Chapter Fifty-Nine: Coming Again (Asking for a Monthly Pass)

The "Noodle Man" danced again.

In this way, Lumien confirmed that the mysterious dance did not fully excite the black thorn symbol on his chest, that is, the pattern appeared but the accompanying terrifying sound was almost absent, and there was only a small illusory whisper.

This is a great benefit for him to take advantage of the "specialness" of dreams.

But at the same time, he found two problems:

One is that the dance moves of the "Noodle Man" are extremely difficult, and some even violate the structure of the human body, only its flexibility is exaggerated to the point that it looks like a monster without bones and fascia can be completed, although Lumian is an extraordinary person, and a "hunter" with a greatly enhanced body, he also has no confidence in himself, and he feels that if he jumps in such a complete circle, it is either a torn ligament, or a muscle strain, and maybe a fracture may occur.

The second is that this mysterious dance seems to be able to really pry the natural forces around it, with a transcendent charm, so that after remembering it for a while, Lumian found that his spiritual consumption was extremely high.

"After reading this, I have to go back to rest." Lumian looked at the "Noodle Man" who danced the "Mysterious Dance" for the third time, and sighed silently.

The spirituality of the "hunter" is really useless!

And after today's incident, he can almost confirm that the hidden being corresponding to the thorn symbol is closely related to this dream ruin.

There are both the black marks of the parish priest and the dancing monsters that can inspire the thorn symbol, so it's surprising to say that it has nothing to do with that hidden being!

Thinking of the same symbol on the chest of the parish priest, and thinking that the ruins of the dream also restarted with reality, caught in a loop, Lumien became more and more convinced of Aurore's speculation:

There may be a key to de-circularity hidden in the depths here, if not all, of it, but there should be a very important part.

That's why the mysterious lady kept suggesting me to unlock the secrets of the ruins of my dreams? The more Lumian thought about it, the more hated he became, and he raised his left hand, which was not holding an axe, and made a lewd gesture of "I X you XX" to the black thorn symbol on his chest.

He didn't worry about whether he would anger the other party, not to mention whether the hidden being could sense it or not, whether he could see it, just the fact that he had fallen into the time loop he had brought, and the people around him were stranger and more dangerous than the other, which made Lumian feel that the problem would not be any more serious.

After watching the dance for the third time, Lumian rubbed his somewhat empty head, and against the slight heat in his chest, he left the ruins and returned to his home on the other side of the wilderness.

Before he left the dream, he tried to consolidate the part of the dance he had memorized, and he almost missed his waist, breaking the ligaments in his knee and tearing the muscles in his inner calf.

"Shit, that's not something a normal human can do!" Lumian cursed and lay down on the bed.

Because of the great spiritual consumption and the depth of weariness, he quickly fell asleep.

…………

When Lumien awoke, it was just dawn, the sun had not yet risen, and the red moon had lost its brilliance.

He sat up straight slowly, with a sense of satisfaction after a deep sleep, and the depleted spirituality was perfectly replenished.

Walking to the window, Lumien pulled back the curtain to let the morning light from outside let in the house.

The next second, his eyes froze.

The creature that was larger than the average owl reappeared in the elm tree not far away, looking at him condescendingly.

Lumian quickly came back to his senses and opened his mouth:

"Aurel! Auror! ”

Quick, the suspect is coming!

Keep track of it!

Hearing the shout, the owl spread its wings and flew to the edge of the village.

It flew lower and lower, and soon disappeared into the woods on the edge of the village of Cordu.

It was a few seconds before Auror, dressed in a white silk nightdress, entered Lumian's bedroom.

She asked, with a look of chagrin:

"The owl?"

"Yes." Lumian looked out the window, "Did the 'white paper' keep up?" ”

Aurore pulled down her long golden hair and said hatefully:

"Why does it always appear at the time of hell?

"I was sleeping soundly just now, and I was woken up by your shouting, and before I could release the 'white paper', it flew away."

"Didn't you say that you can't sleep well when you have something in your heart?" Lumian instinctively replied.

Aurel gave him a blank look:

"Always having a bad night's sleep can affect your mental state and lead to signs of loss of control.

"People, always nervous, restless, and fearful at the beginning, and numb when you get used to it, sleep well to stay awake and sane."

"I'll have to wait until next time......" Lumien regretted.

Aurore thought for a moment:

"Let's summarize the pattern of its appearance, we can't keep guarding the stump and waiting for the rabbit to hit itself, and besides, we have to rest, we can't keep it all the time."

Lumian thought back to the previous few times:

"It's the late night until the morning......"

"Then why this time?" Aurore further asked, "This can only be regarded as a performance, not a pattern, if you think about it, the few times it appeared, the corresponding night, or the first half of the night, what did you do, did you repeat the same behavior?" ”

"I've been exploring the ruins of my dreams,......" Lumian didn't hide from his sister and began to recall, "Before it appeared for the first time, I killed the first monster in the dream, and before the second appearance, I should have used meditation to stimulate the symbol on my chest and found its own 'special', the third time, I took a potion in my dream and became a 'hunter', and the fourth time, that is, today, I, I found a way to stimulate the 'special' of dreams to a certain extent with less damage." ”

"What's the solution?" Aurore blurted out.

Lumian tells the story of "Noodle Man" and its dance, as well as his own attempts.

Aurore was thinking about the owl as she listened, and when her brother had finished speaking, she said thoughtfully:

"That owl coming to see you seems to have something to do with the fact that you've made significant progress in your dream exploration......"

Belch...... Lumian thought about it, and his eyes gradually lit up:

"Definitely!

"The first time I killed a monster, the first time I showed 'special', the first time I took a potion, the first time I stepped into the path of transcendence, the first time I found a way to take advantage of that 'special' ......

"Similar major developments have a certain reaction in reality, and the owl noticed it and came over to make a certain observation? Oh, this smells like that. ”

Aurel gave an "um" sound:

"Then we can consciously create similar opportunities to see if we can crouch down to that owl."

"I think the next time it appears will be after I've mastered that mystical dance and can really use the 'special' of the chest symbol in my dreams." As he pondered, Lumian smiled maliciously, "When the time comes, I'll tell you before you try to dream, and you're ready." ”

Aurore thought for a moment and nodded:

"I hope to find out who the owl is associated with and what role it plays in Kordu's anomaly......

Lumian asked:

"Aurel, uh, sister, do you know anything about that kind of dance?

"You know, I'm just illiterate in the occult."

Aurore pulled over the chair in front of the Lumian wooden table, sat down, pondered for a while, and said:

"Several notes mention that in ancient times, at the beginning of the Fifth Age and throughout the Quaternary, there were some great ritual magics.

"In those ritual magics, there are not only a large number of sacrifices, but also a lot of participants, who please the target existence through special dances in exchange for a response.

"In fact, in terms of rituals and rituals themselves, dance was widely believed to be able to influence nature and communicate with the gods in the beginning, and its effect was close to the combination of transcendent language and herbs, essential oils and other items."

In the world where Aureel and Lumian live, history is divided into five epochs, the first is the Age of Chaos, the second is called the Age of Darkness, and the third is called the Age of Cataclysm, but Auroel heard a pen pal mention that this is also known as the Age of Glory.

The Fourth Age is the Age of the Gods or the Age of the Gods, and the Fifth Age is the present, starting from 1,358 years ago, called the Age of Black Iron.

Among them, the history of the first three periods is impossible to verify, only myths and legends remain, and the Quaternary period has occasional documents, materials, notes, ruins, mausoleums, ancient cities, etc., but the overall history seems to be shrouded in fog, only a faint outline, and this is also due to the fact that the theological books of the seven major churches often mention some stories of the fourth age.

After listening to his sister's explanation, Lumian had a guess:

"The 'Noodle Man' is dancing to please the hidden being corresponding to the thorn symbol, hoping for a response or a gift?

"Is it missing a large part of its rituals, so the effect is extremely poor? Or is it that the problem with the dream ruins itself has led to failure, and can only invoke a little power contained in that symbol within me?

"Hehe, it's like I'm the god who saw the dance of the 'Noodle Man' and was pleasing by it, so I decided to highlight the symbol and give a certain response."

However, this is actually completely out of Lumien's control, belonging to the spontaneous reaction of that thorn symbol.

Aurel smiled:

"You're more like the carrier of that symbol, a tool man in a sense."

She paused for a moment and said thoughtfully:

"I suspect that the dance was 'invented' specifically to please or communicate with the hidden being to whom the thorn symbol corresponds, otherwise it would not have been reacted to by a single symbol......

"And, according to your description, it's not something that ordinary people can jump, it has to be an extraordinary person with special enhancements to do it.

"But the sequence 9 and sequence 8 corresponding to the twenty-two paths, I know what they are called, and I have a certain understanding, none of them can dance that kind of dance, and the performance of 'Noodle Man' is not like that of a higher sequence, otherwise you won't be able to escape at all."

"Maybe it's not within the twenty-two paths, it's a gift from some hidden being?" Lumian thought of the mysterious lady's words.

Oroel looked out the window and pursed her mouth:

"I don't know if this has anything to do with the 'man in the ring', the power equal to Sequence 9 or Sequence 8?"

"Yes." Lumian suddenly laughed, "I'll name it, Sequence 9 corresponding to 'Man in the Ring', 'Noodle Man'!" ”

Aurore couldn't help but look up at the ceiling.

The siblings exchanged ideas for a while, and then went downstairs for breakfast.

After ten o'clock in learning Hermes, Lumian went out with important props.
