Nightmare's Call

Chapter 556 Searching for Hope: Part 2

Lin Sheng had pretty much tossed every single question in his mind over.

Like the use of this communicator, its origins, and the identity of everyone in the chat room.

All of these questions were perfectly answered by Purple Time and Giving Hope.

That allowed Lin Sheng to quickly understand the general functions of the communicator.

This thing was called the Spectral Light by the people in the chatroom.

The Spectral Light only had communicative functions and nothing else. Or rather, the other functions had all been damaged.

As for what had damaged them, no one knew.

As for its origins, no one knew as well.

All everyone knew was that everyone in the chat room had accidentally obtained the ability to activate and connect to the Spectral Light communicator, and entering the platform itself.

As for the rest, everyone knew little too.

As for the others on the platform, while everyone had not indicated their identity, but some of them were surprisingly bellicose.

And there were two others who claimed to be in adjacent worlds and recognized each other’s identity during an accidental opening of a world portal.

Otherwise, they knew each other through comparison and common sense.

Everyone knew pretty much that this platform was a powerful communicator that connects to different worlds.

The backgrounds of the people there were very varied.

While there were only thirteen people in the chatroom, aside from the four big boss-like personalities, the rest was unclear.

“I’m still a total newbie and I don’t know anything at all. I want to know, what’s the purpose of everyone joining this platform?” Lin Sheng asked, trying to pretend to be a naive and ignorant fellow.

“Purpose?” – Giving Hope.

“Probably... chatting just because we are bored? After all this is a chatting platform that crossed worlds.” – Giving Hope.

“So aside from chatting, there are no other functions?” Lin Sheng asked again.

“Yeah, nothing. We have joined the Spectral Light for so long now, and we really haven’t discovered any new features.” – Purple Time.

“Alright... say... were those big bosses talking about destroying worlds, are they for real?” Lin Sheng asked probingly.

“Ugh... Don’t know about that... but they might be for real... I guess? Hahaha, who knows, to be honest. We have yet to meet each other before anyway.” – Giving Hope.

Lin Sheng could feel that Giving Hope was seemingly a very mild-tempered nice guy.

Judging from the previous Qu0026A, her knowledge seemed to be of an average human being, probably an ordinary girl living in a peaceful world.

She did not have much knowledge and understanding about calamities, or common knowledge of supernatural powers. Whatever understanding she had, was probably learned from the others.

After the improvements to Lin Sheng’s intelligence, his analytical and judgment skills were far, far different from before, and he could get a grip of the latter’s background in just a few moments.

But regardless, such people were much more useful in understanding what was going on.

He continued to chat with them while he changed his clothes and stepped into the portal to the Holyspirit Palace.

After some adjustments made by the Fairy Kingdom’s portal warlock, Lin Sheng stepped into the portal.

What he did not expect was that the chat interface was still displayed during the teleportation.

Very clearly, this Spectral Light platform was not affected by the spatial and temporal disruption of teleportation.

“What a powerful technology.” Lin Sheng praised heartily. “Even with such powerful tech, and for someone to be capable of damaging it...” Lin Sheng lamented.

Stepping out of the portal, the people and Holyspirits coming out from the other portals beside him knelt down in salute to him.

Waving his hand to signal everyone to proceed as normal, Lin Sheng strode towards the Holyspirit Palace.

The fusion of the God’s Speed divinity was still within the dream, so if he wants to continue fusing, he needed to enter the dream once again.

Now that the crisis had been lifted, he now had time to explore the Divine Pillar.

Also, he should really wrap things up with Aisha the Torturer.

...

Unknown world.

Night in a bustling city. Over in an ordinary commune at the edge of the city.

The bedroom on the top floor of one of the buildings still had its lights lit.

A beautiful young girl with purple hair was changing into a nightdress as she gently pulled her gloves off her hand as she tied them together and hung them on a purpose-made shelf.

As the vice president of her school’s boxing club, a powerful explosive force beyond her peers was hidden beneath her slender frame.

While she may not be as good as the boys in terms of endurance and the upper limit of her strength, the years of training and her unique set of training techniques handed down by her family allowed her to have faster speed and reactions.

This was the key reason to her ability to become the vice president of the boxing club.

“Interesting, those delusional psychos are at it again.”

She propped her hands outwards as cracking her knuckles as she stretched, revealing her alluring curvatures.

Two years ago, she had picked this high-tech bead from the future by chance, and after the bead fused into her body, a simple chat interface that she could toggle on or off appeared before her eyes.

The name of that chat room was Spectral Light.

Aside from a few psychos that often blather utter nonsense, there was a person that liked role-playing and had simply just played along with them.

The Swordnet person she had just known was one of them. This person often spoke so belligerently it was shocking.

“Destroying worlds? Do you know how vast the world is?” Shaking her head, she smiled as she typed in a line of text, before replying to the newbie that had just joined the chat room.

Giving Hope was her nickname in that chat room.

Originally, due to the high-tech nature of the Spectral Light chat room, she was rather anticipant, but over time, she gradually recognized that everyone here was the same as her, ordinary people hailing fro different worlds.

And a few of them were particularly pugnacious in the way they conducted themselves and sounded like if they had mental problems as their topics were all over the place. They were either lunatics or some late-stage chuunibyous.

After a while though, she had simply thought of this thing as a recreational gadget after her training.

“But it had been a long time since a newcomer joined. This thing sure is slow with the addition of new members. Could it be that everyone here was the same as me, and needed to pick up that small bead?” She suddenly thought of that question.

Amidst her thoughts, she replied to the newbie’s questions again before stretching lazily and decided to lay on her bed to rest.

During the day, she was the resolute, feisty, and tough vice president of the boxing club Her temperament was cold, and her features beautiful. Only when she gets home will she come out from her shell, and allow herself to relax.

As she looked at the chat window, that newbie asked another question.

“Excuse me, how do you fall asleep quickly. What should I do if I’m feeling too energetic and cannot sleep?” – Holy Light Shines Upon You.

“That’s because you’re not tired enough. Sleeping is a resting process and a way for the body to replenish its energy. If you are not tired enough, naturally you won’t feel like sleeping.” – Giving Hope.

“Really? I don’t really understand anything. Thank you for explaining to me. Thank you very much, Giving Hope.” – Holy Light Shines Upon You.

“You’re welcome. I’m a veteran of two years in this place. If you don’t know anything, you can ask me. I won’t be stingy with my answers.” – Giving Hope.

“You are really a good person. Thank you! A peaceful life awaits any good people.”– Holy Light Shines Upon You.

“Hahaha, thank you for your blessing.” – Giving Hope.

“Then, good night.” – Holy Light Shines Upon You.

“Good night.” – Giving Hope.

Lying on the bed, the purple-haired girl gently pulled her blanket over here as she shut her eyes. “Pei Lin, have a good dream,” she told herself.
