The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 237: Whose nightmare

After Annan helped Benjamin up, it was obvious that Benjamin was silent a lot.

Or maybe he has calmed down a lot?

Picking up the lamp, Benjamin continued to pull Annan forward. But he didn't look for topics anymore, he just focused on finding the way.

...Did Benjamin discover something?

Obviously at the beginning, he and Evelin never stopped talking...

Although in Annan's opinion, the topic this child picked was very awkward - he talked to Evelin about the fortress of the Necronomicon Alliance with great interest, just like talking about new military equipment with his girlfriend who was an art student. It’s been the same all afternoon...

I don’t know how the real Evelin would respond.

Just keep smiling and listen quietly?

"...Huh?"

Benjamin made a confused sound: "Why is this door open..."

The last time he came here, it seemed to be closed...?

"...What happened?"

Annan's heart tightened slightly and he asked softly: "Where is this?"

He has noticed that in front of them is his original "birth point", which is the "prison".

"I remember this...the teacher said it."

Benjamin frowned slightly and tried to remember: "This seems to be...a place where corpses are stored."

"...corpse?"

Annan was stunned.

Isn’t it a prison?

Benjamin hummed and asked worriedly: "Are you afraid? If you are, I won't watch."

"...will there be corpses inside?"

"Definitely not."

Benjamin replied: "The Yinjue Church has already been cleaned up once."

"Then...I want to see it."

Annan made a very soft voice.

Benjamin was silent for a while, and held Annan's hand a little tighter.

"Okay."

The young man Benjamin answered briefly.

He led Annan to the "prison" and raised the green fire chandelier in his hand.

It was only then that Annan finally clearly saw the environment inside the "prison"——

This is a public space similar to a public bathhouse, much larger than Annan originally imagined.

In the middle of the zigzag-shaped room, there is a low wall that was once covered with inscriptions. Now the inscriptions on it have been violently scratched out with swords. The low wall is just over a meter high, reaching just half the height of the room.

And surrounding the low wall in the middle, every two meters or so, there is a chain hanging down with a somewhat familiar "handcuff". There are about twenty such "chains and handcuffs" facilities throughout the room.

Annan's initial location was just the "position" closest to the door.

"...What is this?"

Annan asked subconsciously.

Benjamin did know what it was.

"Do you know the Half-Dead Daughter?"

Benjamin replied in a low voice: "The priests of the Pale Princess are not living people...and although they are priests, they have no place during the Pale Tide.

"Because they are both living and dead; neither living nor dead - the Pale Tide only accepts the dead to join. If they want to participate in the Pale Tide, they must first fix themselves Here."

As Benjamin said, he subconsciously walked to the shackles closest to the door, which was the shackles that cuffed Evelin's wrists in the dream.

He pointed to the shackles and explained to Annan - or "Evelin" very carefully but somewhat absentmindedly: "They will cuff their necks or wrists here, and then put their souls Release - The teacher said that half-dead girls can release their souls from their bodies. But if they leave their bodies for too long, they will never be able to return... They will no longer be half-dead. daughter, but a homeless ghost.

"And you see...there is a tiny blade here. If this iron ring is under heavy pressure and as time goes by, the blade will gradually pierce out and make them feel more and more intense pain.

"When the half-dead daughter feels the increasingly intense pain in her body, she will not linger on the pale tide, but will immediately return to her body. The body is the home of the soul."

"...is it like a clock?"

Annan asked.

He knew that in this era, there were already clocks that could tell time.

Benjamin nodded: "Yes. In fact, it is the kind of timer that can set time for a period of time... the one I showed you! It won't run like an ordinary pocket watch, but it can accurately time the time and open it loosely. When it is turned on, it will flow backwards, and it will make a dinging sound when it reaches 0:00 - it is said that transformation wizards have this thing, in order to allow experiments...well, sorry."

Realizing that he had strayed off topic again, Benjamin's conversation came to an abrupt end.

But Annan has already obtained very crucial information——

For the half-dead daughter, the body is... the home of the soul?

He immediately remembered his main mission in the dream world.

Go home...

At that moment, Annan's pupils shrank slightly.

——In the dream world, Annan will hear singing played backwards from the reflection in the lake.

——Every time he dies, he returns to reality from his dream.

——The task requires "Evelin" to keep her limbs intact in her dream.

——Completing the task of sacrifice must be completed in reality.

And...

The Pale Princess is also known as the Untied Daughter. Her priests, the Half-Dead Daughters, cannot fall in love with anyone.

Including themselves.

...Of course, including Benjamin.

Annan glanced at Benjamin subconsciously.

He probably understands.

"Evelyn" may have been dead for a while, and that so-called dream... should be the essence of the church that the half-dead girl saw after her soul left her body.

Ordinary people would become seriously ill if they saw the Pale Tide once and ran back home immediately, let alone Evelin who watched the entire dance of the Pale Princess up close like an obsession.

She was probably dead by then.

But obviously, the Pale Princess is interested in her pure soul.

Just like the Bones Guild allows the dead "Ai Lei" to be active for a while... "Evelin" may be the Pale Princess's "Ai Lei". Today, Evelin is already half a half-dead daughter. That's why she can hear the voices of the dead, why she faints from time to time, and enters another world in her dreams...

For Evelin, this is a "precognitive dream".

But she did not see the future, but entered the "real pale church" in a soul state!

So, when she smashes open the "prison door" in the soul world, the door in the real world will also open wide.

The fallen soldier statue at the door may also be because "David" in the dream violently moved it away——

Evelin suddenly asked Benjamin to accompany her to the Pale Church, probably because Benjamin had to complete the last step of her transformation into a half-dead daughter.

"Evelin" fell into the water and down the stairs again, perhaps because she instinctively refused to do this - she wanted Benjamin to leave here.

But if Benjamin really leaves here, she will not be able to be reborn as a half-dead daughter - she will not be able to follow the "Dancer under the Moon", and she will die completely after returning home.

This is why, in reality, Annan was given the task of "not being able to go home"!

Because if she gives up the sacrificial ceremony ~IndoMTL.com~ she will lose the favor of the pale princess and turn into a corpse.

This may be Evelin’s original ending.

If she really loved Benjamin, with her pure heart that could be noticed by the pale princess, she would not be willing to let Benjamin cut off her head personally.

So, the main mission that Annan got actually refers to the "next main mission".

He should have to experience the "dream world" several more times before he can get the "real" main mission that finally allowed him to leave the nightmare!

...In this case, there is only one question left.

——Whose nightmare is this?
