Superhumans of the Dome City
Chapter 273 - 273 34 Intertwined Dreams 5

273: Chapter 34: Intertwined Dreams (5) 273: Chapter 34: Intertwined Dreams (5) Aorus Otimis, another newcomer.

Shiyu Ling didn’t bother to remember the name—it wouldn’t be useful in the Zero Island mission.

She stood by the door, eagerly eavesdropping on the young Dragon Species’ argument.

This time, she wasn’t in a hurry because she realized when she discovered the truth about the shadow that she had missed the chance to solve the dream.

This round of dreaming was bound to end in failure.

During this period, Gongsun Ce’s heart was filled with unease; to him, light signified surveillance and control, while the shadow of darkness became a symbol of stability.

He believed that outside the corridor was safer than inside the cell, a clear demonstration of his aversion to his “own kind.”

What, then, was the key to ensuring stability for Gongsun Ce in the dream, for this soon-to-collapse shelter?

—Of course, it was the fat boy who had suddenly turned into a shadow man!

He was all safety, shrouded in shadows, his face not even visible!

She understood why now.

Gongsun Ce’s superpower had surely gone out of control in reality, leading to the steel giant ship’s disintegration.

However, his telekinetic outburst hadn’t caused significant damage.

She knew the character of that self-destructive pessimist too well.

If he had hurt innocent people by his own fault, Gongsun Ce would likely have already killed himself.

Consider Mo Yuankai’s role in this dream, and what happened in reality becomes completely clear.

“That guy had a meltdown because of what happened in those few minutes, smashed the ship, and then the fat boy saved everyone with his superpower…” Shiyu Ling sighed, “What kind of superhero movie is this…”

Thus the solution to this dream was self-evident—just trace the shadowy fat boy’s movements and lure him to Gongsun Ce’s cell before the deadline to prevent the outburst.

The problem was, by the time she realized this, it was already too late.

Heading back to find someone, shaking off military pursuit, explaining the situation, rushing over…the meltdown timeline had long passed.

Just wait to solve it easily in the next round.

She leaned against the door as if watching a soap opera, thinking that it would be great to have chips at this moment, or even watermelon.

“Aorus Otimis only wants to express one thing—that he really, really loves his superpower.”

“I, of course, love my power, because it’s my talent, my treasure,” brown-haired Aorus replied with a smile.

“But, my friend, what I truly want to say isn’t limited to this.

We should overcome this trial with wisdom and courage, rather than squandering our talents on meaningless trivialities.”

“Ah, I just…I mean, I want to escape.” Kardesia seemed to give up trying to understand the long speech across from her, pulling the topic back.

Dear little Kitty, I’m amazed to find that your intelligence hasn’t noticeably changed over these ten years.

“That is exactly, if I may be blunt, a pointless action.” Aorus was piercing.

“Right now, we are powerless to resist the state’s might.

You might escape this cell, this containment ship, but not the pursuit of the state machinery.

You’ll be captured again—and then, what you will face will be a much harder trial than now.”

The blonde girl’s restlessness became more apparent.

“Oh my God, what do we do then!”

Aorus, however, remained calm.

“This is a test, and it will end one day.

They will not bind us on this ship forever; we will inevitably journey to new realms, stages suitable for us to showcase our talents.

We are Transcendents, beings unlike any other!

Have you ever heard the legend of Emperor Yong Guang?

Ling Yang slays the dragon in the wilderness—”

“That’s false,” Gongsun Ce interrupted coldly, “a fairy tale to fool children.”

You saying that as a child is quite persuasive.

Shiyu Ling sat down against the wall, lamenting that these Dragon Species were all too precocious.

Is this something a child should say?

Aorus smiled mysterically: “That is true, my friend.

You just don’t know enough, mistaking the miracle for a fairy tale.

Have you considered how humanity has confronted the Dragon Disaster over these two thousand years?

I think not, because the place you stand isn’t high enough; you cannot see the truth, only the shadows cast from above.”

Without waiting for Gongsun Ce to respond, he turned to the blonde girl.

“Ling Yang slays the dragon in the wilderness, founding a thousand-year Empire.

Countless common folk struggled to survive the Dragon Disaster, could only lament, while Ling Yang alone carved out a whole new world.

This is a feat, unattainable by mere mortals, belonging only to geniuses.”

“Two thousand years have swiftly passed, a new era has come upon us.

The world is always decided by the few; we possess the supreme talents!

You, I, all of us, are the Ling Yangs of the second millennium, the geniuses who will guide the age forward!”

His demeanor grew more fervent, like an orator declaring his views from a high platform, yet his audience was merely two children, though he appeared as if addressing thousands of zealots.

“Only Transcendents can understand Transcendents.

You are confused now, Kardesia Spencer, but I can tell you the solution, very simple—help each other, support each other.”

“Help each other…” Little Kardesia repeated.

“We come from around the world, without kinship ties, yet we are essentially the same kind.

I care for you as I would care for siblings, beloved lovers.

I promise I will help you, regardless of the cost, simply because it is my innate duty.”
