Chapter 1274: Out-of-control Dream

Kuna Yu opened her eyes, but there was still a trace of fear in them. When she saw Zhang Heng, her body shook.

However, she controlled herself very well. Other than Zhang Heng, no one else saw the slight change in her expression.

“Teacher,”Alicia called out in a trembling voice. When Kuna Yu heard this, she reached out a hand and gently stroked her hair.

Looking at Kuna’s haggard appearance, Alicia’s nose twitched. “Your leg, it’s all because of me…”

“No, it’s not your fault. I lost control.”She then turned to Zhang Heng. “I have to thank you, young man. You saved my student and saved me. I’m ashamed to say this, but you warned me before.”

“You’re welcome. I only did what I had to do,”Zhang Heng said calmly.

Alicia turned to thank him again and said, “You said you would only lend him to us for three days, and you wanted him to take you to the city under the ice…”

“It’s okay. Something happened in the middle, and I’m considering whether or not I should leave immediately to find the city under the ice,”Zhang Heng said, “Besides, saving people is more important. He’s not the only way I can find the city under the ice.”

There were many people who participated in the expedition that year. Even though some of them died on the way, other than Dr. Baker and the guide, Sanchez, there were still many who survived. Even without considering Kronos himself.., there were also the retired soldiers who listened to him. Of course, Zhang Heng actually had the easiest way to find his adoptive parents.

The two of them were part of the expedition team that year, and they had personally entered the city under the ice. However, Zhang Heng did not want to involve the two of them unless it was absolutely necessary, in fact, after knowing the general direction of the expedition team that year, he could also search in that direction. Based on the connection between him and the owner of the city under the ice, it should not be difficult to find the destination.

“Can you tell me what you saw in his dream?”Zhang Heng asked as he pointed at Sachus’corpse.

“Of course, with the help of my little elf, Gu Moke, I entered his dream. Before that, I hadn’t seen anything like it… Such a scene was filled with madness and killing. I could see that his mind had been completely twisted, but I still managed to get a glimpse of something from those fragmented fragments.

“I saw the fight in the art museum. I saw Ali standing with him. They were talking about something, and then Zhang Heng appeared. Ali said he was going down to help, but I didn’t see him again. Other than that, I saw the secret ceremony of the fanatics. They placed the kidnapped victims on the ground and surrounded a black well.

“And then cut open their chests, and let their blood flow to the well, but not let them die at once, and let them scream and watch themselves die, because of a nervous breakdown, while the fanatics gathered round the victims and the well, and took off all their clothes, and writhed and danced.

“With all due respect, it wasn’t really a dance at all. It was just a group of people randomly dancing in their own interest. They looked extremely ugly, and from time to time, they would let out beast-like roars from their throats. However, I noticed that there seemed to be something in the black well. I wanted to take a closer look, but at that moment, those fanatics suddenly stopped their movements and looked towards the place where I was hiding.

“After that, they seemed to have received some kind of order and rushed towards me together. I wasn’t too afraid at that time, because I knew that this was only a dream. They actually couldn’t hurt me, especially with my usual dream experience. As long as my emotions fluctuated violently, I would leave the target’s dream. But this time, the situation was completely different from before. They caught me, and I couldn’t break free. Then, they dragged me to the well.

“A leader-like man walked toward me and cut open my chest with a knife. He placed me next to the offerings. I felt… pain, and my ears were filled with wails. However, I didn’t wake up. It was then that I realized something was wrong. Then, as the ritual continued, I finally saw what was inside the well.”

“Did you get a good look at it?”Zhang Heng asked.

“Unfortunately, I only caught a glimpse of it. I didn’t get a good look at it, but there’s no doubt that the thing inside is not a human.”

Even without the [ vow ring ] , Zhang Heng could tell that the old shaman was not telling the truth. When he connected the dots with the look that Kuna had given him earlier, Zhang Heng guessed that the Thing Kuna was looking at in the well was most likely related to him, however, Kuna chose to hide it. Of course, this would not benefit the old shaman, but it would help the rest of the tribe not turn against Zhang Heng.

It was still fine for Alicia. After all, Zhang Heng had saved her life before. However, if the others knew that the evil spirit in the well had his face, even if kuna came forward to explain that the two of them were not related.., it was likely that the Inuit people in the tribe would also be wary of him. Furthermore, what happened here would not only stay here, but also spread among the Inuit people very quickly, it would also become more difficult for him to move around on this ice field.

“What happened after that?”Alesia asked.

“Gumok was afraid of the well, but when he saw that I was being bullied, he bolstered his courage and rushed into the well. I knew that he was no match for the thing in the well, so I asked him to come back,”Kuna said.

It must have happened at that time when she said, “Gumok, come back!”.

“Did you see anything else?”Alicia continued to ask.

“No.”The old shaman shook his head.

The others might not have thought much of it, but Alethea was stunned when she heard that, because when she was downstairs, she clearly heard a sentence, “No, no! This is not the future! You Can’t… destroy all of this!”But Kuna did not mention that at all.

If it was Olai’s straightforward temperament, he would have asked the teacher if she had forgotten something. But Alethea did not say that, she just nodded, “I’ll go to the Doctor first to help you reattach your broken bone.”

“There’s no need to rush this,”Kuna said. “I want to talk to Zhang Heng.”After a pause, she added, “Alone.”

“Okay, then we’ll go out first.”Alicia and Olai looked at each other and said.

Song Jia, on the other hand, was a little embarrassed. After she translated the sentence, she asked kuna, “What about me? Should I Stay?”

“Thank you, son. You can go out first. I have a way to communicate with him,”Kunayu said gently.
