Episode 512 in Dream Land (2)
“If we continue like this, everyone will be trapped in Dream Land forever.”
“I need to get rid of the culprit as soon as possible.”
“Elimination of the culprit. Do you know how to solve it?”
“I know what I have to do.”
I had to get rid of Nirva who did all this.
To do that, I had to find out where it was.
Considering its ability and authority, it must be in the depths, the deepest part of Dreamland.
Considering that Gregorium’s corpse temporarily appeared outside, it was supposed to be easy to come and go between the middle and upper floors.
“For now, don’t move. Because joining others is the priority.”
I needed to join others and share my views.
If this place is a dream, in the end it will be difficult to solve everything on your own.
‘If it had an effect on Ladervelk, the other guys would have fallen inside.’
In preparation for such an event, an emergency escape route was made.
However, I did not think that it was free from the devil’s power.
‘Is it a priority to find Sedina and Hans Sheridan who fell first?’
Still, I seemed to be able to figure out where to go.
Because the location of the falling stars was concentrated in one place.
It was a sight that could never be seen in real life, seeing shooting stars falling from all directions as if drawing a curve on a narrow land.
However, considering that it meant a supernatural disaster situation, it was difficult to just admire the beauty.
“How much further do we have to go?”
“It’s still a long way to go to the place where the stars fall.”
“It will take quite a while to walk.”
Julia nodded.
“If you walk, you will. But aren’t we wizards?”
“Right.”
The two of them flew up using magical powers.
As I climbed to a higher place, the scenery of Dreamland came to me even more.
A place full of mysterious forests and plains.
When I looked down as I crossed it, I saw some unusual creatures that only live here.
A giant salamander raised its head from the swamp and stared at Ludger and Julia as they flew.
Seeing him sticking his tongue out, he would have been very disappointed if he had walked away.
“Are you following me better than I thought?”
Ludger didn’t take it seriously at Julia’s words, which were half teasing and admiration.
“So you seem to be doing better than usual.”
“Have you forgotten who I am and where I am?”
“Is that too?”
Dreamland was a place that could be called the home ground for Dreamwalkers.
Anything that cannot be done in reality is possible in a dream.
Dreamwalkers who roam freely in such dreams were able to show off their skills much better than in reality.
“Can you make something like wings if you put your mind to it?”
“Wings?”
“Anything you want is possible in your dreams.”
Julia’s eyes widened.
“It’s the most absurd thing I’ve ever heard. But again, I’m surprised that it’s not wrong.”
“hmm. It was just speculation, but is it really possible?”
“Not here. Because the floor is too high. The upper layer is the realm of Dreamland in earnest, but the influence of the surface layer is not small. It is a place where people’s reason is sufficiently maintained and at the same time, the influence of reality remains.”
“On the contrary, the lower you go, the greater the influence of dreams and unconsciousness.”
“That’s why Dream Walkers go through the preparation process in earnest from the middle class.”
The two people who were flying like that found a full light on the plain and landed nearby.
“Are they people?”
“It seems to have fallen on this side as well.”
These were people who had fallen a little later, and were wearing a variety of different outfits.
There were factory workers, restaurant employees, florist ladies, cleaners and drivers.
In addition, some of them were wearing clothes of quite luxurious fabric, and anyone could see that they were wealthy people.
“It seems that the entire Ledervelk has been affected.”
“This is really the worst.”
The people gathered were very perplexed as to why they were here.
In broad daylight, I wanted to turn the outside into a golden light, but I lost consciousness, and when I opened my eyes, I was here.
It was understandable that it was difficult to understand with a sober mind.
“Where the hell is this!”
“Everyone stay calm. What difference does that make?”
“You look calm now?!”
People gathered together, but it was just something that could not be helped because of the unfamiliar environment.
Most of them were already in a state of panic.
Then someone in the group spotted Julia and Rudgar.
“Who are you all?”
“Don’t be on your guard. Because we, like you, have fallen into the world of dreams.”
Julia stepped out and said.
Those who heard it seemed rather difficult to understand.
“A dream world? What is that…”
“Who is playing with this now?”
Julia sighed.
The people here are outsiders who have nothing to do with magic.
It was clear that even if I explained to them what it was like, Dreamland, they wouldn’t understand.
“All of you! Are you a wizard? Then how do you do this!”
“that’s right! A wizard wouldn’t even know how to get out of here!”
People stared at Rudger and Julia with eyes that had found hope.
Those eyes were full of anticipation, but at the same time there was also madness.
To the drowning people, the two looked like a rope.
But what if you know the truth?
Realizing that things were going badly, Julia asked Rudger quietly.
“What? It seems people are misunderstanding something.”
People who saw him asking for opinions from Rudger set the target as Rudger.
It was because she was older than Julia and had an atmosphere that made her look like a senior.
“Look at this. please let me out I will make my case clear.”
“Wizard man. Please tell me where to go quickly.”
“I have work to finish today!”
The earnest words each shouted.
However, when the number exceeds a hundred units, it becomes a ringing noise from then on.
Julia frowned at each desperately shouting voice.
People tried to plead and negotiate, but they became impatient, so they gradually became violent.
“You guys are suspicious. Could it be that you didn’t call us here?”
“I heard about it too! Wizards capture people and experiment on them.”
“Seriously, are you a warlock?”
Hostility flowed from the people.
Julia was dumbfounded by that appearance.
This side hasn’t said anything yet, but aren’t they talking about warlocks and whatnot?
In addition, even though it is said to be a warlock, far from being scared, it even glared at this side.
If you know your opponent is dangerous, shouldn’t you be more considerate?
It was hard for Julia to understand people’s overly emotional behavior.
She was intelligent and rational for her age.
I became emotional only in Sedina, but I couldn’t understand the reaction of ordinary people in other situations.
“You dirty wizards!”
“Come on, let us go!”
On the contrary, Rudger fully understood their feelings.
you’ll be upset It’s frustrating, and since I’ve landed somewhere I don’t know where, it’s going to feel helpless.
But understanding and listening to their rhetoric were two different things.
“There’s nothing I can’t say to keep listening.”
The voice that came out of Rudger’s mouth shook the people.
The muffled reverberation with magical power instantly fell into silence around them.
Even those who were about to swing their fists because of their strong emotions realized belatedly what they were trying to do and rolled up their tails.
“listen carefully. The wizards you seek have nothing to do with this incident. Rather, we are also victims of being swept away by it.”
People crouched whenever Ludger’s sullen eyes touched them.
“But it makes me feel very bad to have them accuse us of being criminals.”
People realized what they forgot.
How superior the wizards are.
And what happens if you go against the wizard’s planting in this place where there are no eyes to see.
When people finally calmed down, Julia let out a sigh of relief.
Rudger cut it off the right line before the situation got out of hand.
“Now what?”
“I’ll have to take people with me first.”
No matter what the situation was, it didn’t change that we had to head to the central area of the upper level of Dream Land.
If they continue to be left here and get killed by the nearby Dreamland creatures, the aftertaste will be bitter.
“Follow me.”
People quietly followed Ludger’s words.
Rudger had an irresistible charisma that went beyond simply showing momentum a moment ago.
Up until this point, all the panic-stricken people had kept their mouths shut and had only looked at Ludger’s back and walked.
Julia admired the strange sight.
How to calm the fears of people who are terrified so easily.
“As expected, Sensei is very good at handling people.”
“Listen as a compliment.”
“Of course it is a compliment. Look at the people who were full of complaints following them like children. Maybe that’s why you seem like the only savior to them.”
you’re a savior
Rudger snorted at the cumbersome word.
But I didn’t bother to deny or criticize it.
Even if Rudger didn’t want to, he couldn’t stop them from thinking.
how long did it take
I saw a place where many people were gathered in the distance.
“Surprisingly. I would have thought they would have their own assortment.”
Ludger admired the scenery reminiscent of a small village.
“of course. It’s the first place you hear when you come down to the upper floors of Dreamland. It’s a place where dream walkers often visit, so we made an outpost like that.”
“It’s an outpost. There was something like that in Kassar Basin.”
“We are the aid.”
Julia’s voice was filled with pride.
How dare you use the word “we” without hesitation.
Even when she quarreled with the people of the School, it was clear that Julia had an attachment to the School of Dreams.
“Still, it’s amazing. I made it to accommodate more than 1000 people, but it is already full of people outside the garage.”
“Because the number of residents in Ceorn alone exceeds that many times.”
“It’s not very good that Laddervelk’s staff came there…”
Julia glanced at people sitting down everywhere.
Most of them were out of despair because they couldn’t adapt to this unfamiliar environment.
Dream Land is an unfamiliar place even for wizards.
So it was only natural that the psychological pressure felt by those who were completely unfamiliar with magic was much greater.
As I went further inside, I saw familiar people.
The students of Seorn were gathered in the center of the village as they were the first to land in Dream Land.
“Miss Rudger!”
One of the teachers who was taking good care of the students found Rudger and came running like crazy.
“Miss Selina.”
“Mr. Rudger is also here. Are you all right?”
When Rudgar said he was fine, Selina sighed in relief and wiped her chest.
Rudger looked at the students’ condition.
Most of them looked bad, but none were seriously depressed.
It’s probably because other teachers have worked so hard.
‘But this is probably just a matter of time.’
Unless the fundamental problem is resolved, the situation is bound to get worse here.
It was the moment when I thought that we should meet and talk with other teachers.
Kururureung.
Screams erupted from everywhere along with a huge roar.
Suddenly, the people who had been sitting on the ground rose up in surprise at the violent shaking that shook the ground.
“Kyaaak!”
When Selina almost fell, Rudgar grabbed her body right away.
“Thank you.”
Selina blushed in embarrassment.
Ludgar, who helped Selina get herself in shape, asked Julia.
“Julia. Do earthquakes happen in Dreamland?”
“It can’t be. There is no way earthquakes would happen in a world without faults in the first place.”
“Then what is the situation?”
“I don’t know either.”
It was the same with Julia that was embarrassing to her heart.
“Maybe we should assume the worst.”
“Can it get any worse than this?”
“Think about it. Never before have so many people entered Dreamland. It is, in fact, an unprecedented situation.”
It will.
Excluding the Dream Walkers, only a small percentage of people who are in a deep sleep usually come to Dream Land.
But now, that number has far exceeded 10,000 units.
100,000 200,000.
That number was still growing in real time.
“Because of too many people, the upper class is under pressure.”
“Dreamland?”
“I told you. Dreamland is like a whirlpool. It’s a quagmire that gradually sinks down even if you stay still. What would happen if there were so many people gathered in such a place?”
“Does it increase the speed of being sucked in?”
Julia said confidently.
“That would be better. I really shouldn’t be thinking like this, but maybe…”
Koo Goo Goo———!!!
Before he could finish his words of concern, another earthquake occurred.
People screamed at a much louder and longer vibration than just a moment ago.
“Aww! Save me!”
“Don’t move! It’s useless to run amok here!”
“Everyone calm down!”
Crowd in panic.
Rudger discovered a strange situation going on between them.
shit.
The ground began to crack and crack.
Seeing that, before he could give a warning, the cracked ground collapsed downward as if it had collapsed.
Aaaaaa!
At least 300 people fell down with the collapsed ground.
Into the deep abyss where nothing but pitch-black darkness can be seen.
