Chapter 878: Chapter 875 · [Don’t Dreamwalk! Don’t Dreamwalk! Don’t Dreamwalk!]

Noel sat bored in the audience. In reality, he held the position of Minister of Logistics in the Old Government, and had to endure such long and tedious meetings. This particular meeting was being broadcast globally, with many people around the world watching.

He looked up and met the eyes of a young man with short black hair across from him. Both of them shared a helpless smile.

Fortunately, Yamada Machiichi also held an important position within the Union Government. Although the seriousness of his position prevented him from wearing a long dress, at least the two could stay connected.

"Developing nations are urgently demanding more international standing. However, with only 25% of the existing land, it’s impossible to meet all of humanity’s needs," a Union Government official named "Scripps" said from the stage:

"Our initial vision was to establish a peaceful, friendly, and just order in the world. Under the watchful eyes of the deities, we aim to properly arrange internal human order. In times of war, maximizing the use of resources is the primary imperative for human survival. Absolute fairness, on the other hand, is a utopian ideal."

"As the Dream Patrol industry continues to flourish, the world is gradually showing signs of magical resurgence. We have gradually discovered that ordinary people, previously insensitive to talismans, are now able to utilize them to some degree."

"Thus, wondrous signs have begun to appear."

"——The ’human’ species, through the progress of the Dream Patrol game, is becoming increasingly powerful."

"Today, Dr. Xu from the World Society observed that just in this city alone, the concentration of spiritual energy per cubic meter has increased by 0.32%. This is the result brought about by completing Chapter One of ’Louyue Nation’."

"In other words,"

the man on the stage paused, then announced to the dignitaries in the conference room with a more ambitious and solemn tone:

"——We have entered an era of pseudo-magical resurgence!"

"As long as we continue to advance in the Dream Patrol game, humanity will become increasingly attuned to talismans and rich in spiritual energy——the Dream Patrol game has become the only formula for salvation."

"Simultaneously, the deities have decreed that audience attention to Dream Patrol streamers and their comments will also advance the Dream Patrol’s progress."

"In other words——whether it be the Dream Patrol family or the multitude of viewers, participating in the Dream Patrol, even just by watching, will aid us in reclaiming our lost lands!"

Hearing his impassioned words, the people in the conference room sat up slightly, even Noel and Yamada Machiichi listened attentively.

"Everyone!" Scripps declared loudly:

"An hour ago, the Union Government and the Holy Alliance Army signed an alliance contract——the ’First Union Agreement’ has come into effect. With the Union Government at its core, we will establish multiple independent societies and research centers, wholeheartedly dedicating ourselves to advancing the Dream Patrol endeavor."

"We have published the ’Wartime Response Act’, ’Magical Resurgence Supplementary Agreement’, and ’Dream Patrol Family Alliance Agreement’. In this era of great dispute, we will gather all of humanity’s strength and concentrate it on ’Dream Patrol’."

"This agreement highlights the importance of the ’Dream Patrol’ endeavor and further perfects the related laws prohibiting the widespread dissemination of negative emotions. The Ahsente Kingdom, Weina Republic, Grand Duchy of Josse, Nie Democratic League, Vanford United States, Merfet Freedom Federation, Island League, Fugangtu Independent Kingdom, Deteshi Duchy... a total of 17 countries and 13 independent cities have voted in favor of this agreement. It applies to the entire World of Old Days!"

"Now, fellow brethren, I’m honored to announce to you, as well as the entire world——"

The man’s lips curled into a faint smile as he made the solemn announcement to the people.

His arms spread wide, as if embracing the world:

"Welcome to——the era of universal gaming!"

The next moment, applause thundered.

"Clap, clap, clap..."

The conference table was adorned with flowers, and the faces in the audience were filled with joy. This was the pioneering of a new century, as humanity completes a year’s stalled progress——officially stepping into the era of the Dream Patrol.

"The era of universal gaming! A wonderful human age!" people exclaimed.

"A brand-new beginning!"

"Like discovering a new continent, the game overflows with plentiful milk and honey, waiting for us to claim it. Humanity’s spirit of exploration and progress shines brightly!"

From this moment on, the significance of "Dream Patrol" will always be undisputedly front and center on all agendas.

Applause, like a continuous wave of colorless tides, extended from the podium of the conference room to every attendee. Even those watching the broadcast outside the screen felt the excitement. Only a few wore expressions of hidden concern.

"Next, we will broadcast to the world the clearing footage of Chapter One of ’Louyue Nation’ by the anonymous ’first Dream Patrol family’." Scripps said:

"’Louyue Nation’ was a game level that humanity was stalled at for a full year, yet today it has been broken through by an anonymous Dream Patrol player. From his clearance footage, we may learn strategies for success."

Under the watchful eyes of the people, the footage gradually appeared on the large screen...

...

Under the city nightscape, a Ragdoll cat and an orange cat moved through the night, their figures as light and nimble as elves.

They leaped across roads, through the sound of gunfire, their movements unrestrained.

As they stepped onto a piece of brickwork, Su Luoluo suddenly spoke:

"Little Cloud! I saw in the comments that the clearance footage for Chapter One of ’Louyue Nation’ has been released! The Union Government is holding a global broadcast!"

Su Ming’an paused in his steps.

His clearance footage? He hadn’t made it public!

He immediately pulled up the interface and saw the currently hottest live broadcast room [ (Hot) Clearance footage of the first Dream Patrol player of ’Louyue Nation: Chapter One’! Union Government live broadcast!]

A system prompt popped up:

...

[Every game’s clearance footage will be automatically published by the Dream Patrol system.]

[Humanity can only obtain your clearance footage, but cannot pinpoint your real-life identity. The footage will be edited to some degree, and will not include any references, gestures, micro-movements, or anything that could reveal your true identity.]

[Since this is to help humanity’s progress in the Dream Patrol endeavor, you will earn a certain amount of Dream Patrol spirit points based on human benefit and the number of times the footage is watched.]

...

Su Ming’an opened the footage to see that it was from a third-person perspective, only showing the general actions of the Eldest Prince. The footage did not include any scenes involving Noel in women’s clothes, the White Lotus favorability system, or his skill usages.

Additionally, the recording included many perspective shifts, with the camera not always focusing on the Eldest Prince’s actions but interspersed with memories of White Lotus from past lives, like a CG review after clearing a game.

He glanced at his Dream Patrol spirit points, and in just five minutes of footage release, the spirit points had increased by 10. This was far quicker than fighting "abnormalities".

Releasing this footage publicly was no big deal.

"Do you want to watch it together?" Su Luoluo closed her live broadcast.

"Let’s watch it together." Su Ming’an said.

They sat down under the eaves.

In the video, the Eldest Prince woke up from his bed, jumped out the window alone to escape, and went to the Red Mansion where he met the girl Bailian. The recording was edited to not reveal the presence of Shadow, and throughout, it was the Eldest Prince himself communicating with Bailian. In the end, Bailian couldn’t break the shield on the bed and left angrily.

Subsequently, the Eldest Prince escaped into the palace and met the State Preceptor Leming Yue, who, to prevent the Eldest Prince from becoming the Supreme God, stripped his soul and took away his body. Bailian remembered her past life as a palace maid and, enraged by the Royal Family’s persecution of the Eldest Prince, incited a fire to destroy the city.

——[Chapter One - White Lotus Doomsday].

Thick ink left rippling traces on the white screen as the recording ended.

The recording was only fifteen minutes long but captured a complete story. It felt more like watching an ancient-style blockbuster than a game strategy guide.

The dedicated Eldest Prince, the greedy and sinister Royal Family, the charming and smiling Princess Jing He, the resplendent Red Mansion, with the maid Bailian’s three lifetimes as a palace maid, White Fox, and Exotic Species, and the cruel and intricate feudal world.

Penglai Fairy Island and whether there are Immortals, and what the Supreme God is, left people deeply bewildered.

Su Ming’an glanced at the bullet comments, at this time, the live broadcast of the Union Government had already reached hundreds of millions in popularity, almost everyone was discussing this topic.

[What logic did the first Dream Patrol Family use to take these actions? Why is his action path so smooth, and how did he achieve a one-life clearance?]

[The Royal Family is truly despicable, wasting a virtuous lord who could have reformed the world. Clearly, they had thought of a parliamentary system but were crushed by human greed.]

[In this "Louyue Nation" game, can players revive after death?]

[Some characters can, while others cannot. For ordinary roles like guards, eunuchs, and watchmen, players can die and resurrect, as some side plot events will repeatedly trigger. For example, an npc in one place may have a fixed interaction with another npc, which is a side quest. But when this player doesn’t come, these two npcs just repeatedly interact back and forth. No matter how many changes occur, it doesn’t matter to the main storyline.]

[I understand now, I often encounter this situation when playing online games. Npcs always repeat actions, but the overall game time continues as normal.]

[So those ordinary guards and eunuchs can die and revive because they don’t affect the main storyline. Got it, got it.]

[But characters like the Eldest Prince probably cannot die and revive. Because his death would affect the entire main storyline of the game.]

[Hey? Isn’t this Eldest Prince and Xiao Jingsan played by Su Ming’an’s face? Any world game players, you recognized it, right!]

[...]

Bullet comments floated by like snowflakes.

Su Ming’an sharply noticed a bullet comment, "This Eldest Prince is Su Ming’an’s face," apparently posted by a player.

In the live broadcast, the Union Government was analyzing the recording.

They scrutinized the recording frame by frame. Various analysts, psychologists, and criminal profilers took turns attempting to decipher the first Dream Patrol Family’s actions and personal character.

"I believe the first Dream Patrol Family should possess a strong sense of danger acuity and should have studied talismans of the ’attack’ path. Otherwise, from the start, he wouldn’t have recklessly jumped out the window, distancing himself from Xiao Jingsan." A female doctor from the World Association spoke, winning many people’s praise.

Su Ming’an remained silent.

——No. It’s just because Noel in disguise was outside the window, so he went out.

"From this frame, we can see that the first Dream Patrol Family is extremely adept with the barrier talismans of the ’defend’ path. He should be a powerful cultivator specializing in both ’attack’ and ’defend’." Another profiler pointed at the screen, speaking seriously.

Su Ming’an stared at the barrier on screen.

——Not that either. It’s just his Skill, Lamb Barrier, not some defensive talisman.

"Moreover, from the first Dream Patrol Family’s action route, we can see he is a gentleman who respects others, does not fear authority, and is not bewildered by Bailian. Even when sleeping, he sets up a barrier. Clearly, Bailian initially appeared pure and weak, but he did not harm her." A psychological profiler admired.

Su Ming’an’s gaze shifted slightly.

——If you heard Bailian’s desire to eat his heart, perhaps you wouldn’t think so.

Looking at it now, the public release of such recording is harmless, unable to grasp the core points. Plus, watching these people get caught in tangential thinking is quite interesting.

He looked to the side at Su Luoluo. She was still watching the live broadcast.

Her sapphire-like pupils overflowed with longing, even the pupils of a cat, filled with deep desire—her intense yearning for the strongest Dream Patrol Family.

"Little Cloud." Su Luoluo whispered: "So many people, tens of billions, the whole world... all observing the first Dream Patrol Family’s every move. This is truly..."

Her lips pressed together, her eyes filled with longing, quickly settling into gloom.

"Truly... enviable." She bit her lip.

Su Ming’an was silent for a moment.

When he spoke again, his voice was somewhat hoarse:

"This is not an easy thing."

"The internet is a dark place, indulging in ignorant enthusiasm and rebellious nature. No need for extensive speeches and propaganda, mere three-word bullet comments can lead a person, just a few keystrokes can ruin someone. Once becoming ’the first’, the essence of live broadcasting becomes more terrifying—under the lens, magnifying a person infinitely, minimizing a word equally. Anyone’s fingers can alter your original intentions."

"..." Su Luoluo gazed at him blankly.

"Even if something isn’t right, through continuous repetition in small groups like posts, forums, and discussion groups, it gradually becomes self-acknowledged ’fact’, deeply believed. Affirming one’s recognition of everything, establishing erroneous logic as truth, distorting the nature of public figures." Su Ming’an said: "Even so, do you aspire to become the first entertainment Dream Patrol Family?"

Su Luoluo was silent for a long time.

The wind blew obliquely through her soft white fur on the eaves.

"I..." she paused for ten seconds. "Do."

She said: "No matter what, I want to become stronger."

Su Ming’an nodded, glanced at his Main Quest.

He stared into her vivid blue pupils, facing her puzzled expression: "Tonight at midnight, I’ll help you."

He pondered for a moment and said:

"But there will be no way back on this road. Miss Demon King."
