Chapter 1004 Seventy-one. Dreaming again

  In front of the weird circle, Silver Cross Sloan and Mildred Hampley paid attention to Lu Li who was standing in front of the wooden house.

  Silver Cross Sloan opened his palms, and the straw doll in his palms stood in the same posture as Lu Li.

   He quietly felt the emotions emanating from the straw doll.

   sparsely set foot in the labyrinth-like confusion, the warmth of the faint afternoon sun, and the sweetness of a few delicate pastries.

   After a short pause, the straw doll suddenly curled up, trembling and suffering, and hugged itself into a grass ball. Melting bitterness poured into Silver Cross Sloan's mind.

   "It seems to be different from what we imagined, struggle or despair?" asked Mildred Hampley.

   "It's pain..." Silver Cross Sloan looked at Lu Li in front of the wooden house in disbelief: "Why pain?"

  Lu Li's four cursed titles [Lighthouse], [Bloodstainer], [Tree Whisperer], and [Dreamer] do not contain painful emotions.

"hold on--"

   Mildred Hampley's voice fell, and Lu Li, who was still in front of the wooden house, resumed his movements.

  Silver Cross Sloan sighed: "It's our turn to play."

  Lu Li had a quiet expression and watched them approach.

   "The Emerald Dream, the serial potion that imitates the Emerald Dream." Silver Cross Sloan explained that the straw doll in the palm has been cut off with Lu Li's awakening. "It will make you experience moments that are still fresh in your memory... Forgive our recklessness, knowing that this is a dream will not work."

   "It doesn't work even now." Mildred Hampley smiled wryly.

  The ending was different from what they envisioned. Lu Li did have mood swings, but it wasn't the mood he wanted corresponding to the four cursed titles.

   "Is that the real world?" Lu Li asked.

   "No...just a dream. If you want, we—"

"no need."

   Lu Li calmly interrupted Silver Cross Sloan's suggestion. Although it is regrettable that it stopped abruptly, it is a meaningless chat to console after all.

   "It's not going to work... we'll have to find another way." Mildred Hampley thought.

   Stimulation or Amnesia?

  The former is useless to many, but to Lu Li, who is indifferent to emotion and neither crying nor laughing. The latter side effect is too great, they dare not apply it to Lu Li.

"die."

  Silver Cross Sloan whispered slowly.

   "In addition to emotions, only death can force a cursed title to awaken."

   The stunned Mildred Hampley was about to retort, when he saw Silver Cross Sloan glancing at him vaguely. He understood the old friend's inner thoughts, and hesitantly echoed: "I have no opinion."

   "Deal with the prey first. If they die, they will lose."

  Silver Cross Sloan took out his weapon, and Lu Li, who remained silent, came to the fence.

   There is no accident in the "hunting" process. As a silver crossbow with straight power, its lethality is trustworthy.

   However, when he was hunting the penultimate cicada chrysalis, Lu Li paused for a while.

   "What's the matter?" asked the silver cross Sloan, who carefully observed Lu Li.

   "It was human."

  Lu Li looked at the mucus flowing along the crossbow hole: "I will see the weird moments of death that I killed with my own hands, only the weirdness that was once a human being."

   "Don't blame yourself, it's a relief for them..."

  Silver Cross Sloan and Mildred Hampley looked at each other, the latter said.

   A few lambs to be slaughtered brought less than half of the humanity, and Lu Li was still some distance away from 32.

   "If you use death to force the curse of the title to awaken, the March Tournament is a good opportunity." Silver Cross Sloan said to Lu Li who returned the silver crossbow.

   "Does it have anything to do with the Top Ten Tournament?" Lu Li asked.

   "The March Tournament is the Top Ten Tournament. We are used to calling it the March Tournament because the participating forces have been increasing." Silver Cross Sloan said. "In the beginning, the March Competition was just a comparison between the upper and lower ranks of the Giant Tree Academy. Later, the five major knights joined one after another, the Midnight City Noble Council joined, and the Khorne Violent Gods joined. The power became more and more, and it became more and more bloated... …”

   It is obviously not a good idea to have more than a dozen forces fighting, especially some of the forces are obviously stronger, such as the Midnight City Noble Council, Khorne Berserk Pantheon.

   It is not equal for the Giant Tree Academy to be divided into two or the Knights to be divided into five.

   So a few years ago, the rules of the March Tournament were changed, the Giant Tree Academy was no longer divided into upper and lower layers, the five knights were united, and the noble council was no longer limited to Midnight City, but also to young players.

   Up to now, the forces that have stably participated in the annual March hegemony are: Giant Tree Academy; Five Knights Order; Noble Council; Khorne Rampage God System; Conspiracy Spider Web God System; Midnight Lady Church; Bloodline Family Alliance.

  The old sewer front that joined in the last issue may continue to participate this year.

   And the external announcement of the top ten competition means that there are two unknown forces joining.

   "I know to a limited extent that one of the new additions is a pantheon," said Mildred Hampley.

   "Midnight Lady Church will also attend?"

   "Yes, the Midnight Lady Church has been participating in the March Tournament for five years, but they always send the fewest people..."

  As the controller of the late night city and the foundation of human civilization, the late night city became even more prominent after the loss of the Wiener Unfrozen Harbor.

  If Lu Li did not appear, people would place the Walking Light of Hope title on the city of late night.

  Although neither the Midnight City nor the Midnight Lady Church no longer need to be honored.

   "One more month, I can't wait that long."

   And there's no need to compete in a top ten tournament to get close to death - death is everywhere outside of Late Night City, and even outside of Giant Tree Academy.

  Lu Li thought of another thing: "Is the Emerald Dream related to the Emerald Dream?"

   "It is said that it was made by capturing the edge of the Emerald Dream..." Mildred Hampley thought of the rumor: Lu Li's cursed title of "Lighthouse" stemmed from breaking away from the Emerald Dream.

  Silver Cross Sloan also thought of this: "Contact with the existence that bestows the cursed title does have the potential to unleash the power... Hampley."

   "I have a spare potion."

   Although the Emerald Dream Pharmacy Sequence is only No. 23, it is as scarce as the top 10 Pharmacy in the sequence because of the expensive materials.

   Lu Li did not let Lu Li take the second Emerald Dream potion. Mildred Hampley retrieved the Emerald Dream, a potion that was flowing with a dreamy light blue streamer.

   "What are its side effects?" Lu Li asked.

   "Hardly, but it's frustrating..." Silver Cross Sloan said.

  The Emerald Dream is a real dream. It is like a cruel executioner, which will cut off the connection with the dream at the moment when you are about to meet the beautiful moment.

  Night dreams are hard to wake up, and sweet dreams will be shattered when they come——

   Before Lu Li took the second bottle of Emerald Dream Potion, Silver Cross Sloan let Lu Li feel the dream itself. If you can, try to unleash the power of the title in your dreams, even if nothing works.

  Lu Li nodded quietly and swallowed the jade dream.

   A sweet hotbed awaits his sleep.
