At this moment, Paimon returned and said, "Luminous, what should we do? We can't find Hibasia anywhere outside."

It seems like we've met before! So Paimon just arrived? That means the hallucination actually started much earlier!

It turns out that Paimon in the dream was all an illusion! What a terrifying yet incredibly real dream.

So, when did you start to have the illusion that I wasn't using the "Mirror Flower, Water Moon" technique?

Everyone thought the Traveler's encounter with Paimon was a hallucination, but it turned out to be much earlier.

Wasn't that when the cucumber spirit disappeared? Did he do it? Is his ability also related to dreams? What is his relationship with the Grass God?

The readers were filled with doubts, but Nasita was thoroughly enjoying the reading.

By viewing the story from a perspective where she knew everything, Nasida understood Lin Qiu's happiness.

Seeing the puzzled looks on the faces of those around her, their eagerness to know the truth, and their sincere eyes seeking answers, Nasita seemed to understand why Lin Qiu didn't tell her the truth.

Fortunately, the readers are patient. After all, that's how reading prophecy books is; you gradually come to understand things from a state of confusion. Qiu Cheng will tell us everything.

As the traveler continues, he tries to wake Haibasha from her sweet dreams, only to find that the lunchbox he brought has fallen to the ground, spilling food everywhere.

It's better to let Paimon hold it now; it's better to have half of it than for it to fall to the ground, especially since this is a muddy place.

But it's okay, Haibasha didn't see it, right? If she didn't see it, let's pretend it never happened.

Anyway, she doesn't know when I'm feeding her. A little dirt won't hurt, guys! It's clean and hygienic!

Well, the traveler didn't do that. She woke up Hypasha and fed her the fruit from her bedside, which helped her regain her strength.

[Hypasha: "Hmm...who? Is it Tinari...ah!"]

Tinari didn't come, but the traveler did bring Tinari's bento box and Tinari's letter.

Paimon: "Hybasha, don't worry, it was Tinari who sent us to bring you food. Look, this is his letter to you."

Haibasha: You gave me the letter, but where's the food?

Don't bring up things that are hard to talk about; the food has already turned into spring mud to nourish the earth.

In the story, Haibasha thought the food brought by the traveler was just those fruits.

Actually, that's not the case. The traveler was also curious as to how she could have fainted from hunger when there was food available, so Paimon helped explain:

"These fruits weren't brought by us; they were already here when we came in."

The Mouth of God voiced everyone's doubts: "This fruit has been here all along, how did you faint from hunger?"

Don't you eat fruit?

Character Voice Lines - Sitaleee: About the Book of Prophecy

"Who said I don't like it? I clearly love these kinds of adventure stories! Do you think I only read romance novels?!"

"What I don't like is that it keeps breaking in weird places!!"

Chapter 501 Grandma said:

[Haibashi solved the case: "I understand... So, it must have been my 'neighbor' who came by before."]

The neighbor she was referring to was naturally Lanalo, and the adorable Lanalo certainly wouldn't leave Haibasha unconscious.

So he brought a lot of fruit and even stuffed some into Haibasha's mouth. As a result, when Haibasha was unconscious, the corners of her mouth were covered in juice, making her look like she had been under the influence of some kind of hypnosis app and had lost consciousness.

But then a traveler arrived midway, startling the little cucumber, who ran away—it was more like a strange plot twist.

His escape methods weren't limited to simply burying himself in the ground; he also hypnotized the traveler, giving her a dream to buy time so he could escape.

Travelers are also easily hypnotized and fall for it very easily.

However, the traveler's will was strong, the hypnosis failed, and he woke up again.

No one knew the name of this mysterious neighbor, Haibasha, except that he was likely related to the Grass God.

[Hai Basha: "Because the first time I saw him was the very day my consciousness successfully made contact with the World Tree."]

The illustration depicts a scene from a memory: Hypasha has just awakened from meditation, and in front of her is the silhouette of a Lanaro dancing.

'The sky is clear, the wind is blowing, the rain is falling, and the sun is shining~'

When Haibasha emerged from the World Tree, she saw a strange 'cucumber' wriggling near the cave entrance.

Xiangling was very familiar with this feeling; she had also seen something round and wriggling after waking up in a cave.

Haibasha curiously approached, but Lanalo didn't react until she crouched down and stared at him. Only then did he realize that Haibasha could see him.

Then Haibasha also had a dream, and when she woke up, Lanalo had already disappeared.

Most of the Sumeru people found it amazing that such creatures had been active around them all along.

It seems the children weren't lying; they really could see some amazing creatures.

As expected of the Grass God's retinue, they are so similar to the Grass God in that they can't be seen by anyone else.

But now we can see the Grass God, who is small, soft, and fragrant.

Well, you can't say things like that, or you'll get arrested by the disciplinary officials and won't be able to see the Little Grass God anymore. That wouldn't be wonderful. Seeing the Grass God is such a wonderful thing.

Just now, some people who bought books saw her hurrying to someone's house with her short legs.

Leaving aside the little grass god, why can only children see these wonderful creatures? If you think about the differences between everyone, the biggest difference seems to be whether or not they dream.

Is it really a good thing that the Sumeru people won't dream when they grow up? The Sumeru people began to have doubts.

Normally, you can't see Lanaro at all; you have to connect to the World Tree to see it. So, can the Traveler see it because they've connected to the World Tree, or because they're like a child with a childlike heart?

It's hard to say, because the traveler seems to have met both conditions, and the highly inspired traveler can always see things that ordinary people cannot.

Is it really true that they're XX's dog? They can see things that others can't (crossed out).

Well, cute Yingmei isn't a dog; she just has a sensitive constitution and is a genius.

The story clearly states that she was already a genius for connecting to the World Tree after smelling that incense for three years. And the Traveler? Instantly!

This terrifying inspiration is truly horrifying; most geniuses would be ashamed of it. It is truly a case of a genius being wasted if one does not know the traveler.

Incidentally, Hypasha belongs to the Psychological School of the Church, and her studies focus on the stars and destiny, which is Mona's area of ​​expertise.

Well, do all of you who study the stars like to call yourselves geniuses?

However, on the other hand, Hypasha's research into the starry sky relies entirely on connecting to the World Tree to acquire knowledge, which is something Mona simply cannot compare to.

Mona once said something similar to Haibasha's: the starry sky is too mysterious, with too many unsolved mysteries.

Therefore, encountering setbacks while studying the starry sky can be seen as a form of spiritual practice.

When faced with these 'walls,' Mona's choice was to confront them directly and 'break through' them.

However, Hibasha's choice is to directly search for the answer, which leaves the scholar confused when he cannot connect to the World Tree.

This can be said to be a common problem among the Sumeru people: when faced with a problem, they choose to seek help from the void and the World Tree, instead of trying to solve it themselves like scholars from other countries.

This is not a good thing. As long as it's a 'circle,' it has 'walls,' and those who only search what they already know are not scholars.

A scholar is one who constantly seeks the unknown; a scholar is someone who constantly asks questions and provides answers.

This is also a drawback of the Void Device; it has rendered the scholars of the Kingdom of Wisdom unable to be called scholars!

The Sumeru people are too reliant on the void; they need a 'radical cure'.

Coincidentally, Haibasha's words in the story demonstrate the Sumeru people's dependence on the void and the World Tree.

[Hai Basha: "To be honest, I really envy your perception. Even if it meant suffering from heart palpitations and headaches for the rest of my life, I'd be willing to do it just to connect to the World Tree."]

Once this was said, everyone understood the Sumeru people's thirst for knowledge from the World Tree.

That was truly a case of "thinking about it during the day, crying at night, and dreaming of going to the capital."

However, as is well known, the Sumeru people do not dream of electric sheep, so it is difficult for them to connect to the World Tree through dreams, which is undoubtedly a contradiction.

What's even stranger is that the Sumeru people never seemed to have any doubts about this: why are dreams called foolish by the sages, yet connecting to the World Tree requires dreams?

No one questioned it, because it was what the sages told them through the void, and they wouldn't question the void.

Speaking of which, the Void Terminal 'strips' dreams away. In the story, Hybasha happens to tell the Traveler that 'the great beings of Sumeru don't dream.'

The sage told them that 'wisdom' is 'reason,' and dreams are illogical, so not dreaming is a gift from the god of wisdom.

They only truly become adults when they stop dreaming.

If even the great sage Mori has said so, then the truth must be quite different.

The Sumeru people are now starting to realize that this statement is incorrect, because they now know that the Grass God and his retinue possess dream-related abilities.

Their god, the god of wisdom, is the god who governs dreams. Are dreams really opposed to wisdom?

Obviously not, otherwise wouldn't wisdom become the enemy of the god of wisdom?

However, they are still unaware of why they cannot dream, a fact that will be revealed later in the story.

If we use the standard of Sumeru (a mythical creature believed to represent Mount Sumeru), then only children dream. Therefore, the traveler who just had a dream must be 'the traveler Yingmei, who appears adult on the outside but is exceptionally dull-witted!'

At this point, the silly Yingmei also learned some information about Sumeru through some conversation.

Character Voice Acting - Lei Movie: About Dreams

"Lin Qiu asked me if I still dream. What kind of question is that? I don't even sleep, so why would I dream?"

Chapter 502 Don't Wear Colored Glasses

After some conversation, the traveler obtained limited information from Haibasha, except that the great beings of Sumeru do not dream, and also learned about the levels of Sumeru cultivation.

"The period of wild ramblings in the forest" and "the period of perfect tranquility"—if you didn't know better, you'd think they were cultivating immortality.

Haibaxia is currently in the "Linju Crazy Talk Period," during which many scholars in Sumeru have gone mad.

Exploring the World Tree is like going online. Going crazy is like searching for something and ending up on a certain app, bearing a 'power' you can't handle, gradually going mad, and becoming a fanatical person.

Now we know why the children of Sumeru didn't wear the Void Armor; it turns out it's because minors are prohibited from accessing the internet, hence the youth mode.

Speaking of the underage Haibaxia, she also felt a bit emotional. Miaomiao Biotechnology made her dream of Miaomiao, as if she had returned to Miaomiao's childhood.

[Hai Basha: "As a child, I was so ignorant, yet fearless... Maybe dreams aren't as bad as they seem."]

Wow, look at this person, she calls herself a cute girl.

In short, after communicating with Haibasha, the traveler returned to Huacheng Guo, where some scholars were causing Tina Li 'trouble'.

The leading scholar was a wise man, belonging to the epistemological school, and studying linguistics and semiotics.

We just mentioned the cute girl, our sweet girl, the Heavenly Child Granny, the famous scholar of the Epistemology School—Falushan, also belongs to this school.

Lin Qiu drew an illustration for this sage, and he was quite distinctive in appearance, with a 'lightning bolt' shaped upper beard paired with a goatee and lower beard, making for a truly unique look.

The most outrageous thing is that the lenses of his glasses are green, making it look like he's wearing cucumber slices on his glasses. Did he think it was a waste to throw them away after applying a face mask, so he reused them?

Isn't black the symbol of your epistemological school? Why aren't you wearing sunglasses?

Honestly, won't wearing these make the three primary colors unbalanced when looking at things? Won't everything look a bit greenish?

Farusian, however, became interested and said, "This kid always likes to look at people with prejudice."

Although this was a lame joke that Farusan came up with on the spot, it was actually a reflection of her true feelings.

Because these old guys from the epistemology school often find all sorts of reasons to withhold Faroshan's funding, isn't that just 'biased viewing'?

So this lame joke is also a double entendre.

But now things are different; this guy has been arrested along with the Great Sage.

Farusan glanced at Lin Qiu and thought, "Is this how lame jokes are told? Is this the trend among young people?"

Although puns are rather lowbrow for linguistics expert Fiona, the fact that famous prophets love to say them suggests that they must be taken seriously.

Moreover, he studied prophecy, while I studied languages, so we can be said to have some similarities.

She had heard Lin Qiu tell corny jokes before during the "World's Number One Martial Arts Tournament," and even before that, she had heard Sino tell them.
