The Sandman was surprised at Mephisto's sobriety, and at the same time secretly regretted it... In fact, as the masters of dimensions, they rarely have real fools. Even the seemingly reckless and irritable Dormammu is not lacking in wisdom, but the dimension
Their thinking is different from that of ordinary people, and their concepts of failure and time are also different from ordinary people.
Dormammu has invaded Earth countless times, and although he has failed, has he really lost anything?
The answer is no.
No matter how many times he dies, it actually doesn't matter to him. Anyway, his upper limit is there. No matter how much power he accumulates, it's useless. He might as well consume it. There is no loss anyway, but once he succeeds, the benefits will be huge.
.
Sandman can understand Mephisto's thoughts, but unfortunately his interests are not achieved.
The Sandman was imprisoned. Naturally, it couldn't be done by just a human occultist. In fact, it was completely a conspiracy. He was tricked.
The Sandman was born in the dream of the first living being in the universe, and at about the same time, his brothers and sisters were also born.
They are similar to gods, but they are different from the gods that ordinary people understand. They are by-products of the birth of life in the universe, but they are not necessary.
There were five demons born around the same time as Sandman.
They are:
Destiny, whose real name is Portmos, is blind. He wears a brown robe and holds the book of destiny that is handcuffed to him. The book contains everything in the past and the future. Destiny is quiet and indifferent, and he knows everything.
, but will not deliberately interfere with the development of things, because everything has a destiny. The realm of fate is a labyrinth garden with countless forked roads above countless realities. Only fate knows where each road leads.
Death, death is the end of all things. When the first life died, she was born. Death is neither cruel nor merciful, but respects every life. Death may be the most powerful among brothers and sisters. (
It is different from the death of the Five Gods, do not confuse them together)
Desire, whose real name is Ephisnir, is the leader of thousands of creatures' desire and emotion for things, and is also the force that maintains the gathering of all things in the universe. For a being with desire, he is everything. There is no description that can describe it.
The beauty of desire. Desire can be a man or a woman. Anyone who sees him will fall in love with him at first sight. No one can know the thoughts of desire. He lives in a huge humanoid statue, whose real size is immeasurable.
Desire once turned into the incarnation of a dream to help him save creation, but later lost the relevant memory due to the reset of the world.
Despair, Efinoa. When the destiny of thousands of creatures goes astray and they are wandering in despair, she is the leader. The appearance of despair is an ugly and short woman. In her field, there are countless mirrors of all kinds, through which
Through the mirror, you can see people or objects in reality. Despair often likes to scratch her body with a ring with a hook, especially when she is in pain.
Delirium, whose real name is Menia, is the definer of the rules of all things and the leader of madness in all living things. He is also the youngest among the brothers and sisters. Crazy knows things that even fate does not know. No one knows that Crazy's strange eyes can see
What do you realize, her domain has been closed and filled with all kinds of irregular things.
Although they are brothers and sisters, their relationship is actually very different from brothers and sisters in the conventional sense. You can say that they have nothing to do with each other at all, but they do have some special connections, and between them The relationship between them is not very harmonious. For example, Destiny is indifferent to everyone and will always hide in his own area and never see anyone. Even Meng, the Sandman, has forgotten the last time he saw him. .
Not to mention delirium, she would have gone crazy.
Except for the relationship between Death and Sandman, the rest... are basically mortal enemies.
For example, Desire, he has always believed that as long as he devours other people, he will become complete and become the supreme existence.
Although Sandman thinks this is nonsense.
But he can't help but believe in desire, so he has been thinking of ways to deal with other brothers and sisters. The fate... is too mysterious. Desire can't be controlled, and death is too powerful, and desire can't be controlled. Delirium... Needless to say, desire can be controlled by itself. I don’t know what delirium is.
Then all that's left is despair and dreams.
Among them, Despair has the same meaning as she represents, hesitation and despair, so it is very easy to be confused, and it is the best one to deal with. Desire faces such a tool, but on the contrary, he plans to leave her at the end... Despair is a very difficult guy to deal with. She is decadent, passive and hesitant, full of jealousy for everything, but has no courage. After all, how can despair have courage? But desire can give her these things, so despair quite listens to desire.
She became desire's best helper.
Now all that's left is the dream - the Sandman.
So many, many years ago, desperation and desire targeted the Sandman.
Of course, for demons like them, time means nothing. They have plenty of time.
So they were very patient and really let them wait for the opportunity.
Killed with one blow.
They couldn't kill Sandman, but they could imprison him and devour his realm, and then Sandman would be finished.
This is indeed the case.
During the days when Sandman was imprisoned, desire and despair invaded the nightmare dimension, causing this dimension to become extremely damaged and countless nightmares were killed.
The Sandman finally escaped from captivity and returned to his own realm... He almost died of anger, these two bastards Ma Dan were really ruthless.
But Sandman has no good solution.
The broken dimension means that Sandman's power has declined. He needs to find a way to regain his power.
The three most important treasures must be taken back.
They are masks, rubies and sandbags.
Yes, that’s the name, there’s nothing fancy about it. After all, Sandman created these things for his own use, and he doesn’t need to use any fancy words to elevate them.
A bag of sand: This bag of sand is a tool used by the Sandman to make people fall asleep. In Western legends, throwing sleeping sand into children's eyes can make them fall asleep and take them into sleep.
Mask: The mask is a tool used by Sandman to hide his true identity. In stories, Sandman usually appears as an ordinary person, and the mask is the key to hiding his true identity.
Ruby: Ruby has powerful power and can affect the dream world. The holder of the ruby can interfere with reality and dreams through the power of the gem.
Although the introduction is simple, each one is very powerful.
For example, the mask allows the Sandman to hide himself so that no one can see through his identity. It is definitely a top-notch artifact for escape assassinations.
A bag of sand can pull people into a dream. Once in the dream, it is the world of the Sandman.
As for the ruby, there is no need to say anything more.
It can interfere with reality and dreams. It is simply a weakened version of the reality gem!
These three treasures were taken away by humans when they were imprisoned.
If it were before, it wouldn't be a big deal if the Sandman entered the earth.
But now it's no longer possible. His strength has declined and the treasure has been taken away. He can't sneak into the earth at all. So he found Lao Mo, hoping to take a ride and find the treasure.
Sandman is the demon god who has the most affection for the earth among all the demon gods. He does have thoughts about the earth, but he is relatively softer and has no idea of destroying the world. He quite likes the dreams of earthlings.
There is no way except the earth, people in other worlds are really controlled by their destiny, even their dreams. The Sandman doesn't like such prescribed things, and if he can't dream freely, then what else can he dream about?
They even gave dreams many, many other meanings.
For example, dreams can predict the future, predict good and bad luck, and even serve as a platform for communication between gods and humans... But what's weird is that they don't have the original meaning of dreams.
This thing is a bit like the ancient people's understanding of dreams. The mystery of dreams was fully reflected in ancient civilization. The ancient Egyptians believed that dreams were revelations from the gods. They believed that dreams could predict the future and even communicate directly with the gods. "Dreams"
As an important Egyptian document, "The Book" records in detail the symbolic meaning of various dreams. The symbols, scenes and characters in dreams are regarded as the medium through which the gods transmit messages. In ancient Greece, dreams were also given sacred meanings.
.Morpheus, the dream god in Greek mythology, is the god in charge of dreams. He can change into various forms, enter people's dreams, and convey God's will. Ancient Greek literary giants such as Herodotus and Homer
In his works, dreams appear frequently and become an important element of narrative. In his work "On Dreams", Aristotle first tried to explain dreams from the perspective of natural science, believing that dreams are the continuation and reflection of human daily experience.
In Eastern culture, dreams are also endowed with profound philosophical and religious significance. The ancient Chinese "Dream Interpretation by Zhou Gong" is a systematic dream analysis book that records in detail the symbolic meanings and predictions of various dreams. Dreams in Chinese culture are not only
It is a manifestation of personal psychological activities and a manifestation of the harmony between heaven, earth and man. In Taoism and Buddhism, dreams are regarded as an important way to practice and realize Taoism, and the revelations in dreams are considered to be the guidance of gods or Buddha. In India, dreams are also regarded as
Seen as the journey of the soul. Dream analysis in the Hindu classic "Vedas" believes that dreams are experiences of the soul at different levels. Scenes and characters in dreams are regarded as reflections of the soul at different levels, and the revelations in dreams are
It is believed to be guidance from the gods.
These things seem to be too much on earth, but in many civilizations in the universe, the meaning of dreams is more serious and exaggerated than what is mentioned above.
But on today's earth, dreams don't have so many messy meanings. With the development of science, the analysis of dreams has gradually shifted from the realm of mysterious religion and philosophy to scientific discussion. Freud is the founder of modern dream analysis.
He proposed in "The Interpretation of Dreams" that dreams are the expression of the subconscious and the manifestation of desires and conflicts deep in the human heart. Freud believed that the symbols in dreams are the language of the subconscious. Through the analysis of these symbols,
It can reveal the hidden desires and conflicts deep in the human heart. Jung further developed Freud's theory and proposed the concept of collective unconsciousness. He believed that dreams are not only the expression of personal subconsciousness, but also the expression of human collective unconsciousness.
Embodiment. The symbols in dreams not only reflect the individual's inner world, but also reflect the common experience and collective memory of mankind. Jung's dream analysis method emphasizes the symbols and prototypes in dreams. Through the analysis of these symbols and prototypes,
It can reveal the deep structure of human collective unconsciousness. The development of modern neuroscience provides a new perspective for the analysis of dreams. Through technologies such as electroencephalography and functional magnetic resonance imaging, scientists can observe the brain activity when dreams occur.
.Research has found that dreams mainly occur in the rapid eye movement (REM) sleep stage. During this stage, the brain activity is similar to that of waking, but the body is paralyzed and unable to move. Neuroscientists believe that dreams are the brain sorting and processing information.
By-products produced during the process. During sleep, the brain reorganizes and integrates experiences and memories during the day. The random neural activities generated during this process are integrated by the brain into various dreams. The scenes and characters in dreams are the brain's integration of information.
The random combinations generated in the process, and through the analysis of these scenes and characters, can reveal the rules and mechanisms of the brain in the process of integrating information.
The meaning of dreams has both psychological and physiological aspects. From a psychological perspective, dreams are a reflection of human inner world and an expression of the subconscious. Through the analysis of dreams, the deepest desires and conflicts in human beings can be revealed.
and emotions. The symbols and prototypes in dreams not only reflect the individual's inner world, but also reflect the collective unconsciousness of mankind. From a physiological perspective, dreams are a by-product of the brain's process of sorting and processing information. Through the study of dreams
, can reveal the rules and mechanisms of the brain in the process of integrating information. The random neural activities and scene combinations in dreams reflect the complexity and diversity of the brain in the information processing process.
Of course, these things are also boring to Sandman.
Dreams are unrestrained imagination. Everyone’s dreams are colorful and the most interesting things.
At least the dreams of people on Earth are freer than those of other worlds.
So he wants to take the earth into his pocket, but of course it doesn't matter if he fails. He often hangs out on the earth.
In fact, except for the beginning, Karma Taj basically left the Sandman alone. Anyway, this guy did no harm. The biggest harm was to kill a few people... Well, although this guy is free and unrestrained, he can also kill people.
Yes, this guy even fell in love on Earth.
All in all, he is a pretty easy-to-get-together demon.
Of course, compared to himself, he actually doesn't mind the earth being occupied, even if it is occupied by others.
However, this plan seems to have been stuck at the beginning.
