Section 907 Memory Decay
Early in the morning, when Oli pushed the dining cart into Angel's room, she found Angel writing at his desk. Thick papers were piled around him, and even a few draft papers were floating on the ground.
Seeing that Angel didn't notice her, Oli squatted down and prepared to pick up the draft papers first.
While picking up, Oli took a curious look at the contents of the draft paper.
Complex three-dimensional geometric patterns, various strange symbols, and rows of formulas filled with words. Although Oli couldn't understand these formulas, for some reason, these numbers seemed to have a kind of magic that attracted her attention and made her unable to help but continue to stare at them.
In Oli's eyes, these numbers and formulas seemed to come alive, slowly rotating, and finally formed a dark door. The door was full of temptation. There was a voice that seemed to urge her in her ear, tempting her to step into this door...
Tear
Oli suddenly trembled and recovered from the strange state.
She raised her head, but saw Angel in a white thin shirt standing in front of her at some point. The breeze in the early morning blew up the curtains, and the warm sunshine outlined Angel's handsome profile.
"Oli, are you okay?"
Angel's voice pulled Oli back to reality from her reverie, and she noticed that the draft paper she had held in her hand had been taken away by Angel and torn into two halves.
Oli's cheeks flushed slightly, and she lowered her head and said, "I just wanted to sort it out, but I didn't expect that suddenly..."
"These magic formulas themselves contain some truths. If your mental power is not up to standard, it will be very dangerous to see these, and you may lose yourself."
Oli nodded with some fear and stood up from the ground.
Angel waved his hand, and a cleaning spell swept over. The surrounding draft papers seemed to have a pair of wings installed, making a rustling sound in the air, and finally all returned to their positions and fell neatly on the desk.
Oli was a little dazzled, and it took her a while to react that she was here to deliver breakfast.
"Master, breakfast includes sap from the milk fruit tree and cocoa flowers; breakfast sausage smoked by Maid Mana, a plate of chicken and mushroom soup, fruit after the meal, and... fried rice I made." As Oli said, she put the breakfast on the table.
Although Angel was not hungry, he did not refuse Oli's kindness.
While eating, Angel asked, "How is my brother now? Is he awake?"
"The Viscount woke up for a while, drank some soup, and fell asleep again. The doctor said that the Viscount recovered very well and should recover soon." Oli stood aside and said respectfully.
"That's good." Angel originally said to go see Leon, since he fell asleep again, he would go later when he wakes up.
After finishing breakfast, Angel said to Oli: "You almost fell into a maze just now. Don't work today, go back and have a rest."
Oli was stunned for a moment, and nodded gently: "I know, thank you for your concern, young master."
After Oli left, Angel returned to the desk and destroyed the draft papers he had sorted out before. Only the final design was left, a geometric figure that looked extremely mysterious.
This is the "lock" that Angel spent a night designing.
It is mainly used to place the main body of the nightmare. Now the main body of the nightmare is still exposed outside without protection. Although there is no danger at present, who can tell what will happen in the future?
Of course, although the ultimate purpose of the "lock" is to place the main body of the nightmare, it only needs to be brought to the dream wilderness with the dream conch to take effect.
In reality, Angel's "lock" will not disappear. In order not to waste resources, this "lock" at least needs to help him in reality.
His biggest problem in reality now is that he is surrounded by two wizards, Eureka and Xiuyis. Anything he does will be noticed by them, and it is too extravagant to use nightmare to cover it.
Therefore, he hopes that this "lock" can block the outside world's prying.
Another point is that every time Angel uses the dream conch, mysterious fluctuations will be generated. Wizards are extremely sensitive to mysterious fluctuations. If they are sensed by them, the follow-up will be very troublesome.
Therefore, it would be best if this "lock" can block mysterious fluctuations.
However, Angel designed it all night and found that the magic arrays that can block mysterious fluctuations have at least 20 magic patterns, that is, at least a high-level guarantee, which is not something he can involve at this stage.
Finally, he chose a magic array composed of five magic patterns: breathless confinement.
This is a magic array that combines defense, concealment and hiding breath, which is suitable for the concept of "lock". Although breathless confinement cannot completely block mysterious fluctuations, with some tricks, Angel can suppress the dissipation of mysterious fluctuations to within 100 meters.
Angel didn't start refining immediately, because he had never refined the breathless confinement before, and he needed a familiar process. In addition, there were some things in reality that he needed to solve first.
After putting the design drawings into the bracelet, Angel planned to go see Jon first.
However, before he left, he heard the flapping of wings outside the window. Looking back, he saw Bree squatting on the balcony railing, staring at Angel with her round eyes.
Angel raised his eyebrows: "It's broad daylight, I remember that the owl should go to bed, right?"
"I told you, I'm different from ordinary owls! I can stay up all the time!" After Bree finished speaking angrily, she seemed to think of something, her attitude suddenly changed sharply, and she said to Angel in a flattering tone: "I just said that before. I heard that you are such a great alchemist."
"Then what?" While talking to Bree, Angel walked to the closet, took out a black vest embroidered with silver dark patterns, and put it on over a white shirt.
"I heard from the master before that you seemed to have promised to refine a single-sided spectacle for me." Bree tried carefully.
"Okay, what kind of unilateral glasses do you want? Give me a sample later." Angel would not shirk what he had promised, not to mention that refining unilateral glasses is not difficult.
Seeing that Angel was so easy to talk to, Bree narrowed her glasses into a slit when she smiled.
It didn't have any rules of its own, so it could only run back and ask Yurika.
…
On the other side, Angel came to the ice room and entered Jon's dream.
As soon as he fell asleep, Jon, who was in a clear dream state, immediately sensed Angel's arrival and pretended to be indifferent: "Are you here?"
Angel said cooperatively: "I'm here."
"I have reincarnated spring and summer here countless times, and I don't know how long it has been in the outside world?" Jon asked.
"Three and a half months."
"It's only three and a half months." Jon sighed: "I thought it had been three years, but my perception of time here is getting weaker and weaker."
The reason why Jon has difficulty perceiving time is because he is in his own dream and can completely change the time. With the constant interlacing of time, the concept of time will gradually become blurred.
Through Jon, Angel looked at the surrounding scenery. He found that Jon was currently in a banquet room. This banquet room was familiar to him. It was the living room of his family's main castle.
There were all kinds of delicacies in front of Jon, and he ate them boredly with a knife and fork.
"Alas, when I knew this was a dream, I noticed that the food was really like chewing wax." Jon sighed: "I can imagine all kinds of delicious food, but it tastes tasteless. It's really torturous. ”
"Then you still fantasize about eating?"
Jon pointed to the other side of the table: "I didn't think about it, but you were coming, so I prepared it specially for you."
Specially prepared for me? Angel looked confused and looked in the direction of Jon's finger. I saw two people sitting across the table, one was a burly young man, and the other was a beautiful woman with a faint smile.
"He is...Old Pat?" When Angel saw the young man, he was in a daze for a moment.
"That's right, despite the paunchy appearance of old Pat later, he was also very handsome and handsome when he was young." Jon paused: "Lion inherited your father's appearance, but you are more like your mother. "
When Jon said this, he suddenly looked at the beautiful woman on the other side.
The smiling woman waved her hand gently: "Angel, it's a pity that I didn't grow up with you, but don't forget that my mother loves you too."
Angel was stunned. When he started to remember, his mother had already left. He had seen his mother's portrait, but it looked graceful and luxurious, with a sense of alienation... He had never seen his mother's voice and smile so clearly like now.
Although he knew that this was Jon's illusion and that those words were deliberately spoken by Jon, Angel still couldn't help but feel excited.
After a long time, Angel said softly: "Thank you."
"My memory is also fading, and the scenes where I can clearly remember your mother are becoming less and less. Although she did not accompany you to grow up, her love for you has not diminished at all. And what your mother said just now, It was also what she asked me to tell you before she passed away."
As Jon was talking, the scene in his dream suddenly faded. Jon was stunned for a moment, and then the scene slowly returned to normal.
"What...is going on?" Angel was a little surprised. He knew that Jon's brain was injured, which caused his dream world to be incomplete, but the blur was basically an unintentional background, and even the main scene was blurred. But it is extremely rare.
Jon sighed and shook his head: "It's always been like this lately, so I don't dare to change the scene too much."
Angel seemed to remember something. When he entered Jon's dream, he would always see Jon's wife and daughter. But this time, after he entered Jon's dream, he didn't see them.
Is it because there is a problem with Jon's condition?
"My memory has also been fading recently. I have forgotten many things. I am really afraid that one day I will forget you too." Jon shook his head: "But I am worth it. I thought I was dead, but I didn't expect you are still there." I lingered in my dream for a while.”
Angel was silent for a moment, thinking in his mind that although Jon was dreaming now, his consciousness and all his memories were still bound to his brain. So when his body deteriorated, it also reflected in his dreams.
If Jon is taken to the Wilderness of Dreams now, the aura of consciousness will not be affected by the body for the time being, and there should be no memory decay.
Angel was originally considering whether to let Jon adapt to life in the Dream Wilderness in advance.
But the state in which Jon appeared now made him make a decision.
Thinking of this, Angel slowly told the specific situation of "The Wilderness of Dreams".
