Papaya once read an author's description in a travel book. "A mortal who has never seen supernatural powers suddenly enters the wizarding world, and the shock that changes your view of the world is a kind of baptism that helps you grow up. If you could realize that there was a bloody and dirty fight hidden under the flashy world, then you would be a qualified superhuman.
Papaya had experienced it herself. She could still remember how shocked she was when she first saw the supernatural world. She could never forget how she felt at that time.
And now, in the dream wasteland, Papaya experienced the same thing again.
Both the external environment and the mental world were shocking to Papaya.
Her body was hers, but it didn't feel like it. She could control her mana, but it felt different from before.
Even the elements in the air gave her a strange feeling. Her spiritual sense told her that they were real, but her thoughts in the dark denied their existence.
It was something that Papaya had never experienced before.
She had been in this world for half an hour, but her mind was still in a daze.
"Papaya, it's your turn." Kudodo nudged her from behind and woke her up.
Papaya looked up and saw the curly-haired man sitting in front of her desk. "Don't worry. It's just an ID registration. As a matter of fact, you don't need to register because you're supernaturals. But the new city is still under construction, and you'll need to stay in Foundation City for a while. To avoid unnecessary trouble, please register first. "
Papaya nodded. It wasn't Mister Padt who asked them to register, but since Mister Padt gave them to this man, Papaya believed that he wouldn't harm them. Besides, Papaya didn't want to be uncooperative since everyone else was already registered.
"Papaya, Krakok, 16 years old …"
After Papaya finished registering, the curly-haired man quickly organized the documents and handed them to his assistant. "You now have legal status in Foundation City. You can enjoy the benefits of being a citizen of Foundation City. You can ask the service staff in Firmament Tower for more details."
"A legal resident of First Heart City?" Kudodou scratched his head. He felt that what happened today was quite strange. He thought that he was here to participate in the research. How did he suddenly become a resident of a city?
"Yes, are you dissatisfied with this?" The curly-haired man looked at Kudou with a smile.
Although the other party was smiling, Kudodou felt a chill run down his spine. He quickly shook his head. "I'm not dissatisfied. I'm just curious why I've never heard of this place before."
"How long has it been since you became a superhuman? It's normal that you haven't heard of it. "
"But, Mister Padt …" Kudodo tried to argue, but the man in front of him interrupted him.
"Since Mister Padt didn't tell you anything about this place, do you really think that I, as Mister Padt's loyal subordinate, would do the job for him?" The curly-haired man chuckled. "Besides, you're only here for research, not to get to the bottom of things. Or is it that you care more about the truth here than the mission given to you by the Lord? "
When Kudodou heard this, he immediately gave up. It was obvious that Mister Padt was helping them by allowing them to join the research. It would be bad if Mister Padt got angry because of this. As the curly-haired man said, they were only here for a mission. There was no need to think too much.
"Now that we're registered, what's our next mission?" Papaya asked.
"Someone will take you to Mister Jon later. He's the one who started the research. Remember, Mister Jon will decide your final rating, so you better behave well in front of him. " The curly-haired man paused for a second and continued, "Oh, and a friendly reminder. Treat Mister Jon with respect. He's much more important than you are."
With that, the curly-haired man waved a hand and asked them to leave.
"What about me?" Balba, who had been standing at the back of the group, suddenly asked, "Mister Padt asked me to join the construction mission. Do I have to go with them?"
"Mister Jon is one of the people in charge of the construction mission. So, you'll have to report to him first. "
Balba nodded. "I see. Can I ask you one last question?"
"Go ahead."
"Do … do you know an apprentice sorcerer with the nickname 'Dream Reader'?" Balba carefully looked at the man behind the desk, trying to find some clues from his expression.
The curly-haired man smiled without hesitation. "I thought my name was gone after the purification garden incident. I didn't expect someone to still remember me. You asked me if I know Dream Reader? Of course I do. My nickname is Dream Reader. "
…
After leaving the office, Balba kept frowning. No one knew what he was thinking.
"Hey, big guy. Is Dream Reader the one who registered us?" Kudodo asked.
Papaya also looked at Balba curiously.
Balba didn't like talking to people. However, considering that these two would be working with Mister Padt in the future, Balba gave it some thought and replied, "When I was working in the alchemy shop, I've read almost a hundred episodes of Firefly's Nighttale. One of them mentioned that there's a potential student in the Tower of Hurricane called 'Dream Reader' Freud. I remember seeing a picture of him in the magazine. He looks exactly like that guy. "
"Freud? He's from the Tower of Hurricane? How did Mister Padt get involved with him? " Kudodou began to imagine the conflicts between wizard organizations, spies and counter-spies, and the struggles between them were just like those in a political game.
While Kudoudou's imagination was running wild, Balba suddenly said, "You're right.
"According to the records, 'Dream Reader' Freud has been confirmed dead."
Both Kudodo and Papaya were stunned by what they heard.
Was the person who registered them just now a dead person? How was that possible?
"Are you telling the truth? Is he really dead? "Papaya couldn't help but ask.
Balba nodded. "Yes."
"If he's dead, then is the person who spoke to us a soul? Is this the realm of souls? "The story in Kudodou's mind immediately changed from political intrigue to a ghost story.
"I don't know. But Freud is right. We don't need to think too much about it. We're just here for a mission. Even if it's the realm of souls, Mister Padt won't hurt us. " Balba paused for a second and said, "Don't think too much about it. The world of wizards is not something apprentices like us can understand. Focus on the mission."
