Chapter 155: Dreams and Reunions

As for the island in the sky where the golden chariot appeared, no one, including Klein, who was eager to learn about the occult, mentioned going up to "take a walk".

Unless you want to become the same black footprints as that hapless pirate.

Rounding the four pillars that support the island, the Future continues to make its way through the almost windless sea, and although the classical sailing ship is not equipped with steam power, the mast with the bizarre symbol is clearly able to draw strong forward momentum in the breeze and thus does not slow down.

The next few hours of the journey became boring, and the vast expanse of the sea was only one ship, and all that remained was illusory islands in the distance, almost indistinguishable distances, the occasional fire floating on the surface of the sea, and the scorching sun that never changed.

Does the "Star General" really know the route, she can't discern the direction at all...... Looking at the repetition of the scenery, Angel had countless doubts in her stomach, but she had only been in this sea for a few hours, and Gadelia also showed a gesture of being extremely familiar with her, so she decided to take a look for the time being.

Crane also squinted in the noonday sun, scanning the unchanging surface of the sea, trying to find clues to the mermaid.

That is until a pirate cautiously approaches them and informs them that it is time to eat.

After Angel rescued all the pirates through "sedation" last night, and protected everyone who were thrown in the air at breakfast, most of the members of the "Future" have reached the level of respect for her to the point of "their own people", and even the "crazy adventurer Gelman Sparrow" with her companion with a gloomy face and scandal is much better.

As long as he doesn't deliberately get close to the "star generals", ......

Angel and Crane had followed the pirate to the inner cabin when they felt the seemingly eternal sun outside the door and window suddenly dim, and in a matter of seconds, the cabin was plunged into darkness, and only a lone oil lamp hung on the bulkhead, which was extremely desolate.

A gust of wind blew, and the three of them were all cold down their spines, and Angel hurriedly went to the porthole to look at the sky, and found that the whole sea had been shrouded in a night sky so thick that no stars could be seen.

From noon to midnight, how many seconds did it take?

Just as she was stunned, the voice of the "star general" Gardelia came to her ears:

"Everyone goes back to their rooms, puts themselves to sleep, and waits for them to wake up naturally."

"What if you can't sleep?"

Walking out of the restaurant, Frank, the "toxin expert" who happened to meet several people, muttered, he still had a touch of cream on his lips, apparently just had a full meal.

"Then when we wake up, we'll find that you've disappeared from the ship and can't be found."

The voice that had been amplified from the captain's room replied.

With the experience of dealing with the "golden chariot" in the morning, Angel did not dare to ignore Gadelia's order, and after saying hello to Klein, she returned to her room alone, went directly into the bed, and quickly fell asleep with meditation.

Soon, she felt the sun shining on her eyelids, and the light shining through the skin into her eyes, making her feel a tingle of itching.

It's over?

Angel opened her eyes and pushed the futon away with both hands, only to find that she was not lying in the cabin of the Future, but on her back on a worn carpet.

In front of her, a row of floor-to-ceiling windows emitted a warm dim glow, illuminating the room she was in.

Surrounded by neatly arranged shelves of books of various styles, and closer to the carpet are long tables and chairs that stretch out in the sunlight.

One minute he was in a single room on a lonely boat at sea, and the next minute he was in a library-like place, which made Angel's mind blank for a moment.

But she immediately reacted that it was some kind of "dream".

The evidence was not only that she had moved here without warning, but also that the "Hidden Sacred Emblem" on her right wrist was radiating a faint aura of peace in her heart.

So, after the "Future" enters the sudden night, falling asleep will come to such a dream?

And according to Gadelia, it is safe in dreams, and if you don't dream, you will disappear?

Angel thought about it, quickly got up from the ground, checked the other magical items and charms on his body, and found that they were all where he should be, and then he relaxed a little and cautiously came to the floor-to-ceiling window.

The glass of this row of windows is unusually clean and transparent, and it doesn't even look like a product of this era, so that she can easily see the scene outside.

The sky in the distance is a dusk sun, which is more like a "real-world" sunset than the real sky that reflects the noonday sun.

Below it, a mountain covered in countless walls, towers, and palaces, all magnificent, cascading upwards and almost touching the setting sun at the top, seemed to be the size of not a human abode, but a temple of the gods.

Looking down, the mountain peaks and the palace are the abyss that stretches as far as the eye can see, separating the palace from Angel's library, embraced by the setting sun, and on one side is a steep cliff, with dry trees and buildings made of black stone.

Compared to the "dusk" on the opposite side, this side seems to be "night......

Angel grunted, and suddenly saw two familiar figures on a boulder.

It's Klein...... And the "star general" Gardelia?

Angel's vision beyond the average instantly confirmed their identity.

Are they in my dreams too? Is it a real person, or is it a phantom of my dreams? Could Nina and Frank be somewhere else?

She frowned, and countless thoughts flashed through her mind, some wanting to smash the floor-to-ceiling window in front of her and call out Crane's name, but cautiously stopped the impulsive thoughts.

Let's see if we can find our way down......

One last glance at the magnificent palace in the distance, Angel reluctantly withdrew her gaze and looked around the library in the setting sun, looking for a door or staircase.

Walking through the bookshelves that looked like city walls, Angel secretly raised her vigilance, her eyes constantly scanning between the bookshelves, and her hands touched the "good luck" revolver on her waist.

I wonder if using up ammo and charms in my dreams will consume them in the real world...... No sooner had she had come up with this strange idea than her eyes fell on a special book on the shelf.

Russell Note 5.

Sandwiched between The Spiritual Release, The Real Starry Sky and Astrology, this black-covered book is completely irregular, and there are no Russell Notes 4 or 6 around it.

The whole book of Russell's notes, the diary of the Great of the Travelers?

She immediately stopped, and her heart began to pound as if she had found a treasure.

If this is true, then I have a year, no, the "Russell Diary" of me and Klein for a whole year!

Reaching for the spine of the book until her fingers touched the soft leather cover and pulled the entire note out, Angel confirmed that it was a real book and not an illusory dream.

Of course, this itself is in a dream, and everything is not real, but this is a strange dream in the uncharted sea, and even other companions appear in the dream, maybe...... Is the note real?

Just as he was about to open the cover, a series of footsteps suddenly sounded next to Angel.

Da, da.

The voice was not fast, but it was like a blow to Angel's heart.

She immediately threw down Russell's notes, grabbed the "Good Luck" revolver with one hand, pressed it to her chest with the other, and the whole person immediately disappeared between the bookshelves and entered a state of invisibility.

Da, da.

Footsteps came from behind the bookshelf to this side, and Angel was greeted first by a pair of black leather boots, then beige slim-fitting trousers, a light brown knee-length skirt, waist-length chestnut hair, and a pair of azure blue eyes that seemed to condense the ocean.

Those eyes looked at the invisible Angel without the slightest hesitation.

A soft, but emotionless, voice came out of her mouth:

"You're looking for it again, looking for Russell's diary?"

Angel's heart froze almost in the suddenness of the start.

This figure, this dress, this tone, she had encountered at the Russell exhibition in Beckland.

The high-sequence extraordinaire who is suspected to be Bernadette, the daughter of the Emperor!

Silently lifting the stealth, Angel put away the "Good Luck" revolver, and the posture of bending slightly to facilitate the attack also changed back to a casual standing posture.

"Hello, we're meeting again," she said in response, "Bernardette...... Ms. Gustav. ”

Her temptation was not met with a response.

But the silence itself says a lot.

"I do collect the diary of Russell the Great, I said, for Mr. 'Fool'." Angel continued.

This sentence made Bernadette Gustav's indifferent expression change slightly, and the blue eyes under the straight eyebrows looked at the book of "Russell Note 5" that had fallen to the ground.

Following the other's gaze, Angel also looked at the naturally spread out black cover book, and was surprised to find that its inner pages were all blank.

Sure enough, the things in the dream were all false, just the embodiment of my heart's desire...... No, I don't want to crave any "real starry sky", "spiritual release", this dream, or this library that suddenly appeared, is it Bernadette's "design"?

She had met me in Beckland, when I revealed that Mr. Fool was collecting Russell's diary, so she used this blank notebook to test me and eventually confirm that I was a believer in Him...... But how did she appear in this dream, could it be that Bernadette also hid in the ship of the "Admiral of the Stars" and came to this sea together?

Damn, she wouldn't even want to fish me out with a real diary......

Looking at the blank notes, Angel was angry and didn't dare to tell it, so she had to pout and look at the daughter of Russell the Great, who was also a high-ranking extraordinary.

"If you need a real, complete diary, I want you to exchange it for a way to decipher his own writings, and I can also fulfill most of your requests, such as a blasphemy card that records the path of the 'witch', or some help in times of great difficulty."

Bernadette continued in her unemotional words, then turned and walked behind the bookshelf, the skirt of the beige trousers swaying, bringing the incongruous outfit to life.

But I've already seen the "Witch" card, how can she get a second "Witch"? And I can't read kanji at all, only Mr. Fool does...... No, she's actually making a request to Mr. Fool, hoping that I, a believer, will convey it for her?

Angel thought quickly, confirmed the other party's purpose, and saw that Bernadette was about to leave, and hurriedly said:

"Wait, there's one more thing," she said hurriedly, not for herself, but for some girl who had been waiting for a hundred years, "do you remember Queen Anne's Revenge?" Anne is looking for you. ”

Before she could finish speaking, she saw the black boots disappear into the cracks in the bookshelves.

Opening her mouth slightly, Angel looked at the unmanned bookshelf with some surprise, she didn't expect that the other party didn't think of the old acquaintance at all, and she didn't even stay for a moment.

Could it be that she wasn't "Bernadette Gustav", just the namesake or a descendant of some younger emperor?

If so, then Anne......

Angel's eyes suddenly bloomed, and Bernadette's blue eyes appeared in front of her, her long chestnut hair swayed, and her face, which had been indifferent, showed a different expression than before.

That's eagerness.

"You mean, Sister Anne is still alive? She's looking for me? ”
