Dream Travel

Chapter 462 New Discovery

After returning, Bai Mu retrieved the Dream Erosion Crystal that had appeared with his return.

The number of 39 surprised him somewhat.

White Curtain didn't do much on River's side, yet they obtained such a large quantity of Dream Erosion Crystals this time.
The Dream Erosion Crystals he obtained were of the same grade except for their color.

The sheer number of Dream Erosion Crystals made Bai Mu ponder. He realized that, aside from directly impacting the Dream World, it seemed that influencing the Dream Source would yield even simpler results.
There are no more demons or awakened beings on the island over there.

To defeat a similar being, such as the Descendants of the Dragon, he would have to go to the War-Torn Continent.

However, being far away from the influence of the Source of Other Dreams makes it difficult to carry out his plans even if he goes there.

Therefore, White Curtain's plan for dealing with River's strange dream was to maximize sales volume.

Once the residual dream erosion on your body is digested, you can move on directly.

But the new discovery opened up a whole new world for Bai Mu. Could it really be like this?

White Curtain can strike hard against those bad dream sources, but it can help those dream sources that yearn for an ideal 'self' since it has access to them.

In high spirits, Bai Mu carried the box and left, and no one from the processing bureau stopped him.

Although Bai Mu is not a formal employee, he is already a regular here.

Moreover, White Curtain's actions had been reported, and Evefeya was also involved in the matter, so no one would say anything if he left now.

Borre also learned about what was happening here.

He simply nodded, indicating to his subordinates that he understood.

What Bai Mu is doing now, the Bureau of Justice might need Bai Mu's help in the future.

After all, in a well-developed alternate dream, there are indeed many things worth developing and nurturing in reality.

Evefeya's return occurred not long after the white curtain was drawn.

Upon returning, she eagerly took the white curtain to her home and began the awakening process.

After Denise woke up, she looked around at her surroundings and her usual smile returned to her face: "This is where you live?"

“That’s right, let’s have a physical examination first.” Evereya nodded and led Denise into the laboratory.

She was going to give Denise a full check-up to determine her condition and see if she was being negatively affected by the Dream Erosion.

The test results were the same as those of Leone and the others.

"What's wrong?" Denise asked Everea, who was deep in thought, after she finished dressing.

Evefeya said, "He's too special... I've prepared his identity documents, you should be able to understand them. You can experience life here first, and if you think it's fine, I'll entrust him with the task again."

"So what should I do as the first step?"

"Let's go shopping, I'll go with you."

Evefeya changed her clothes and asked White Curtain, who was still there, "Do you want to come with me?"

"I won't go; I have some other things to do."

The white curtain spoke to Denise and Evefeya, who were standing together, saying that the clothes Denise was wearing must have been prepared in advance by Evefeya.

After changing her clothes, she looked just like a local unless she said so.

"Okay, remember to contact me if you need anything."

Evefeya didn't force the issue. Although she also wanted to develop a relationship with Bai Mu, Bai Mu had things to do, so she shouldn't bother him in a hasty manner.

Bai Mu returned to his home and sat lazily on the sofa.

"When did you get back?" Chelsea asked with a smile as she placed a glass of water on the table in front of Bai Mu.

"They just got back a short while ago, and the others went shopping?"

Chelsea nodded, then said, "Would you like to know what has happened during this time?"

"Let's talk about it later, I need to take a nap." Bai Mu drank half a glass of water.

This time he's been gone for more than a few months, and that's basically all that's happened in his family.

While he was dozing off, he summoned Beatrice and let her move around freely. White Curtain slept until the afternoon.

Then a few noises arose.

Once awake, the white curtain, unable to fall back asleep, followed the sound and found Akame and the others wearing shorts and sports vests.

There's no air conditioning here, and even though the room is well-ventilated, it's still quite hot to exercise in.

Bai Mu pondered whether or not to install an air conditioner...

Things that are inexpensive on Earth are a different story here.

"Good afternoon," Bai Mu greeted them, leaning against the doorframe.

He didn't disturb their daily training, but instead went to check out the new alchemy workshop. Beatrice was very satisfied with the new workshop; their work efficiency had improved significantly...

Although she mainly makes alchemical potions, these are one of White Curtain's sources of income.

Not only that, the white curtain also saw Beatrice's body submerged in a pale green liquid.

This immersion had been going on in reality for more than half a month, and Beatrice had started doing it before White Curtain went to River's dream.

Noticing the white curtain's gaze, Atrist quickly said, "After this treatment, my body will be able to produce higher quality alchemical potions."

"That's not that important, just make sure it's not detected by the defense protocol."

“Of course it won’t be detected. I wouldn’t make such a mistake.” Atreus looked at her body, a hint of fascination in her eyes. With her experience dealing with Lafayette’s body and her knowledge of demons, Atreus made some special adjustments to her own body.

This is a 'demonization' leaning towards a succubus; even before the final steps are completed, her body already possesses a unique allure.

However, the white curtain didn't seem to be attracted.

This made Beatrice a little melancholy. There were too many good-looking people around Bai Mu, and even if she used some tricks, the effect was not ideal.

However, she will not give up easily.

"If you're not in a hurry, deal with these Dream Erosion Crystals first."

"it is good."

When Atreus arrived at White Curtain's bedroom with her tools and saw the pile of Dream Erosion Crystals, her eyes twitched slightly.

Hundreds of Dream Erosion Crystals, and they are all top-quality Dream Erosion Crystals that are hard to find on the market.

Each one of these would be priceless and unavailable elsewhere, but here in Bai Mu's shop, they're displayed like cheap street vendor goods.

"Use them all?" Beatrice felt like one of the most special people.

Aside from Bai Mu, who else could access so many high-quality Dream Erosion Crystals?

"We used them all," Bai Mu said decisively.

This dream-erosion crystal is not needed to deal with those who come from other dreams.

When dealing with them, the lower the quality of the Dream Erosion Crystals used, the better.

"Then I'll start."

Without hesitation, Atreus picked up a Dream Erosion Crystal and ground it into the Dream Erosion Greatsword.

All 39 Dream Erosion Crystals were ground into the Dream Erosion Greatsword.

At first, Beatrice was quite casual, but as the amount of Dream Erosion Crystals she invested increased, she became increasingly apprehensive.

Sublimated Dream Erosion items may not be that rare, but what about those that have undergone secondary sublimation?
She had never seen it, and even in terms of hearsay, it was only 'theoretical'.

Now, a dream-eroded item that appears to be a second sublimation is about to appear.

When the last few Dream Erosion Crystals were used, Atristes felt the abnormal weight generated by the Dream Erosion Greatsword.

Although the sword did not glow, the air on the surface of the blade began to distort when it was ground into the Dream Erosion Crystal.

The weapon gave Beatrice the feeling that it was about to explode.

However, as the Dream Erosion Crystals were subsequently ground in, even though the surface of the sword was distorted, the overall structure remained stable.

The shared origin of the Dream Erosion Crystals, coupled with their high quality, ensures that there will be almost no unexpected issues when enhancing White Curtain's Dream Erosion equipment.

"There was no second sublimation." Beatrice looked at the Dream Eater Greatsword with regret. She had thought she would be able to witness it.

"It'll be soon, next one."

Then there are the weapon case and the Spirit Pivot. Including the previously accumulated Dream Erosion Crystals, there are now a total of 46, which White Curtain will distribute evenly.

The result was that the two sublimated Dream Erosion items remained unchanged.

Clearly, the Dream-Eroded item will not exhibit any abnormalities until the secondary sublimation process reaches a certain level.

After his condensed longsword was enhanced by 28 Dream Erosion Crystals, a slight distortion appeared on the hilt, but it was much weaker than the distortion exhibited by the Dream Erosion Greatsword.

The Dream Erosion Camera and the storage disk were made from the same Dream Erosion Crystal, which consisted of only 7 crystals. One crystal was kept by the White Curtain, and the rest were used equally. After that, neither of the two items showed any abnormalities.

"It seems like we can't obtain Dream Erosion Crystals normally anymore, right?" Beatrice asked White Curtain, looking at the Dream Erosion Crystals placed next to the Starfall Gloves.

Some Dream Erosion Crystals can be obtained by White Veil frequently, while others he no longer has the opportunity to obtain.

Like the Holy Silver Pistol, Black Stone, and Combination Knife, these are all Dream Erosion Crystals of the same origin.

Since the conditions for accessing that otherworldly hell were no longer available, Bai Mu lost the opportunity to obtain the same-origin Dream Erosion Crystal.

As for the Meteorite Gloves, these gloves are made of meteorite iron. If Bai Mu wants to obtain the Origin Dream Erosion Crystal, he needs to go back to the Desert Kingdom, then to the local Dream Graveyard, and find the Dream Source.

This round trip will take a lot of time.

"Take it slow. The Dream Source isn't going anywhere. Use these first, or there won't be another chance. Use the extra Dream Erosion Crystals here later."

"..." Atrist looked at the 21 Dream Erosion Crystals and began to enhance them.

She didn't feel much pressure handling the Dream Erosion Crystals of the same origin, but she was really worried that using too many of the different origin ones might cause the Dream Erosion items to explode.

If the artifact containing a large amount of dream erosion explodes, it will surely be a major disaster.

She might not die. If Bai Mu were nearby, Bai Mu might be dead. Thinking of this, Beatrice spoke up.

"At that time, you should have found someone with better skills to operate it, and for safety reasons, you should have stayed away from the operation site during the operation."

Bai Mu knew what Beatrice was worried about, but the fact that she didn't upgrade the items she had that could be further enhanced made her even more upset.

Given the opportunity and the means, he would still immediately upgrade the Dream Erosion items in his possession, but he hated 'failed enhancement'.

Therefore, when promoting someone, he will try to do so under the best possible conditions.

It's a pity that the investment won't yield results until the Dream Erosion items have been fully sublimated. Otherwise, his Dream Erosion equipment would at least be considered to have reached the 'half-step second sublimation' level, right?
However, if a Dream-Eroded item does not undergo a sublimation, it cannot be considered a qualitative change, or even an 'improvement'. Only after accumulating to the point of qualitative change will the improvement become apparent.

No matter how many Dream Erosion Crystals you invest before that, the strength of the Dream Erosion effect on Dream Erosion equipment will not change.

Having used so much Dream Eclipse equipment, Bai Mu already knows this all too well.
