Gongsun Ce closed the book, frowning.

The “Drink Me” bottle and the “Eat Me” dessert corresponded to props in the story that caused Alice to shrink and grow.

He didn’t believe that such things could exist in reality, unless they were products of the Impermanence Skill.

The dreamland and fairy tales were definitely not completely the same, suggesting that this tip was also part of the imagery.

He controlled Shiyu Ling as she walked towards the kitchen, holding the cat all the while, with Diana, the kitten, occasionally meowing.

Reaching the refrigerator, he maneuvered Shiyu Ling to open the bottom door.

A chill rushed at them as the lowest compartment of the fridge revealed two types of food: a row of glass bottles filled with purple liquid, resembling milk bottles but smaller, each labeled with a cute heart-shaped tag saying “Drink Me”; the other was a honey jar with a lid, labeled in a similar style, “Eat Me.”

“Quite fairy-tale-like,” Gongsun Ce commented, “So, do you really want to eat it?”

At that moment, the young man found that he lost control over Shiyu Ling as if the game had entered a cutscene.

Shiyu Ling took out a bottle of “Drink Me” and drank it, and then poured out five or six pieces of cake-shaped hard candy from the “Eat Me” jar, swallowing them quickly with some water.

After doing this, she happily sat back on the sofa, muttering to herself, “I’ve been a good child today too.

Time to go play with everyone!”

Gongsun Ce looked at the clock and found the hands were bending and moving rapidly, now moving forward, now moving backward, making it impossible for him to discern the current time.

The scenery around him began to change again.

The air seemed to shimmer with multicolored lights; gravity had weakened considerably, causing a bouncing step; grass and trees sprouted from the marble floor; little Diana smiled like a person, her mouth widening into the grin of the Cheshire Cat from a fairy tale; the manor’s large door transformed into a deep cave, from which a pure white rabbit, wearing a long robe, hopped out, clutching a basket full of candies, its robe embroidered with a shuriken and fan badge.

“It’s time to set off, Miss Ling.”

Shiyu Ling leapt from the sofa.

In an instant, the familiar dizzy sensation struck, and Gongsun Ce knew the dream was about to change.

He had completed a part of the dream, but the confusion in his mind grew instead of diminishing.

The many inconsistencies in Shiyu Ling’s pleasant life, like cracks on a piece of art, made him uneasy with speculation.

Meanwhile, in Gongsun Ce’s dream.

Shiyu Ling was still in shock.

She had almost been crushed to a pulp by a large chunk of iron shell in mid-air, and even in a dream, this was not something one could easily forget without stress.

“Wow…

you were much more impressive when you were younger…” Shiyu Ling gritted her teeth, “Once we get to Weiyuan City, I’ll blow you up and throw you into the Jiushijiu Tower.”

Saying this, she completely forgot that she would be the first to suffer if she actually did that.

Shiyu Ling took a few deep breaths to calm her nerves and began to piece together the events of the last dream round.

10:04, the dream started; after a minute or so reached the intersection, encountered soldiers; at 10:07, heard talking; about a minute later arrived at the cell with the skeletal remains, encountering Mo Yuankai; after a brief exchange, the containment vessel collapsed, likely due to someone’s superpower going haywire.

If this dream were to end in the same manner as the last, she had less than five minutes left.

Shiyu Ling immediately ran forward, the unnaturally loud statement probably a hint within the dream, and the content of the speech had to be related to the cause of someone’s rampage.

She searched for useful equipment while moving forward.

Four fully armed soldiers would need to be taken out quickly and silently, something she couldn’t do without the Impermanence Skill…

Unless she used some small tools.

“Hope the quality of your support props is as tough as your talk,” Shiyu Ling retrieved four beans.

Yes, four tender green beans.

She quickly rolled the beans in the bagged Biochemical Mud before the soldiers arrived, placing them gently on the left side of the path, then hid in the passage on the right.

As the rhythmic footsteps echoed, the patrolling soldiers stepped into the left side as before.

Due to the black mist filling the pathway, they didn’t notice the beans…

and thus, one unlucky soldier stepped on them.

“Boom!” The beans swelled rapidly, sprouting thick vines and branches in the blink of an eye!

The left side of the road instantly turned into a forest from another realm, the green tendrils constricting the soldiers’ bodies, limbs, and necks like pythons, incapacitating them in seconds, without even a scream escaping their throats.

“…Ugh.”

Shiyu Ling patted her chest, relieved that she had always followed orders and not scattered these beans indiscriminately.

The lab coats said this was “an unintended product of a pea-breeding experiment,” and just the thought of these originally being meant for consumption made her stomach churn.

She bypassed the pitiful soldiers and ran into the middle road.

She didn’t know how long it would be before the ship’s alarm would trigger, nor when the soldiers realizing something was amiss would come to reinforce, so she had to fight quickly and decisively.

With full-speed sprinting, Shiyu Ling took less than half a minute to reach the end of the corridor.

Just as she was about to emerge from the range of the black mist, a crack in the smooth wall right in front of her suddenly appeared.

In less than a second, the crack turned into a sliding door, and four more soldiers walked out!

Seeing this, Shiyu Ling had a hunch.

To prevent the Dragon Species from roaming after leaving the cell, there probably weren’t any passageways connecting the upper and lower floors on this layer; the soldiers used some kind of special secret door for patrolling!

But there was no time for solving this mystery, as the soldiers were already heading towards her.

Shiyu Ling took out beans and arrows, ready to fight for her life—
