Ring of Fate

Chapter 1016 The Queen's Commission (Please give me double monthly tickets at the beginning of the month)
Franka showed Lumian the reply from the "Mysterious Queen" and asked for his opinion:
"Should I go?"

Lumian said without hesitation:

"I go."

"Okay." Franka understood what Lumian meant.

She now had to completely switch to behind-the-scenes support and try not to meet important people unless she found an opportunity to make others despair.

Sometimes, I would rather let Ludwig go!

After a brief consideration, Franca quickly pressed the screen:
"I have something important to do this afternoon. Can I let Lumiana meet you instead of me?"

After sending this message, Franca glanced at Lumian and added:
"She knows more details about the relevant matters than I do."

"Okay." The "Mysterious Queen" responded quickly.

Franca then said to Lumian:

"You go to see the 'Mysterious Queen' in a female image, and don't reveal your identity as security guard Li Ming. Although the 'Mysterious Queen' is our ally, we can't let her know everything, especially when we need to hide our identity."

The last time she worked with the "Queen of Mystery" to deal with Zarathustra, Lumian also turned into the "Witch of Despair".

Lumian raised his eyebrows and said, “Tsk tsk.”
"It feels like your IQ has increased after you were put in a situation where you would lose control and die if you were kicked out of the dream."

Franka was used to taunting Lumian, so she said with a snort:

"What does this prove? It proves that I am smart, but I am just too lazy to think. Anyway, you are not stupid, so you can do it for me."

Ludwig, who had just finished eating his burger in the back seat, raised his head and expressed his deep agreement:

"Yeah yeah."

This made Franca silent for a moment.

It doesn't seem right to be approved by Ludwig...

"I'll buy you lunch, then check out the scene and wait to meet the 'Mysterious Queen.'" Lumian, who once again stirred up Franca's emotions and made her more lively, opened the car door and walked out.

…………

15pm, No. Jinhua Street.

Lumian changed into a women's shirt and loose trousers, put on sunglasses and a mask, and used "teleportation" to avoid the guard and went directly to the library warehouse - "Lumiana" was still a wanted person, so he couldn't find a legitimate reason to go in.

There was no one in the library warehouse. Lumian looked at the piles of packaged goods and the tall iron racks, and walked forward slowly.

Suddenly, a peach forest with lush vegetation and blooming flowers appeared before his eyes. There was a winding stream in the forest, which flowed into a towering mountain range and into a small cave.

This isolated Lumian from the outside world.

Then, the "mysterious queen" Bernadette walked out of the peach forest.

Her slightly curly chestnut long hair was simply tied up, and she wore a loose, patterned white T-shirt, which she tied in a knot at the waist. She exuded youthfulness and a very student-like feel, and people would not suspect that Huang Beibei was too precocious.

"Good afternoon, Her Highness Bernadette." Lumian took off his sunglasses and mask and greeted her.

He still admired Emperor Roselle very much, and naturally respected the "Mysterious Queen" as well.

Bernadette nodded gently and said:
"good afternoon."

She didn't exchange pleasantries and went straight to the point:

"Tell us everything that happened last night, not just the 'Man in the Mirror' stuff."

Lumian only concealed some details about his own changes, starting from when Roshan used her "reporter" ability and suddenly heard the conversation between Franka and Janna, and discovered that she was just an illusory image in someone else's dream. He then talked about returning to Mushu Hospital and seeing through someone else's short video that Pengden's roommate Grisha was also there, as well as the problem with the colorful parrot in the painting.

The "Queen of Mystery" listened very quietly, without interrupting or asking for details.

She waited until Lumian stopped talking before asking:

"Luo Fu is a time traveler?"

The Mysterious Queen also knows about the time traveler... Yes, the time traveler has done a lot of things over the years, and it is even possible that she has helped her translate the Emperor's diary. Moreover, she can also enter and exit Mr. Fool's dream city... Lumian nodded:

"Yes."

"Since Luo Fu saw her past self in those 'cocoons' on the light gate, does she think that everyone in the 'cocoons' is a time traveler?" The "Mysterious Queen" asked further.

"There's no doubt that's what she thinks." Lumian probably guessed what the "Mysterious Queen" really wanted to ask, but he still answered cooperatively.

"What does she think about the three empty 'cocoons'?" The youthful face of the "Mysterious Queen" was calm.

Here comes the real question... Lumian muttered to himself and answered truthfully:
"She suspected it was the Ancient Sun God, Emperor Roselle, and Mr. Fool."

Bernadette's expression changed slightly, but she showed no shock.

She said to Lumian:

"The ancient sun god may not have emerged from a 'cocoon'. He may have had another origin."

“Uh…” Lumian was stunned.

If the ancient sun god was not him, then who came out of the "cocoon"?
Bernadette didn't explain, she just said this.

She said with a sigh:

“No wonder Mr. Fool’s dreams contain all the fairy tales and legends I’ve ever heard.

"No wonder those fairy tales and legends have the power to mysteriously reappear..."

Lumian closed his mouth, unsure of how to respond.

After joining the "Curly-Haired Baboon Research Society", he actually knew where Emperor Roselle's inventions, works, and famous sayings came from. After entering the Dream City, he confirmed this.

However, he still admired Roselle, and thought that the life experience of this great emperor, who started as a mortal, gradually wore the crown, and finally ascended to the throne of God, was rare in the world, very inspiring, and people yearned for it. Moreover, the great emperor did change the trend of the times, the world situation, and all aspects of the country of Intis. His legacy is still often mentioned today, and it is still benefiting many middle and lower class people and changing the fate of some people.

Bernadette turned her body and looked at the pink peach blossom forest that was as brilliant and dreamy as the clouds on fire at night, and said to herself:
"In fact, he seldom told me that those fairy tales and legends were written and thought up by himself...

"Most of the time he would say, I have compiled the fairy tales I heard when I was a child. I am telling you the stories that your grandmother once told me, which belonged to us. These are the stories in my dreams. They once brought me a lot of fantasies. I hope they can also make your childhood beautiful and dreamy...

"When he said this, it was as if he was looking through me and recalling his own childhood..."

Lumian suddenly smiled, lowered his head slightly and said:

"My sister also told me some fairy tales, and every time she told them, I had a similar feeling."

At this moment, he felt that he had a lot in common with the "Mysterious Queen".

One's father was a time traveler, and the other's sister was a time traveler. Both of them are now dead, but there is still some hope of resurrection.

“Mysterious Queen” Bernadette looked back at Lumian and nodded slightly:

“It was not until I entered this dream city and lived there for a while that I felt I truly understood him.”

“Me too.” Lumian responded with a self-deprecating smile.

The Mysterious Queen quickly shook off her previous state of nostalgia and said to Lumian:
"I want to ask you for a favor."

“What help?” Lumian perked up.

The "Mysterious Queen" was silent for a few seconds and said:
"Whether she is currently cooperating with the one who believes in the Aurora Society, or jumping back to the Tianzun camp, or wavering, her ultimate goal is not what I want to see or am willing to accept.

"I hesitated for a while, and today I finally made up my mind to kick her out of the dream as soon as possible so that she can't use this real dream to gain benefits. For this, I can bear the result of never being able to come to this city again."

“You want to take action against the Emperor Roselle in the mirror in the near future?” Lumian suddenly realized.

He noticed that the "Mysterious Queen" did not address the Emperor Roselle in the mirror as "Him" which represented an angel, but as "She" which symbolizes a woman.

"Yes." The Mysterious Queen nodded slightly. "It would be difficult for me to drive her out of the dream even with the seal, so I need your help."

"No problem, you have provided us with great help in the matter of Zarathustra." Lumian agreed directly.

The position of Emperor Roselle in the mirror was wavering. Lumian didn't dare to bet that He would definitely stand on the side of Mr. Fool, so it was better to eliminate the hidden danger in advance.

The Mysterious Queen added:

"I will advance you a fee for this help..."

You don't have to be so polite. We didn't pay him when we dealt with Zarathustra... Before Lumian could respond, he heard the "Mysterious Queen" tell him the exact amount:
"50."

How much? Lumian subconsciously doubted his hearing.

He immediately realized that the "mysterious queen" was also using this incident to give money to himself and others.

And this also broke the suspected limit of 30,000.

Does this mean that the "Mysterious Queen" has made up her mind to ignore it and is ready to be kicked out of the dream for the third time? Lumian asked tentatively:

"When do you plan to act?"

"The sooner the better." Bernadette said concisely.

Lumian considered for a moment and said:

“Between 3pm tomorrow and 3pm the day after tomorrow.

"And tomorrow at 2:30 p.m., I will go to the Xingmeng Grocery Store to rent an item, which may come in handy after Zhou Shasha arrives in Yangdu."

Zhou Shasha will take the high-speed rail to Yangdu at noon the day after tomorrow.

Lumian hopes to rent it once and use it twice, which includes expelling Emperor Roselle in the mirror from the dream and dealing with the changes brought about by Zhou Shasha's entry into the dream city.

"Okay." The "Mysterious Queen" didn't say anything more.

She thought for a moment and said:

"Since Huang Jiajia and the others have become Tianzun's secret puppets, and Lv Yongan, the follower of the 'Great Mother', has also discovered the falsity of your identity as the Son of God, you must be on guard against them suddenly attacking Li Keji and cutting off An Xiaotian's last hope of curing him."

Hearing this, Lumian suddenly tensed up.

Yes!

After what happened last night, whether it was Tianzun trying to eliminate the hidden dangers or the "Great Mother" wanting to maintain the balance, Li Keji would most likely become the main target of attack!
Lumian originally planned to find Li Keji late at night tonight to see if the mushroom met his requirements.

But now it seems that we must go as soon as possible, go now!
