Super Dimensional Wizard

Chapter 3644 Collapse of the Dream Realm

 Have you entered the realm of dreams?

Hearing this news, Starworm subconsciously raised his head and looked outside the dome, wanting to see what the most illusory realm in the legend looked like.

 But he forgot that the dome had been transformed into frosted glass, and he could see nothing except a large amount of colored mist.

The owl seemed to have guessed Starworm's thoughts, and raised its head, its dark eyes looking at the blurry skylight above its head.

“Don’t even think about seeing the scene in the dream world. Any picture presented in the dream world may be false, especially the closer you get to the dream world, the higher the degree of illusion.”

"For example, the scene outside now." Owl: "You can't see it, but I can describe it to you. At this time, there are many tall buildings outside. The colorful aerosol you see is actually various kinds of smoke on the building. Color neon.”

“Such a scene is obviously not real, but a dream.”

At this point, the owl withdrew its gaze, remained still, turned its head 180 degrees, and looked at the starworm: "If this dream comes from the dream of an intelligent creature from the outside world, then that's it. It's dangerous. Sex is not high.”

“But if this dream is a bait deliberately placed here by a being from the dream world, it would be very dangerous.”

 Starworm: "Even the train conductor thinks that life in the dream world is in danger?"

The owl blinked: "Of course, I'm not good at fighting. Have you forgotten, I just said that my position was given to me because of my popularity. Let me fight those dream world beings, I definitely can’t.”

Although the owl’s words were righteous, Starworm didn’t believe them at all.

 The order set by the Star Master is not static.

 Whichever order you are in, you will complete the tasks corresponding to that order. The higher the order, the importance and difficulty of the task will increase accordingly.

 Once an error occurs in a task, the ranking will also drop accordingly.

 Owl can be ranked 005, which is enough to show that the opponent is not simple.

 Even if he may not be good at combat, he must be extremely outstanding in other aspects, otherwise it would be impossible to maintain the top five rankings.

and…

Starworm doesn’t think that the owl’s combat power will be poor. It is impossible to succeed in a difficult task if you do not have the strength to back it up.

Although Starworm didn't say a word, the owl could see that he was full of disbelief.

It doesn’t bother to correct it.

 What it says is true. Its combat power is indeed not very good, but its popularity is really good...

“Besides, not just me, even if many orders who are good at fighting come here, they may not be able to defeat those dream world beings.” Owl: “Their power is completely different from the outside world.”

 Starworm subconsciously asked: "What's the difference?"

Owl: "A lot of their power is 'ideal'. Some creatures in the dream world may have been a small loach one second, but when their souls flash, they may become a behemoth comparable to the mainland in the next second."

"There are also some dream creatures that don't seem to be strong, but they are also difficult to kill. They may have some other spiritual abilities. For example, if they think you can't catch up with them, then even if you can run away, there is nothing you can do. Go after it.”

The dark starry sky under the brim of Star Bug's hat flickered for a moment, and a doubtful voice came out: "Can't you catch up even with the speed of the Star Sea Train?"

Owl: "It's hard to say. Some of the side columns may not be able to catch up. But the main column where the Star Master is located will definitely be able to catch up. There is no doubt about it."

Although the owl said that the Zhenglie will definitely catch up...but the Zhenglie is a truly miraculous creation, and its twinkling light can illuminate the boundless plane. It is incredible that the ability of the creatures in the dream world can restrain Zhengli.

Star Bug made a little comparison, and he was already a little afraid of the creatures in the dream world.

I prayed silently in my heart that on this new journey, no travelers from the dream world would come. His ordinary carriage cannot suppress these idealistic monsters... If you want to board the train, go to the first 100 trains, at least there is a hidden carriage there.

Just as Starworm was praying in his heart, the hall suddenly shook.

Immediately afterwards, the light outside the frosted glass changed from colorful mist to pitch black.

 At the same time, greater shaking came from the ground.

 It seemed as if there was a big earthquake.

 “What happened?” Starworm looked outside in surprise.

To avoid spraining his feet, the Starworm floated into the air with stars twinkling under his feet.

The owl also flapped its wings and flew up. As it flew, it looked outside quietly, as if it was communicating with something.

After a while, the voice of an owl came to my ears: "Don't worry, the track is passing through a dream realm, going to the gap between the dream world and other realms. As for the vibration, it is because this dream realm is not stable."

“The gap between the dream world and other realms? Isn’t our goal the dream world?” Starworm asked doubtfully.

 The owl shook its head left and right like a fan: "No, our target is in the gap area."

"Then we are... going to pick up the guests and get them on the bus?" Starworm's tone was obviously more cautious when it came to the mission of this trip.

 Some train conductors don’t like to state the mission goal directly. For example, the previous demon conductor had a very bad character. Rather than directly announcing it, it preferred to let people guess its purpose.

 If you guess incorrectly, you may get burned in your heart.

There are also some train conductors who like to be riddlers and will not reveal the answer until the last moment.

 Starworm didn't know what kind of situation this Owl Train Conductor was in. He could only carefully explore the other side's boundaries.

Owl shook his head: "I don't know if anyone will get on the bus. I'll make a last-minute decision after I leave."

 “Temporary decision? Unfixed task?”

The owl nodded: "It's almost the same. It depends on the specific situation and the specific response. But don't worry, as long as I'm here, there won't usually be a fight."

“If a battle really breaks out, this train will be scrapped.”

 Starworm: “???”

Is it so cruel? He is worthy of being one of the top five train conductors. The task is so difficult that the auxiliary train may be scrapped?

 Speaking of which, what is the goal this time? !

Owl shrugged: "I really don't know about this. I can only go and see the situation later. However, the fact that the Star Lord asked me to come probably means that there are some old friends of mine here."

“Don’t worry, I’m very popular. If you meet an old friend, this mission should be easy to solve.”

The owl once again reassured Starworm, but the more it said this, the more starworm became worried.

Especially, the moment the owl finished speaking, the hall shook again, and the vibration frequency was even stronger than before.

Even the marble floor had a double image due to the vibration.

Although the Starworm was not affected, seeing such an astonishing shock, he still had a premonition of something bad about the upcoming journey...

 The owl turned its head 720 degrees, seeming to be checking the situation outside.

 A few seconds later, the owl said with a serious expression: "The dreamland outside is collapsing..."

 “Collapse?”

 The owl nodded; "It must be a dreaming creature, about to wake up."

Starworm said with a solemn tone: "Will that affect the train?"

Owl: "The Star Sea Train can definitely withstand the collapse of the Dream Realm, but... we may derail, fall into a deep dream, and get lost in it."

 Starworm: "In that case, why are the tracks laid in the dreams of living beings..."

 Orbits can be resurrected. Dreaming creatures will be broken when they wake up, and they will be resurrected from their slumber. But the track can be resurrected, but if the train derails and is lost in a deep dream, it will be difficult to reposition the track. Because there is no "direction" in deep dreams.

The owl spread its wings: "If you ask me, I don't know. It's the orbit that the Star Master went to discuss. Even if the orbit is in the dream realm of living beings, we can only recognize it."

The owl sighed for a few seconds and looked at the outside world again.

 Because the Star Master did not discuss the permission for the Star Sea Train to jump in the dream world, the Star Sea Train can only run on the track step by step.

At this time, the speed of the Xinghai Train has reached its extreme.

 In front is the swaying dreamland, and behind is the collapsed dark abyss...

If you look at it from a long distance, it's like a doomsday battle royale, except this time it's not a living being escaping, but a train with twinkling stars.

 The tracks behind were constantly broken and swallowed into the abyss.

Moreover, the Dream Realm is collapsing faster and faster, and it is about to catch up with the Star Sea Train.

At the moment when the Star Sea Train was about to fall, the owl in the dome hall sighed softly: "I can only ask it for help..."

 “Who?” Starworm’s eyes flashed with confusion.

Owl: "Who else could it be? The one I asked to help lay the track...a creature from the dream world."

Less than a second after the words fell, Starworm found a huge hand and directly pinched the dome outside the hall.

Even though it is covered by frosted glass, the outline of the giant hand can still be seen through the frosted glossy surface.

At the moment when the giant hand grasped the dome, the owl waved its wings slightly, and an illusory geometric outline surrounded the entire hall. The moment the geometric shadow stabilized the hall, the vibration disappeared, as if the train had entered a plain.

Even though the giant hand lifted the train, they didn't feel the slightest bump inside.

 At this moment.

From the perspective of the outside world, a huge creature that looks like a mountain has caught the Star Sea Train, but its body has been surrounded by the abyss and is about to fall...

But a second before it fell, its arm muscles swelled up suddenly, and with one force, the Xinghai Train was thrown forward.

 With the blessing of this external force.

The Star Sea Train was like a bolt of lightning. In just an instant, it broke through the limitations of this dreamland and came to the stable dark void outside...

 …

 In the dome hall.

 The Starworm breathed a sigh of relief after learning that it had escaped from the unstable dream realm.

"The dream creature just now seemed to have fallen into a deep dream...Is there something wrong?" Although he didn't know who the other party was, after all, they escaped from danger with the help of the other party.

 After learning that the dream world creature fell into a deep dream, Starworm couldn't help but worry about it.

You must know that the deep dream is a forbidden place in the dream world. Even if a legendary being enters it, it is possible to get lost and die.

Facing Starworm's worries, Owl was very calm: "Don't worry, it is my old friend. It came from a deep dream. It will be fine."

 Starworm: “???”

 A dream creature from deep dreams? !

Since the other party comes from Deep Dream and is an old friend of Owl, even if they just fell into Deep Dream, there shouldn't be any big problem, right?

The solemn atmosphere created by the owl just now made Starworm almost think that he was almost done playing.

Owl: "...Even with its guidance, it will take a long time to get out of the deep dream. Moreover, the star master has not agreed on the route into the deep dream, and it will be illegal to drive by then."

 Starworm: “…”

 Starworm didn’t know what to say in reply, so he could only stay silent.

Perhaps he just escaped from death, but at this moment, he actually felt a little emotional in his heart.

The dream realm just now may mean that the dreaming creature is just an ordinary intelligent insect. In normal times, even ordinary people can crush it to death.

 But for such a small creature, its dream entered the dream world, and under the influence of invisible forces, it became extremely weird.

Even the Star Sea Train traveling across the void almost hit the road.

 It is enough to see the weirdness of the dream world.

“I now understand why the dream world and the nightmare world are the special worlds that creatures in the boundless plane are most afraid of...”

 Starworm said while sighing.

When the owl heard what he said, he turned his head and said with a smile: "Although I don't know why you suddenly felt this way, I can quietly reveal a piece of news to you."

Starworm: "?"

The owl's head tilted to one side, with an inexplicable light shining in its eyes: "The gap area we are going to this time is the gap area between the dream world and the nightmare world."

Starworm: "!"

 After a moment of incredible shock, Starworm asked doubtfully: "Is there a gap between the dream world and the nightmare world?"

The owl shrugged: "Maybe it didn't exist before, but now, it exists."

 “Why did the gap area suddenly appear?”

Facing Starworm’s question, Owl shook his head, expressing that he didn’t know.

 But in fact, Owl had some vague guesses from what the Star Master revealed.

 But there is no need to tell Starworm these things.

“I will tell you when you become a maintainer and reach a five-star train conductor status.”

 Starworm: “…”

 Sustainer, this is also his goal. However, it has taken him hundreds of years to become a three-star train conductor and a 'permanent waiter'. No one knows how long it will take for him to continue to be promoted.

 At that time, he was probably no longer interested in this information.

“Don’t be so pessimistic about the future. You may have a role in this mission. If your participation is high enough, it is not impossible to be promoted to a five-star train conductor by the star master.”

“After all, the Star Master takes this mission very seriously.”

Seeing that Starworm's curiosity was aroused, Owl stopped talking and stopped.

 It turned its head and looked outside the dome.

 “It’s so peaceful…”

There is nothing in the void, only endless darkness.

"There is nothing outside, not even a trace of a dream. If you tell others that this is a gap in a dream, no one will believe it."

“But the calmer you are, the more uneasy you feel inside.”

 “Are there really any of my old friends here?”
