The first time Qingyuan heard that word was in a classroom full of scratches.
Before Meng Ling dissipated, she pointed to the magatama around her neck and said, "Xu."
She didn't know what that meant. She only knows that she is a low-level chain dreamer numbered D-0117 in the Dream Department, and the captain of the seventh team. The daily job is to enter other people's dreams, clear away the resentment of the deceased, and then come out and continue sleeping at the workstation.
She has a secret. Her instincts were never wrong. Her necklace glows on its own. Her weapon—the scepter she usually uses for long-range attacks—can transform into a long sword without warning in extreme circumstances.
She didn't know what any of this meant. She wasn't in a hurry to know. At the moment, she is more worried about the three people under her command: Wen Du, Meng Si in the team, who talks little but is on point in every sentence. Song Ji, a chain dreamer from a wealthy family, desperately wants to prove that he is not a vase. Ji Jianzhun is a technical geek who attacks hard on the Internet but stutters in reality.
Four people, four necklaces, a most ordinary-looking mission team.
But ordinary tasks start to become extraordinary. There were people collecting names in the red-coated senior's classroom, there were people waiting at the end of the corridor in the abandoned hospital, and there were people staring at them in the mirrors in the underground parking lot. Each dream pushes them in the same direction - a wall with the chain dreamer's name written all over it.
Their names are on it too.
Someone is screening. Someone was alarmed. But Qingyuan never knew why the magatama around her neck glowed when there was no link, and why all the dream spirits looked at her and said the same word before they dissipated.
This time, she didn't plan to wait for the answer to come to her door.
Intention: Real strength is not to be strong alone, but to have someone who is willing to stand with you and face the unknown.
