Chapter 813: Chapter 375: At the Bedroom Door

He cast aside his distracting thoughts, trying not to ponder too much, and focused intently on listening to the Night Watchman’s voice...

The Night Watchman had not noticed anything unusual, and continued, "We cannot trace back to who was the first person in history to absorb Supernatural Power, but the first person who actively used the absorbed Supernatural Power and gradually explored the methods of utilizing various auras... was undoubtedly her."

"The ’Black Moon Envoy’s’ green aura faction..."

"The ’Dawn Walker’s’ blue aura faction..."

"The ’Supreme Judgment’s’ golden aura faction..."

"And so on and so forth..."

"The foundational knowledge of each aura faction was laid down by her, she pretty much found all the methods, cultivating every path..."

"’Contractor’, ’Road Builder’, ’Extraordinary Person’... She had many titles, but ultimately chose ’Contractor’."

Lin Yi thought to himself that he could understand this very well, although the title ’Contractor’ sounded weird, it was still much better than ’Road Builder’.

Normal people, who would call themselves ’Road Builder’? Crap!

"How did she become a... ’criminal’, imprisoned in that bedroom?"

The Night Watchman said, "Originally, the ’Original Apostles’ launched voyage after voyage in search of the ’Root’s’ mysteries, but few apostles participated in each voyage... except for the Contractor."

"Continuous voyages, coupled with her innate talent, made her understand the ’Root’ far more than other apostles, and she became more obsessed with pursuing the mysteries of the Root."

"Eventually, issues that had been building up for a long time erupted, and she started developing some mental issues. For her safety, the apostles decided to temporarily have her cease her voyaging plans... which caused substantial disagreements and arguments among them."

"The final outcome was the Contractor failing in the final vote, being left behind at the Outpost."

"It wasn’t much of a problem initially... but that particular voyage took a lot of Time, and it was okay at the beginning, but as time increased, the Contractor gradually became abnormal..."

"By the time the apostles returned from the voyage, they found severe signs of battle within the Outpost... Indeed, the Contractor had been subdued and imprisoned, but before that, she had killed the companions who were guarding her, and buried their dismembered pieces all around the Outpost..."

"The nursery rhyme sings about this..."

"Later, the remaining ’Apostles’ crafted a prison for her, confining her there, and that prison is located somewhere in that bedroom."

"Regrettably, up to this moment, I still haven’t found the location of that bedroom."

Lin Yi thought deeply, "’02’, so the item you are looking for, is that ’prison’?"

The Night Watchman denied, "What do I need the prison for? I’m not looking for the prison, but the item I’m looking for is theoretically in that bedroom."

"’Theoretically’?"

"Over the years, I’ve searched almost the entire Art Building, and now, it seems only that bedroom remains."

"But ’02’, the little girl, no, the Contractor is locked up there... If we search there, aren’t we walking into a trap?"

The Night Watchman assured, "Don’t worry, just the ’prison’ isn’t enough to keep her confined, the real safeguard is the ’Dream Builder’s’ ’Time Exile’..."

"The Contractor is now caught in an endless Dream, her consciousness has long sunk into the depths of unknown Layers; the Phantom Vision you experienced is largely due to some kind of resonance with the aura she left behind during ’Dream Building’, reading something in a special way, don’t be afraid."

Lin Yi pursed his lips, he trusted the Night Watchman greatly, but he somewhat disagreed here:

"Just ’reading’? But I feel like she is right beside me, talking to me..."

"Could it be a penetration from a Layer level?"

"The ’Dream Builder’ mentioned by ’02’ must be the progenitor of the ’Dream Building Avenue’, one of the original apostles..."

Lin Yi had a strange speculation: "’02’, you say... could it be because the ’Dream Builder’ exiled the Contractor, so despite the Contractor being in Time Exile for countless years, her consciousness has been continuously leaking through the Layers, like a gas canister thrown into the sea, although it sinks, it keeps leaking gas, these gases keep rising upwards, shattering countless tiny bubbles, but then absorbed by the upper Layer Dream Builders?"

"So... the Dream Builders who were inadvertently penetrated by the Contractor’s aura, lost their Time Anchor while Dream Building, and were pulled into the Time Exile to some extent...?"

"Hiss..." The sound of a sharp intake of breath came from the Night Watchman.

"Repeater kid, you’re not suggesting... the culprit leading the Dream Makers astray in their dreams is the very founder of the Dream Building system... the ’Dream Builder’ herself?"

"I didn’t say that, don’t slander me!" Lin Yi quickly denied, what an accusation, he hadn’t said anything, he just had a sudden speculative idea.

Yet the Night Watchman fell silent in a faint way.

And the silence of the Night Watchman made Lin Yi’s heart thump even more.

Could it be...?

No, it’s not...

It can’t be...

Oh no...

"Cough cough!!" In desperation, Lin Yi thought of something regarding layer penetration, quickly fetching it to shift the conversation, "That, ’02’..."
