第759章 59.【None】
Hearing this, Renee raised her head in astonishment, looking at Hela, who maintained a smile in front of her. Hela’s expression remained inscrutable, revealing an unpredictable ambiguity.
“The power within the barrier is insufficient to easily topple Dream. The only way to make Him reveal a flaw is for Fisher to use the properties within himself as a bargaining chip to force Dream into taking risks. As long as he does so, he will undoubtedly fall into danger.”
What puzzled her was that, despite appearing like a human, Hela’s face acted as an impenetrable wall that made it impossible to see through. If everyone else’s expressions were mirrors reflecting their souls, Hela’s visage was utterly opaque.
But Renee had to consider the truth of her words because she knew Fisher was indeed the kind of person who would do such a thing.
She momentarily lost focus and then quickly turned her attention back to Hela.
“What do you really want, Ocean?”
Hela’s smile took on an interest, “Oh?”
“If sending authority into the barrier was to fix it, then why did you shatter the barrier in the first place? If you are destined to destroy this world and seize the properties within Fisher, then what significance does all of this have? Is it merely a game for your entertainment?”
Hela’s gaze dropped slightly, and then she slowly extended her hand in front of Renee, blocking her view to further scrutinize her face.
In the shadowy darkness, Hela’s face seemed to merge with the darkness, revealing a pair of bright blue-golden eyes amidst the darkness through her outstretched fingers.
Then, Renee heard Hela say,
“Even the most fantastical soul and even the most meaningless cosmos follow the most basic logic, thereby attracting countless civilizations and deities to explore its mysteries.”
“And what about you?”
Hela slighted a smile but did not answer the question; she simply withdrew her palm and said to Renee, “This incarnation won’t hold much longer. I will let you go now to assist Fisher and stop him if you don’t want Dream to succeed.”
“Buzz buzz buzz.”
As Hela’s words fell, the surrounding darkness gradually dispersed, making the moonlight on Renee brighter.
Outside, the Spirit Realm was thick with crimson. Renee took a deep breath and stood up to look outside.
“Crack crack crack!”
What came into view was a gigantic false god with Asuka’s benevolent face, but appearing particularly fierce—Dream.
Time slowly rewound a bit. At this moment, Fisher, pinched by Dream, squinted while observing Dream’s body.
He was not curious about Dream but was searching for Jasmine’s position within Him.
At this moment, Dream’s true form had not fully entered the barrier. Although the false god’s body in front of him transmitted power from its true form, the crucial aspect lay in Jasmine serving as the basis for the false god.
The pollution within the barrier came from Jasmine’s dreams, which could be seen since the false god still maintained Asuka’s likeness.
He raised an eyebrow, glancing at the gods below who were being suppressed by Dream, while the Dream before him had already begun fighting against the dark incarnation of the Ocean.
“Boom!”
The boundless darkness twisted when the false god’s incarnation collided with it, then burst into clusters of flowers like roses; this was the manifestation of the pollution eroding Dream into reality.
Yet the Ocean’s power was not to be underestimated either. He noticed that its entire body began to be invaded by that darkness, with even the Bodhisattva’s head beginning to sprout magical circuits.
That was the mark of a soul.
Gods obviously had souls, but the false god merely bore Dream’s consciousness, lacking Dream’s soul. The only being within the false god that possessed a soul was Jasmine.
Jasmine’s body was within the false god’s head!
At the moment of the collision with the Ocean, Fisher inadvertently discerned Jasmine’s exact location.
But after all, Dream was Dream, possessing the strength of His true form at this moment, easily suppressing the Ocean’s incarnation, tearing its dark exterior into shreds, making it falter like a candle in the wind.
“Crack crack crack!”
“Dream!”
At that next moment, a bright moonlight abruptly burst out from the weak Ocean incarnation’s boundless darkness.
Dream, who was still entangled with the Ocean’s incarnation, wore a clearly stunned expression. Then, a massive, moon-like sphere suddenly filled His sight.
The power of infinite authority surged to its peak, and that illusory moonlight seemed to become remarkably heavy under the immense accumulation, covering Dream’s face like a force that could destroy the world, causing His false god body to crack even more, while simultaneously, the power suppressing the gods below became slightly weaker, intensifying their struggles.
A trace of anger appeared on Dream’s face. His peripheral vision turned to Fisher, saying to him:
“Our deal did not include dealing with infinite authority. What does your deep relationship with her mean?”
Fisher glanced up at the moonlit figure standing alongside the Ocean incarnation in mid-air, feeling as if he saw Renee’s gaze from that shimmering moonlight—a look of questioning that quickly made him withdraw his gaze.
After a moment of silence, he spoke,
“I separated from Renee as I emerged from the dream; she must have been told something by the Ocean.”
“Hmph, no matter. Even with her added, I can still handle it.”
Dream ceased to speak, but from within the barrier, a terrifying ripple of authority emanated from Dream’s true form. Layer upon layer of authoritative power began to transfer from His body into the barrier, revealing that the number of authorities was actually over ten.
Dream had so much authority.
No wonder, even with all the gods within the barrier united, they were not His match.
But looking at the authority’s light that suddenly shone before the Ultimate, a smile appeared on Fisher’s face.
Since there was so much power, it should be sufficient.
His mind returned to the scene he experienced just before entering the dream when he touched the barrier.
He saw a gigantic, boundless golden vortex, spanning an unknown corner of the universe, with layer upon layer of bubbles converging into tentacles filled with suckers, from which the voice of Azanros descended like a great clock:
“Repairing the barrier requires divine authority.”
“Can Hamon Hamon’s authority be used, as it has already been sent into the barrier?”
“Not enough.”
“Then, add the rest.”
“It barely requires the authority of all the gods within your barrier, including infinite authority. But remember: you must eliminate all other external deities’ powers within the barrier. Otherwise, someday in the future, the barrier may be shattered again.”
“What happens after the authority is taken away from the gods?”
“Gods who lose all their authority will die.”
“I understand.”
“When all is ready, you can once again use the properties within you to connect with My blessing and contact Me. I will bestow power, motivating the barrier to absorb the authority’s power to complete the repair.”
“…”
From that time on, Fisher knew the method to repair the barrier, and it was precisely because of such conditions that he did not state this before.
He did not doubt the gods’ spirit of sacrifice, but he cared for Renee.
Repairing the barrier required Renee’s life. If possible, he even hoped to replace her with the properties and life within him. However, the response from Azanros remained uncertain.
He did not understand what the precious property within Fisher represented, just as it was the ultimate secret unheard of throughout the universe, being the Ocean’s treasure.
But Azanros knew that due to its special connection with the Ocean, it could very well play a counterproductive role.
So Fisher could only focus on other existences that might rival a True God, hoping to find a substitute.
Pollution in the Spirit Realm. The Ocean’s incarnation that rivaled True Gods.
But seemingly, they possessed no authority but were manifestations of a higher tier outside the barrier.
Only Dream, who was currently striving to enter the barrier, could do so.
Fisher looked at Dream in the distance, who was entering the barrier with authority, forcibly suppressing his excitement, then turned to the below, seeing Xu and Gouwen, as well as Emhart standing on his shoulder. Finally, he felt relieved enough to return his gaze to Dream, silently reaching out to grasp the Fluid Sword in his palm.
This was a gamble, and he knew better than anyone.
It seemed that the Ocean was already deeply trapped in a storm, simultaneously opposing the Ocean’s incarnation, the gods, and Renee. Meanwhile, the power of his body, filled with authority, was stuck in the barrier, only requiring Fisher to call upon Azanros to repair the barrier and extract the power of his body to determine the outcome.
Next, as long as all of the Ocean’s incarnations were eliminated before the barrier was repaired, the Apocalypse Prophecy could be easily resolved.
One could say this was Fisher’s closest moment to everything ending, but it was also the most perilous.
Also, due to the time needed to repair the barrier, Dream would not perish instantly, and He still held two crucial cards against Fisher.
The Fisher in His palm and Jasmine’s life in His mind.
Moreover, there was a key issue; currently, only three of the Ocean’s four incarnations had revealed themselves. In reality, one was present, while Hela and the deep darkness before him were two, but the last one had never shown itself.
Thus, even if the barrier was repaired, one day the Ocean would inevitably repeat the same strategy, shattering the barrier from within. Would they then have to face the Apocalypse Prophecy again?
But at this point, it had come to a point where he had to go all in.
Fisher took a deep breath, glancing in Renee’s direction, who seemed to sense something as she transformed into a human form from the moonlight and hurried toward him with a worried face.
At this moment, it was precisely when Fisher called upon Azanros.
“Azanros!”
“Buzz buzz buzz!”
As Fisher organized everything in his mind, preparing for all, his sudden call interrupted Dream, Renee’s true form, and the Ocean’s incarnation entangled in the Spirit Realm.
With a peculiar wave, the entire exterior of the Spirit Realm—the barrier enveloping the world—began to brighten.
The barrier, which had been hiding its form all along, finally revealed its hidden state under Fisher’s call, displaying the brightest light from the world’s inception.
It was a fortress forged from layer upon layer of golden swirling bubbles, seemingly isolating all communication in the world, now shining resplendently within the barrier and equally so outside it.
The gods of Ramastia raised their heads in shock, looking at the expanse of golden light, as if witnessing the appearance of the world at birth, everything they had hoped for now riddled with holes.
Outside the silent universe, between galaxies, a light circle brighter than a star suddenly materialized within the void, attracting all forms of existence within light-years, within the darkness, within stars, and beyond civilizations.
In the star systems concealed by the barrier for thousands of years, powerful other consciousnesses quickly noticed the earth-shattering changes happening here and were cautiously peering toward this direction, with some bolder ones directly approaching.
“Buzz buzz buzz.”
The hidden ideal land proclaimed to the outside world: “I am here.”
But regarding the chaotic situation within the barrier, the most significant change was felt by Dream in the center of the battlefield.
His color slightly shifted as he hurriedly gazed toward the source of the terrifying suction arising from the flickering golden-light barrier breach.
He couldn’t stop himself from struggling; even his previously benevolent features began to turn fierce. He glared at Fisher, questioning him:
“Barrier, my authority… What have you done?!”
He exerted all his effort to manipulate his true form to break free from the barrier’s suction, resisting becoming the nourishment for repairing the barrier. The entire Ultimate Zone thus experienced intense fluctuations, and both sides required time to determine an outcome. The end of this brief period would be the moment to announce the results of Fisher’s gamble.
Then, let the game begin, before the open cards.
Fisher gritted his teeth, activating the Fluid Sword in his hand to its full extent, causing blades like branches to erupt in all directions, directly slicing through the false god’s arm.
He managed to break free at once, and mid-air, Renee, who was rushing toward him, seized the opportunity to take him away, soaring into the sky.
However, Dream was still Dream, and He quickly realized everything happening inside the barrier, leading to a swift decision.
With a gesture of His five fingers, the true form trapped in the Ultimate began to visibly wither, replaced by the crimson mist around the false god growing denser.
He intended to directly extract His authority from His body and then place it into the false god. This way, he could escape the barrier’s extraction of authority.
This move left Fisher dumbfounded, as the most critical part was starting, but Dream’s face, just like Asuka’s, began to melt, transitioning toward Dream’s true form.
This was not merely the process of transforming from a “false god” to a “true god.” If Dream moved the power of authority into this body, disregarding the prior efforts, the key point was Jasmine.
The Jasmine maintaining the false god form within his mind would probably be directly devoured by Him!
The traitor Ouyun next to the Ultimate soon reacted, turning His head away from stubbornly opening a path for Dream to instead lift a massive hammer capable of striking stars and charge toward Fisher, directly joining the fray.
“Renee, let me go back. We just need to rescue Jasmine hidden in Dream’s mind, and His false god form won’t be able to be maintained! We can’t give Him any more time!”
“He has already lost control over Ramastia. With their participation, we can collectively defeat Him before He merges His authority.”
Fisher remained silent for a moment, then turned to Renee and stated firmly,
“Jasmine is still inside. I must save her. Moreover, if we focus all our thoughts on directly defeating Dream, what will happen to the Ocean? We must make the three gods return to help deal with the Ocean’s incarnation, as well as Ouyun.”
Renee met his gaze, took a breath, and replied,
“I cannot, nor do I want to let you take risks. What the Ocean said is true. He has long known you would take risks for us, which is why He gave up opposing me and let me out to stop you.”
Renee refused to let go, while below, the gods of Ramastia—Anebatos, Dalasgon—finally burst forth, unleashing all their power directed at Ouyun and the storm-centered Dream.
Just as Fisher was about to move, he heard Renee mention Hela, and he couldn’t help but smile wryly, saying softly,
“Everything she said has always been a lie. She was simply cornered by Dream and needed us to help balance Him. To take it a step further, after Dream is defeated, the only thing left for us to handle is her. Once all her incarnations disappear and the barrier is repaired, everything will end, and you will all survive. Just thinking of that day makes me believe it’s worth taking this gamble.”
This sounded unusual because Fisher, while stating Hela was lying, seemed to hesitate remarkably.
Yet he surmised another meaning from Renee’s words.
Did Hela also not want him to go, which was why she let Renee out?
If something were to happen to him, would the properties within him be affected?
“No, if not, we should try to save Jasmine from His mind together.”
Renee continued to reject Fisher’s risky decision, and hearing this, he effortlessly redirected the conversation.
“Fine, let’s do it together.” Fisher smiled helplessly, then his expression became serious as he looked at the increasingly fierce Dream below, saying to Renee, “Jasmine is in His head. Let’s see if we can break open His mind and directly bring Jasmine out.”
“Okay.”
Renee nodded, activating both her true form and incarnation simultaneously while also relaying the message to the gods below. Ramastia looked toward Ouyun coming from afar, then turned back to Dalasgon and Anebatos, saying,
“Anebatos and I will deal with the Ocean’s incarnation and Ouyun. Dalasgon, you’re still injured. Go assist Fisher and Renee with Dream.”
“Buzz buzz buzz.”
Anebatos understood the gravity of the situation. He transformed into a ray of golden light, seemingly communicating with all the spaces within the barrier as he rushed toward Ouyun.
Dalasgon turned and cast a glance at the barrier, saying to Ramastia,
“There are other deities coming from outside the barrier.”
“They have noticed us.”
“Then hurry up.”
Suddenly, outside the barrier, distorted shadows emerged from the void of the universe, bright stars hindered by clawing hands.
Covered by shadows, a terrifying being full of eye pupils looked curiously towards the wobbling barrier suspended in the universe.
Not only this unknown deity, but behind Him, in the quiet cosmos, many gazes of observation also turned simultaneously, each divine gaze appearing particularly fearsome.
The unknown is both candy and poison for the deities.
They instinctively realized that within this powerful golden barrier may lie precious things that could change everything, thus driving the powerful beings of the universe to become restless.
And there would always be a god willing to be the first to attempt to destroy the barrier and enter.
“Boom!!”
In the next second, the entire barrier began to tremble. Ramastia looked outside the barrier and saw several powerful deities appearing beyond the barrier, starting to make attempts to open it.
The combined force of the gods made the still unfilled barrier even more fragile, causing Ramastia’s heart to feel like it was on fire with anxiety.
“Damn it!”
But standing in front of Him was Ouyun, who had become a traitor!
“Ao!!”
Ouyun roared and raised a massive star hammer to smash towards the space ahead. In a flash, the countless faces on Ramastia’s body expanded in an instant, covering the shockwave formed by Ouyun’s powerful force like a tide and also restricting the oceanic embodiment, which was on the verge of shattering, from leaving.
At this moment, Fisher was also intently looking down at Dream, who was in pain and holding his head. He seemed to realize that the purpose of Fisher and the others was Jasmine inside his head. As long as Jasmine was extracted, his pseudo-divine body could no longer exist. Therefore, he wrapped his head up tightly, refusing to loosen his defense no matter how much Renee and Dalasgon attacked.
“Get away!!”
Feeling Renee’s approaching power, Dream’s entire body trembled as he could no longer hold back and raised his head to roar.
Dream’s pupils constricted, and the face bearing Asuka’s likeness began to melt like wax, with a pair of crimson eyes starting to split for no reason. After all, the barrier had not yet stripped away all the properties within him. His power was still exceptionally strong. At this moment, facing the attacks from both sides, he was somehow unable to break through their defenses.
“Renee, if this continues…”
“No! You stay by my side! We’re almost there…”
Renee insisted on not letting Fisher leave, but as the pseudo-god’s body twisted bit by bit, pulling away from Asuka’s form, Fisher knew that if it went on like this, Jasmine would be in trouble.
He had to take action.
“Fisher!”
Just when Renee’s embodiment was still trying to open a gap, Fisher silently drew the Fluid Sword, releasing Renee’s hand, and in her slightly astonished gaze, rushed straight towards Dream’s head below.
“Dream, don’t you want the properties inside me? Come on!”
Dream’s defense action paused slightly as he looked up at Fisher holding the Fluid Sword, momentarily stunned, then laughed and said,
“Alright. I was planning to wait a bit longer before activating this backup. Since you’re so anxious, it’s fine to take action now.”
Hearing this, Fisher’s expression changed. He looked down at his own body and realized that beneath his clothing, there were twisted crimson lines like worms hidden under his skin, already corroding towards his heart.
“Hiss!”
At the same time, the Supplement Handbook for Sub-Humans on his chest became as hot as the sun, causing Fisher to gasp in pain.
Just now, he had been testing to see if he had the ability to stop Dream from taking the properties!
So he had agreed to his own deal to buy time.
Now it seemed that he had realized Fisher knew nothing about the properties within himself; otherwise, he wouldn’t have tested the properties for so long without any reaction from Fisher.
Dream’s movements didn’t slow down at all. He finally temporarily abandoned his defense, fully focusing on the approaching Fisher while driving the hidden red tendrils within Fisher’s body to wrap around the power of the soul and coil towards the properties.
As Hela had predicted, only the properties within Fisher’s body could make Dream take risks.
At this moment, deities were surrounding the cosmos outside. The ocean and the gods of creation inside the barrier began to battle wildly. He was also besieged and trapped in a crisis; holding on for too long might provide a glimmer of hope.
But as long as he seized the precious properties inside Fisher, he had a hunch that he could absolutely transcend everything and instantly escape the current predicament.
So, was it to choose to consolidate his chips and seek victory steadily while waiting for that faint glimmer of hope; or to throw caution to the wind at this moment and seize the properties to turn the tide?
Alright, since everyone is a gambler, let’s all go all in and wait for the cards to be revealed!
Looking at Fisher, Dream thought this.
As the properties within Fisher were pried open, cracks resembling shattered ceramics began to appear on Fisher’s body, and from those cracks, streams of extremely bright light seeped out, seemingly signifying the existence of something precious.
He saw it.
That bright property.
“Ka ka ka ka!”
“Fisher?!”
In the shocked call of Renee from behind, Fisher calmly took a deep breath and raised the Fluid Sword again, aiming at Dream’s head while shouting to Renee,
“Renee, give me some time, hold him off!!”
Renee gritted her teeth, but at this point, she could only comply.
She took a deep breath, and her original body exploded with moonlight, binding Dream’s grinning body tightly. At the same time, her manifestation wrapped in moonlight shot straight towards Dream’s face.
Dream laughed loudly and opened his mouth wide, and his tongue suddenly exploded into countless crimson mist, piercing directly towards Fisher.
“Swish!”
Fisher pushed away Renee, who was pursuing him, and held the Fluid Sword to meet Dream’s enormous face.
But it was not reckless; his peripheral vision had already seen the lurking figure.
“Gouwen!!”
Dream paused slightly, while behind Him, Xu, who had been supported by Gouwen, trembled and raised his hand. The light of the law behind him became exceptionally bright.
“Return my daughter to me!”
“Pfft!”
The crimson mist rushing towards Fisher was directly intercepted by Xu’s medium. Although Xu’s rank could only momentarily create a vacuum for a second, after that second passed, as Dream suddenly exerted force, Xu also spat out a mouthful of blood and fell into Gouwen’s arms.
But that one second was already enough, because Fisher had killed himself right before Dream’s head wielding the Fluid Sword.
He suddenly raised the Fluid Sword in his hand, aiming to cut into Dream’s head.
“Boom!!”
The blade of the Fluid Sword expanded like a meat grinder, and all of Fisher’s rank’s power directly opened the pseudo-god’s forehead, spraying out mist like blood.
And in that thick mist, the dragged, head-down figure of Jasmine could be faintly seen.
Fisher gritted his teeth, transforming the Fluid Sword blade into a rope and hooking Jasmine’s body, but he didn’t notice that his chest had already been corroded by Dream’s crimson power, shattered like an eggshell.
Yet in Dream’s eyes, there was only the deadly alluring light emanating from Fisher’s body.
“I see it. That. I see the properties!! Give it to me!! Hand it over!!”
Just as Fisher hooked Jasmine’s body, dragging it out and making the entire nature of the pseudo-god become precarious, countless crimson mists had already crossed the gap in Fisher’s shattered chest, peering at the Supplement Handbook for Sub-Humans radiating golden light within it, catching sight of an existence shining with light brighter than the stars.
As soon as he caught a glimpse of that light, Dream felt an excitement rising from deep within, something he had never felt before.
As long as he could obtain those properties.
As long as he could obtain those properties.
The countless crimson mists of Dream suddenly surged past the Fluid Sword blade that was dragging Jasmine, madly enveloping his soul and rushing into Fisher’s body, prying open his shattered chest, making the pathway formed by his broken body wide enough to release those precious properties.
“.Renee, help again.”
Fisher originally wanted to call out to Renee because, at this moment, Jasmine had been rescued. As long as Renee helped keep an eye on the properties he was leaking, preventing Dream from getting them and causing variance, everything would be settled.
But it was only then that he discovered he couldn’t even speak a complete sentence.
It’s. it’s bad.
Everything before Fisher began to turn dark, as if his consciousness was about to fly away.
He could only pray that his properties were exposed and couldn’t help the currently desperate Dream.
Although Jasmine had left his body, Dream’s body as a pseudo-god in front of him was also starting to crumble, but he was still crazily pulling at the properties within himself.
Ah.
Jasmine had been saved, Renee was still unharmed, and Dream’s pseudo-god body could not be maintained. They only needed to wait for the barrier to absorb his authority and then repair it.
Now, with three gods inside the barrier plus Renee, it should be enough to clear the two embodiments of Ouyun and the ocean.
Wait, there’s still one more embodiment of the ocean. That embodiment is
Where is it?
I can’t find it, the rest is
Fisher squinted his eyes, seeing the darkness growing thicker around him. He could only feel an extreme pain coming from his chest, but he still held on tightly to the unconscious Jasmine, then with the last of his strength, threw Jasmine towards Xu and Gouwen.
The entire world seemed to fall silent, with only his shattered chest and the increasingly bright properties within, seemingly the only light in this world, becoming more and more obvious.
“Buzz buzz buzz”
Dream’s frenzied consciousness, like a similarly fierce gambler, exhausted everything, even as his only vessel of consciousness, his pseudo-god body, began to dissipate. But before that, he still gambled everything, placing all hope on the properties that were about to blossom from Fisher’s body.
He had a hunch that as long as those properties appeared, everything would change.
He had a hunch.
“Buzz buzz buzz”
With Fisher’s chest crumbling, the light radiating from within instantaneously reached the entire Spirit Realm, making it extraordinarily bright as if everywhere was basking in sunlight.
Thus, it attracted the gaze of all presences present, not just the nearby Dream, but also the extremely anxious Renee behind, the gods of creation who hurriedly turned around from afar, and the couple Xu and Gouwen.
All beings in reality saw it; the heavens were enveloped in light brighter than countless suns.
Even the curious outer gods outside the barrier, wanting to enter, felt that extremely bright light.
That was
Light.
All conscious existences paused. Only within the shattered embodiment of the ocean did the blonde Hela’s expression gradually change as she saw the light.
Because only she knew that everything corresponding to this extremely bright light, and to the ultimate secrets of the universe, was actually described in the name of those properties.
She looked towards the barrier, as if seeing countless deities gathering outside it, wanting to peek inside, and softly murmured,
“Did you all see the light of [Nothing]? Then be prepared to be completely devoured by it.”
“Buzz buzz buzz!”
All beings believed that was the light bright enough to illuminate all unknowns, but only Hela knew that was the authority of [Nothing]. Once there was no soul to wrap it,
It would devour everything.
“Hahaha, I see it, I…”
Dream’s insane voice echoed from the void but suddenly stopped, because in the next second, that small, unobservable, seemingly non-existent substance bursting with the brightest radiance in the world erupted from Fisher’s body and completely engulfed him.
The properties began to spread outward at a very slow speed as soon as they left Fisher’s body, erasing everything touched as if it had never existed.
Xu and Gouwen, who had just caught Jasmine, saw the enormous light before them. They hadn’t realized what had happened before they witnessed Dream’s enormous and unmatched body instantly vanish without a trace.
A feeling of extreme danger surged in their hearts. The nearby Xu hadn’t reacted yet when Gouwen, covered in cold sweat, picked up Xu, and Xu grasped Jasmine and retreated,
“Run!! The moon is not right!!”
“But…” Renee was slightly taken aback, frightened by the sudden change and dared not move, but she knew that Fisher was still inside. She could only shout, “Fisher!!!”
“Buzz buzz buzz!”
That dazzling light scattered, erasing everything it touched, leaving no trace behind.
Including Fisher, who was beside those properties.
Fisher only felt his consciousness sinking into nothingness, as if he were to completely fall into madness and unconsciousness.
He thought of nothing, there was nothing at all, just like this.
Fisher’s body gradually shattered in the face of that power of no authority, his clothing, his body all fell apart, only his soul, already on the verge of being corroded by Dream’s power, and the Supplement Handbook for Sub-Humans before that soul still existed.
The light of those properties continued to spread, sending out waves that visibly expanded in all directions, and everything touched instantaneously disappeared in place as if it had never existed.
Everything was about to be annihilated under the illumination of that precious property.
At this moment, the barrier was a cage, waiting for that authority to eliminate everything in sight.
Even the voice of Renee’s calls could not spread because all media had already disappeared.
At this moment, only the Supplement Handbook for Sub-Humans before Fisher’s chest, which was also about to disappear, suddenly began to glow. It seemed to move pages by its own accord, pressing tightly against Fisher’s still existing soul.
“Woosh woosh woosh”
The sound of the book turning pages was like an alarm clock, making Fisher’s increasingly heavy consciousness suddenly become a bit more clear.
His groggy head felt as heavy as a thousand pounds, yet he couldn’t help but open his eyes, and what met his gaze was a dark ceiling speckled with faint glow.
I.
Where is this?
But, so sleepy.
Fisher hazily felt that he was sitting on an extremely soft chair, with his arm resting on the armrest beside the table, a cool breeze blowing from above, making his consciousness clearer.
“Give me a chance.”
“How do I give you a chance?”
“I had no choice before, now I want to be a good person.”
Strange voices came to his ears, making Fisher’s consciousness feel like it was soaked in cold water.
He slowly opened his eyes and found that in front of him, a massive screen was projecting the image of two people talking.
“Alright, go tell the judge and see if he lets you be a good person.”
“…”
Fisher rubbed his eyes again to confirm he wasn’t mistaken. Then he straightened his body a bit, looking at his hands with a puzzled expression.
“You’re awake?”
At that moment, a strange yet familiar, warm, casual female voice suddenly came from beside him.
Fisher was slightly taken aback and turned to look.
He saw a woman in a robe with long, disheveled black hair casually sitting beside the soft seat where he was, holding a bucket of popcorn that emitted a sweet caramel scent. She only glanced at the large screen displaying the video and didn’t look at Fisher, while reaching into the popcorn bucket and taking out a large popcorn kernel to put in her mouth.
It was because of this action that Fisher, in a daze, noticed a hideous scar on the arm she used to scoop the popcorn, resembling a crab with its claws open.
“…”
Although it was only the first time meeting, Fisher felt as though he had known her for a very long time and had heard of her stories.
Looking at the murky visage of the woman beside him, enveloped by a cascade of black hair, Fisher didn’t answer her, but instead retorted,
“Where am I?”
The woman beside him chewed on the popcorn in her mouth, smiled slightly, and said,
“Isn’t it obvious? We are in a movie theater.”
“A movie theater?”
“.Yes.”
“…”
“Speaking of which, this should be our first meeting. Let’s introduce ourselves.”
“Ah, I know you, you’re…”
The woman beside him smiled slightly but suddenly turned her head to interrupt his speech.
She revealed a pair of bright eyes hidden beneath the fallen hair that shone with clarity, and as if she could foresee the future, said,
“First of all,
“Don’t call me a Subhuman Girl Enthusiast.”
