Dream Travel

Chapter 204 Wish you good luck
Ten minutes ago.

After discovering that many places were blocked, Bai Mu realized what the target wanted to do.

Using the Imperial Arms, he obtained the information he wanted from the retreating organization members.

They forced their way into an experimental area and destroyed the power supply there. Since they had guns, they didn't need to rush all the way; just crippling the power supply was enough.

Without the power to sustain it, the ghost, having lost its connection to maintain its form, simply vanished into thin air.

However, this place can only clear out a portion of the ghosts, but with fewer ghosts inside the nuclear power plant, White Curtain's operational efficiency has increased significantly.

The retreating members of the organization reacted as if they had seen a ghost when they saw him.

There is more than one evacuation point, but once the white curtain is encountered, evacuation will definitely be impossible.

By intimidating members of these organizations, White Curtain obtained more information.

"You only have one chance to answer. If you're wrong, you die; if you're right, I'll let you go."

"Please, may I ask?" The captured member nodded hurriedly. He had resisted for the organization, but he had never fought back.

Faced with the increasingly menacing expression on Bai Mu's face, he made a wise choice.

Those who didn't make the right choice have now gone on a mental trip.

"Are you planning to run away?"

"Yes, that's right, the organization has issued an evacuation order."

"Where is the evacuation point? Never mind, where is the Source of Another Dream?" Bai Mu stared at the organization member, having already obtained some information through the Imperial Arms.

But more comprehensive information needs to be provided by the other party in person.

The organization member quickly revealed what he knew.

"Alright, you can go now." After Bai Mu finished speaking, he quickly left while the other man was still completely bewildered. Now that he knew where the Dream Source was, he didn't want to waste any more time.

In Marius's laboratory, the Dream Source, waiting to die, was unwilling to die like this and was trying to save himself.

However, his physical weakness made it difficult for him to move around. The medicine only kept him alive; it couldn't keep him alive and kicking despite his remaining strength.

He reached out and tried to pry open the door, but the access control system had been tampered with, and he couldn't open it no matter what he did.

Marius was in despair.

However, the shaking of the door made him open his eyes wide: "Help, help me!!"

Boom! The sturdy laboratory door began to deform; after being repeatedly struck, it was smashed open.

The moment the white curtain entered, it grabbed a bag of coffee beans from the lab and poured them into its mouth under Marius's watchful gaze.

"You're going to die." After swallowing the coffee beans, Bai Mu glanced at Marius.

"Can you save me?" Marius didn't care about Bai Mu's identity; he only cared about whether he could survive.

Bai Mu shook his head: "I'm not a doctor."

A flicker of sadness crossed Marius's eyes, which was then replaced by a fierce look: "Take me to a place, and I will tell you everything you want to know!"

He didn't know why he was betrayed. He had no intention of keeping the research results to himself, and in fact, he was very satisfied with his existing collaborators. He never expected to be betrayed at this time.

Who Bai Mu is is no longer important; what matters is that he wants to live.

"I'm in a hurry, those people will run away in a little while."

Run? Marius suddenly realized, oh, they were the enemy, but he no longer cared about the enemy.

"Just get me to where I need to be, I know this place very well."

"Row."

As for Marius, the White Curtain will not stand idly by and watch him die. If they do not save him, the Dream will collapse and go out of control. They must keep him alive.

She just doesn't know how to save others; how Marius can save himself depends on what he does.

Following the directions he provided, they led him to another laboratory, which contained many more corpses.

Upon arriving here, Marius struggled to sit on a device that resembled an electric chair. His wounds were still bleeding, but he breathed a slight sigh of relief after sitting down.

"This thing can interfere with the helmet's signal transmission and communicate with me. I'll help you mark everyone's location!"

Marius's mindset changed very quickly; he showed no leniency towards traitors.

As he awaited his death, he tried to contact the people he could reach, including many promising juniors, but they all ignored him.

In this despair, his real enemy offered him a helping hand—no, not an enemy, but a collaborator!
"Okay." Bai Mu slapped the object Marius was pointing at onto the helmet. The image in the tactical goggles flickered slightly before returning to normal.

"?" Elsewhere, the commander who had just received the signal from the tactical helmet was startled. The signal was interrupted again, and he hadn't even had time to get the image that the white screen was showing.

This situation was unexpected, but the commander reacted quickly, immediately leading his men to the nearest location to the signal source.

But the ghosts on the road forced them to stop and fight using weapons that could subdue the ghosts.

Afterwards, with the location information provided by Marius, White Curtain found a new target, a safe house.

He didn't know what was inside the safe house, nor did he want to know; he just wanted to break down the door and go in.

Looking at the heavy isolation door in front of him, Bai Mu slashed at it with his sword. The strong recoil made his eye twitch slightly, and his gradually berserk mind cleared up a lot.

He released Luciela.

"I'm clearing away the ghosts, open the door, and hurry up."

"Alright, give me your power." The environment wasn't suitable for much conversation, so Lucyella simply transformed into her awakened form and unceremoniously demanded demonic energy from the white curtain.

"I'll be very hungry."

"Then go eat meat, there's plenty on the ground," Lucy said without turning her head. With the support of the white curtain's demonic energy, cat fur grew on her body, making her even stronger.

The isolation door in front of her was severely deformed by her impact.

Bai Mu glanced at the corpse on the ground. "Can you eat that thing?"
"..." Elsewhere, Marius also saw Luciela. He wondered how she had appeared, but he calmly accepted the monster's transformation.

This is not surprising; among the experimental subjects he has handled are monsters and even beings that seem to be demons.

After encountering the demon, he felt that God existed in the world, and he became full of confidence in his research.

If there are demons, then surely there must be heaven and hell too, right?
The research he participated in was very promising. Although the people in charge of the research all died because the research got out of control, it doesn't matter. He is still alive, so the research can continue.

As for whether the research findings would be used to make weapons or for other purposes, Marius was not so concerned.

Inside the sealed laboratory, Marius monitored the situation on the white screen while simultaneously printing the body. The laboratory already possessed a semi-finished condensed body; adjustments were all that was needed based on his body scan data.

After that, he will make an extremely bold attempt: consciousness transfer.

This method is dangerous, as the main body of those ghosts needs to retain the individual's nerves and brain in order to maintain the ghost's existence.

Once the main body is destroyed, the entanglement between consciousness and condensed state disappears, and the ghost will also dissipate. If the main body remains intact, the condensed state will be difficult to destroy.

Since consciousness is immortal, the printed Bose-Einstein condensate is unlikely to dissipate.

The problem is that the subject being processed needs specific conditions to be preserved, and such preservation and maintenance of the entangled state requires sufficient electricity or other energy sources.

However, there is another way to resolve the main body's state, a kind of magical power. Marius tried to understand it, but did not get what he wanted.

He used that knowledge to change some existing technologies, and although there were still risks, he didn't have time to conduct new experiments.

He will die if he doesn't do this. As for turning himself into a normal ghost, let's not even talk about whether there's enough time. Right now, there's no one to perform the surgery to remove his brain and nerves.

To survive, he had no choice but to take this risk.

"There are other intruders inside the base. Your time is running out," Marius reminded White Screen, looking at the screen on the computer.

"They can't beat me."

"...Whatever makes you happy." Marius said nothing more, having given up the time he had been waiting for.

There's nothing he can do now, so he can only place his hopes on the ghost transformation. Let Bai Mu do whatever he wants.

Marius attempted to mobilize some ghosts, but his authentication information had been tampered with, making it impossible for him to issue commands to the ghosts in the base through the equipment.

This made him even angrier. It was premeditated, absolutely premeditated, otherwise it would have been impossible to modify his main permissions so thoroughly!

"Cough cough cough—" Marius, who was in agitated, couldn't help but cough.

He was surprised at what kind of medicine he had taken... that allowed him to stay alive so well after suffering a fatal wound.

No wonder the success rate of the preliminary surgery for creating ghosts was so high after working with these people.

"Are you going to die?" came the voice from the white curtain.

"...It'll be soon, but I might not die. Whew~ I won't be able to communicate anymore. I'll hand over the remaining location to you..."

Marius's hands trembled as he operated the computer, sending the difficult-to-monitor blind spots to the white screen.

These areas might be normal blind spots, but after being betrayed, Marius, having come to his senses, has realized many things he had overlooked.

The place he provides definitely has an escape route or safe house for traitors.

"Hey hey—okay, good luck."

Marius exhaled, his consciousness gradually fading. The device he was sitting on covered his head, and cold gas was expelled from it. He completely lost consciousness.

Whether he lives or dies depends on whether he can 'wake up'.

Here in the white curtain, with a piercing, twisting sound, Luciela, already somewhat berserk, smashed open the door, or rather, the wall.

The door was too sturdy; her continuous bombardment only severely deformed the isolation door. So she turned her attention to the wall. Since the door was too sturdy, the wall that wasn't sturdy enough became the door.

"Well done." Bai Mu patted Lucy Ella's calf, only to be kicked away by her.

Her two tails caught the isolation door that fell as the wall was demolished, and she used it as a weapon, instantly killing two people who tried to attack her.

The splattered blood landed on her tail, which her sharp beaks licked clean.

Although that bastard Bai Mu forbade her to eat people, such accidental contact was acceptable; it would be better to fight and kill without bloodshed.
When someone is shattered to pieces, it's not just blood that flies out.

As for those ghosts, she can't see them and they're not easy to deal with, so let Bai Mu continue to be in charge; all she has to do is kill them.

Since everyone in this safe house is an enemy, it's safe to kill them all without letting any of them escape.

"Wait, I'm from the Disposal Bureau!" One of the organization members exclaimed in alarm as he watched Luciela go on a killing spree.

He still has important tasks to complete and cannot die here.

"Hmm?" Lucy Ella glanced at the other party. Her two mouths and the sinister cat face were particularly creepy, and the undercover agent being stared at was sweating profusely.

She flicked her tail and gently swept it across the white screen, sending the self-proclaimed undercover agent flying towards the other side.

Meanwhile, the unfortunate man holding a suitcase next to him was crushed to death.

Several members of the organization attempted to retrieve the box and intercept Lucy Ella.

They carried another type of box, and condensed ghosts formed around them, crashing into Luciela.

After being hit, Lucyella felt a burning pain on her skin from the electric current, but she also suffered from the extreme cold.

Awakened beings have strong physiques, and their size prevents them from being instantly killed by these ghosts, but the damage from being hit is real.

She was terrified of these ghosts; if her attacks were ineffective, they could kill her instead, provided she didn't run away.

"How could such a thing exist?" Luciela was very annoyed. Frostbite greatly inhibited her recovery ability. If she wanted to heal the attacked area, she would first have to peel off the frostbitten part.

As for the surface burns that resemble electric current, they can be ignored.

"Use the isolation door; that thing, the ghost, can't get through," came the voice from the white curtain.

"Hmm?" Luciela revealed a dangerous smile upon hearing this, her tail coiling up another isolation door like a heavy hammer...

"I can't see them!"

Even if you have weapons that can affect ghosts, it's useless if you can't see the enemy.

The white curtain patted the weapon box, and green lightning appeared on Lucyella's body, but the intensity of the lightning was not high.

From the start of the battle until now, the White Curtain has been constantly depleting its resources. Luciela in battle mode is burning through too much oil, so the support we can provide her this time isn't as high.

It was just a layer of lightning; it might not be enough to kill a person directly, but it was enough to prevent those ghosts from getting close to her normally.

Once you get close, the ghost's trail will appear.

Luciela swung the heavy isolation door, smashing the ghosts one by one with her hammer, watching them slowly flow back to their original form.

She didn't touch the suitcase, but anyone who got close to it would be targeted first.

He didn't know what was in the box, but the waterlogged box was definitely important.

Then she should just focus on killing the people around this box. Some of the people here are actually quite strong... they can even fight some of the weaker greatsword users.

She is an Abyss Warrior capable of slaughtering many Greatsword users!
