Chapter 814 I took a leave yesterday due to some matters
Under Merlin's stunned gaze, Ysera appeared beside him like a ghost.
At this moment, Ysera was wearing a gorgeous dress, like the Pharaoh Queen of Egypt.
She wore a towering golden crown inlaid with countless dazzling gems. In the center, a huge emerald emitted a mysterious and deep light, as if it could see through people's hearts.
She was wearing a thin white gauze dress, which was embroidered with golden runes and dragon patterns. It fluttered gently in the breeze, vaguely outlining her graceful figure.
Around her neck hung a necklace made of pure gold, on which hung an exquisitely carved dragon-shaped pendant. Two rubies were inlaid in the dragon's eyes, sparkling with an enchanting red light.
She held a long staff in her hand, on top of which was a huge crystal ball. There seemed to be clouds and mist rolling inside the crystal ball, mysterious and unpredictable.
Ysera's expression was dignified. She gently raised the staff in her hand, and her voice resounded like a bell, "Silence!"
In an instant, the noisy dragons and various dragon creatures below all quieted down, staring at her intently, waiting for her next words.
Ysera glanced around and spoke slowly, "I, Ysera, the Goddess of Dreams! Today I have a crucial announcement to make. You all know that the authority to enter dreams is the supreme power I bequeathed to the dragon race. It contains fragments of divine laws and is my gift to the dragon race. However, this power has now been stolen by a despicable thief!"
Ysera's eyes revealed anger and unwillingness. She gripped her staff tightly, her knuckles turning white from the force.
She continued, "The power to enter dreams should have played its due role in the dragon race's inheritance, but now it has fallen into the hands of a human. This is absolutely unacceptable!"
As she spoke, Isera raised her staff, pointed it at Merlin beside her, and declared loudly: "This is the sinner who stole the power of [Entering Dreams], a human named Merlin Leo! Now, in the name of the God of Dreams, I declare that whoever can kill him in the dream world and seize the authority of [Entering Dreams] will become a VIP of the Emerald Dragon clan! Not only that, they will also be allowed to retain the power of [Entering Dreams] and become my divine messenger, gaining the supreme honor of communicating directly with me!"
Ysera paused briefly, a sly look flashing in her eyes as she continued to offer tempting conditions: "If you are not a pure-blooded dragon, I will help you become one, granting you a more noble bloodline and allowing your status among the dragon clan to soar! You will have endless resources, and your path to cultivation will be unimpeded! You will also gain access to top-level spells that I personally teach you, and your strength will soar!"
"I can even guarantee your path to becoming a demigod!"
Ysera's voice was filled with allure, stirring up the emotions of the dragons and various dragonblood races below: "Kill, bite, and demonstrate your strength! In short, kill Merlin and gain [Dream Entering]! You may use any means, without any scruples! This is your golden opportunity to reach a higher level!"
The giant dragons and various dragon-blooded races below instantly went crazy. They let out deafening roars, and their cries resounded throughout the world: "Kill! Kill! Kill!"
What Ysera promised made them extremely jealous and drove them completely crazy.
They stared at Merlin intently, their eyes filled with anger and greed. Some of them waved their huge claws, leaving sharp claw marks in the air; some opened their bloody mouths, revealing their sharp fangs, and let out low roars; others rubbed their hands excitedly, unable to wait to rush up and tear Merlin into pieces.
Ysera looked at Merlin, who seemed to be frightened and stunned, and a cold smile appeared on her lips. "You have three days left. I will build a bridge to your dream world. You can't escape, you can't hide, just wait to be killed! The moment you stole the power to enter the dream, this ending was destined!"
"What does it have to do with me? It's obviously Andersen..."
Before Merlin could finish his words, the surrounding scenery disappeared in an instant like a broken mirror, and Merlin returned to his original empty and silent dream world.
Selene walked lightly to Merlin's side, with a hint of teasing on her face, and asked, "How was it? Were you scared by that scene just now?"
Merlin smiled wryly and shook his head, saying frankly, "It's impossible to say I'm not afraid. After all, facing so many dragons, almost anyone with a touch of dragon blood has been dragged into the dream world by Ysera. So many eyes are staring at me, determined to kill me. And to be honest, the reward Ysera offered, even I'm a little tempted."
He paused, then looked at Selene with some concern. "Selene, please don't try to trick me. Are you sure these guys are like paramecium to me in the dream world, and can't cause any trouble?"
Selene nodded confidently and said, "Of course, you can rest assured about this. In this dream world, the strength of your soul gives you an absolute advantage."
Merlin sighed helplessly and said, "Ah, this is really a troublesome thing."
As he spoke, he leaned back subconsciously, and at this moment, a chair appeared under his butt.
Merlin was stunned for a moment, then looked down at the chair that had appeared out of nowhere beneath him, his face filled with confusion. "Was there a chair here before?"
Selene smiled and explained, "This is your dream world. You are like the creator here. As long as you think of something, it will appear."
"Is this true? So interesting?"
A hint of surprise flashed in Merlin's eyes, and then he waved his hand. The originally pale world instantly turned into a lush green meadow. The breeze blew, the grass swayed gently, and the air was filled with a fresh fragrance.
He was excited and waved his hands again. In the blink of an eye, the grassland turned into a vast desert, with yellow sand flying all over the sky and the scorching sun baking the earth.
Then, his mind changed, and the scene switched to the vast universe, with twinkling stars and brilliant galaxies.
Merlin laughed excitedly. "That's interesting. Does that mean that in my dream world, I really can do anything?"
Selene nodded and quickly added, "Of course, but it will consume a lot of mental energy. Once your mental energy is insufficient, it will consume your soul power, and the thing you construct may very well be a part of your soul."
She patiently explained, "Passive dreaming is different from this 'lucid dream.' Passive dreaming consumes the essence of the connection to the world of Aize Continent, which means it consumes the will of the planet. This is because you 'accidentally' entered the projection of the world's will and came to the dream world. Lucid dreaming, on the other hand, is when you use your mind and soul to carve out a piece of your own territory within the realm of the planet's will, so naturally, it consumes your own mind and soul. This is why the 'creatures' you created have no sense of 'self.'"
