Dream

After cutting off the connection between souls, Anping didn't understand where Gu Yuena's trust in him came from, but he was still very happy.

He began to check the changes in the long sword that had received the power of faith after solving Gu Yuena's problem.

In addition to the extra layer of gleaming white light, its strength, sharpness, and soul-destroying properties had been enhanced to a certain extent, though not much.

But if Anping gained more power of faith in the future, this sword would continue to be strengthened. He put it away after confirming that there was no problem.

Since he had nothing special to do, Anping finished his meal and read for a while before lying on the bed and resting. He would still maintain the living conditions of ordinary people, even though meditation could replace sleep, if there were no accidents.

Anping fell asleep soon and began a strange dream journey. Logically speaking, it was impossible for him to dream with his current strength, but the reality was that he had entered a dream, and it was a strange one.

It was the kind of dream where he knew he was dreaming, but he couldn't wake up even if he wanted to, and he couldn't control his actions. It wouldn't be a problem if he were an ordinary person.

But Anping was now a second-level wizard. Entering a dream without control was an abnormal thing, let alone like this.

He felt a moment of fear in his heart because he couldn't control his body. He began to observe his surroundings, trying to see if he could find any clues, after the fear passed.

The dream began in a small town. Judging from the architectural style, it should be a small town on the Douluo Continent. But Anping had never been to such a small town, as far as he could remember.

He should be at the entrance of the town. There was an archway at the entrance. The name of the town should be on the archway. Anping subconsciously felt that it was the name of the town, even though he couldn't see clearly what was written.

Several four or five-year-old children were playing under the archway. They looked full of energy. Their clothes were indeed the style of the Douluo Continent, and they were modern.

There was a straight road through the archway into the town. Busy townspeople were on the road, as if they were transporting things somewhere.

There seemed to be a square at the end of the road. A large group of people seemed to be building something in the square. It looked like they were setting up a stage for a celebration.

The destination of those busy townspeople was the town square, and they were using those things to build the stage for the celebration. They all looked very busy, but he could feel their joyful mood from the laughter coming from them.

Anping felt like he was watching a strange movie as he stood there. The scenes were vivid and real, but there were some things that he wanted to see clearly, but he couldn't remember them.

For example, the words on the archway, the words on the shop signs on both sides of the street, the words of the children playing, the conversations of the townspeople, the license plates of the soul-guided cars, and so on.

It seemed that anything involving information would not be remembered by Anping.

The strange dream lasted until the next morning. As it shattered, Anping sat up from the bed suddenly.

He calmed down his chaotic thoughts and began to use magic to try to get some information from fate. The technique went surprisingly smoothly. The pictures he obtained showed that such a small town did exist. It might even be that his dream was what happened in real time.

The stage for the celebration had not been completed yet, judging from the pictures he obtained from Destiny, and the townspeople were still busy building it.

He thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't figure out what the dream meant. However, Anping understood that the dream must have had a special meaning. He might encounter some danger or some opportunity in this town in the future.

All in all, the dream meant that Anping might interact with this town in the future, but they didn't know whether the final result would be good or bad.

Anping, who was thinking, suddenly felt the trace of consciousness he had left with Gu Yuena being touched. He shook his head and stopped thinking about it, connecting to that trace of consciousness.

Gu Yuena looked at Anping who appeared in her consciousness space, a little confused about why he didn't seem to wake up even though it was just a mental projection. She teased him, "Why do you look so tired? Did you do something with me on your back?"

Anping said angrily, "How is that possible! The mental projection only represents the current mental state. I look like this just because I had a dream last night."

"Dream? Did you dream about me?" Gu Yuena smiled at Anping, with an expression that said if his answer didn't satisfy her, he would die.

"No, it was a strange dream. I dreamed of a small town." Anping shook his head slightly.

"Small town? What was so strange about it?" As if thinking of something, Gu Yuena added: "It's a strange thing that you can dream."

Anping nodded and said: "Yes, logically speaking, I shouldn't be able to dream with my current strength if I didn't actively enter the dream. I have never been to the scene in the dream, but it was real."

Then Anping projected the scene in the dream into Gu Yuena's consciousness space, and told her his guess about the dream.

"Because you are sure that the town is real, you guess that what happened in your dream really happened, and maybe it was synchronized with your dream?" Gu Yuena fell into a state of thinking while repeatedly murmuring the words "real" and "synchronized".

After a moment, Gu Yuena seemed to have thought of something, and asked seriously: "Are you sure that the scene in your dream is how you projected it, right?"

"Yes, is there any problem?" Anping nodded.

Gu Yuena said seriously: "If it really happened simultaneously, then this town is definitely not on the Douluo Continent. It can only be on the Dou ling Continent or the Star Luo Continent."

Anping asked doubtfully,"How do you know that?"

Gu Yuena said angrily: "You're so dense sometimes. Didn't you notice that the scene in your dream was always during the day? And your dream time was at night. If it really happened at the same time, it only means that this town is on one of the other two continents."

"Yeah, I forgot about the time difference." Anping realized the problem after Gu Yuena's reminder.
