Li Huailin agreed in the end. On their side, apart from Sonia who trusted Midland 100%, even though the others had their doubts, they still had to depend on Li Huailin's attitude. Since Li Huailin didn't question Midland's words, the others didn't raise any questions. Jade Emperor, on the other hand, used the team channel to talk to Li Huailin.
"I think it's a little strange too, but it's fine. We're going to the inner area of Byakee anyway. It's good to have someone to lead the way," Li Huailin said.
He had only summoned the Jade Emperor because he found it strange and wanted to remind him. Since Li Huailin was also paying attention, it was fine. Without further ado, everyone followed Midland's lead. Midland led them to a corner of the city and soon, they arrived beside an enormous black pillar.
Byakee was still crawling toward the ground and its body hadn't fully emerged yet. However, it seemed like it was going to be done soon. There were many more black pillars that appeared after Byakee. As mentioned earlier, these black pillars might be a part of Byakee's body, and there were many of them. The one they saw earlier was the only one above the ground. As Byakee continued to crawl upward, the other pillars gradually emerged from the ground. The one in front of them was just one of them.
"We can reach the inner area of Byakee from here," Midland said as he stopped in front of the black pillar. "Enter from here."
"We've been in there once and got kicked out by Byakee," Li Huailin said.
"Don't worry, Byakee shouldn't know about my situation yet. If I enter now, I don't think it will notice," Midland said immediately. Midland immediately said, "Byakee has just woken up, and he's still trying to break the seal. I don't think he has time to worry about this."
"Is that so?" Li Huailin became even more suspicious. The more he looked at it, the more it seemed like a trap set by Byakee. But the strange thing was, if this was a trap set by Byakee, why did they kick them out the first time? That's right. Weren't they all in Li Huailin's body? If this was also Byakee's scheme to pull them into his body, why didn't he just leave them in his body? Why did he send Midland out to trick him again? Could it be that he wasn't ready because he hadn't woken up yet? Now that he was almost awake, he wanted to do it again? It wasn't that it didn't make sense, but Li Huailin felt that something wasn't right.
"Let's go." Midland waved his hand in the direction of the black pillar. Shortly after, a black hole appeared on the stone pillar. Yes, it was the same kind of black hole as the previous one, but this time, it was slightly bigger.
"Do you want to go in?" the Jade Emperor asked.
"Yes." Li Huailin pondered for a moment. "Let's go in and take a look first."
"I'm not going in." All of a sudden, Waldfumus spoke. "I don't want to go into that kind of place."
"Up to you. Just wait outside." Li Huailin didn't insist. Waldfumus didn't seem to be of much use in going in, so he might as well wait outside.
"Let's go." Midland was the first to enter. Of course, Sonia followed behind him and entered without much thought. Of course, she didn't believe that her big brother would harm her. Li Huailin, the Jade Emperor, and Anran were the last to enter. The illusory figure of the Dreamscape followed them all the way.
It was pitch-black again. The Jade Emperor activated the illumination spell and became the only source of light. Midland was a small black man to begin with, and now that he was here, he was practically invisible. Fortunately, he could see some figures in the light, and he was right in front.
"This way." Midland commanded everyone to move forward. Up until now, they hadn't encountered the eye of Byakee. Of course, Li Huailin and the others didn't know the route inside, so they could only follow Midland's directions.
As they walked, Li Huailin asked the Dreamscape softly, "Do you feel the location of the dream fragments? Are we heading in the right direction? "
"Yes." The Dreamscape nodded. "I feel that we're heading in the direction of the dream fragments. But …"
"What's wrong?" Li Huailin asked.
"I feel that something isn't right. This guy called Midland is giving me a familiar feeling," the Dreamscape said.
"Huh?" Li Huailin was taken aback. "A familiar feeling? What does that mean? Have you seen him before? "
"Of course not," the Dreamscape replied immediately.
"Wait a minute. Didn't you bring a lot of people to the border of the Dream World for the Dream Manager selection? Have you seen this Midland before? "Li Huailin asked.
"Hey, even if I did, I haven't even seen his face," the Dreamscape said, pointing at the black man in front of them. "How am I supposed to compare?"
"You're also seeing little black people. I thought your vision was different from ours." Li Huailin facepalmed. "Hey, you haven't even seen his face, and you think he looks familiar? Are you looking for trouble?"
"I do want to," the Dreamscape said. The Dream Realm said, "But not this time. I really feel like I've seen this person somewhere before. I always have this feeling."
"Are you sure?" Li Huailin asked.
"I … am not sure," the Dreamscape said after some thought.
"I understand." Li Huailin nodded. "But people of your level should have sharp senses. Theoretically, you shouldn't be mistaken. Since you feel that he looks familiar without even seeing his face, then he must be someone you know very well. Do you have any suspects?"
"Hmm?" After Li Huailin's reminder, the Dreamscape began to think. "But I don't know many people …"
"For example, the previous generation's Dreamscape Manager." Li Huailin casually mentioned a few possibilities.
"Your friend is my first Dream Manager. I needed a manager because there was some trouble in the Dream World. Before this, I handled it alone," the Dreamscape replied.
"What about the guardian of the sword?" Li Huailin asked. "Or someone who accidentally entered the Dream World?"
"Hmm …" The Dreamscape nodded slightly and thought about it seriously. "There have been people who accidentally entered the Dream World, but I feel like … something's not right …"
The Dreamscape's description was a little too vague. Most people might think it was an illusion. But Li Huailin didn't think so at all. The Dreamscape's hint was very important because he also felt that something was wrong. When Li Huailin heard the Dreamscape's words, a thought suddenly popped up in his mind. Was this person in front of him Midland?
Of course, the situation of this black figure was very similar to Midland. The figure's appearance was almost identical to the Midland that Li Huailin saw. After all, only the Oracle of Byakee could open the black pillar, and the Oracle of Byakee was, of course, Midland. But the problem was that Li Huailin couldn't see the person's name. Based on this point alone, Li Huailin couldn't be a hundred percent sure.
So the question was, if this guy wasn't Midland, then who was he? First of all, this person must be related to Byakee. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to open the door. Secondly, the person should know Midland, which meant that the person was most likely another Oracle of Byakee.
Li Huailin didn't know how many times the identity of an Oracle could be given. After all, the Oracle was a title given to the people of the Church. To Byakee, anyone who worked for them could be given a pass. There was no rule that stated that only one person could be given a pass. But if that was the case, what kind of attitude did this person have …
Li Huailin thought for a moment. The first thing he needed to figure out was whether this person was Midland or not. As for the other things, he would have to wait until he was sure. However, it wasn't a wise choice to lay his cards on the table now. How could he test the other party without them noticing?
After some thought, Li Huailin looked at the man in front of him and asked, "Midland, have you thought about what I said about the dog yesterday? You should give me an explanation now, right? "
"Huh?" Everyone was taken aback, including Sonia. That's right, even Sonia didn't know what Li Huailin said to Midland yesterday. Li Huailin only gave her a rough idea and of course, he wouldn't say that he made her brother his dog. The reason why Li Huailin asked this question was clear. If the other party was Midland, of course, he would understand that Li Huailin was asking if Midland would join him. After all, Midland had switched sides, so it wouldn't be a problem for him to ask if Midland would join him. But if Midland wasn't Midland, the other party might not know what Li Huailin was talking about.
Li Huailin felt that Midland's visit to Sonia yesterday was definitely a private affair that even Byakee didn't know about. If this man wasn't Midland, he definitely wouldn't know about it either, which was why he chose to ask such a question.
As a matter of fact, the other party really didn't know how to answer. Yes, after hearing Li Huailin's question, the man was obviously taken aback. He pondered for a moment and said, "What are you talking about? Why don't I remember? Let's talk about other things later. Let's deal with Byakee first. "
"Oh, I see." Li Huailin nodded slightly. His heart skipped a beat, but he still followed along and said, "But this matter is also very important. When this is over, I need you to give me an answer."
