Chapter 179 Chapter 179: Entering the Dream

I started rewriting (New name: The Fallen Wizard (Old name: Mystic Journey)) again, even though it is fast-paced at the start, I will make it slower when he gets into the academy.

Dream, as Renji briefly understood from the description, is akin to virtual reality, capable of digitizing one's consciousness and uploading it to the network.

However, such a description sounds too cold and mechanical. Thus, a more artistically appealing and relatable term, " Dream" is used.

Everyone dreams, but few can control their dreams and experience the dreams they desire. The Dream Terminal was created to assist people in achieving this level of control over their dreams.

The higher the "model" of the Dream Terminal, the stronger the control over the "dream" and the higher the realism in constructing the dream.

It seems the first two models of Dream Terminals only allow users to experience dreams edited by others. With the third model, one can truly daydream and construct a personal dream.

The highest model currently known, the fourth model of Dream Terminal, clearly transcends the realm of "entertainment." The source of this content can be connected to n0v3lb!n★

As Renji was getting familiar with it, a surprised exclamation quickly came from nearby.

"Is that a Dream Terminal?!"

The voice belonged to Eileen, who among everyone, reacted the most. She looked at the silver-grey semicircular device in Renji's hand with eyes filled with excitement, almost like she was on a pilgrimage.

Seeing Eileen's reaction, Renji was a bit surprised, "You know about this?"

Realizing she had gone off-topic in her excitement, Eileen quickly coughed to regain composure and continued, "What I mean is, 'Dream' has many other capabilities. For example, there's a famous story from the Mechanical Alliance about a scientist studying something complex like the periodic table. He couldn't figure it out, so he used 'Dream' to relax, and incredibly, he deduced the periodic table in his Dream that he couldn't solve in reality!"

Hearing Eileen's introduction to 'Dream' and this story, which aligns with the capabilities of the Model IV terminal, Renji now planned to use the Dream Terminal for similar purposes.

Seeing Eileen's enthusiasm and the useful information she provided, Renji promised to let her experience 'Dream' after he finished, if 86 allowed it. Eileen was overjoyed and even offered to let Renji use the 'Miasma Touch' on her, saying 86 could use whatever item she materialized into.

Renji was curious about what form Eileen would take after the 'Miasma Touch,' but that was a matter for later. For now, he found a comfortable spot to sit. After putting on the terminal, Renji felt connected to it, able to enter 'Dream' with just a thought.

Without much hesitation, Renji activated the terminal. The next moment, he felt enveloped in darkness, similar to his experience in the altar pool. His consciousness began to sink and dive deeper.

This time, the experience was much more comfortable for Renji compared to his previous experience. After a brief sensation of weightlessness, he regained his vision.

He found himself in a space of ethereal lights and shadows, presumably the 'Dream' world. With a thought, the blurry world of light and shadow began to clarify, revealing a landscape identical to the Dragon Nation in reality.

In 'Dream,' Renji felt like the master of this world. He could switch between a first-person and a god-like perspective at will, changing anything as he desired — after all, this was his dream.

Remarkably, if he chose not to intervene, the dream world would operate on its own. This must be the so-called "simulation" effect. As a Model V terminal user, simulating the Dragon Nation seemed effortless.

After getting used to the controls, Renji got down to business. He started testing various policies in the 'Dream' Dragon Nation, some suggested by Lena and others he had thought of.

By accelerating time in the dream, he could see the outcomes of these policies, effectively predicting the future.

For instance, Renji first tried a policy strongly supporting the demi humans. Initially, it seemed effective as the demi humans' influence in the Dragon Nation rapidly increased. However, the overall power of the kingdom couldn't sustain its growth for long. In less than a century, it began to decline.

The reality was that humans were generally more advanced in development than demi humans. But the history of enslaving demi humans, combined with his supportive policies, led to a strange culture of demi human supremacy. Many demi humans rose to power based on political correctness, lacking the ability to contribute to the nation's development and governance.

While humans outwardly respected demi humans, underlying conflicts remained unresolved and even grew. Almost every dispute involving demi humans was biased in their favor, even when they were in the wrong. This led to the emergence of twisted concepts like "demi human lives matter more."

The 'Dream' world's simulations had their limits, and Renji could only forecast up to two hundred years. Beyond that was beyond his reach.
