The Death Knell

It doesn't take long to eat, and the food in the Kingdom of Dreams tastes a bit weird. Maybe Su Ming still can't get used to this fantasy Western food.

Take the super pumpkin for example. A pumpkin is as big as a carriage. Taking a small taste with a spoon, it is so sweet that it feels like all the pores in the body are covered with honey in an instant.

The other dishes are also all sweet, and only strangulation can eat this kind of stuff.

But it seems that the Sandman can also be eaten. He still looks expressionless, but the knife and fork in his hand keeps moving. The vegetables on the table sprouted legs and tried to escape, but he grabbed them back and pressed them on the plate to cut them violently. .

If he had any thoughts or inspirations, Su Ming thought it was no wonder Sandman's skin was so white. Is this diabetes?

During the meal, the two of them chatted about something, mainly about the new God. After all, Elaine had just come to power, and the Endless Family was also in the observation stage for her. They wanted to see what the girl liked, what she hated, and whether there were any rules in her behavior. , so that it will be easier to get along with each other in the future.

When talking to Sandman, half of it depends on guessing. Dreams are so illusory, but Su Ming knows about God, so he shared the information with Sandman on the spot.

"Elaine likes to play house, and she longs for family affection; there are almost no things she hates, except for Jews. Is this understandable? It is natural that God hates Jews. As for her life pattern, it is actually not much different from humans. Every day Five days a week she goes to school in Los Angeles, and she has two days off on weekends, either playing on her phone in Lucifer’s nightclub, or having a tea party back in her new paradise.”

Speaking of which, Gotham actually has a tea party expert, that is, the Mad Hatter. In addition to being a psychology expert and a master of brainwave cybernetics, that guy is also good at making tea and making cakes.

But he is a little too crazy, and he always wants to control others. Usually, he only plays with the female psychopath codenamed "White Rabbit", and he is not very popular.

Guess who didn't get the invitation when Batman planned to marry Catwoman?

"God is not a mortal, but her dreams are like humans." Daniel nodded and expressed his gratitude for Deathstroke's information. Although he originally planned to inquire with Lucifer, the sudden incident made him a little distracted.

Now that Deathstroke has shared this information, it will save trouble. This is probably a kind of transaction. He lent the mask and was paid for the information.

This is the style of mercenaries, they settle accounts very clearly.

"Demigod, half human, that's it. In some ways, she has an easier life than Xiao Dai." Su Ming laughed, put down the knife and fork in his hand, and looked at them on the dining table. Dancing: "After all, we are young people, so we know more things to play with."

"What if the two gods are compared?" Sandman asked curiously.

"She is undoubtedly stronger. Lucifer and the giant beast both support her. She can also use female boxing when necessary. Don't underestimate external forces. They can really kill people."

With almost no thought, Su Ming's answer came right out of his mouth, as if he had already considered these things.

After the meal, Daniel went to find the missing nightmare, but Su Ming declined the housekeeper's company and asked him to continue cleaning while he went to find the mask.

Talking to the Sandman is a bit tiring. The guy's language center may have been damaged. Riddles have become a part of him. Su Ming does not hate solving riddles, but is every sentence a riddle? Then forget it.

In the corridor on the second floor of the castle, the environment here looks a little dilapidated. The main reason is that the edges of many picture frames have some paint peeling off, and the mottled things look old.

"I don't know if Lucien has cervical spondylosis." He was walking in the corridor with his hands behind his back. The sunlight outside the window turned into purple light through the window, shining on Deathstroke, and he was talking to himself.

"Huh?" The symbiote knew that it had to pretend to be stupid again.

"Look at the ceiling, it's all covered with spider webs." Su Ming raised his head, looked at the dense spider webs on the ceiling, and the spider hanging upside down to shoot a basketball, and shook his head: "He is out of sight. The place is not cleaned at all.”

There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with a cartoon spider bigger than a washbasin playing basketball. This spider is also wearing a Lakers uniform, but it's a bit cross-eyed and doesn't look very smart.

"Hey." Strangled laughed. It was indeed true. Did the host just praise him as being better than Modu?

Modu is the general manager of Kamal Taj. Except for the big library, which is managed by Hamil, he is in charge of every trivial matter in Kamal Taj, especially the environmental sanitation situation, which is called clean.

Besides, Modu is also the chief mage and the dean of academic affairs. He is also responsible for teaching magic to the apprentices.

"Every family has hard times to recite. If I hadn't reformed Modu, he might have gone astray long ago. The path to happiness now has saved him, as you know."

Su Ming shook his head and continued moving forward, while giving a thumbs up to the spider on the ceiling.

There are large floor-to-ceiling windows on one side of the corridor. The sunlight coming through each window is a different color, which makes the carpet under your feet look like a rainbow.

On the other side are the picture frames, inside which are all kinds of dreams. They are still moving. The stories that have been played out in the past are constantly being played here, and maybe they will continue to be played out forever.

There is a skull hidden behind a vase on the side. It probably belongs to Abel. After all, the murders of his brothers and Cain are performed every day in the Kingdom of Dreams, but not every time Cain can find his brother who was chopped off and sent away. Heads to bury.

Isn't there one behind this vase? It looked like they had been completely weathered for some time and had no skin left.

The Kingdom of Dreams is really interesting. Every time I come here, I can see something new. Su Ming continued to move forward with a smile, and soon came to the picture frame where the gas mask was hung.

This picture frame is empty, except for a gas mask hanging there, as if it were the theme of the story.

Deathstroke was not polite. He reached out and took off the mask. He was not in a hurry to put it on. After all, there was always a smell of irritation in it. It was best not to wear it when not in use.

"Let's go find Gou Sheng." Su Ming reached out and opened the window, preparing to jump out from the second floor. He was too lazy to go through the main entrance: "I don't know what Mimi is doing now?"

In the past, if you wanted to find the Dream of a Thousand Cats, you had to find a cat to ask someone to carry the message, but now you don't have to. You can just rely on the power of origin to sense it. The sage power is very suitable for finding people.

As he spoke, he knew what Xiaohua was doing. The cat was helping a cat deliver a baby in his dream. It looked like he had nothing to do.

Putting on the gas mask, he inhaled a little bit of the smell of the Sand of Time in the canister. As soon as he thought about it, Deathstroke directly entered the cat's dream.

I arrived at the right time, and I happened to see Thousand Cats Dream standing on a huge rock cliff, holding a newborn kitten in her paws. Those giraffes, hippopotamus and other African animals under the big rock were all bowing and saluting. It was like welcoming the future king.

But the more Su Ming watched this scene, the more familiar it became, especially the thumping drum sound as background BGM, so he complained:

"Hey, are you really not afraid of Green Corpse Han's warning?"
