Chapter 2018: 2018
“Mister Dream, what do you require?” Han Sen didn’t think that the creature’s smile was very nice .
Dream Beast did not say anything, but his eyes flashed . Han Sen felt a power come upon him, and his heavy body started to fly .
Splash!
Han Sen flew over the lake and dropped into it .
Normally, falling into a lake was no big deal . But now, his body was so heavy that he could not get away from the water . He couldn’t even float .
Dream Beast approached Han Sen’s struggling form and laughed . “Stop pretending . I know you can survive in the water . There is a type of gemstone beneath the sand . It is my food . You can go down there and get me some . I require ten of them a day . If you don’t fill the quota, I will give you a nightmare . ”
“And by the way, I am fond of cleanliness . Some would say too much . So, do not make the water dirty . If you do that, I will give you one hundred nightmares,” Dream Beast said .
Han Sen, upon hearing all that, stopped pretending to struggle . He immediately dove down into the water .
He could breathe underwater, but he just wanted to earn some sympathy points first . Unfortunately, the act didn’t work on Dream Beast .
The Dream Lake was clean, and you could see down to the bottom . Han Sen guessed it must have been ten meters deep .
Strangely, though, Han Sen did not see any other creatures in the water . There weren’t even any plants like seaweed . The whole lake was clean like a well-polished gemstone . There was not a single speck of dust, which was quite scary .
Han Sen’s body reached the bottom, and his feet touched the sand . The sand followed the waves, rising like mist .
“This is your first day, so I’m only giving you a warning . If you kick up any sand again, straight into the dreamscape you go . ” Dream Beast’s voice boomed into Han Sen’s ears .
“If you don’t let me stand on the sand, how am I supposed to find your gemstones?” Han Sen asked quickly .
“That is your problem, not mine . I am merely following the rules,” Dream Beast said as if it was ordinary .
Han Sen knew there was no point resisting, so he pulled his legs off the bottom of the lake . He remained afloat, afraid of moving the sand with his body . But the sand was very light . The slightest wave would make the sand rise like mist, and the water would become dirty-looking .
Han Sen tried his best to keep any more body parts from touching the sand, and that was how he avoided making the sand rise again .
Normally, it would not have been difficult to maintain this position, but Han Sen still had Sky Heart Lock clamping down on him . Beneath that pressure, holding his position was difficult . It brought his body pain .
Han Sen was using all kinds of strength to support his body; otherwise, he’d have already been down against the bottom of the lake .
But keeping that position was a challenge . Han Sen looked around the lake, and the sand was very flat . There was no mark or disturbance, and neither were there any convenient rocks .
Han Sen looked around for a while, but there did not seem to be any gemstones .
According to what Dream Beast said, the gemstones were supposed to reside beneath the sand . So, he’d have to collect the gemstones out of the sand .
But Han Sen did not know where exactly beneath the sand a gemstone might lie . He used his Dongxuan Aura to scan the lakebed, but there was nothing to be seen .
“At least today I can break the rules . ” Han Sen used his strength to dig through the sand, and after digging for a while, he found a clean, orb-sized gemstone that looked like a diamond .
“Mister Dream, is this what you are looking for?” Han Sen asked, holding up the gemstone .
“Yes . I eat ten a day . If you miss one, you’ll have nightmares forever . Plus, you deliberately destroyed the bed of sand . I will punish you now by making you work for me for another month . ” Dream Beast’s voice came out of nowhere .
Han Sen felt depressed, but it was his own fault for not abiding by the rules in someone else’s abode .
The sand did indeed harbor gemstones, but they were a rare find . Detecting the gemstones without touching the sand was very hard .
But that couldn’t stop Han Sen . Han Sen had learned a gentle skill from Moon Wheel King and the Narrow Moon Knife . He could cast power into water without causing a ripple . It would not be too difficult to keep the sand still, then .
Han Sen cast his gentle Moon skill and looked through the sand carefully, searching for a gemstone .
His body was suppressed by Sky Heart Lock . He had to keep his head down and his feet up, and he had to use the gentlest power he could to retrieve the gemstones . He was in the lake for a whole ten hours straight, fetching the gemstones .
When he came back out of the lake, he did not want to move .
You are better than I thought . It looks like if I want to eat more, it should be fine . ” Dream Beast was resting beneath a tree . He smiled at Han Sen casually .
Han Sen did not even have the strength to complain . He just lay in the grass near the lake, his body too sore to move .
He felt so soft, as if his body was devoid of bones .
The sad life of Han Sen started on that day . Every day, he spent most of his time under the surface of the lake in pursuit of gemstones . Whenever he had time remaining to himself, he rested . He did not have time to practice .
Han Sen did not know why the leader wanted him to be here, but it was related to Yisha . Therefore, it shouldn’t have been too harmful .
And the leader had used his own energy to give Han Sen two Sky Heart Locks . If he wanted to harm Han Sen, he wouldn’t have had to make such an effort .
Han Sen worked hard in the lake . Dream Beast still never grew to like him, though . If he got up late, Dream Beast would go and kick him into the water .
And the sick Dream Beast would always say how great fresh gemstones were . Han Sen couldn’t get any more than ten to save for the next day .
“When I become deified and stronger than you, I will make you search for the gemstones . I will tie your legs up and make you scour the sand with your own tongue,” Han Sen thought angrily to himself .
“Good thinking . From today on, you will use your own tongue to search for the gemstones . But if your tongue touches a gemstone, I will cut it off,” Dream Beast’s toneless voice said right beside Han Sen .
Han Sen was struck with another chill . He felt hopeless, and he thought, “Sh*t! He can read minds?”
