Chapter 68 The Mystery (Please read on!)
Tang Zijun's mind was also in a mess. She thought to herself that she hadn't done anything, so why did the other party strike first?
Although she thought this to herself, Tang Zijun knew very well that the key to truly attracting the attention of the dream world was most likely her own silly cat.
Xiaobai's intellectual development process is full of mysteries.
Whether it's inexplicable memory loss or the colossal monster in the dream, it's impossible for this to be normal. Moreover, judging from the previous encounters, it seems that the existence of the dream world has been watching Xiaobai all along.
Qin Nan and Xiao Hui's guesses are probably correct.
When Xiaobai was awakening his intelligence, for some special reason, some being did intervene in the process and even forcibly erased some of Xiaobai's key memories.
This "existence" must be something born in the dream world, and only beings in the dream world have the ability to interfere with this kind of memory transmission based on dreams.
So here's the question.
There should be plenty of magical girls in the world, and naturally, there should be just as many spirit beasts. So why target Shiro?
What is the other party's purpose?
Or rather, what exactly makes Xiaobai different from other spirit beasts?
Tang Zijun clenched his left fist and placed it near his mouth, biting his thumbnail as he pondered this somewhat troubling question.
This was a habit he had developed before he time-traveled; he would do this whenever he encountered a problem he couldn't figure out (such as an exam).
Seeing that Tang Zijun remained silent for a long time, Chang Lei slowly shook his head.
"Although we don't know exactly what happened, getting involved in the dream world is definitely not a good thing. It used to be a place that many high-ranking officials avoided talking about."
"Perhaps your combat power is not what it used to be, but I suggest you be careful when facing those guys. The things in the dream world are not comparable to those of the heretical demons."
"How strong are those guys in combat?" Tang Zijun asked.
When Tang Zijun fought the unknown giant monster before, he felt that the opponent's level was between a low-level and high-level cadre. However, since it was his first time in the dream world, he could not judge the opponent's power system.
When he heard Tang Zijun's question, Chang Lei simply shrugged.
"I have no idea."
"Honestly, if you hadn't suddenly come to my door today, I would have almost forgotten about the dream world."
"Those guys haven't been active in the real world for a long time. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call them mythical. In fact, in the early days, a considerable number of the greedy didn't believe that the dream world was real."
Tang Zijun frowned, but remained silent.
He also understood that although this world was very similar to the blue planet in his memory, the strange beings hidden in the darkness were more complex than he had imagined.
Tang Zijun came to Chang Lei with the idea of giving it a try. He didn't have much hope at first, but the fact that the conversation had reached this point was already beyond his expectations.
The conversation was not without its gains; at least the information revealed by Chang Lei, this greedy former senior cadre, was far more important than the intelligence provided by Xiao Hui and his group.
In fact, Tang Zijun also regretted it a little. Why didn't she think to ask more questions when she kicked the God of Gluttony back then?
That guy has been around for nearly a thousand years and has killed more people than Chang Lei has ever seen. How could he possibly know something about the secrets hidden beneath the surface of reality?
Pity.
With a soft sigh, Tang Zijun placed the teacup back on the saucer and stood up from the stone chair.
Noticing Tang Zijun's movement to stand up, Chang Lei's expression also tightened, and he quickly stood up as well, his gaze subtly drifting towards Tang Zijun's waist.
Tang Zijun didn't think too much about it. He simply walked silently to the edge of the pavilion and calmly gazed at the lake in front of him.
Chang Lei was unsure of Tang Zijun's intentions and didn't know what to do.
Just as he was in a daze, he suddenly felt something flying towards him. He subconsciously raised his hand to catch it, and familiar energy immediately surged into his palm.
Looking down, it was indeed a mirror core.
The Mirror Core is the source of power for the greedy, and also the residue left after their death. Similar to Dark Crystal and Dream Stone, it has a unique effect: ordinary people will become more beautiful if they wear it for a long time.
It feels like an upgrade material that increases charm.
But for the greedy, the mirror core is the red potion that replenishes their source power.
"You, what are you doing?"
Chang Lei looked at Tang Zijun, not understanding what she wanted to do.
"Consider it a thank-you gift; I don't want to owe you a favor," Tang Zijun said calmly. "Besides, your body is almost at its last gasp, isn't it?"
Having not returned to the reverse world for a long time and not absorbed enough negative energy, Chang Lei's body is nearing its breaking point.
Let alone the combat strength of a high-ranking cadre, in his current state, he probably doesn't even qualify as an elite, not to mention that he has been living under the sun for so long.
As for that mirror core, Tang Zijun has a whole bunch of them in her fish tank.

"You want to win me over?" Chang Lei's expression was strange.
"If it were you seven years ago, I might have considered it, but as for you now," Tang Zijun turned around, "you should first calculate how much longer you can live in the sunlight."
"Don't underestimate me, Wolf Rider."
Chang Lei smiled, seemingly realizing that Tang Zijun truly had no intention of killing.
"I am Mr. Hawkes, the conman. I can even fool the sunlight."
Tang Zijun smiled and didn't expose him.
However, these words reminded Tang Zijun, and he asked casually.
"By the way, I encountered a heretical demon who wasn't afraid of sunlight, and a strange beast egg. Do you have any thoughts on that?"
"An heretic demon unafraid of sunlight?" Chang Lei paused, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes. "This is the first time I've heard of such a thing. When did this happen?"
"Regarding what happened last week, that guy's strength is average, but he was able to appear in the sunlight with the body he possessed. I have a feeling that those guys are planning something big," Tang Zijun replied.
"What I can say for sure is that the Outer Path Demons could never have possessed the ability to be unafraid of sunlight before, but it's hard to say whether they suddenly mastered some kind of special power."
Chang Lei also showed a hint of interest.
"Perhaps you think so, those idiots are really preparing to do something big, although I find it hard to imagine what kind of big plan those guys could come up with."
"However, if you could capture someone alive to help you with this matter of not being afraid of the sun, perhaps I could offer some advice."
One who is alive.
Tang Zijun nodded.
"It's nothing."
