153: The disadvantages of the Dream Pillow!

Terao was so angry he almost vomited blood!

But very quickly, he calmed down again.

So what if they were the first to reach Level 10?

In his heart, those two were already two corpses!

And he had made up his mind—

The other 48 people could die by the Bloodthirsty Vine's hand.

But Jiao Zhengqing and Yin Xi had to be dealt with by his own hands, Terao!

After all, only by being personally killed by a player would those two level ranking players drop treasure chests!

Terao planned sinisterly in his heart.

Lin Chuan, however, was completely unaware of all this.

He lay with his head on the Dream Pillow, falling into a deep sleep.

Living two lives, this was his first time using the Dream Pillow.

It felt both novel and terrifying.

The novelty was that he could clearly know that he was dreaming.

The terror was that the dream felt too real!

Lin Chuan directly pinched his arm; good heavens, he could even feel pain!

That pain felt like a self-hypnotic sensation from the brain.

This sense of reality, different from ordinary dreams, made him both terrified and vigilant!

He remembered watching some sci-fi movies before the apocalypse where the protagonist couldn't distinguish between dream and reality, resulting in them being trapped in the dream, unable to wake up!

The protagonist lived in a dream but believed he was living in reality.

And the protagonist in reality fell into the deepest level of sleep, unable to be woken no matter what...

Lin Chuan couldn't help but feel a little scared—

If he woke up now, would it be a real awakening?

What if he was actually still in a dream, but he thought he had woken up?

Good heavens!

No wonder the Dream Pillow was called a 'cursed artifact'!

This thing's ability was indeed heaven-defying, but using it felt too sinister!

Lin Chuan didn't immediately use the Dream Pillow's precognitive ability, but instead tried very hard to distinguish between dream and reality!

He made various attempts in his dream.

He found that all the items he possessed could be used in the dream;

Even the Dream Pillow, this dream-entering item, also existed in the dream!

But Lin Chuan obviously didn't dare to easily try using the Dream Pillow within the dream...

He felt that with such an infinite nesting doll scenario, he might truly be unable to leave the dream!

Next, he tried all the Talents he had mastered!

The result was that even the BUG-level Fireball could be used in the dream!

In other words, there was absolutely no point of distinction between the dream and reality!

This made Lin Chuan a little flustered, and he immediately ended the dream, calling for himself to wake up!

He woke up to see himself sleeping in the death coffin, with the Dream Pillow under his head.

However, Lin Chuan was still a bit jumpy—

Damn it! Had he really woken up?

Or was he still in a dream?

Lin Chuan immediately broke down, he couldn't take it anymore!

So this damn artifact was really meant to trap its owner, wasn't it?!

Lin Chuan tried to calm down for a while, and his mental Talent, Courage of the Mayfly, played a small role.

He calmly deduced that he should indeed have returned to reality.

After all, the time he had just spent in the dream was very short, so it was unlikely that a dream within a dream or an inability to wake up would occur.

But even knowing he was in reality, Lin Chuan's mood was still a bit heavy.

The drawbacks of using this Dream Pillow were simply too severe!

Before, he used to think that the death of the Dream Pillow's owner in his previous life was mostly the owner's own problem.

Now, after experiencing it firsthand, he felt that the Dream Pillow was simply too much of a trap!

But it was still an artifact, after all!

And its precognitive ability was too tempting!

It seemed a bit difficult for Lin Chuan to stop using the Dream Pillow from now on.

Lin Chuan was conflicted for a long time, then suddenly thought of something—

moonstone!

He still had 28 moonstones given to him by Jiu Gui Dalao (Drunkard)!

Although he was saving these for upgrading the Strong 7 version of the contract.

But at this moment, if he only took one to use.

He could always replace one moonstone later.

But Lin Chuan wasn't actually sure if the enhanced Dream Pillow could solve the problem of difficulty in distinguishing between dream and reality.

He thought it over and over, and finally took out a moonstone from his inventory.

The success rate of moonstone enhancing equipment was quite high.

And it was only for a +1 enhancement, which almost didn't require any auxiliary items to succeed.

Lin Chuan felt quite relaxed at heart, holding the moonstone against the Dream Pillow, and silently chanted: Enhance!

The moonstone instantly emitted a brilliant moonlight, completely enveloping the Dream Pillow.

About a minute later, the moonlight faded, and Lin Chuan picked up the +1 enhanced Dream Pillow, examining it carefully.

Outwardly, there was no difference.

Only on the silver-white front of the Dream Pillow were there some tiny patterns.

Those patterns were almost invisible to the naked eye.

Lin Chuan was only able to notice them quickly because he had plundered the Visual Enhancement Talent.

So, what was the use of these patterns?

Lin Chuan pondered for a moment, and some guesses formed in his mind.

He hesitated for a moment, then finally placed the Dream Pillow under his head and entered the dream state again.

The Dream Pillow's dream state could actually be considered a reproduction of the past and a simulation of the future.

This also corresponded to its two abilities: 'Dream the Past' and 'Dream the Future'.

Lin Chuan chose to simulate the future.

And he set it to be the scenario just before he was about to enter the Yizhong Secret Realm.

So as soon as he entered the dream, he once again saw the streets full of luxury cars outside the Yizhong school gate.

He scanned the street, then scanned the chat channel.

Yes, he could also see the chat channel in the dream!

What he saw were players' messages in the chat channel in the future!

And at this time, the main topic in the chat channel was the World Boss!

Lin Chuan only glanced at it briefly and didn't pay much attention.

He directly took out the Dream Pillow from his inventory.

When he found that the Dream Pillow in the dream did not have the enhanced patterns, he finally breathed a sigh of relief!

At least, he no longer had to worry about not being able to distinguish between dream and reality after falling into a dream!

After putting the Dream Pillow back into his inventory, Lin Chuan finally swaggered into the Yizhong Secret Realm!

Anyway, it was in a dream, so he wouldn't actually die.

So at this time, Lin Chuan was clearly not as cautious as he was in reality.

One could even say he was a bit reckless.

After he rushed into the Yizhong Secret Realm unprepared, he found that his appearance and physique had changed.

The original Lin Chuan had a sunny and handsome appearance, standing at 1.81 meters, a proper handsome man!

But as soon as he entered the secret realm, his height directly shrunk to about 1.7 meters, and his appearance became an ordinary, common face.

He even had a cast on his hand, and his whole demeanor appeared gloomy.

Giving people the impression of a petty person who bullied the weak and feared the strong, with a very dark inner self.

Besides the change in appearance, he was also wearing a school uniform.

His backpack even genuinely contained books.

The student ID card hanging around his neck read: Yi Boyang, Senior Class 3 (12).

Good heavens, role-playing?

Lin Chuan was a bit confused, but not at all panicked.

After all, ownerless secret realms were like this; there would be no shadowy figures or judges to explain the secret realm rules to you.

Here, all rules needed to be explored by the players themselves!
