A golden text notification appeared the next instant.
Do you want to absorb this lord's talent sphere (Yellow gold-tier)?
"Yes!"
He replied.
As soon as he finished speaking, the Yellow gold-tier lord talent sphere immediately turned into countless silver light spots and surged into his glabella.
Zhou Zhou closed his eyes.
Couple of seconds later, he reopened his eyes.
Wasting no time, he immediately opened his lord's personal information.
His lord talent column had already been updated!
[Lord Talent: 100% Drop Rate (Legendary-tier), Gnome Alchemy Workshop (Green bronze-tier), Monster Ranch (White silver-tier), Phantom Cage (Black iron-tier), Child of Space and Time (Black iron-tier), The Ultimate Collector (Diamond-Tier), Dreamland (Yellow gold-tier)]
"The seventh lord talent!"
A smile appeared on Zhou Zhou's face.
Then, he opened the details of the talent.
[Lord Talent: Dreamland (Yellow gold-tier)]
[Dreamland: Your territory has been chosen by the newly birthed Dreamland Tower]
[Talent Effect: You and your subjects can utilize the dreamland to experience what you desire]
[Hint 1: Users can only stay in the dreamland for 4 hours]
[Hint 2: Users are solely responsible for whatever dream you experience]
[Hint 3: Whatever you learnt and felt in the dreamland will have an effect in reality. Be careful]
Zhou Zhou was deep in thought.
Utilizing the dreamland isn't that safe for us.
We might encounter something deadly if we're either careless or unlucky.
The effect of dreamland might be its safety mechanism.
I guess as long as we don't desire death or harm towards ourselves, there shouldn't be any issue.
"Wait, what would happen if someone was mentally manipulated to desire something safe?"
"I will have a discussion with the soldiers owning the mental manipulation talent."
He concluded his thoughts.
Stepping out of his lord courtyard, he saw a couple of his subjects looking above his courtyard.
Turning behind, he saw a high tower over 470m in height.
"F8ck!"
Zhou Zhou unconsciously uttered after seeing the size of the building.
"My lord, what building is this?"
Hui Teng asked as he came beside Zhou Zhou.
Explaining the effect of the dreamland tower to his vice, as well as the hints given, Zhou Zhou began walking towards the monument.
"My lord, hold on for a moment."
"I should check it out first before you do."
Hui Teng quickly chased after Zhou Zhou.
"I know what I desire, I won't get hurt."
Zhou Zhou answered without slowing down.
"Then, I will go with you."
Hui Teng said as he caught up with his lord.
"Your choice."
Zhou Zhou said as he continued moving towards the 470m high tower.
Entering the tower, he was surprised to find himself inside an elevator.
"The Supreme Will is definitely behind its creation."
He thought before having a notification in front of his face.
[Hint: Floor 1 - Floor 10 @ 15 minutes | Floor 11 - Floor 20 @ 30 minutes | Floor 21 - Floor 30 @ 45 minutes]
[Hint: Floor 31 - Floor 40 @ 1 hour | Floor 41 - Floor 50 @ 1 hour 30 minutes | Floor 51 - Floor 60 @ 2 hours]
[Hint: Floor 61 - Floor 70 @ 2 hour 30 minutes | Floor 71 - Floor 80 @ 3 hours | Floor 81 - Floor 100 @ 4 hours]
Seeing the same notification, Hui Teng said.
"For safety reasons, we should use one of the first 10 floors."
"Alright."
Accepting Hui Teng's suggestion, Zhou Zhou inputted the number for the 1st floor.
With its door open, the spawns of space and time stepped into the dreamland.
"It's really a dreamland."
Zhou Zhou muttered after seeing the rows of beds across the floor.
"They're 80 of them."
Hui Teng counted in a couple of seconds.
Choosing one of the beds, the lord and his vice went to sleep.
Suddenly finding himself in a battlefield with 10 fighters decimating millions of opponents, Zhou Zhou knew this was his dream.
"It seems becoming the lord of all races isn't even what I truly desire."
He muttered as he continued watching the battle while 2 warriors stood beside him.
One of the fighters created a thunderstorm that rained thousands of lightning at the opponents.
Another created fissures in the space around the opponents that swallowed them into unending darkness.
One was a dragon that breaths fire and lava, incinerating thousands in an instant.
"Kill them all!"
Zhou Zhou uttered with a smile.
Suddenly, his smiling face became terrified.
"Was this why the talent's hint told me to be careful?"
"Will I forget myself and become so confident to the level of arrogance because I believed my soldiers could destroy whosoever stands in my way?"
"Terrifying."
He muttered before getting an idea due to his self-realization.
"If we can experience whatever occurred in the dreamland, will my soldiers experiencing themselves advancing their skills help them in truly acquiring the next tier of skills in reality?"
The more Zhou Zhou spent thinking about it, the more it made sense to him.
"I should try... doing that."
Stopping his words after finding himself lying on the bed, he completed it after guessing that his 15mins might've been used up.
"Almost. I was almost lost"
Hui Teng's eyes were filled with fear as he mumbled inaudibly.
He couldn't believe his desire when he truly experienced it.
"How dare I desire my lord to be grateful to me for becoming his strongest warrior?"
"How can I have such a desire?"
He stared frightening at the space in front of him.
Tap!
Patting Hui Teng's back, Zhou Zhou said.
"Snap out of it."
"That wasn't you, even though that was your desire."
Looking up at Zhou Zhou, Hui Teng held back his tears as he repeatedly nodded his head.
Telling Hui Teng about his idea on how to take advantage of the dreamland for the advancement of their skills, Zhou Zhou also told him about the difficulty involved.
"If you can't control your actions at all time, then it will be a failure."
"It's difficult."
Hui Teng shook his head as he remembered his state in the dream.
"That's why we have to practice. Inform everyone about it."
"If no one is successful, I have another idea."
Zhou Zhou said as the both of them arrived in front of his lord's courtyard.
"What idea, my lord?"
Hui Teng asked.
"Using mental manipulation to give one the desire to advance their skills."
Zhou Zhou answered.
"That's genius."
Hui Teng said after thinking about it.
"You can leave now."
Zhou Zhou said to Hui Teng.
"Yes, my lord."
Hui Teng bowed before leaving to inform the subjects of the city.
