When Josiah's consciousness sank into the World Tree again, he did not enter the space where he could 'establish a server.' Instead, he returned to the Venerated Skeleton's castle again.
"Could it be that the High Elves' holy tree has a teleportation portal connecting to the Demon Realm?"
Josiah looked around the surrounding corridor and came to the window to look at the forest outside. He quickly rejected the idea that this was the Demon Realm.
This was indeed a castle. The interior decoration was also very similar to the Venerated Skeleton's castle. The forest scenery was completely different.
The Venerated Skeleton's Haze Forest was a veritable forest of the undead. Even during the day, will-o '-the-wisps could be seen everywhere.
But the forest outside just looked very quiet against the night. There was no gloomy feeling at all. More importantly … Josiah saw that a part of the forest was broken.
This piece of land seemed to be suspended in an empty space.
"This music."
Josiah heard music from the other side of the corridor. After carefully recalling it, he found that it was the music used when Belle danced with the Demon Prince in "Beauty and the Demon."
"Is this the castle in" Beauty and the Demon "?" Josiah finally came to this terrifying conclusion.
"" Beauty and the Demon "?"
Shiratori appeared in front of Josiah again. Its appearance calmed Josiah's inner uneasiness.
At least, Josiah could be sure that he was in the consciousness of the World Tree instead of going to another world.
"What the hell is going on here?"
Josiah pointed to the empty scenery outside the window. This was not like the consciousness of the World Tree.
"This is the place where the consciousness of all creatures in the world gathers."
Shiratori jumped to the windowsill and tried to open the window with its claws, but it failed.
Josiah also imitated its approach and tried to open the window, but no matter how much strength he used, he couldn't push the window open. Even if he hit the glass with his fist, the glass would not move.
There was no magic attached to the surface of the glass, and its strength was only ordinary glass. The reason why Josiah couldn't break the glass … was probably because 'the outside world does not exist.'
This was the same as in the game, you couldn't break a wall made of textures no matter how strong your firepower was.
Because the thing behind the wall did not exist.
"The place where the consciousness of all living beings gather …"
Josiah looked through the window and saw a piece of land on the other side of the void. He still didn't know what was on it.
But this was the setting of "Beauty and the Devil".
"I've never seen a place that's so concrete." Shiratori's voice carried a hint of surprise. "We need to construct a concrete image here. A large number of living beings are imagining the same thing in order to achieve this."
"The box office of Beauty and the Devil is equivalent to more than a hundred million on Earth. It would be strange if there weren't a lot of people watching it."
Josiah gave up on going outside and went straight to the end of the corridor, where the music was coming from.
"This place really does amaze me, but I want to finish building the server as soon as possible. Can't you let me return to your consciousness?" Josiah asked.
Shiratori was silent for a while. She seemed to be trying something, but in the end, she shook her head.
"Someone is stopping you from leaving."
"Stop me? Is there anyone else … alive here? "
Josiah glanced around, but he didn't see the white cat or the black cat.
Left with no choice, Josiah pushed open the door at the end of the corridor and arrived at the most classic scene in "Beauty and the Devil". It was the scene where Belle wore a grand dress and danced with the Devil Prince in a gorgeous hall.
This scene reappeared in front of Josiah again. It was as if the two people were real.
Josiah recalled his memories of filming movies, but the two people standing in front of him were not the two actors named "Ino" and "Zenas".
They were the real Belle and the Devil Prince, or … the audience's impression of them.
"I'm sorry! I interrupted your dance! " Josiah greeted them, but they didn't move. They didn't even hear what Josiah said.
"That …"
Josiah walked forward and wanted to stop their dance. But the moment Josiah grabbed the corner of Zenas' clothes, he was flung away by a huge force.
"Even the characters in the movie are … decorations?"
Josh looked down at his own hands. He was unable to stop the two of them from doing anything. In fact, he couldn't even pick up a flower vase from the table.
It was as if the vase was glued to the surface with high-quality glue.
Belle and the Devil Prince were still immersed in the dance. Their gazes were so sweet that it could drip honey.
Although there was more fear in Ino's eyes when she was acting, this romantic scene was naturally made even more romantic by the audience's imagination.
"Who … are you …"
Suddenly, a strange voice rang out.
Josiah admitted that he was scared!
When Josiah turned around, he saw a … figure shrouded in a black robe standing on the other side of the hall.
The figure was about the same height as the Prophet. Her voice sounded like a girl's, but it was very strange.
First of all, the tone. Just three words made Josiah feel like he was listening to a ghost. The three words were a combination of characters spoken by different people.
But why did Josiah feel like she was happy?
"I should be the one asking that question. Are you stopping me from leaving?" Josiah asked.
She nodded in reply. Then, she found a comfortable seat in the hall and watched Belle and the Devil Prince dance.
Josh could tell from the way she was swinging her legs that she was very happy about this scene.
"I don't mind you watching alone, but can you let me leave?" Josiah asked again.
She shook her head.
"… Why?"
"You're the creator of this place."
You should go find the original author of 'Beauty and the Beast'!
"I don't know who you are, but I don't have time to accompany you." Josiah took a deep breath and gently moved his wrist. His voice became a little scary. "I'll give you one last chance. Let me leave immediately, or else … you'll eat some bones!"
She turned to look at Josiah, who was counting his fingers. The pupils under the black robe stared at Josiah for a while, then ignored him again and looked at Belle and the Devil Prince.
"…"
Josiah, who was ignored, clenched his fists tightly. In the end, he could only let go. He regretted not bringing Hiri here.
But Josiah did not need to be in a hurry to build a server for the holy tree. Watching the holographic version of 'Beauty and the Devil' here was a good experience.
Perhaps she planned to leave after watching the whole movie?
