Dream Travel

Chapter 422 is highly specialized.

Rota is a newly emerging large city located in the Maple Crown Republic, though smaller in scale than the Imperial Capital.

After all, the capital city is the capital of the empire, while Rota City is a large city in a much larger country.

There are several cities like this in the country.

Those who assisted Alexei came from Rota, but they came from the Rota City Dream Processing Bureau.

The Bureau of Investigation is a place that ordinary people can easily find out about, and its location is even clearly defined. If an ordinary person encounters something related to a strange dream, they can go there directly to report it.

There's really not much mystery about it.

To her world, Rota seemed mysterious because that world was more advanced.

Otherwise, there isn't much difference; we're all human, and most people don't have special powers.

The only difference is that this world has the existence of alternate dreams. These alternate dreams can be considered as other worlds, but they are connected to the source of the alternate dreams, allowing people in the real world to travel there.

However, the people from their world cannot come here normally because it is related to the Source of Other Dreams.

Because the source of the alternate dream in reality has already passed, people in reality can maintain their connection through the alternate dream source and pass through normally.

However, there is no source of other dreams in the dream world that can connect to reality, so they cannot come to this dream world normally.

The only way to reach reality is through a special means, and that means is extremely dangerous.

The White Curtain had been searching for a safe method, and only recently found one...

Lily revealed a lot of information, and Chelsea, knowing all of this, became even more conflicted.

It turns out that Alexei, the powerful figure on the Revolutionary Army's side, is actually from this world. However, since he is the source of another dream, it's acceptable to consider him as someone from her own world.

As for what Alexei was like, Lily told her about Alexei's real-life experiences.

After learning who Alexei was, Chelsea's worries disappeared.

As for what the Rota City Bureau did, she didn't think there was anything wrong with it. If they didn't seek any reward at all, it would make people wonder if they were plotting something bigger.

The purpose of the processing bureau is to acquire resources, specifically a stable resource acquisition area.

Therefore, a stable and well-developed fantasy is particularly important.

The Bureau of Processing assisted Alexei in joining the revolutionary army and establishing a new nation in order to acquire stable resource areas.

Things brought out from dreams are usually greatly damaged, so they generally don't acquire anything like money.

Those things have little practical use and take up a lot of space, and in order to acquire more resources, the Bureau will only make the new country that Alexei cares about develop better.

Chelsea, within half a day of landing, had already investigated Rota's intelligence.

All her worries stemmed from her lack of understanding of Rota. Now that she knows, she realizes that her worries were unnecessary.

If she had known all this, she wouldn't have come here.

After all, there are still many places in the new country that need her.

But now that we're here, going back won't be so easy.

But perhaps after arriving in this place, she can rediscover her original aspirations?

After all, before joining the revolutionary army, she wanted to live the life of a rich wife... It was only after witnessing too many dark secrets of the empire that she chose to join the revolutionary army.

So what does Bai Mu do on a daily basis?

Chelsea looked at the white screen. While Lily was revealing those details, she had also tried to gather other information.

But Lily was more professional in this area, and the information she revealed was basically what she wanted to know.

Lily has not revealed much about herself. Chelsea only knows that Lily runs a Dream Experience Store, which specializes in selling Dream-related items or replicas.

In addition, it involves handling some special matters, but these matters are only open to specific people.

The white curtain belongs to a specific group of people.

Lily and White Curtain appear to be collaborators.

Bai Mu often goes to the so-called 'other dreams' and then asks Lily to deal with the items obtained from those dreams.

Are they considered "objects" from another dream?
Looking at the huge pile of ingredients that Bai Mu brought back, this doesn't seem like something human traffickers would do, does it?

Moreover, when Lily explained the dream, she had already dispelled her concerns in this regard.

Bringing people out of a dream is much more expensive than bringing other items, but if the person brought out is an ordinary person in the dream, they will be no different from an ordinary person in reality.

They won't be considered special just because they come from another dream.

Without special connections, if you get caught after arriving here, you'll generally just go through the motions.

After confirming that they are not dangerous individuals, they undergo further medical examinations, obtain identification documents, and then settle in the city.

Then I started a new way of making a living.

Those who come from other dreams will not receive preferential treatment in all walks of life, unless they are already engaged in certain research work within the dream itself.

Finding a job that matches your major can lead to significant advantages.

These types of people generally don't need to worry about finding a job that matches their major; they have people to arrange it for them.

And what are they capable of?
Hmm... it can kill people.

This isn't a good world to live in; it has a more robust legal system and is much better developed than her world.

The knowledge she possessed was useful, but not particularly useful. A life for a life; law enforcement should handle murderers, not assassins who are more skilled at killing.

Therefore, smuggling people is a thankless and arduous task for Dreamwalkers.

The Dreamwalker brought out a gem with special powers from a dream, and he earned more than someone who smuggled it out.

So, is Bai Mu's specific job related to dream-related activities?
So, if you're looking to make a living in this world, going back to your old profession on the White Curtain side isn't out of the question.

Since Bai Mu is a dream walker who frequently encounters other dreams, and his abilities are excellent enough.

She's clearly the type who gets a lot of money for little work; besides killing, she could also be a good housekeeper...

Before joining the revolutionary army, she worked in the local prefect's office due to her outstanding academic performance.

Therefore, having one more butler on the White Curtain side is also acceptable.

At least when the white curtain isn't there, someone can properly communicate with Lily, right?

Chelsea glanced briefly at Leone.

At this moment, Leone was grinning foolishly, because without any worries about the future, she was no longer concerned about her life.

Those who get to eat early have it easy.

As for Akame and Kurome, they came here as 'servants', so there's nothing to worry about.

Mine brought the start-up capital in advance, so there wasn't much to worry about.

Her initial purpose was to investigate Rota, so she didn't bring much with her when she came here.

If it weren't for being a precaution, I wouldn't even carry my Imperial Arms, lest I lose them in case of an accident.

But since Mine had already brought it, she then considered bringing it as well.

With her Imperial Arms, making money is easy, but the methods aren't exactly honorable. Plus, she has to consider local laws, so it would be better to find a more stable identity.

Chelsea considered working for Lily, but ultimately decided against it.

After a brief encounter, she realized that Lily was not a simple person. Working for her was no problem, but was it better to go there than to stay in Bai Mu?

"When are we going to find the craftsman you know?" Mine couldn't help but ask after Lily and White Curtain finished their conversation.

"It's too late now, let's wait until tomorrow." Bai Mu glanced at the sky and began to prepare the ingredients.

He wanted to satisfy his appetite.

"Can you finish it all?" Mine initially thought that the ingredients Bai Mu had prepared were fine; with so many people here, it was normal to prepare more ingredients.

But the white curtain seems to indicate that the plan is to only prepare one meal!

"Of course we can finish it," Bai Mu replied affirmatively.

After finishing her meal, Lily looked out the window and said to Bai Mu, "It's so late. For my safety, please take me home."

“Okay.” Bai Mu stood up, not taking the car keys Lily handed him: “I’ll be going out again soon, you can keep them.”

The car was driven with a white curtain on.

On the way, Lily said to Bai Mu, "You've found some good girls. I've talked to them for you, and they won't be thinking of going somewhere else."

"What did you talk about with them?" Bai Mu then realized that when Lily was talking to them, besides talking about Rota, she also talked about other things.

"It's perfectly normal. After they come here, they need to make a living, right? Or did you bring them back just for fun?"

"Well, you can't say that. Something happened, and I have to take responsibility."

“Then they are worth it for you to do this.” Lily nodded. She had confirmed through conversation that the people Bai Mu brought back were not the kind of 'gold diggers'.

They are highly professional and capable of handling matters that do not require special powers.

As for what kind of professional skills... well, murder.

If Bai Mu ever dislikes an ordinary person and doesn't want to take action himself, he can simply pass the matter on to the person he brought back.

However, Bai Mu will most likely not cause trouble for ordinary people, nor will he commit murder of an entire family over trivial matters.

But since they're here, they should at least do something...

If Bai Mu is willing to let them work for her, Lily can find them suitable 'positions'.

But Leone will follow the White Curtain, not to mention Kurome and Akame, who see themselves as subordinates who do the work.

As long as Bai Mu doesn't do anything inhumane, they won't have any problems.

If Akame isn't there, and only Kurome is there, then even if Shiro doesn't do anything, it's not a big problem.

But things are different after adding Akame.

Mine is actually easy to handle; she's just a young girl who doesn't value friendship.

The people she is most familiar with in this world are Leone and others.

It's unlikely she'll run away. Chelsea is different; she has strong goals, but those initial strong goals have been shattered by Lily.

After Chelsea confirms that the information Lily revealed is correct, she will have to consider how to live in this world.

Lily appropriately revealed the income of Dreamwalkers, using the White Curtain as an example.
