Chapter 402 Escape Plan "Can you send people to the ocean of collective subconsciousness?" Anti asked chewed some candy: "Okay, but in my current state, I don't recommend it." "Is it because of your condition?" Xiuman nodded. "I can open a passage there now, but I can't protect people from getting lost for a long time. You experienced it when I rescued you and that stupid dragon. The will of a single person cannot directly compete with the will of the group." "That's it." Xiuman asked, "Why do you suddenly want to go there? There's nothing there." "The Pillar of the Beast suddenly jumped out from the sea of subconsciousness, and I have some gossip that the Pillar of the Beast was originally together with the Pillar of Reason." Anti replied. Since the Pillar of Beasts came out of the ocean of subconsciousness, the Pillar of Reason is probably also there. As long as Anti can touch the Pillar of Reason, he can become the God of the Pillar of Reason. This is a reward from Brother Faseros. If he can get it, not only will the current predicament be solved directly, but it will probably also make things a lot easier. "It's the same as not saying anything." But Xiuman poured cold water on it. "what?"
"The subconscious ocean is an abstract concept. Even if I have visualized it, it is still between illusion and reality. Therefore, its true size is completely impossible to observe. In a sense, the concept of size does not exist at all. Moreover, its composition is extremely fragmented, mixed with the thoughts of countless intelligent beings. Those thoughts are like drops of water in the ocean. Finding a pillar in it based on this kind of information is more difficult than finding a needle in a haystack in reality." Shuman explained the reason. Anti thought for a moment: "The gap between illusion and reality is like the gap between dreams." "This is really a rare term." Xiuman glanced at Anti. An Ti took out the sleeping bird bell. Xiuman's eyes widened: "...You even have this thing?" "What's wrong with this thing?" "I haven't seen the token of the eternal sleeping bird for a long time. I didn't expect it..." Xiuman couldn't help but ponder. "Do you know the bird of eternal sleep?" "You hold this bell, which means you must have come into contact with the bird of eternal sleep, right? Don't you know what it is?" asked Xiuman. Anti shook his head slightly: "It has never told me its life story in detail, but it looks like it has a lot of stories." Xiuman said: "I have never actually seen the Eternal Sleeping Bird. I only discovered its existence when I was collecting information and conducting research in order to explore the depths of my own spirit." "What we know now is that this is a very ancient being." "How old?" "Older than the Pillar Gods." "Before the Pillar God era?" "It is even said that it existed at the beginning of the birth of the mixed dream world. It is speculated that it is an innate creature, but in my opinion, it may be higher than ordinary innate creatures. The collective subconscious sea is indeed manifested by the dream gap as a blueprint. It is true that the dream gap is of great significance. The eternal sleep bird is accompanied by the dream gap, which must be unusual." Listening to Xiuman's words, Anti looked at the sleeping bird bell in his hand. As expected, although Miss Iris looks very young, she may even be the largest person in the world. Stunning.
"Keep it well. There were many people who wanted this thing in the past. It was once obtained by a Pillar God in the Pillar God Era. It was through this that the Pillar God gained power from dreams and was able to make it into a pillar. The earliest legend about the Bird of Eternal Sleep has even more exaggerated descriptions. Although not many people know about it now, since it has fallen into your hands, I can only say that it was fate." Xuman warned. "The earliest exaggerated legend?" Anti put away the bell and asked curiously. "Whoever sleeps soundly with the bird of eternal sleep will become the final lord of dreams." Xiuman said softly. Well, it turns out that legends sound so confusing. "What is this Lord of Dreams?" Anti asked very honestly. Xiuman sighed: "You really don't have any romantic feelings. Think about it, if you treat the mixed dream world as a big dream..." Anti thought for a moment: "First God?" "Tsk, it seems to be true." Xiuman couldn't help but smack his lips. "It can't be true. If the Pillar God era was a chicken-eating contest for the ceremony of the rebirth of the first god, then why didn't the Pillar God who held the Sleeping Bird Bell win and eat the chicken directly?" Anti pointed out the unreasonable part of this legend. Xiuman shrugged. "I don't know about that, but in any case, this bell can definitely bring some kind of power, at least the power of the Pillar God. You must build a good relationship with the Eternal Sleeping Bird. This is a great help." Build a good relationship... Anti recalled. Well, they must have a good relationship if they are being sarcastic to each other...right? That pretty much stops the small talk. The rest of the exploration team came to find Xiuman and Anti. It happened that Tan Haishen came to call for help, but when he walked over and saw the two "snowmen" with only their faces and a little bit of their bodies showing, he almost couldn't hold back. …… "Is it fun to play snowman?" Tan Haishen asked as he watched the two clean the snow off their bodies while walking. "It's quite interesting and can calm your mind." Anti said seriously. "This is called the experiential learning method, which helps to deepen the understanding of related miracles." Xiuman patted Tan Haishen on the shoulder. "Mr. Kaman, you don't know any ice miracles, do you?" Tan Haishen asked honestly. "Ahem, you can learn even if you don't know how." The other members of the exploration team looked at the two men and looked at each other in confusion. They just wanted to play snowman. They are obviously the two strongest members of the team, but most of the time they behave like children and are always naughty, which makes the other members of the team ashamed. If they hadn't been taken care of by Xiuman, they would probably have no sense of security at all now. However, seeing how relaxed the two of them looked, the originally depressing atmosphere in the trench was slightly improved. Handilon suddenly poked his head out: "Woo!" It said it wanted to play in the snow, too.
Anti held its head and made it lie down: "Long Ruobing, take a rest." The trench is so small that it would be a bit crowded if Handilon was squeezed in. Let's still have fun, don't attract the Undead War Soul over here. Handilon:? Why am I weak to ice? However, when Anti asked it to lie down, it remained well behaved. It can also be used as a table for everyone. However, most people are still a little afraid of this strange dragon, so it can only serve as Anti's sofa. When Xiuman tried to rub against it, it pushed him away with its tail. Everyone gathered around the map model placed on the stone and began to discuss what to do next. "Under this situation, there is no room for consideration for the originally planned itinerary on the mountain. It is difficult for us to retreat now." One person sighed as he looked at the situation in front of him. "Although we had a rough time along the way, we actually did gain a lot of bits and pieces, but they are difficult to sort out. And there are many things worth exploring in this trench alone," said a member nonchalantly. That is true. Although they were largely forced to do so and had not systematically researched anything, picking and choosing in a hurry along the way, they had penetrated so deep into the restricted area that if they could return alive, what they had seen and heard would be enough to satisfy their mission. It was just that they could not bring out any tangible benefits. The interior of the underground trench they were deep in was also very complicated. A simple exploration revealed that there were even passages going deep into the mountain, which were interconnected and contained a lot of information about the Undead Army's combat operations that could be discovered. It's nice to be able to explore here. "Then the next mission will be to focus on safe evacuation." Seeing this, Xiuman set the tone. Anti raised his eyelids, and Xiuman stretched out his hand to press him down, and Anti didn't speak directly. It is indeed not easy to drag these people on. The strength does not allow it. If we continue to go up, it will be entirely Anti and Xiuman dragging the team. There is no point. "We can use guerrilla warfare in the mountainous terrain to get rid of the Undead War Souls. It's a small problem. The key is still the archers on Peak Ossena and the bone dragon. Even if we can barely keep moving forward with the interference of these two, after our movement is slowed down, the Undead War Souls around us will turn from small problems into big problems. Once we are surrounded, we will be torn to pieces." A representative member of the Zhuyang Empire analyzed. "How about counterattacking the bone dragon and the archers?" "It's unrealistic to kill the bone dragon. It's on Tiantu Peak. If we can get close to the bone dragon, we might as well climb the mountain." One person pointed out. "Hey, there is a chance to deal with that archer, provided that we won't be discovered by other undead war spirits on the way to the archer. At least according to my calculations, if the bone dragon doesn't come down from Tiantu Peak, its farthest attack range won't be able to reach Ossena Peak, which is a favorable factor." The speaker was Vasinlailai, a black representative from Blue Star. He was a bit talkative, but his ability in this area was unquestionable. He presented the model with reasoning, and the results shown by the instruments in the sanctuary were very convincing. “But we can’t be sure that there are no other powerful Undead Souls on Mount Ossena. If the assassination is delayed, the Undead Souls will react very quickly and it will be difficult to escape. Moreover, because our trenches are close to Mount Ossena, if the Undead Souls are alarmed, their hiding place may be discovered.” said Tina, another Blue Star representative. This time she was not trying to challenge Wasinlailai, the views she put forward were very reasonable and comprehensive. As mentioned before, although they usually have some conflicts due to various factors, they will never be vague on important matters, and they even cooperate very well. This is the world of real adults. "Go underground?" said a member. He connected his instrument to the map model and focused on the underground of the trench where they were. The model showed a complex underground network. The member reached out and adjusted it, marking out several paths that could lead out of the dynasty ruins. "I used the equipment provided by the sanctuary and my specialization in miracles to indirectly build models of some passages inside the mountain. Going underground might be a good option. Although there are also undead war spirits underground, they cannot form a formation and are far less threatening than on the surface. We also don't have to suffer from snipers and dragons."
The people in front of me were discussing with each other. Since it’s about escape, everyone is very serious. And Anti thought that in addition to the hard power, the "professional capabilities" of this team in all aspects were indeed worthy of the identity of exploration team members. At this time, everyone showed their talents and came up with many solutions worth trying. Finally, the team voted and the majority chose to escape underground. The idea is attractive simply because it allows us to bypass the archer. (End of this chapter)
