Chapter 336 The Sun in the Dream

"It may not be Mordenkain's private chamber. Many high-level spells involving force fields will cause the teleportation function to fail. Maybe the abnormality here is caused by something, such as... the Eternal Furnace."

Considering that he and his companions were brought here by the adamantine key, and Ruiyizhuoer believed that the storm in Lonely Mountain led to the location of the Eternal Furnace, Carl felt that his current experience was caused by the Eternal Furnace.

Since the Eternal Furnace was not discovered by Ruiyizhuoer's people until the Lonely Mountain incident, it proves that it itself or within a certain range may have unpredictable and unpredictable characteristics.

This means that Carl cannot use the banishment spell to teleport himself and others back to the main plane as he did in the dungeon demiplane before, and the people in the main plane cannot use any spells to observe their safety.

"What should we do now? If we can't teleport, we can't return to the main plane. Are we going to be trapped here forever?"

Looking at the beautiful scenery outside, Mitris seemed a little anxious.

What if her afterlife bar was taken away by someone? !

Seeing her like this, Nia patted her shoulder and explained softly:

"No matter how powerful the device is, it must have an effective range. As long as we can leave a certain range, we should be able to try to teleport back to the main plane.

In recent years, there have been no problems for mages traveling back and forth to the air elemental plane. At least it shows that the situation we are currently facing is only a special phenomenon of the air elemental plane, not a widespread phenomenon."

Having said that, the teleportation spells mastered by Nia and Iris are limited in distance and can only be teleported within the plane they are in.

And most of the teleportation spells belong to the School of Conjuration. Nia of the School of Change has only some knowledge of it, but has not learned it.

Although every mage can theoretically learn spells from all schools, the reason why schools exist, in addition to the increase in learning efficiency brought by the specialization characteristics of the school, there are also corresponding disadvantages.

That is, they will find it difficult to concentrate when casting spells from non-specialized schools, which usually leads to spell casting failures and unpredictable consequences.

If a low-level spell fails, it fails, but the higher the level of the spell, the greater the harm it may cause.

This is why Nia, a wizard genius, did not learn too many spells from other schools. In addition to the time cost and the benefits are not proportional, it is easy to go wrong when releasing.

Of course, scrolls and wands are not included. As long as you can understand the logic of the spell and meet the requirements of synchronization, anyone can use their effects.

"Well, it seems that we have a preliminary goal! First find the boundary of the Eternal Furnace's influence range!"

After listening to everyone's discussion with satisfaction, Carl nodded and sat back in the driver's seat.

Holding the steering wheel with both hands, the feeling of being one with the machine rose again.

'Huh~, I haven't driven a car in the air elemental plane yet. How do the creatures here reproduce? Just floating in the air? Hiss~ I want to try it! '

Complex thoughts flashed through his mind, and Carl stepped on the clutch and accelerator, shifted gears and rushed forward.

However, the truck had just driven a distance when the soil below shattered.

The wheels were spinning, and the entire truck was floating in the air, unable to go anywhere.

"Oh no! I forgot the specialness of the air elemental plane!

I heard that the gravity here is idealistic. You will fall in the direction you think is down. We now have a truck as a reference and can stand in the truck compartment, but how can the truck determine which is down?"

Looking at the dirt floating around the truck, Carl felt that his group of people were like satellite astronauts who had lost power in outer space.

The compartment suddenly fell into silence. Nia and Iris frowned and thought, but they had no clue for a while.

Seeing the truck floating like this, Carl thought for a moment and decided to try it.

Putting on the power armor again, he activated part of the truck's weapons and let the hidden floating gun reappear.

Then, he directly connected to the mecha's operating system, but still retained its truck appearance.

With the connection between the two, suddenly, the truck began to fall sharply in the direction of the chassis.

Carl's idea had an impact on the gravity of the truck itself!

Strangely, the other people inside the truck did not lose weight due to the sudden fall of the truck. They still sat quietly in their seats without being affected.

"What a wonderful experience."

It was rare that Ying, who had not said a word for three days, actually spoke.

However, seeing that she seemed eager to fly, Carl quickly controlled the truck to close the doors and windows.

After ensuring that Ying would not open the windows for ventilation, Carl's thoughts turned into command programs for the mecha, making it change rapidly.

"Start perspective conversion, switch sensors, target, front of the truck!"

As Carl's commands took effect, his power armor helmet suddenly connected to the camera on the front of the truck. At the same time, Carl himself felt that he was lifted up and his feet were facing the front of the truck.

The speed of the falling truck gradually slowed down, but it began to slowly accelerate in the direction of the front of the truck.

Carl used his own illusion of gravity to change the direction and let the truck drive in mid-air.

The two activated floating cannons are attached to both sides of the truck, one on the left and one on the right. They continuously compress the air and use the air element to accumulate energy, allowing the truck to use nitrogen injection to turn and drift when encountering obstacles.

Just like that, a rampaging mechanical truck appeared in the sky in this area, and it was speeding in a certain direction with the momentum of not hitting the south wall and never looking back.

Some floating islands inhabited by griffons, hippogriffs or Pegasus are often startled by this flying vehicle, and then chase it angrily for a certain distance.

I don’t know how much time passed before Carl disconnected from the truck, causing the car to lose its main power again.

"Huh~, how long has it been? I feel like I'm a little dazzled."

Taking out his pocket watch, Hope looked at the time.

"At least 25 hours have passed. Is there no difference between day and night in the air elemental plane?"

Without the obvious changes in light and darkness, everyone became a little slow to the passage of time.

Feeling distressed, they stepped forward to support Karl. Everyone cleared the space in the back row and prepared to make dinner here.

Instructing everyone to call him again when dinner was served, Karl lay down on the overturned chair and gradually fell into sleep.

…

In the third layer of dreams, Karl gradually regained consciousness.

Seeing that he had completely transformed into a body that looked like Optimus Prime, Carl shrugged and prepared to return to the second dream to study the teleportation circle.

But at this moment, Karl noticed something.

"Huh? When did the third level of dreams become so bright?"

Looking up, there was an extra "sun" appearing above the dream world.

It radiated endless light and heat, and Karl even felt that the distorted flesh and blood tissue in the third layer of dreams seemed to have become warmer.

The warm feeling filled his whole body, making Karl a little addicted for a moment.

However, Karl did not notice that as the sun shone, some orange-gold patterns similar to those on the adamantine keys began to spread from his mecha body.

These lines are inconspicuous and leave no traces after each flow.

So when Karl came back to his senses, he didn't find this.

After taking a look at the "thriving" third-level dream, Karl mobilized his psychic energy to float up to the second-level dream.

"Huh? Why hasn't the sun disappeared yet?"

In the second layer of dreams that condensed all of Karl's thoughts and fantasies, the sun with a strong presence still existed.

This couldn't help but make Carl somewhat interested in its existence.

But when Karl tried to go to the location of the sun, he found that no matter how he manipulated the dream itself, he could not close the distance between himself and the other party.

It's like trying to catch up with a figure in a dream, but never being able to do so.

Karl chased the sun like a braggadocio. After an unknown amount of time, he felt someone approaching him in reality.

…

"Karl, it's time to eat!"

In the real world, Hope called Karl and pushed his body gently.

Suddenly, a flash of orange-gold light flowed on Karl's skin.

This stream of light was fleeting and happened to appear in the gap in Karl's clothes. Although Hope spotted it with his peripheral vision, it was difficult to identify it.

Rubbing his eyes, Hope turned over Karl's clothes, but could no longer find the streamer just now.

Just when she was wondering if she had seen it wrong just now, Karl opened his eyes.

"Huh? Have you eaten?"

Standing up from the recliner with a confused look on his face, Karl looked at Hope who seemed to be taking off his clothes, and asked jokingly: "Although there is no night here, so many people will have a bad impact. Let's wait another day."

After that, he stretched and walked towards the dining table.

Hope, who was behind him, rolled his eyes at Karl, assuming that the stream of light he just saw was due to his own eyesight.

"Hey~, why do you feel like you have forgotten something important? You shouldn't..."

Walking to the dining table, Karl reached out and took the bowls and chopsticks handed over by Nia, muttering something in his mouth.

"What’s wrong with you?"

Seeing his appearance, Nia next to her asked curiously.

"Uh~, I seemed to have dreamed about something in my dream just now, but I forgot about it as soon as I woke up."

Hearing this, Nia chuckled lightly and then said:

"Who dreams otherwise? It would be better to say that you have a dream with your physique. Are you under too much pressure recently?"

Just when Hope and Mitrice also chuckled, Elise on the other side of the table suddenly said:

"Did you forget everything in the dream, or just one thing?"

After thinking for a moment, Karl replied: "I probably just forgot something. I remember that I seemed to be chasing something, and I couldn't catch up no matter how hard I chased. This is not normal. Since I awakened from my dream world, I have been in the dream world. Almost everything is possible in dreams!”

Frowning, Elise narrowed her eyes slightly, and then said in a deep voice: "I actually have some abnormalities."
