Chapter 44: The Eternal Dream
The Rorsted Islands are the fulcrum of the Kingdom of Rune's rule in the Central Sunian Seas, and are also a key diocese of the Church of the Storm, where a senior deacon who can participate in the Council of Cardinals has long been stationed.
Of course, a pirate at the level of a general may not be able to alarm such a big man, let alone the so-called second mate and boatswain, Deacon Córdoba Royer happily accepted the order, led two "substitute punishers" squads, activated the seals "2-37" and "2-166", and ambushed a place far away from 15 Xiangshu Avenue to ensure that nothing went wrong.
In Córdoba Royer's opinion, a team of "substitute punishers" with two seals is enough to deal with the "steel" group and "Flame" Daniz, but the latter's performance of paying attention to the whereabouts of the pursuers made him a little worried, and he intuitively thought that there was a certain problem hidden, so he called an additional "substitute punishment" team.
In fact, it is enough to have "2-37...... While waiting, Córdoba Royer suddenly sighed.
In his opinion, this seal will be a nightmare for the likes of "Steel" and "Flame".
He closed his eyes, and the corresponding information naturally appeared in his mind:
"Item: 37. ”
"Name: Eternal Dream. ”
"Danger Level: '2', dangerous, cautious and restrained, only actions of more than three people or deacons, diocesan bishops can apply. ”
"Secrecy Level: Bishop, Squad Leader, and above. ”
"Sealing method: Place in boiling water. ”
"Description: Resembling a heart, dark in color, cold to the touch, hollow, and often making bagpipe-like sounds.
"This item comes from a primitive tribe of Sibailang in the southern continent, who led by spirit witches and lived a life of resting during the day and moving at night.
"A rune army conquered the tribe and obtained the object to be enshrined on the altar, and over the next week, there were incidents of soldiers going insane, going mad, and committing suicide.
"Studies have shown that as long as you come into contact with this object, you will enter a long dream, and if you are not awakened, you will stay in that illusory world forever, showing emotions such as anxiety, fear, and confusion on the outside, and gradually changing your psychological and physical state.
The awakened researcher remained unclear about reality and dreams for a long time, which led to a series of tragic events, including, but not limited to, showing affection to his superiors, kissing the mouth of a viper, suffering from depression, running naked without his clothes, and attempting to bathe in boiling water...... If they are not transferred to another city, there are only two possibilities: madness or suicide.
"This item can be exploited to cause living creatures within the target radius to enter the same dream...... The user can select a target within a certain limit, excluding companions...... The maximum range is 50 meters in radius, and exceeding it will cause a great burden on the user and leave strong mental trauma...... The user will later enter a state where they cannot distinguish between reality and dreams, and must leave the city where '2-37' is located in order to have any hope of recovery.
"There are several examples (see Addendum) of the fact that the object can affect a wide range of people around it, even when not touched, unless it is placed in boiling hot water......"
"Addendum: 1. Similar to the Nightmare effect of the Night Pathway, but more prominent and uncontrolled.
"2. Example 1: A caretaker forgot to add charcoal, causing the flame to go out and the boiling water to drop in temperature, and he soon behaved abnormally, suspected of dreaming of his beloved girl, making an enthusiastic confession to his fist gloves, and trying to have a super-friendship relationship with it......;
In the midst of his thoughts, Córdoba Royer suddenly saw Daniz "Blaze", the fourth boatswain of the "Golden Dream", who had indeed arrived at this contact point to collect information.
He gestured to the "substitute punisher" team next to him to open the golden box engraved with many symbols and magic symbols, and took out the seal "2-37" soaked in boiling water.
This gold-like box is another seal, "2-166".
It keeps the contents at their original temperature, and changes the weather to a certain extent, and the next "sun holy water" rain.
Of course, it also has a great negative effect, otherwise the "substitutes" would have used it to seal "2-37" a long time ago, instead of a temporary trick, among them, the most unacceptable thing is that no matter what object, as long as it is in contact with it for a long enough time, it can be dyed with the characteristics of life, and devoutly believe in the "eternal sun", in the "substitute punishment", there have been tables that sing the praises of the "eternal sun" every day, and every second they want to light their own candles that purify everything.
- The irascible "substitute" turned the table into a pile of firewood, and it was the candle behind it that lit it.
Seeing the figures appear one after another and rush into No. 15 Fragrant Tree Avenue, Córdoba Royer did not hesitate to press his right hand and asked the team members next to him to activate the seal "2-37".
Illusory fish scales immediately appeared on the surface of the team's palm, and he grabbed a black heart-like seal directly from the boiling water.
The melodious sound of bagpipes followed, and the night shrouded the house at 15 Fragrant Tree Avenue.
Adventurer John Smith and others have not changed their vision, still an empty living room with no furniture and Daniz the "Flame" in a black cloak, and there is no feeling of entering a dream.
They ran hard, shot hard, and used their abilities to severely injure Blaze and capture the famous pirate with a £3,000 bounty on the Death Key.
However, in the real world, they are doing high leg raises, or stretching their arms like swimming, or making guns with their fingers, and their mouths are thumping.
"Action!" Córdoba Royer left his hiding place first and rushed to the house at 15 Fragrant Tree Avenue, while the rest of the "substitute punisher" team members divided into two groups and completed the encirclement from different positions.
Before Córdoba arrived, the living room was already bright, as if a sun was rising, and the sacred and pure water droplets were like rain, sprinkled and falling, and it was the seal "2-166" that was at work.
Far away, the flying carpet was silently suspended, obscured by darkness, and as soon as "Steel" Maveti and the others saw the "Substitute Punisher" appear, they understood that this was indeed the trap of "Flame" Daniz.
"This bitch raised her to take refuge in the Storm Church!" Mai Witty growled with a frantic look in her eyes.
"Scarlet Thorns" Huntley glanced at the calm Skoll and praised it from the bottom of his heart:
"Luckily, we weren't careless. ”
"Actually, I didn't expect the stupid donkey 'Flame' Daniz to cooperate with the Storm Church. Skoll said calmly, "Perhaps, he was injured and was caught by the 'substitute punisher' and had to cooperate." ”
They were about to leave when they saw something stand out in the shadows outside the house at 15 Fragrant Tree Avenue, sticking to the ground and moving quickly into the distance.
"Blaze!" "Steel" McVetty recalled the previous failed ambush.
"Daniz!" Huntley also recognized who the guy who had tried to escape with his strange abilities was.
Skoll was stunned for a moment, but then understood:
"Either 'Flame' Daniz wanted to take this opportunity to escape from the control of the 'Substitute Punisher', or he had another trap to deal with us, but for some reason he provoked the 'Substitute Punishment', so we had to give up decisively and run away in a hurry. ”
"No matter what, this is an opportunity!" "Scarlet Thorn" Huntley glanced at the "Substitute Punisher" who had just rushed into the house and said, "As long as we grasp that short period of tens of seconds, we can kill or take away the 'Flame' in front of the 'Substitute Punisher'!"
"Steel" McVey was excited, and his eyes became extremely crazy.
After Skoll nodded, he said to the other two Extraordinary:
"You take my living corpses and puppets, stay in this position, and once the 'substitute punishment' chases after you, let them cause chaos and take the opportunity to get out of here!"
"Yes, sir. Two extraordinary pirates jumped off the "flying carpet" at the same time as the living corpses and puppets.
The peacock-blue carpet turned around and chased in front of Daniz the "Blaze".
"You're here to help us, and I'm worried that Daniz has other helpers. Squill hurried up and said to the "Scarlet Thorns" Huntley.
A smile appeared on Huntley's slightly pale face:
"Good!"
Scholl said no more, nodding to McVetty "Steel".
Relying on her condescending superiority, Mai Witty discerned the superfluous shadows that were almost non-anomalous, and judged the direction in which the target was wandering.
He jumped off the "flying carpet" like a boulder, and fell heavily to the ground, the hoarfrost condensed on the soles of his feet, and the cold and transparent ice quickly spread to the side.
The black shadow was immediately frozen in the corner!
With a click, Daniz "Blaze" struggled to break free and "grow" out of the shadows.
Huntley, on the flying carpet, cooperated well and dropped the things that had been held in his palms for a long time, which were green leaves, flowers, and thorns.
Leaves, petals, and thorns grew or joined together, clinging to and entwining Daniz the "Flame", making it impossible for him to move.
Skoll jumped out of the flying carpet and thrust the sharp scalpel in his right palm into Daniz's neck.
Poof!
He grabbed the hilt of his knife with his right hand and spun around until he was behind his target.
Daniz's head fell, and his body quickly flattened into a thin, tattered paper figure.
At the same time, "Steel" Mai Verti felt an indescribably intense hunger, only to feel that it was like a terrifying monster lurking in the darkness, quietly watching him.
No, it's not "Blaze"! As soon as the thought flashed through his mind, a blazing white fireball compressed to the extreme flew from a rooftop and smashed into his body.
"Steel" Mai Veti only made one gesture for this, and that was to raise his arm and block it in front of him.
Bang!
The flames burst and the waves of air flew wide, blocking the sight of Squill and Huntley, but they were not at all flustered and had a strong faith in "Steel".
Sure enough, Mai Veti was only in tattered clothes, and his skin was slightly white, and he was not hurt in any way.
But at this moment, he suddenly saw a figure full of madness come out of the waves of fire rolling in mid-air, obviously wearing the black cloak of "Flame" Daniz, but with neatly combed black hair, dark brown eyes without any mood fluctuations, and a thin and cold face.
Daniz has always been "Faceling" Klein, and he has always been Gelman Sparrow who is ready to hunt!
