Learn one small skill every day

"No! I also remember the population and number of wheels of the Sterman where Holke is, and Kaguya is on the moon. Send someone to the moon to find her. Also, remember to have the people on the moon send me the image of the pile of square boxes that the Ulai civilization launched into space. Oh, and you can also take a picture of that mountain of flesh that the Ulai civilization is all mixed up in, so I can keep it as a souvenir."

"Also remember to preserve the dimensions of the giant steam engine on the Stet; these are valuable knowledge resources for our Endless Energy."

"The Yala civilization that Shiyan is in charge of may be in a cycle. The teams sent to the Yala civilization need to provide feedback regularly, otherwise we won't know if they have fallen into the cycle."

Bai Miao sat in the captain's cabin, using the desktop computer to call up all the ministers, and then issued instructions one by one.

Each minister's reaction upon receiving the instructions requires a reasonable response from Nightmare.

"This phone allows me to receive messages from myself over the next few days, and the printer allows me to assess the health status of the relevant crew members over the next seven days."

Bai Miao then turned his attention to two small props on the captain's table.

Tu Shanqing watched Bai Miao's performance quietly.

The way the nightmare was constantly refreshed and new information was generated through Bai Miao's memories was something that even Tu Shanqing found somewhat unexpected.

Tu Shanqing's original plan was to personally sink the ship and kill everyone when Bai Miao really didn't know how to proceed.

This means that starting the nightmare anew would require a lot of effort to build the scene.

Nightmares are not perfect from the beginning.

Just like when Bai Miao first entered the nightmare, he could clearly feel that the movement of the clouds in the sky was wrong, as well as the red text indicating the warning.

These things were only slowly repaired in the subsequent nightmares.

"Emma, ​​answer me a question."

Bai Miao suddenly thought of another use for nightmares.

"Captain... what is it you want to ask now... you've issued too many orders in a short period of time. The Endless Energy is already operating at high intensity, with all departments running at full capacity..."

"If I suddenly leave without a word, leaving you with nothing but an empty shell, how would you react?"

This is a question Bai Miao dares not ask in reality.

Nightmare, relying on Bai Miao's memories, created such a condition for Bai Miao.

However, Emma's answer must have contained Bai Miao's own subjective impressions.

But that's not important; Bai Miao only wanted a reference.

"me……"

Emma's expression turned extremely pained.

“There’s a conflict. The Emma you remember and the Emma you heard reacting to don’t seem like something a person could do. She was also influenced by an external force during her transformation, a force that none of us know about. So Nightmare doesn’t know how to answer your question.”

Bai Miao only learned of Emma's madness from the news about the Zero Hour Lock.

But Bai Miao didn't know the specific reason; he only made a rough guess.

Such speculation is not the memory that Bai Miao actually possesses. What Bai Miao actually knows is that Emma's personality has changed drastically, but he knows nothing about the reason.

Bai Miao was actually quite looking forward to the nightmare being able to piece together Emma's most reasonable reaction based on the various memories in his mind.

This way, I can understand exactly what happened after I left.

But clearly, nightmares can't do that.

The question Bai Miao most wanted his nightmare to answer also became the last straw that broke the camel's back.

"Crack...!"

A mirror-like crack appeared before his eyes, and the Endless Energy Ship shattered into pieces before Bai Miao's gaze.

Among the fragments, Bai Miao saw a large number of his own memory fragments.

Some work to earn a living, while others hone the various skills they've acquired from the system.

As the fragments of memory dissipated into the void, all that remained before Bai Miao's eyes was darkness.

Tu Shanqing did not disappear, but stood beside Bai Miao without leaving his side.

"You can use your Qi Observation Technique now."

Following Tu Shanqing's prompting, Bai Miao activated his Qi Observation Technique.

Bai Miao saw wisps of pale purple smoke appearing in the darkness.

The smoke trails extended in different directions, but they all converged at one point.

Bai Miao slowly walked towards the intersection of all the smoke.

But there I saw a baby stroller.

"Is this the source of the nightmare?"

Pale purple smoke rose from the center of the stroller and spread in all directions, with each wisp of smoke corresponding to a patient suffering from nightmare disorder.

Now, I have escaped the nightmare that was constructed and found its root cause.

"Should I smash it?"

Tu Shanqing was eager to try.

"Something's coming."

A cloud of scarlet mist was falling from above.

Or perhaps it came from underground.

Here, altitude and orientation are meaningless.

"I'll give it a try first."

Bai Miao controlled his spiritual body, raised the holy sword, and charged towards the cloud of mist.

"Ding!"

The sound of metal clashing together rang out, a sound that made one's gums ache.

"It seems to have weapons as well, more than one."

In the darkness, a tall figure, dragging two curved swords, stood guard in front of the baby carriage.

It was something that looked like countless balls of thread tangled together, and Bai Miao could hardly make out its exact shape.

It can only be understood conceptually that there is something here, and it has weapons, with the purpose of protecting the stroller from being destroyed by itself.

"Family members..."

Bai Miao recalled the events surrounding Margaret's family.

At that time, Mrs. Margaret stood guard beside Miss Margaret's unborn child.

But now the battlefield has completely transformed into the spiritual world.

The baby in the stroller must also be the offspring of some being.

Just as Tu Shanqing said before she left, everyone vying for the existence of Yar City wanted to have their own offspring.

The thing in Miss Margaret's belly must be something similar.

This offspring should not be capable of fighting. The third layer that Favre mentioned refers to this family member.

"Don't interfere. Let me test my fighting ability."

Bai Miao told Tu Shanqing to rest aside while he used his spiritual form to fight the subordinate alone.

The opponent's body shape was intricate and complex, making it difficult for Bai Miao to determine where to strike. Fortunately, he had the ability to sense killing intent and knew where the opponent's blade was.

Controlling the spiritual entity in battle feels incredibly exhilarating, even more so than moving around on your own.

Freed from the limitations of the body's nerve transmission, Bai Miao truly achieved the ability to execute commands precisely. With just a thought, his spiritual body could perfectly carry out the task and even make adjustments on the spot.

"boom!"

"Den!"

Bai Miao swung his holy sword faster and faster, so fast that his followers couldn't respond properly and could only dodge using his elusive figure.

"Want to run? Then go ahead and run."

After his kin retreated, Bai Miao immediately changed his target and slashed fiercely at the baby carriage!

"puff!"

The sword cleaved the baby carriage in two, but Bai Miao felt no pain whatsoever as if his flesh had been struck.

Something's not right... Did I hit anything?

The family members trembled violently, as if an invisible hand was kneading them together. Wisps of purple smoke billowed outwards from the baby carriage. Only then did Bai Miao realize that the smoke he had seen at the beginning was not spreading outwards, but converging towards the baby carriage.

It is consuming these nightmare sufferers.

A sense of realization dawned on Bai Miao.

It turns out there was no baby in the stroller; the nightmares were a result of the baby's birth.

However, this ceremony was disrupted by Bai Miao.

The thought that he might have offended the being who caused the nightmare made Bai Miao feel a little uneasy.

However, Bai Miao soon had an even bolder idea.

If that guy really dares to come, shouldn't we just grab Lecter and Favre and kill him?

If the three of us were together, wouldn't we be able to kill everyone in Yar City?

"Rumble, rumble..."

A tremor came from beneath my feet, and the surrounding darkness gradually faded away.

Tu Shanqing patted Bai Miao on the shoulder, and Bai Miao also noticed that the last trace of divine soul left behind by Tu Shanqing was on the verge of dissipating.

"Although I am just a wisp of divine soul, in this very last moment, my true form left you with a message."

"There are countless possibilities in the vast expanse of time and space. All you have to do is believe that you are unique."

"Bai, you will be the only one."
