Chapter 810: Illusion and Dream
Frode seemed to be full of ideas and immersed in writing. Angel thought for a moment, but did not go forward to disturb him, but looked around his room.
The room was very clean. Every decoration was placed very rigorously, and there were no items placed randomly. It can be seen that even though Frode was dead, he was still very strict with himself in the state of soul.
There was a pile of books next to his pillow.
These books were all conjured by Angel for Frode to kill his boredom. They were basically fantasy novels collected in the holographic tablet. Because Angel had discovered that Frode was interested in novels about transformation such as "The Wind Sword Princess" and "The Crime and Punishment of Lily", or novels similar to rebirth as a beast, he conjured up similar novels.
From the fact that Frode placed them at the head of the bed, it was enough to show his love for this type of novel.
Angel casually flipped through a novel called "The Evil Goddess" and saw that Frode had also written down many thoughts in it with a pen. It was not all positive reviews, but mostly negative ones, with notes like "If I become a woman, I will never spend my first day like this."
Compared to the novel itself, Freud's comments are more interesting.
Perhaps the sound of Angel flipping through the book was too obvious, and Freud, who was writing at his desk, moved his ears. He turned around and found a book floating in the air.
Freud whispered, "Mr. Pat?"
Angel was not embarrassed by being called by his name. Almost every time he came to Freud's room, as long as he slightly moved anything in it, Freud would find it.
It can be seen that Freud himself has an extremely keen observation of details, and he is worthy of being the seed apprentice of the former "Hurricane Tower". However, due to time and fate, he was left in the Purification Sea forever because he trusted Ixu too much.
"I originally planned to ask you something, but seeing that you were so engrossed in writing, I didn't bother you." Angel explained casually.
Freud put down his pen, "Mr. Pat, I wonder what you want to talk to me about?"
Angel told his purpose, mainly to ask for directions. After listening to this, Frode looked apologetic: "Although the Revelation Continent is not big, it is not small either. The place I know best about the Revelation Continent is probably the Central Empire. I know a little about the other 19 principalities."
Since Frode couldn't find the way, Angel didn't stay any longer. He said "I know" and prepared to leave.
But before Angel's mental power withdrew, Frode said: "Sir, wait a moment. I just finished writing a research topic. If you have nothing to do now, you might as well take a look."
Frode showed the pile of papers on the table where he had been writing.
Angel glanced at the cover page, "On the Combination of Illusion and Dream Conch - 3rd Revised Edition".
Seeing the name of this research topic, Angel's eyebrows slightly raised.
In fact, many times before, Angel entered Frode's room and found the research topic "On the Combination of Illusion and Dream Conch". He was quite curious at first. After all, these two things seemed to be completely uncombinable. Why did Frode write them together?
But he was curious, but he didn't ask. Because he could sense that Freud had deliberately put this research topic on the table, in fact, just to attract him to look at it and ask questions.
It was like inviting someone into a trap.
Freud did this, obviously he had his calculations. Angell didn't dislike people who had calculations, but he would not be happy if he was calculated.
Therefore, every time he entered Freud's room, even if Freud put the topic "On the Combination of Illusion and Dream Conch" in the most conspicuous position, Angell always smiled and said nothing after seeing it, never asked, and never flipped through it.
Unexpectedly, this time, Freud finally couldn't help it and took the initiative to hope that Angell could take a look.
Before, Angell was not uncurious, but just too lazy to ask. Now that Freud took the initiative to ask him to read it, he did not refuse.
Angell controlled his mental power, picked up the topic, and read it page by page.
The topic was very thick, but it was mostly some details and supplements. Angell mainly looked at the conclusions. When he finished flipping through it, his expression was slightly strange.
To be precise, this thick pile of records of Freud cannot be called a research topic. Because for a so-called research topic, you must at least have a clear research object and a certain amount of evidence.
However, "On the Combination of Illusion and Dream Conch" does not have these basic conditions.
Speaking of it, it is more like Freud opened a brain hole himself.
What Freud meant was that as long as the illusion is combined with the function of the dream conch, amazing effects will appear.
The function of the dream conch on the Moon Coast is to pull all non-living things into dreams.
This effect, which is recognized as a chicken rib effect in the wizarding world, is written by Freud to almost crush strategic-level mysterious objects.
Freud believes that the dream conch pulls non-living things into dreams, combined with Angel's nightmare fantasy that seems to be real, can do many incredible things. For example, the dream conch can pull alchemical materials into dreams, and even if the alchemical materials are pulled into dreams, they naturally have all their original characteristics, so you can experience alchemy in this dreamlike world.
Even if the alchemical materials in the dream are consumed, the alchemical materials in reality do not disappear. In this way, one material can be refined many times.
What restricts the growth of many alchemists is not talent, but poverty and refining experience. In this way, a large number of alchemists can be cultivated.
Moreover, alchemists cannot bear to consume many precious materials for fear that they will be ruined; they can also pull precious materials into dreams and experiment many times in dreams in order to become proficient, blend alchemy and even control the effect of the final product.
This is a conception of Freud.
In this conception, it is not just alchemical materials. There are also many things that people dare not do in reality but can do here, which are all included.
Freud has even imagined that he can live in a world where dream conch and illusion are combined.
However, at the end of this research topic. Freud also admitted that he was at a loss as to how to solve the combination of illusion and dream conch, and then create a world that is like a dream but not a dream.
Freud said that if Angell felt that this conception had a certain possibility, he could let Angell solve it himself.
After reading this long report, Angell pondered for a moment.
He thought Freud's idea was good, which reminded him of some virtual reality concepts mentioned in the holographic tablet. Freud's conception and the concept of virtual reality actually have some similarities.
However, Frode only had his imagination, and did not consider many practical things.
The most important thing is that although illusion and dream are somewhat similar to each other, they are two completely different concepts in essence. How can they be combined?
Angell personally appreciates this kind of imagination, but he is not very optimistic about it.
But he did not completely think that this plan was not feasible. After all, he had not seen the real dream conch and did not know much about it. And Frode had been in contact with the dream conch before, and he knew the effect of the dream conch, and maybe there was a possibility of operation.
As for the specifics, he would wait until he got the dream conch and then study it.
"It's a good idea, but it's difficult to implement." Angell commented, and just as he was about to further explain the difficulties to Frode, Dulu's exclamation suddenly came from the outside world.
"Lord Pat, I saw someone!"
Angel's originally prepared long speech was choked into his stomach by Dulu's call.
He could only briefly say two words to Frode: "You can continue to think, but I think the possibility of combining fantasy and dream is relatively low. Perhaps, you can see from this book whether you can find the answer."
Angel conjured up a thin book, threw it to Frode, and hurriedly said goodbye and left.
Frode was stunned and picked up the book in his hand.
The name of the page is "Exploring Lucid Dreams".
...
The Revelation Continent is a special one among the many mortal continents near the Devil's Sea.
Because it has entered a peaceful development period a long time ago, and there has been no civil war for many years. Unlike the Old Earth Continent, the small Golden Sparrow Empire alone has internal and external troubles. When Angel left, the war with the Hailan Kingdom had not yet ended.
And in the Feilan Continent, although the Anjou Royal Court is the only one, there are also many covetous countries, and even the Anjou Royal Court in the central wilderness area is difficult to get involved.
So, the Revelation Continent is a very peaceful place. Peace means wealth, means developed business, and also means a strong cultural atmosphere.
Angell is now in the town of Bolai in the Central Empire, a small town close to the capital city, Saint Syme.
According to Frode, his home is in Bolai.
This town is not big when it is overlooked from the air. But when you really land and walk into the town, you will find that although the town is small, it has all the necessary facilities.
Along the way, there are more than 20 large trading companies, including 19 trading companies represented by principalities, which also have branches in Bolai. Angell saw the Rose Trading Company represented by the Principality of Versailles.
From these flourishing trading companies, we can also see how developed the business of the Central Empire is.
The architecture here is also quite distinctive. Almost every house has a unique but unified design. There are fountains and various statues every few steps, and there are many people singing with musical instruments on the street.
This is a town full of comfort, free vitality and cultural atmosphere.
It is not old at all. Angell even feels that it is more comfortable and comfortable than the capitals of many countries.
"When Mr. Jon recovers from his injury, maybe I can bring him here to have a look." Angel thought to himself. Since Jon came to this world, he has hardly left Pat Manor because of his injury. But Angel remembered clearly that Jon was not only obsessed with plants, but also pursued art. The Central Empire is a place that is influenced by culture all year round. Maybe Jon will like it.
While Angel was thinking, the young boy leading the way turned around and said, "Sir, we have arrived at Tissen Lane."
