Seeing the woman quickly calm down after a brief surprise, Cybertron nodded inwardly and respected her even more.
"First of all, my ability..."
When she said this, she lifted up the corner of her skirt slightly, and a soft, wriggling black tentacle fell out from inside.
No… these are not tentacles.
Xia Yibing quickly denied the first impression.
It becomes thinner and longer towards the end, a single strand with a fin-like black wing at the tip...
Is this a tail?
"Are you a nightmare?" After she realized what was happening, she widened her eyes and stared at the pink-haired nun in surprise.
"Agent Xiasha also knows about the Dream Demon."
"I just saw this word in a senior's collection of books." Xia Yibing shook her head. "The description was very brief... It only said that dream demons are special creatures between extraordinary people and corrupted people. They can live normally like humans, but can also come and go freely in dreams like nightmares..."
"That's true." Saibot tapped his chin, "But it comes at the cost of a greatly reduced lifespan and loss of fertility."
"Nonsense." Torres muttered, "The species and the internal structure of the body have changed, so of course it is impossible for them to reproduce normally."
"Bang!" Cybert punched him directly on the head.
"Ouch—"
"Shut your mouth! It's not time for you to speak yet!"
"Anyway..." After educating his companions, Cybertron faced the woman again, "As a dream demon - of course, it may also be because that accident activated my power as a superhuman - I can sense the nightmares emanating from the surrounding dream world, and can gather those negative emotions and eat them directly."
This is a very good way to show your spirit.
Xia Yibing's eyebrows twitched.
To put it simply, Cybertrooper's ability is to "eat dreams".
Let me give you an example - if someone around you is having a nightmare and can't stand it anymore and wants to hatch a nightmare, Cybertron can eat up the negative emotions in the nightmare.
If the negative emotions are gone, the person will certainly no longer be stimulated, and will not continue to be polluted and corrupted. The nightmare will naturally die in the womb and will not come out.
It is an ability that can prevent nightmares from arising in the surrounding area to a great extent and maintain peace in an area.
Although some parts feel weird, but overall... they are worthy of their identities as priests and nuns.
but.
Xia Yibing looked at Cybertrooper a few more times.
Although the other party did not mention the details of "the accident" and did not reveal more information.
But since she has such ability, there is no doubt that she must have lost something very important in "that accident".
That's why I want to save it.
That's why it becomes like this.
"And Torres' abilities can complement mine to some extent."
Saibot continued.
"He can..."
She glanced at the white-haired priest, who snorted and turned his head away.
This is the default.
"He can inflict his nightmares on others, contaminating them."
"Ok?"
At the first moment, Xia Yibing tightened her grip on the dagger.
It's not that she is neurotic, but such a spirit is too dangerous.
think about it.
It is difficult for ordinary people to just resist their own nightmares.
If Torres used this power without limit, then - especially in those areas where there was a lack of stone suppression, he could destroy a village in just a few days!
"Restricted—"
The white-haired young man had a sour look on his face and spoke in a long tone.
"I can only manifest my spirit on one person at a time, and if the other person resists, I will suffer the backlash of his nightmare. It's not as dangerous as you say..."
Still "a little dangerous".
Xia Yibing looked at the pink-haired nun again.
This combination.
Such a spirit.
Ok.
She understood why the Central Diocese had these two people working together.
"The next step is the key point."
Cybert lowered his voice, and Xia Yibing quickly regained her composure.
"After I came here... I mean, before I was rescued by Agent Xia Sha and before I woke up..."
"This is my personal speculation. I'm not sure if I was still in the storm or had already fallen on the island when I had this feeling. It's always -"
Very rarely, a trace of fear flashed across the face of the pink-haired nun.
"I saw many people in the dim dream world."
"A lot of people?"
Xia Yibing was stunned when she heard this.
This is in the wilderness.
It wouldn't be so strange if she said she saw some horrible nightmare monster.
But people?
Are there still many people?
Doesn't this seem a little wrong?
“It’s just a lot of people.”
Cybot nodded vigorously.
"They...their consciousness is very confused. I...I can't communicate with them. I only know that they are surrounding us. They are everywhere..."
"She told me about it."
Torres added, "She also tried to absorb their fear, but it didn't work. There was no negative emotion in their consciousness."
"Later I tried to disturb them with nightmares, but found they were still unaffected."
"It feels like ... they don't have any negativity and they're not affected by any negativity."
"Why didn't you say so earlier?"
Xia Yibing frowned.
She had a heavy workload these days, and fell asleep as soon as she lay down at night, and could hardly touch the edge of the dream world. She didn't know there was such a thing.
“Not sure what this means~”
Torres raised an eyebrow.
"Anyway, these things haven't shown any harm for now, and we didn't trust you at first, so isn't it normal not to tell you?"
Very deserving of a beating.
But it is true.
They hadn't been together for a long time before, and there was Hitzfeld between them.
This time they were stranded on a deserted island. If I hadn't tried my best to take care of them in the past few days, they would definitely not be willing to reveal their discoveries.
However... Xia Yibing thought about it carefully and felt that she couldn't figure out anything with just this information.
"Describe your feelings again."
She continued to ask the two men.
"Without any negative emotions or being affected... Does this mean that those people don't have any emotions?"
She wondered if there was some indigenous tribe nearby.
"No... that's not the case at all."
Torres shook his head frantically.
Xia Yibing keenly noticed that this fearless guy's hands were shaking when he shook his head.
He is afraid.
“They are very happy.”
"Happy……?"
"Yes, I felt the same as Cybertron felt. They were very happy and seemed to be expecting something and celebrating something."
"If I have to describe it, I feel like they are a bunch of lunatics, just like the people in the Eclipse Church."
"That kind of excitement is like... preparing to offer some unlucky person to the evil god."

Chapter 29 Two Suns
"Heath! Heath!"
Following Ashley's loud shouts, Hitzfeld quickly returned to the other party's stone house located at the bottom of the mountain wall, inside a woodland, and turned around to search the house.
"Heath!" Ashley also ran into the house, and seeing her rummaging around, she grabbed her hand, "What are you doing! This is my home!"
"...Do you still have the concept of home?" Hitzfeld was stunned by her yelling.
"Of course!" Ashley was originally very angry, but when she saw Hitzfeld's surprised expression, she immediately became complacent: "My mother told me that no one else can move in the house... She also praised me for being smart!"
Hitzfeld looked at her and said nothing.
She didn't think Ashley's behavior was funny at all. On the contrary, she just felt pity for her.
Seventeen years ago, Britney Skye was stranded on Brays Island, and it was unknown which native she married and gave birth to Ashley. She did not impose her resentment on the environment on this innocent child, but tried to educate her.
This can be seen from the fact that Ashley knows far more "outside words" than Lindworm, and from the fact that there are novels left specifically for Ashley.
But alas, Britney's heart belongs to civilized society.
Between Ashley and the hope of returning to Sarah, Britney finally chose the latter. At that time - according to Ashley's own memory, she was only 12 years old.
Judging people by appearance, it is of course extremely childish for a mature woman in her twenties to behave like this, and one might even suspect she has intellectual disabilities.
But if you apply it to a 12-year-old girl and look at it again based on this image, everything makes sense.
Ashley might not be stupid, she just never got better.
After Britney left, no one cared about her education anymore. Living in such a closed, backward and primitive society, it was impossible for her to gain any experience.
She was still confused about everything and didn't even understand the most basic things.
Poor and sad.
"Ashley." Hitzfeld looked her over from head to toe and suddenly thought of a question she had been ignoring: "Tell me how old you are this year."
"Ah?" The brown-skinned woman blinked and was actually confused for a moment by her question.
Because she had never thought about this question at all.
