Encyclopedia of Feanor Continent

Although the tribe of barbarians has lived in the ice sheet area for a long time, they still retain many ancient living habits left over from the primitive tribe period. In the animal skin tents that were disassembled and taken away, barbarians no longer need to move around, and the tents no longer consider the issue of convenience for disassembly. Fur is used for warmth.

There is no pasture on the Parsons Plateau, and the savages have long learned to use hunting and fishing to replace their past grazing life, but they still raise some moose and goats, and use moose milk to make cheese and milk wine. -- "Encyclopedia of Fei Nuo Continental Customs"

Rafazi was silent for a moment before opening his mouth: "When did you find out?"

Evandel rubbed the rust on the twisted iron fence with his fingers: "It is indeed a very realistic dream, but you are used to the chaotic and illogical world, so there are too many unreasonable things in the nightmares you make up, every time I start Doubting and thinking about these things that are wrong will be immediately interrupted by a bigger crisis, but in the end I will always survive by luck, and after a lot of times, I understand that all this is not a coincidence at all.”

"You are indeed a smart person." The Nightmare Lord who still maintains the image of Rafazi said, "I am willing to give you another chance to become my servant. You can enjoy the supreme power in this dream world. Get everything you want, and even become the master of the entire multiverse, and you only need to leave the dreamland occasionally to hunt new 'food' for me."

"You tortured me and my companions like that, and you still expect me to bow down to you?" Evandel smiled, "I still choose to destroy you."

"This decision is very unwise." The Nightmare Lord said, "In the dreamland, I am the absolute master, and you have no chance of winning."

Knowing that everything was just a dream, Avondel has regained his usual calmness and composure: "Is that so? You can't directly harm my body, expecting to kill me just by hypnosis, hallucinations, psychological hints, etc. Really Possess a masculine self-confidence."

"Arrogant human beings, you don't understand the power of illusions at all." The Nightmare Lord no longer tried to persuade him, but immediately launched a mental attack on him, and all the surrounding scenes disappeared. Evandel held his head, countless The terrible hallucinations of his imagination hit his brain, even if he closed his eyes and blocked his ears, he couldn't escape for a moment.

It would not take long for ordinary people to go crazy after receiving such a mental attack, but Evandel remained sober all the time, and even sneered: "Arrogant void creature, it seems that you don't know a The basic skills that mages possess are to fight against hypnosis and hallucinations."

This invisible and silent spiritual contest is more dangerous than a real fight with real swords and guns. The tenacity of the Nightmare Lord is far beyond Evandel's imagination. And his companions, thinking that if he lost, they would be trapped in endless nightmares until they were tortured to death.

He gritted his teeth and withstood round after round of mental attacks that made life worse than death, until the Nightmare Lord's strength became weaker and weaker.

After Palos and others woke up from their respective nightmares, they didn't understand what happened for a while. They were still in the independent space of the necromancer Nick. It seems that it has not moved, and it is already dead. There is no crimson self-explosive magic circle on the ground, only the magic circle drawn by Evandel to absorb the power of the Nightmare Lord.

Now that the magic circle has completed its mission, the magic dust has turned into a black and gray color, and Evandel is kneeling in the center of the magic circle, the golden runes on his hands are shining, looking exhausted.

"Evandel?" Palos, who suddenly woke up from the nightmare, was still a little confused about the situation, and called out in confusion. Evandel looked back at him, and stood up forcefully.

Palos hurried over to help him, and the mage said weakly: "I defeated it..."

"You mean the Lord of Nightmares? Then everything just now..." Geer looked at Diaya who was sitting up in a daze, as if he couldn't believe that the daughter in front of him was real, and carefully reached out to touch her, and then hugged her. Immediately, Daya began to cry with snot and tears, "It's true! What happened just now was a nightmare! It's great!"

With the help of Palos, Evandel went to the entrance of the space, activated the rune at the entrance, and they finally returned to the previous ice lake.

Natalie immediately jumped up screaming, surrounded by many members of the nearby barbarian tribes, or the barbarian men of the "Watcher". Natalie, who was left in the camp, lost contact with her master, hurriedly They went to ask for help nearby, but the barbarians followed the bat to the icy lake, but only saw the traces left by them, and couldn't see a single figure. When they were at a loss, they appeared out of thin air.

The savages crowded around and asked Geer and Daya what was going on. Amidst the noisy conversation, the exhausted Evandel leaned softly in Palos's arms, and finally passed out with peace of mind. past.

When Evandel woke up again, he was already lying in the warm bed. It was night, and the stars could be seen through the small hole on the top of the tent. A charcoal brazier was lit near the bed, and the soft fire light illuminated the The whole tent.

Palos was sleeping next to Evandel in his single clothes. He didn't wake up when Evandel squirmed and turned around. He just stretched out his arms and patted the mage in his sleep, murmuring something vaguely.

Many times when Avondel didn't sleep well or had nightmares, Palos held him in his arms to comfort him gently, which had almost become an instinct.

Maybe it's because in the warm bed, when being hugged by the lover, the heart will become softer. Evandel suddenly felt that he should treat Palos better, although the mage has encountered many loves in his long life. He was a person who loved so much that he threw all promises aside when he broke up, but this was not Palos' fault. Maybe he shouldn't go to Palos with the feeling of breaking up sooner or later based on past experience. get along.

Even if the relationship doesn't last long in the end, it doesn't matter, he is used to it.

Evandel sighed softly, unexpectedly such a slight movement woke Palos up.

"...Evandel, you finally woke up?" Palos said, "Natalie said you were just too tired, let us find a quiet and warm place for you to rest, and then you have been sleeping since the afternoon, How do you feel better, do you want to get up and eat something?"

Evandel shook his head: "No appetite."

"Then I'll pour you something to drink." Palos stood up with his clothes on, and poured a bowl of warm milk wine from the kettle on the brazier. Going back to bed, he took the cloak and put it on Avondel's shoulders.

Evandel took a few sips and stopped to rest. He relaxed and leaned back on Palos' chest: "This is the first time I have fought against a void creature that has no entity. If there is a chance, I really want to study them.”

"We didn't help at all this time. Fortunately, you won in the end." Palos pulled the animal skin blanket to cover him tightly.

Evandel took another sip of milk wine, took a breath and said: "I have a question, when I was trapped by the Nightmare Lord in that labyrinth where I can't see anything, are you guys by my side, or are you talking about everything?" Is it all just an illusion created by the Nightmare Lord?"

"I also had nightmares about the maze," Palos said. "I also checked with a few other people, and I can confirm that we were together at the beginning, and then everyone was trapped in their own space. In my nightmares--when we dreamed that Geer disappeared, Geer dreamed that you went mad and made his daughter a material for necromancy; Daya dreamed that we were captured by a whole group of giant spiders The lair made food reserves, and she watched us being eaten one by one, not knowing when it would be her turn; Alkai dreamed that he rushed over to deal with the monster, was swallowed by the monster, and fell into a huge stomach bag, only Fumbling around in bones and acid; Phils dreamed that we were all dead after falling into an underground cave, and he was the only one who continued to be hunted by monsters."

Evandel really didn't want to recall that nightmare, but also felt that it also contained some very important content: "...I dreamed that you hid me in the crevice of the rock, and went to resist the monster by yourself, and was eaten by it."

"My dream has been the same as yours up to here, except that I dreamed that I killed the monster and I was seriously injured, and then we fell into the siege of Rafazi and mage stalkers, and they captured you, Tortured you cruelly in front of me." Palos grabbed his finger and kissed it on his lips, and said with lingering fear, "...Fortunately, all of that was just a nightmare."

"Then what about the previous dream, when I found you, you were put on trial by the Holy See in the square, is that really you?"

Palos nodded, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed again: "...It was me, you saved me, and then we went to save Alkai when he was a child - Alkai also remembered this dream."

"It's really you." Evandel put down the bowl and lazily retracted into the bed, "Tell me, what did you dream about before I came to save you, and why did you treat me like that?" Attitude, I really want to know."

"...That doesn't matter anymore, it's just a dream."

"The more you say that, the more I can't help being curious." Evandel put his hand into Palos' shirt, smiled and breathed steam on his face, "...tell me obediently. "
