the territory from morning to night!" ”
After eating and drinking, the girls rested in the station, while Rand remained in their chairs, with Wendy by her side.
After entering Rand's kingdom, almost everyone has become more respectful towards him, but Wendy is close to him, and now the two of them are leaning together and chatting.
"Done?" Rand asked Wendy on the side, he could sense everything in the station, and the girl's fists and kicks just now were really wonderful.
"I'm sure I'm fine, but you're sure he can't affect ......" Wendy didn't continue, just gesturing behind her.
Rand nodded, but did not answer, but called the girl behind him, "Lili?" ”
"Huh? My lord? ”
Rand patted the girl next to him: "Recently, I have been to Iowa Pass a lot, and I don't think Faneuil necessarily understands the strength of her opponent." ”
Compared with the first battle against Lili's father, Faneuil is now much stronger, and has approached the high-level fox dream master, and has touched the edge of the high-level in the dream, but the dream duel is far more mysterious and dangerous than in reality, and the cognitive difference can produce miraculous effects in cross-level confrontation.
"Uh-huh, good ......" Lili lowered her head after saying a word, and was a little embarrassed to speak.
"You talk, I'm going to see Neil." Wendy gave Rand a look and walked away in amusement.
Lili, who watched her sisters leave, asked Rand in a low voice: "My lord, for you, is this really just your dream?" Or is this indeed your kingdom? Are you really a god walking in the world? ”
"You must have asked the cardinal or the handle of the knife."
Rand smiled and replied, "When you first met me, I had just become an acting baron for less than a month, and if I hadn't led my people to the galloping plains, I am afraid I would have been captured by the barbarians." ”
"However, you did suppress the will of the two beast gods in this temple."
Lili couldn't forget, she and Faneuil watched Rand hold the cat in one hand and the dog in the other, and obey the will of the two beast gods, the shock of direct confrontation with the gods, even made the fox girl give up her belief in the fox god for more than 20 years on the spot.
Rand nodded and did not deny it: "Lili, sometimes, our perception of ourselves also needs to be constantly explored, for example, before being promoted to acting baron by Rohr and Albert, I was just the fourth son of a baron; For example, before I recruited cats and dogs here, I didn't think I could fight them. ”
"Maybe one day, I will be able to be reborn and ascend the ladder of the stars and become a being praised and prayed for by mortals, but for now, I am still your high lord."
Lili nodded, in fact, this time she mustered up the courage to talk to Lante alone in her dream, and she also hoped to tell her father's situation, so that Lante could be mentally prepared, and now that he has started, Lili will no longer hide it.
