"Caw!"
The familiar cry rang out in the Dark Dreamscape. After three nights, Little Dream Dragon, having digested the Ice Soul Bead, appeared as promised once again.
"Ice Cream, my good partner!"
"Caw!"
"Sword Butterfly, Thorn, you two too." Russell happily greeted Little Dream Dragon and the two Amber Bugs.
Then he swung himself onto Little Dream Dragon's back. "Let's go. First, we'll measure the extent of the Dark Dreamscape... You ate an Ice Soul Bead when we visited Grandfather's home, and now you've eaten another one. That makes four Ice Soul Beads in total. Let's see what changed!"
The original Dark Dreamscape had a radius of one hundred meters and covered a little over forty-seven mu.
Later, after it had successively devoured a batch of Hail Beads and then three Ice Soul Beads, Russell found an opportunity to measure it after arriving in the Sancha River Mouth territory.
Its radius had reached two hundred and seven meters, while its area had reached two hundred and two mu.
Now, Russell rode Little Dream Dragon along the "measuring line" until they finally stopped at the distance of two hundred and thirty-one meters—the measuring line was something he had deliberately made with pebbles, stretching in a straight line from the center of the bed, with one pebble placed every meter.
By counting the pebbles outlined on the ground by dark lines, he could determine the Dark Dreamscape's radius in meters.
After doing the calculations.
Russell came to a conclusion. "The Dark Dreamscape now covers two hundred and fifty-two mu, fifty mu more than before! The first time it devoured two Ice Soul Beads, it gained one hundred mu. The second time it devoured one Ice Soul Bead, it gained fifty mu. This time, it gained another fifty mu."
Russell could basically determine
