Lord of the Mysteries: Yao Guang

Chapter 249

"Anderson's communication skills are not bad."

Seeing that Klein would pay attention to the movements of this "new passenger" from time to time, Esther couldn't help but make such a comment, because Anderson had already started drinking with a few pirates in the shadow behind the cabin.

"What do you think?" Klein pressed down on the brim of his hat, with only indifference in his eyes.

Skylark hummed vaguely, and finally just left a sentence: "Whether he compares me with that mural on purpose or not, I don't like him saying that. I feel that he is provoking me, so I'm sorry." .”

"But you're just a bird, Norns."

Klein said so.

Esther vibrated her wings dissatisfied, and the slender wings drew an arc in the air. The lark flew away from Klein's shoulder and fell straight into the window of his bedroom.

There was no wavering in Klein's eyes, but he laughed lightly in his heart. His words seemed to be a kind of provocation.But judging from Skylark's reaction, it shouldn't be "Zoya" controlling it...

The uneasiness in Klein's heart never dissipated.

As a fortune-teller, he would not easily ignore any omens from his spiritual intuition. Such a provocative joke was just a trivial temptation of Klein.

Esther will still be dissatisfied, which is much better than the emotionless attitude of "Zoya".

It was only about three hours, because the night fell again, Klein returned to the room and lay down on the bed again.

He glanced at Esther, and Skylark also heard Cattleya's all-ship announcement, and was dragging a handkerchief to cover himself.

Compared with the cage, Esther prefers the shoulder bag she has been carrying for a long time, so after stuffing everything back, Skylark lay on it again.

Having the leisure to choose a place to sleep and entangle his feelings in small details made Klein feel more at ease about Esther's situation. It seems that the fellow villager has not been too seriously affected by "Zoya"...

Klein hesitated for a moment, and considered putting Lark back in the cage, but because the night was approaching, there was not so much time left for Klein to take action, so he had to give up this idea.

He closed his eyes, and Lark buried himself under the handkerchief.

-

Esther found that she also entered the dream, but not as a human being, but in the form of a skylark, and the white joints at the tips of her wings also appeared, which gave Esther a lot of confidence.

She looked around, it was pitch black, without any light.

But she doesn't need light to perceive the world around her, so Esther let go of the restraint on her own consciousness.

Circles of halos swayed from Lark's body, and soon formed a sphere almost like a ball of light, enveloping the dazed little bird in the middle with great momentum.

This sudden change made Esther feel weird. Her special perception did not open, but showed other forms of power.

Please, this is a bit different from what I imagined, can I still evolve in my dream?Could it be super evolution?

Esther blinked vigorously, but the halo around her was not dissipated. The gentle light made her feel motivated, and she even had the confidence to distort the dreams around her.

This sense of self-confidence is not arrogance. Esther can feel a kind of inexplicable control, just like a person knows how to bend and extend his arms, bend his fingers to grasp, and it is like the instinct that Esther feels when adapting to flying. .

This sudden ability can be euphoric or unsettling.

"Well, I'm sure this is within the scope of 'Zoya' again, and it has nothing to do with me." Esther muttered dissatisfiedly, but since she had such an advantage, she immediately thought of exploring the dream.

However, she quickly remembered Klein's previous warnings during the conversation. Klein was too aware of Esther's impromptu nonsense, so he specially reminded him of "the dream is very dangerous".

After hesitating for a while, Esther had no choice but to shelve this idea. In any case, the dream is much less threatening to her now, and it shouldn't matter if she is just looking for an exit from this place.

Thinking of this, Esther restrained most of the staggered and rolling circles around her, leaving only one of them, letting it float around her like a halo, so as to illuminate the surrounding environment.

Hey angel bird?This is so silly.I don't know where Klein is, I really want to show him this.I can still hang the halo on his head directly, bestowing the glory of Klein's destiny, and then he will become the angel Gehrman...

Putting aside these messy thoughts, Esther found a half skeleton in this black cell, covered with tooth marks of unknown creatures.

The skull and shoulder blades of the skeleton are much wider than normal people, and there is only one eye socket, which looks very deformed. Esther is more curious whether the creature that devoured the skeleton is still nearby.

If the other party can communicate, it is good, and if they cannot communicate, they will die. It is very simple.

In addition, the cell was covered with dust, but it was not so narrow that Esther felt cramped, perhaps because of the relatively small size of Skylark itself.

But to a bird, those thick black railings and heavily chained prison doors are all useless.With a light twist, Skylark flew out from the middle of the railing and landed on the aisle with less dust.

It is so quiet here that it makes ordinary people flustered, and death is the main theme of this space.

Esther was also very careful when she flapped her wings just now, and she didn't make any movement. Now she landed on the same cold and hard ground. She turned her head and looked back and forth along the two ends of the passage, but her observations did not yield any results. nothing.

There are no directions or signs either, where is this going?Pick a side?

Just when Esther's difficulty in choosing began to show, she heard a movement from a far away place. Through the control of the dream, Esther sensed some kind of raging thunder and lightning turbulence.

Not long after, there was a sound of some kind of iron door being knocked down forcefully: "Kang Dang!"

Without hesitation, Esther flapped her wings more frequently and flew towards the place where the sound of fierce collision was heard. No matter what the source was, she had to go and see.

The feeling of the thunder and lightning explosion just now reminded Esther of the many "storm" spells like Klein's stamp collection.

Soon, she heard heavy footsteps. In the dream, the humanoid creature seemed to be quite unscrupulous, and didn't care that he would be discovered by others.

Just as Esther approached the source of the sound, she was already on the edge of a hall.

She saw the back of a knight in pitch-black armor, a wooden door that flew upside down and lay on the ground for some reason, and a blue gem cane raised in another person's hand.

There seemed to be another person in the narrower room in the depths, but he was shivering shivering in a corner.

From Esther's perspective, she couldn't see the face of the person in the room at all, but the three people were scattered in a triangle, and the young man holding a cane in the middle stood very delicately, and he was vigilant in two directions around him at the same time.

The hurricane flew out of the cane layer by layer, and the blue light shone on his gold-rimmed glasses, protecting Gehrman Sparrow in it.

But the knight was constantly swinging the huge and gloomy broadsword, slashing beyond the hurricane one after another, and more and more gusts of wind turbulently blew out.

Esther flew towards the end of the room more vigorously, and the circle around her suddenly brightened.

The black-armored knight didn't seem to notice the skylark approaching behind him at all. He suddenly inhaled briefly to accumulate strength, and was slashed down by the big sword raised high. The hurricane actually made a bang.

The violent wind and waves from the two sides suddenly spread, and all the old debris piled up nearby were blown away, including Klein who was closest.

The dream was violently turbulent, and it was on the verge of collapse because of such conflicts.

People who are in a dream will naturally wake up.

-

When the sunlight outside the window disappeared and the quiet night just fell, Klein and Skylark closed their eyes and quickly fell asleep.

But less than two minutes later, Skylark opened his eyes again.

Round starbursts shone in its eyes.

Skylark tossed off the handkerchief on his body, turned back and arched into the shoulder bag that he was holding down before. After a while, it got out of it again, holding the holy emblem of the night with black light fluctuating in its mouth.

Skylark stretched its paws at Klein's long windbreaker hanging on the coat rack, and a broken safety knot flew out of it and landed in front of it.

Skylark nagged the peace knot twice, and it took the initiative to unravel into several scattered thin threads. Under Skylark's inconceivably dexterous claws, it was quickly woven into a new ring, and the holy emblem of the night was being drawn. tied on top.

Skylark put the rope around his neck and quietly observed the sleeping person on the bed.

A few seconds later, Skylark suddenly sensed something and crouched on top of the satchel again.It covered itself with the handkerchief to block the "new accessories" on its body, only a little head was exposed, and then closed its eyes.

In the dream, everything around him suddenly became blurred.

When he was blown away by the wind and waves, Klein subconsciously rolled twice, and fell off the bed with a "plop", almost falling face down on the ground.

Klein opened his eyes immediately, and his thoughts were not completely out of the conflict in the dream for a while, including the ring of light that seemed to be gradually approaching and the skylark flying towards him.

Klein subconsciously replayed what he saw just now. This was already his fighting habit, and the thoughts that flashed through his mind instantly brought him back to his senses.

He glanced over to the window, where no sunlight came in.

Oops!I have to go back to sleep quickly, the night is not over yet!

As soon as Klein braced himself, he jumped back on the bed.

When he raised his head, he glanced at the table, the lark was still covered under the handkerchief, and Esther didn't seem to wake up.

Klein felt relieved when he saw the pale yellow feather clusters exposed outside. He quickly closed his eyes and focused on the state of meditation so that he could enter the dreamland as soon as possible.

When his breathing became stable again, Skylark shook off the handkerchief on his body, got into the satchel and turned out the wooden box, and took out the almost complete layer of snake skin from inside.

Large flecks of light fell from its tufts and poured into the snake's body to fill it.

Like a blown up balloon, the snakeskin gradually swelled and turned into a three-dimensional shape, and finally withdrew its light, turning into an identical skylark—including the bare white wing tips, exactly the same as the skylark with the imprint on the opposite eye.

"Sleep, keep sleeping." Skylark said.

The puppet turned into a spot of light approached intimately, stuck it on the lark's neck and sang softly, then put the things on the table back into the satchel, lay down on it again and covered it with a handkerchief.

The puppet skylark's head fell slightly, and it seemed that it had fallen asleep peacefully, perfectly executing the "sleep" command.

Apart from the holy emblem, Skylark took nothing and flew straight to the window.

It stole the distance between itself and the window.

Feeling the coolness of the airflow under the wings, the waves of the sea beat against the ship's body softly, and the skylark let out a happy but meaningless laugh.

It twirled as it raised distance, as if stepping on an elegant ballet step, stepping into the still and blurred night.
