Weird Regulator

Thick fog gradually rose in the forest, and the chaotic direction was lost again.

Ji Li walked vigorously through the forest, his spirit highly tense, and he was always alert to the surrounding scene.

Luo Xian's figure has long since disappeared, and he can no longer tell whether what he saw before was a dream or reality.

But judging from the current situation, it is more than 80% that Ji Li was locked into the dream world.

The call from the void still continues.

About once every five minutes, the tone, volume, and direction are almost exactly the same.

This shows that the dream world that Ji Li is trapped in should be an endless loop.

This cyclic dream seems to be continuous, but it is actually countless five minutes spliced ​​together and played continuously.

Looking up, the whole world is blocked by dense trees, and the rain in the sky continues.

Ji Li, who was in it, could only determine the cycle of the dream through those five-minute shouts.

“I don’t know much about nightmare evil objects, but as long as it’s a dream, there must be a trigger point.

If the period is five minutes, then the time period I was trapped in should be five minutes ago to the moment Luo Xian disappeared.

This trigger point should be when Luo Xian's drowned ghost image appears.

Regular attacks.

From the moment the drowned ghost was killed to when Ji Li realized he was under attack, it took exactly five minutes.

Ji Li was trapped in these five minutes, but it took the form of countless five-minute infinite loops.

It’s not hard to discover the rules; it’s hard to break them.

“Anything that’s put together has gaps, whether you can see them or not, they’re there.

The same goes for time, so as long as you find two five-minute splices, you are out of this cyclic dream.

The third personality followed Ji Li's train of thought and analyzed further.

This is also the only solution at present.

But a theory is a theory, and it's too abstract.

Time, this word is the human definition of the passage of things.

The fusion of dreams and time loops is simply the abstraction of abstractions, and its operability is too low.

Ji Li didn't say anything. He had returned to the position he was in five minutes ago.

In this very familiar forest, he saw a corpse, and the blood had flowed into a river along with the rain.

The severed arm washed along the water and was no longer a trace.

Only the half-cut head was still attached to the body, shaking in the rain.

The fact that the body still appears here shows that Ji Li's so-called five-minute splicing theory is true.

As a false illusion, it does not disappear after being cracked, but remains in place.

This further confirms its role as a five-minute cycle coordinate.

But this discovery did not make Ji Li feel excited, and he was even slightly disappointed.

In Ji Li's best expectation, the drowned ghost should not stay where he was.

It should appear at the beginning of a new five-minute period, attacking Ji Li, as the starting point of the cycle.

At the same time, it ended with a shout belonging to Luo Xian five minutes later.

This is a standard five-minute period.

But the current situation is obviously that the cycle started after Ji Li solved the drowned ghost.

From the ghost's point of view, the advantage of this is that it prevents Ji Li from directly drowning the ghost to break the cycle.

Likewise, this will make things extra complicated for Ji Li.

The third personality sighed, it seemed that things would not be so simple.

The Drowned Ghost is not part of the cycle, it is the starting point.

Then when Luo Xian calls out your name, it shouldn't be involved in the cycle, but just an ending point.

This is a good thing, at least it helps us determine the beginning and end of the cycle.

Ji Li stood next to the corpse of the drowned ghost, raised his leg and took a step forward without any hindrance.

The only thing trapped is him and time, he can still move freely in space.

But what can be expected is that once Ji Li walks into a position that threatens the dream world, he will inevitably be pulled back here.

Luo Xian's nightmare evil objects are so overbearing that the user is simply like a ghost in a dream.

If this effect is triggered by a ghost, even if there is a theoretical solution, there is almost no hope in practice.

Ji Li was immersed in the world of thinking, constantly deducing various possibilities.

But after thinking about it, the only way to break the dream cycle is as the third personality said.

Unless he could find the connection between the two loops, there was no way he could get out.

Time passed by like this, Ji Li was soaked in the heavy rain but could not think of a solution.

At this time, the third personality suddenly said:

Why would the ghost who killed Luo Xian use the nightmare evil thing on you?

Ji Li stared at the corpse not far away and replied softly:

I have an ancient bronze coffin. If Luo Xian and I fight against it, its chances of winning are not high.

The third personality pondered for a moment and then said:

Then it means that it uses nightmare evil objects to trap you in the dream.

In the real world, Luo Xian should be being chased by mother and son water ghosts at this time...

Speaking of this, Ji Li already understood what he meant and said in advance:

You mean, once the Luo Xian outside is killed by the mother and son water ghost, the crisis on my side will be over.

Yes, after all, its target is Luo Xian, and it traps you just to kill her better.

As for whether after her death, you will immediately meet the ghost who specializes in killing you, we can no longer think about it in our dreams.

The third personality always wants to do what is best for the present.

Being trapped in a dream, no ghosts can attack Ji Li anymore, which seems to be a good thing.

But Ji Li's physical body should still be sleeping in the real world. If he was really trapped and died in his dream, he would be dead as well.

You underestimate Luo Xian too much.

Ji Li slowly pulled out the opera sword from behind, and raindrops hit the paper-thin blade, making a pleasant sound.

It's almost impossible to easily kill Luo Xian, who has been famous for a long time, on a three-star recruitment mission.

I'm hiding my clumsiness. Didn't you realize that Luo Xian is also hiding?

Ji Li never expressed his opinion on this mission, silently watching the mission deteriorate step by step.

But a careful review of Luo Xian's performance in this mission also made Ji Li suspicious.

This woman, who was extremely cautious in her job as store manager, acted too casually.

She easily used the right to use the Nightmare Sin Item twice, causing the disadvantage of being unable to use the Sin Item for a very long time.

Even at this disadvantage, he made a desperate move to enter the most dangerous place in Wue Village.

You mean, it's an illusion that Luo Xian can't use sinful objects?

The third personality asked tentatively.

Ji Li held the opera sword in both hands, the smooth blade illuminated his pale face, and said softly:

True or not, false or not, in short I must leave this nightmare as soon as possible.

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly cut the artery in his left hand with a sharp sword blade, and blood immediately flowed down his wrist.

The third personality was shocked and shouted hastily:

what are you doing?

Ji Li frowned slightly, took a few steps back, and sat down against a thick tree trunk.

The blood on his wrist was flowing gurglingly, staining his entire palm red, and he said softly:

I am immune to sinful objects. Luoxian cannot implant dream seeds into me, but ghosts can.

So I am trapped in a dream because I am the seed of dreams.

Remember, I will be in a coma due to excessive blood loss later, and the dream seed will no longer work.

As a result, there will inevitably be errors in the cycle of the dream world.

At that time, you will gain control of your body, follow the path out of the dream, and return to the real world.

Ji Li's consciousness began to become drowsy. He shook his head and finally said:

Luo Xian will not abandon me. After you return to reality, help her survive and go to the wooden house at the end of the village. That is the way to survive.
