Chapter 189 Skull Wall
The corner of the curly-haired city lord's mouth tilted slightly.
"Even if you are powerful outside, you are just an ordinary person in this city. It seems that your reaction is very slow."
Ye Tingbai was stunned. He took a step forward, grabbed the city lord's neck, and lifted him high above his head. He finally understood why he felt that this place was strange, because from beginning to end, this city was full of ordinary people.
Everyone is surviving in the most primitive way, not because there are no judges here, but because everyone who enters here has become an ordinary person.
The city lord's struggle attracted a lot of burly men. They wanted to subdue Ye Tingbai, but he kicked them and vomited blood. Everyone stepped back in fear.
The curly-haired city lord stuttered and asked, "How could you be so powerful?"
Ye Tingbai: "No wonder your grandson is so fearless. Tell me, what's going on!"
At this time, the city lord suddenly widened his eyes and pointed his hand behind Ye Tingbai. Through his pupils, Ye Tingbai saw a terrifying monster with festering pus all over his body, and even bones could be seen in some places, but when he turned around, the monster had disappeared.
Ye Tingbai asked in his heart in confusion: "Did you see it?"
Sub-personality: "No, but your eyes did see it."
The perspective of the sub-personality is different from his. It relies on his perception, which is somewhat similar to the perspective of God, but it seems to only work on things on the material level. Many supernatural and spiritual monsters are not very good at sub-personalities.
The weird monster appeared for only a few seconds and then disappeared. The curly-haired city lord was scared. Ye Tingbai was afraid that he would die suddenly, so he let him go.
Ye Tingbai: "Why don't you say what you are waiting for?"
The curly-haired city lord sat on the ground helplessly.
"I don't know either. I'm just a worker. This city has its own consciousness. We all work for it."
"Aren't those worlds, and the letters and gifts you sent out, created by them?"
The Curly City Lord shook his head in panic.
"No, they were all created by it. We are only responsible for reception, and I am responsible for record collection. We really didn't do anything."
Ye Tingbai asked for a long time before accepting the fact that this Dream City is an autonomous place. Every ten years, one person will be selected to enter here and realize his dream.
No one has lied to Ye Tingbai since the beginning. I just don't know what went wrong with this opening. Dream City actually selected five people, and these five people need them to actively find them.
Ye Tingbai: "You mean, the people selected by Dream City will appear directly in the city, instead of you going out to pick them up?"
"Yes, it has been like this for thousands of years."
People living in this city have more or less obsessions. This city has absorbed many people into the city for tens of thousands of years, but no one has really survived from the beginning to the present.
At first, humans entered the Dream City and were ecstatic because their dreams came true. After that, they became bored and began to live an ordinary life in this city. In this city, ordinary people are immortal, free from disease and disaster, and have everything they want.
But it is too boring, boring to the point of driving people crazy. These people are somewhat similar to the situation of the Bone People, and even worse than the Bone People, so many people commit suicide every year. Suicide does not enjoy the treatment of immortality, and death is death.
And this city will always choose a puppet to serve and manage itself, which is the birth of the city lord. The power of the city lord is actually not great, just like a city management officer.
Ye Tingbai suddenly thought of the fact that he did not give Tian Xin the fruit.
"That fruit, why didn't you give it to Tian Xin?"
Curly hesitated.
"I don't know. The distribution of fruits is controlled by it. When Tian Xin made a wish, no fruit was delivered to me."
Ye Tingbai: "Does the wish have to go through you?"
"It shouldn't be necessary. I'm also new. There wasn't even a setting for fruits before. The selected person would be dragged into the dream until she realized her dream."
Ye Tingbai recalled the identity information of the other four people in detail again. Why are there five people this time? Are there any connections between the five of them?
"City Lord, the wall, the wall is cracked!"
A resident suddenly ran and shouted outside the castle, and everyone in the room showed a panic expression when they heard this.
The curly-haired city lord immediately stood up and changed his previous decadence.
"Quick, take the tools and repair the cracks."
Ye Tingbai saw these people so anxious, but he didn't stop them. He wondered what these people wanted to do.
Ten minutes later, in front of a wall that couldn't see the top, the curly-haired city lord led a team of people with a bunch of very primitive construction tools and a few pots of very primitive gray mud.
Are they really going to build a wall?
But when they approached Ye Tingbai, he felt something was wrong. The mud smelled strange and had a slight fishy smell.
Secondary personality: "Bone powder and some human tissue fluid, and some other things."
Ye Tingbai walked up to the city lord and asked.
"What are these?"
The curly-haired city lord looked around and whispered in Ye Tingbai's ear.
"It's a special material made of skull powder mixed with brains, used to reinforce the wall. If the wall breaks, we will all die."
Ye Tingbai: "Have you ever broken it?"
The curly-haired city lord paused, his face extremely ugly.
"Everyone who has seen the wall break is dead, not one is left."
Ye Tingbai looked up at the invisible wall and asked in confusion: "Is this wall made of this material?"
The curly-haired city lord was a little scared when he mentioned this topic, and he stuttered.
"It's almost the same."
Ye Tingbai was more and more curious about the world behind the wall. The residents of this world were more like zombies. It was not an exaggeration to say that they were puppets of this city. After death, they had to become building materials. It was really a waste of waste.
Ye Tingbai took out the tablet that monitored the other four people and found that Fran had been completely alienated and turned into a pollutant, and He Zai was like a zombie, sinking in such a collapsed world.
Only Gao Huihui and Tian Xin were still normal. Tian Xin was on the run, and Gao Huihui seemed to want to get away from her current life. Ye Tingbai looked at the screen and suddenly saw a flash behind Gao Huihui.
"Wait, what is that?"
Subpersonality: "The monster before was behind Gao Huihui. It moved so fast that the naked eye might miss it."
Ye Tingbai was watching carefully just now, but the thing appeared and disappeared so fast that he couldn't see it clearly. He only felt that Gao Huihui's back twisted for a moment and then returned to normal.
