Chapter 247 Dream Spirit

"It's really rare that the three of us are out exploring. Wait a minute, I'll put in a ward."

Just after leaving the tunnel not far away, Carl stopped and took out a mechanical device from the dimension bag and threw it on the ground.

After the thing landed, it started to run quickly and then automatically entered the optical camouflage state.

The huge dark area is different from the Obsidian City. Because the geological structure is relatively hard, its surface on the surface may actually be the roof of someone else's house.

In order not to lose direction during the exploration, Carl can only use his own micro-construct as a coordinate.

"It doesn't matter, my memory is actually not bad."

Watching Carl put the things away, Ying recommended himself in a cold voice.

But Carl dared not rely on others for such things. When it comes to finding the way and finding the remote control, even Carl's parents can't let him trust them.

Because road recognition is a relatively subjective ability, the other party may think that they have a good ability to recognize the road, but in fact they are not very good.

"Show me next time you have a chance. Forget about this time. Hmm~, can we go down to the cave in front?"

Before Carl moved, Hope, who had transformed into a bat, had already flown into the cave.

Ying and Carl followed closely.

Like the outside world, there were mushrooms emitting blue fluorescence in the cave.

Looking at these familiar scenes, Ying felt as if he had returned to his home, at ease.

The two were about to catch up with Hope in front, but suddenly there was a rustling sound in front.

With a frown, Carl's pulse cannons in his palms began to buffer.

But Hope's movements were faster than everyone else.

After a roar, Hope, who was originally the size of a palm, had returned to the appearance of a tiefling.

A pair of fists were raised high, and then they punched a giant lizard on the back.

The sound of bones breaking followed, and the poor giant lizard's spine was broken.

Carl and Ying's mouths twitched slightly, not knowing whether to praise Hope for her quick action or to say that she had exposed her whereabouts.

Raising his hand and throwing a life-sustaining spell, Carl stabilized the giant lizard's situation and then threw it into the giant's dimensional bag.

The giant lizard naturally could not survive in the environment of the dimensional bag, but if it was paired with a life-sustaining spell, its meat could be kept in the state of having just died.

This was a technique Carl heard from his master Mooreban.

"Alas~, so I planned to let Scorpion come as a scout at the beginning."

Looking at Hope helplessly, Carl hesitated and said the reason why he didn't let Hope come with him before.

I don't know if the druid's practice is more inclined to release the natural character, Hope's forbearing character trained in Zoram gradually faded, replaced by the straightforwardness of taking action and trying not to talk too much.

"Sorry, sorry, I really didn't stop. It was about to bite me."

"Huh~, forget it, don't do this next time. Since you've changed back, let's just explore like this."

Accepting the fact that he couldn't return to the surface in a short time, Carl now has a very open mind about many things.

Hope stuck out his tongue embarrassedly, and then followed the two of them and continued to move forward in the tunnel.

There were fewer animals in the tunnel than Carl and his friends thought. After walking and stopping for more than ten minutes, they encountered another violent rat.

"There are no other creatures around. What do you think? Do you want to kill it?"

The psychic blade was created in his hand, and Ying Wuci was about to declare the other party's death sentence.

Carl's face under the helmet twitched twice again, and then he turned his head to Hope and said: "Use the animal conversation technique to ask it for information nearby."

A brief silence covered the tunnel, and only the sound of the violent rat looking at this side vigilantly and squeaking echoed.

"Oh! It can be done this way!"

After being controlled for a few seconds, Hope showed a look of sudden enlightenment.

This made Carl question his aunt's teaching level.

Hope, who finally realized that he, as a druid, had more than just one move to transform into a black bear, quickly calmed down, and then consumed a spell slot to cast the animal conversation spell.

The violent rat, who was originally very wary of Carl and the other two, suddenly became a little gentler. Hope came forward and listened to the other party's report.

When the rat finished speaking, Hope took out some bread and cheese from his dimension bag and threw it to the other party.

Because Carl sometimes reproduced the animation of his previous life, Hope, who was fortunate to be the first audience, was deeply impressed by many plots in "Tom and Jerry", so he had a stereotype that rats like to eat cheese.

"What's the news?"

Without going forward directly, Carl whispered to Hope.

"There is a drow settlement over there, and the rest is mainly inhabited by wild beasts. The rat family is all over the place."

Pointing the direction for Carl, Hope was still immersed in the excitement of applying what she learned in real life.

She actually learned the druid course well, but because Carl was usually with her, she had never been able to put it into practice in her adventures.

Standing by the side with great understanding, waiting for Hope to calm down again, Carl glanced at Ying, who then disappeared into the shadows and left in the direction of the target.

After a while, Ying turned back again.

"That stronghold should be the place occupied by the four drow companions. Like me, they mainly rely on meditation to improve their psychic abilities. However, when I got close just now, I felt that one of them seemed to have discovered me."

As they were describing everything they saw, a gentle and slightly magnetic voice suddenly came to mind in the minds of the three of them.

"Hello friendly outsiders."

For a moment, the bodies of Karl and the three of them felt like electricity was flowing through them.

They couldn't believe that their whereabouts had been discovered like this, and that the other party was actually speaking directly into their consciousness.

After a brief panic, Karl realized that this existence probably had no malicious intent, so he used his spiritual power to answer:

"Who are you?"

As Karl finished his reply, the surroundings fell into silence again.

Just as he was about to take Hope and Shadow out of the tunnel, a spiritual light suddenly lit up nearby.

A drow with glowing eyes teleported over.

She looked at the three Karls, and her eyes stayed on Ying for a moment.

"Hello, friendly outsiders, Su and her companions do not mean any harm. If possible, I hope you can let them go. I will sincerely invite you to our base as a guest."

"Su" is the captain of the four drow who were captured before.

If she had half the understanding of the person in front of her, things wouldn't have developed like this.

"You...don't look like a simple drow?"

Karl was naturally happy to be able to directly resolve the misunderstanding, but the drow situation in front of him also made him a little wary.

The mistakes he had made before flashed quickly in Karl's mind, which not only made Karl feel a little embarrassed, but also made him more vigilant.

"Alas~"

After letting out a long sigh, Drow, whose attainments in psychic abilities were obviously not weak, spoke again:

"Do you know the Limeng people? The Limeng people are special beings born after the spiritual connection between the dream spirits remaining in the main plane and humans. They can pass on this link through blood. As long as the blood is not severed, they can communicate with The spiritual bodies they are linked to will not die.

Now, I am a drow version of Limeng. "

In Eberron, dream spirits and dreamers are mainly concentrated in the hometown of humans - the continent of Sarlona.

However, Limengren is actually a unique name for those humans whose souls are connected to good dream spirits. In contrast, there are also humans who are connected to evil dream spirits.

Such people are also called half-incubus, and the dream spirits that are spiritually linked to them are also called incubi.

They are the embodiment of nightmares, enslaving the humans of Saulona continent with their spiritual powers.

Karl had previously conducted research on the ritual circle held by the fallen drow, and its origin was suspected to point to the incubus.

After listening to the self-introduction of the person in front of him, a light suddenly flashed in Karl's mind.

'In addition to being more evil, the other characteristics of the Inspired Spirits are exactly the same as those of the Limen. They can also pass on their inheritance through blood. As long as the bloodline on this branch is not extinct, the corresponding Incubus Spirit will not die...'

For a moment, Karl thought of another reason why those fallen drow chose to use that method to enhance their psychic abilities.

As if he had read through Karl's thoughts, the Limeng Drow floating in the air nodded gently.

"Yes, just as you thought, besides me, there is also an Incubus spirit that has also descended on this continent. Many years ago, we fought with each other with the help of linkers, and her linker Rose was fighting. and then died,

I thought I would destroy her, so I spread the power of psychic energy in the hope that the drow could follow the path of light.

However, Rose's bloodline was not cut off. After a long slumber, as Rose's bloodline grew again, she also woke up from her slumber and began to..."

The drow in front of him did not continue to say the next words, but Karl and the other three could also think of it.

However, Karl couldn't help but frown when he heard how the drow in front of him positioned himself in the description.

Zhuoer on the opposite side smiled brightly and then explained:

"I have lived for too long. As I fall asleep again and again, my memories and hers are intertwined with each other, and they are almost indistinguishable from each other. Drow are different from humans. Only one individual who can directly carry the Dream Spirit can only be found thousands of miles away. Since the death of the drow commander Rose, no drow in her bloodline has been able to truly carry her. She only passed on certain knowledge about psychic powers to Rose's bloodline through her limited influence ability. ”

Having said this, the drow in front of him pointed towards Ying.

"The long years have allowed our two bloodlines to spread among the many drow in the Underdark, and we are even somewhat indistinguishable from each other. In terms of bloodline, she is my descendant, but she does not have the spiritual ability to carry dream spirits. Can be gifted.”

His eyes jumped back and forth several times between the drow in front of him and the shadow beside him, and Karl nodded in surprise.
