Chapter 50 Number 18 Ore <TOC> Chapter 52 Dreamscape
Translator: SumTLMan
On the hovercraft heading to the Orissa jurisdiction, Fei Lian stood on the side of the ship, squinting his eyes to endure the psychic energy radiation from the bones.
Its physique far surpasses its peers, and even when exposed to psychic energy radiation at close range, it does not show any particular pain, only the feathers quivering slightly.
Li Mu sat beside him, his surface soul essence still not restored, holding Mahadev’s diary and flipping through it.
He had read this diary from beginning to end several times, but still couldn’t figure out what Mahadev hit before he died.

It seems like something is staring at me, this can’t be just my imagination. It appeared when I was asleep, I can feel its gaze.
Human settlements in the wasteland often spread some absurd secret legends, the source of these legends may be some descender or psychic creatures. But the folk legends circulating in the Orissa jurisdiction seem to be true.
There is a mysterious creature at the bottom of the Mohanendi River, the villagers along the river occasionally dream of a huge monster roaming around their dreamscape when they are asleep.
The monster is so huge that the sight cannot contain it, only a vague glimpse of the mottled and pale scales, bright patterns and sticky pus can be seen.
They call this monster the Dream Snake Monster.
But I didn’t dream of that snake monster.
The Orissa jurisdiction had a miracle of the descent of the Holy Son of the Soul Lord hundreds of years ago. As a faithful follower of the Soul Lord, I believe that it must be the will of the Soul Lord that remains watching over me.
I asked Adonis, my subordinate, to monitor everything around me when I was asleep. He is also a staunch believer in the Soul Lord.
-25-
The feeling of being watched appeared again, Adonis said he didn’t see anything. This bastard must have secretly fallen asleep.
I can clearly hear something running under my bed, their light footsteps are almost right in my ear.
I placed some poisoned wheat under the bed, hoping to poison these evil little things.
-26-
Adonis died, his eyes bulged so much they almost popped out of their sockets, his face turned purple, and his body at least doubled in size.
His subordinates whispered amongst themselves, thinking that I poisoned him.
This is impossible, I just put the poisonous wheat under the bed, why would Adonis be poisoned by it. Unless he crawled under my bed in the middle of the night to look for food.
But I can no longer remember where the poison came from.
-31-
The priest said that there was a problem with my mental state, his gaze towards me was very strange, making me want to gouge out his eyes.
I suppressed this impulse, the Lord of Souls is watching me, they are just envious of me for receiving the Lord of Souls’ favor.
-36-
I was fooled! Those damn miscellaneous breeds, they locked me up! They are envious of me! I will kill them all! Not a single one left!
-39-
Adonis came to save me, he released me from that narrow room, it must be the Lord of Souls watching over me.
Adonis! Adonis! He truly deserves to be my most trusted subordinate!
Now is the time for me, Mahadev, to seek revenge, I will completely kill those false followers and heretics, offering their flesh and blood to the Lord in sacrifice!
Li Mu closed the diary, as Mahadev gradually went mad, his writing became more and more slurred, making it difficult to decipher. But one can still deduce from the diary that his spirit is gradually being controlled by an unknown entity.
Kurana did not speak the truth to him in the first place.
Mahadev was not locked in the room voluntarily, but was controlled by the Soul Sect. It seems that when an unknown entity was stealthily controlling him, the Soul Sect detected the anomaly. The Pancaya Council in the Orissa jurisdiction has been completely controlled by the Soul Sect, they want to abandon the out-of-control Mahadev and replace him with one of their own.
But the Soul Sect did not expect that the security officers under Mahadev were also under control and released him from captivity.
What happened afterwards is clear, the Pancaya Council that initiated the proposal to replace the security officers was killed to the last man. After laughing and killing all of his security officers, Mahadev chose to commit suicide.
Speculating about the strange events that took place in the Orissa jurisdiction, Li Mu was somewhat amazed by the conspirator who had been lurking behind the scenes, manipulating a powerful security officer and the entire Soul Sect.
Seeing Fei Lian showing obvious signs of weakness, Li Mu immediately retrieved the descender bones, its surface psychic source essence has been completely transformed into psychic energy.
Shen Luoyan looked at Fei Lian with some envy, as a control system awakener, her talent was more suited to the mechanical field. But who among the control system awakeners wouldn’t want to have a powerful mutated creature.
“What exactly controlled Mahadev?”
Li Mu took out a pen and compared the records in Mahadev’s diary on the same day with his behavior, and found that he had serious symptoms of delusions and serious problems with his memory.
“A psychic system at least of the fourth level, descender, awakeners, and psychic creatures are all possible, and even an upper diver.”
Shen Luoyan tentatively tried to touch Fei Lian’s head, almost pecking her fingers.
“Awakeners who major in the psychic system are already rare, to my knowledge, the recorded psychic system awakeners don’t have this ability.”
The psychic system has extremely high requirements for talent, and if one doesn’t have talent, no matter how much effort one puts in, they can only create a little illusion for ordinary people, only being able to crudely read some surface memories can be considered as entry-level. The vast majority of awakeners minor in the psychic system, just for the convenience of psychic energy beam detection capabilities and to be able to self-protect when facing psychic system awakeners.
“So, his next target should be me?”
His gaze was somewhat serious. Mahadev is one of the few fourth-level awakeners, proficient in the psychic energy of the shaping system, and even in Avonigarda City, he is considered a cornerstone.
But after being controlled, even the long-established Soul Sect had no way to help him.
“Let’s have dinner first.”
The sky darkened, Li Mu stopped the hovercraft, the noise of the hovercraft was too loud, traveling at night was not a good choice, and it may attract something strange.
He spread the tablecloth inside the hovercraft, clapped his hands, and various foods appeared on top. A golden roasted suckling pig, a pot of chicken soup, various stir-fried dishes, and a large pot of rice.
“It seems that your imaginary space area is very large.”
Even Shen Luoyan was amazed, imaginary space is expandable, but very dangerous, because if you are not careful, the anchored coordinates will crash.
“As expected, our abilities match perfectly.”
