Main Text Volume Chapter 280 Taking on the Nightmare
Sanders: "The so-called taking on the nightmare realm means handing over the nightmare realm you created to your management."
Angel: "Is it the relationship between the territory and the lord?"
Sanders nodded: "You are not wrong to understand it this way."
Angel's eyes lit up: "You mean, this nightmare realm will be under my jurisdiction from now on? Like the nightmare realm where Xiao Hong exists?"
"Yes."
Angel said excitedly: "Isn't that similar to the Witching Garden? Except that there are no rules, I can use the Nightmare Realm to store items with me. Doesn't that mean I even save space props?!"
Sanders smiled coldly: "You think of beauty."
"Isn't it possible?" Angel looked disappointed.
"Don't compare the nightmare realm with space props. From a fundamental point of view, there is no comparability between the two."
Seeing that Angel was still confused, Sanders sent a message to Angel: "What exactly is the Nightmare Realm? It's difficult to get into the details, because this concept was actually proposed by me. You can understand it as a special Illusion. Since it is an illusion, it naturally does not exist in reality, but exists in an illusory cognition, even in a dream. It is a concept of space, but not a space in a conceptual sense.”
Sanders' words made Angel even more confused: Is there a difference between the concept of space and conceptual space?
"One actually exists, and the other exists virtually." Sanders further simplified the meaning.
"But am I not stepping into a nightmare now? I exist in reality, so how can I step into a virtual existence?" Angel was still puzzled.
Sanders: "This is a bit complicated to explain. Real and virtual, time and space, all concepts actually exist relatively. Let me give you a simple example. Just like the last time I went to Naraku City, time in the nightmare world stagnated. , the flow of time in the wizarding world, although you have gone back and forth to the nightmare world, to outsiders, you have never left at all, so does it mean that the nightmare world you went to is not real? "
"This contains an academic topic commonly discussed by wizards. If you are interested, you can read the revised version of the twisted great wizard Bazel thousands of years ago, "Bazel's Theory: Time, Space and Virtual Reality."
Although Angel still didn't understand the relationship, he generally understood it.
The nightmare realm is an illusory space concept. It is closely connected with the nightmare realm and possesses a series of characteristics of the nightmare realm. But it does not belong to the nightmare world, it is considered a mezzanine space.
Because Sanders was the first to propose the concept of Nightmare Realm, he actually had no further improvements to Nightmare Realm. He only knew that Nightmare Realm and Nightmare Realm were connected. Although he can open up the nightmare realm, he cannot enter the nightmare realm from the nightmare realm. But the monsters in the nightmare world can leave the nightmare world through the nightmare realm and enter the real world. Therefore, whenever a nightmare realm is opened up, it will attract many monsters from the nightmare realm, including many super monsters.
The nightmare is a special kind of fantasy for Sanders. Illusions that incorporate the concept of nightmare will reach an incredible level. This is why Sanders's illusions are the best in the Southern Region.
But the nightmare realm is connected to the nightmare realm. If you are not careful, it is easy for the big monsters in the nightmare realm to enter the wizarding world. So this is a double-edged sword for Sanders. It is powerful when used, but it also has strong consequences.
In order to solve this problem, he studied for decades, and finally got some inspiration from "plane fusion" and "plane splitting".
After opening up a nightmare realm, use special means to cut it off. By completely separating it from the nightmare world, and then integrating it with the wizard himself, you can have the illusion of the nightmare world without having to worry about big monsters.
And this is what is called - bearing the nightmare realm.
There are many benefits to taking on the Nightmare Realm. It can almost instantly allow an illusion wizard to achieve incredible levels of manipulation of illusions. But for what you get, you must pay something. Taking on the nightmare is also very risky.
Because the characteristics of the nightmare realm and the nightmare realm are the same, when the nightmare realm merges into itself, it is easy for people to lose reality and illusion. Therefore, it is best to reach a certain level of illusion skills before you can take on the nightmare realm.
——Flora is a special case. She is not from the illusion system. The reason why she can bear the nightmare realm is because of Xiao Hong's existence. This is a case, Flora's own opportunity, so I can't provide a reference.
"Originally, I wanted to wait for you to become a formal wizard and have certain attainments in illusions, and then get the opportunity to inherit the nightmare realm. But now you have done this, and you have just created the nightmare realm as a junior apprentice, and you almost released that woman. Come out... Sigh!" Sanders looked furious and indignant. He thought Angel was the most worry-free among the three students he had accepted. Although because of his stupid values, he was currently He doesn't look like a wizard yet, but he can be trained... It doesn't matter if he remains an academic wizard for the rest of his life.
But what he didn't expect was that Angel was not a big character, but he was very courageous. He actually dared to stab the sky directly! If he hadn't been in the twilight field, once the monsters in the central area of the nightmare world descended on the wizarding world, the consequences would be unimaginable!
Just imagine, after just a few steps out of the door, you encounter a legendary wizard who yells for fights and kills. After finally hiding in a quiet place, a legendary existence thousands of miles away could sink the continent with just a drop of spit.
In such a situation, how many seedlings will be left in the southern wizarding world?
Sanders had no choice but to break the principles he had adhered to for hundreds of years and rushed to rescue Angel and wipe his ass. How can this make him less angry!
After solving the problem of the monsters in the nightmare world, he also gave Angel a great opportunity.
Although he didn't care about these few benefits, he was furious that he worked for a long time in vain, while the person who broke the sky was resting on his laurels.
What made him even more angry was that the person who broke the sky looked innocent. With a proud look of "I saved the world", he was waiting for you to praise him.
Sanders suppressed the anger that had not risen for decades and said: "The nightmare world was caused by you, and it must be borne by you."
Angel nodded. This was a great thing, and he couldn't refuse it.
"If you don't make it, you will die." Sanders couldn't help but remind him.
"I know, thank you for your concern, mentor." Angel had an expression of "I understand".
Sanders: "..." Who cares about you!
"Teacher, since you care about me so much, I have an unwelcome request, can I ask it?" Angel glanced at Toby who was unconscious in his pocket, with a trace of concern in his eyes.
Sanders looked at Angel, then at Toby, how could he not guess what he wanted to say. Sanders sighed in his heart, Graya did choose the right person for Toby.
"You tell me." Sanders said softly.
Angel raised his head, his eyes burning: "That... I really can't get 100,000 magic crystals together in half a month, mentor, can I borrow some from you? I will definitely pay you back as soon as possible!"
Sanders: "..." Gritted teeth and clenched fists. Graya, you really misjudged the person, this guy is an ungrateful person.
"No." Although Sanders had no expression on his face, these two words came out from his teeth.
"In addition to the 100,000 magic crystals returned to Twilight, I will help you cut off the material costs required by the nightmare realm, about 150,000 magic crystals. This can give you a month's grace, and it will be doubled after the time is up!" Sanders originally didn't intend to talk about the material cost, but since Angel mentioned it, he didn't mind letting out a sigh of relief.
"What?! Why are there another 150,000 magic crystals! Teacher, I'm only a first-level apprentice, how can I pay it back!" Angel's eyes were filled with tears.
Sanders said lightly: "That music box, you made it well. Keep it up."
After that, Sanders turned around and left.
Did Sanders mean for him to continue to make music boxes to pay off his debts? But even so, he couldn't pay back 100,000 magic crystals in half a month! 150,000 magic crystals can't be collected in a month!
Angel now just wanted to stop Sanders, and then tell him righteously: That music box was not made by me! If you don't believe it, go check it out, I didn't send it for auction!
...
The preliminary preparations for taking on the nightmare realm have been completed, and Angel was taken to a corner by Sanders.
"Get ready, it's time to start!" Sanders said.
"Wait a minute!" Angell had a trace of worry on his face: "When I take on the nightmare realm later, will Twilight continue the auction?"
Sanders nodded: "If there is no accident, it should continue."
Because he didn't know how long it would take to take on the nightmare realm, Angell left his bone card to Sanders.
"Teacher, my number is 187. If the auction ends and I haven't finished here, please help me collect the items I bid..." Angell said very solemnly.
Sanders took the bone card, glanced at the balance inside, and raised his mouth slightly: "So you are No. 187, Flora should be very surprised when she knows it."
Angel's forehead oozed a little sweat.
"Okay, as long as you are still alive, I will help you get it." Sanders originally wanted to ask why Angell bid for the material that can only be refined by the master level, but after thinking about it, he still didn't ask.
"Get ready!"
"Wait a minute!"
Sanders frowned: "Do you regret it now? Are you worried about the failure of the nightmare?"
Angel shook his head, with a hint of pleading on his face: "Teacher, I have a very important and unwelcome request. Can you tell me?"
"No." Sanders thought of Angel's previous unwelcome request, and his expression was gloomy.
"I want to ask you to help me take a photo of the eyeless man, no matter how many magic crystals are needed. Even if it takes half a month, I will find a way to return the money to you." Angel pretended not to hear Sanders' refusal and said to himself.
Sanders: "..." I ignored my words, then you still beg me?
In the end, in Angel's pleading eyes, Sanders still didn't harden his heart and ignore Angel: "Are you really willing to pay no matter how many magic crystals are there?"
Angel nodded: "Yes, this is what I owe Toby." He actually knew the news about Greya early on, but for various reasons, he didn't tell Toby. And Toby has been helping him since the day he entered the wizarding world. In Angel's opinion, this is what he owes Toby.
Sanders sighed: "A gourmet wizard, even if he is just an apprentice now. The value is beyond your imagination, perhaps more than the magic crystals you owe. Even if it is over 200,000 magic crystals, are you sure you want to buy it?"
"200,000 magic crystals? So expensive?!" Angel raised his head suddenly and said with lightning speed: "Then forget it."
Sanders: "..." Is this your determination?
Angel: "Teacher, can you please help me remember who took the photo of the eyeless man?"
"You want to rob?" If Angel really thought so, Sanders would be slightly comforted.
Angel shook his head: "I just want to buy it back from someone else when I have money in the future..."
