Chapter 735 Dream Ambush
When Avis's clone at the secret base of [Spark] fell into a dormant state, in the deep dream world, the huge floating city rolled up the struggling Pomona, passed through a special dream rift, and sneaked into the inversion layer at the bottom of the deep dream world.
This rift has a special mechanism. When a being passes through it, the transmission direction of the rift will change randomly, which is used by Avis to temporarily delay the pursuers for a while.
After arriving at the inversion layer, the floating city quickly arrived at a strange small dream according to the dream coordinates. Pomona was thrown into a dream turbulence by Avis just before she was about to break free.
The speed of time in this deep dream turbulence is different from other areas. Even if the ninth level is accidentally involved and escapes at the fastest speed, it is likely that several days have passed in the outside world.
The dream world that Avis is looking for is not large, with an area of only about a few thousand square kilometers, but everything in it is upside down, with the earth above and the sky below.
The grayish-white "sun" reflects the rocks, trees and other objects hanging upside down on the ground. Everything is in a strange black and white color, just like a faded black and white photo.
The floating city and Avis's clone who "broke into" this world also cannot avoid this strange rule, and the colors instantly turned black and white.
At the same time, the strange power that is everywhere in the deep dream world, which makes professionals gradually assimilated and lost, suddenly disappeared in this world, as if it were a kind of refuge, making people unconsciously want to relax their vigilance.
The deep dream world is actually a bit like the ocean. The deeper you dive, the greater the "pressure" in the environment. The power of dreams in turn erodes the existence of non-dreams until they are completely assimilated and stay in dreams forever.
This strange small dream is a battlefield prepared by Avis for possible ninth-level enemies.
Although Pomona's rebellion surprised him a little, this accident did not exceed the scope of his plan.
Compared to the worst-case scenario in his plan, such as the Holy Light Church secretly sending [Saints] to participate in the war, or the incarnation of an ancient being or even the main body coming in person, rebelling against a Pomona is not a big problem.
Shortly after arriving in this dream world, the floating city tower spirit 'Bomia' suddenly sent a reminder: the dream world is blocked by an unknown force and cannot be escaped.
"Give up struggling, blasphemer!"
At the same time, the enemy's figure also appeared in front of Avis.
As Avis expected, the first to chase him into this dream world were the two strange-looking ninth-level apostles of the [Songxing Esoteric Cult].
After entering the deep dream world, they broke away from the humanoid mimicry and completely liberated the huge and weird main body.
One is a huge fireball composed purely of dark flames, and the other is a giant with a humanoid shape, but a twisted giant tentacles on its head.
In Bomiya's scanning analysis, the existence of these two apostles is very special. Not only is their momentum sometimes strong and sometimes weak, but there is also a strange sense of disharmony between their spirit and body.
In other words, they are like some kind of projection that relies on possession.
This is probably why the [Songxing Esoteric Cult] can repeatedly appear the ninth level that has never been recorded before, because they are not originally the existence of this world, but they have been able to descend recently for some reason.
Is it related to the advent of Maelim? Or is it the outbreak of war on the continent, or the expansion of the overlapping area?
When Avis observed them, he saw that the floating city was slow to move, and the huge twisted bodies of the two apostles suddenly became empty and rushed towards the floating city quickly.
As they approached, the faint whispering sounded in Avis's heart, and the endless chaotic and crazy divine information flow revealed in it washed Avis's mind, destroying his reason like an isolated island in a tsunami.
However, the power from the old secret scripture always maintained Avis's mental state, and the faint dark green light shone, absorbing all the extraordinary information pollution transmitted.
This is the innate ability of the apostles. Their existence is equivalent to assimilating all the information pollution sources around them all the time.
The human wave tactics are ineffective against them. Even the ninth level can only resist this indiscriminate information pollution and cannot be immune.
Facing the two attacking apostles, the floating city also "fired at full power", and the magic spire burst out with a blazing white purification beam, forcing them to change their trajectory to avoid it.
Hundreds of high-level alchemical golems flew up from the floating city, and their arrangement positions vaguely formed a three-dimensional magic array structure, entangled the two apostles, forcing them to split their attention to deal with it.
For some reason, Avis never launched the Lightless Moon System and attacks above the ninth level.
The power level of these two apostles is between the newly promoted ninth-level and the old ninth-level. Due to their inherent information pollution passive, if they fight against intelligent life, they are no less difficult than the old ninth-level.
And facing the group of alchemical golems arranged by Avis, their strongest ability is equivalent to non-existence. In addition, due to the incoordination between will and carrier, they can only exert the combat power of the newly promoted ninth-level at most.
However, despite this, hundreds of golems quickly began to fall into disadvantage.
It is almost impossible to contain the ninth-level apostles with non-ninth-level.
But when the two Songxing Esoteric Cult apostles were entangled for a short time, the variables that Avis had been waiting for for a long time finally happened.
As the war progressed, an invisible wave suddenly spread from the ground above and quickly enveloped the entire battlefield.
The moment he detected this wave sweeping over, Avis immediately ordered Bomiya to launch the long-prepared space explosion, forcibly breaking the blockade of the dream world, and without hesitation abandoned the golems that blocked the apostles from escaping.
At the moment of passing through the edge of the dream, Avis suddenly sensed a strong traction and a strong wave containing monotonous information.
"Don't go, stay..."
The next moment, the magic pattern on the surface of the floating city emitted a dazzling light, and the endless magic power from the pseudo-eternal core burst out instantly, breaking free from this traction and leaving this world in an instant.
The two apostles of the Songxing Esoteric Cult also found something wrong, but it was too late.
The color of everything in the dream quickly deepened, and the gray-white sun in the sky turned into a dark round sun. Under the cover of the dark sunlight, the colors of all things were completely covered.
From the outside of the world, the entire dream world was originally like a gray-white bubble, but now it has been stained with pure black and exudes a kind of oppressive fluctuations.
According to the information obtained by Anvis from the inheritance land, the owner of this strange dream is a strange existence that has appeared since the Dark Age.
It cannot move, so its dream is everything it perceives. It does not observe the world through light, so its dream has no color.
To this day, the owner of the dream has disappeared, but its dream still remains here.
In normal times, and the dawn state of this world, this place is harmless. But if a battle involving ancient existence breaks out here, it will trigger a trace of will of the owner of the dream left here.
Since it became conscious, 'it' has never seen its own kind.
Originally, it did not notice that there was anything wrong with this, until at some point, an emotion called 'loneliness' suddenly rose from its heart.
So, it had a dream, in which it saw many beings with different appearances, but all emitting fluctuations similar to itself.
It felt very happy, and merged these beings with itself, and then fell into a deep sleep. It would not wake up again until the next time a "kind" appeared.
According to the records, when darkness falls, everything left in the dream will disappear completely.
After waiting for a while and making sure that the breath of the two apostles had dissipated, Avis crossed out the name of Songxing Esoteric Cult on the enemy list, and then went to the next battlefield he prepared.
Even if they may be just some kind of projection, the consumption of supporting the arrival of such projections must be not small. Being able to deal with two at a time is also a heavy blow to Songxing Esoteric Cult.
