The process of Hao Ren seeing through the truth of L 'Haronne was actually more complicated than he had let on, because some things like intuition and ESP were hard to describe in words. His two years of training in this area was all thanks to his two years of experience. Whether it was Lockmarton who used dreams to corrupt reality, or the Brain of Dreams that created the Nightmare Legion, the nightmares they created had left a deep impression on Hao Ren, and it had also allowed his spirit to undergo some subtle changes.
The most obvious effect of this change was that he was exceptionally proficient in controlling his spiritual power, and was also extremely sensitive to the dissonance he felt when he entered an illusion or dream, and that dissonance was almost undetectable to normal people, or even weaker demigods.
The dreamer would not be able to realize that they were in a dream, but not Hao Ren. He was exceptionally clear-headed in any dream, even if it was a dream created by the gods.
Of course, this only improved his judgment in the dreams of L 'Haronne, and it was Noobie who confirmed his own judgment. This muddle-headed and super weak little fellow had almost no power, but her one and only "talent" was irreplaceable. A creature of chaos, of the same origin as the Mad Lord but harmless, in the field of spiritual interference, she was the best detector.
The silver-haired, red-eyed goddess looked curiously at the little thing running around her. She could sense the hint of madness coming from the little thing, but she did not make a move because she could feel that Noobie was harmless, and she could tell from the attitude of these people whether they were malicious.
After figuring out how Hao Ren saw through the dream, she smiled a little helplessly. "I never thought that the dream world I created would be seen through by this little fellow … Unexpected, unexpected."
As she spoke, she turned her gaze to Vivian. "I can feel the aura on your body. It was left behind by me back then, but …"
While Vivian was prepared, she could not help but feel nervous when the goddess of creation looked at her. She took half a step forward and opened her mouth, but no sound came out.
"You are different from what I expected …" The goddess blinked in confusion. "Both your form of power and soul structure have deviated from what I expected, and you do not seem to have developed the personality and memories I gave you. I can feel … aside from that presence, you have completely grown into an individual beyond my expectations."
As she said that, she propped herself up with some effort and sat on the boulder she was leaning on. Her eyes swept across everyone. "And your appearance was also unexpected. Sigh, looks like in the end, everything has deviated from my plan. "
"I rejected the Throne of Destiny." Vivian finally plucked up the courage and took the initiative. "And I did not complete my role as a guide, because I had lost my memory when I arrived in the other universe …"
Hao Ren patted Vivian's shoulder and looked at the goddess of creation. "The Throne of Destiny is flawed. While I did not want to tell you this when you first woke up, your plan actually could not have succeeded from the beginning. There was a loophole in the system you designed, the guards you left behind were divided, and even Vivian — that is, she, was actually contaminated by the power of the Mad Lord from the beginning. We spent a lot of effort to solve this problem. So … "
Hao Ren did not continue, but his meaning was clear. Faced with the truth, the goddess of creation's expression was very calm, as if she had expected it. "Is that so, it seems that I have really underestimated my old rival … Vivian, is that your name now?"
She looked into Vivian's eyes and seemed to see the latter's nervousness. She smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, I won't eat you. Are you worried that I will be angry because of the Throne of Destiny? Actually, it doesn't matter at all. I had guessed it when I found out that you had developed an unplanned personality. "
Hao Ren looked at the goddess of creation, and then at Vivian, and quickly understood what the former meant.
Just as he had thought before, the goddess of creation was not the kind of god who would impose a mission on anyone. Perhaps she had set up a set of original memories and instructions for the divine avatar, but after the divine avatar split and the personality of Vivian was born, the "mission" of the guide and the Lord of the Throne had lost its meaning.
This put Vivian at ease, and Hao Ren breathed a sigh of relief. After all, if possible, he was too embarrassed to take out the Bible with the chain.
"Tell me about the situation outside. I have been asleep for too long." The goddess of creation gently covered her forehead as if she had not fully recovered from her 10,000-year sleep. "Since you can come here, does that mean the outside world is not too bad?"
"In fact … the situation is not much better." Hao Ren shook his head helplessly. "The era of life in the Plane of Dreams has ended, and now it is a period of decline. The only good news is that the seal you left behind has not completely collapsed. As for us, we actually came from another universe. "
"Actually, I have already guessed it. Because I sent her … Vivian out of this world, I am very sure of the existence of other universes." The goddess of creation laughed. "But it is really interesting to see visitors from another universe. If it was in the past, I would have been very attentive to you, but things are different now. You can tell me about the other world here."
"Of course, first of all, we have to talk about the god of our world. You should be able to easily guess that since this universe has you, then it is normal for other universes to have a god. And I am here on behalf of our god …"
It was very difficult to explain the setting of another world in a few words, so Hao Ren chose to briefly explain the origin of his group and the background of Raven 12345. Of course, he also mentioned the current situation in the Plane of Dreams, including some of the progress he had made in the Plane of Dreams so far, about the remaining ecological planets, the crazy First Borns, the surviving guardian giants, the Gate of Solenne, the rebuilding of the Creation's Engine, the battle in the Core System, and the guardian army of Salaman, who was currently on standby in the main material world.
"A huge pantheon? I don't know about these things at all. It seems that I am really ignorant … "
"Is it? Most of them have been corrupted … I have tried to save them, but in the end, even I have fallen into this situation …"
"Ah, Lockmarton, Lockmarton, he is my first child. I have made too many mistakes with him. This ending is probably a kind of release for him …"
"Amantir has also been destroyed … I have created the guardian army alone, hoping that they would guard that place, but I did not expect the corruption to spread to them."
After the conversation ended, the silver-haired goddess shook her head awkwardly. "Looks like you have really helped me clean up a lot of messes."
"To be frank, they are indeed a mess, but who asked me to deal with such things?" Hao Ren spread his hands helplessly. "Inspectors are meant to clean up messes."
The MDT floated over and said, "But not every mess is left by a god."
"Cut it out," Hao Ren shot the MDT a glance. "She is already embarrassed enough."
"It's okay, it is the truth after all." The goddess was very magnanimous. She seemed to have recovered a little, and she looked much more energetic. "I have been immersed in the dream for too long, it is time to face reality. But then again … can't you wake me up a little more gently? You actually summoned the projection of the Star of Creation in L 'Haronne, and right in front of me … There is nothing crueler than this. "
"I knew it. You are Rheia." Hao Ren looked at the goddess, who was almost identical to Rheia, except for her hair color and eye color. "I did not want to wake you up this way, but I really could not think of any other stimuli that could wake a true god from the dream."
"Rheia is one of my avatars in L 'Haronne, but I am curious about one thing. How did you know, or rather, guess that she is my avatar?"
"Perhaps you are very immersed in the process of 'role-playing', but the onlooker sees more." The one who answered her was not Hao Ren, but Nangong Sanba, who had been standing by the side without saying a word. While the latter was as confused as the others not long ago, after understanding the truth of L 'Haronne, he immediately figured out many things. "No one dares to approach the Great Pit, no one dares to study the Great Pit, no one dares to make such a unique judgment about the Great Pit, but' Rheia 'has done it all. Perhaps Rheia is an ordinary sorceress in L 'Haronne, from strength to background, but on the other hand, Rheia is a very special person. She is the only one who is curious about the truth of the dream and acts on it, while the ordinary residents of the dream will not be interested at all, and will instinctively stay away. "
"And there is another very important reason," Hao Ren continued. "We are a group of outsiders, an unstable factor that 'invaded' the dream from the real world, and unstable factors are the most likely to cause the awakening of the dream. Based on the normal operation of the dream, under such circumstances, there will be a 'rejection' mechanism. In fact, the last cataclysm in L 'Haronne was the manifestation of this rejection mechanism at its extreme. Of course, before the rejection reaches that stage, we have already come into contact with the first layer of insurance in the dream. "
"It is me, or should I say 'Rheia'." The goddess smiled. "Because the entire dream revolves around her, so she is the most stable and most assimilable part of the dream. If you were a group of ordinary intruders, you would have been assimilated the moment you saw Rheia, and then you would have thought that you are a native of L 'Haronne, and have been a mercenary for half your life …"
Lily stuck her tongue out. "Just thinking about it is thrilling."
"In fact, this assimilation has worked." Hao Ren deliberately paused for a second before reminding the others. "It worked once. Look at your hands, is the mark of the World Tree still there?"
