"I used to be one of the believers," Lucent said darkly.
"In the beginning, joining that faith was a very, very wonderful experience...
"Men and women huddled in a small dance hall, filled with smoke and soft music. We drank and chatted, and even talked about some taboo topics, and talked about our dissatisfaction with the court and Keen... Then, in a tacit silence , the backbone of the church will pour everyone a glass of absinthe."
"After drinking that wine..." A sweet aftertaste appeared on Luthert's face, "Your dreams will come true!
"We..." He stood up suddenly, his eyes were ignited, "We are flying above the city! Even the Kingdom of God Building is under us.
"The lights of the city stretch for thousands of miles, covering the entire coast like shining moss, and then stretching inland... Modern diffuse, like a shining wave!
"Modern gods are by our side, holding hands to celebrate with us! Human beings have finally mastered the power to conquer this world, this is the dream of this era!——We have finally stepped out of the darkness, and we can openly worship desire, desire !
"Then, with the help of this bright modern life, desire gives us an overabundance of feedback...!
"We know we are still in that ballroom, but our spirit seems to be inflated and lightened countless times. We reveled and expressed our love there..."
"We have gained something as wonderful as money and status. We have no fear, and we have unlocked the constraints of morality..."
"At that moment you will know: the modern age is a dream exclusively for human beings!"
Lucent took a few breaths, calmed down his increasingly excited tone, and continued in a slightly tired voice: "That is the stage of entering the teaching... Believe me, few people can refuse such an experience.
"After you get past that stage, you can't go back ... because you just want more, bigger dreams."
"Afterwards, the backbones will ask us to contribute to our faith. Donate money, contacts, time, and even life..." Lucent sat back by the fire, "Then, some of the 'lucky ones' will be promoted to dream believers and get a A great honor..."
"Step into R'lyeh, sleep forever in a beautiful dream, and become one with the dreamer?" Sean asked.
Lucent stared at the fire and nodded, the facial features on his face seemed to be melting due to the accumulated exhaustion: "I refuse to dream now. So I refuse to sleep."
"I was so stupid at the beginning, I thought it was a kind of great luck...
"All devout believers can finally sleep in the corridor of eternal sleep, and get a drop of 'original solution' before falling asleep."
"Stock solution?"
"Yes, that seems to be something secreted by the dreamer...it was also added to the absinthe we drank back then.
"After obtaining that stock solution, we can stay in the dream forever."
Sean suddenly understood—he was also sleeping in a coffin, he was trapped in a gray and hopeless dream, and those believers were endless sweet dreams.
"Since it's a beautiful dream," Sean asked, "then why did you wake up?"
"You don't understand..." Lucent held his head in his hands, "At the end of the dream, I discovered the nature of desire...God, I wish I never knew!"
"You don't know what kind of dreams I've had!" His eyes flickered like will-o'-the-wisps, "At first, I dreamed that I was in a city full of beauties, and they all loved me madly. In addition to enjoying food and wine , I've been busy...
"After this dream got bored, I started to start a business in my dream, and every time, without accident, I became the most successful and richest person in the world.
"Then I set out to explore and became a famous explorer, bringing back rare treasures from dangerous ancient places..."
"I rotated different dreams, over and over again, over and over again."
Lucent blinked and sighed: "Actually, at that time, I felt a little bit of fear—every time I rotated a dream, the ecstasy and fun that dream gave me would decrease...
"Then, I gradually discovered the laws of the human heart. The scary thing is that I discovered it under that circumstance..." He looked at Sean with a wry smile, "I discovered that the human heart is a bottomless pit: we will soon no longer be satisfied What we have already obtained. What can satisfy us is always what we have not obtained for a while...
"The scary thing is that there is nothing in the dream that I can't get. Even if I create all kinds of stories, it's no use temporarily erasing my memory. The feeling of emptiness is getting stronger and stronger."
He sighed, looking a little pale: "If sweet dreams are honey, because I ate too much, I couldn't taste the sweetness in the end.
"It took me an indefinite amount of time to realize that the dream was actually a sugar-coated nightmare.
"Then, I figured out a way to wake myself up."
"A lot of people wake up eventually?"
"Isn't that the one who was canned just now? - trust me, there are a lot of people who are going to want to wake up...
"Lucky people will find a way to wake up, and unlucky people will fall into nightmares. Anyway, what the soul surge needs is the intense dream emotions, and that one doesn't care what emotions it is!"
It seems that dreamers do not have unlimited energy... Sean thought: When they become numb to the satisfaction of their desires, it is time to find a way to escape from the dream.
Those who escape successfully will be canned by the night watchman and continue to contribute soul surges. As a believer, Kluvitan really squeezed his followers to the limit...
Lucent hugged his head again. Just the thought of being canned made him paralyzed with fear: "Please, let's get out of here, run away—God!"
Seeming to be annoyed by Lucent's reading, Moonlight finally reprimanded: "Leave? How do you leave now? Where do you go? How did you leave Lalaiye without knowing, so just run around outside?
"Don't you remember how your companions died when they went out? The only threat we have to deal with here is the occasional night watchman. How about going out?—Where is it safer than hiding in the corridor now?!"
A series of questions made Lucent shut up.
"Where's Arthur?" Sean asked. According to Moonlight and the others, Arthur also participated in the dilution of the curse. Judging by the size of his soul, he must have woken up first, but Sean has not seen him so far.
"He went to investigate nearby, looking for a way to leave. Only he has such strength." Moonlight said, "He seems to be fascinated by this place."
Fascinated, yes, is there any explorer who is not curious about R'lyeh?
The difference is that this curiosity will not kill Arthur. He is one of the candidates for the next Joker.
Sean felt relieved. Everything would be easier with Arthur Merlin around.
"When does he come back?"
"He seems to have discovered something and is planning to return. We'll hear from him later..."
A roar resounded through the entire corridor of eternal sleep from far to near. At this moment, they seemed to be living in the intestines of some giant beast, and a terrifying bowel sound just broke out.
Lucent suddenly straightened his head by the fire, his face turned pale. Sean and the others stood up and looked in the direction of the loud noise ~www.mtlnovel.com~ They heard the dreamers at the far end shouting in their dreams again.
"What are you shouting for?" Ivan turned his head and asked Moonlight.
Moonlight squinted and listened for a while. Another shock.
"They're singing a...name? It sounds like—Isothoa?"
Hearing this name, Lucent slowly turned his dull eyes to the moonlight.
"Who's that?" Moonlight asked, turning to the former disciple.
"Son..."
"What?"
"Heir, His heir..."
Lucent suddenly raised his head, his eyes were full of ghostly fire: "It turns out that He really hates you! — It's a big mistake to be with you!"
After speaking, he turned his head and ran into the darkness alone.
