Indescribable cyberpunk
Chapter 477 The Dust Walker
It was dusk when I saw Leonard again.
They are receiving a new round of treatment at the stronghold of the Shuojin Chamber of Commerce.
Although Zhu Jue had already eliminated a group of people in advance, their battle still did not end easily.
In addition to the wounded before, there were a few more casualties this time. Fortunately, the personnel were intact and there were no battle casualties.
Therefore, the atmosphere was quite good. Even though they were grinning during the bandaging process, most people still had smiles on their faces.
"It seems the result is good?"
After taking the drink handed over by the chamber of commerce employee, Zhu Jue sat next to Leonard, his eyes lingering on his bandaged right arm for a moment.
"It's not a loss if I trade that bastard's life with one arm!"
Holding the wine bottle in his left hand, Leonard took a sip generously, then placed the two magic props on the table and pushed them towards Zhu Jue,
"This is the reward I promised you before. Thanks to your help this time, otherwise I don't know how it would end."
"Can you help me send it to Neil City and give it to the Chamber of Commerce there for safekeeping? I will send someone to pick it up later."
Looking through the stand-in dolls, Zhu Jue thought about using the Dream Brigade's transmission channel to send two things to Black Swan.
After all, he doesn't plan to use them now, and he won't be able to take these two things with him when he returns to the real world. If he goes the way of the Shuojin Chamber of Commerce, it will take him a week at least to get them.
"No problem. We have something to send anyway. It won't take much effort to mark it with you. In fact, we can share the transmission channel with you, as long as you agree to a few conditions."
Leonard not only did not refuse Zhu Jue's request, but instead proposed more favorable terms. After seeing the former's strength, some kind of idea inevitably came into his mind.
"Don't think about it, I won't join you."
This kind of transmission channel in the dreamland is undoubtedly a special resource, and naturally it cannot be used by outsiders at will.
Leonard proposed sharing, and the implication was nothing more than soliciting Zhu Jue.
"You are different from the gentleman. He wanted to take advantage of both sides, so he swung back and forth between us and the Dream Eaters. But now you have completely broken up with the Dream Eaters."
"Hey, Black Swan has heard you say the same reason a long time ago. It's not like you don't know the reply I asked her to give. Even if you want to persuade me again, at least find a new reason."
Interrupting Leonard's narration, Zhu Jue waved to the waiting Chamber of Commerce employee as he spoke. When the latter came over, he handed him a piece of paper and waved him away.
"Then I will change to a more practical one. According to the information we have received, the recent changes in the Dreamland have become more frequent. To put it simply, the same situation as in the real world has occurred!"
After moving his butt twice and getting closer to Zhu Jue, Leonard lowered his voice and said.
In order to recruit Zhu Jue, he also went all out and prepared to bring out some "dry goods".
"You mean the monster that is the source of mental pollution?"
Zhu Jue quickly understood what Leonard meant.
"Yes, the members of our Dreamland Brigade often travel throughout the Dreamland. In addition, they spend a large part of their time looking for items that can help the soul awaken, so they often receive some special messages."
Having said this, Leonard took another sip of wine to soothe his throat.
"First of all, you have to understand that there have always been monsters that are sources of spiritual pollution in this world, and quite a few of them overlap with those that appear in the real world, such as ghouls and shattuck birds. In fact, I have encountered shattucks selling them before. The merchants of bird eggs, and some of the dream eaters with special status or powerful strength use them as mounts. If you encounter this kind of people in the future, remember to walk around them."
"Don't go off topic and continue talking about the mutation."
As he reminded him, Zhu Jue's mind couldn't help but recall the businessman he met in the space crack in Fang Doushan five years ago.
He should be the guy with a special status that Leonard said.
Because his fighting ability is really average.
There were quite a few good things in his hands, and it also made Zhu Jue come into contact with the Dreamland for the first time at that time.
"In the past, these mental pollution source monsters, whether they were shattuck birds or ghouls, although they often appeared in some specific areas and there were many witnesses in the dreamland, no human beings had ever been mutated because of them. , maybe some people are crazy about this, but there are definitely no mutants. For this reason, we have been trying to study the reasons for this for a while, but of course, the result is nothing."
"Then what?"
"Just in the past few years, our people have discovered during their travels that monsters that are the source of mental pollution that were originally incompatible with humans have begun to consciously attack human settlements. It would be understandable if they were just single individuals. After all, what kind of monsters are there in the forest? There are all of them, but the problem is that their displayed state can no longer be simply defined by attack, it is more like aggression!"
"Tell me more about it. Are the monsters starting to get together?"
At this time, Zhu Jue's thirst for knowledge had been unknowingly aroused by Leonard, and he couldn't wait to ask.
He vaguely felt that he seemed to have grasped some key clues in Leonard's narrative.
The high-ranking priest who appeared in the dream when consulting the members of the "Zero" organization in Shenzhen and Hong Kong mentioned the end of the dreamland.
Is this a hint of what is happening everywhere now?
"Yes, we have discovered large numbers of ghouls or night demons operating in groups in other areas. Not only that, in some areas that have not yet been fully explored, we have also discovered some even more terrifying phenomena. City of Gates, have you heard of it?”
Perhaps to prove the authenticity of what he said, Leonard gave a specific example.
"A gateless city?"
Zhu Jue raised his hand and pinched the bridge of his nose to hide the surprised expression on his face.
If he hadn't been convinced that no one except the two knew about the previous conversation between Dilas and Lobelin, Zhu Jue would have even suspected that Leonard had eavesdropped on the conversation!
"It was a city in the eastern desert. About three years ago, it suddenly turned into a dead zone. Not to mention people, not even animals were left. All living things living in it disappeared. Without a trace!"
When mentioning this matter, Leonard's face looked a little gloomy, and he paused.
"We suspect that extremely special spiritual pollution source monsters have appeared in the local area, some of which are similar to the Star Color that appeared near Yecheng five years ago in the real world. You should know about Yecheng, the first city to suffer a catastrophe."
(You may not believe it, but I not only know it, I am also a personal experiencer of the Star Color Incident and the main initiator of the Yecheng Catastrophe.)
Zhu Jue cursed in his heart, but the expression on his face was well concealed. He just nodded perfunctorily to show that he knew about it.
"Have you found anything about Gateless City?"
Zhu Jue promised to help Lobelin investigate what happened that year when he was at Dilas Harbor. Now that he happened to meet a possible insider, Zhu Jue certainly couldn't let go of this opportunity.
"Of course, otherwise I wouldn't be here to mention this to you."
At this point, Leonard was not prepared to sell out. After all, they only knew a small part of the content, and the investigation in this area had actually reached a deadlock a long time ago. There were no valuable clues, but Some things still need to be emphasized,
"I can tell you some information as extra reward for your help this time, but you must promise not to disclose this information to anyone."
"I have to say that I'm starting to take a liking to your organization."
The energy of the Dream Troupe was indeed beyond Zhu Jue's expectations, and he couldn't help but praise it.
"Two years ago, the brigade organized an exploration of the Gateless City. After returning, they looked for similar descriptions in some of the information we collected internally from the dreamland and the real world based on some actual local conditions, and finally found a In this particular ancient book, we found a related description."
Leonard was obviously very impressed by Zhu Jue's compliment. It was probably due to the influence of alcohol. As soon as he got excited, he couldn't care less and said in a low voice,
"It lives in the dark frontier that transcends time and space, and rarely appears in the world. The words that call it are extremely terrifying. Not only must they not be spoken, they must not even be remembered. It is the ultimate corruption. Wherever it comes, In an instant, the surroundings will feel like several generations have passed!”
Even though it was only a fragmentary narration, Leonard still frowned and slapped his mouth in annoyance after he came back to his senses, probably because he regretted mentioning this part of the content so easily without any preparation. .
Zhu Jue, who was on the side, suddenly noticed some special energy that suddenly appeared around him. The stone bricks under his feet and the floating floating in the sun next to the door suddenly felt a little unrealistic.
It seemed that it would completely dissipate in the next second.
The conversation between the two ended abruptly. Leonard consciously made a mistake. On the one hand, he felt that with Zhu Jue's strength, there should be no problem. On the other hand, he was worried that his spirit would be damaged, so he was a little embarrassed. Zhu Jue quietly remembered. After reading this paragraph, I thought about how to get more clues from the former's mouth.
"So how are you thinking about joining us?"
After a long silence, Leonard was the first to start a new topic.
"I'll tell you the truth, it's impossible to join. I already have enough identities now, and I really don't have the heart to join other organizations. Moreover, I have very important things to do in the real world recently. I don't want to come to Dreamland this time. Will stay too long and will go back soon.”
Leonard made a good impression on Zhu Jue, so he was not prepared to use ambiguous words to prevaricate him, but chose to be frank and honest.
"But I hope to deepen cooperation with you. My Shuojin Chamber of Commerce has some abilities in Dreamland. Coupled with the space cracks, it will definitely provide you with a lot of convenience. I think you don't have time now. Wait until Dreamland. Now that the things at hand are over, how about we find a chance to talk about cooperation?"
