Transformed into a heartthrob's simp, every day is a battleground.

Chapter 234 The Audacious Ants

Qin Ke knew that Yan Xun was probably too lazy to repeat the principle of this place, so he gave a brief explanation.

When Wen Yuanzheng heard that those things had appeared because of his own ideas, he felt a little embarrassed.

"When did you arrive?" He was afraid that the two of them had arrived long ago.

"Just now," Qin Ke said with a smile, "I saw someone up ahead who looked a lot like me..."

"He's a head shorter than me, and I felt something was off, so I pulled Yan Xun closer to take a look."

Qin Ke said casually, "Didn't you notice that the height of the people around you seems a bit off?"

Wen Yuan was puzzled. "Really?"

He remembered that the old man had said the same thing.

But then he glanced at Yan Xun and Qin Ke, who were about ten meters away from him, and said, "I think we're about the same height."

Qin Ke smiled, but the next second a sharp thorn fell from Wen Yuanzheng's back, grazing his back and pinning his shoe to the ground.

Wen Yuanzheng yelled "Damn it!" and hurriedly scrambled forward a few steps, but his shoes were still pinned to the ground by spikes, making him look extremely disheveled.

"What's going on with this?" Wen Yuan was struggling to pull the shoe out. "Is this your ability?" he asked Qin Ke.

"Of course not," Qin Ke lied through his teeth. "It's probably a trap here."

But you just said that everything here is shaped by the ideas in our heads.

Wen Yuanzheng didn't think he would ever think of wearing something that would allow him to cross-dress. He looked at Yan Xun again... and couldn't help but lower his head, "It's my fault."

He apologized to Yan Xun, "I shouldn't have left you behind and ran into the ice crevice by myself."

"I was truly possessed by an evil spirit at the time..."

“There are flies buzzing around, and they’re quite loud.” Yan Xun waved his hand. “Did you hear that?” he asked Qin Ke.

Qin Ke shook his head, "I didn't hear it."

He then asked Wen Yuanzheng, "Did you hear a fly buzzing just now?"

If they had just entered the instance, Wen Yuanzheng would most likely have already started arguing with Yan Xun and the other person. But now he knows he is in the wrong and can only swallow his anger—of course, the biggest reason is that the old man won't tell him where the blue gold is.

So they decided to rely on Yan Xun; maybe he could find out where Lan Jin was.

Besides, it's just a hidden mission; we can just give it to Yan Xun.

He's someone who has the chance to become a god; all he needs to do is swallow the blue gold.

Wen Yuanzheng convinced himself again and pretended not to hear Yan Xun's sarcasm, "I didn't hear it."

Worried that Yan Xun would continue, he quickly changed the subject, "Did you see the others?"

Qin Ke answered honestly, "I saw the bearded man's henchman."

"Why don't we hurry up and look for them?"

"I saw you running so fast when you got off the ship, I thought you knew where Lan Jin was." Yan Xun looked at Wen Yuanzheng, "You didn't know?"

Wen Yuanzheng was speechless. "I don't know."

"Then why are you running so fast?" Yan Xun was actually a little suspicious.

Wen Yuanzheng dared not admit that he had been blinded by the old man's promise of a chance to become a god—plus, seeing Yan Xun complete mission 2, he worried that he wouldn't get the rewards for the hidden mission either, and that entering the dungeon would be a waste of time, so Wen Yuanzheng decided to sneak away.

"I really don't know where it is." Wen Yuan was about to swear to the heavens, "If I'm lying, may lightning strike me dead."

"You're dreaming," Yan Xun said.

Wen Yuanzheng has already gotten involved with those things, yet he still dreams of a good end, being struck by lightning and killed?

Qin Ke naturally understood Yan Xun's implied meaning, while Wen Yuanzheng assumed that Yan Xun was still saying things out of anger and dared not continue to speak, fearing that Yan Xun would continue to criticize him.

As they were talking, the henchmen finally came over.

The other person didn't know how many times they tried, hypnotizing themselves into believing they really wanted to find Wen Yuanzheng, before they were finally sent to Wen Yuanzheng's side.

The follower breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Yan Xun and Qin Ke there as well.

"How could you just run away like that?" he complained.

Yan Xun was also puzzled, not understanding whether these people thought of him as a mother hen or a kindergarten teacher. No matter what they did, they wanted to hold his hand as if they were afraid that Yan Xun would abandon them.

Yan Xun ignored him, preoccupied with wondering why Gu Jia and Gao Wen hadn't yet escaped the first layer of the dream world.

After entering Wen Yuanzheng's dream, he discovered that the dream could be divided into several layers.

The first layer is the shallow dream, the one that everyone experiences. In this dream, no one knows they are dreaming.

The second layer is the world after you realize you are dreaming—equivalent to being in a dream and realizing you are dreaming—this is where he and Qin Ke meet, and also where the follower arrives.

As for where they are now, Yan Xun figured it should also belong to the second layer of the dream world.

Because all four people here are fully aware that they are dreaming.

Simply put, he and Qin Ke are from the second layer of the dream world, and they came to the first layer where Wen Yuanzheng is.

Because they exposed that Wen Yuan was dreaming, they pulled Wen Yuan from the first level to the second level.

The reason Gao Wen and the others were nowhere to be seen was because they were still on the first floor. Unless Yan Xun took the initiative to look for them, they would not be able to meet for the time being.

Yan Xun looked at the environment in front of him and blinked... He saw that the original passage had turned back into the huge underground building where he had first appeared.

When Wen Yuanzheng saw that the scene had changed, he thought that something had gone wrong again and looked around as if facing a formidable enemy.

The follower looked completely bewildered; he certainly recognized this as the territory where he had first met Yan Xun.

Qin Ke looked at the surrounding pillars and the familiar boulder, then leaned closer to Yan Xun and whispered, "Have you thought of a way to find Lan Jin?"

"I have some ideas," Yan Xun said.

Since dreams can be divided into several layers, where would the most precious blue gold, which controls the power of dreams, be hidden?

It was definitely not in the ice crevice in reality, but in the deepest part of His dream.

Yan Xun felt that the greatest benefit of this dream was that things he believed to be real and that would actually happen would appear in his dream.

Yan Xun patted the stone pillar next to him, "What do you think about building a slide here?"

"Slipping into the deepest part of the dream, the topic around Lan Jin?" Qin Ke immediately understood Yan Xun's meaning.

"But if Blue Gold really is here..."

The nightmare will awaken as soon as they touch the blue gold.

“Then it will just be a race against time,” Yan Xun said, patting the stone pillar as he addressed his henchman and Wen Yuanzheng. “I have a way to find Blue Gold.”

"but……"

He deliberately dragged out the sound.

The two of them immediately looked over, "But what!"

“But,” Yan Xun patted the stone pillar, “you might die.”

The reason they can talk freely here while the Nightmare hasn't woken up is because human players are too insignificant to the Nightmare.

Would you care what a few ants are whispering in your ear?

But if these ants try to open your vault, or even get their hands on the gold, even if you think the ants are ridiculous and weak, you will still wake up immediately and crush these audacious ants.
