Chapter 2044
The Sandman was surprised at Mephisto's sobriety, but at the same time he secretly felt sorry... In fact, as the masters of dimensions, they rarely have real fools. Even Dormammu, who looks reckless and violent, is not lacking in wisdom. It's just that the thinking of the masters of dimensions is different from that of ordinary people, and their concepts of failure and time are also different from those of ordinary people.
Dormammu has invaded the Earth countless times, but he has failed. But has he really lost anything?
The answer is no.
No matter how many times he died, it didn't really matter to him. His limit was there anyway, so no matter how much power he accumulated, it was useless. It was better to consume it, since there was no loss anyway, but once he succeeded, the benefits would be huge.
Sandman could understand Mephisto's thoughts, but unfortunately it did not meet his interests.
The imprisonment of the Sleep Demon was definitely not something that could be done by a human mystic. In fact, this was all a conspiracy. He was tricked.
Sandman was born in the dream of the first creature in the universe, and his brothers and sisters were born at almost the same time.
They are similar to gods, but they are different from the gods that ordinary people understand. They are by-products of the birth of cosmic life, but not essential.
There were five demons born at about the same time as the Sleep Demon.
They are:
Fate, whose real name is Portmos, is blind and wears a brown robe. He holds the Book of Fate handcuffed to him. The book contains everything about the past and the future. Fate is calm and indifferent. He knows everything, but he will not deliberately interfere with the development of things, because everything has a destiny. The realm of Fate is a maze garden with countless forks in countless realities. Only Fate knows where each road leads.
Death, death is the end of everything. When the first life died, she was born. Death is neither cruel nor merciful, but it respects every life. Death may be the most powerful among the brothers and sisters. (It is different from the death of the five gods, so don't confuse them)
Desire, whose real name is Ephisnir, is the leader of the desires of all living things, and the force that keeps everything in the universe together. For a being with Desire, he is everything. There is no description that can describe the beauty of Desire. Desire can be male or female, and anyone who sees him at first sight will fall in love with him. No one can know Desire's thoughts. He lives in a huge human-shaped statue, whose true size cannot be estimated. Desire once became the incarnation of dreams to help him save creation, but later lost the relevant memory due to the world reset.
Despair, Ephinoa. When the fate of thousands of creatures is at odds and they are lost and desperate, she is the leader. Despair looks like an ugly and short woman. In her domain, there are countless mirrors of various kinds, through which she can see people or things in reality. Despair often likes to scratch her body with a ring with a hook, especially when she is in pain.
Delirium, whose real name is Menia, is the definer of the rules of everything and the leader of all living things' madness. She is also the youngest of the brothers and sisters. She is so crazy that she even knows things that fate doesn't know. No one knows what the crazy eyes can see. Her domain has been closed and is filled with all kinds of irregular things.
Although they are brothers and sisters, their relationship is actually very different from that of brothers and sisters in the conventional sense. You can say that they are actually not related at all, but they do have some special connections, and their relationship is not very harmonious. For example, fate ignores everyone and always hides in its own area, never seeing anyone. Even Dream, that is, the sleep demon, has forgotten when he last saw him.
Not to mention delirium, she had gone crazy a long time ago.
Except for Death and Sandman, whose relationship is acceptable, the rest... are basically mortal enemies.
For example, Desire always believed that as long as he devoured other people, he would become complete and become the supreme being.
Although Sandman thinks this is nonsense.
But Desire couldn't help but believe in it, so he kept trying to find ways to deal with his other brothers and sisters. Fate... was too mysterious. Desire couldn't handle it, and death was too powerful, so Desire couldn't do anything about it. As for delirium... it goes without saying that Desire himself couldn't figure out what delirium was.
Then all that is left is despair and dreams.
Despair is just like what she represents, she is confused and desperate, so she is very easy to be bewitched and is the easiest to deal with. Desire, facing such a tool, intends to keep her for the end... Despair is a very difficult guy, decadent, negative and confused, full of hatred for everything, but without courage. After all, how can despair have courage? But Desire can give her these things, so Despair listens to Desire.
She became desire's best helper.
Now all that was left was the dream—the sleep demon.
So many, many years ago, despair and desire targeted the demon of sleep.
Of course, for these demon gods, time has no meaning. They have plenty of time.
So they were very patient, and they really waited for their chance.
Kill with one blow.
They couldn't kill the Sandman, but they could imprison him and then devour his domain, and then the Sandman would be doomed.
This is true.
During the days when Sandman was imprisoned, desire and despair invaded the nightmare dimension, causing it to become extremely dilapidated and countless nightmares were killed.
The Sleeper finally got rid of his captivity and returned to his own territory... He was almost mad to death, damn, these two bastards were so ruthless.
But Sleepyhead didn't have any better solution.
The destruction of the dimension means that the power of the sleeper has decreased. He needs to find a way to regain his power.
The three most important treasures must be taken back.
They are the mask, ruby and sandbag.
Yes, that’s the name, there’s no fancy name for it. After all, this thing was made by the Sleepman for himself, so he doesn’t need to use any fancy words to praise it.
A bag of sand: This bag of sand is a tool used by the Sandman to make people fall asleep. In Western legends, throwing sand into children's eyes can make them fall asleep and bring them to dreamland.
Mask: The mask is a tool used by Sandman to hide his true identity. In the story, Sandman usually appears as an ordinary person, and the mask is the key to his hiding his true identity.
Ruby: Ruby has a powerful power that can affect the dream world. The holder of the ruby can interfere with reality and dreams through the power of the gem.
Although the introduction is simple, each one is very powerful.
For example, the mask can allow the Sandman to hide himself, and no one can see through his identity. It is definitely a top-notch weapon for running away and assassination.
A bag of sand can pull people into a dream. Once in a dream, it is the world of sleep.
As for rubies, there is no need to say more.
It can interfere with reality and dreams, it is simply a weakened version of the reality gem!
These three treasures were taken away by humans when he was imprisoned.
If it were in the past, it would not be a big deal for the Sandman to enter the Earth.
But now it's no longer possible, his power has decreased, his treasure has been taken away, and he has no way to sneak into the earth. That's why he found Lao Mo, hoping to get a ride and find the treasure.
The Sleep Demon is the one who has the most feelings for the Earth among all the demons. He does have some thoughts about the Earth, but they are relatively gentle and he has no intention of destroying the world. He actually likes the dreams of Earthlings.
There is no way. Except for Earth, people in other worlds are controlled by true destiny, even their dreams are controlled by it. The Sleepyhead doesn't like such regulated things. If you can't even dream freely, then what's the point of dreaming?
They even gave dreams many other meanings.
For example, dreams can predict the future, predict good or bad luck, and can even be a platform for communication between gods and humans...but damn, dreams just don’t have the original meaning.
This thing is a bit like the ancient people's understanding of dreams. The mysterious color of dreams is fully reflected in ancient civilizations. The ancient Egyptians believed that dreams were revelations from the gods. They believed that dreams could predict the future and even communicate directly with the gods. As an important Egyptian document, the Dream Book records in detail the symbolic meanings of various dreams. The symbols, scenes and characters in dreams are all regarded as the medium for the gods to convey information. In ancient Greece, dreams were also given sacred meanings. Morpheus, the god of dreams in Greek mythology, is the god in charge of dreams. He can change into various forms, enter people's dreams, and convey the will of God. In the works of ancient Greek literary masters such as Herodotus and Homer, dreams frequently appear and become an important element of narrative. In his work On Dreams, Aristotle first tried to explain dreams from the perspective of natural science, believing that dreams are the continuation and reflection of human daily experience. In Eastern culture, dreams are also given profound philosophical and religious significance. The ancient Chinese book "The Interpretation of Dreams by Zhou Gong" is a systematic book on dream analysis, which records in detail the symbolic meanings and predictions of various dreams. In Chinese culture, dreams are not only a manifestation of personal psychological activities, but also a manifestation of the harmony between heaven, earth and man. In Taoism and Buddhism, dreams are regarded as an important way to practice and attain enlightenment, and the revelations in dreams are considered to be the guidance of gods or Buddha. In India, dreams are also regarded as the journey of the soul. The dream analysis in the Hindu classic "Vedas" believes that dreams are the experience of the soul at different levels. The scenes and characters in dreams are regarded as the reflection of the soul at different levels, and the revelations in dreams are considered to be the guidance of gods.
These things may seem excessive on Earth, but in many civilizations in the universe, the meaning of dreams is more serious and exaggerated than what is mentioned above.
But on Earth today, dreams don't have so many messy meanings. With the development of science, the analysis of dreams has gradually shifted from the mysterious fields of religion and philosophy to scientific exploration. Freud is the founder of modern dream analysis. In "The Interpretation of Dreams", he proposed that dreams are the expression of the subconscious and the embodiment of the desires and conflicts deep in the human heart. Freud believed that the symbolic symbols in dreams are the language of the subconscious. By analyzing these symbols, the desires and conflicts hidden deep in the human heart can be revealed. Jung further developed Freud's theory and proposed the concept of collective unconsciousness. He believed that dreams are not only the expression of personal subconsciousness, but also the embodiment of the collective unconsciousness of mankind. The symbolic symbols in dreams not only reflect the inner world of individuals, but also the embodiment of common human experience and collective memory. Jung's dream analysis method emphasizes the symbolic symbols and archetypes in dreams. By analyzing these symbols and archetypes, the deep structure of the collective unconsciousness of mankind can be revealed. The development of modern neuroscience provides a new perspective for the analysis of dreams. Through techniques such as electroencephalography and functional magnetic resonance imaging, scientists are able to observe brain activity when dreams occur. Studies have found that dreams mainly occur during the rapid eye movement (REM) sleep stage, during which brain activity is similar to that when awake, but the body is paralyzed and unable to move. Neuroscientists believe that dreams are a byproduct of the brain's process of organizing and processing information. During sleep, the brain reorganizes and integrates daytime experiences and memories, and the random neural activity generated in this process is integrated into various dreams by the brain. The scenes and characters in dreams are random combinations generated by the brain in the process of integrating information. By analyzing these scenes and characters, the laws and mechanisms of the brain in the process of integrating information can be revealed.
The meaning of dreams is both psychological and physiological. From a psychological perspective, dreams are a reflection of the inner world of human beings and an expression of the subconscious. Through the analysis of dreams, we can reveal the desires, conflicts and emotions deep in the human heart. The symbols and archetypes in dreams not only reflect the inner world of individuals, but also the embodiment of the collective unconsciousness of human beings. From a physiological perspective, dreams are a by-product of the brain in the process of sorting and processing information. Through the study of dreams, we can reveal the laws and mechanisms of the brain in the process of integrating information. The random neural activities and scene combinations in dreams reflect the complexity and diversity of the brain in the process of information processing.
Of course, these things also seem boring to Sandman.
Dreams are unrestrained imagination. Everyone’s dreams are colorful and are the most interesting things.
At least the dreams of people on Earth are freer than those in other worlds.
So he wanted to take the Earth into his possession. Of course, it didn’t matter if he failed. He often wandered around the Earth.
In fact, except for the beginning, Kamar-Taj basically let the Sandman do whatever he wanted. This guy was harmless anyway, and the biggest harm he caused was killing a few people... Well, although this guy was free and unrestrained, he would also kill people. This guy even had a love relationship on Earth.
All in all, he's a pretty easy-going demon.
Of course, compared to himself, he doesn't really mind the Earth being occupied, even if it's by someone else.
However, this plan seems to have been stuck at the very beginning.
The Mexicans won’t be fooled!
