Volume 4: No One Survives in Fantasy High School Chapter 10: The Depths of the Spirit
Dreams are the sublimation of the human spirit. They are too far from reality and too close to the void. Dreams are the distorted and sublimated enchantment of the spiritual . Practitioners often say that when a person completely controls his dreams, he has taken the first step in his practice, that is, he recognizes the existence of his own spiritual consciousness.
Dreams are false and bizarre, and any scene can appear in dreams. Their colors and rules are based on reality, but they are higher than reality. Everything is absurd under the influence of the idealism of human thinking. If you ask what dreams are, Li Lin's knowledge of mysticism has already given the answer. That is the boundary of the void that can still be explained. He is only separated from the void by a wall, and the same is true for reality. One step forward is the void, and one step back is reality.
The boundary between matter and spirit is the dream. And nightmare is undoubtedly the ugliest part of the hazy and twisted dream. It is natural that the malice and hostility poured out from the void makes humans fall into madness.
Why messages from dreams always touch people's hearts is because they plant a .
It sounds very unscientific that the physical body directly reaches the nightmare.
But Li Lin did it anyway, just because he wanted to.
“——”
Blood is the currency of the soul, the carrier of consciousness, and also the extension of the spirit. Blood is the best carrier of magic power, not mercury or other things. Perhaps those academicians may have some concerns, but Li Lin, as a wild man, never cares about such trivial matters. He will only use the simplest and most straightforward method to achieve his goals.
The blood that flowed when humans were extremely frightened was catalyzed to the peak and smeared in every corner of the dormitory. Then, according to the syllables prompted by the system, the spell to call the other world began to be chanted. Those trembling notes and the hoarse voice that was not human made the runes extend new blood under the inexplicable power, as if they had life and intertwined with each other, emitting waves of hoarse and unpleasant calls. The strange blood light began to spread inside the dormitory.
The scenery gradually began to distort.
Li Lin saw that his palm began to gradually change, just like a constantly changing monster in an absurd dream. It felt like an unfolded beach chair, as if his body was constantly extending to the surroundings, assimilating clusters of space.
The dormitory, which was neither too big nor too small, was quickly covered with various molds and mosses under the call of the rune. The ceiling and the surrounding walls seemed to be pulled back by something, and gradually softened from the original regular cube into various crazy curves. Horrible and disgusting noises gradually sounded around, accompanied by pairs of dark red eyeballs.
The space has begun to be isolated. The mushrooms in the corners of the wall showed strange smiles similar to those of humans, pulled themselves out of the ground with a sly grin, and laughed horribly at Li Lin. The originally flat walls gradually showed the appearance of rotten organs, and the organs that seemed to be alive were beating and jumping on them, making bursts of puffing sounds. The wooden door used for the isolation ceremony was quickly covered with flesh and eyeballs, and the door handle turned into a sizzling venomous snake, greedily looking at Li Lin who was still chanting the inexplicable rune in the same place.
Faced with all the terrifying and appalling changes around him, Li Lin did not waver at all. He continued to smear runes and chant those curses and malice that seemed to come from the void.
Soon, before long, everything around was covered by a layer of dazzling red light. Just like ice and snow under the scorching sun, all the corrosion and flesh disappeared, and what remained was a normal dormitory that was only slightly different from the normal world and looked a little fresh. Everything around looked normal.
Nightmare is not the world of one person, it is the collection of countless people. The chaos of countless people will always have order when summarized. Although the nightmares of the people who have spent countless years in this school may have some problems, they will never be unified like that.
On the contrary, the current look that looks more innovative and mysterious is the real nightmare world.
Li Lin opened his eyes and sighed as he looked at the world around him, which seemed to be no different. He himself had turned into a spreading, indeterminate dark structure. Other people's perception of the nightmare world was often objective, but for him, this attitude was real.
'System prompt: The Death Fear Ritual - Unsummoning you performed has been successful.'
'System prompt: You have arrived in the nightmare world.'
'System prompt: Your understanding of the power of nightmares has deepened, and it has begun to gradually erode and assimilate your body. Only in children's nightmares are there the most terrifying things in the world. You firmly believe this, and then you find that you seem to be able to do all of this. For example, become the nightmare of all living beings in this world - as long as the power continues. '
'System prompt: You have obtained the second form - diffuse darkness (false). Your form in the nightmare world is a ball of infinitely expanding darkness, and you also know what to do to close your form. For you, this is no different from instinct. But this is definitely not your original posture, nor is it the appearance that your experience can give birth to. Behind this diffuse darkness is a purer power, and you need to go through a series of adventures or self-analysis to obtain this power. This may be the opportunity for you to open your magic. However, this is not the only way, please choose your power carefully. '
"'Ah... This is the school we should really investigate ...'"
Looking at the distorted and chaotic darkness reflected in the slightly crooked mirror, Li Lin sighed from somewhere in his vocal organ.
Then the rolling darkness and the monsters that were making noises in the shadows all felt a strange call. The rolling black clouds quickly collapsed inwards and compacted. The image of a black-robed man with a black mask, which Li Lin often used, reappeared in the nightmare world. Looking at his gloved palms, Li Lin squeezed them hard and nodded. He opened the door and walked outside.
Only in the hidden map can you get good results. This is a setting that all games follow. Li Lin believes that this game will definitely not be an exception. Those messages and clues may not point to the real world, but here.
