"We have to build a higher wall."
"We have to build more defenses."
"They will appear again … We have to resist them!"
The prayers continued … the rugby ball's prayers. However, their prayers had changed from useless to useful information.
They kept telling her that this larger town with many creatures living in it … would also be attacked.
However, Lin did not see any reaction from the creatures here. The cocoon seemed to be the calmest creature. Unlike the rugby ball, it did not have any emotional fluctuations.
Although the rugby ball said so, it did not start building walls around the town.
So, Lin observed them while traveling in this world … to the place the rugby ball said, where the souls gathered after death.
Many legends of souls were like this, including those of the Voidfolk. Even the Atlan had their own legends of souls. They all believed that after death, their souls would go to a certain place and wait for a new child. They would then forget all their previous memories and start a new life.
Obviously, things here would not be exactly the same as their legends, but Lin found many similarities.
Now, Lin was mainly concerned about … the scenery on the other side.
Lin had already sent many spiders into the forest. Other than the spiders who were watching the situation in the two cities, there were also three spiders who ran to the place the rugby ball said.
Looking at the map obtained from the town, the spiders had already run to the eastern edge of the forest.
After reaching the edge of the forest, there was a plain. This plain was called …
The spiders placed the stone map on the ground. The craftsmanship of this map was similar to that of the Emerald Dragon. They drew the general appearance of various places on it, and also marked the names of the places.
However. The names of the places were not written in words, but in a small ball embedded on the stone map.
Touching the small ball would make a 'ding ding' sound, but this sound was not a name. When it made the sound, it would cause the surrounding dream energy to 'vibrate'.
This vibration was like a name for the rugby ball. Because each ball vibrated differently, they used this method to name it.
Although it seemed complicated. But for the rugby ball, it was actually very simple. They just happened to find these things that could make them feel strange, and then made them into small balls.
However, it didn't seem to be made by a rugby ball, but another kind of creature.
Their town had a type of creature that excelled at carving and construction, but Lin hadn't studied that creature yet. Her main focus was on the creatures here.
After reaching the plains at the edge of the forest, Lin discovered that there were many creatures here.
Because this world was a combination of reality and dreams, there were different creatures on each side.
On the 'real' side, Lin could see many different types of 'plants' growing all over the land. Most of them were brown or gray and shaped like leaves. There were also some that were shaped like grass with serrated edges.
Compared to the jungle behind them, these things on the plains were more similar to the plants on pompoms.
Apart from 'plants', there were many other things as well. Many tumbleweeds were moving with the wind on the ground, hunting small lizard-like creatures that crawled out of the holes on the ground.
Dong!
At the same time, there were also some huge creatures moving about on the plains.
'Basin Dragon', Lin called the creature by that name.
They were about seven meters tall, and their bodies were like huge basins. They moved slowly on the ground with six legs that looked like rocks.
Their bodies were also made of rocks, and their bodies were covered with small organisms that looked like moss. Their backs were sunken and filled with water, which was the source of their name.
These creatures were quite spectacular. They were like the large long-necked dinosaurs on the dinosaur continent, moving in groups. Every time they moved, the water in the basins on their backs would sway. The water in the basins attracted many flying creatures. They all stayed by the water, and some directly jumped in.
Obviously, the water was closely related to the ecology of these creatures, but it was still unclear what it was used for.
This was just the 'surface' of what the Rock Spider saw. At this time, if another Rock Spider was in the dream, they would see a different scene.
The moment she sensed the Rock Spiders in the dream, the sunny sky was suddenly dyed with a layer of thick gray fog. The small plants on the ground all disappeared, and in their place were some glowing traces like water stains scattered all over the plains.
The creatures moving about on the plains … also became hazy shadows.
There were many small shadows jumping on the ground, and they reminded Lin of Mao Yu.
Their speed was extremely fast, but they were all 'running' instead of floating or flying.
Among these small shadow creatures, Lin could see something huge. This creature … Lin thought it should be called the 'Wings of Dream'.
It looked like a pair of open wings with feathers. Its whole body emitted a bright light as it flew slowly under the hazy sky.
When the 'Wings of Dream' were open, they were 15 meters wide. They flew slowly back and forth under the sky, and it was unknown what this behavior meant.
The 'Basin Dragon' that could be seen in the real world couldn't be seen here. It seemed that they didn't coexist with the dream creatures.
The 'soul gathering place' mentioned by the rugby ball was just ahead. The three Rock Spiders stepped forward and ran in this magical world that overlapped with each other.
The plains were quite vast, and Lin could faintly see a huge mountain in the distance.
According to the description on the map, the mountain should be a volcano, and the creature that gathered the souls was at the center of the volcano.
However, Lin didn't see the terrain here, so the creature might not be related to the Core Protector. Regardless, she had to go take a look.
The three Rock Spiders ran in sync, but one was in the dream while the other two were in the real world.
Although she couldn't command the real world in the dream, Lin could give the Rock Spiders the command to run in advance, so the three could run in sync.
Lin switched back and forth between their perspectives. Being able to observe the completely different creatures around these rock spiders, observing a world that was both hazy and bright at the same time, it was a wondrous experience, it felt like …
"Boom!"
When Lin entered the dream, she suddenly heard a sound. A huge 'Wings of Dream' flew across the sky, but it was different from the other Rock Spiders. It flew very low, and after about ten meters, it crashed into the ground with a boom.
The sound she heard here was almost the same as the sound of a huge creature falling in the real world. The huge Wings of Dream rubbed against the ground for a while before stopping.
It also left a clear mark on the hazy ground of the dream world, as if the hazy light and shadow from before had disappeared.
Lin wanted to know what was going on, so the Rock Spiders stopped moving and ran to the fallen Wings of Dream.
The huge dream creature fell to the ground. It didn't seem to want to struggle, as if it was dead …
However, according to her experience with brain spirits, energy creatures would disappear completely after death, leaving no corpse behind.
"Woo woo woo!" Suddenly, Lin noticed that the small creatures that looked like hairy jade were gathering around.
Lin felt that it was more appropriate to call them 'fog clusters'. They looked like clouds of fog with legs made of fog beneath them. Each of them was only about a meter tall, but there were a lot of them. They surrounded the Dream Wing and stuck their bodies to it.
Lin noticed that the light emitted by the Wings of Dream was slowly disappearing. If the fogs were made of fog, then the Wings of Dream was made of light, just like the brain spirits.
Its light was slowly breaking apart bit by bit, turning into small fragments that gathered on the ball of mist.
It seemed to be eating. Lin remembered that the dream creature that looked like a swordfish had eaten like this. It seemed that they had a way to convert the energy of others into their own.
However, 'light' and 'fog' should be two different types of energy. Although Lin felt that they were both made of dream energy, dream energy was probably divided into many types like other types of energy, so the creatures here were also divided into many types. Apart from light and fog, there was also 'shadow', which looked like black energy. Most of the 'shadows' were symbiotic with real creatures.
In addition to these few energy states, there was another type of dream creature that looked like a physical creature. They looked no different from real creatures except for their strange shapes. They were not made of light or shadow or other ethereal things.
It was a mystery why they had such a classification. Lin felt that coming here was an opportunity to thoroughly study dream energy, and then she might be able to fully understand everything here …
The cause of the Wings of Dream's death was unknown, but it was slowly being eaten by the fogs.
The Rock Spiders turned around and continued on their journey.
They were getting closer and closer to their target …
At the same time, on the other side.
"No passing, no contact."
This was the rugby town. Lin had just noticed that the cocoon-like creature was responding to the rugby players who came to pray for the first time.
It refused to let the rugby players come into contact with the statue, which was unprecedented.
The rugby players seemed to understand and dispersed. They didn't want to get close to the statue, and Lin noticed that they seemed to be preparing to build a wall. She was floating in the sky.
