Chapter 1159: Chapter 34 CC Verification (Extra for Silver Alliance, Unparalleled Under the Heavens Day 37!)_3

As the story continued.

The little mermaid in his mind turned into Huang Que.

The story went on.

Slower and slower, heavier and heavier.

Finally, he finished.

The little mermaid turned into bubbles, floated up to the sky, spoke to the daughter of the heavens, gained mortal love, embraced an immortal soul, and ascended to a more beautiful, higher paradise.

A long silence followed.

Lin Xian and CC, neither of them said a word.

But Lin Xian knew she wasn’t asleep.

Gradually, CC let out a long sigh, her tone somewhat fatigued:

“The stories of princes and princesses, no matter how many years you tell them, they’re always the same.”

“[It’s either a happily-ever-after wedding, or the regret of life and death separation, as if there’s no such thing as a plain and simple middle ground.]”

Lin Xian raised his head:

“Because they are princes and princesses, they are destined to be special, destined not to be ordinary.”

CC chuckled softly and closed her eyes:

“So… it’s just a fairy tale.”

Her voice was somewhat ethereal.

Lin Xian fell silent.

He looked at CC’s turned-back figure, relaxing, rising and falling gently.

Her breathing was weak but steady.

She actually…

Really fell asleep.

“What a magical bedtime story.”

Lin Xian couldn’t help but marvel at the power of fairy tales.

He quietly stared at CC like that.

According to the techniques in Zhang Yuqian’s videotape, whenever there’s a furrowed brow or rapid breathing, that’s when nightmares begin, and that’s the most effective time to wake someone up.

But.

Lin Xian waited for half an hour, and CC’s breathing remained just as calm, without the slightest irregularity.

That made Lin Xian a bit doubtful.

Could it be…

She really doesn’t have nightmares?

That makes no sense.

Both Millennium Stakes he encountered before had nightmares; it doesn’t make sense for CC not to dream.

“Forget it, I’ll just try directly.”

Lin Xian stood up, turned CC over forcefully, and abruptly woke her.

CC, highly alert, opened her eyes wide and instinctively pushed against Lin Xian, but Lin Xian acted swiftly, pinning her hands down:

“Quick! What did you dream of!”

Lin Xian, knowing time was of the essence, urged her:

“Quickly, tell me what you dreamed of!”

CC lay on the bed, looking up at Lin Xian above her, her gaze filled with disbelief:

“You…”

“Me?”

Lin Xian was confused:

“You saw me?”

CC nodded blankly:

“Blue…”

“[The blue-eyed you.]”

…

Immediately, Lin Xian released CC’s hands.

CC rubbed her wrists, sat up in bed, adjusted her hair, blinked, and looked at Lin Xian:

“What did I just say?”

“You don’t remember?” Lin Xian asked.

CC shook her head:

“I don’t remember. I only recall mumbling to you vaguely, and I don’t remember what I dreamed about… now I even feel like I didn’t dream at all.”

Lin Xian nodded:

“Let’s head out first. Once I’ve figured it out, I’ll tell you everything at once.”

In a few hours, the world would be obliterated by a white light. Telling CC now wouldn’t make much sense, and besides… even Lin Xian himself hadn’t figured this out yet.

A slight analysis.

The content of CC’s dream was completely different from Zhang Yuqian’s.

Zhang Yuqian’s dreams were montage-like and complex, like quickly flashing film storyboards.

CC’s dream was much simpler…

The blue-eyed version of himself.

How should this be understood?

If it were just CC dreaming of him, that would be normal and explainable; after all, her mind was already filled with countless memory fragments about him. Thinking of him during the day and dreaming of him at night wasn’t unusual.

However.

[Blue eyes].

This was the hallmark of a Space-Time Traveler.

It indicated that CC dreamed of herself as a Space-Time Traveler!

Now the problem got a bit bigger.

Lin Xian felt a headache.

He had no idea which way his thoughts should go.

Because it was entirely uncertain if the content of CC’s dream was real or not.

If, as Gao Yang said, the dreams of Millennium Stakes were chaotic, montage-like, and randomly pieced together like a kaleidoscope, then there really wouldn’t be much point in analyzing them.

But if the dreams of Millennium Stakes always reflected real history…

Could it be.

What CC dreamed of was herself as a Space-Time Traveler, going back to the past?

It’s not impossible.

But…

What era, what time period of herself?

“I need more information.”

Lin Xian murmured.

…

For the next three days, every time he entered the dream state, he brought CC to this place to sleep, repeating the wake-up-and-question process.

He thought he could gather a few more keywords.

But things didn’t go as planned.

No matter how he phrased his questions each time, or even if he gave CC answers in advance and told her to pay attention to details in the dream, every time she was awakened, CC’s words were exactly the same…

“It’s you… the blue-eyed you.”

Then, when she sat up, she’d remember nothing.

It was exactly the same as Zhang Yuqian’s situation–waking up and forgetting everything.

“But the content of the dream is somewhat inexplicable.”

Today, it was August 31, 11 PM.

Lin Xian sat in his study, awaiting the Genius Club’s monthly meeting, but he still couldn’t figure out the connection between Zhang Yuqian’s and CC’s dreams.

Zhang Yuqi’s dream: mushroom clouds, explosions, Einstein–utterly baffling.

CC’s dream: the blue-eyed version of herself as a Space-Time Traveler–more baffling.

At first glance.

The two dreams seemed to have no connection.

Upon closer inspection.

There still seemed to be none.

Unless forcing an association, there were no convincing clues to be found.

“There’s one more thing.”

Lin Xian suddenly thought:

“Although Zhang Yuqian forgets the content of her dreams, she still retains that feeling of fear and terror, so even if she forgets the dream within seconds of waking, she’s very clear that she had a ‘nightmare.'”
