Volume 7 The Inverted Man Chapter 76 Meanwhile
At this moment, Audrey even suspected that “Destiny’s Arrangement” didn’t let herself go to Hedlak village to investigate the custom of dragon worship, but rather, let herself realize that something was wrong, and thus resisted, and used her “virtual personality” ability in the area around Hedlak village to quietly lead her two brothers to unknowingly change their minds, and the psychic dragon discovered the special consciousness related to “Miracle City” Levihide, and drew K here. He used his “virtual personality” ability in the area around the village of Hedrak to quietly lead his two older brothers to change their minds without realizing it, and then the psychic dragon discovered the special consciousness related to the “Miraculous City” of Levihide, and drew K to him.
Even on the side of the arranged, Audrey can not help but be in awe of this, I have to say, in order to achieve such an effect, the insight into the hearts of people, the grasp of the different reactions of different people, must have a very high level, so that people will be fearful of the level of the thought of it from the bottom of their hearts.
To know, Audrey the sequence 4 “manipulator”, at that time felt that the development of things in line with their own expectations, completely satisfied their own hopes, not a little vigilance.
The psychic dragon collected the open skin membrane giant wings, looked down at the blue cloak Audrey said:
”This is a dream labyrinth pieced together by many minds, even if the one who set the trap descended in person, it would take a while to find this room, and I won’t stay long.”
It was clear that K wasn’t unaware of the trap, he just thought certain things were worth the risk.
Dream Labyrinth …… Is this an extraordinary ability of the Dream Weaver, or is it a qualitatively different ability? Audrey collected her thoughts and asked stoically:
”What do you want to know?”
The large, scaly, gray dragon buzzed:
”My name is Erihog, one of the only three ancient dragons left.”
Did K mean that K was one of the three dragons that survived from the Second Age, and that the various dragons that were now scarce in number were just the descendants of those from the Age of the Ancient Gods? Audrey nodded gently without interrupting the other party.
Behind her, in the middle of the wilderness with green and black weeds, a wooden door stood there without any support, looking extremely strange.
Erihog likewise did not waste any time, and after introducing himself, he opened his mouth and asked:
”Where did you find Leviathan?”
Audrey was prepared for this and answered frankly:
”In a book called ‘Grosel’s Travels’, rumor has it that it was made by the Dragon King Anglewild himself.”
”Grocer ……” Erihog had obviously never heard of the name and repeated it before pressing on, “What kind of book is that?”
Audrey, whose blonde hair fell softly down her back, described it briefly:
”That book contains a near-real world, and at the same time, it can inhale those who fulfill the conditions or donate their own blood into the book, allowing them to live in that world.”
Erihog said after two seconds of silence:
”Is there a collective subconscious ocean in that book world?”
”There is.” Audrey gave the answer with great certainty, “That ‘Miracle City’ Levithid I saw is in the depths of the collective subconscious ocean of the book world.”
Erihog’s snort suddenly intensified a little:
”What did you see in that Levihide?”
Audrey said in retrospect:
”A city covered in giant pillars, a magnificent palace.”
”Also, I entered the abode of the Gargoyle King, where the inner voice of every living being can be made to echo right back around. I call it the ‘Hall of Honesty’.”
”At the end of the ‘Hall of Honesty’, behind the Dragon King’s divine seat, there is an ancient and mysterious bronze door. It doesn’t know what it seals, in short, it’s so dangerous that I don’t dare to go near it at all.”
Audrey was telling the complete truth, only she didn’t mention Mr. World, Mr. Star and her own speculations.
The ancient dragon, Erihog, fell completely silent, not knowing whether it was recalling something or analyzing Leviathan’s current situation.
In the process, k’s head a little bit down, seems to bring the body from the top of the 100 meters of giant column to the ground.
Just as Audrey’s spirit tightened even more at this slightly bizarre scene and wanted to open her mouth to ask a question, Erihog suddenly raised his head.
kThe pair of pale gold vertical eyes became increasingly cold, and his voice once again echoed in the wilderness:
”Levithid ……”
In the movement that hummed like thunder, those things behind Erihog that were hidden in the deep darkness flew into clarity, presenting their outlines within the gradually glowing scene:
It was a huge stone pillar dozens or hundreds of meters high, which either stood alone or together held up a majestic but ancient palace.
These stone pillars and palaces were mainly gray and white, falling on island-like foundations, exactly the same as Audrey’s description of the “Miracle City” Leviathan.
No, this seemed to be the “Miracle City” of Leaviside.
It was not until then that Audrey realized that the ancient mind dragon, Erihog, was squatting at the top of the tallest and thickest stone pillar in Levihide.
At this moment, she vaguely felt that Erihog had undergone some subtle changes.
Between her turquoise eyes turning slightly, the sound of a metal handle being twisted suddenly came from behind her.
This …… Audrey resisted the urge to turn back violently, warily sidestepping her body and letting her gaze cast obliquely.
The lone wooden door, which had lost all its external credentials, opened back a little, revealing its visitor:
A huge, white, ears flickering, human walking rabbit.
Above the gray fog, inside the old palace, a figure covered with gray fog, sitting at the top of the long mottled table, the “Fool” position, quietly staring at the crimson star representing “justice”.
……
9 Bellotto Street, West End, Birkeland.
Wendell, who saw the two-week deadline approaching, gradually suffered from insomnia and had to rely on medication to fall asleep.
When he woke up, he was equally fidgety and extremely agitated, losing all interest in food and only forcing himself to eat the three meals delivered by his coworkers in order to maintain his physical fitness.
He had no idea what would happen when the deadline for court came and went, and there was no way to predict whether there would be an irreversible mutation in him.
This fear of the unknown left him with a breathless, fractured feeling from time to time.
There were times when Wendell even wondered if perhaps resisting a return to Utopia wasn’t a wise choice:
Given his limited experience there, if he honestly went back to Utopia and went to court to testify on behalf of Tracy, there was a not-insignificant probability that he would leave unscathed after that.
–At least so far, Wendell hadn’t heard of anyone dying or going crazy due to Utopia, and the people there were quite amiable, except for being rather creepy.
I’m just there to help, they should be grateful, not dealing with me …… The more Wendel thought about it, the more he realized that facing the danger head on would probably make him feel more comfortable than enduring the ordeal here.
Of course, he did not have any doubt about the ability of MI9 headquarters to protect him, and if that was not possible, he felt that he could only consider going to see the “Storm Lord” soon.
Wendell exhaled and sat down in his chair, picking up a novel to pass the time.
However, his irritation prevented him from getting into the storyline, and he flipped the pages more and more frequently, eventually snapping the book shut.
He then closed his eyes, ready to fake sleep for a while.
In a daze, Wendell seemed to have returned to Utopia, to the courtroom, but instead of being a witness, he assumed the role of a spectator.
He saw Tracy because of the lack of sufficient evidence, the judge ruled that self-defense was not established, transferred to the criminal court, saw the lady in tears, laughing extremely poignant.
Wendell woke up at once and stared silently at the gas wall lamp in front of him for a long time.
If it is Utopia that is in trouble, and not the inhabitants within Utopia, then my avoidance may have killed a poor young lady …… Wendell withdrew his gaze, slightly shaken, but unable to overcome the fear within.
Propping his hand on the table, he stood and walked towards the door, intending to take a soothing walk around MI9 headquarters.
After exiting the room and taking a few steps along the aisle, Wendell suddenly heard a colleague in the office next to him discussing a Utopia-related case:
”Heard about it? The latest person to enter Utopia was a carter who was giving a merchant from Utopia a ride to the Docklands when he just turned two streets and realized that his surroundings had become unfamiliar.”
”It’s necessary to remind all the carters in Berkland, well, it’s best to equate Utopia with spies to make it easier for them to understand.”
”What a frightening way to get in and out of Utopia.”
”Yes, there are times when I even suspect that the entrance to Utopia can appear anywhere.”
”There must exist some limitations, it’s not as omnipotent as we think …… Otherwise, I would have found myself in Utopia just by going to the washroom.”
”From the laws summarized so far, this is theoretically valid.”
”……”
Wendell’s forehead veins jumped slightly as he listened, suddenly feeling that even being in MI9 headquarters wasn’t all that safe.
Unless there is a demigod and half-human existence watching me at all times, it would be very difficult for me to avoid returning to Utopia, perhaps, after I wash my hands and open the door to the lavatory, I will find that outside is Utopia’s “Iris” hotel. ……No, ordinary demigods may not even be able to Stop this kind of thing, this is simply not like human beings can be accomplished, is already incomparably close to the gods …… Wendel instantly panicked, no longer able to contain the fear in his heart.
Following the fluke that had suddenly taken over his mind, he returned to his room and took out the paperwork from the utopian court from a drawer.
Immediately afterward, Wendell entered the lavatory and, while holding the document, whispered fearfully:
”I am willing to testify in court.”
”I am willing to testify in court.”
”……”
After several times in a row, he reached out and grasped the handle of the lavatory room door.
At this time, a dark raven, like a ghostly shadow, flew in through the air window and landed in the unattended corner of the lavatory.
In the next second, Wendell twisted the handle, pulled back, and opened the lavatory door.
What appeared in front of him was no longer the familiar bedroom, but a strange hall.
