Chapter 302: The Chinese Daoist Base in the Dreamland
Liu Xing frowned, he didn't expect Zhang Jingxu to come up with such a bold idea.
It is now obvious that the bronze gate in the underground ruins is a passage to another dimension leading to the dreamland, and it is very likely that it is connected to a colony of a moon beast, or within the range of activities of a moon beast.
In this way, if you really open the bronze gate as Zhang Jingxu said, you may encounter the moon beast. Then, in terms of the behavior of the moon beast, Liu Xing and others will become slaves of the moon beast in all likelihood. After all, the moon beast is not targeting anyone. . .
However, it is also possible that there will be changes in the sea, and the dreamland behind the bronze gate may have undergone earth-shaking changes. The moon beast may be driven away by other mythical creatures, or even humans.
In the Dreamland, humans still have certain influence. After all, except for a small number of human beings who stray into the Dreamland, the vast majority of human beings enter the Dreamland intentionally, so these humans who intend to enter the Dreamland must have something to rely on. If they are not magicians, they have special skills or hold powerful props, otherwise they dare not enter places like Dreamland at will.
Therefore, in the dreamland, there are many areas controlled by human forces, and even the moon beasts dare not provoke them at will.
So Liu Xing thinks that the reason why Zhang Jingxu wants to open the bronze gate is to gamble his luck and seek help from the human forces in the dreamland.
However, Liu Xing felt that it was too risky for Zhang Jingxu to do so, because the human forces in the Dreamland also uphold the greatest "bad nature" of human beings, that is, they like to fight among themselves. Although the human forces in the Dreamland will unite in the face of threats from other mythical creatures, when there is no external threat, the human forces in the Dreamland will start to intrigue and plot against each other for their own interests.
Therefore, Liu Xing does not think that Zhang Jingxu, an outsider, will get help from the human forces in the dreamland, unless. . .
Thinking of this, Liu Xing looked at Zhang Jingxu and said, "Mr. Zhang Jingxu, I'm afraid you are not crazy. Didn't we make it clear just now that behind that bronze gate is likely to be the territory of the moon beast, and the moon beast likes to turn us humans into its slaves. Isn't it self-inflicted when we open the bronze gate now?"
Zhang Jingxu nodded, and said with a smile: "Student Meteor, you are right in saying that, but it's because you don't know what is behind that bronze gate, and I know that behind that bronze gate is a place called Dreamland."
Sure enough, just as Liu Xing thought, Zhang Jingxu did know about the existence of the Dreamland.
"Dreamland, what is that place?" Panda Pig asked.
Zhang Jingxu smiled again, and continued: "To put it simply, the Dreamland is a place that is somewhat similar to the real world, but is completely different in some details. Because some lucky or unlucky people can enter the Dreamland through dreaming, that's why the Dreamland is called the Dreamland. So you can understand the Dreamland as a parallel space."
"In the dreamland, besides human beings, there are also a large number of mythical creatures. The reason why they are called mythical creatures is because they occasionally leave the dreamland and appear in the real world through some special means. After they are witnessed by us humans, some of them become mythical beasts, auspicious beasts, or magical beasts, monsters in mythological stories. Therefore, we collectively call them mythical creatures."
"The special means I'm talking about here is one of the different-dimensional gates that connect the real world and the dreamland. These different-dimensional gates may appear anywhere in the real world, and the specific image may also change into any kind of gate. For example, the bronze gate under our feet is a different-dimensional gate."
"And the reason why I know this is because a friend of my master, when he was traveling in China with other Taoists, found a gate of another dimension somewhere. The gate of another dimension looked like a dilapidated wooden board, blocking the entrance of a cave. At that time, that friend of my master entered the gate of another dimension with his partner, and then entered the dreamland."
"Their group appeared in a place called Forgotten Hills in the dreamland. There was nothing there, no flowers, plants, trees, or any living things. My master's friends and the group found that something was wrong, so they went back the same way. After returning to the real world, they began to search for information about the dreamland."
"After confirming the existence of the dreamland and some basic information, the Chinese Taoist sects at that time unanimously decided to go to the dreamland to establish a base, because there are many things in the dreamland that do not exist in the real world, and you should also know that what we Taoists are most passionate about is cultivating magic weapons and refining elixirs. Among them are the deep divers believed by the Deep Sea Gospel Church."
"Therefore, Huaxia Daomen organized a large number of people to enter the gate of the different dimension, came to the Forgotten Hills of the Dreamland to establish a base, and then continuously sent manpower and material resources to maintain the development of the base. After all, the mythical creatures in the surrounding area discovered the strangeness of the Forgotten Hills, and the first reaction was to attack the Forgotten Hills."
"After paying a certain price, our Huaxia Dao Sect finally successfully established a base, and was recognized by the surrounding mythical creatures. My master participated in the entire process of establishing this base, and obtained many tokens called Guiding Orders."
Having said that, Zhang Jingxu took out a token that looked like a tile from his pocket.
"This guiding order can only be used in the dreamland, and the material for making this guiding order is a magical stone called the mother-child stone. However, the guiding order is made of the child stone in the mother-child stone. As long as enough mana is injected, the guiding order will automatically lead the person holding the guiding order to fly towards the supporting stone at a very fast speed, and the supporting stone is naturally the mother stone in the mother-child stone."
"So as long as there are no accidents, I can activate the guiding order the moment I enter the bronze gate, and go directly to the Huaxia Taoist base in the Forgotten Hills. At that time, I can seek the help of the Huaxia Taoist. If this trip is successful, we can leave Fisherman's Village safe and sound. After all, the people in the Huaxia Taoist base are all top experts in the world, and one of them is my uncle." Zhang Jingxu said proudly.
After listening to Zhang Jingxu's words, Liu Xing couldn't help raising his brows. He didn't expect that the Huaxia Taoist sect was so powerful that they even established a base in the Dreamland. You must know that there are many powerful mythical creatures in the Dreamland.
Moreover, Zhang Jingxu's luck is really good. He was able to join such a powerful organization as Huaxia Daomen. Liu Xing felt that Zhang Jingxu should also have a world mission.
But having said that, Liu Xing did not expect that under the background of the Cthulhu myth, the material of the elixir would be the hearts of nine immortal mythical creatures.
Of course, Liu Xing thinks this is quite reasonable. After all, there is an old Chinese saying that is good - eat what you eat, and if you want to live forever, you naturally have to eat those mythical creatures that live forever. There is also an old saying in China, that is, nine is the ultimate number.
In ancient China, nine is the extreme number of yang numbers, that is, the largest number among singular numbers, so in the eyes of ancient Chinese people, nine is the end of everything and a new beginning, so nine is endowed with a brand new concept.
As for the nine kinds of immortal mythical creatures, Liu Xing thinks carefully and can really gather them together, or there are still many, because most of the mythical creatures have the characteristics of immortality, such as deep divers, Yithians, ancients, etc. Therefore, it is really possible to make elixir of life.
Closer to home, after listening to Zhang Jingxu's words, Liu Xing felt that Zhang Jingxu's idea was still feasible. As long as the back of the bronze gate is not the lair of moon beasts, or some extreme environment where humans cannot survive, then Zhang Jingxu really has the opportunity to go to the base of Huaxia Taoism in the dreamland. At that time, Zhang Jingxu only needs to invite a Taoist priest to come out of the mountain, and Matsui Ichiro will not be able to cause any trouble.
But at this moment, Lu Tianya spoke to dissuade him: "Zhang Jingxu, it's too risky for you to do this. If there is a moon beast or other mythical creatures with malicious intentions standing behind this bronze gate, then you will be dead. And even if you can use the guidance order to go to the base of Huaxia Daomen at a very fast speed, if someone or some mythical creature blocks you on the way, then you will be very dangerous."
Just as Zhang Jingxu was about to speak, Lu Tianya looked at Zhang Jingxu seriously, and said affectionately, "I don't want you to have something to do."
Liu Xing had a black hair, he didn't expect that this would be enough to stuff a mouthful of dog food, this game of Cthulhu's running team is unplayable.
Since ancient times, heroes have been saddened by beauty.
Lu Tianya's persuasion judgment was automatically a big success, Zhang Jingxu could only nod his head, and said, "Well, since Lu Tianya and you have said so, then I still won't take the risk."
Liu Xing sighed, and this was actually expected, because Liu Xing knew that KP Green Light definitely didn't want Zhang Jingxu to go to the dreamland to rescue soldiers. After all, as long as Zhang Jingxu did this, then whether the players passed this module, Zhang Jingxu only needed to make another judgment on whether they could successfully reach the Huaxia Daomen's base in the dreamland. . .
Therefore, Liu Xing believed that the reason why Lu Tianya said this was that he was instigated by kp green light.
"Hey, hey, can you players think brighter, and don't think that I, a kp who is upright and aboveboard, think so dirty. I won't take any actions at will except for the plot kills clearly marked in the module, so the reason why NPC Lu Tianya said this is entirely NPC Lu Tianya's own thoughts, and has nothing to do with me." KP Green Light said a little depressed.
But the words of kp green light made Zhang Jingxu even happier, because Lu Tianya cared so much about him.
At this moment, KP Green Light continued: "Since you dare to question the character of this KP, then this KP must give you a warning, because players other than Zhang Jingxu don't know the existence of Dreamland, so after learning the information about Dreamland, player Liu Xing will lose 1 point of san value and gain 1 point of Cthulhu Mythos knowledge, while player Miyagu Wutong and player Panda Pig will lose 2 points of San value and gain 2 points of Cthulhu Mythology knowledge."
Liu Xing knew that KP Green Light was joking, because Liu Xing was ready to lower the san value when Zhang Jingxu told the information about the dreamland, after all, it reached the standard of the dictation test.
However, Liu Xing was a little surprised that he didn't trigger the san value check when he was performing the wall penetration technique, or he didn't trigger the san value check of the panda pig.
After all, I didn't trigger the San value test, which can be explained by the reason that I am the leader of the secret church, and Miyako Wutong can be explained by the fact that I have a second-class illness. As for the panda pig, Liu Xing really didn't think of any reason.
Therefore, Liu Xing felt that there might be some story behind this panda pig.
Because Zhang Jingxu's plan was blocked by Lu Tianya, Liu Xing and others could only ignore the existence of the dreamland, and bring the topic back to Liu Xing.
"Liu Xing, I think since you have already gone down once, after Zhang Jingxu recovers his mana, you should go down and continue exploring. After all, you are already familiar with it." Panda Pig said with a smile.
Liu Xing frowned, took out his phone and said, "Look, now my phone's battery is only about 20 percent. You all know how fast a smartphone drains. Even if I don't use my phone now, my phone's battery will be at most 10 percent by this time tomorrow. If I go down, it won't take a few minutes for my phone to run out of power. By then, I will be blind in the dark underground ruins, so if you want me to go down again, you have to give me your phone. Who of you wants to?"
As soon as Liu Xing said this, Panda Zhu and others did not speak. . .
After all, in this modern society, the importance of mobile phones is self-evident, because mobile phones involve a lot of important private information, so even in the real world, few people would be willing to lend their mobile phones to others, let alone in the Cthulhu running game.
Take Liu Xing as an example, if someone really lent Liu Xing his mobile phone, Liu Xing would have the opportunity to know that person's home address, and then he could take his followers to do "home visits".
PS: I recommend "Operation Red Sea", it's really good to watch, but it's a bit bloody.
