Midnight

Lumian had seen in the materials provided by the Major Arcana that the prototype of Police Headquarters No. 1, Yagaitze, should be the Teacher Lady "The Magician," the Grand Duke of the Tudor Empire, the strongest Angel King of the Fourth Epoch, "The Door" Mr. Bethel Abraham.

And within this introduction lies a very important conjecture:

Dream symbolizing the Uniqueness of the "Apprentice" Pathway.

Similarly, the Major Arcana speculate that Amon, active in Dream, is also a symbol of the Uniqueness of the "Thief" Pathway, but often also the essence itself.

This is because Amon was once the True God of the "Thief" Pathway, occupying the Uniqueness of this Pathway for thousands of years, leaving a strong Mental Brand in the corresponding Uniqueness. It can even be said that for a long time before, He was equivalent to the Uniqueness of the "Thief" Pathway.

Therefore, before the Amon's Spiritual Brand within the Uniqueness of the "Thief" Pathway is completely erased, Amon has a very close connection with this Uniqueness, which allows him to freely enter and exit this Dream City. Even if he is discovered by the Celestial Worthy and kicked out, he can re-enter without any limit on the number of times.

The Uniqueness of the "Thief's " Pathway is an integral part of this Real Dream, just as Amon is. The Celestial Worthy want to prevent Amon from entering again, or to completely restrict him, rendering him unable to do anything. According to the Major Arcana interpretations, there are only three ways:

First, we must eliminate the "Thief's " Uniqueness Pathway and separate it from the system. Second, we must quickly erase the Amon's Spiritual Brand within that Uniqueness. Third, we must reach an agreement with Mr. "The Fool" to jointly reject Amon.

Clearly, none of these three methods will work. The second method, which seems the most feasible, has a prerequisite: the Celestial Worthy has a significant advantage in the Dream and is almost half-awake. Otherwise, in Slumber, in the fierce confrontation with Mr. The Fool, even if He is Great Ones, it would be impossible to erase the Amon's Spiritual Brand the Uniqueness the Thief in a short period of time.

Of course, Amon is still subject to restrictions in the Dream City. As for what kind of restrictions, the Major Arcana do not know, and can only conclude from Amon's behavior that He is not without taboos.

Similarly, the Uniqueness of the "Apprentice" Pathway also retains the Mental Brand of Mr. "Men," forming the Dream Image of Yagaitze.

--Although the Uniqueness of the "Apprentice" Pathway was accommodated by Amon, making Him Dual-Pathway True God, Amon stayed at this level for a very short time, and obviously could not completely erase the Mental Brand of Mr. "Door".

As soon as Lumian shrank back, he vanished from his spot and darted toward another Mirror, leaving only a few black Flames that quietly fell and burned away any traces he might have left behind.

That symbolizes the Uniqueness of the "door" Pathway, and it certainly grants a certain degree of control over the Mirror World. Staying behind the current Mirror will inevitably expose us!

A second or two later, Lumian moved to the second target location.

The Uniqueness Dream Image of the "Apprentice" Pathway is Yagaitze, the Uniqueness Dream Image of the "Thief" Pathway is Amon... The Uniqueness Dream Image of the "Seer" Pathway is Zhou Mingrui, who is also the core of the struggle between Mr. The Fool and the Celestial Worthy Venerable? Lumian thought to himself as he concealed his figure and hid in the darkness.

He waited patiently for a while, and only after confirming that no one was following him did he approach the glass mirror and peer out.

There was another office outside, but no one was there at the moment.

This is Officer Dunn's office.

Lumian produced a letter of complaint and made it "float".

The letter then flew off the mirror and landed on Officer Dunn's desk.

The moment it touched the wooden tabletop, a black Flames suddenly extended from the mirror, rapidly Burning towards it and illuminating the Unseen Spider Silk that bound it tightly together.

Black Flame enveloped the letter, burning away the remaining traces and some of Spider Silk Spider Silk, which then retreated behind the Mirror.

Lumian changed positions once again, moving to the third Mirror.

Outside was another office, belonging to another police officer, William Wang.

He is a very assertive police officer, whose real-life counterpart is William Augustus VI, the former king of the Kingdom of Loen, a man who has since passed away.

The Major Arcana are actually a bit puzzled: the Fool's incarnations in the world have no connection with William Augustus VI, so why does this deceased king have a corresponding image in the Dream City?

Similarly, Ancestors of the Augustus Family, such as William Augustus I and Henry Augustus I, were "active" in the Police Headquarters or courts of the Dream City, and their surname was Wang.

The Major Arcana can only conclude that Mr. The Fool has many ancient incarnations.

Perhaps the Police were in a meeting or on a mission, as Wang Weilian's office was also empty. Lumian placed the whistleblower letter, then randomly went to another office through the Mirror World, leaving behind a last letter, without risking going to Yagaitze's place again.

Then, he returned to the Star Dream General Store and emerged from the Mirror-Behind Region corresponding to the Magic Mirror Arrodes.

"Could I borrow some more paper and a pen?" Lumian asked politely as she approached the Checkout Counter.

The Shop Owner placed the paper and pen used to write the letter on the Checkout Counter.

Lumian began writing letters to the Major Arcana, and the letters mainly contained three points:

First, I reminded the Major Arcana to be aware of Rosanne in real life and provide her with necessary protection. Second, I asked them to confirm Anderson Hood's current situation. Third, I informed them of Li Keji's arrest.

After sending the letter and expressing his gratitude, Lumian returned to his Gray Car.

Anthony and Ludwig have returned.

Before Anthony drove off, Lumian gave a brief overview of Stiano's possible identity.

Anthony paused for a moment, then, starting the car, sighed, "Even God has moments of weakness, even God has gone through stages like ours... This truly is the Divine Pathway. It makes me feel that God is no longer so distant, no longer inherently noble, no longer naturally divine..."

"Demystify?" Lumian asked rhetorically, using the newly learned term.

Anthony, gripping the steering wheel, said, "But they are indeed fighting against Evil God and protecting the people..."

"I remember in the industrial cities on the West Coast of the Sea of Mist, those robed Clergy would regularly go to the Factory to hold Ritual. Now it seems more like they're packaging things like factory overhauls, the official use of new Machine, Clergy getting close to the Machine as sacred Ritual..."

Anthony began to recount the religious stories he had heard as a child and the Ritual he had experienced as an adult, while Lumian listened quietly, occasionally offering a word or two in agreement.

Dechuang Garden, Building 5, Room 1502.

Rosanne was overjoyed to find that Franca had returned to normal.

She asked curiously, "How did you feel at that time?"

"I couldn't breathe, it felt like a fish being pulled from the water, like a person being kicked out of this world." Franca described it simply, without mentioning the parts that made Rosanne think of Dream.

Jenna then said, "You need to be careful lately. The henchmen of evil forces are also trying to get close to Zhou Mingrui and deal with those who have directly or indirectly helped Zhou Mingrui. We're worried they'll target you."

"Mmm." Rosanne pointed to the new Oil Painting and sketches hanging on the wall, "I've turned my room into a fortress; they'll Protection me when I sleep."

Franca and Jenna followed Rosanne's finger and saw an Oil Painting of Colorful-Feathered Parrot.

The Parrot was surrounded by abstract, mottled patches of color, and when Franca and the others looked over, its eyes deliberately darted around, as if to say, "Hey, I'm alive!"

After looking at the paintings in the living room and bedroom, Jenna nodded and said, "The Painter's abilities are truly amazing."

"However, if you trust us, we can provide you with a final guarantee of security."

"How will you provide it?" Rosanne asked.

Jenna did not hide anything:

"Give us a small amount of blood and hair, and we'll make you a Mirror Substitute. Well, the straight-line distance between our two rooms is barely within the effective range of this ability, and we can shorten the distance between us in your Shaman space to ensure it works."

"But this also means that we can use that Mirror Substitute easily and accurately Curse you and kill you."

Rosanne fell silent for a moment.

After a long while, she finally smiled.

"You can try. If you really want to kill me, you'll have plenty of opportunities these next few days."

As midnight approached, Rosanne, who had washed up earlier, checked the doors, windows, and paintings, then lay down on the bed and turned off the light.

In the deep darkness, Rosanne quickly fell asleep, continuing to Protection the semi-transparent Barrier.

As time ticked by, the mottled patches of color on the Parrot Oil Painting in the living room suddenly began to move.

The colorful Parrot noticed the Change and was about to shout when the colorful blocks rushed over, blocking its beak and pressing down its wings.

Soon, the Colorful-Feathered Parrot were submerged and dissolved by these patches of color, becoming part of them.

These blocks of color flowed out of the Oil Painting like water, leaving the canvas empty.

They surged into the bedroom in the quiet of the night, slipped through the crack in the door, and came to Rosanne's bedside.

Suddenly, the stream of water, composed of colored blocks, surged upwards and transformed into a human shape.

The colorful humanoid figure stared silently at the sleeping Rosanne for twenty or thirty seconds.

Finally, it transformed back into a stream of colored blocks of water, following its original path, and returned to the Oil Painting in the living room.

The colored blocks began to move, reconstructing the colorful Parrot and the surrounding background.

The Parrot was exactly the same as before, its eyes still bright and lively.

The next morning, Rosanne woke up.

She picked up her phone first, checked the messages, and then slowly got out of bed to check the bedroom and living room.

"No problem." Rosanne breathed a sigh of relief and headed towards the bathroom.

After parting ways with Franca and Rosanne, Jenna went outside to observe the Dream characters who were closer to Zhou Mingrui.

This is her and Anthony's latest mission.

Of course, she had already submitted her resume to Hall Film Company as an acting student.

Today, she and Anthony will be meeting Peng Deng, a very special figure from her Dream.
