Chapter 205 Awakening the Stranger
In Alka's own room.
At this moment, he was leaning against the head of the bed and thinking. This idea had already existed when he first discovered that it was a human's dream.
By waking that person up in the dream, we can get more information.
However, when Alka first saw the man's dream, he had no idea where the man was, nor did he know his true situation at the moment.
But after a day of exploration, Alka had learned a lot about the island.
Through a complete map and the treasure on the map, we can clearly know how dangerous this island is.
Just now when he was in the dream, he also asked about the man's current condition, although he did not get any answer.
He wakes up at this time, and will make a final summary of this information before deciding whether to wake him up from his dream.
Among the consequences of awakening the enemy, the only negative situation that might bring them is that the owner of the dream is the culprit who caused all the problems on the island.
In this case, Alka's awakening is likely to reveal some information.
Let their actions tomorrow be unexpected.
There are risks, but for Alka and his team, they have absolute initiative.
There is also a treasure hunting system to help analyze the information. No matter whether the information he said is true or false, Alka can consider it.
And by then, these light spots will be reflected correctly.
Thinking of this, Alka immediately lay down and quickly fell into a dream.
Without any pause, he flew quickly towards the dream bubble and soon saw the existence of the dream bubble.
The scene in the dream at this moment was no different from when he had just left.
He landed on the deck, entered the central command room, and sat next to the man again.
But Alka did not touch it immediately to wake it up.
After thinking for a while, a mirror appeared on his face.
He reached out and tapped the mirror, and the mirror on his face shattered instantly. Then the special effects formed by the mirror fragments completely covered Alka's face.
Pink mist poured out from the crystal on his chest, enveloping Alka.
Then his clothes were changed.
He put on a black top hat on his head, a black formal suit on his body, and a civilized walking stick appeared in his hand.
No matter what the identity of the person in front of you is, disguise is essential.
After everything was ready, Alka stood beside him, wearing a pair of fitting white gloves, and placed his hand on the shoulder of the dream master next to him.
With Alka's touch.
The man in front of him kept his eyes fixed on the deck ahead, and then confusion appeared in his determined eyes.
Confusion quickly turned into clarity.
The hands that were originally clasped in front of the chest fell down naturally.
He turned his head and looked around.
"This...Steel Melody is intact? Am I dreaming?"
Then he suddenly jumped to the side, and fell down, not sure whether it was because of physical weakness or some other reason.
He did not get up immediately after falling to the ground, but moved back twice suddenly to distance himself from Alcala.
Then he looked at Alka with a very wary look.
Looking at the strange person in front of me, if he was a human.
After all, Alka's entire face now is a special effect made up of broken mirrors.
"Who are you? Why are you on this ship?"
Alka folded his hands in front of him, supported by the civilization staff, and turned his head slightly to look at him.
Looking at Alka's face when he turned his head, the man shrank back again.
"This is your dream, and I...you can call me a magician."
"Is this my...dream?" he repeated softly, then leaned against the wall next to him and pushed himself up with his feet.
After looking at Alka vigilantly for a few times and making sure that Alka did not make any additional movements, he turned to look at the deck outside, and then looked at the environment here.
He looked at the surrounding environment very carefully, as if trying to tell whether it was real or fake.
Alka just observed the man in front of him.
Hanging hands, weak steps, and a staggering body.
This person's situation in reality is much worse than he thought.
Being suddenly awakened from a dream can reflect his physical condition in reality very clearly.
For example, his hanging hands. Whether he fell to the ground or stood up, he let his hands hang naturally, without any intention of using his hands to assist in actions.
He didn't even have the natural reaction of falling to use his hands to support himself, and just like that, he hit the ground hard.
This performance clearly showed Alka that there must be something wrong with his hands in the outside world, they must be broken.
Just like Lucelia in the past, when she dreams normally, she can walk like a normal person. Once she regains consciousness, she will bring the situation in reality into her dreams.
He collapsed to the ground on the spot.
Looking at the man's weak appearance and slightly bent body, this is a sign of hunger.
While Alka was observing him, he was also observing the ship and looking at Alka out of the corner of his eye.
Finally he was sure that this was indeed a dream.
"You came into my dream and woke me up. Is there something wrong?"
He was basically certain that it was the person in front of him who woke him up.
Even if it's not him, it's related to him.
Alka turned to look at him, then asked quietly: "Do you know where you are in reality?"
The man looked at him.
After a moment of silence, he spoke: "On the forward route, it should be on an island outside the Isolation Gate of the Ocean of Confusion."
Hearing this, Alka nodded.
Then he said, "I am also on the forward course. On such a course, I met a human whose dream was very strange, so I came in to take a look out of curiosity."
After Alka finished speaking, he saw that the man in front of him had begun to raise his hands slightly.
Did he find out? His hands were back.
He was able to gain some control so quickly, which shows that he lost his hands not long ago, so it is definitely not a congenital problem.
" You are on the right track too," he murmured.
Then he frowned, as if thinking about something.
Alka was not in a hurry and waited quietly.
"You woke me up, you must want to know something from me, feel free to ask, if I know.
But if possible, I hope you can come to where I am and rescue me."
He looked at Alka and said sincerely.
Hearing this, Alka smiled slightly, but the smile was blocked by the broken mirror effect.
This guy is very smart. He understood the current situation so quickly. It seems that his situation outside is really very, very bad.
I might very well be his last straw.
"Very well, if it is feasible, I will come to help you when I pass by where you are, provided that there is nothing wrong with what you said."
"Of course, it should be so."
Alka nodded, then turned to look at him.
"Do you understand your current situation? In reality."
The man nodded and said, "I understand. Although I don't know the exact time, I probably have been out there for many years.
I was trapped on an island, unable to move in reality, and I didn’t even know where I was. Due to special reasons, I was imprisoned and fixed in the state I was in at that time. ”
Then his expression became a little lonely: "I am still alive and can still dream, and I can still feel my hunger, which means that my team has encountered an accident.
But the fact that I am still alive means that the enemy may not be in good condition either."
So, are the two ships staying on the island hostile to each other?
Alka nodded in understanding, then motioned for him to continue.
"At that time, our team had a fierce conflict with our enemy. During the conflict, I was seriously injured and received temporary treatment, which was a certain state of confinement.
This condition will immobilize the person and make them unable to move freely. Although it is extremely unbearable, it can effectively save their lives and ensure that they can hold on until they can receive treatment.
Our ship and the enemy ship were moved to the sky by some powerful spell and were falling downwards, and I lost consciousness at that moment. "
Having said that, without waiting for Alka to ask any questions, he gave a summary of the situation where he was at the moment.
"But now that I am neither dead nor out of this state, the situation outside is likely to be a lose-lose situation, or even a total death."
This is a very reasonable speculation, unless his team deliberately kept him in this state.
In his opinion, such a possibility is almost non-existent.
Alka nodded in understanding.
That is to say, he is now in a state where he can feel the passage of time and feel hungry.
But because of some abilities of his teammates, his state and actions are fixed.
It is equivalent to a soul fixed in a body.
The fact that he has no mental problems shows that he has a strong will.
If he was telling the truth.
But what he said did fit in with what they had seen on the island during the day.
The two ships really looked like they had fallen from the sky, both in their broken pieces and in the impact they had on the surrounding environment.
"What's the name of your team? Who are your enemies?" Alka asked after waiting for a while.
The man in front of him did not hide anything in response to such a question . He slowly said, "My team belongs to the Holy Machine Church. It is an excavation team under the church called Cross Hands. As for our enemy, it is a team led by a saint from the Apostate - Flesh and Blood Sublimation Church."
Apostate... It seems that the scarlet evil spirit that I met last time was also an apostate of the Holy Machine Church, and he also formed a sect of his own.
Apostates are a characteristic of the Holy Machine Church?
Alka couldn't help but think so, mainly because the two pieces of information related to the Holy Machine Church involved the existence of apostates.
But no matter what, if this information is true, the treasure information will definitely be expanded.
"Does the leader of your team and this rebel hold a treasure?"
The man nodded without hesitation.
"They all have them. The treasure held by our team leader is called the Ring of Light. Many people know it. As for its specific function, I cannot tell you."
Alka nodded in understanding.
After all, the leader of his former team may not be dead, and who knows the specific circumstances.
“Thank you for your understanding, but I can tell the apostate the information about the treasure.
Although I don't know the specific name of that treasure, it was once a treasure in the hands of the church. It is said to have a great bonus in the creation of spell constructs."
Upon hearing the information about this treasure, Alka's eyes narrowed slightly.
Spell constructs... He instantly thought of the undead monsters he encountered on the island yesterday, and the constructs that supplemented their limbs. The connection between the two was a little too great.
Is it possible that this treasure was the cause of the incident?
"Then do you know this apostate's main method of attack?"
This was a very easy question to answer, but the man in front of him shook his head in embarrassment.
He explained: “The day when we clashed with the apostates was the first time I saw them, so I didn’t know much about their attack methods.
Especially the leading saint. I was on the verge of death before he made his move. My position on the ship was just a mechanic, belonging to the logistics unit. "
Hearing this Alka nodded.
A mechanic... What kind of job is this? Is it unique to the Ocean of Confusion?
"What's the mechanic?"
When the man heard Alka's question, he knew immediately that the person in front of him must be from other sea areas.
Although such rebellion had been confirmed before, it was now almost certain.
After all, the profession of mechanic is well-known to everyone in the sea area where he is located, and it is a very normal profession.
Thinking of this, he said: "A profession that constructs precise castings can be regarded as a branch of the caster, or an advanced profession.
Compared to a caster, you need to learn more, more profound knowledge, and more sophisticated techniques. "
Hearing this, Alka nodded. Although it was slightly different from what he thought, it was basically the same.
It seems that constructs and similar technologies are very advanced in the Ocean of Light.
"If I came to the island you mentioned to rescue you, what would you suggest?"
"Well... I don't know the situation outside, but it's definitely not safe, so be careful."
Alka nodded in understanding.
"I've said so much, but I still don't know your name. What's your name?"
"Simon, Simon Publan." Simon replied quickly.
Alka nodded, then stretched out his hand, shook it with him and said, "Okay Simon, I hope you are lucky enough that I will have the opportunity to rescue you."
Then Alka came onto the deck in front of him and flew up into the sky until she disappeared.
He walked away very decisively, without giving Simon any chance to speak.
"This unknown gentleman seems to be asking some strange questions." Simon muttered to himself.
All the questions Alka had just asked seemed to be of no importance.
So he woke himself up from his dream, what exactly did he want to know ?
Or was it just as he said, he just came in to wake him up out of curiosity because he saw a human dream appear in another place.
But no matter what, he was able to tell from some of Alka's answers and questions that the unknown gentleman wanted to save him.
These are all questions raised around his current situation.
That's enough.
This finally made him feel a little relieved. He was almost driven crazy by the situation outside.
Regardless of whether that gentleman would save him or not, at least he would wake himself up from his dream, and this would be the best day he had in these years.
Thinking of this, he sat down on the floor, leaning against the wall next to him.
From here you can see the surroundings and it is no longer dark, although you can still feel hunger.
But enough is enough.
At least he was able to move.
Just lay there for a while.
He looked at the blue sky and suddenly frowned.
So here comes the question.
How do I get out? How do I wake up?
Although this state is also good.
…
Alka has now returned to his dream.
"I wonder if Simon will think I did it on purpose after he knows he can't leave the dream. In any case, I'll bear with him for now."
He deliberately did not tell Simon how to wake up, nor did he help him wake up.
Alka has already proved it with Lucilia and Xiadeti.
It is quite difficult to wake up alone, especially when Simon's soul and mental state are extremely bad.
In addition, given his frozen state, no one from the outside world would push him and wake him up.
Although Alka felt that with his strength and willpower, he might be able to wake up with his own abilities after some time.
But this will definitely be a long process, and the time required is what Alka wants.
The time in between is enough for Alka and his team to take action and explore the island.
In this way, no matter whether Simon is an enemy or a friend, it will not be easy to disturb their exploration.
It's just a little layer of insurance on the Alka.
After a brief rest, Alka woke up directly.
The sky was just beginning to brighten slightly, and it was still a long time before dawn.
After a simple wash, Alka took out the map from his desk.
Looking at the light spot above, he reached out and clicked it.
He is now going to do a final check of the information. After last night's communication, more information should appear.
The expanded information will greatly help their exploration today, and they can also use this information to know whether the person is lying or not.
Thinking of this, Alka stretched out his hand across the map and first clicked on the most important golden light spot.
Come, let me see whose treasure is left there.
