When he saw the "Glutton's Revelry" again, he was a little surprised.
He still remembered that when he first saw Helen's Dream, it had appeared to be a long crystal whip with barbed spikes.
Later, Helen's Dream was not fully explored, so it was combined with other people's dreams and turned into "Glutton's Revelry". As the special dream changed, so did the shape of the whip.
The whip was covered with large and small Mary Roses. The bright red roses made the whip even more beautiful, but also more dangerous.
Normally, the "Glutton's Revelry" Angor saw should be the same crystal whip with Mary Roses growing on it. But this time, it was different from the previous two versions.
The Mary Roses were still there. The barbs were still there. The crystal whip did not change either. However, there were human heads growing out from the stamens of the Mary Roses.
There were old and young human heads, and they all had different expressions. There was joy, anger, sorrow, and joy.
They looked normal, but when they were placed on the stamens of the roses, they looked very strange.
"… Did it evolve again?" Angor muttered, "Should I call it a Skull Rose now?"
Why did the whip change again? Angor did not know. The only thing he could do now was to contact Laplace through the birdcage's perspective and see if she knew something.
Angor planned to touch the whip and enter the birdcage's perspective. But he did not know where to put his hand. In the end, he decided to use his nightmare aura to enter the birdcage's perspective.
At the same time, he used his nightmare aura to envelop Dankros.
Dankros could also use Angor's eyes to see what was going on inside the birdcage.
However, Dankros was only borrowing his perspective. Even though he could see what was happening inside, his voice could not be transmitted to the box.
It was like watching a live broadcast while being muted.
…
As soon as Angor entered the birdcage's perspective, he saw three giant balloons floating above a half-destroyed house.
These human head balloons kept letting out strange and ear-piercing laughter.
As the laughter rose and fell, the energy inside the birdcage began to gather. Strong winds rose, thorns grew, and petals fell like a rain of blades.
The attacks formed by these energies all landed on the roof of the half-destroyed house.
Their target was the same. All their attacks were directed at the two people on the rooftop.
Laplace, who was covered in scales and looked heroic, and Glepnir, whose robe fluttered in the wind. His back was hunched, but his aura was still as strong as a rainbow.
Glepnir waved his robe, and all the attacks landed on himself.
However, these seemingly fierce attacks were completely ineffective in front of the robe's full defense.
Even the petals that could pierce through steel plates could not break the robe's defense. In fact, they did not even leave a mark on the robe.
Using his God's View, he saw that the three balloons had already used up about 70% of the energy in the courtyard. Even so, they could not hurt Glepnir.
The balloons kept attacking, but Glepnir easily blocked them. He even had time to chat with Laplace.
From this, it could be seen that Gleipnir's current defense had far exceeded the attack limit of this special dreamscape.
It could be said that Gleipnir alone could do whatever he wanted in this special dreamscape.
Not to mention, Laplace, who was even stronger than Glepnir.
This was why Angor did not worry about their safety at all. He and Dankrose stayed outside for a long time before coming here.
As it turned out, Angor was right.
Looking at this broken and special dream, as well as the three creepy-looking human head balloons that were completely ignored by Gleipnir and Laplace, she knew that they really didn't need to worry about them.
Angor silently prayed for the three balloons in his mind. He zoomed in and arrived at the roof of the ruined house.
He only saw Laplace and Glepnir on the roof, but he did not know what they were doing.
Now that he looked closer, he realized that they were discussing something intensely.
It was also because they were so engrossed in their conversation that they completely ignored the attacks of the three human head balloons.
As for what they were talking about, Angor did not pay any attention to it. All his attention was on the three-meter-tall meat mountain on top of the building.
When he first saw it, he almost thought that it was Greya.
Because it looked exactly like Greya's true form — the Meaty Demon.
The real body was indeed a fat woman. Her eyes were closed, and he could not tell if she was dead or alive. She was wearing a luxurious dress, but it was torn in many places.
However, it did not matter. There were many rose vines wrapped around her body, which did not look out of place.
Because of these rose vines, Angor did not notice her when he was in the sky. He only thought it was a rooftop garden. Now he realized that she was a super fat woman. She was the woman who woke up in Helen's Dream.
If he remembered correctly, her name was … Bila.
Although Bila was a little fat, she was definitely not a "meaty mountain".
So what happened to Bila?
The carnival of a glutton … Could it be that after Bi La became a glutton, she began to eat like crazy and became like this?
Angor did not know what was going on. Why didn't Gleipnir and Laplace do anything to Bila?
Yes, Bila was not dead. Her chest was still moving up and down, which meant she was still alive.
Her eyes were closed, which meant she was unconscious.
Also, the blade-shaped wounds on Bila's body suggested that Glepnir's Ivory Staff had something to do with her passing out.
If Bila was unconscious, why didn't they take the chance to kill her?
Or could it be that killing Bila would not solve the problem?
With that in mind, Angor turned his attention to Laplace and Glepnir.
Their conversation was still going on. Angor listened for a while and realized that they were all talking about "whether to kill Bila or not".
Laplace did not seem to have any opinion. They could choose to kill Bila or not. Glepnir, on the other hand, seemed to be in a dilemma. He kept saying "kill" and "not".
"What's going on?" Angor couldn't help but ask when Glepnir was talking to himself.
Both Laplace and Glepnir were surprised to hear Angor's voice. However, they soon came back to their senses.
"I thought you were going to talk to your little elemental friend outside. Are you done now?" Laplace asked.
"How did you know I was talking to Dankros outside?" Angor was surprised as well.
Laplace pointed at Gleipnir and said, "She told me. She said that your little elemental friend has something on his mind, and you're always focusing on him. Once we leave, you'll definitely talk to him. "
"From what you've said, she should have guessed correctly?"
Angor wanted to retort, but he held himself back in the end. "Sort of. After talking to him, Dankros no longer has anything on his mind. "
Glepnir spoke in a plain tone, "Just because the current problem is solved doesn't mean all the other problems can be solved."
Angor did not argue. Everyone in this world had their own problems. Growing up was the process of untangling one's mind and reconciling one's past, present, and future.
Glepnir's words were a typical prophecy. They were always correct. Angor would only fall into her trap if he did.
"I was the one who asked first. Why are you all asking me back now?" Angor muttered. He then saw Glepnir blocking another three balloons, so he quickly changed the topic. "Aren't you going to deal with those balloons?"
"Yes, but they'll regenerate every now and then. Too lazy to kill them. They can't do anything to us anyway. "
"Regenerate?"
Laplace nodded. "According to Glepnir's prediction, the balloons are powered by Bila. See, that meat mountain over there. As long as Bila is alive, they'll regenerate without limit. "
"They're attacking us to save Bila."
"Then why don't you kill Bila?"
Laplace did not answer this time. Instead, he gave Glepnir a look, indicating that he should explain.
Glepnir said, "When we were about to kill Bila, Laplace received a message that indicated that the exploration progress had reached 91%. After killing Bila, the mission would be completed and the mission would be terminated."
"If we can reach 100% after killing Bila, we can leave. But I don't think we can reach 100% even after killing Bila. "
"So you're trying to figure out a hundred percent probing rate again?"
"Yes, but it's different from what you think. Let Glepnir tell you the details. "
Gleipnir said, "The exploration degree is indeed an important issue. But we're more concerned about the revelation I received. "
"Revelation?" Angor asked, "You mean the prophecy of the Second Evolved Celestial Plate?"
"It's not the same as a prophecy." Glepnir sighed. "Forget it. Just think of it as a prophecy. I received a very contradictory message from the revelation. "
"To reach 100% exploration rate, one must die or live."
Angor was puzzled. "You want to live and die at the same time? "So do we kill her or not?"
Glepnir looked a little embarrassed and did not answer. Laplace spoke up, "This isn't the Mirror World. Astrology is more complicated. Even with the help of the Second Evolved Celestial Plate, this is all we can get. There's nothing more. "
Glepnir was troubled because he did not have enough information to analyze the revelation. He did not know if he should kill Bila or not.
Angor considered for a moment. "Is it possible that the dead and the living are not the same people? Maybe they're different people? "
Gleipnir said, "We've also thought of this possibility. But we've searched the entire area over and over again. We even destroyed the house, but we couldn't find another living being. "
Angor didn't know how to respond to Gleipnir's words.
This was indeed a difficult problem to solve.
"Why don't we talk about something else first? Maybe we'll get some inspiration after we relax."
Glepnir did not listen to Angor's words. After explaining the situation, he was once again hesitating.
Instead, it was Laplace who asked, "You mean, you want to know what happened after we entered this place?"
"If you're willing to tell —"
Laplace shrugged. "Nothing special. We cleaned up the place as soon as we came in."
Laplace did not hide anything and told Angor what happened after they entered the place. Basically, they cleaned up the roses in the garden, the strange puzzles, and the "holes" left behind in the house. They also tried to use Bila as a bait to catch a big fish. But in the end, they realized that Bila was the only big fish in the entire house.
The three balloons were probably Bila's ability. As long as Bila did not die, she would be able to regenerate indefinitely.
There was only one word to describe all of this.
Since Glepnir was an Astrologer, he did not need to find the answers for many of the puzzles.
For example, the biggest puzzle they had to solve after entering the special dream was to find all of Bila's clones.
Yes, Bila was not a meatball at first. Instead, she had four limbs, a mouth, intestines, and a stomach. They had to find all of Bila's organs and force Bila back to her original body.
This "mountain of flesh" was Bila's real body. It was also the true body of Gluttony.
The process was supposed to be puzzle-solving, but Glepnir used astrology to skip the puzzles and find the organs. They did not even need to solve the puzzles to reach the final step.
However, they did not expect to be stuck at the last step.
They did not dare to kill Bila, and they could not let her go either. This was why they were stuck in a deadlock.
"… That's about it. Do you have any ideas? "Laplace asked.
Angor considered for a moment. "Not yet."
Laplace did not feel disappointed. If they could not find the answers themselves, it was only natural that Angor, who was only a spectator, did not know anything.
Since they could not find a solution, no one spoke for a while.
In the end, Angor broke the silence.
"Oh, right. When I came in, I noticed that the crystal object outside changed its shape. A human head grew out of the stamen of the Big Mary Rose. Do you know what's going on?"
Laplace considered. "Well … it might have something to do with Glepnir."
