Dream Travel

Chapter 322 will take three to five years.

"You should take a serious look at this." Seeing Bai Mu sign the agreement so readily, Bo Lei was somewhat speechless.

Bai Mu smiled and removed the ornament from the agreement: "This is enough."

This is how Lily told him to use it. When faced with certain special agreements, the pendant he carries has a detection effect. If it takes effect, it means that the agreement is a demonic contract.

If there is no response, there is generally no problem. Whether or not the contents of the agreement should be followed depends on his own moral standards.

If his moral standards are not high enough, then it depends on whether the party providing the agreement has enough power.

He's old enough to make him abide by the agreement.

"Alright, I won't go into the details. Just don't talk about this. The confidentiality period is six months. If an extension is needed, I will notify you."

"So short?" Bai Mu was somewhat surprised. It seemed to be a confidentiality agreement from Night Owl Mining, where the confidentiality period was twenty years...

Of course, if the confidentiality is lifted in advance, the other side will also issue a corresponding notification.

“Some things can change a lot in six months, and this matter is for you... you should look at the information yourself.”

Borre handed over the relevant information to Bai Mu, which he had only recently acquired.

Bai Mu sat on the sofa and began to read it carefully. He could skip the confidentiality agreement and take a closer look at this.

Moreover, the content inside really interested White Screen.

"You understand me so well."

The strange dream he is about to encounter is related to demons, and it is a strange dream controlled by demons!

This is exactly what he wanted!

His weapon crate is empty; the souls he's collected are currently in a state of imbalance, with yin energy dominating and yang energy declining. He needs to replenish it with a batch of demons with strong yang energy...

"You..." Borei rubbed his forehead. This is a big deal, why are you so agitated?

"Speaking of which, since we're going to fight demons, are there any succubi?"

"...There should be, but take care of your health." Borei shook his head, somewhat speechless.

Bai Mu continued reviewing the documents.

This is a strange dream controlled by demons. Those demons, for reasons unknown, have been greatly amplifying the influence of the strange dream.

This incident is one of the worst in recent years!

If the amplification of the strange dream was due to an accident, that would be fine. But this time, it was the demon who actively amplified the influence of the strange dream, so the problems here cannot be ignored.

This matter even alarmed the United Nations.

Well... there wasn't originally such a place in the local United Nations, but after various countries came into contact with many different dreams and learned that many different dreams had such a place, they specially created one in reality.

Although the international organization that was created was not quite the same as those in my dreams, and there were many twists and turns in its establishment, and even a war broke out.

At least it was done; the process was bumpy, but the result was good.

With such an international organization, not to mention small countries, it has become easier for large countries to negotiate matters.

Furthermore, these countries can maintain a balance with each other, thus avoiding many conflicts.

While war can bring benefits, it depends on the opponent.

If your opponents are roughly equal in strength, why would you expect to gain anything from a fight? It would not only be foolish but also likely result in mutual destruction.

Bullying weaker countries is all about self-interest.

As for matters between major countries, let's negotiate through this international organization. Anyway, we can bring along other temporary allies during the negotiations.

Occasionally, old rivals can become temporary allies.

Incidentally, when facing major events, we should all work together to deal with them properly, including what happened this time.

The existence of demons is no secret, and some demons are even in political circles, but that doesn't mean that humanity can accept demons causing trouble with impunity.

There are also different factions between native demons and native demons.

To many native demons, those native demons were nothing more than slave monkeys or similar beings.

This further exacerbated the conflict between them.

Just like this incident, when the original demon wanted to cause trouble, another group of demons supported the resolution of the matter.

Some of the intelligence was even provided by those undercover devils who supported the resolution of this matter.

"This is really complicated. The main objective this time is to kill that Dream Source. Isn't that a bit unfair to the Dream Source?"

“Yes, but it would only make things worse if the devil’s plan succeeded.” Borei’s expression was grave.

He disliked this behavior of having to sacrifice someone in exchange for success, but he had no choice but to do it because of his sense of powerlessness.

"You don't need to worry too much about this. In the end, you might not be the one to make the move."

"Hmm... let me take a look first." Bai Mu returned the document. "When do I leave?"

"at any time."

Are there any restrictions on movement?

"No, as long as you don't join the original demons' side, you'll be fine. You have a lot of autonomy in the investigation, but the information from the investigation must be shared with the processing bureau."

"The local processing agency, right?"

Borre gave a barely perceptible smile: "Of course, it's the local handling bureau."

"That's fine then. I'll go out for a bit."

Bai Mu first went to Lily's experience store: "I want to buy things to deal with demons, the more the better." "Don't the processing bureau have them?" Lily asked Bai Mu, slightly puzzled.

"The quota over there is limited."

Lily spread her hands: "I don't have those things here, and I don't want demons to bother me... but I do have some tips for dealing with demons."

"Can I learn?"

"You can learn it, but it takes time."

"how long?"

Lily thought for a moment and asked Bai Mu, "What's your educational background?"

"Um... a college degree that's not very prestigious?"

“Then it will take three to five years to expand the scope of our response,” Lily explained to Bai Mu.

"To deal with demons, besides having the power to restrain them, you need to use the power of demons, and there are many ways to use the power of demons."

Making deals with demons to obtain their souls, or mastering their writing system to acquire their true names, is a method that can be effective at times, but can also backfire.

The types of primal demons in reality are far too diverse. Using the methods described above on the wrong target is like trying to fight Chinese zombies with garlic and silver utensils...

"I do have the Demon Soul."

Lily immediately knew who it was.

"Lexenberg? Are you really not afraid of offending him to death?"

"I'm already prepared to kill him, why would I be afraid of offending him?"

Lily thought for a moment and said, "Lexenberg isn't his real name, but you possess a part of his demonic soul, so you can try using demonic power to fight demons..."

"Wait, won't this method cause you trouble?" Bai Mu suddenly stopped Lily.

Lily smiled broadly: "You bought these things from me, I had no idea you had anyone's demon soul."

"Okay, then we can give it a try."

Lily handed Bai Mu a book that wasn't very thick: "It's only for using the power of the Demon Soul. Don't think about using it for anything else, don't have any sudden inspirations to research other uses, and don't spread it around."

"Thank you, how much?"

"one million."

"Cough cough cough—" Bai Mu suddenly opened his eyes wide: "You and the craftsman had already made an agreement, right?"

"The reward for deciphering just one demonic script exceeds 100,000!"

Lily was introducing Bai Mu to a job that would make money. After listening, Bai Mu casually stuffed the book into the weapon box: "It will be deducted from the money I have here. I'll be away for an uncertain period of time this time, so keep an eye on the house for me."

He did not carry the bodies of Lafayette and Beatrice.

They're going out to fight, and they're fighting demons, so why are they bringing their bodies along?
Quickly make room for any demons that might be squeezed in.

Afterwards, Bai Mu went to the monastery.

This time, Nun Philomia did not clean at the entrance of the convent; White Curtain stood at the door waiting but did not go in.

"Are you here to see Sister Mia?" a child who looked to be about ten years old asked Bai Mu curiously.

"You know me?" Bai Mu pulled a handful of candy from the weapon box.

"Yes, we've all seen you go into Mia's room... Ah."

Bai Mu reached out and flicked the child's head: "You can't say things like that. Here's some candy. Call her for me."

The child reluctantly accepted the candy that Bai Mu offered. He hadn't said anything wrong. If Bai Mu hadn't gone to Philomia's room, how could they have remembered Bai Mu?
Before long, the little nun came running over: "You're not hurt again, are you?"

"No, but I'm about to do something big..."

Before he could finish speaking, he saw the little nun almost roll her eyes: "So how about you take me to find Sister Asha?"

“Sister Asha is not in Rota City for the time being.” Philomia shook her head.

Bai Mu was slightly taken aback and quickly asked, "Where did you go?"

"Sister Asha didn't tell me."

"Oh, I see. Then forget it." Bai Mu gave up on his plan to find Sister Asha. He had only come here to try his luck.

He never has too many ways to deal with demons.

"Wait for me a moment." The little nun ran back to her room and brought back a few small bottles.

"This is holy water I made. It's not poisonous and you can drink it directly."

"Oh? How effective is it?" Bai Mu asked. There were five bottles of this holy water in total. The liquid inside seemed to be infused with fragments of gold, shimmering and shining.

However, each bottle contains much less than a normal bottle of holy water, only one-third of the volume.

"It's much more powerful than holy water, and it can also remove and prevent curses. It can also be used as normal holy water, but that seems a bit wasteful."

The young nun said with some doubt, "Recently, someone sponsored a batch of materials for the convent, so I made a little extra. Don't overthink it."

"I understand." Bai Mu smiled, opened his weapon case, put the bottles of holy water inside, and began to search through them.

The young nun looked wary: "It's free! Just use these things properly, and hopefully they'll keep you from getting hurt."

"No money needed. I bought these on the way. I can't finish them, so I'll leave them for you." Bai Mu took out a large bag of candy, stuffed it into the little nun's arms, and left the monastery.
