Chapter 207: Speculations about the Dream Interlayer

After putting away the "Law" that took more than three drops of ink to create, Lucian finally had time to check his other gains today.

The storage device left behind by the person who played Miss Somaya was a very simple-looking animal hide bag, which seemed to be made directly from some rough animal hide. Obvious marks of perforations and stitching could be seen on the edge of the bag, and even some uncleaned hair or subcutaneous grease could be seen in some areas.

"An animal hide that naturally contains something similar to a space magic array? ... No, it doesn't seem to have opened up a fixed space for storage, but... it simply 'shrinks' the items wrapped in it."

Lucian soon discovered the clue of this storage device. She gently untied the thin tendon that bound the animal leather bag, and when the animal leather bag was unfolded, the extremely "pocket-sized" items inside were revealed.

A large amount of dried meat, some unknown alcoholic beverage, and a large number of skeletons of creatures... Hmm, is this a battle axe? It looks like the weapon he used in battle. Lucian used his mental power to quickly sort out the player's belongings.

"Unfortunately, this player's cultivation system should be biased towards 'hunting' and 'close combat', and he has not made much progress in magic. If we can obtain his corpse for dissection, we may be able to glimpse some of the rules of the cultivation system in their world. However, judging from the items he left behind, at least they are obviously very crude in alchemy or weapon making."

Lucian thought about this, picked up a hunting knife he found in the animal skin bag, and waved it gently twice in his hand.

After the shrinking effect of the animal skin bag was removed, the hunting knife became a standard combat knife in Lucian's hand. However, to its original owner, it was just a small hunting blade used to skin and decompose prey.

The blade is made of a special purple-black stone, which seems to be a sharp slice knocked directly from a big stone. Some parts of the blade even have some irregular curves. The handle is made of two pieces of wood combined with a bundle of straw ropes, which looks rough and primitive.

However, this hunting blade has the power that is not inferior to that of a first-level wizard tool. And it relies on the extremely strong material it is made of!

"If this natural crystal stone that seems to have the effect of a cutting magic array is used in the wizard world, it can probably be used as the main material for refining magic tools by some alchemists who are good at alchemy. With a little refining, they can make a magic tool that is powerful enough for a second-level wizard to use. With other materials, there is even hope of making a powerful magic tool that can be used by a third-level wizard, right?"

Lucian couldn't help but shake his head in his heart, and had an accurate understanding of the word "waste of resources".

"But this hunting knife is quite suitable for my current situation. It has no magic fluctuations, but is sharp enough to easily cut through the human body or even metal armor. It will be very effective if used for sneak attacks or covert attacks. But it is a bit too big and needs a little repair."

Thinking of this, Lucian stretched out his hand and gently stroked the blade of the hunting knife. At the same time, a blue flame began to burn the blade under the control of his mental power.

But soon the smile on Lucian's face disappeared, because he found that the fire he created did not have any reaction to this special stone.

The stone blade still felt cold to the touch, as if the burning flame had never occurred.

"Interesting material..." Lucian gently touched the blade, but without the cooperation of some magic arrays inside the alchemy hut, he found that it was really difficult for him to handle this special stone.

After thinking for a moment, Lucian grabbed the hunting knife and swung it lightly.

Suddenly, Lucian cut off a strip of the edge of the animal hide bag, and then, under the control of his mental power, the cut animal hide strip replaced the straw rope that originally bound the wood block and the blade.

Under the effect of this special animal skin, the size of the hunting knife began to shrink rapidly. With Lucian's constant adjustments, it eventually became a small dagger that could be easily hidden inside the cuff.

“In this way... [Lula] finally has some trump cards.” Lucian nodded with satisfaction, and then he reintegrated into [Lula’s] identity, manipulating Lula to pick up the black stone dagger.

Wow—Lula's little hand waved the black stone dagger, and the dagger silently cut through the air without making any sound.

But Lucian knew that if he had not chopped the air but some blind enemy, then the blow would have been enough to cut off his arm or even his head easily, as easy and natural as cutting paper with a paper cutter.

"What a pity! It would be great if I could know which world that player came from and what kind of cultivation system he practiced..." Lucian looked at the black stone dagger in his hand and couldn't help but feel a pity. These were all items from a different world. After the death of the "player" from that world, these things became unique to Lucian, and he might not be able to obtain them for a long time.

“Hmm?” Just as Lucian was happily “unboxing” something, his ears suddenly moved, and his mental power silently extended outside the house. In Lucian’s perception, he quickly caught sight of two figures running and chasing each other on the roof.

“It looks like a conflict or a hunt between two players…” Lucian quickly collected the “stolen goods” in the house, then he quickly walked to the edge of the windowsill, hid himself behind the curtains, and quietly observed the two players who were constantly chasing each other with his naked eyes.

One of the players looked a bit like a goblin from the wizarding world, but there were some differences in the details. He was dressed very elegantly, like a nobleman outing at night; while the other player looked a bit hideous and terrifying. He had a human-like outline, but his whole body was swollen, like a corpse that had become a giant after being soaked in water.

"What exactly is the dream layer? At first I thought it was just a part of the wizarding world, but now it seems that it connects many different worlds, even some worlds that have no records in the wizarding world."

Lucian silently observed the two players' brief fight and continued escape, but his mind was thinking about some information about the dream layer.

Judging from some descriptions in the wizarding world, the dream layer connects the collective subconscious or the whole dream composed of humans and other intelligent life forms. Whenever those intelligent life forms sleep and dream, they become the cornerstone of the dream layer.

And under long-term changes and development, the dream mezzanine has gradually evolved from a completely conceptual thing into a entity... But from what Lucian saw and heard in the "real place" in the dream mezzanine, the formation of the dream mezzanine seems to have deeper secrets.

But from what Lucian had seen and heard, there were obviously deeper changes inside the dream layer. They even had a terrifying dream lord, a great being that could stand proudly in the sea of ​​stars and support the prosperity of an entire civilization...

In Lucian's speculation, it might be like the sea of ​​stars described by Count Sanasis, connecting many relatively independent worlds with their own special cultivation systems.

It’s like... a “dark area” or a “small star sea” that connects many worlds?
Lucian made random guesses in his mind, but due to the lack of information he had, these guesses could only remain at the level of speculation.

But there was one thing Lucian was certain of.

That was the secret hidden deep in the dream layer, which must involve the game between those great figures who truly stood on the sea of ​​stars. Otherwise, the great being that he had spied on before would not be in an irresistible sleep as Count Sanasis described.

After all, the only people who could influence or even harm such a great being could be powerful beings of the same level or even higher. Perhaps there was a great being from the wizarding world behind this incident...

"No, I can't keep thinking about this kind of problem!"

Lucian grabbed his head. He had just been immersed in thinking about this problem, but suddenly a palpitation or even a sense of crisis came quietly, as if reminding or warning him that if he continued to rush towards this "dead end", it would lead to unknown consequences.

He quickly closed his eyes and forced himself into a meditative state. After a long while, the horrifying sense of crisis that had made Lucian tremble gradually faded away. When Lucian opened his eyes again, his back was covered in cold sweat.

"Is this the power of the 'Master'? I didn't think about it deliberately. I don't even know their identities, names, or even specific things. It's just because I thought about it in my heart and had some thoughts that could be called 'blasphemous' that they sensed it or perceived it instinctively?"

Lucian opened his mouth and gasped like a man who had just escaped from drowning. After a long time, Lucian's mood gradually calmed down, and he went back to his identity of [Lula], and quickly got on the bed and closed his eyes.

He felt that it would take a long time for him to recover from the shock he had suffered tonight.
