114: Chapter 114 Emergency Meeting of the Dream Society

Inside the Dream Society's Team Exclusive Space, flowing light wove together, as if a condensed Dream World had been moved into this small space.

Lin Wan stood in the center, her fingertips lightly touching a pinkish-purple flower bud suspended in the air.

She could clearly feel the faint pulsation inside the bud—the throbbing of life gestating within, like a sleeping little life breathing slowly.

This was the result of her B-Rank Talent Life Weaving working in tandem with the Dream Spirit Qingyu.

Although insufficient to give birth to high-level life, it could convert free-floating Dream Power into elemental energy and manifest it as "Elemental Flower Buds," which then nourished the organisms and plants within the space, building a stable ecological cycle.

Around the space, glowing "Star Vines" were entwined, with crystalline "Energy Fruits" hanging from the vines.

Once mature, they would automatically convert into public Dream Power.

The ground was covered with soft "Cloud Moss" that emitted a faint fluorescence when stepped upon.

Several palm-sized "Dream-Dwelling Insects" were crawling on the moss, gnawing on the fallen fruit debris, and their excrement served as nutrients for the Star Vines.

In the distance, in a small lake, translucent "Light-Scaled Fish" swam.

When their fins brushed the water, they stirred ripples containing Dream Power.

This was the ecological chain Lin Wan had spent half a month cultivating; from plants to insects to fish, it required no additional energy consumption to continuously generate public Dream Power.

She walked to the lakeside, gazing at the blue flower buds floating on the water's surface.

Through the thin petals, she could feel the clearer life rhythm inside, as if echoing the energy flow within the space.

A sharp prompt sounded in the space—it was the meeting summons sent by Li Mubai.

In less than half an hour, the circular conference table in the core area was full.

Aside from core members Chen Rui, Wang Jingjing, Zheng Gang, Zhou Mei, and four ordinary members who were currently on a Dream Task and unable to attend, the remaining 12 members were all present.

Zhang Hao sat in the front row on the left.

The Silver Star on his shoulder was using the All-Knowing Eye (Pseudo) to quickly scan the attendees, syncing the information—"10 core members, 6 present; 10 ordinary members, 6 present"—to him, while instinctively collecting data on all present.

Zhao Hu leaned back in his chair, arms crossed, the Roar on his shoulder occasionally letting out a low growl, clearly full of anticipation for the meeting's content.

Li Mubai stood at the head of the conference table.

With a wave of his finger, the light blue Team Panel immediately hovered before everyone.

After the Dream System 2.1 upgraded, the panel layout was clearer.

The newly added "Rank" column was particularly eye-catching, along with a series of statistical items including headcounts, B-Rank Dream Gate data, and real-world stronghold locations.

Dream Society - Team Panel

Team Rank LV2 (Can be upgraded upon completing the "Team Upgrade Mission")

Core Members 10 (Li Mubai, Lin Wan, Zhang Hao, Zhao Hu, Chen Rui, Wang Jingjing, Sun Yu, Qian Xiaomin, Zhou Mei, Zheng Gang)

Bound Stronghold Team Real-world Stronghold (Located in the school club activity room, 200 sqm)

Bound Dream Gate B-Rank (Two-way passage, 20 daily passages, refreshes at 0:00 daily, can be synthesized for upgrade)

Unlocked Functions Team Communication, Team Buff (All-member Dream Power recovery speed +15%), Team Exclusive Task Acceptance Permission

Pending Functions Team Dream Stronghold (Requires consuming 1 million public Dream Power to integrate the exclusive space into the Dream World)

"After the System upgrade, there are two main changes to the team."

Li Mubai's voice was steady and powerful, his gaze sweeping over the crowd.

"First, the team Rank mechanism has been clarified. We are currently LV2 (full capacity of 20 people), and the upgrade mission requires me and four members to form a team to complete it; the mission content is unknown."

"Second, the construction permission for the 'Team Dream Stronghold' has been unlocked—as long as we consume 1 million public Dream Power, we can integrate our exclusive space into the Dream World."

"Combined with the real-world stronghold in the school club activity room and the bound B-Rank Dream Gate, we can form a stable stronghold that spans both worlds."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Jingjing immediately raised her hand to ask: "After integrating into the Dream World, will the ecological System of the exclusive space be affected?"

"Also, after consuming the public Dream Power, will the subsequent replenishment speed keep up?"

The Logic Core in her arms flickered with blue light, quickly calculating the feasibility of the space integration.

"It won't be affected."

Lin Wan responded first, her fingertips lightly brushing the small flower bud condensed on the edge of the table, feeling the faint life pulsation within.

"Although my B-Rank Talent Life Weaving is not enough to give birth to high-level life, Qingyu can perceive the life energy of the Dream World."

"After integration, our ecological chain will absorb the natural energy of the Dream World, and the generation speed of public Dream Power will actually increase by 30%."

"Moreover, by obtaining resources directly in the Dream World, we can gain even more Dream Power supplies; there is absolutely no need to worry about consumption issues."

Zhang Hao added: "The B-Rank Dream Gate is a key advantage."

He tapped the "Dream Gate" icon on the panel.

"Currently, there are fewer than 50 globally bound B-Rank gates disclosed on the network."

"Our gate can directly connect the exclusive space, the school club's real-world stronghold, and the Dream World."

"During future exploration, we can both evacuate quickly and transport resources in a timely manner, giving us more flexibility than other teams."

Li Mubai nodded and continued: "The team's goals are now clear, and we will proceed in two steps."

He raised his hand to highlight the key points on the panel.

"Step one: Prioritize strengthening ourselves—all members must improve their personal Talent Ranks and deepen their cooperation with their spirits while ensuring their safety."

"Core members should strive to raise their Dream authority to LV4 within a month, and ordinary members should reach at least LV3."

"At the same time, allocate public Dream Power reasonably to upgrade and build defensive facilities for the Team Exclusive Space, preparing for the construction of the stronghold."

"Step two: Prepare for the upgrade mission and stronghold construction."

He looked at Zhang Hao, Lin Wan, and the others.

"Once Chen Rui, Li Na, and the others return from their missions, I will lead Zhang Hao, Lin Wan, Zhao Hu, and Chen Rui to form a team to carry out the Team Upgrade Mission."

"After the mission is completed, we will immediately consume public Dream Power to build the Team Dream Stronghold and completely open the channel between the two worlds."

Zhao Hu clenched his fists in excitement: "Finally, we can have a real fight!"

His Roar seemed to understand, letting out a loud Roar that made the conference table vibrate slightly.

"Safety comes first."

Lin Wan reminded softly, "My Qingyu can provide basic life protection, and Zhang Hao's Eye of Numerology can predict danger in advance. We should be fine if we coordinate well."

She thought of the elemental flower buds in the space that were gestating life, feeling more confident.

She decided to take the water element bud and wood element bud with her during the mission—even if the Talent was only B-Rank, as long as it was used precisely, it could play a key role.

Li Mubai concluded: "The System upgrade has brought us opportunities, but also challenges."

"Other teams must also be preparing to upgrade, so we must complete the stronghold construction as soon as possible to seize the initiative."

He closed the panel with a firm gaze.

"After the meeting, core members stay behind so we can refine the task allocation."

"Ordinary members, go collect your training tasks and improve your strength—the next step for the Dream Society starts here."
