Don’t raise unruly people in extreme cold weather

Chapter 686 Dream Guardian
Is there anyone who is so obsessed with dreams that he doesn’t want to return to reality?
The answer is undoubtedly yes.

In dreams, I can eat whatever I want and buy whatever I want. I don't have to face the extreme cold and hardship in the real world. Who wouldn't want to stay in this "new world" in a dream?

That is to say, Perfect has amazing self-control, and the difficulties she has faced have long made her indifferent to it, because she knows deeply that if she cannot save the reality, then no matter how beautiful the dream is, it is false, and everything will disappear as soon as she wakes up from the dream.

So instead of building a false dream world, it is better to work hard to solve the problems in the real world so that it can one day return to the way it was before the doomsday disaster.

However, when the two were walking on the street, the old butler still noticed that some people did not look muddle-headed. Instead, they maintained their work and life just like in the real world.

Although they cannot perceive that they are dreaming, they appear to be much more awake in their dreams than other people.

When Perfect's dream was invaded, she was in this state at the beginning.

It was just that there were too many things in the dream that made her feel uncomfortable, which made her gradually realize that she was dreaming.

The people in front of them were in the collective dream of all the people of Beloberg. There were very few incongruous things here, and Perfect had no intention of controlling them, so it was almost impossible for these people to wake up completely and realize that they were dreaming.

With Perfect's ability, it is certainly possible to keep everyone conscious, but this is really unnecessary, even more unnecessary than creating a dream world that is no different from the one before the disaster.

The greatest significance of the dream-calling clock and collective dreams is to allow everyone to obtain dream protection and prevent their dreams from being invaded. There is no need to add too many fancy things.

And let the people stay conscious, as they are likely to cause some trouble in their dreams.

So in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, these things should naturally be saved as much as possible.

"Miss, how can this dream world protect everyone's dreams from being invaded? Can the collective dream be less vulnerable to the invasion of dream stealers?" The old butler asked Perfectot curiously.

Although he understood the existence of collective dreams, he still didn't understand how collective dreams worked.

"A dream stealer enters your dream by weaving and modifying the dream to influence your consciousness, so that you can tell your inner secrets, or implant certain thoughts in your heart." Hearing the old butler's question, Perfect explained to him patiently: "Generally speaking, the mental strength of a dream stealer is much stronger than that of an ordinary person. After all, as an extraordinary person, if the body is not strong enough, then the spirit must be stronger.

So they can use their spiritual power to forcibly change other people's dreams.

However, there are some problems with doing so. For example, if the modification is too outrageous or beyond the dreamer's cognition, he will feel uncomfortable, which will prompt him to realize that something is wrong and wake up.

Therefore, an experienced dream stealer usually will not drastically modify other people's dreams, but will weave them according to the other person's dreams.

In a sense, they should be called dream makers, but they use their abilities in the wrong place. The collective dream belongs to everyone, and the whole dream is supported by the spirit of all dreamers. No one can have stronger spirit than all the people in a city combined.

Therefore, they cannot make any effective changes to dreams, which can protect most people."

"I see. But from what you said, young lady, it seems that this collective dream has some flaws?" The old butler heard the unfinished meaning in Perfectcot's words.

"Of course, the main function of collective dreams is to protect the majority of people. Dream stealers cannot make major changes, but if they only want to make minor changes or influences on a certain person, it is not impossible, just like I can change the clothes on you and me." Perfect explained to the old butler, and at the same time emphasized: "Of course, my strong spirit is only an exception. Ordinary dream stealers cannot do this."

"Then how can we protect individuals from such influence and completely eliminate the threat of dream stealers?" The old butler asked Perfectot with concern.

"This requires special protection for individuals, such as wearing items like spiritual amulets to protect one's mind from being invaded, or being able to stay awake in dreams like you, Grandpa Afu." Perfectcot gave a brief explanation.

She and the old butler were able to stay awake and move freely in their dreams. Of course, it was not because they were gifted, but because Perfect had asked Foster to wear a special alchemical item in advance. This item could protect the old butler's mind and also give him continuous hints, allowing him to realize that he was dreaming at the first moment.

This is not Perfect's technology, but the spoils seized from Krillin and the captured dream stealers.

After all, dream stealers also have to guard against being entered into dreams by their peers, and they themselves are able to weave dreams, so it is normal for them to stay awake while dreaming and then weave a dream of extravagance and enjoyment for themselves.

This special alchemical tool is used for this purpose.

Before giving it to the old butler, Perfect also conducted a detailed study on it. The process of making it is not complicated, and it is not a problem to replicate or mass-produce it.

Any alchemy workshop in the North that is above the baseline can produce things of this level, but the principle involves dreams and spirits, which are not the focus of Victoria's alchemists' past research.

Of course, the cost of this alchemical item is a bit expensive, and ordinary people cannot afford it. Even if Perfect cut off its function of awakening consciousness in dreams and only retained its function of enhancing mental protection against dream invasion, it would still be the same.

Therefore, it is naturally impossible for everyone to own one of these alchemical tools. At most, they can be sold to nobles, merchants, and wealthy people who are in need.

Of course, government officials must wear them. After all, they have very important information in their minds. If some confidential information is leaked, it will cause serious consequences.

This is also the main reason why Perfect created the dream-calling clock and built a collective dream.
