"Newcomer? What does this mean?"

Xia Ran keenly captured the key words.

"It means that we are actually the same unlucky ghosts. The soul wavelength is easily close to the frequency of other dimensions, and the overlap with our own world is very unstable. It may transcend the barrier between worlds at any time..."

The vague human figure said this with some emotion, and his tone had an inexplicable feeling of sympathy.

"Although I can't guarantee other things, you are definitely not alone in this matter."

Xia Ran was silent for a moment. Although these words sounded very baffling, he felt that he seemed to be... somewhat able to understand?

After all, he is not really innocent, and he is still the age group who believes that Santa Claus will ride on a moose to deliver gifts every year. Naturally, he is very aware of how evil what happened to him is.

——Which normal person would have such a terrifyingly realistic dream? Is there any so-called lucid dream that can achieve that terrifying level of reality? It’s like the spiritual consciousness is lost in the endless river of time.

However, he was too lacking in relevant intelligence and information before to make an accurate judgment. The only thing he could roughly grasp was the nature and characteristics of "dreams".

In addition, no one can explain it to him, so he can only think about it on his own, and then forcefully explain it to himself, so that he can at least have an acceptable explanation... although this explanation is often just for self-comfort.

"Are we... all the same?" he asked tentatively.

"Yes, we are all the same. Although this situation is actually very, very rare, the probability is not completely zero, and this infinite world is too broad..."

The blurred human figure seemed to be nodding, but because the light and shadow effects were too rich, Xia Ran, who could only barely make out the outline, was unable to distinguish the small movements in its details.

"It's just that it's too broad, so it's impossible for us to observe every area. Only when newcomers show enough potential and possibility can they be observed and locked, and then pulled into the white space."

"..."

"..."

"So... what exactly is this mechanism?" Xia Ran felt a little confused. Could it be that the other party was organized and disciplined?

"What mechanism? This question is a bit difficult to explain. Let's put it this way, I was not completely joking before. You can just understand it according to that statement. Although it is not a reincarnation space, there is no big light ball."

The vague humanoid figure who calls himself the guide seems to be very happy and says this——

"Although we are not reincarnations in the strict sense as you imagine, our nature is actually very close. It is said that in some worlds we are called time and space travelers, apostles, lost people, etc. Of course, some say that we are extraterrestrial demons.

of……"

Xia Ran fell silent again, pushed up his glasses and said nothing. Although he always felt that something was wrong and there must be something wrong, he really never considered the possibility of this kind of divine unfolding!

——Maybe this is still my dream? By the way, it must be like this. Maybe this time it is actually a simple dream and does not involve anything else, so this situation occurs.

"I understand your doubts. It's normal for you not to believe such things. After all, I was just like you when I first started. Which normal person would accept this statement so easily?"

Regarding Xia Ran's silence, the leader didn't seem to care at all.

"It's just that facts always speak louder than words. You will know it when you see the facts with your own eyes. By the way, the first thing to do is to establish your personal area..."

"Create a personal area?"

"Yes, just think of it as the setting of reincarnation space... It is an area specially divided for you by this great white space. This area of ​​space actually belongs to you."

The vague humanoid figure looked around and stretched out his hand as if gesticulating something.

"So except for me who can temporarily project in due to my duties, no one else can interfere, and you can't see them. But it still needs to be adjusted. Of course, by this time, it is estimated that the time is almost up."

"ha?"

Xia Ran couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, but at the next moment, he felt that there seemed to be some information flowing into his consciousness.

It was as if he heard an extremely loud, but genderless voice. The reason why he said it was as if, was because even he couldn't decide whether it was his hallucination or whether his eardrum really received some vibration——

"...Retrieval completed..."

"...The conditions match..."

"...Start the appropriate work of rule assimilation..."

"...Inserting intelligence and reconstruction framework..."

"...Scanning target object data and generating corresponding files..."

"...low-level permissions are being granted and basic related module function services are being activated..."

"...Information insertion completed..."

"...Suitable for finishing homework..."

"...The entire project is completed..."

And almost at the same time, the surrounding pure white space was also undergoing earth-shaking changes extremely quickly.

It is as if time and space have become distorted, and curves visible to the naked eye appear out of thin air, outlining the outlines of various scenery almost instantly, and making them quickly become clear.

Not long after, the white part quickly shrank into one, and finally turned into a sphere suspended in mid-air, emitting a soft light, and there seemed to be a vague array of information flow moving on the surface.

As the light shone, a huge platform appeared below. I don't know what kind of super alloy was used to cast it. It looked extremely flat, with no fluctuations in micrometers. There was only a solitary wooden door standing on it.

.

As for the surroundings of the platform, there was a void, like the dark and cold void of the universe.

The two people who had been sitting opposite each other in the pure white space appeared directly on the huge platform, under the light of the soft light ball.

"It seems that my guess is correct, but maybe the psychological implication left by the previous joke was too strong. As a result, your personal area has become like this now. I'm sorry for this -

—”

Seeing Xia Ran stunned there, the leader laughed and apologized insincerely.

"Also, I will tell you some important precautions. Whether you believe it or not, it is best to remember them first... After all, this does not mean that everything will naturally get better, and it may get worse.

maybe."

…

…

I don’t know how long time passed, but it was around midnight.

In the real world, Xia Ran slowly opened her eyes and woke up from her bedroom. Her eyes were filled with confusion, and she just stared at the ceiling in the darkness in a daze.

It seems that for a moment I can't tell what the situation is now and what it was like at that time.

"Well..."

After a long while, he groaned lowly and slowly sat up from the bed. He stretched out a finger in confusion and rubbed his temples to relieve the pressure in his brain.

The feeling that his brain was swollen due to receiving too much information made him very uncomfortable...

After trying hard to think back, he realized that he had just had a strange dream that was not dangerous, but seemed very strange and absurd, almost like a fantasy?

The swelling in his head became more and more serious, as if the CPU was overloaded. He rubbed his temples while trying to recall the dream just now... and then he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

In the dream, I seemed to be drifting into a pure white world, and then I met a person whose gender was unclear, and then the other person didn't care whether I accepted it or not, and said a lot of things.

A lot of unintelligible words.

How should I put it? Before, he just felt that something was wrong - just "somewhat".

But the style of painting after that suddenly became "completely" wrong.

It's like a high school student who originally thought that reality is just that, and that the repetitive daily life is all life. Even if he is forcefully dragged into some inexplicable club by a woman, it will not change the basic situation of this reality.

.

But only a few days after school started, people from the same club were pulled out one after another, and they said a lot of words that normal people could not understand, trying to make the high school students believe that they were aliens, people from the future, and people from another world.

And people with super powers...

——No, this is impossible.

Although there are indeed some subtle similarities between what happened, Xia Ran can still clearly distinguish the difference between dreams and reality, and he will not think that Yukinoshita's classmate is actually Suzumiya.

I don’t even believe that Mr. Hiratsuka is a person with super powers... Huh? Wait, this is actually possible, otherwise why would she, a weak female, have such unscientific strange powers?

Xia Ran shook her head vigorously, trying to restrain her violent thoughts.

Although the memory impressions in the dream are as clear and profound as ever, for him who has woken up now and is in the dimension called "reality", it is natural that he will look at the problem from a more realistic perspective.

.

So of course he would not believe such absurd things, so he assumed that he had had a strange dream... Although he had always wondered whether he had seen other dimensions in his dreams, just like the number of sands in the Ganges River.

infinite world.

But...instead of believing in such an unfolding, it would be more reliable to think carefully about whether it was because he signed a contract with some strange creature and became a promising magical boy.

"well……"

Xia Ran sighed and covered her forehead.

Now that he has woken up and is in reality, he feels that maybe he is under too much psychological pressure on dreaming, which is why he has such absurd delusions... After all, it is impossible to say that he can directly exhale a system now, right?

It is said that what white space and what data terminal has been implanted into the level of one's soul?

He thought so, and with the emergence of such a thought, the next moment, he didn't know what happened, his pupils shrank slightly, and his expression suddenly froze.

——He did not fall asleep again for the rest of the night.

(ps: I changed it at least five or six times, but still wasn’t satisfied. In the end, I deleted the few thousand words of simple dialogue explanations in the middle... I plan to break up these settings and put them later, and add explanations when the time is right.
