To the east of the Rabbit Town surface, at the entrance to the Ethan's Dream instance.
This is said to be the Jingmu tribe's residence, but in fact it is still quite far away from the center of the residence.
Surrounded by several towering crystal mountains, the location of the entrance to the dungeon happens to be in the valley shared by several mountains.
Because of Laplace's warning about "Ethan's Dream", there are not many Jingmu people in the valley today, only a few elders and some soldiers are stationed there.
As soon as Laplace arrived here, he was greeted by an elder of the Jingmu tribe who looked sad.
She still remembered that this elder was called Umeda, and she had met him before when she came here.
It is said that he is the descendant of the previous prophet who was trapped in the copy.
"Ms. Laplace, you are finally here!" When Umeda saw Laplace, her expression was filled with excitement, but even so, the melancholy between her brows was not relieved.
Because... there is only one Laplace.
Before Laplace left, she had said that she would find a way to rescue her, but now that she saw that she came alone, Umeda immediately had a bad feeling.
Laplace saw that Umeda kept looking behind her, and she also understood what Umeda meant, and said calmly: "No need to look, I am the only one here."
Umeda's eyes showed disappointment: "Then...then what should we do now?"
Laplace came alone and naturally found a solution. However, she did not tell the situation immediately, but looked at Umeda with some curiosity... and the group of Jingmu soldiers behind her.
The expressions of both Youmoda and the other Jingmu tribesmen around her were full of worry at this time.
This made Laplace a little confused.
The last time she came to warn, although the Jingmu tribe listened to her advice and immediately took countermeasures, their emotions at that time were very stable.
But now their melancholy is almost as full and thick as the wisps of mist floating in the valley.
Could it be that something happened during this time?
Facing Laplace's inquiry, Umeda pursed her lips, but she did not dare to hide it and simply explained the situation...
Something really happened.
Just an hour ago, someone discovered in reality that a guard named Linta's expression suddenly became ferocious while he was sleeping, and colorless liquid was flowing from his eyes.
This colorless and viscous liquid is the blood of the Crystal Eyes.
It shocked everyone at that time.
Because Linta is one of the few living people who has entered the "Ethan's Dream" instance and has not yet been offline.
The reason why he did not go offline is because he was a guard assigned to protect the previous generation of prophets, and now that his body is abnormal in reality, does it mean that he encountered danger in the dungeon?
But if there is really danger, why doesn't Scale Tower go offline?
Or in other words, the situation is not dangerous enough to require offline?
So, everyone decided to wait and see.
However, in the next few minutes, Linta's expression did not become relaxed as time went by. Instead, it became more and more tense, and colorless blood even began to flow from the corners of his mouth.
Seeing this scene, Umeda knew she couldn't wait any longer.
Scale Tower was directly forcibly awakened. Fortunately, Scale Tower was a living person and could be forcibly awakened through external force.
After being awakened, Linta finally regained some sanity after experiencing a period of loss and collapse.
But even so, Linta's expression was filled with fear, and when everyone asked about his situation, his lips even turned pale at a speed visible to the naked eye.
After questioning, everyone also roughly understood what happened to Linta.
He was originally looking for traces of previous prophets in the mountains and forests, but before he could find them, he encountered a terrifying plant.
According to the fairyland information, the name of this plant is: Sawtooth Piranha.
The main flower has a diameter of five meters, and looks like a huge and twisted blood basin. The edges are covered with sharp, jagged thorns, and appear dark red, as if soaked in blood.
Its underground rhizomes are spread all over a hundred meters in radius, which means that as long as you step within a hundred meters of it, you have entered its hunting ground!
Its hunting method is to spread poisonous pollen that makes people fall into hallucinations, luring prey within a hundred meters of it, and then protruding thorns covered with poisonous thorns from the ground to entangle the prey, and finally swallow it into its body.
When Linta was in the mountains and forests, he encountered the saw-toothed piranha.
It first spread through pollen, allowing Linta Huan to hear the call of the previous generation of prophets, and then entered the hunting range of the piranha, and was eventually eaten by it...
But being eaten to death is just the beginning.
The scale tower just died, and suddenly resurrected again the next second, and the location of the resurrection was near the piranha.
Before he could even think of escaping, he was poisoned again, fell into a trance, and was preyed on by piranha flowers again.
again and again……
Every time it is swallowed, severe pain goes from the body to the soul, as if the spirit body is crumbling and about to break.
The endless cycle of death pain pushed Scale Tower to a desperate situation.
And Scale Tower couldn't go offline yet, because the poison of the piranha's thorns could directly make his consciousness fall into a trance. The moment he thought of going offline, he would be swallowed up by the tide of darkness.
This is also the reason why Scale Tower entered a death cycle but did not go offline.
It's not that he doesn't want to do it, it's that he can't do it at all, and his consciousness doesn't have a clear moment at all.
Fortunately, Linta was still alive in reality, and someone discovered the abnormality and forcibly awakened him. Otherwise, he might really have been in the territory of the saw-toothed piranha, dying in an infinite cycle... until he suffered a mental breakdown.
Even though Linta has been rescued, his experience has left other Jingmu tribesmen with palpitations.
They didn't pay much attention to Laplace's warning before. After all, the reason given by Laplace was somewhat unconvincing: someone discovered that this copy was extremely dangerous through danger sensing.
And this person with a sense of danger is a little Cuphead.
It would be fine if someone from the Dream Mirror Organization warned him, but the Jingmu tribe didn't really believe Cuphead's warning.
But through the situation at Scale Tower, they finally understood that Cuphead’s sense of danger was real!
The Jingmu tribe who were originally calm began to panic. They didn't care about the others, but the previous generation of prophets was still trapped in the Dream of Ethan!
Thus, there was this scene that Laplace saw when he first arrived.
All the Jingmu tribesmen in the entire valley fell into a cloud of sorrow.
Because of Laplace's warning, no one dared to enter the dungeon; but without entering the dungeon, there was no way to rescue the previous prophet...
While waiting anxiously, Laplace finally arrived, but when she saw that she was alone, Umeda's heart dropped.
Because when she thought about it, Laplace's so-called "rescue" was to find strong people to form a team and play a dungeon.
??????55.??????
But now...
"……what to do?"
Laplace looked at Umeda's anxious look and understood what she was thinking at this time.
She didn't show off, and said according to the words she had discussed with Angel before: "I have found a method, but this method requires the consumption of precious props in the Dream Mirror Warehouse."
"So, if you are sure that you need us to rescue you, then all the fairyland props your people will get when they leave the copy of Ethan's Dream will belong to us to make up for the consumption."
"If the props we get by then are mediocre and cannot make up for our consumption, then we will need to formulate a further contract."
"After all, we can't waste our cherished props in vain."
With Angel's ability, of course he can easily and directly guide people trapped in the dungeon to find Ethan.
However, Angel does not intend to rescue for free.
In the early days of pioneering, he could protect various races, but he didn't want to be a "nanny" who put out fires wherever there was fire.
Even if he doesn't need those fairyland props, he still needs to let them understand that there is no free lunch in the world and rescue is never given unconditionally.
Of course, this is only one of the reasons.
There is also the most important reason, which is that if he wants to guide everyone to find Ethan, he must use God's perspective to communicate with the challenger who is trapped in the dungeon.
In order to rationalize this ability, Angel could only use the excuse of consuming "treasured props".
The world has its own rules. After "I" consume the cherished props, I can't ask for anything. That's why Laplace's rhetoric comes into being.
On the other side, Umeda didn't feel anything wrong after listening to Laplace's story.
She also knew that the other party would not rescue her for free.
If the rescue was really free, she might become wary. After all, she is not a fool, free is the most expensive, and she understands this prop.
"Of course, no problem!" Umouda nodded without hesitation: "Everything is up to you!"
Seeing Umeda's impatient look, Laplace took a deep look at her: "Since you agree, that's fine. Because before I came over, we had already consumed a precious exploration tool.
I already have a preliminary understanding of this copy of Forest Dream."
Youmoda nodded in understanding: "The consumption of this exploration item is also included in this rescue operation!"
Laplace looked satisfied: "Okay, then I will tell you about the situation in detail."
"After our investigation, we found that this copy is actually a dream that Ethan had. Precisely because it is a dream, people who die in it will be resurrected immediately..."
"You should have a general understanding of the background of this copy. It is related to war. But what you don't know is that the opponents in this war are countless monsters... The saw-tooth piranha encountered by Scale Tower is also one of the monsters.
one."
"In addition, this copy also has a very important background information, which is: In this war, everyone in Ethan's camp died except for Ethan himself."
"That's why, if you want to survive, there is only one way, and that is to find Ethan..."
Next, Laplace told everything Angel had said before.
It was also the first time for Youmoda to understand this background information. She now also understood that Laplace was not tricking them. Being able to understand the background information of the dungeon in such detail, and even infer the conditions for clearing the dungeon through this information, they consumed
That exploration prop is definitely not simple!
"The rescue method is actually very simple. We have a special one-time prop that can retrieve and locate Ethan's location. Then, through a rare sound transmission prop I obtained, Ethan's location is transmitted to the people in the copy.
Let them find Ethan quickly."
"At that time, as long as they make peace with Ethan, they will basically have cleared the level."
"However, this kind of pass, the exploration degree is not expected to be too high, but at least you can survive..."
After hearing this, Umouda nodded in agreement.
If it is true that Laplace said that he can join up with Ethan, then there should be no problem with this copy. After all, Ethan is the only one who survived, so he must have a way to leave alive.
It's just that Youmoda is a little worried. Even if the message is transmitted to the people in the copy, what should they do if they encounter danger on their way to find Ethan?
Laplace said lightly: "There is no absolutely worry-free solution. This is the limit of what we can do. If you don't even dare to take this risk, then what kind of explorer are you?"
Umeda nodded silently.
Too.
Since you dare to enter the Wonderland dungeon as an explorer, you must take certain risks. If you don't take any risks and just want to pass the level, how is this possible?
Laplace: "If you have already decided, I will consume the props now to explore Ethan's location."
Umeda did not hesitate and nodded: "Okay."
Laplace said nothing more. Under everyone's gaze, she slowly walked near the crystal creation of "Ethan's Dream".
At this time, in the field of vision of others, Laplace was the only one in front of the crystal creation in the distance.
But the real situation is that Angel is also near the crystal creation, but through the illusion of invisibility, no one else can see him except Laplace.
Angel: "Did you bring it?"
Laplace nodded: "Of course."
After speaking, Laplace waved her hand gently, and a small golden TV flew out from her robe.
There is no doubt that this little golden TV is Turing.
Angel can be directly transferred to the entrance to the copy of Ethan's Dream by going offline and going online again, but Turing cannot do that and there is no way for him to go offline.
Therefore, if Turing wants to get here, he either has to fly here, or he has to follow Laplace and leave the Word Manor and come from Rabbit Town. - Because Laplace entered the Word Manor from Rabbit Town.
After Turing flew out, he immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Umeda: Is this small golden square the prop that Laplace mentioned to locate Ethan?
While Umeda was guessing, Laplace came over and said, "This is my assistant Turing. I have given him special props. As for the reason, you will know later."
After finishing speaking, Laplace looked at Turing: "Use positioning props."
Turing nodded cooperatively, his whole body began to glow slightly, and the small TV screen began to flicker continuously.
Although the screen flickered very quickly, Youmoda captured it. A large number of pictures appeared on the screen. These pictures were a bit like an overlooking mountain forest map...
And the copy of "Ethan's Dream" is located in a mountain forest!
