Chapter 4435 "Home"
What should we do next?
It was Sean's first time entering the instance, and he was curious about everything around him. In particular, this was "Dawn City," a city he should be very familiar with, but because he had forgotten too much, it was actually still somewhat unfamiliar.
“I see the area objective is for us to collect more Dawn Points. Should we go find Dreambubble now?” Sean asked.
Blanche: "We'll talk about the dream bubble when we encounter it. Right now, the most important thing is to reunite with the others and find a way to leave this place."
I was trapped in the Uriel instance before, which was against my will.
Having finally gotten a chance to leave, Blanche didn't want to be trapped in "Dawn's Dream" again... You see, she hadn't even been inside the Word Marsh since she got it; moreover, Angel had said that he had left her a small courtyard in the Word Marsh, which meant she had a home, and she was waiting to decorate her new home!
So, although she was somewhat curious about "Dawn Dream," what she really wanted was to leave and go out to see the world.
“That’s true.” Sean thought for a moment and nodded. “Although the others didn’t fall into the river, they might have ended up in some dangerous situations.”
"Meeting up sooner will allow us to check on everyone's situation."
After a pause, Sean asked, "So, who should we go find first?"
Blanche thought for a moment: "Let Lianlian lead the way... Lianlian, take us to the nearest pillar of light."
The Lonely Peak Anchor Point was actually the place she most wanted to visit, where, barring any unforeseen circumstances, Professor Camillo was located; unfortunately, the Lonely Peak Anchor Point was very far from here.
There are actually several beams of light nearby, so it's better to leave the isolated peak anchor point for later.
Moreover, given Camillo's initiative, he might have already found him before they even went to the Lone Peak Anchor Point.
"Go for it, Lianlian."
"In the name of the summoner Vavacili, I command you to pursue the lightning!"
Blanche's expression suddenly changed. She put on sunglasses, draped her cloak back over her shoulders, and then pointed her sword finger towards the sky.
Lianlian chirped in perfect unison, soared into the sky, and circled a few times after reaching a high altitude, seemingly observing the direction of other beams of light.
A moment later, it drooped down, let out a few short chirps, and flew forward a few meters, seemingly leading the way for them.
Blanche turned to Sean: "Let's go, my old friend, the lost priest who has fallen into the abyss."
Sean: "...?"
What kind of show is this?
How come you suddenly look like a different person when you put on sunglasses?
This is... the character Blanche likes to play, which Mr. Camillo mentioned before?
Sean doesn't mind Blanche playing a strange character, but the question is, how is he supposed to respond now?
"What... should I do now?" Sean didn't know how to react for a moment, so he simply asked directly.
"What are we doing?" Blanche gently removed half of her sunglasses and looked Sean up and down. "Of course, we're going with Lianlian... But before that, let's change our clothes first."
"Change clothes? Do I want to change too?" Sean pointed at himself, looking completely innocent.
"What are you thinking? You're all soaked, aren't you going to change?" Before Sean could answer, Blanche pulled directly into the air.
In an instant, a woolen coat, clearly in the style of a formal dress, was pulled out of thin air by her.
“Here, change into this.” Blanche handed the coat to Sean and then pulled out a pair of trousers for him. “Luckily, when I came here before, I went to Uriel’s attic and put all his clothes into Snow Owl’s wardrobe. You’re about the same size as him, so you should be able to wear them.”
Sean was stunned for a moment, then whispered his thanks.
He did not refuse Blanche's kindness, took the clothes and went around the corner. A moment later, Sean returned, now dressed in new clothes.
Originally, Sean was wearing a tattered divine robe, but thanks to his tall stature and extraordinary temperament, he did not appear destitute, though he still looked somewhat shabby.
Now, dressed in a formal coat and casually slicking back his damp hair to create a slicked-back style, his appearance is refreshingly different from his not-so-ugly features.
Seeing this, Blanche couldn't help but raise an eyebrow: "Now I can't call you the lost priest anymore, but should call you... the noble young master returning from the banquet?"
Sean's expression was subtle: "...Should I cooperate now?"
Blanche: "???"
Seeing that Blanche didn't react, Sean thought for a moment and said, "My old friend, the Queen of Birds in Sunglasses, is there anything I can do for you?"
Blanche: "..." She didn't understand what Sean meant by "cooperation" before, but she didn't expect it to mean cooperating with her acting?
Looking at Sean's pleading expression, Blanche remained silent for a long time before finally taking off her sunglasses, temporarily switching out of her Vavacili persona, and saying, "Actually, you don't need to cooperate with me."
Sean looked puzzled. Was my acting bad?
Blanche's eyes darted around: "While I sometimes wish someone would respond to me when I'm putting on a persona, the prerequisite is that the other person knows what I'm acting out..."
In short: If you're not a fan of the same thing, don't get involved.
Sean nodded silently.
Blanche: "Next time I'll play a character you know, and then we'll clash again."
Sean really wanted to say: No need.
He really didn't want to act, but he felt that if he didn't accept Blanche's role, the atmosphere would be awkward.
"Uh, okay."
Blanche: "Then it's settled."
After speaking, Blanche coughed and put her sunglasses back on: "Let's go, priest reborn from the ashes, let's go find the other old buddies!"
Blanche strode toward the place that seemed to be lingering in the distance.
Sean quickly followed.
Over the next few minutes, Lianlian would occasionally fly up into the sky and then fly down to lead the way.
Soon after, near a cluster of pointed buildings, they encountered the third anchor point manager... Uriel.
According to Uriel himself, he was the manager of "Tower Anchor Point".
The landing point was in a small church.
“Speaking of which, this church is also a church of the Church of Radiance. I used to worship here.” Uriel said, a hint of nostalgia on his face.
"Perhaps that's why I was able to resonate successfully with the tower's anchor point?"
After Uriel finished speaking, he inquired about the condition of Blanche and Sean.
When Uriel learned that Sean's landing point was actually in the center of the River of Trouble, he showed a look of sympathy. Then, Uriel suddenly thought of the Cloud Wind Anchor Point corresponding to Rigota, and his expression immediately became tense.
Blanche knew exactly what he was thinking and quickly said, "Don't worry, I had Lianlian fly up to high altitude and check, there's no anchor point there. So the Cloud Wind Anchor Point shouldn't be the location it's literal in meaning."
Uriel breathed a sigh of relief, but was still a little worried about Rigota and wanted to go find her.
“We also want to find Rigota, but we don’t know which pillar of light corresponds to the Cloud Wind Anchor Point yet… Moreover, it seems that there are no outsiders in the Dream of Dawn besides us.”
"Ligota should be in no danger."
“Let’s go together first, and follow the principle of proximity when looking for a pillar of light… Maybe we’ll run into Rigota at the next pillar of light,” Blanche suggested.
Uriel thought for a moment, then finally nodded: "Okay."
With Uriel joining them, their path became much smoother afterward.
Because Uriel is a local strongman.
Except for the lack of people, everything else in the Dawn of Dreams instance is exactly the same as the real-world Dawn City.
Uriel has lived in Dawn City since childhood. While he may not be familiar with every corner of the city, he is certainly familiar with every main street.
Even with the fog obscuring the view, it had no effect on Uriel. He didn't need to rely on distant scenery to find his way; the map was in his mind.
Soon, with the combined efforts of Uriel and Lianlian, they found a new pillar of light.
However, before they even reached the vicinity of the pillar of light, they encountered the anchor point manager, and two of them at once.
—Mr. Sun and Gulemo.
According to Guleimo, his corresponding "Ancient Tree Anchor Point" is located in the Sacred Courtyard within the Church of Radiance.
After confirming the location, Gulemo immediately realized that the anchor point corresponded to reality.
Guleimo was also a resident of Dawn City. He had his own map in his mind. With a few quick thoughts, he determined his location and the nearest anchor point to him—the Sun and Moon Anchor Point.
As they had previously discussed, the Sun and Moon Stone Pillars originated from the Sun and Moon murals in the City Lord's Mansion.
Therefore, the Sun and Moon Stone Pillars descending upon the Dream of Dawn will most likely also be located in the City Lord's Mansion.
After confirming the news, Gulemo immediately set off and arrived at the city lord's mansion in just a few minutes, where he met Mr. Sun, who was studying the pillar of light.
Then, the two of them went out together to check out other anchor points.
Unexpectedly, they spotted the woodpecker halfway there, so they went to find it and successfully reunited.
After everyone gathered, they exchanged information and began to discuss the upcoming itinerary.
The only other anchor point whose location has been determined is the Lone Peak Anchor Point, located on a mountain peak outside Dawn City, and whose corresponding manager is Camiro.
However, the Lone Peak Anchor Point was too far away, so everyone tacitly placed it last.
However, the remaining three anchor points—Cloud Wind, Twilight Crow, and Fairy—are not easy to find because they had not previously discussed their corresponding locations in reality.
Therefore, in the end, they could only rely on Lianlian's aerial advantage to search for the locations of the three anchor points, and then decide which one to look for first.
Longingly, it took to the sky and began its search.
Meanwhile, the others exchanged information about "Dawn of Dreams," and everyone was enthusiastic about this "new instance."
Especially Mr. Sun.
Mr. Sun usually doesn't pay much attention to others, but this time he took the initiative to chat with Blanche and Uriel, since they were the only two people present with dungeon experience.
Blanche and Uriel were flattered by this and talked in detail about their previous dungeon experiences and their speculations about the Dawn of Dreams dungeon.
About ten minutes later, Lianlian flew back.
"Have you confirmed the location?" Blanche asked quickly.
After receiving a positive reply from Lianlian, Blanche took Lianlian to Gulemo.
While everyone was discussing the dungeon information, Guleimo returned to the city lord's mansion and found the Dawn City street map hanging on the wall.
Now he has returned with a map and spread it on the ground.
After a brief exchange, Blanche and Lianlian successfully marked the locations of the remaining three pillars of light on the map.
It is worth mentioning that these three beams of light are not in the city center, but are distributed in the peripheral areas.
One is in an alley, one is near a suburban mansion, and the other is in the only academy in Dawn City—the Babilon Monastery.
The two local strongmen, Guleimo and Uriel, carefully examined the three locations for a long time but could not discern any features that matched the stone pillar.
So, we'll just have to go there and see for ourselves.
“Then let’s go to… this Ironclad Alley first, it’s relatively close to us,” Uriel suggested.
The others had no objections and nodded in agreement.
But just then, Lianlian suddenly jumped to a certain area on the map and pecked at it with her beak, as if she wanted to say something.
Everyone looked at Blanche with confusion.
Blanche didn't know what had happened either. Just as she was about to ask Lianlian, she heard Uriel make a "Huh" sound.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and found Uriel staring at the spot on the map where the lingering bird's beak was pecking, with a strange expression.
Others also looked over curiously, but didn't notice anything amiss.
Just as Blanche was about to ask about the situation, Gulemo suddenly narrowed his eyes and said, "It's pointing to... Murren Street."
Murren Street?
Blanche murmured, "It sounds familiar."
"Wait, wasn't the apartment we stayed in during the Uriel instance right on Morren Street?"
Uriel nodded: "That's right, not only do you live on Mellen Street, but my home is also on Mellen Street... and, the location of Lianlianzhuo seems to be near my home."
Everyone's expressions simultaneously showed surprise and doubt. Was Lianlian's sudden movement referring to Uriel's house?
How is this going?
Blanche quickly called out to Lianlian and began to ask her questions.
A moment later, Blanche looked dazed and turned to look at everyone: "I just asked Lianlian. She said that when she was confirming the location of the pillar of light, she passed through this area. The fog in the sky above this area was moving very fast, and even formed a vortex of fog."
"Although Lianlian has not yet fully flown through the entire Dawn of Dreams instance, so far, apart from the pillar of light, the only place that has shown any abnormality is here."
That's why Lianlian would specifically remind her.
"There's an unusual flow of fog on Molen Street?" Gulemo asked, puzzled. "Didn't Lianlian go in to check?"
Blanche shook her head: "No, the order I gave Lianlian before was to let it avoid any potentially dangerous or abnormal areas. The situation in that area is abnormal, so naturally it couldn't go in to investigate."
Gulemo: "So what do we do now? Should we go take a look?"
Uriel tentatively raised his hand: "I'd really like to see my home..."
After a moment of silence, Mr. Sun spoke up: "Then let's go take a look. Maybe the dream bubble mentioned in the fairyland's hint has appeared there?"
After a pause, Mr. Sun pointed to one side of the map: "Perfect timing, the location of the Countryside Mansion is also nearby. Let's change our destination from Tiewu Alley to the Countryside Mansion, and we can just stop by Molun Street as a side trip."
