While Raven 12345 was somewhat unreliable, Hao Ren had studied his job manual. He knew that dealing with suspected transmigrators was part of his job scope. If Hilda really came from another world, then he had to find out the cause and effect of her transmigration and find a way to send her back — either to a designated settlement by the Space Administration or some other suitable place. But before that, he had to find a way to transfer Hilda from The Plane of Dreams to the Surface World.
The MDT's voice rang in his mind. "No problem. Just use your coordinates in the Surface World as the reference point. I'll be in charge of the modulation. It's 100% safe."
"Can we really send a living person to the Surface World?!" Hao Ren was quite surprised. "How? We have a body outside, and when we come out, we can just 'resurrect'. How does Hilda come out? "
The MDT explained, "If you have a deeper understanding of the Grand Unification of Information, you will know that the so-called 'transmigration' is just a group of data cut and paste, and this is what Xi Ling technology is best at. Hilda does not have a corresponding body in the Surface World, but we can directly package and download all her data in The Plane of Dreams to the outside world. Remember, The Plane of Dreams is a real world. Due to some reasons, it is one level lower than the Surface World's' reality priority '. So, things here can be transported to the outside world through complex conversion. Think about it, how did you bring that tuft of wolf fur outside? "
Hao Ren thought for a moment. "Hmm, if that's the case, can we enter The Plane of Dreams without the hibernation pod? Can we just teleport in? "He really did not want to remember the row of coffins in his basement.
"Unfortunately, not at the moment," the MDT dismissed Hao Ren's idea. "Teleportation is one-way. Currently, the connection between The Plane of Dreams and the Surface World is in a delicate state of balance. The Plane of Dreams can be seen as a fragile old system, while the Surface World is more robust and complex. You can read data from an old system and write it to a new system, but reading data from a new system and writing it to an old system may cause an error. So to enter The Plane of Dreams from the Surface World, you still need to use a hibernation pod as a guide. Of course, under the premise of guidance, you could bring in a lot of things. You could even pack up a spaceship and stuff it into your Dimensional Pocket. But before that, the first individual to be transported into the Plane of Dreams must use a hibernation pod to guide the process. Also, if Hilda wants to come back after leaving The Plane of Dreams, she'll have to use a hibernation pod. "
Now that Hao Ren could understand these complex theories, he was immediately disappointed.
The spiritual communication only lasted for a few seconds. Hilda had just started her mysterious ritual: she came to the side of the charred Ent Guardian, took out some strange powder and sprinkled it into the air. She chanted and the strange powder gradually glowed green under her spell and slowly fell on the wreckage of the Ent Guardian. The wreckage, which had completely lost its vitality, immediately turned green like a withered tree in the spring. Some buds and stems peeked out from the scorched shell of the Ent Guardian as if this behemoth was about to come back to life.
However, it did not come back to life. The green on the Treant Guardian only spread to a radius of one meter. When the buds and leaves grew to a certain extent, they parted to the sides. Then, a bud-like thing popped out from under the dead wood. Hilda removed the bud and opened it to reveal what was inside. It turned out to be a seed.
"It followed me from a faraway hometown. I have to at least bring its seed back." Hilda silently said goodbye to the remains of the Ent Guardian and turned to look at Hao Ren. "Now we can go."
On the way to the Blood Lake, Hao Ren walked together with Hilda out of curiosity. He was curious why she was still wandering in the forest when she had arrived two days earlier. Hilda did not hide anything. "There are checkpoints on all the roads and you need a pass to pass. I don't want to cause any unnecessary trouble so I've been looking for another way in the forest. But the places without checkpoints are occupied by monsters and there's no way to pass easily. I summoned the Ent Guardian but I didn't expect it to go out of control so quickly. I've basically been tracking this out-of-control Ent for the past two days. "
"How did it go out of control all of a sudden?" Hao Ren asked curiously.
Judging from the situation of the Ent Guardian, Hilda was quite powerful. Although he did not know what level she was in her own world, it was obvious that she could be considered as a master in this world just by summoning the Ent Guardian. This was probably the source of her confidence when she moved around alone and chose to cooperate with strangers. But how did the Ent Guardian suddenly go out of control?
"I don't know. But there must be something wrong with the soil and water here." Hilda shook her head. "There's a very strange life force in the environment here. It allows creatures to thrive but at the same time, it slowly distorts and mutates. At first, I thought I've found the perfect nursery, but I didn't notice the side effects of this life force."
This time, before Hao Ren could speak, the MDT said, "I don't have this module. I don't know what she's talking about."
By the time they arrived at the lake, it was almost dusk. They had spent the whole day traversing through the dense forest. Fortunately, there was a path in the forest, and they were not slow on foot. The Gnarled Grove was no laughing matter.
The blood-red lake was right in front of them. Looking at it at such a close distance, it was indescribably strange. After coming out of the forest, Lily ran in the front, but her cheers stopped abruptly when she reached the lake. The husky might have wanted to paddle in the lake, but when she saw the big pool of "blood", she was frightened. She carefully circled around the lake, hesitated for a long time before she turned around and dipped her tail in the water. Suddenly, she jumped up and said, "Whoa! It's so cold! "
Hao Ren stepped forward and patted Lily's head. "Stop it. What if you have an allergic reaction and you're going to lose your fur again … Hey, don't flail around! You're getting water all over me! "
Y 'zaks came to the lake. Relying on his good physique, he did not mind the strange lake water at all (it was safer than magma anyway). He squatted down and drank a handful of water. "Hmm, it's normal, a little salty. Seems like a mild saltwater lake."
"It's not blood. It has nothing to do with blood." Vivian also created a little bat to taste the water in the lake. "Aside from the strange color, there seems to be nothing special."
Becky did not expect Y 'zaks to be so strong that he drank the water in the lake directly. She suddenly exclaimed, "Hey, don't drink it! There's something strange in the water. Ordinary people will get sick if they drink it! "
Y 'zaks did not care. As a demon, even his blood was highly toxic. However, Vivian quickly dispersed her little bat. "The lake water is poisonous?"
"I wouldn't say 'poisonous', but it's definitely not normal." Becky pointed at the Gnarled Grove behind her. "It's said that the Gnarled Grove and the Toxic Plain on the other side are the result of the lake water's influence. Do you think this water is drinkable?"
Lily suddenly came to Hao Ren with a sad face. She pulled at his sleeve and showed him her tail. "Mr. Landlord, I'm really shedding … I'm poisoned. I need to eat something good to nourish my body …"
"You're the one shedding, not me!" Hao Ren pushed Lily's tail aside. "And you're shedding normally in cold weather. Do you think I can't see the difference between allergies and normal shedding?"
Lily wagged her tail. "Then I want to eat something good."
Anyway, the husky was hungry and was looking for an excuse to eat more.
Becky laughed and pointed at a small platform not far away. There was a simple tower and roof on it. "Let's report to the Knights' outpost first. There's a place to rest. We can also find out where the search is going."
Vivian glanced at her. "You still want to try your luck? The search for the Orb of the Holy Synod has almost stopped. "
Becky looked happy. "That's because the other mercenaries have withdrawn. That's our chance! My luck has always been good. Maybe I can find the orb. Even if I can't find it, there's a lot of valuable herbs around the beach and the edge of the forest. It'll be worth it if I can find some. Haha, you have to believe in my luck! "
Vivian did not expect to be hurt both physically and mentally. She immediately returned to Hao Ren with a defeated look. "I hate it when people talk about luck. I hate it when people talk about luck … Rich people go to hell …"
Hao Ren was speechless.
