Chapter 2866: Chapter 2861: Listening to the Voice of the Sea

"But it looks like he was still stopped."

Resentment and grief as if weeping blood.

Yet as followers of the orthodoxy, both listeners were undoubtedly accustomed to witnessing unwillingness, Fu Qian just shook his head, casually revealing the heartbreaking truth.

No matter how much torment Herbert suffered due to his ultimate devotion, it likely had no effect.

The Progenitor of the Bloodline Clan fell in the end, at most gaining some realization near his demise.

"So what’s intriguing here is the attitude of the King of Nightmare."

Casually echoing, Patch also provided the reason for mentioning that particular individual.

Did the King of Nightmare have a hand in Annalise’s downfall?

It does indeed sound plausible.

Don’t forget from the warehouse’s given task summary, that individual was truly obsessed with dreams all along, seeking guidance from within.

So much so that to say Original Moon’s guidance really is hard to explain.

"You had suspected His involvement before?"

The strangest part of the Moon History Record, Fu Qian indicated seemed to have been completed again.

Even Patch’s earlier performance matched perfectly.

When Herbert’s mental state was found troubling, even shouting "lies," Patch should have verified certain ideas related to the King of Nightmare.

Even if this couldn’t go further, this journey already yielded harvest.

At this point, if I can’t provide more, stopping here wouldn’t matter.

In other words, since more has been provided now, Patch certainly doesn’t intend to stop here.

"Yes, after all, Annalise’s predecessor was rumored to be equally obsessed with dreams."

As evidence for Fu Qian’s question, Patch not only laughed, acknowledging, but even casually offered another bombshell.

...

Did the Original Moon also once obsess over dreams?

Fu Qian indicated who said scientific research is useless, without everyday preparations, how could one hear such fascinating things today.

And with a simple sentence, the truth of the Moon belief’s change seemed even more remarkable.

"The oracle designating Annalise as her reincarnation seems odd, do you think there might be influence from the King of Nightmare?"

Fu Qian blinked, confirming Patch’s curiosity, which was certainly also his own curiosity.

"Heh... Who knows? That’s also a question I hope you can answer."

Patch slyly evaded, without responding directly.

But one thing was confirmed, and that is certainly the purpose of Him providing this intelligence.

"There’s only ten minutes left, seems he really can’t tell us more."

Even imitating Fu Qian, Patch instantly issued a similar fifty-minutes passed reminder.

"How is this enough for twenty minutes? Your biological clock has issues."

Fu Qian listened with a furrowed brow.

A while ago after the time shortened, there was still half an hour left.

"Because I lied, fearing you’d be too anxious."

Patch then laughed eerily, honestly showing his dishonesty.

Sounded as if preparing to let Fu Qian unconsciously end this divine dream journey.

"Really? Why do I also feel you might be worried I’m not anxious now?"

Fu Qian wasn’t buying it.

The brother Patch roamed the world relying not just on innate divine power, he was always skilled at misleading people.

Since he lied about time, how to be sure it was earlier lies not now?

In fact, far more than just ten minutes left, consciously motivating his subjective initiative by saying so?

"Well, seems it indeed isn’t easy to prove..."

As it turns out, he knew he had a notorious reputation, Patch smirked saying truly hard to self-prove.

"I think rumors are true, Original Moon indeed showed interest in dreams."

Though Fu Qian didn’t dwell on such trivial matters, he instantly offered a judgment.

...

"What’s your reasoning?"

Being bold in making judgments doesn’t mean professionals can’t be questioned.

Patch was momentarily stunned.

"Not sure how you people perceive it, but from my mortal experience, dreaming indeed feels enjoyable.

"In my view, engaging more in such activities helps you comprehend life."

Fu Qian’s reason seemed absurd, despite coming from experience.

"Oh? How to comprehend?"

Patch wasn’t annoyed, even pursued the roots of it.

"How about listening to the sound of waves surging?"

Fu Qian certainly wouldn’t give dull suggestions like role-playing, appearances can play roles, attitudes never do.

Even in dreams, superior beings are inevitably condescending.

"Umm... Didn’t expect an outsider to discover this first."

And though it was an unserious answer, Patch’s expression oddly turned a little more serious, his tone carrying some sentiment.

"Indeed, while the King of Nightmare might be weak, he undeniably has an advantage all superiors lack, which is closeness to the Sea of Souls."

...

Exactly.

At that moment, Fu Qian sighed inwardly, feeling an important node of the supernatural system was unlocked.

Of course, it’s not that I, Chai, am inherently useful, haven’t you seen how weak God of Hubbub Hamadus is.

The emphasis on the King of Nightmare arises because of longstanding research gains.

Initially during Academy days, Su Gao collaborated in three Sea of Souls experiments.

No matter the method, as an outsider every dive failed.

The conclusion was, the Sea of Souls, converging thoughts of intelligent beings in the Bookstore World, naturally repels outsiders.

Later, with volunteer Dragon Girl Sunny’s help, further verifying the Sea of Souls also repels deity including those they developed as Oath Takers.

Then Lord Stomach, Father’s Amnion even displayed firsthand how difficult it is for a superior to leave a mark in the Sea of Souls.

Results shown during the recently completed Demon Mountain task, the warehouse explicitly mentioned the darkness within numerous patients originating from the sinister sediment of the Sea of Souls.

Annalise’s divine dream seemingly didn’t have an absolute barrier with the Sea of Souls?

Such boundary-crossing phenomenon aroused Fu Qian’s curiosity immediately.

Thus the function of Truth Note also became nuanced.

Since the entire Demon Mountain is rooted in Truth Note, does it signify its potential linkage to the Sea of Souls?

Fu Qian’s consistent speculation is that the dream realm is particularly unique, closer to the Sea of Souls.

At least two reasons, first within Akons, ordinary people directly accessed that special place via dreams.

Second, Su Gao directly entered the Sea of Souls through dreams.

Which is why previously he said "listen to the sound of the sea."

Patch didn’t disappoint, confirming this speculation, even aiding in solving the crucial technical node—it’s because of the King of Nightmare as an intermediary.
