The twelfth level of dreams (the last level near Nightmare Town).
The complexity of this layer is the maximum, and the internal passage of the power station is still used as the base prototype.
The physical structure of the space is completely chaotic. Various Penrose stairs and arbitrary doors connect the interactive spaces in series.
An ordinary team would quickly get lost in it, and it would take at least several days or even a week to decipher it.
But the special team that came here only stayed for twenty minutes to observe and think about the spatial structure before analyzing the completely correct dream route.
The structural analysis was completed by the so-called joint double-faced team - Mako and Martin. To be more precise, it was completed by "back-Mako". So far, "front-Martin" has never been truly revealed.
Marco and Martin are ranked fourth in the circle of prophets, after Principal Deslin of A, Yuri of Gethsemane, and Enio Vargas, an old man who is good at listening to the inner thoughts of others.
But he is a rare two-way prophet who has both foresight and strength.
Currently, he is the captain of this sharp knife team.
However, the so-called captain only means that he is the decision maker within the team. The division of labor within the entire team is extremely clear, and each member, including death row prisoners, has his or her own duties.
Any one of them alone is a unique person in the organization.
The team size is 5+1.
1. The prophets, Marco and Martin, walked in the front, responsible for deciphering the dream space and leading the way.
Symptom: Dissociative Identity Disorder
2. The second person walking in the team is the "death row prisoner" of this team. He caused the fake moon incident and used living people to make "Twilight Silver Liquid" to create Doctor McCoy.
Symptom: Psoriatic Arthritis
The projection image in his dream was an old man with a short stature, a round head and sparse hair, wearing a pair of thick glasses that were almost embedded in his eye sockets.
There were a lot of silver spots on the surface of his skin, which was related to his own illness and his research on the twilight silver liquid.
His crimes mainly stemmed from his almost insane research on secret medicines. In terms of medical skills alone, he would be among the top ten doctors.
Before the truth came to light, some people referred to him as the Sun and Moon Divine Doctor together with Dean Dis from Wenholm.
Now, the sun has fallen and the moon appears to be rotten.
When his consciousness was projected into the dream space and he learned from his teammates that he might be freed, he immediately showed a strong willingness to cooperate.
He said that if anyone in the team was injured, he could quickly complete the regeneration of limbs, organs, etc.
Even if the team needs additional combat power, he will switch to combat stance and be able to stand up at the first moment.
He wanted freedom so much that he didn't care even if his brain was just placed inside a prosthetic body like that of an ordinary person. He would be satisfied as long as he could conduct drug research.
Unlike other death row inmates in the team, who were either shackled or gagged, Dr. McCoff appeared to be completely free and not equipped with any restrictive equipment.
However, he was required to follow the prophet closely, no more than two meters away in non-combat situations, and was watched by "Front Martin" the entire time while exploring the dream.
3. The team member walking in the third position gives people a very strange feeling. His body is full of wrinkles, just like the wrinkles left on the body of an overweight obese person after successfully losing fat in a short period of time.
If it weren't for the restrictions of his pajamas, the skin on his body would hang down like a skirt.
Even though his body was covered by his pajamas, his face still had serious excess wrinkles.
The drooping eyelids almost cover the eyes, and the facial skin is stacked in three layers, hanging under the cheeks.
His identity is also very special. Except for the team members and senior management of the organization, many people do not know him.
His personal file was classified as top secret, and even the team members only knew of his expired identity, a priest servant in the original God Pi's official residence. For some reason, he was transferred from the official residence and secretly carried out various activities in the organization. Few people knew what he did.
Even a silver demon like Dr. Mycroft would keep an eye on what was happening behind him because of the mysterious man walking behind him.
disease:
4. A woman with red hair and a heat radiating from her body, floating in the air like flames. She has a stern face like a principal. Anyone who sees her would want to avoid her and absolutely would not want to provoke her.
The clothes she was wearing were also heat-resistant pajamas specially made by the power station, and the overall color was dark red.
It is related to the purge forces in the organization that are responsible for suppressing malicious incidents and cleaning up areas covered by serious plagues.
Rosemary Tahan, deputy captain of the purge force, was born in Gethsemane.
Disease type: "Thermoplegia"
5. The fifth member walking is different from the others. His pajamas only cover no more than 15% of his body, while the other part is exposed, showing a perfect mechanical prosthesis.
Kimberly Cabrera, deputy director of the Power Plant Research Institute, is the first person to undergo cyborgization and also the first man to introduce cyborgization into the thinking level.
Because of this, his projection in dreams still maintains a mechanical prosthesis.
He best understood the ladder theory given by Reagan. Because of his existence, the team was able to create ladders stably and quickly, and cooperate with the prophet's exploration to achieve rapid penetration.
Moreover, he can also perform maximum prosthetic transformation in his dreams.
Symptoms: "Chronic Methyl-Mercury Poisoning"
6. He is also the last person in the team and stays at the end of the team.
Compared to the death row inmate, Dr. McCaugh, some people in the team care more about his existence. To some extent, he can be defined as a "death row inmate". He is forcibly retained by some people in power only because the organization values his strength.
After the organization's comprehensive strength assessment, it was listed as a "special combat force" to be used to deal with catastrophic events that may lead to the organization's demise.
Hogeni Zed
Symptom: Fibromyalgia syndrome
Zed crawled at the end the entire time. He had long since discarded his pajamas and turned his skin into a tactile feedback device.
Feel the nightmare, quickly adapt to it all, and even have a feeling of being part of it.
After an hour of exploration, the team reached a blocked passage through a reversed Penrose staircase.
All staff stood in front of the dead end, and Deputy Director Kimberly extended a mechanical hand to the wall.
A liquid metal similar to mercury immediately spread out, quickly creating the "Nightmare Stairs".
This time it was no longer in the shape of stairs, but a metal door.
Kimberly made eye contact with the prophet and pushed the door open... The closed scene that had been there all along completely disappeared, and everyone appeared on a wide road.
The sound of insects chirping could be heard from the two-meter-high grass on both sides of the road.
The old street lamps installed a hundred meters apart remain on all the time, providing limited lighting in the dark night.
Looking forward along the street, the view about two hundred meters ahead will be completely blocked by thick fog. In addition, you can also see a conspicuous billboard made of a huge wooden board on the side of the road.
There is a huge smiling face drawn on it with the slogan "Welcome to Nightmare Town"
"Have we finally reached the nightmare center? Everyone, please cheer up... We should soon encounter a real nightmare crisis in the town ahead."
Marco and Martin were still leading the way, walking backwards.
As they approached the town, the fog became thicker and thicker, and the Eye of Nightmare hidden in the darkness was quietly spying on these outsiders.
