Deep Sea Embers - Chapter 532

[Chapter 530 Wake Up]

in the middle of the glade, the mental entity of Taran El, who had previously been in a state of stagnation due to “protective sinking”, suddenly blinked—it seemed to disappear with the erosion of the creeping sun disc , His self-awareness finally returned to this layer of shallow dreams.

Duncan and Lucrezia noticed this immediately, and walked towards the elf scholar at the same time. The latter woke up after just two or three seconds, and looked at the scene in front of him in astonishment.

Everything was different from what he remembered—the forest illuminated by the sun fell into a weird dusk at some point, the sky was mixed with blurry shadows, and many new figures appeared in the field of vision, none of which he could see. Get to know each other (including Morris, whom I haven’t seen for decades).

After looking around blankly like this, Taran Al finally got excited, and hesitantly broke the silence: “Why is my situation so serious?”

Lucrecia who had just walked over was stunned when she heard the words: “What are you talking about?”

Taran Al pointed to himself, then pointed to Heidi, Vanna and Morris, who had already noticed the movement not far away and were walking towards here, with incredible expressions on their faces: ” It only took a while, how come there are so many consultations?”

Lucrezia’s expression trembled for a moment, and she almost didn’t tense up.

Taran Al continued to say: “If you really can’t wake me up, let me try my own method. The ‘sudden death method’ is actually very effective…” Lucrezia heard

, Immediately he interrupted the university student: “Don’t worry about your ‘sudden death method’, do you know what happened just now?” “Just now?”

Taran Ayer looked blank, “What happened just now? I I was just stunned…”

“The minions of the black sun have invaded your dreams, and even brought a projection of a sun child,” Lucrecia said with a serious face, while observing the changes in Taran Ayer’s expression , “You didn’t perceive it at all? If my father hadn’t appeared in time, the mental entity you stayed here might have been destroyed by the aftermath of the battle.”

Taran Al’s expression became serious when he heard the first half of Lucrezia’s words, but he was startled suddenly when he heard the last sentence of the other party, and then gradually came to his senses, hesitantly and horrified while slowly moving towards Duncan turned his head and said, “Your… father?”

Lucrezia nodded silently, while Duncan tried his best to show a kind smile, and stretched out his hand to this respected university student: “You can directly Call me Captain Duncan.”

Taran Ayre didn’t reach out his hand to respond, he seemed to be stiff all over, he only stared at the tall figure in front of him with wide eyes, then suddenly took a deep breath, his whole body seemed to be shaking violently After a moment, the figure disappeared into the forest.

Duncan looked at this scene with a dazed face, turned his head and asked, “What’s going on?”

Lucrezia’s face was not much astonished. After hearing Duncan’s words, she was stunned for two or three seconds before finally realizing what happened. What, he said with a strange look: “…’Sudden death method’ works.”

Duncan: “…?”

Heidi, Vanna, and Morris just came over at this time. They wanted to talk to the awakened Taran Master Al said hello, but only saw the scene where the latter disappeared out of thin air, and heard Lucrecia’s last muttering, and his expressions were different.

Heidi’s face was full of exclamation that “this is really possible”, Morris’s eyes showed a little regret, and only Fan Na’s expression was blank – she is a sports student, and she doesn’t know much about the operations of these psychologists .

When encountering nightmares, she cut through them and ran out.

“I wanted to say hello to Master Taran Ayer,” Morris said regretfully, “We haven’t seen each other for many years.” “He wouldn’t recognize you when he saw you,” Heidi

shook Shaking his head, “He remembers you as a young man studying abroad, and he can’t even imagine that you have a daughter now.”

Morris thought for a while and sighed softly, “It’s like dealing with elves.

” Is the situation clear?” Duncan looked at the atmosphere among the three before him, and asked curiously.

“To make it clear,” Fan Na nodded, and then spread her hands helplessly, “I’ve been scolded for a long time.”

Heidi didn’t say anything, but couldn’t help but carefully looked at the “famous” captain in front of her, her gaze Sweeping back and forth among the few people at the scene, I don’t know how many thoughts went crazy in these few seconds.

Lucrezia did not pay attention to the situation here. She had been carefully observing the changes in this “forest” since just now, and at this moment she suddenly broke the silence: “As I guessed, Taran Ai Er wakes up, but this ‘dream’ itself still exists… There are other ‘dreamers’ who are maintaining this place.”

Hearing her words, Duncan just nodded slightly.

Because it is temporarily impossible to determine what the “dreamer” behind this dream is, and this dream seems to be connected to many ordinary people, so he did not “set fire” here, but since just now, he has been carefully perceiving this place.

This seemingly incomparably real forest is essentially a dream, and what is connected behind it should be the subconscious of the dreamer, and he intervenes here by “walking in the spirit world”, theoretically, he can touch and even perceive this ” Subconscious”, just like the emotions and rough thinking fragments he felt when he touched those “starlights” during his walk in the spirit world.

Here, however, no matter how much he stretched his perception, no matter how carefully he “listened”, he could only feel a huge… emptiness.

There is nothing, no fear, no thoughts, the forest is still outside the forest, the earth is still the earth deep in the earth, the personality part of the dreamer is completely gone, it is not so much a “barrier” created by the subconscious to protect the deep dream, The feeling of this forest to Duncan… is more like a chaotic fog.

The barrier is purposeful, but the mist, it is just chaotic and spontaneously condensed here, without purpose or consciousness, it only operates according to some ancient rules.

Duncan was thinking about what was behind this empty and huge dream, but at this moment, a disorderly wind suddenly blew from the depths of the forest, and the cold that came with it interrupted his thinking.

“…This forest doesn’t welcome us anymore,” Heidi frowned suddenly, but her tone was a bit puzzled, “But why didn’t you respond before?” “Maybe it’s

because Taran El woke up,” Luke said. Thea said thoughtfully, “His awakening did not lead to the disintegration of the dream, but it closed an ‘entrance’, and we, the uninvited guests who came in, would naturally be repelled.” “It seems that it is time to

leave It’s gone.” Duncan sighed regretfully, he instinctively felt that there were still many secrets hidden in this dream, but he also knew that if he wanted to stay here forcibly when the dream had already begun to produce rejection reactions, the consequences would be The harm is probably not much less than the “deformed sun” in the sky before.

“Alright, I have to return to the real world as soon as possible to confirm the current situation of Taran Ayer,” Lucrecia said, she seemed a little relieved, “Don’t really die on my boat.” “

Hmm Let’s go,” Duncan nodded to her, “We’ll talk about more things when we meet in the real world—I’ll find you soon.”

Lucrezia’s expression seemed tense instantly It took a while, but he quickly recovered and showed a smile: “Okay, but don’t worry, it doesn’t matter if you slow down. It’s a long journey from the Lenglie Sea to the South Sea. Be careful…” “

I It means that I will look for you soon—probably this afternoon,” Duncan waved his hand, “The Lost Home is already near Lightwind Harbor.” The smile on

Lucrezia’s face froze instantly Come down: “… huh?”

Duncan said calmly, “Perhaps it was some kind of influence after the sun went out. The Lost Country has crossed a long distance in an instant, and now I have arrived.”

Lucrezia was stunned, and then The figure “flickered” twice in an instant, and then disappeared in front of everyone out of thin air.

Leaving Duncan, Heidi and others staring at each other.

This awkward silence lasted for a while, and finally Fan Na spoke first: “Did she wake up from fright?”

No one answered her.

“It’s time to leave,” Duncan shook his head, alleviating the sudden embarrassment, “If you have anything else to say, please contact me later.”

This short reunion was time to say goodbye, and Heidi couldn’t help but feel Feeling disappointed, she looked at her father and friends standing beside Captain Duncan with mixed emotions, and suddenly thought of something: “Wait, how can I contact you?! You are on the Lost Home…” “Just write a

letter ” Morris said with a smile, “you can send it directly to the antique shop in the downtown area, and the captain will deliver it in person.” ” Ah?   Just

write a letter?”

Fan Na said: “If it’s just a simple message, you can also go to the cathedral. Bishop Valentine can help deliver the message.”

Heidi continued to be confused: “You mean the cathedral!?”

“Or you can wait for the holiday on the ship “Duncan then added, “It’s been very busy during this period, but there should be holidays after that, and I can send them back to Plant.” “Is there

even a holiday on the Lost Home?!”

However, Heidi’s questions No response was received.

The wind blowing from the forest has gradually brought obvious coldness and hostility, and the rejection of the dream is gradually reaching its peak. In her eyes, the figures of Captain Duncan, her father, and Fanna are gradually becoming blurred.

Finally, even her own consciousness became hazy, and she sank into darkness amid a sudden sense of weightlessness.

In the next second, the darkness faded, and she woke up from the dream.

Heidi opened her eyes and saw that she was lying on a bed in a ward of a medical facility, and her original “patient” had gone somewhere.

It seems that after I fell into a dream, someone noticed the abnormality and sent me here.

The psychiatrist took a deep breath.

This long and tortuous dream finally came to an end.
