There's a big problem with dreams in this world.

However, he had secretly tampered with the ritual. After the summoned creature was summoned, the summoner's contract would fall on Anna, but it was just an empty shell.

Although he could maintain some connection with the summoned creatures, he had no way to command them to fight; the true core was in his hands.

If the girl dies in the end, he will eventually obtain the empty shell of the summoning contract.

However, this guy was obviously doing this for the first time and had no experience at all. He didn't expect the priest to act so quickly and catch him red-handed.

"I'm not begging you to let me go, but since I've been so cooperative, could you let me go to jail? I can help you restore that little girl's consciousness," the male mage said to the priest.

After hesitating for a moment, the priest was about to speak when he suddenly noticed that the male mage's expression was a little strange.

A sudden sense of crisis surged into his heart, and the next moment, the male mage's body rapidly swelled up.

"Go to hell, all of you!"

The male mage held a short-handled wooden staff in his hand, from which emerald green vines flew out and wrapped around the people in the cave.

The hunter's left leg accidentally got tangled in the vine. Although the priest reacted quickly and cut the vine, the hunter's left leg inevitably turned into wood.

The attack that the hunter couldn't dodge, the girl naturally couldn't dodge either. The priest glanced at the male mage who was about to explode, a trace of pity flashed in his eyes, and then he grabbed Anna and carried the hunter away from the cave quickly.

"boom!"

The terrifying elemental explosion caused the entire cave to collapse, and without a doubt, the girl in the video was dead beyond any doubt, and the dream ended on the spot.

The sudden reversal was completely unexpected for Lu Qing. The male mage, who was planning to surrender just a second ago, suddenly retaliated and killed the girl.

This seems rather strange and doesn't make logical sense; the male mage doesn't seem to be acting either.

Lu Qing rewound the video and suddenly noticed that a dark shadow flashed past the male mage's eyes a second before he launched his critical attack.

Lu Qing slowed down the video playback speed and watched it again, somewhat unsure of what to say:

"Is that... a crow?"

Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Clever Cloak

"Why are there crows appearing in the pupils? What does this signify?"

There's no point in watching the rest of the video, because what happens next is when Lu Qing re-enters the Misty Town after her time travel.

As expected, the previous owner of the body failed in the dream, and then due to some special reasons, Lu Qing was ultimately transported to another world.

The ending of this dream is clearly abnormal; logically, the dream should have ended the moment the male mage was subdued.

The opponent's sudden outburst at the last moment was completely illogical.

This is possible if it's a high-level dream, because high-level dreams are inherently illogical.

However, lower-level dreams tend to be more logical, and the sudden outburst at the end is completely incomprehensible.

"Ugh, this is so annoying, something just feels off."

Patting her face, Lu Qing could only helplessly put the matter out of her mind and start thinking about whether or not to post the video.

The beginning of this video is quite boring; it's just the gameplay of an average new player entering the dream world for the first time.

But when the dream fails once and you try to enter it a second time, everything becomes interesting.

Whether it's the seemingly different female lead or the fact that you have to complete the game again with increased difficulty, both are quite appealing.

Even if it doesn't catch fire, there's no loss, right?

"Let's talk about it later."

After closing the video website, Lu Qing looked at the [Creation System] button.

According to information from the Lu Qing Ai forum, the creation system also has three subcategories.

[Dream Space] [Artificial Dream] [Creative Space]

This creation system is something only the wealthy can afford to play with.

Of course, the money here refers to Dream Coins.

The creation system, as the name suggests, is used for creation.

Players can enter the creation space and create freely. The created works can then be published in the dream space.

As for the works, there's everything: novels, music, short stories—it's basically the entertainment section of the dream game, and everything on it is free.

These are all secondary; in fact, the most important function is the artificial dream system.

Artificial dreams, as the name suggests, are dreams created by humans. They are dreams created by players who spend a lot of dream coins and finally pass the game system's review.

Entering these dreams requires a ticket, and with her current dream currency, even if she wanted to go in, she could probably only enter the lowest-level dream.

"I don't need this system right now."

Shaking her head, Lu Qing didn't open the creation system. Instead, she returned to the wooden table in the cabin to carefully examine the dream rewards she had received.

First up was the experience gift pack. Lu Qing reached out and picked up the pack. After pausing for a second on the huge "S" on the pack, she decisively opened it.

Congratulations! You have gained 1695 experience points!

[You've leveled up! Your current level is 2, and you've gained 10 attribute points!]

"Promoted two levels."

Lu Qing was somewhat surprised, not expecting that an S-level gift pack could provide such a generous amount of experience points.

It seems she gains five attribute points for each level she gains, and combined with the attribute points she earned from completing the game, she now has 15 attribute points.

Instead of rushing to upgrade herself, Lu Qing excitedly licked the corner of her mouth, her small tongue instantly making her lips red.

She picked up the white skill card and, following the instructions online, pointed it at her forehead.

The next moment, the skill card disappeared from her hand, turning into a pale white light that enveloped Lu Qing.

[Randomly selecting skills from the skill library...]

[Skill selection complete, please select!]

[1. Basic Toxin Resistance: Your body has adapted to toxins to a certain extent and is immune to some weak poisons.]

2. Roll: A quick roll to the side, suitable for avoiding car accidents, but don't try to use this skill in actual combat, as it doesn't teach you how to get up quickly.

3. Precision: You have more precise control over your body than the average person; for example, you can bend your little finger while simultaneously raising your ring finger.

4. High jump: By utilizing the full strength of the body, one can jump to unexpected heights.

"......"

Lu Qing looked at the four skills that popped up and was somewhat speechless.

The basic poison resistance and accuracy are one thing, but the roll and high jump are just laughable filler.

This roll isn't one of those god-tier skills from a game, because it doesn't allow the user to quickly get up after rolling...

As for high jump, needless to say, it might be useful in some situations, but instead of this skill, wouldn't it be better to just increase my physical strength?

The remaining two skills are basic poison resistance and accuracy.

After thinking for a while, Lu Qing decided to choose Precision, not for any particular reason, but simply because this skill could increase the dexterity of her fingers.

This is extremely helpful for her to control throwing knives and threads. When it comes to precision, basic poison resistance is unnecessary!

Congratulations on learning the skill: Precision!

Looking at the information displayed on the notice board, Lu Qing felt that her body seemed to have undergone some changes.

She raised her palm and tried to bend her little finger down, and sure enough, her ring finger showed no intention of following suit.

Of course, this skill improvement doesn't just affect the fingers, but the most obvious improvement is in the fingers.

"Hmm, there's one last reward left."

Lu Qing picked up the blue item card on the table and then clicked the "use" button on the top of the item card.

[You have used a blue item card. Drawing items for you is in progress...]

[Item draw complete!]

Congratulations! You have obtained the item: Agility Cloak!

"Can't I choose the items I get from the item card?"

Lu Qing thought with a hint of regret.

Clearing her mind of thoughts, Lu Qing checked the cloak's attributes.

【Item Name: Agile Cloak】

[Item Quality: Blue]

[Description: This is a light blue cloak made of extremely durable fabric, offering a degree of protection. Inside the cloak, three enchanted runes have been inscribed by a professional enchanter.]

Of course, the most eye-catching feature is the infamous Dark Blade organization emblem on the cloak!

[Skills: Wind Speed, Stealth, Tenacity, Hidden Blade Impact.]

[Wind Speed: The Wind Speed ​​enchantment will make you extremely sensitive to wind and increase your movement speed.]

[Stealth: If you want, no one can find your tracks.]

[Resilience: Even the sharpest steel battle axe couldn't leave a single mark on this cloak!]

[Dark Blade Strike: Use wind element to grant yourself a burst of speed; no enemy can escape your grasp!]

[Note: No one can escape me!]

Chapter Thirty-Eight: The First Card

"A nimble cloak? I also have a nimble cape, the kind that adds critical hits," Lu Qing said half-jokingly.

Opening her backpack, Lu Qing took out the cloak she had just drawn, and a light blue cloak appeared out of thin air in her hand.

It feels slippery to the touch. If someone catches you while you're running away, you might not be able to hold on because it's too slippery.

Draping the cloak over her shoulders and fastening the buttons in front of her clothes, Lu Qing looked around curiously, wanting to know what she looked like.

However, there were no mirrors or glass windows inside the wooden house.

"That's right!"
