◈ Episode 511 in Dreamland (1)
Pantos held out his arm.
Each time it was fired, an irresistible gigantic force exploded one after another at the end.
Every time the fist turned blurry, the space was distorted and a puncture sound rang out.
Alex whistled.
“I heard you’re coming back from your hometown, did you eat something good?”
Pantos, which was originally strong, is now very strong.
Even though he didn’t properly pack his weapon, he had already surpassed the level of a master.
What would happen if he carried his favorite anchor chain here?
Puffup!
The golden powder, which had not been pushed by the wind, exploded helplessly at Pantos’ fist.
However, it was an aggregate of powder, and it was not a property that could be eliminated with simple force.
On the contrary, the more he got hit, the stronger his resistance became and gradually put pressure on Owens.
“Uh, what should I do?”
Bellaluna was taken aback and didn’t know what to do.
It was not a creature, and there was nothing she could do about this strange phenomenon.
Besides, it’s already surrounded on all sides.
There was no place to escape even if I had to endure the time here.
I thought about flying through the sky with Violetta’s wind magic, but the sky was already full of dust.
“If it’s not up, go down.”
Alex grabbed the sword and spun in place.
Snap!
Following the trail of the sword, the ground was cut and sunken down in a circle.
Owens, who had fallen into an underground canal, quickly ran over it without panicking.
“First, let’s fall through the emergency exit!”
In preparation for someone’s attack or a large-scale search operation after his identity was revealed, he made a way to escape.
If you move through the escape hatch, you can get to the outside of Laddervelk, so I thought of stepping back and reorganizing the battle line.
“I’m here!”
At the end of the canal was a large steel gate.
A solid door reminiscent of a safe.
It was the entrance to the emergency passage leading out of Ledervelk.
“What about that golden smoke?”
“I’m not chasing you yet. It looks like he was ostracized.”
“Are you safe for now?”
Still, he couldn’t let his guard down, so Alex quickly pulled the lever on the steel door.
Kaga River!
The door opened with the sound of gears engaging.
What you see beyond the open door is a long passage leading to the date.
and.
“… … under. There is no answer to this.”
It was the golden smoke that filled the aisle.
Fuhuaak!
The golden smoke that had already invaded the basement swallowed up the members of Owens.

wake up.
A voice came from the darkness.
Wake up.
The echoing sound came like a wave and hit Ludger’s brain.
“Come on, get up!”
Rudger opened his eyes.
The pitch-black night sky stretched out.
And what was visible beneath it was the face of Julia Plumheart looking down this way.
“I am awake now.”
“… … .”
Rudger stood up.
Rudger, who reflexively looked around, couldn’t help but laugh.
The sky is embroidered with stars shining with all kinds of light.
And the spot where Rudger was standing was a forest full of unknown trees.
“Where are you?”
Rudger checked her condition while asking Julia.
Fortunately, there were no injuries or loss of belongings.
“I don’t know? This is Dream Land.”
“here?”
“I would rather ask. why the hell are we here? Could it be that it has nothing to do with this incident?”
“Do you remember the last thing?”
“I remember. A golden cloud came from far away, and as soon as it touched it, it fell here.”
“Me and the president are the same. We almost got to the core to find the culprit, but it was too late.”
Rudger was about to talk about Nirva, but decided against it.

There was no need to degrade the atmosphere by saying that we had to deal with the devil.
“Rather than that, this place is a little different from the Dreamland I saw.”
Dream Land, which Rudger visited, had a shallow water surface at the bottom.
It was full of mist like a lake at dawn, and the inside of the water was in the form of starlight.
“This is the upper level of Dreamland. It is probably the surface layer that Mr. Rudger saw.”
“Are you saying you came downstairs?”
If you think about it, the existence of stars in the sky might have been proof of that.
In the surface layer, starlight lay below the floor.
But now that the stars were high in the sky, it meant that Ludger had fallen deeper.
“If so, many people must have fallen here besides us.”
“If I can remember, all the students must have been swept up in it.”
Julia’s expression became serious.
“So it’s not good.”
“Are there any problems?”
“Teacher, how much do you know about Dream Land? Do you know what is here and what not to do?”
“I don’t know the details. I just heard about what was known to the public.”
“That’s the point. Even the world’s most famous teacher Ludger doesn’t know the details, how can other people be?”
Rudger didn’t understand Julia’s serious warning.
Even if Dream Land is not known, isn’t it a dream world anyway, except for the deep depths?
Ludger’s thoughts changed the moment he saw the huge shadow that arose over the unknown trees.
“elephant?”
The first impression of a huge creature was an elephant.
In fact, the long nose, big flapping ears, and large size reminded me of an elephant.
Instead, the tip of the nose is sharp, there are four ivory teeth, and the head is also pointed like a crown.
There wasn’t just one elephant.
With a slight time lag, huge silhouettes stretched over the trees one by one.
Are there creatures like that?
Just when Rudger was puzzled, Julia grabbed his hand.
“We need to get out of here!”
Rudgar followed Julia through the woods.
“What is that?”
“I’m a dream eater.”
dream eater?
Rudger glanced back as he ran.
Giant elephants pointed their long trunks toward the sky.
Its flexible nose grew much longer than it should, reaching up to the stars studded in the sky.
No matter how long your nose is, it’s enough to reach the stars in the sky, doesn’t it mean that the sky that’s spread out right now isn’t as high as it looks?
But what was important now was not that sentiment.
The Dream Eater sucked in the stars with the tip of its sharp nose.
Considering that the starlight is the dream of people who have fallen asleep, it was easy to understand why the elephants were named that way.
“Do you attack people?”
“A dream eater eats only dreams unconditionally.”
“Then isn’t it herbivorous?”
“Eating dreams and sharing herbivorous meat is funny, but there is a reason why I asked to run away.”
The reason was immediately clear.
flutter!
The ears of the dream predator who ate the dream flapped loudly.
Tiny golden powder fluttered in the fluttering ears, and at about the same time small shadows popped out of the forest.
A bird with a sharp beak flew around the Dream Eater and began to devour the powder.
“It’s a predatory bird. They devour the leftovers of the Dream Eaters instead. That’s why I said it was dangerous.”
As soon as Julia finished speaking, predatory birds moving in groups flew towards Rudger and Julia.
“I got caught!”
“What if I get caught?”
“What do you think would happen if your mind was consumed in a dream? Do you want to hear it?”
“I don’t really want to hear it.”
The speed of the predatory bird was fast.
The sight of them flying in groups was like watching a herd of piranhas floating in the sky.
Rudger, who judged that he could not escape as it was, stopped and raised his magic power.
“What will you do!”
“If you can’t get away with it, you have to fight back.”
“This is a dream! In a dream, you can cast magic as easily as you want… … !”
Before Julia could finish her words, Ludger drew the spell.
Julia’s eyes widened at the sight.
The magic spells implemented by Ludgar were so natural that nothing obstructed them.
As usual, bold and graceful.
The spell that was implemented was eventually activated as magic.
Violet electricity spread in all directions, firing intense sparks.
It became a wide-spread net, engulfing flocks of flying birds.
What a profit!
The predatory bird, which was aiming for its prey, screamed as it was burned by electricity in reverse.
The charred predatory birds fell, and the other predatory birds that were chasing after them hurriedly turned and fled.
“It’s not that strong for what I said was dangerous.”
Rudger gave a brief impression as he watched the flock of predatory birds fleeing.
Julia stared at Ludger like that with disbelief.
‘In Dream Land, it takes a considerable amount of time for even a skilled Dream Walker to use magic at a realistic level.’
Dream Land is a world where the laws of physics in reality do not apply.
Even the things that I used to do as naturally as breathing in real life were not easy in my dream.
I can’t even walk or run well, but magic is terrible.
But Rudger used magic so naturally.
Looking at the power alone, it looked like it was on the 4th tier, but it was unbelievably natural for a first-timer.
“teacher. How many times have you been here?”
“Only the surface layer has come, and the upper layer is the first.”
“But how… … .”
It was basic common sense that even if magic could be used, its power would be significantly reduced.
‘Still, that level of power to wipe out a group of predatory birds at once. It’s my first time, but I’m using magic naturally, or I’m at a low level even though I’m restricted.’
No matter which of the two, it didn’t change that Rudger was a talented person who transcended common sense.
“What’s wrong?”
“Whoa. no. She just thought it was better.”
“Looks like this forest is pretty dangerous.”
Rudger said, staring into the distance.
“Due to the recent commotion, the forest is starting to become noisy.”
“… … That’s right. Predatory birds aren’t the only dangerous creatures in this forest. Now that we have time, we need to move as far away as possible.”
“Any other people in this forest?”
“I looked for it, but couldn’t find it. Usually, people who come down to the upper floors usually gather in a specific space.”
“Is it?”
“This forest is a dangerous area located on the outskirts even on the upper floors. Mr. Rudger, who fell right here, is out of luck.”
The two of them moved on.
As soon as I got out of the forest, a large lake opened up, and in the lake, large koi that were shining in fluorescent colors were swimming.
“It’s a luminous carp.”
“That’s an intuitive name.”
“You know it because you visited our school. Everyone’s naming skills are the worst.”
Rudger nodded, recalling the dream fog and weather clouds.
It was only natural that Dreamwalkers would be the only ones who could name the creatures that inhabited Dreamland.
“They are safe though. If I don’t touch you first, I won’t harm you in particular.”
“What are they eating?”
Even the large lake where the koi were submerged was full of twinkling stars.
“That, too, is a human dream.”
“dream? Wasn’t there only starlight embedded in the sky?”
“Ordinary people have different depths of sleep even if they sleep the same way. For those who sleep so deeply that no one wakes them up, even on this upper level, their dreams descend further down. The luminous carp eats it and grows.”
“It is a strange place.”
I admired the fact that even in the Kasar Basin, it maintained its own independent ecosystem.
Dreamland was at a different level.
In the first place, it is a different world from the laws of physics.
If you try to approach it with basic common sense, you will rather fail.
“That’s Okay. We are now safe enough.”
Seeing the open plain, Julia let out a sigh of relief.
Her gaze turned to Ludger.
“So maybe it’s good now?”
“I’ll have to think about that later.”
“As you know, the situation is not good right now. Everyone in Ceorn fell to Dreamland. Look over there.”
Julia raised a finger and pointed to the sky.
A beautiful night sky that is difficult to see from outside.
The starlight embedded in it swayed and eventually began to fall one by one.
It was a shooting star.
The lines of light across the black sky were beautiful at first glance, but Julia’s expression wasn’t very good.
What that meant was very clear.
“The stars are falling. That means, even now, people are falling into Dreamland.”
“It means that it is affecting not only Seorn, but outside of it as well.”
“It doesn’t matter now, but it’s not good for them if we don’t get out of here quickly.”
“Are there any other problems?”
“Think of a vortex. The moment you get caught up in the outside, it’s a form of getting sucked into the core in the center.”
Julia said Dreamland is the same.
“You can stay on the surface as long as you like. But from the upper levels, it’s like stepping into the currents of this great world. Even if you want to stay here, you can’t. The moment you fall on the upper floor, it will definitely go down as time passes.”
“It’s like a sand pit.”
“Sand bog. That’s what it says. Even if you stay still, you will fall, and if you struggle, you will fall faster. It’s okay now, but will it be okay in the future?”
It doesn’t end just because it flows into the middle layer.
said Julia.
It is sucked into the center like a whirlpool.
The vortex never stops until it reaches its deepest point.
At the end of it maybe… … .
Rudger’s gaze turned downward.
Now that they had landed in Dreamland, everyone here was destined to fall into the depths.
