[Main Quest 5 is about to end. ]
[Gulaimo and Uriel's "dream" will begin the countdown. ]
[Remaining time of "dream": 3 minutes.]
[Countdown: 02: 59.]
[Countdown: 02: 58.]
…
Luigi didn't know what was going on when he saw the notification.
Shouldn't the notification tell him that he had completed his main quest? Why was there a countdown for "dream"?
Half a minute later, Luigi saw a new notification and realized what was going on.
[Attention. You are free to ask questions before the "dream" ends. Whether you answer or not depends on your question and the NPC's opinion. ]
"So … the Fairyland Authority warned me because I didn't do anything?"
Luigi felt like he had found the truth.
But then again, if you want me to ask a "dream" NPC, why didn't you put it in the notification from the start?
You want me to guess? That's so unprofessional.
You wasted half a minute of my time.
Although Luigi was complaining in his heart, his reaction wasn't slow. The moment he saw the new Immortal Realm notification, he quickly walked in front of Gulaimo and asked,
"Can I ask you a question?"
Gulaimo hesitated and nodded. "You're the new 'Green Star', so I'll answer all your questions. Do you want to ask about the 'Green Star's' obligations and benefits? "
Luigi shook his head without hesitation. "No. I just want to know one thing. Can you tell me what the 'Stage of Dreams' is?"
Earlier, Luigi talked with Angor about this.
Angor used The Lonely Fruit Tree as an example and said that the "Stage of Dreams" might not be a real stage, but a spiritual symbol.
Although Luigi was very resistant to this kind of hypocritical behavior, he had to admit that some riddlers really loved the meaning of this "spiritual symbol".
If the "Stage of Dreams" really didn't exist and was just a spiritual symbol, Luigi would feel like all his efforts were wasted.
It was like a chef who was searching for "an endless sea of ingredients", only to discover that the place was just a metaphor and didn't exist. He would probably lose his mind on the spot.
Of course, the Riddler would say earnestly, "The process of you pursuing your dream is a kind of experience to enrich yourself. Look, after decades of training, haven't you become an unparalleled chef in the world? "
Perhaps some people would eat this chicken soup for the soul.
But Luigi did not like it.
He didn't want the "Stage of Dreams" to be a spiritual symbol of empty space. He hoped that such a stage really existed. To be able to let him go up there and unleash his passion, to play the passion in his heart.
Therefore, his first question was about the Stage of Dreams.
Gulaimo was stunned for two seconds. "The stage of your dreams? Are you referring to the Royal Music Troupe's stage, or the other countries' stages … "
Luigi: "I don't know what the 'stage of dreams' is, that's what Uriel told me. He said that Chief Charlotte had obtained the qualifications to go to that stage, but Chief Charlotte didn't seem to want to go … "
Luigi quickly explained what he knew about the "Dream Stage".
Gulaimo seemed to have understood something when he heard this. He muttered, "You're talking about that stage …"
"That stage? Which stage? "
Gulaimo shook his head. "I'm actually not sure what kind of stage it is. Its existence was told to us by a great existence. "
"According to this great existence, the scale of that stage far exceeds the stages of the other countries. It's not just a competition between countries, but a competition between heavens. "
"Artists from countless worlds and infinite planes will gather on this stage and start a life-and-death competition where they will either win or die trying."
Gulaimo's description made Luigi sigh in relief. From what he said, the so-called "Stage of Dreams" was indeed not a spiritual symbol, but a real stage.
As long as he knew that such a stage existed, Luigi felt that his previous efforts were not in vain.
But then again, "Why is it a life-and-death competition? Who is this great existence? Also, where is this Stage of Heavens? What are its rules? "
Luigi's series of questions made Gulaimo a little dazed.
He already felt that his thoughts were a little delayed, and now it was a mess. A ball of yarn appeared in front of his eyes … He was dizzy.
Gulaimo: "Ask them one by one."
Luigi could see that Gulaimo was acting strangely. As an experienced player of Uriel's dungeon, he knew very well that this was the side effect of the "dream" state.
When he asked Uriel about his "dream" state, it was the same. He said ten sentences, but Uriel could only catch half a sentence, which made him very anxious.
Later, when he challenged Gulaimo, Luigi found that Gulaimo's answers were quite smooth, so he thought that the "dream" state didn't affect him much. Now it seemed that the "dream" effect was still there, but Gulaimo was slightly better than Uriel.
Thinking of this, Luigi could only restrain himself and ask one question at a time.
"Why is the Stage of Dreams a life-and-death competition?"
Gulaimo thought for two seconds, then said, "That great existence once said that the Stage of Heavens has its own rules. The winner wins everything, and the loser is a skeleton."
In other words, the Stage of Heavens only allowed the winner to live, and the loser to die.
This was also why it was called the "life-and-death competition".
"It's also because of this rule that Chief Charlotte gave up on participating in the Stage of Heavens." Gulaimo sighed. "But I know that Chief Charlotte didn't give up because she was afraid of death. She was persuaded to stay.
The Imperial Music Troupe can't do without her, and she can't leave the Imperial Music Troupe. "
Luigi didn't comment on Gulaimo's lamentation. He even felt that it was a waste. He thought that Gulaimo would bring up some useful topics, but it turned out to be just some trivial matters. It was a waste of time to talk about these things.
After all, Gulaimo only had one minute left in the "dream" state.
Luigi still had three questions to ask.
If he continued to ask questions step by step, he definitely wouldn't finish. He had to reorder the questions and ask the ones he felt were important first!
Luigi quickly said, "The second question is, where is the Stage of Dreams?"
Gulaimo shook his head and frowned. "I'm not too sure. It's not in the Great Tesman Empire, nor is it in the world we live in. It seems to be in another world … "
The Stage of Dreams wasn't in the Western Continent?
Luigi wasn't too surprised. Since Gulaimo called the Stage of Dreams the Stage of Heavens, it definitely involved a large number of general planes.
Although the Western Continent was a powerful world, the threshold was also very high. Artists from other worlds might not be qualified to enter the Western Continent.
In particular, many artists were still ordinary people. If they went to a powerful world, there was a high chance that they would be affected by the world's will and be rejected by the world.
Once this happened, ordinary people would almost certainly die.
Therefore, the best choice was definitely an open world where ordinary people would be less affected.
"The third question is, who is the great being you mentioned?"
Gulaimo shook his head again. "You have to ask Chief Charlotte about this. Chief Charlotte is the one who contacted that great being. We don't know his identity. However, since Chief Charlotte called him a great being, there's a high chance that he's an Extraordinary … "
Although Gulaimo had never personally come into contact with an Extraordinary, he had heard many rumors about them.
He had even heard that the Empire's royal family raised Extraordinaires, and the Church had Extraordinaires backing them.
Therefore, he was actually no stranger to "Extraordinary".
Luigi: "The fourth question, did Chief Charlotte tell you how to go to the Stage of Dreams?"
Gulaimo: "No, but there's a high chance that it's that great being …"
Gulaimo suddenly stopped mid-sentence.
Luigi raised his head in confusion and saw that Gulaimo's eyes had suddenly changed. They weren't as deep and turbid as before, but had become calm.
This calmness was almost exactly the same as Mulloy's.
As someone who had experienced this before, Luigi was no stranger to this gaze. He had witnessed Uriel's "dream" state and his normal state countless times.
Obviously, Gulaimo's "dream" state had expired and he had returned to his normal state.
Fortunately, although Gulaimo didn't finish his last question, Luigi had already guessed what he was going to say.
How would they go to the Stage of Heavens? There was a high chance that the great being would take them there.
That meant that if he wanted to go to the Stage of Heavens, he had to go to the Western Continent?
But …
Could what happened in the Wonderland instance really affect reality?
Luigi felt a little confused, but he didn't think too much about it. He just had to follow the main mission. If it hadn't ended yet, there would definitely be an explanation later.
Speaking of which, now that Gulaimo's "dream" state had disappeared, why hadn't the notification of completing the main mission popped up?
As Luigi was puzzled, he heard a hesitant voice.
"Can I ask you something?"
Luigi looked back and saw that it was Uriel who had asked the question.
Most importantly, Uriel's eyes were clearly in a muddled state. They weren't clear. This meant that Uriel was still in the "dream" state?!
Huh, the three-minute countdown had ended, so why hadn't Uriel ended his "dream" state?
Could the notification of the Wonderland be wrong?
"What's the question?" Although Luigi was curious why Uriel was still in the "dream" state, he knew that no one could answer this question. Uriel definitely didn't know the answer himself.
Therefore, there was no need to ask.
Uriel: "Can I record the three pieces of music you just performed, compile them, and send them back to Birmingham's Eden Academy for publication in the school magazine?"
"This will also increase your reputation and further deepen Chief Charlotte's recognition of you."
In the face of Uriel's expectations, Luigi nodded without hesitation. "Of course."
During the "Hidden Easter Egg" event, he had already given Uriel several of his own songs. One or two more wouldn't make a difference.
Moreover, the three songs he performed today were his masterpieces, especially the "Galaxy Hymn". He had put in a lot of effort into it. He also hoped that these songs would spread far and wide and let more people know about them.
As Luigi nodded in agreement, Uriel bowed solemnly with a gratified expression.
A second later, Uriel's eyes returned to normal.
The "dream" state was over.
Luigi: "… So the extra dream state was just to ask about this one thing?"
This copyright awareness was quite strong.
Luigi cursed inwardly, but decided not to delve into it for now.
Because —
The long-awaited notification of the Wonderland had finally appeared!
"Special Dreamland" Uriel's Choice "Main Mission 5, challenge successful. "
"Evaluation: If you want to straighten your back and cut through thorns and thorns, if you want to gain Charlotte's recognition, if you want to step onto the stage of the heavens … This is only the first step. "
"Reward calculation: Based on the current progress of the main mission, the following rewards are given. "
"Reward 1: Mulloy's Command Class." "
"Reward 2: Guraimo's Command Class." "
When he saw the Wonderland notification, Luigi's first thought was: There seems to be no Main Mission 6?
Under normal circumstances, every Wonderland notification would appear: "Main Mission X has been completed. Main Mission X + 1 will be activated after the reward calculation." "
But this time there was no such notification.
Could it be that Uriel's dungeon had been cleared?
But according to Bila's experience, there should be a notification for clearing the dungeon. Why wasn't there a notification for clearing the dungeon this time?
Luigi was a little confused, but he didn't think too much about it. Instead, he first looked at the rewards for clearing the main mission 5.
The first reward was: Mulloy's Command Class.
This wasn't an item reward, but a "summoning" skill.
The introduction said: "When in the" Uriel's Choice "dungeon or related derivative dungeons, you can summon Mulloy and learn the Command Class. Limited to two hours per day. "
Mulloy's identity was the former chief conductor of the Empire Music Troupe. His Command Class must be excellent.
But Luigi had never been exposed to a Command Class, nor had he worked with a conductor.
This class was completely unfamiliar to him.
"This reward is not bad, but …" When he thought of learning a new skill, Luigi felt the pressure.
Luigi swallowed and continued to look at the second reward: Guraimo's Command Class.
From the introduction, it was somewhat similar to "Mulloy's Command Class." But! But!
Guraimo's Command Class had an additional note.
"When in the" Uriel's Choice "dungeon or related derivative dungeons, you can summon Guraimo and learn Harp Rendition. Limited to two hours per day. " "
"Note: When the reward is activated after 8pm every day, there is a small probability of summoning Guraimo in the" Dream "state. "
