She had no recollection of this name.
But according to the other team members, Red Sigma Mata had encountered the undead in the ruins while exploring a certain mirror dimension and had died.
Two other vice-captains had died with him.
Their three Sacred Corpse Crystals had been stored in the Guard Cemetery, including the rest of the team. After they died, they were also placed in this cemetery.
Now, the entire team, including the two vice-captains, was in the formation, but Red Sigma Mata was missing.
This puzzled the team members.
They had thought that Red Sigma Mata had not been chosen to log in, but after Boneda's question, they realized that they were missing one person.
Without a doubt, the missing person was their captain, Red Sigma Mata.
"Did the captain get lost on the light bridge … That glowing path is called the light bridge, right?" someone asked softly.
"Hey, hey, Tata Kai. Are you blind or deaf? Evelyn just said that it was called the dream bridge and you blurted out the light bridge. I really wonder how you were chosen as a vice-captain. "
"Something like that." Tata Kai shrugged. "The meaning of a name is that when you say it out loud, others will understand what it is. It doesn't matter if I'm wrong, as long as you understand. "
Tata rolled her eyes, but in the blink of an eye, she frowned again. "Although the captain's IQ is not very high, the Dream Bridge is just a straight path. He shouldn't get lost. Besides, the light door on the other side of the bridge is so obvious. As long as his head hasn't been kicked by a crystal beast, he will know that he must go in the direction of the light door."
Tata Kai said, "That's true, but the captain doesn't take the normal path. Could he have jumped off the bridge and landed in the void?"
"… How could he be that stupid?"
Although that was what they said, they still considered this possibility.
Red Sigma Mata had not entered the Dream Crystal, so something must have happened. According to their own experience, the only thing they could think of was Red Sigma Mata jumping off the bridge.
While they were discussing, Boneda was also thinking.
She had also experienced the dream bridge and seen the endless dark void outside the dream bridge.
When she was walking on the dream bridge, she was a little worried, afraid that she would fall out … Would there really be someone who would jump out of the bridge without a care?
Although she did not believe it, this seemed to be the only explanation. Otherwise, why would the Red Gemata not appear?
It was impossible for him to stay in front of the door of light and hesitate to move forward, right?
Boneda decided to report it to the higher-ups first.
If Sigma Mata really did something irrational, it was not something she could handle. She could only leave it to Prophet Jota to decide.
A few minutes later, Boneda told Jota everything that had happened.
Jota was also dumbfounded after hearing this.
He did not know what had happened, but he was certain of one thing. When he took over the corpses of the guards, he had counted them. There was indeed a clansman called "Red Gemata"!
But why didn't he enter the Dream Crystal?
Personally, he did not believe the speculations of Bonida and his Red Gemata teammates.
If those geniuses from the other square formation who liked to show off their individuality had jumped over the dream bridge and fallen into the void, he would believe it. After all, geniuses always wanted to do something unusual.
However, as a former guard who had even reached the position of captain, he would not do something that was obviously impossible no matter how unpredictable he was.
Plus …
Jota had never dreamed before, but as a prophet, he knew a thing or two about "dreams".
As far as he knew, the dream bridge restricted one's consciousness, and it was not something that one could simply leave.
Only those who had the ability to control dreams, such as Dream Wizards, would be able to jump out of the Dream Bridge. As for others, they would only land on the same spot if they jumped out of thin air.
Jota did not think this was the reason.
In his opinion, it was most likely that Angor had left out Red Gemata.
After all, there were 200 corpses in total. It was normal that one of them was missing.
Jota asked Boneda to calm down the Red Gemata team members while he went to Angor and explained the situation.
Angor was puzzled. Did I leave out one?
Angor looked at Laplace in confusion. He did not miss anything in his memory.
Laplace said without hesitation, "No, they've all entered the Dream Crystal."
Jota frowned. "All of them? But Boneda did a headcount, and one of them was missing. "
Angor looked at the group of people who were mumbling to each other. Their voices were low, but Angor could easily hear them through the wind.
From their conversation, Angor heard that Red Gemata did not enter the Dream Crystal.
Could it be that something had really happened?
Angor asked Jota to calm down. "I'll go offline and check."
Jota thought Angor was going offline to check if he missed any corpses. But Angor was actually going offline to control the authority.
Angor clearly remembered that he brought all 200 people with him. If one person was missing, it meant that the person was still on the Dream Bridge.
Of course, Angor did not think that Red Gemata would jump out of the Dream Bridge.
In his opinion, Red Gemata's consciousness was still on the Dream Bridge.
After all, Red Gemata had been dead for a long time, and his consciousness had been sleeping inside the corpses for many years. Perhaps his consciousness was still in a sluggish state, and that was why he did not enter the Dream Crystal.
As for why Red Gemata was the only one who was not affected, Angor could only come up with one answer: individual differences.
Soon, Angor opened his eyes in the real world.
But he quickly closed them again and began to control the authority.
He could control the authority in the Dream Crystal as well. However, using it in front of Jota and giving him an answer right away would only raise his suspicions.
So, Angor decided to go offline first.
Soon, he received some feedback from the authority.
There was indeed another Dream Bridge that connected to the Dream Gate.
According to the information, the bridge had been connected for a long time, but no one had entered the Dream Gate yet.
Angor quickly realized that the dream bridge was connected to Sigma Mata.
"Nothing happened for a long time. Maybe his consciousness is still in a sluggish state," Angor mumbled as he used his authority to view the situation from God's Eye.
Using God's View, he quickly located the people on the bridge.
But what he saw left him a little dumbfounded.
"Why are there … two people?!
And why are they fighting? "
…
Inside the Crystal Space.
"Fighting? Two people? " It was Laplace. Not long after Angor logged off, Laplace also logged off.
She also wanted to know why there was one person missing. Besides, if something did happen, she could still discuss with Angor in real life how to deal with it.
So, she told Jota that she was leaving and logged off.
However, when Laplace heard Angor's answer, she was also puzzled.
Wasn't there only one Red Gemata? How come there was another person?
But now she understood why Red Gemata didn't enter the Dream Gate. It was because he was fighting with someone else.
According to Angor's description, the fight was quite intense. They were throwing punches and kicks at each other as if they wouldn't give up until the other was dead.
They were so engrossed in their fight that they completely forgot about the Dream Gate.
"Yes. And strangely, they're not from the same race," Angor said while using an illusion to simulate the scene.
A dark void stretched across the horizon.
A long bridge of light led directly to the Dream Gate on the other side.
Not far in front of the Dream Gate, two figures were beating each other crazily.
One of them had the appearance of a member of the Crystal Eye Clan. If he was not mistaken, he was the missing Sigma Mata. As for the other person, he looked like … a human male.
However, there were many strange blue patterns on his face.
From afar, they looked like lines. But if one zoomed in closer, they would see something shiny in the middle of the lines.
Rather than looking like lines, they looked more like tiny tubes.
The tubes were fused with the skin of the face, as if they were natural organs.
Apart from the tubes on his face, he didn't look any different from a human. His height, limbs, and facial features were all human.
In fact, he was quite handsome in human terms.
Not the kind of "manly handsome" that matured noblewomen would like. Instead, he looked more like a young girl with a heart as deep as poetry.
He was dressed in a slim-fitting black suit. The dark color of the suit accentuated the whiteness of his face.
"Is it a human?" Angor muttered. He couldn't tell for sure, so he looked at Laplace who was standing beside him.
Laplace shook his head. "I can't tell."
The only difference was the tubes on the man's face. Laplace didn't see anything similar in the Mirror Ocean projection. Even if he did, he would only think it was a human with painted lines on it.
Unlike Angor's illusions, the Mirror Ocean projection couldn't be paused or zoomed in to observe the lines on the man's face.
"Fine. I don't care if he's a human or not. But why are there two of them?" Angor had no idea what was going on.
It was obvious that he had only pulled the crystallized corpses. How could a non-crystallized eye race appear? More importantly, how did he get two people at the same time?
Also, shouldn't the two souls each have their own dream bridge? Why were they on the same one?
Angor couldn't figure it out … Wait.
He suddenly thought of something.
Back in the wizarding world, he pulled Roland into the dream wasteland. Roland had two personalities, and both of them could enter the dream wasteland at the same time.
The dream bridge that Roland's two personalities experienced was the same dream bridge.
So, could it be that the man with the tattoos on his face was a Red Gemata personality just like Roland?
But it was strange that a Crystaleye man's second personality turned into a "human".
He told Laplace about his "multiple personalities" theory.
Laplace also felt something was off. "It doesn't look like two personalities. Let's not talk about the racial differences between personalities. Do personalities really fight each other like this? Look at their eyes. It's like they killed each other's parents. "
It was normal for multiple personalities to fight against each other, but it was rare to see someone so hostile toward each other.
Laplace considered. "How about this? I'll go to the Dream Wasteland and ask Red Gemata's teammates. If he really has a second personality, the teammates who spend time with him will definitely notice his abnormality. "
"Should I go with you?"
Laplace shook his head. "You should keep an eye on them. Maybe they'll tell you the truth as they fight."
When there was a fight, there were also "curses". And when "curses" were used to gain the upper hand, they would often reveal the truth.
Angor gave it some thought and agreed. Maybe he could get some useful information by waiting a little longer.
…
Ten minutes later.
Angor rubbed his swollen temples and opened his eyes with a helpless look.
These two people would occasionally curse each other during their fight. But … Angor couldn't understand what they were talking about.
He could understand a few words from Red Gemata, but he couldn't understand a single word from the "human" man.
It didn't sound like a human language at all.
At least, Angor didn't know any human language that sounded like this.
Angor also noticed something else. Both Red Gemata and the tattooed man didn't understand what they were talking about either.
The two sides were like chickens and ducks talking to each other. It was no wonder that they were fighting rather than cursing each other most of the time.
If one couldn't understand the other person's words, no matter how nasty or nasty they were, it was like hitting cotton.
But this detail made Angor doubt the theory of "multiple personalities" again.
If there really were multiple personalities, how could they not understand each other's words?
Besides, Angor couldn't understand the language of the tattooed man. But judging from the syllables he used, the language was probably self-consistent.
A self-consistent language couldn't be created by the second personality, right?
So it was very likely that they weren't the second personality. Maybe they really were two different races.
Laplace slowly opened his eyes.
Angor was about to tell Laplace about the "language" when Laplace spoke first. "I think I know who that person is."
"Huh?" Angor was a little surprised.
Did he confirm his identity so quickly? Was it really Red Gemata's second personality?
However, Laplace's answer was completely out of his expectations.
"He's probably an undead from the ruin."
