Chapter 503: Painting Within a Painting

"Lindsay, are you so anxious that you are confused?"

"I am just a fifth-stage painter, how can I create a psychedelic dream?"

"If I really have that ability, would we still be afraid of our current situation?"

At this moment, the city was divided, the sea was turbulent, and the humidity of the air was rising.

Arasong couldn't understand Lindsay's method for a while, and he just felt that his companion was whimsical, and even affected by the chaotic laws of the world.

Lindsay stepped on the restless ground in front of him:

"The psychedelic dreams of the City of Thousand Sails interfere with each other and affect each other."

"Arason, think about it carefully. If we open the impression channel here, we may be able to take refuge in other worlds first, just like when we entered here!"

"You..." Arason wanted to refute Lindsay's method, but after a serious analysis, "You, don't say it! This is indeed possible!"

Following this line of thought, the one-armed painter raised a new doubt:

"But the impression channel must at least have what the scenery on the other side looks like."

"If we continue to paint the City of Thousand Sails, we may not be able to return to reality, but may end up in other corners of this world."

"So, what should I paint?"

"Sea! Paint a sea!"

Young Selena suddenly spoke up.

As this period of time passed, the memory in her mind became clearer and clearer:

"I, my future self, was dragged to another world, where there is an endless sea!"

It was no problem for Alason to paint the sea. He expressed his last doubts:

"What about the token that anchors the coordinates?"

Linsey lifted up the young Selina:

"What do you think of her?"

"..."

No problem at all.

Walawala herself is in the corresponding world, so there is no problem using her as a coordinate.

"...Let's give it a try."

Alason nodded in agreement and took out his paintbrush.

At this moment, everything in the reflection world has fallen apart.

The City of Thousand Sails turned into small islands floating on the sea, like stars reflecting on the sea.

The floor under the feet of the area where Linsey and the other two stood began to twist.

Alason did not dare to hesitate.

He held the paintbrush and led the sea water next to him to the ground.

At this moment, he did not care about any painting techniques, so he used sea water as pigment and used the source to activate the painting skills. A plain and ubiquitous water pattern was printed on the ground by him.

"Selena!"

Young Selena stretched out her right hand.

Arasong treated children very gently.

He carefully led Selena and pressed her small palm on the ground.

Snap——

With the input of the source material that served as the coordinate, this ordinary sea water picture changed instantly.

The surface of the painting seemed to be rippling with waves.

The sun cast upwards, giving people a shimmering feeling.

And in Lindsay's sight next to him, the picture lit up instantly, and the corresponding information also emerged at the same time.

[Impression Channel·Psychedelic Dream——The entrance to the psychedelic door opened by special means. 】

"No problem, let's go!"

Lindsay jumped forward without saying a word.

He hugged Arasong and young Selena with his left and right hands respectively, and the three of them stepped into the unfamiliar sea together.

Almost at the same time, the ground of this city shook more fiercely.

It originally wanted to attack Lindsay who was standing on it, but suddenly found that they were all gone.

"......?"

The city fragment paused in place, as if a little confused.

A few seconds later, it floated to the distant ocean like other city fragments, and then disappeared without a trace.

...

Splash——

On the other side. Lindsay's head just emerged from the water.

In an instant, the bright sunshine sprinkled from the top of his head, covering the surrounding sea surface with a layer of golden light.

He looked around.

The surrounding area was all blue and jade-like ocean.

Except for the occasional sea breeze, there was no trace of even a seabird.

"Where is this again?"

Lindsay raised his eyebrows.

He exerted force with both hands, and Alason and Selina, who were all wet, also emerged from the water.

"Hey, this time it's still good news and bad news."

Lindsay tried to adjust the tense atmosphere:

"The good news is that this place is not as chaotic as the last world; but the bad news is that we don't know where we are now, and we may be lost."

Alason rolled his eyes at Lindsay.

The painter quickly drew a simple wooden boat with a pen, and the three of them climbed up and sat on it reluctantly:

"So, what should we do now?"

"This world looks safe. But what if this place becomes like the last world later..."

Linsey shook his head and rejected it:

"No, it won't."

He used the [Puzzle Game] skill to scout the environment.

The rules and source of the world here are quite stable, not as exaggerated as the last reflection world.

Linsey said his own inference:

"The chaos of the last psychedelic dream should be related to the fact that it is a reflection of the world and presents the picture of the City of Thousand Sails."

"A normal psychedelic dream is a completely independent world. How can it be mixed with so many complex forces?"

"I hope so." Alason accepted Linsey's explanation and continued, "But since the power here is not so chaotic, how should we create an impression channel and get out of here?"

Linsey replied:

"The safest way is to find its original entrance and exit."

"After all, this is also a psychedelic dream."

After exchanging opinions with Alason, Lindsay turned his eyes to Selina beside him.

At this time, although Selina inherited the memory of the future, her fear of sea water was very obvious.

She went in and out of the sea water for a short time.

But her little face was still pale with fear:

"Selina, are you okay?"

Lindsay mobilized the power of [Ice and Fire Emblem] to dry the other's clothes and warm them up.

Young Selina moved closer to Lindsay's arms and rubbed gently:

"Lindsay, call me Walawala."

Lindsay's face was happy:

"You remember everything."

The petite Walawala shrank her body:

"I basically remember everything."

"Although it's a bit confusing, at most I'm just a little slower in reaction."

Walawala stretched out her small palm.

As he grasped and held it, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up a little:

"I really miss this body, it was when I was very young."

"But, Lindsay, I went to the City of Thousand Sails without your help. If I hadn't run fast enough, I would have to be a special actor in some secret theater."

Lindsay slapped Walawala on the head:

"Don't talk about such topics that are not suitable for children!"

"Now that you remember it, tell me, where is your original body?"

Walawala's eyes suddenly became tearful, and her two little hands hugged Lindsay's waist:

"Big brother, don't hit me, it hurts!"

"..."

Arasong looked at the two with strange eyes.

It was as if the couple was playing some new and strange tricks under the sun.

Lindsay was directly beaten by Walawala.

He wasn't sure if it was the little girl's instinct to cry out in pain, or if the real Walawala was acting like a spoiled child to him:

"You... that was my fault, I apologize to you."

Walawala chuckled.

She patted Lindsay's waist gently, then stood up and said:

"There is a huge vortex in the ocean of this world."

"I was pulled in by a powerful force, unable to resist, and then I lost consciousness."
