"Main Mission 5 is about to end."
"The "Dream" state of Gulemo and Uriel will enter a countdown."
"The remaining time in the "dream" state: 3 minutes"
"Countdown: 02:59"
"Countdown: 02:58"
…
When he saw this fairyland prompt, Luigi didn't understand what was going on at first.
It’s not the wonderland information that should pop up to indicate the completion of the main mission, but why is it the countdown to the “dream” state?
It wasn't until half a minute later that Luigi saw a new prompt that he understood what was going on.
"Note that before the "dream" state ends, you are free to ask questions. Whether you answer or not depends on your question and the other person's thoughts."
"So... the power of the fairyland reminded me because I haven't done anything yet?"
Luigi felt like he had come to the truth.
But then again, since you planned for me to ask questions to the NPC in the "dream" state, you wrote it in the fairyland prompt from the beginning.
It's too unprofessional for me to guess by myself.
As a result, I wasted half a minute.
Although Luigi was complaining in his heart, his external reaction was not slow. The moment he saw the new wonderland prompt, he walked quickly to Gulemo and asked:
"Can I ask you a question?"
Gulemo was stunned for a moment and nodded: "You are the new Star of Green, so I will naturally know all your questions. Do you want to ask about the obligations and benefits of Star of Green?"
Luigi shook his head without hesitation: "No, I just want to know one question now. Can you tell me, what exactly is the 'Dream Stage'?"
Luigi and Angel had chatted before.
At that time, Ingres took "The Lonely Godot" as an example and said that the "dream stage" was most likely not a real stage, but a spiritual symbol.
Although Luigi is very opposed to this false and empty behavior, he has to say that some Riddlers really love this metaphor of "spiritual symbol".
If the "Dream Stage" really doesn't exist and is just a spiritual symbol, Luigi will feel that all his previous efforts have been in vain.
Just like a chef who pursues "the endless sea of ​​ingredients" and sails on the sea for decades, finally discovering that this place is actually a metaphor and does not exist. Then he will probably go crazy on the spot.
Of course, the Riddler will say sincerely: "The process of pursuing your dreams is a kind of experience that enriches yourself. Look, after decades of training, haven't you now become an unparalleled chef in the world?"
Maybe some people will eat this chicken soup for the soul.
But Luigi didn't like it.
He does not want the "dream stage" to be a false and empty spiritual symbol. He hopes that such a stage really exists so that he can climb on it, release his enthusiasm, and perform his inner love.
Therefore, the first question he asked was about the "stage of dreams".
Gulemo was stunned for two seconds: "The stage of dreams? Do you mean the stage of the Royal Music Ensemble, or the stages of various countries..."
Luigi: "I don't know what the 'Dream Stage' is, that's what Uriel told me. He said that Chief Charlotte was qualified to go to that stage, but Chief Charlotte didn't seem to want to go...
…”
Luigi quickly explained the information he had learned about the "Dream Stage".
When Gulemo heard this, he seemed to understand something, and he muttered: "You are talking about that stage..."
"That stage? Which stage?"
Gulemo shook his head: "I actually don't know what the specific stage is. Its existence was told to us by a great being."
"According to this great being, the scale of that stage far exceeds the stages of all countries. It is not just a competition among countries, but a competition among the heavens."
"Artists from countless worlds and boundless planes will gather on this stage to start a life-and-death competition in which failure or failure will lead to success."
Gulemo's description made Luigi feel a little relieved. According to him, the so-called "dream stage" is indeed not a spiritual symbol, but a real stage.
As long as he knew that such a stage existed, Luigi felt that his previous efforts were not in vain.
But having said that: "Why is it a competition of life and death? Who is the great being? Also, where is this stage in the heavens? What are its rules?"
Luigi's series of questions made Gulemo a little confused.
He already felt that his thinking was delayed, and now he was even more confused. Balls of yarn appeared in front of his eyes unconsciously... and he fainted.
Gulemo: "You ask one by one."
Luigi also saw something unusual about Gulemo. As an experienced player of the Uriel dungeon, he knew very well that this was a side effect of the "dream" state.
The same was true for Uriel who he asked about the "dream" state before. After ten sentences, Uriel could only capture half of them, which made him extremely nervous.
Later, during the star climbing challenge, Luigi found that Gulemo's response was quite smooth, thinking that the "dream" state had less impact on him. Now it seems that the influence of "dream" still exists, but Gulemo
Just a little better than Uriel.
Thinking of this, Luigi could only hold back his temper and ask questions one by one.
"Why is it said that the 'stage of dreams' is a life and death competition?"
Gulemo thought for two seconds and said: "The great being once said that the stage of the heavens has its operating rules. The winner wins everything, and the losers are all bones."
In other words, the stage of the heavens will only allow the winner to survive, while the loser will only die.
This is why he is called the "Game of Life and Death".
"It is precisely because of this rule that Chief Charlotte gave up participating in this stage of the heavens." Gulemo sighed: "But I know that Chief Charlotte did not give up because of fear of death, but was persuaded to do so.
.”
"The Imperial Music Group cannot live without her, and she cannot live without the Imperial Music Group."
Luigi did not comment on Gulemo's sentiments. He even felt vaguely that it was a waste: he originally thought that Gulemo would expand on useful topics, but in the end it was just trivial things. Talking about these things is simply a waste of time.
You know, there is only 1 minute left in Gulemo's "dream" state.
And Luigi still has three questions left to ask.
If he continues to ask step by step, he will definitely not be able to finish all the questions. He must re-order the questions and ask the questions he thinks are important first!
Thinking of this, Luigi quickly said: "The second question is, where is this 'dream stage'?"
Gulemo shook his head and frowned: "I'm not sure about this. Anyway, it's not in the Dasman Empire, nor in the world we live in. It seems to be in another world..."
Is the dream stage not in Xilu?
Luigi didn't feel too surprised. Since Gulemo called the "stage of dreams" the "stage of the heavens", it must involve a large number of pan-planes.
Although the Western Continent is a powerful world, the threshold is also very high. Artists from other worlds are not necessarily qualified to enter the Western Continent.
In particular, many artists are still ordinary people. When they go to a powerful world, they will most likely be affected by the will of the world, resulting in a state of rejection of "acclimatization".
Once this situation occurs, ordinary people are almost certain to die.
Therefore, the best choice is definitely an open world where ordinary people can enter and be less affected.
"The third question is, who is the great being you are talking about?"
Gulemo shook his head again: "I have to ask Chief Charlotte about this. It was the chief who connected with that great being. We don't know what his identity is. However, since Chief Charlotte called the other party a great being, there is a high probability that
He is an extraordinary person..."
Although Gulemo has not personally come into contact with extraordinary beings, he has heard a lot of rumors about extraordinary beings.
He even heard that the royal family of the empire raised extraordinary people, and that the church also had the backing of extraordinary people.
Therefore, he is actually no stranger to "extraordinary beings".
Luigi: "Fourth question, did Chief Charlotte tell you how to get to the 'Dream Stage'?"
Gulemo: "I didn't say, but there is a high probability that it is that great existence..."
Gulemo suddenly stopped mid-sentence.
Luigi raised his head in confusion and found that Gulemo's eyes suddenly changed. They were not as turbid and deep as before, but became calmer.
This kind of calmness is almost exactly the same as that of Mulloy next to him.
Luigi is no stranger to this kind of look. He has witnessed Uriel's "dream" state and normal state switching countless times.
To be continued...
